A47130 A Christian catechisme, for the instruction of youth, and others to whom it may be useful in the grounds of Christian religion, and practice of Christian piety wherein the twelve articles of the Christian creed, and the Godhead and manhood natures of Christ and his prophetical, priestly, and kingly office are briefly explained : and the true Christian doctrin, concerning Christ his being a sufficient saviour, as he is both God and man : and with respect to both the absolute necessity, and excellent consistencie of his outward coming in the flesh, and his inward coming, and spiritual appearance in our hearts, through faith in him, and love and obedience to him, in order to our eternal salvation, declared and demonstrated by testimonies of Holy Scripture : and the divine excellency of the light within, in distinction from humane reason, asserted and vindicated : and the question concerning its sufficiency to salvation, truly stated and resolved : where also many other Gospel doctrins, and practical Christian truths and duties are held forth / by George Keith.

the Man Christ can be loved without having outwardly seen him or heard him by the same reason he can be believed and trusted in without the outward sight and hearing of him For further Information concerning Baptism and the Supper I refer to my Book called The Arguments c. against Baptism and the Supper Examined and Refuted Printed 1698. The CREED I Believe in God the Father Almighty maker of Heaven and Earth and in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord who was conceived by the Holy Ghost born of the Virgin Mary suffered under Pontius Pilate was crucified dead and buried he descended into Hell The third day he rose again from the dead he ascended into Heaven and sitteth on the right Hand of God the Father Almighty from thence he shall come to judge the quich and the dead I believe in the Holy Ghost the holy Catholick Church the Communion of Saints the forgiveness of Sins the Resurrection of the Body and the Life Everlasting Amen The Ten Commandments XX. Chap. Exodus I. GOD spake all these words saying I am the Lord thy God Thou shalt have none other Gods but me II. Thou shalt not make to thy self any graven Image nor the likeness of any thing that is in Heaven above or in the Earth beneath or in the Water under the Earth Thou shalt not bow down to them nor worship them for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God visiting the sins of the Fathers upon the Children unto the third and fourth Generation of them that hate me and shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep my Commandments III. Thou shalt not take the Name of the Lord thy God in vain For the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his Name in vain IV. Remember that thou keep holy the Sabbath day Six days shalt thou labour and do all that thou hast to do but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God In it thou shalt do no manner of work thou nor thy Son nor thy daughter thy man-servant nor thy maid-servant nor thy cattle nor thy stranger that is within thy gates For in six days the Lord made Heaven and Earth the Sea and all that in them is and rested the seventh day wherefore the Lord blessed the seventh day and hallowed it V.

South on Luke 11. 35. vol. 3. which I judge worthy to be noticed well agreeing with what I have delivered in my fore-going Catechism on that Subject Pag. 47. 63. 64. 65. Other Protestant Authors I could cite asserting the same Pag. 68. Vol. 3. Some of the ablest of the Peripatetick School not without countenance from Aristotle himself in the 5th Chapter of his 3d Book 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 hold That besides the Native Inherent Light of the Intellect which is essential to it as it is a Faculty made to apprehend and take in its Object after a spiritual way there is also another Light in the Nature of a Medium bearning in upon it by a continual efflux and emanation from the Great Fountain of Light and irradiating this intellectual Faculty together with Species and Representations of things imprinted thereupon According to which Doctrin it seems with great reason to follow That whatsoever interposes between the Mind and those irradiations from God as all Sin more or less certainly does must needs hinder the entrance and admission of them into the Mind and then darkness must by necessary consequence ensue as being nothing else but the absence or privation of Light For the further illustration of which Notion we may observe that the Understanding the Mind or Conscience of Man which we shall here take for the same thing seem to bear much the same respect to God which Glass or Christial does to the Light or Sun which appears indeed to the Eye a bright and shining thing nevertheless this shining is not so much from any essential Light or Brightness existing in the Glass it self supposing that that there be any such in it as it is from the Porousness of its Body rendring it Diaphanous and thereby fit to receive and transmit those Rayes of Light which falling upon it and passing through it represent it to common view as a Luminous Body But now let any thing of dirt or foulness fully this Glass and so much of the Shine of Brightness of it is presently gone because so much of the Light is thereby hindred from entering into it and making its way through it In like manner every act of Sin every degree of Guilt does in its proportion cast a kind of soil and foulness upon the intellectual part of the Soul and thereby intercepts those blessed irradiations which the Divine Nature is continually darting in upon it a little after I will not affirm this to be a perfect exemplification of the Case before us but I am sure it is a lively illustration of it and may be of no small use to such as shall throughly consider it And concerning the donation of a certain determinate number of Persons made to Christ to be his People by an Eternal Compact or Transaction between the Father and the Son by virtue of which Agreement or Transaction he was in the Fulness of Time to suffer for them and to accomplish the whole Work of their Redemption from first to last See pag. 415. of his Sermon on Isa 53. 8. where he hath these following words greatly worthy of notice For to affirm that Christ dyed only to verisie a Proposition That whosoever Believed should be Saved but in the mean time to leave the whole issue of things in reference to Persons so loose and undetermined That it was a question whether ever any should actually Believe and very possible that none ever might and consequently that after Christ had suffered had been striken and dyed for Transgression yet for any thing he had done in all this he might never have had a People this certainly is a strange and new Gospel and such as the Doctrine of our Church seems utterly unacquainted with See pag. 51. 56. of the fore-going Catechisme well agreeing to this ERRATA PAge 14.
