Priviledge that doth attend those that walk therein for he saith God is Light and in him is no Darkness at all If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in Darkness we Lye and do not the Truth but if we walk in the Light as he is in the Light we have fellowship one with another and the Blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all Sin 1 John 1. 5 6 7. Well then the Nations of them which are saved shall walk in the Light Rev. 21. 24. And the Lord sent the Apostle Paul to turn People from Darkness to Light Acts 26. 18. But what have the Watchmen of the Night the Merchants of Babylon been a doing these many Years Why they have laboured to keep People from the Light and Wo and Misery will be their Portion if they Repent not Qu. 4. Whether they believe any such thing as Original Sin that is Whether every Man is a Sinner and defilled from his very Birth Or whether Children when born into the World have their Natures depraved and corrupted by Sin Answ If by Original Sin be meant the first Sin of Adam there was such a Sin But all have not sinned after that similitude nor is every Man or Child a Sinner depraved and corrupted by Sin from his Natural Birth The Prophet Ezekiel saith This Proverb shall no more be used in Israel The Fathers have eaten sower Grapes and the Childrens Teeth are set on edge Behold saith the Lord all Souls are mine both the Soul of the Father and the Soul of the Son are mine the Soul that sinneth it shall dye Ezek. 18. 2 3 4 5. Jer. 31. 29 30. Shall we ascribe the Wages of Sin to those that never sinned Christ said Suffer little Children to come unto me and forbid them not for of such is the Kingdom of Heaven Matth. 19. 13 14. Mark 10. 13 14. And Christ saith Whosoever shall not receive the Kingdom of God as a little Child shall not enter therein Some were said to be sanctified from the Womb as John the Baptist the Prophet Jeremiah Chap. 1. 5. Before I formed thee in the Womb I knew thee and before thou camest out of the Womb I sanctified thee and ordained thee to be a Prophet unto the Nations But as to the General estate of Mankind the Apostle hath made known what man is by Nature dead in Sins and Trespasses and how man is saved 2 Ephes You hath he quickened who were dead in Trespasses and Sins Ephes 2. 1. And you who were dead in Sins and the Vncircumcision of your Flesh hath he Quickened together with him Forgiving you all your Trespasses 2 Ephes 5. When we were dead by Sins hath he quickened us together in Christ by whose Grace we are saved 2 Thes 2. 13. But we ought to give Thanks alwayes for you Brethren beloved of the Lord because God hath from the beginning chosen you to Salvation through Sanctification of the Spirit and Belief of the Truth Qu. 5. Whether the Soul or Spirit of a Man is Immortal Whether it will never dye Or Whether the Soul lives whilst the Body lies rotting in the Grave Answ Yea Immortal never Dyes but ever Lives which are all one The Querist might have spared such impertinant Reitterations Yea we believe and that really as the Body goeth to Dust so the Spirit returns to God that gave it for if in this Life we have hope only we are of all Men most Miserable Qu. 6. Whether the Bodies of the Saints shall be raised again by the Power of God out of their Graves at the last day Answ Yea Spiritual we believe according to Scripture the Resurrection of Just and Unjust and that each shall receive a reward according to things done in the Body The Righteous unto Everlasting Life and the Wicked unto Everlasting Condemnation Well but now we may say as the Apostle Paul said Awake to Righteousness a●d Sin not But yet some one may say How are the Dead Raised up and with what Bodys do they come Thou Fool that which thou sowest is not Quic●ened except it Dye and that which thou sowest thou sowest not that Body that shall be But God giveth it a Body as it hath pleased him and to every seed his own Body There are Coelestial Bodys and Bodys Terrestial but the Glory of the Coelestial is one and the Glory of the Terrestial is another There is a Natural Body and there is a Spiritual Body A●d as ●ne have born the Image of the Earthly we shall also bear the Image of the Heavenly but this I say Flesh and Blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God neither doth Corruption Inherit Incorruption 1 Cor. 15 34 35 36 37 38 40 44 45 50. Qu. 7. Whether Christ that suffered without the Walls of Jerusalem was true God and also true Man I demand a full direct Answer to this Question and pray let there be no Equivocation or shiftings here Answ Yea Christ was true God and true Man tho' it was as Man that he suffers for the Divinity and Manhood of Christ see Matth. 1. 23. John 1. 1 2 3 4. Prov. 8. 22 23 24. to the en● Psal 33. 6. Coll. 1. 16 1● Eph. 3. 9. Heb. 1. 2. Rom. 9. 5. Rev. 3 14. 1 John 5. 20. Psal 45. 6 7. Heb. 1. 9. Isa 9 6. 7. Chap. 32. 2. John 10. 29 and Chap. 14. 28. Rom. 1. 3 4. 1 Cor. 15. Chap. 3. 4 5 6 7 8 45 47. 1 Tim. 2. 5. Gal. 3. 20. Heb. 8. 6. chap. 9. 15. chap. 12. 24. And if the Querist will not believe us but think we Equivocate let him ask us no more Questions until he be more charitable Qu. 8. Whether Christ by his Holy Life and painful Death Satisfied the Justice of God that was offended by the Sin of Man and thereby merited Pardon of Sin and all other Mercies and Blessings for us Answ This Query appears not consistant in the matters implyed between satisfying offended Justice and Pardon of Sin or between a Strict payment and a forgiveness of the Debt Yet no doubt God was well pleased and so satisfied in his Dear Son Christ being the Son of his Love both in his Life Suffering and Death and all the Worth Merit Desert and Dignity thereof and truly ascribed unto Christ in Holy Scriptures for the universal good of Mankind we must needs own and highly esteem yet not as intended to acquit the Guilty nor to indemnifie Pardon or Justifie Persons in their Sins or without Faith in his Name true repentance and Conversion But that they may come under these conditions and receive Pardon thereupon Antiquery 1. How did Christ satisfy the offended Justice of the Father 2. Did he undergo vindicative Justice in the Offenders stead 3. Did he pay all the debt in Man's stead 4. And was it for all Mankind or for some only 5. Or did he not rather appease stay and suspend the Execution of Divine Vengeance and Wrath
