A76101	The arrovv of the Almighty shot out of the creatures bowe, against the uncalled ministers in England. Or, A messages sent to them to forewarn them of their determined destruction, before it fall upon them. Likewise here is shewed, from whence they had their calling into the ministery; and how all people have been decieved by them. Here is also a glass wherein all formalists may see their own deformity, and so seek after that which is the substance, wherein all their deformity shall be done away. Likewise here is opened the mystery of the Lords Supper, and the mystery in Baptism; and how there is a threefold Baptism, having relation to the three fold name of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; with other truths very needful to be known. All of them being laid down in as brief a manner as possiblemay be, for the use and instruction of the Presbyterians, Independants, and Anabaptists, so called; or for the good of all others who have a minde to seek God in a right way; and in the conclusion, a word to the free-gracians.

every_o thing_n which_o keep_v it_o back_o from_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o its_o life_n and_o in_o this_o manner_n the_o axe_n be_v lay_v to_o the_o root_n of_o the_o tree_n viz._n the_o sharp_a cut_a part_n or_o the_o law_n in_o its_o inward_a and_o spiritual_a requiring_n whereby_o the_o bowl_n of_o sin_n become_v cut_v down_o viz._n the_o strength_n of_o desire_n love_n care_n or_o fear_v of_o or_o to_o any_o thing_n below_o the_o love_n and_o life_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n become_v cut_v down_o and_o cast_v into_o the_o fire_n viz._n into_o the_o anger_n of_o god_n by_o which_o they_o become_v burn_v and_o consume_v but_o yet_o it_o can_v be_v true_o say_v that_o anger_n be_v in_o god_n whereby_o he_o can_v be_v make_v to_o change_v or_o to_o suffer_v for_o anger_n and_o love_n be_v both_o the_o same_o in_o the_o essence_n of_o god_n and_o that_o which_o be_v love_n in_o god_n the_o same_o be_v anger_n in_o we_o and_o it_o be_v the_o love_n of_o god_n that_o make_v we_o feel_v his_o anger_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o sin_n that_o the_o love_n meet_v with_o in_o we_o and_o so_o by_o reason_n of_o that_o love_n of_o god_n in_o we_o and_o that_o sin_n it_o meet_v with_o in_o we_o the_o suffering_n be_v produce_v which_o we_o feel_v and_o that_o suffering_n be_v call_v the_o anger_n of_o god_n and_o thus_o we_o be_v right_o to_o judge_v of_o the_o anger_n of_o god_n but_o now_o the_o soul_n be_v bring_v into_o this_o suffer_a way_n or_o plunge_a condition_n under_o the_o baptism_n of_o john_n or_o spiritual_a cut_n of_o the_o law_n wherein_o the_o abomination_n that_o make_v desolate_a begin_v to_o appear_v then_o grow_v such_o a_o soul_n to_o sink_v down_o into_o great_a humility_n and_o in_o patience_n wait_v for_o the_o appear_v of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n who_o must_v in_o the_o manifest_v of_o his_o name_n restore_v peace_n and_o give_v comfort_n and_o deliver_v the_o soul_n out_o of_o that_o great_a desolation_n make_v in_o it_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o great_a abomination_n and_o so_o it_o be_v that_o when_o the_o soul_n be_v right_o prepare_v by_o the_o second_o baptism_n of_o john_n then_o in_o his_o own_o time_n and_o place_n the_o name_n of_o the_o son_n become_v manifest_v in_o that_o soul_n and_o the_o lord_n who_o it_o have_v seek_v do_v come_v into_o his_o temple_n mal._n 3.2_o and_o then_o it_o be_v that_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o name_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n become_v powerful_a in_o deliver_v the_o soul_n out_o of_o that_o desolate_a wilderness_n from_o among_o the_o enemy_n that_o it_o find_v there_o and_o those_o lust_n that_o lead_v it_o captive_n be_v become_v captive_v and_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n be_v dissipate_v and_o the_o garment_n of_o mourning_n be_v cast_v off_o and_o the_o soul_n clothe_v in_o the_o garment_n of_o praise_n and_o then_o the_o soul_n can_v rejoice_v and_o right_o sing_v haleluia_o to_o he_o that_o have_v do_v these_o thing_n for_o it_o and_o thus_o it_o be_v that_o god_n in_o the_o second_o appearance_n in_o the_o distinct_a property_n become_v to_o be_v know_v in_o a_o more_o sweet_a and_o love_v and_o peaceable_a manner_n than_o he_o be_v know_v in_o the_o first_o name_n before_o the_o godhead_n have_v divide_v itself_o as_o be_v before_o say_v and_o thus_o moses_n in_o the_o first_o dispensation_n under_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n by_o his_o baptism_n reach_v out_o the_o soul_n to_o john_n and_z john_n in_o the_o second_o dispensation_n lead_v out_o the_o soul_n to_o christ_n and_o so_o the_o soul_n can_v true_o witness_v the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n i_o will_v have_v enlarge_v more_o upon_o the_o baptism_n of_o john_n but_o that_o i_o have_v already_o speak_v something_o thereof_o in_o a_o little_a treatise_n call_v the_o anti-god_n with_o his_o threefold_a attribute_n discover_v in_o the_o outside_n religious_a man_n and_o in_o that_o you_o may_v see_v something_o which_o be_v needful_a to_o be_v know_v the_o which_o i_o have_v omit_v here_o but_o now_o i_o proceed_v and_o speak_v a_o word_n of_o the_o three_o baptism_n viz._n the_o baptism_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o be_v more_o excellent_a than_o the_o other_o two_o former_a because_o of_o its_o time_n operation_n and_o effect_n of_o which_o i_o shall_v speak_v hereafter_o and_o this_o baptism_n be_v witness_v by_o john_n baptist_n himself_o when_o he_o give_v testimony_n of_o christ_n who_o be_v to_o be_v the_o minister_n of_o this_o baptism_n and_o tell_v the_o people_n that_o he_o that_o be_v to_o come_v
