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.

by_o which_o he_o be_v to_o have_v the_o body_n of_o sin_n and_o selfnesse_n destroy_v that_o thereby_o he_o may_v live_v in_o the_o lovely_a fellowship_n of_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n and_o

3.18_o 19_o this_o be_v a_o old_a say_n little_o heed_v but_o mark_v it_o well_o for_o here_o i_o call_v it_o to_o a_o new_a remembrance_n i_o hope_v god_n be_v what_o he_o be_v then_o christ_n be_v

therefore_o my_o friend_n of_o the_o congregat_v order_n judge_v yourselves_o by_o these_o three_o character_n whether_o you_o be_v enemy_n or_o friend_n of_o the_o cross_n yea_o or_o nay_o but_o it_o may_v be_v you_o hardly_o know_v how_o to_o judge_v yourselves_o by_o they_o therefore_o for_o your_o sake_n i_o will_v explain_v they_o a_o little_a that_o thereby_o you_o may_v the_o better_a

and_o it_o seem_v such_o a_o foolish_a thing_n to_o do_v so_o that_o few_o can_v conceive_v that_o they_o themselves_o do_v any_o such_o thing_n but_o in_o case_n there_o be_v any_o such_o who_o do_v that_o foolish_a act_n yet_o every_o one_o can_v excuse_v himself_o and_o think_v it_o may_v belong_v to_o some_o other_o but_o mark_v well_o what_o shall_v be_v say_v and_o see_v which_o of_o you_o
