A30025 A short view of the Antinomian errours with a briefe and plaine answer to them, as the heads of them lye in order in the next page of this book : being a nest of cursed errors hatched by hereticks, fed and nourished by their proselites : being taken as they were flying abroad were brought as the eagle doth her young ones to see if they could endure to looke upon the sun-beams of truth with fixed eyes, the which they could not : were presently adjudged to be a bastard brood, and their necks chopt off, and their carkasses throwne to the dunghill. Bakewell, Thomas, b. 1618 or 19. 1643 (1643) Wing B537; ESTC R38704 43,620 40

keep_v all_o god_n commandment_n and_o yield_v universal_a obedience_n thereto_o and_o to_o hate_v all_o sin_n the_o antinomean_n say_v that_o they_o be_v bewitch_v that_o hold_v a_o man_n can_v be_v

too_o it_o be_v no_o hard_a condition_n to_o put_v it_o out_o to_o receive_v so_o great_a a_o benefit_n he_o say_v for_o god_n to_o put_v we_o upon_o such_o a_o work_n supernatural_a as_o faith_n be_v

whatever_o he_o think_v when_o god_n have_v give_v they_o faith_n they_o must_v use_v it_o and_o can_v do_v otherwise_o they_o find_v so_o much_o profit_n and_o comfort_n by_o imply_v that_o talent_n of_o faith_n he_o say_v to_o say_v faith_n be_v a_o condition_n without_o which_o we_o can_v be_v save_v do_v perplex_v the_o conscience_n and_o deny_v our_o mercy_n and_o resist_v the_o spirit_n of_o
