A38042	Socinianism unmask'd a discourse shewing the unreasonableness of a late writer's opinion concerning the necessity of only one article of Christian faith, and of his other assertions in his late book, entituled, The reasonableness of Christianity as deliver'd in the Scriptures, and in his vindication of it : with a brief reply to another (professed) Socinian writer / by John Edwards ...

time_n it_o be_v no_o doubt_n use_v the_o same_o discipline_n towards_o the_o latter_a i._n e._n lop_v off_o some_o of_o the_o precept_n of_o the_o decalogue_n and_o diminish_v that_o form_n and_o

necessary_o to_o be_v assent_v to_o he_o may_v enjoy_v his_o confident_a humour_n but_o it_o be_v to_o be_v hope_v that_o there_o be_v not_o any_o considerable_a number_n of_o man_n in_o the_o world_n that_o will_v admit_v of_o such_o a_o unaccountable_a paradox_n and_o forfeit_v their_o reason_n mere_o to_o please_v their_o fancy_n but_o because_o i_o design_v these_o paper_n for_o the_o satisfy_n of_o the_o reader_n doubt_n about_o any_o thing_n occur_v concern_v the_o matter_n before_o we_o and_o for_o the_o establish_n of_o his_o waver_a mind_n i_o will_v here_o before_o i_o pass_v to_o

it_o to_o pass_v they_o will_v say_v that_o this_o article_n of_o faith_n viz._n that_o jesus_n be_v the_o messiah_n or_o christ_n be_v so_o often_o repeat_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n why_o be_v

the_o act_n that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o point_n of_o faith_n of_o absolute_a necessity_n but_o that_o this_o alone_a be_v sufficient_a to_o constitute_v a_o man_n a_o true_a member_n of_o

lead_v the_o reader_n to_o the_o right_a understanding_n of_o the_o whole_a case_n 1._o it_o must_v be_v consider_v that_o the_o believe_v of_o jesus_n to_o be_v the_o promise_a messiah_n be_v the_o first_o step_n to_o christianity_n and_o therefore_o this_o rather_o than_o any_o other_o article_n be_v propound_v to_o be_v believe_v by_o all_o those_o who_o either_o our_o saviour_n or_o the_o

that_o eminent_a and_o extraordinary_a person_n prophesy_v of_o long_o before_o and_o that_o he_o be_v send_v and_o commission'd_n by_o god_n there_o can_v be_v no_o hope_n that_o they_o will_v attend_v unto_o any_o other_o proposal_n relate_v to_o the_o christian_a religion_n this_o be_v the_o true_a reason_n why_o that_o article_n be_v constant_o propound_v to_o be_v believe_v by_o all_o that_o look_v towards_o christianity_n and_o why_o it_o be_v mention_v so_o often_o in_o the_o evangelical_n write_n it_o be_v that_o which_o make_v way_n for_o the_o embrace_v of_o all_o the_o other_o article_n it_o be_v the_o passage_n to_o all_o the_o rest_n but_o our_o anonymous_n author_n not_o think_v of_o this_o but_o observe_v that_o this_o one_o article_n be_v usual_o require_v to_o be_v assent_v to_o in_o the_o gospel-writing_n he_o thence_o inconsiderate_o conclude_v that_o this_o be_v the_o whole_a of_o the_o christian_a belief_n and_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o else_o to_o be_v necessary_o assent_v to_o to_o make_v a_o man_n a_o christian._n i_o be_o sorry_a to_o see_v that_o a_o person_n of_o some_o sense_n can_v have_v so_o little_a a_o feel_n of_o the_o true_a nature_n and_o import_n of_o christianity_n that_o he_o can_v harbour_v such_o a_o thought_n as_o this_o that_o all_o the_o necessary_a part_n of_o our_o belief_n be_v sum_v up_o in_o a_o bare_a give_v assent_n to_o this_o proposition_n jesus_n be_v the_o messiah_n he_o mistake_v a_o part_n of_o christian_a faith_n for_o all_o and_o the_o entrance_n and_o beginning_n of_o it_o for_o the_o full_a consummation_n of_o it_o 2._o it_o be_v to_o be_v remember_v that_o though_o this_o one_o proposition_n or_o article_n be_v mention_v alone_o in_o some_o place_n yet_o there_o be_v reason_n to_o think_v and_o be_v persuade_v that_o at_o the_o same_o time_n other_o matter_n of_o faith_n be_v propose_v for_o it_o be_v confess_v by_o all_o intelligent_a and_o observe_v man_n that_o the_o history_n of_o the_o scripture_n be_v concise_a and_o that_o in_o relate_v of_o matter_n of_o fact_n many_o passage_n be_v omit_v by_o the_o sacred_a penman_n wherefore_o though_o but_o this_o one_o article_n of_o belief_n because_o it_o be_v a_o lead_v one_o and_o make_v way_n for_o the_o rest_n be_v express_o mention_v in_o some_o of_o the_o gospel_n yet_o we_o must_v not_o conclude_v thence_o that_o no_o other_o matter_n of_o faith_n be_v require_v to_o be_v admit_v of_o for_o thing_n be_v brief_o set_v down_o in_o the_o evangelical_n record_n and_o we_o must_v suppose_v many_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o in_o direct_a term_n relate_v the_o not_o attend_v to_o this_o have_v be_v one_o occasion_n of_o the_o present_a mistake_n hence_o it_o be_v that_o this_o narrow-minded_n writer_n shut_v up_o all_o in_o belief_n of_o iesus_n be_v the_o christ._n 3._o this_o also_o must_v be_v think_v of_o that_o though_o there_o be_v several_a part_n and_o member_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n yet_o they_o do_v not_o all_o occur_v in_o any_o one_o place_n of_o scripture_n this_o be_v well_o know_v to_o those_o that_o be_v conversant_a in_o the_o write_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o therefore_o when_o in_o some_o place_n only_o one_o single_a part_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n be_v make_v mention_n of_o as_o necessary_o to_o be_v embrace_v in_o order_n to_o salvation_n we_o must_v be_v careful_a not_o to_o take_v it_o alone_o but_o to_o supply_v it_o from_o several_a other_o place_n which_o make_v mention_v of_o other_o necessary_a and_o indispensable_a point_n of_o belief_n i_o will_v give_v the_o reader_n a_o plain_a instance_n of_o this_o rom._n 10._o 9_o if_o thou_o shall_v believe_v in_o thy_o heart_n that_o god_n have_v raise_v he_o i._n e._n the_o lord_n jesus_n from_o the_o dead_a thou_o shall_v be_v save_v here_o one_o article_n of_o faith_n viz._n the_o belief_n of_o christ_n resurrection_n because_o it_o be_v of_o so_o great_a importance_n in_o christianity_n be_v only_o mention_v but_o all_o the_o rest_n must_v be_v suppose_v because_o they_o be_v mention_v in_o other_o place_n and_o consequent_o if_o we_o will_v give_v a_o impartial_a account_n of_o our_o belief_n we_o must_v consult_v those_o place_n and_o they_o be_v not_o all_o together_o but_o disperse_v here_o and_o there_o wherefore_o we_o must_v look_v they_o out_o and_o
