A44247	The doctrine of life, or, Of mans redemption, by the seed of Eve, the seed of Abraham, the seed of David, &c. as it was taught in severall periods of time, from Gen. 3. 15. till Christ came in the flesh, to fulfill all typicall prefigurations of him by his death : wherein also sundry other fundamentall points are discussed and cleared from some common mistakes : as Daniels chronologie of seventy sevens, which is cleared from the uncertainty which too many expositors have unadvisedly cast upon it : and about the Jewes calling, that it must not be understand of any return to Canaan, or of their restauration to a perspicuous common wealth any more, but of the calling of a remnant of them to the faith, in the countries where they live dispersed : and with the true nature of our Lords sufferings, with sundry other such like points, as may be seen in the table : propounded by way of question and answer, with annotations thereunto annexed : divided into three parts / by Edward Holyoke of New-England.

any tormented estate Q. 8. The mystery of godlinesse The mystery of Godlinesse was hidden in types and figures from the ages and generations of the Apostate families Eph. 3. Col. 1.26 But in Judah was God known his name was great in Israel in Salem was his Tabernacle and his dwelling place in Sion Psal 76.1.2 He shewed his word unto Jacob and his statutes and Judgments unto Israel he dealt not so with any nation and as for his judgements they had not knowne them therefore they sayd Praise ye J A H. Psalm 147 So that Israel did enjoy the true knowledge of God in Christ and were the houshold of God having the covenants of promise and the seals of the fame and lived and dyed in the constant hope of immortality in glory read diligently Eph. 2.11 12 Act. 26.6.7 And this we must understand concerning the true hidden mystery hid in types and figures among godly families untill Moses and then to the Nations while Israels fleece only was moystened by the dewes that fell on mount Sion but after the ending of the seventy sevens Dan. 9. then the Gospel was openly revealed and made known to all Nations of Noahs families and yet in those dayes yea now in these dayes it is an hid mystery too too manifest experience doth witnesse in kingdoms townes and families 1 Cor. 2. Q 9. The heathens also All those noble prophesies in Moses Prophets and Psalmes of the calling of the Gentiles do comment on the blessing to Sem and the Promise to Abraham The holy Prophets rejoyced in spirit foreseeing the glorious calling of the families to the Faith we should have the like affection to the calling of the Jewes Rom. 11.

Eph. 1.11 12 13 14. Annotations How Redemption was taught from the Promise to ABRAHAM till the Law of the Passeover or the coming forth of EGYPT QUest 1. What is the scripture in which the Revelation of the mystery of Christ was made known to Abraham Answ Gen. 12 2. And I will make of thee a great Nation and I will blesse thee and make thy name great and thou shalt be a blessing And I will blesse them that blesse thee and curse him that curseth thee And in thee shall all the families of the Earth be blessed QUest In what doth this scripture teach instruct convince correct and comfort Answ I Of the cursed and most wretched estate of the apostate families and unrecoverable in respect of any ability in themselves God hiding from them by Babells Languages for many generations the glorious mystery of the Gospell of his Son that they became Loammi and Lo-ruchamah that is not Gods people nor pitied and ever enemies to God and his people walking in all courses of unperswadeable disobedience II. It is prophesied by this great and precious promise that the families shall be delivered from the misery of that apostasie by the Son of God who was sent of the Father into the world in fullness of time to be a blessing to make knowne the riches of the glorious mystery of his will to reconcile them to be Gods people and to be under mercy through his gracious Redemption and by the same to reconcile the enmity of Jew and Gentile III. Here it is taught who Christ is touching his person that he being God is also man of the Seed of Abraham Gal. 4.4 Eb. 2.16 Saint Matthew chap. 1. doth shew the history and the promise fullfilled As also how Christ Immanuel doth blesse us saving his people from the guilt punishment and dominion of their sins by his precious death and sacrisice By which hee brake the Serpents head-Plot Gen. 3.15 in his constant patience and obedience at the very same time when the Serpent and his seed put him to an accursed death on the tree as a notorious sinner By this performance Gal. 4 5. Rom. 3 25. this manner of the blessing of Abraham came on the Gentiles Gal. 3.13.14 IV. By faith in the promise we are reconciled justified and adopted and so are no more servants in bondage but heirs in Christ V. Whereas it is sayd in thy seed all families of the Earth are blessed it sheweth there is the same and no other way or means of eternall life and salvation to Jew and Gentile but only and alone the Lord Jesus Christ nor any comfort in this world but as given us by promise and covenant through faith in Christ in the use of the meanes lawfully used Wherefore all other Religions Additaments inventious of men are abominable and all communion with such is no better then the communion with devills VI. We have not forgiveness of sins life and the inheritance of heaven † Act. 3.26 Tit. 3.5 6. Gal. 3.16.17 Abraham had not-wherein to rejoyce as of himselfe he did not prevent God but God prevented him by workes of our doing or will in our choosing but all is of free grace and free promise VII The Lord God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ doth give The Lords Prayer and all the prayers of the Saints belong hither Gal. 4.6 Rom. 8.15 so note here that Gods promises are the foundation of prayer David 2 Sam. 7.27 Dan. 9.2 c. as the effects of his promise his spirit to cry Abba Father and to seal assurance of reconciliation justification and adoption and to be an earnest of that inheritance of the Saints in light and to worke mortification and to begin the life of glory in sanctification This the Lord God doth worke in those only that looke for salvation in Christ as sons by the promise not as servants for workes or images VIII In that the eternall God the Gentiles shall be blessed in Christ it is a speech manifesting * Of eternity all Gods works were known to him as the Apostle James saith Act 15. This is handled Rom 8.9 10 11. chapters the purpose of Gods election and predestination in Christ as the spirituall blessings are handled by the Apostle to proceed out of those eternall fountaines Eph. 1. under the word blessed are comprehended the unsearcheable riches of Christ the second Adam who of God is made unto us the efficient cause of wisdome † Or freedom or forgiveness justification sanctification and redemption IX The precious promises in Christ understood and beleeved transforme or metamorphose a man and make him partake of the divine nature so that they which beleeve in God must as from a new principle in uprightnesse of heart walke in the spirit be alwaies zealous to shew forth good workes and with all due care flee the corruptions that are in the world through lusts This is to keepe the mystery

nation kinred tongue and people of the Papacy shall submit to the Everlasting Gospel to fear God and to give him glory and to worship him that made the heaven and the earth and the fountains of water and upon this mysticall Babylon shall fall more and more by faithfull Angels one after another Apoc. 14. But this will not be of Kingdomès together all at once casting off ●baddons Kingdome but it will be successive one Country and Kingdome after another 2. Now the seventh Phiall is much like the seventh Trumpet one will explaine the other But this we are diligently to observe that in the fifth Trumpet it is mentioned that the Ayre is darkned as well as the Sun the Ayre is such a medium that by it we see the light of the Sun the blessed and holy Law of Christ his lively Oracles is the Ayre by which as the onely Instrument we see the Son of God This Ayre was darkned by the cursed smoke of Heresies from the pit of darknesse blaspheming the purity of the Hebrew and Greeke Testaments hindring by all possible meanes Translations into our owne Languages and forbidding the Study of the Scriptures urging their unsound Translations as authentick * Especial Gen. 3.15 corrupting most Satanically the holy Rolls not fearing an eternall Pillory obtruding also idle and erroneous and hereticall expositions wicked Decretalls golden Legens Apocrypha Books their Rosaries Missals Ladies Psalter transcendently blasphemous Heathenish customes c. c. By all which the Beasts marked knew What and Who King Abaddon was these declared him to them By these they saw and beleived him to be their God their most holy Father that he had power to forgive sin and had power to send them into Purgatory and to recall them c. c. There was a kind of invisible spirituall power that w●nt from him to all his marked How did they reverence him and submit themselves to him in his Cardinals Nuncioes Preists Jesuites even all his Seminaries and Locusts of every kind 3. Now the wrath of Christ in the seventh Phial is powred on all this smoke this pontifician Ayre all these were dispelled by the light from Christs Throne set up in the reformed Churches by the Angels that he sent holy spirits invisibly his Christan servants visibly They by learning Hebrew and Greek and teaching in the Scholes of the Prophets And by the helpe of the blessed Spirit of Christ the great Rabboni and Doctor of his Church did by sound and learned Translations and Orthodox expositions and by many excellent and worthy endeavours both by teaching and writing the Enemy being Judges and by the practise of noble Arts and Sciences especially Printing and by couragious Parliaments in the dayes of King Hen. the eighth and King Ed. the sixth and Queen El. and King James and King Charles and by Diets in Germany c. make such Voices Thundrings and Lightnings in the Popish Ayre Yea the Lord Jesus hath so ordered in his providence that some learned in the Popish Kingdome have been a means to overthrow i● as A●ias Mont. that it did dispell the foggs and smoke that Apolluou and his Locusts had formerly raised and as the Angel Jehovah at the giving of the Law of his Gospell did by his voice with Thunder and Earth quake dispell the Idolatry of old Egypt from his Israel so now against Rome-Egypt he did thunder and send forth lightning by zealous Luther Tuelancton and diverse Martyrs in Germany c. and by painfull Tindall c. and by Martyrs in England Germaney France Scotland c. And after this by faithfull prophesying and Orthodox writings of many worthies of the Lord in England Scotland Geneva c. but yet something is still to be reformed for the be-smoked Ayre is not fully cleared amongst the best reformed in some points 4. In Abaddons Kingdome that shall yet be by the just providence of Christ a further terrible Earth-quake of his Government that it shall be greatly divided the Cities of the Nations shal more and more fal from it which will also be a cause of more wars and commotions and such fiercenesse of wrath shall come on the Papacy as there did on the Chanaanites by haile Jos 10. and such alteration of policy shall be in the King of Locusts Kingdome as if Islands and Mountaines were not found and such alteration and breaking as of the b Gen. 6. the Earth is corrupted and I will corrupt them saith Christ Jehovah old world corrupted and Chanaanites destroyed that the Isralites might dwell in their sted and the Kingdomes of the world shall become our Lords and his Christs and he shall reign for ever and ever 5 Then the twenty four Elders which sate before God on their-seats shall fall on their faces and worship God saying We give thee thanks O Lord God Almighty which art and wast and art to come because thou hast taken to thee thy great power hast reigned and the Nations were angry and thy wrath is come the time of the dead that they should be judged and that thou should give reward unto thy Servants the Prophets and to the Saints and them that feare thy name both small and great and shouldst corrupt them that corrupt the Earth And the Temple of God was * The apostate and wicked Kings of Judah shut the Temple so did both godly 2. Cor. 6.16 opened in Heaven and there were seen in his Temple the Arke of his Testament and there were Lightnings and Voices and Thundrings and an Earth-quake and great haile Apoc. 11. the Man of sin by burning and distroying the holy Temples of Christ Teachers and godly Congregations 1. Cor. 6.15 19. Ch. 3.16.17 6. Thus great Babylon shall heare the voice of the seventh Trumpet as Jerico did and feele the seventh Phial of Gods wrath in the Lords due season when Nations opprest by them shall learne skilfully to sing Halleluj●th and with understanding shall praise the Lord the Lord must for vaine is the helpe of man consume that bad King Abaddon of Kittim Italy in the end at his glorious appearing as those Beasts in Daniel by the first comming of Christ into the World were wholly consumed for whom God sate on a firy Throne so the Beast compounded of those foure shall not wholly perish untill the second coming of Christ for whom a white Throne of Justice is openly revailed by sentence thence the false Prophet Pope and the Beast of his Authority shall ay feele Gods wrath untill they be both ●ast with the Dragon into eternall fire Amen SECT IX Consider these things advisedly about the Phials 1. THe seven Phials doe distinguish the manner of Christs dispensation not the time as it is apparant 1. Because these Phials are not yet powred out in all the Kingdomes that gave their power to the Beast as not on Spaine c. 2. All these Phialls have been and are now in further execution in our Native

afterward found great severity of thundring wrath and terrour of most bitter plagues as if their filthy flesh rotted from their bones and their idolatrous and adulterous eyes did consume in their holes and their blasphemous tongues in their mouths 9. And the Lord MESSIAS to whom the Father of Heaven had committed all authority and power raised tumults among them first on the Iewes then on the Caesars Augusti and their people in most fearfull manner That the Caesars and their Assassines had death and a gulph and grave of destruction by intestine garboiles in their Armies destroying one another for three hundred years the six seals do also shew this in Ap. 90 Ap. 6. 10. Zach. 14.16 When the Heavenly Ierusalem was builded on twelve precious Foundations all of precious Iewels the Prophets and Apostles Doctrine b These are the same waters Ezekiel speaks of that came from the Temple Ezek. 47. and Christ JeAsue expounds Zac. and Ezek. in Apoc. 21. 22. then those holy waters as is noted of healing Doctrine issued and had free course into all quarters under Heaven East West North and South and every quarter had three Gates into the City And the godly in all times of the New Testament did flee like Doves to nestle in this City they came to it b Constantly continually from mouth to mouth c. Esai 66.23 these are allegoricall expressions anniversarily to keep the Feast of Tabernacles And the Apoc. 7. is an Historicall prophesie that 144000. of Israel the twelve Tribes that held the faith and an innumerable company of all Nations come to this City to blesse and praise * All Nations did blesse him as they were in him Psal 72.17 Gen. 12.1 2 3. the Eternall Son of God who did Tabernacle or Temple in our nature for 〈◊〉 ●edemption and when they came they brought Palme-Branches in their hands crying Hosanna Salvation to our God that s●●teth on the Thorne and to the LAMBE for evermore 11. And they that will not come to the Feast of Tabernacles to serve Christ Iesus the true Tabernacle or Temple in his holy Assemblies in this his Ierusalem they shall have no Raine to moisten their dry and barren hearts They shall not know what meanes the Dewes that fall on Mount Hermon and the sweet small Raine that distilleth on the Holy Mount aine of Sion Apoc. 14.1 All the Gentiles that will not yeild obedience to the faith of the Gospell Christ will bring upon them positive and privative plagues as the stories of the Church shew this in all the Centuries in all Countries 12. And because Christ Iesus our Lord hath made us Kings and Sacrificers to God his Father Holinesse to Jehovah which was graven on the front place of the high Sacrificer shall be written on the Horse Bridles and on every Pot in the Heavenly Ierusalem thus Zachariah as Dan. 9. Esai 66. sheweth an utter abrogation of the Ceremonies of Moses Chanaan City Temple and worships 13. And let this be noted that the holy Apostles expounding the Prophets never taught the Saints that ever they should expect any outward glory to returne to Chanaan City Temple or Kingdome but taught them of the Heavenly I●●usalem and therein the Lord God of Hosts the Lambe to be the Temple and the holy worship to be che●fly spirituall prayer to be every where in lifting up pure hands and hearts in all godly qualifications as our Lord Messia● told the woman of Sama●ia Ioh. 4. 14. And therefore the Apostle Peter the Apostle of the circumcision taught the scattered Tribes of Israel in Pontus Asia Galatia Bithinia Capadocia and Chaldea of the Heavenly inheritance that fadeth not as Canaan and that themselves were lively Stones in the spirituall building to be an holy Preist-hood to offer up spirituall sacrifice acceptable to God by Iesus Christ the true Temple And that they that were and had been for many dayes Lo-ammi and Lo ●uchamah Hos 1. 3. were now by the glorious Gospell made Gods people and had obtained mercy and pity and warnes them that they be not as their Fathers to stumble at Christ and his Doctrine And further instructs them that the Prophesi●s which they so looked to be fulfilled in an outward manner were not to be taken properly and literally as Ezikiels Land City and Temple is taken to this day of the Jewes in propriety of sp●ach that Peter blameth And the teaching otherwise was damnable heresie and a denying of Christ Jesus as the Apostle said of Circumcision Gal. 5.2 3 4 as experience also tels us these fifteen hundred years And therefore let Teachers beware how they harden Jewes in their idol● and vanity Solomons Kingdome was shaken but we receive a Kingdome that cannot be shaken the Low Jerusalem was destroyed but the Heavenly City cannot The Preist hood of Levi is passed away but Christs Preist-hood abideth for ever c. and we crosse all the Doctrine of Christs new Testament to plead any more for Terrestials Chap. XXIII Expounding Zach. 12 10 11 12 13 14. Zach. 14.10 11 c. SECT I. It is obj●cted that Zac. 12.10 11 12 13 14. is not fulfilled AND I will poure upon the House of David and upon the inhabitants of Ierusalem the Spirit of grace and supplications and they shall look upon me whom they have pe●rced and they shall mourne for him as one mourneth for his only Son c. and the Family of the House of David and Nathan shall mourne and the House of Levi and the Family of Sbimei shall mourne 1. I think Act. 1.14 is an History to the prophesie for Davids House † The Apostles argument is strong that although must did not mourne yet the saith ●ulnesse of God is not without effect and God had not cast off all the Apostle reasons from himselfe as if there should not have been no more then himselfe Rom. 3. 11.1 2 3. but in the Acts there were five thousand and more and in ●erusalem su●●ly the faithfull are but a little stock these all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication with the women and Mary the Mother of IESUS and with his Brethren In this company was some of the House of David and some of the Family of Nathan and some of the House of Levi for it is said a great company of the Preists were subject to the faith Act. 6. and Ba●nabas a Levite became a gracious Son of consolation to the Church And that the Lord powred on the inhabitants of Ierusalem the Spirit of his grace and supplications is historied in Acts ch 2.37 and many more afterwards ch 4. and in after times of every Tribe twelve thousand Apoc. 7. 2. I doubt not but when the Iewes be hereafter called according to Rom. 11. they will mourn for their own sins and for the sins of their fore Fathers but we must stick to propriety unlesse it opposeth the analogic of faith in other Scriptures that so we may
