the Christ 1 Joh● 2 22. and crucifieth Christ in hi● members as the Church of the New Testament in the Apostolicall times was gathered out of th● Nationall Church of the Jewes that was of old once a true state untill they crucified Jesus the Christ in his humane nature whom God raised from the dead and exalted him to be Lord and Christ Act. 2. 36. i● God shall by his Gospel-Ministery wound and prick their hearts for their sinne of crucifying Christ in his members that confesse the faith ●f Jesus the Christ 1 Joh. 5. 1. as ●ee did once the Jewes that crucifi●d the Christ their Messias in his ●wne person Acts 2. 37. so that ●●ey trembling cry out Men and ●●ethren what shall we doe Must not the Reply bee that ●oyce that the holy Spirit spake by ●e mouth of Peter Repent and be ●aptized every one 〈◊〉 you in the name of Jesus for the remission of sinnes ●nd yee shall receive the gift of the ho● Spirit For the promise is to you and 〈◊〉 your children and to them that are ●farre off even so many as the Lord 〈◊〉 God shall call And with many other words hee said and must not ●ee doe so likewise seeing what●oever things ●ere written afore-time were written for our learning Rom. 15. ● Save your selves from this unto●ard generation Seeing the same wrath is fallen on them as was on ●he Jewes for killing the Lord Jesus ●nd their owne Prophets 1 Thes 2. 14 15 16. seeing they crucifie Christ in his members that contend for the faith of Jesus the Chris● as Paul did Act. 9. Now so many as shall gladly receive this word and be baptized shall be saved from wrath as Noah and his family were saved in the Ark from perishing by water seeing it is written by th● like figure Baptisme saveth 1 Pet. 3● 20 21. The Reason is first Because th● time of our ignorance God hath winke● at but now seeing light is come and truth is revealed the Lord Jesus commandeth us every where to re●pent c. Acts 2. 38. Else our con●demnation will be heavie Joh. 3 19 20. This is t●e condemnation ligh● is come and men love darknesse mor● then light because their deeds are evill c. Secondly Because we have with Paul and the Jaylor in the time o● our ignorance beaten and perse●cuted Jesus the Christ in his mem●bers that contend for the faith 1 Joh. 5. 1. and wee though within our selves we ought to doe something contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth as Paul did in the time of his ignorance Act. 26. 9. If God shall by his good Spirit convince us of the evills that wee have done so as that we trembling cry Men and brethren what shall we doe Must not the reply be Repent c. Act. 2. 38. Else shall they not be disobedient to the voyce of the Spirit that speaketh seeing Paul and the Jaylor arose and were baptized Acts 9. 18. 16. 33. Thirdly Because there is no promises of salvation to be found in the Antichristian states that deny Jesus the Christ 1 Joh. 2. 22. The Reasons are First Because all the promise of God are made over to them onely that beleeve in Jesus the Christ 2 Cor 1. 20. Hee that beleeveth in the Sonne of God hath life and he that beleeveth not in the Sonne of God hath not life but the wrath of God abideth on him John 3. 36. Secondly Till we did beleeve in Jesus Christ we were in respect of any visible calling without Christ being Aliants from the Common-wealth of Israel and strangers from the Covenant of Promise having no hope and without God in the world But once beleevers in Christ Yee who were sometime afarre off are made nigh by his bloud and through him have accesse by one Spirit unto the Father And are no more strangers and forraigners but fellow-citizens with the Saints and of Gods houshold c. Ephes 2. 12 13. 18 19 20 21 22. Thirdly Because they in denying the Sonnes authority to bee the King and Prophet of his Church in all his outward administrations in admitting members into his spirituall kingdome Math. 28. 19. 20. though they own him their Priest that ever liveth to make reconciliation to God for them Hebr. 7. 25. They deny the Father that sanctified the Sonne and sent him into the world and raised him from the dead and exalted him to be the Lord and Christ Act. 2. 36. Ephes 1. 20 21 22. Fourthly Because the Antichristian state deny the Sonne 1 Iohn 2. 22 23. Whom the Father of glory commandeth us to heare Math. 17. 5. Yea and the Apostle Peterciting the Testimony of Moses saith Truely Moses said to the Fathers The Lord your God will raise up a Prophet from the midst of your bretheren like unto me him shall yee heare in all things whatsoever he shall say and the danger followeth It shall come to passe that every soule which refuseth to heare the voice of that Prophet that soule shall be cut off from his people Acts 3 22 23. The Reasons are these First If Jesus the Christ bee not our Prophet to teach us hee will not be our King to protect us Math. 28. 10. Teach them saith Christ to observe all things that I command you And loe I am alwaies with you to the end of the world Secondly If Christ be no Prophet to teach us his heavenly Fathers revealed will he wil be no Priest to intercede for us Ioh. 17. 20. I pray not for these alone but for all them that shall beleeve in me through their word Now it is not their word that they speake but what they have received from Christ to speake Seeing it is written 2 Iohn 9. Whosoever transgresseth and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ hath not God but he that abideth in the doctrine of Christ hath both the Father and the Sonne Verse 10. If there come any unto you and bring not this doctrin receive him not to house neither bid him God speed Verse 11. For hee that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evill deeds Thirdly If Christ bee no Prophet to teach us Hee will bee no Judge to acquit us Iohn 12. 48. Hee which rejecteth mee and rece iveth not my words hath one that judgeth him the words that I have spoken the same shall judge us in the last day And then like the wise Merchant let us cast up our accouut what it will profit us If by denying to heare the voice of our Prophet Jesus we gaine the world and in the meane season loose our precious soules Knowing the Sonne of man shortly will come to judge the world And then they which be ashamed of him and his words in this sinnefull and adulterous generation of them will the Sonne of man be ashamed when he cometh in the glory of his Father with all his holy Angels Marke 8. 38. Fourthly If we joyne with them that deny Jesus the
