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.

israel_n go_v and_o this_o passover_n be_v keep_v of_o the_o jew_n for_o a_o memorial_n of_o what_o be_v do_v and_o at_o the_o very_a time_n of_o the_o jew_n keep_v this_o passover_n it_o be_v that_o

of_o the_o jew_n passover_n be_v but_o as_o a_o shadow_n whereby_o to_o know_v the_o substance_n and_o a_o shadow_n be_v but_o a_o dark_a representation_n of_o a_o thing_n and_o so_o this_o dark_a

the_o israelite_n out_o of_o egypt_n from_o under_o the_o bondage_n of_o pharaoh_n and_o the_o egyptian_n so_o at_o this_o very_a time_n of_o christ_n institute_v of_o this_o type_n god_n have_v a_o

and_o dignity_n of_o the_o parent_n as_o jacob_n say_v to_o reuben_n his_o first-born_a gen._n 49.3_o so_o sin_n be_v the_o first-born_a child_n of_o the_o devil_n therein_o consist_v his_o power_n

and_o as_o this_o first_o bear_v son_n or_o lamb_n of_o god_n overcome_v the_o devil_n sin_n death_n and_o hell_n by_o himself_o so_o that_o they_o have_v no_o power_n over_o he_o so_o by_o the_o

at_o they_o and_o first_o for_o the_o property_n of_o the_o one_o post_n and_o its_o sprinkle_n viz._n the_o conscience_n first_o for_o its_o property_n as_o the_o one_o post_n of_o the_o gate_n

faith_n begin_v to_o be_v pure_o operative_a and_o not_o before_o for_o now_o faith_n have_v its_o groundwork_n lay_v in_o the_o heart_n and_o before_o it_o be_v but_o in_o the_o head_n and_o from_o what_o part_n it_o have_v its_o ground_n so_o do_v it_o work_n and_o this_o faith_n ground_v in_o the_o heart_n do_v carry_v out_o the_o soul_n into_o seek_v of_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o divine_a nature_n and_o so_o be_v make_v willing_a thereby_o to_o wait_v for_o the_o out-pouring_a or_o shed_v abroad_o of_o the_o same_o to_o cleanse_v and_o wash_v away_o that_o sin_n and_o self_n that_o do_v so_o defile_v it_o and_o likewise_o this_o faith_n do_v so_o clear_o carry_v out_o the_o soul_n from_o the_o desire_n of_o thing_n create_v that_o it_o stand_v in_o opposition_n against_o they_o when_o they_o pierce_v or_o present_v themselves_o into_o the_o soul_n likewise_o by_o the_o power_n of_o this_o faith_n man_n be_v make_v to_o see_v the_o emptiness_n of_o all_o form_n and_o duty_n the_o which_o it_o have_v so_o much_o dote_v on_o before_o and_o likewise_o it_o make_v the_o soul_n true_o know_v wherein_o its_o true_a life_n consist_v and_o nothing_o be_v desire_v in_o comparison_n of_o that_o which_o be_v the_o true_a life_n thereof_o from_o whence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o this_o soul_n stand_v at_o variance_n with_o 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

witness_v herein_o the_o same_o have_v he_o receive_v of_o the_o father_n who_o send_v he_o both_o to_o baptise_v and_o bear_v witness_n of_o christ_n that_o
