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.

you_o become_v to_o know_v your_o own_o self_n you_o shall_v not_o jar_v so_o much_o with_o they_o as_o you_o do_v for_o you_o and_o they_o and_o the_o papist_n too_o be_v all_o brethren_n in_o the_o bottom_n and_o all_o worship_n one_o and_o the_o same_o god_n with_o your_o heart_n viz._n the_o creature_n as_o i_o shall_v hereafter_o show_v you_o and_o you_o differ_v not_o but_o in_o your_o head_n because_o the_o god_n who_o your_o worship_n have_v his_o habitation_n there_o and_o he_o you_o worship_n in_o your_o form_n and_o it_o be_v about_o your_o formal_a worship_n you_o jar_v and_o

so_o much_o blood_n become_v shed_v about_o religion_n so_o call_v and_o indeed_o otherwise_o it_o can_v be_v but_o that_o while_o man_n live_v in_o form_n they_o will_v be_v jar_v and_o live_v in_o contention_n and_o the_o effect_n thereof_o be_v murder_n and_o blood_n but_o where_o the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o truth_n of_o god_n be_v manifest_v and_o the_o heart_n become_v establish_v therein_o it_o teach_v man_n another_o work_n then_o jar_v with_o and_o kill_v one_o another_o and_o differ_v from_o they_o in_o matter_n of_o judgement_n about_o a_o few_o weak_a out_o sid_n form_n which_o all_o be_v but_o act_n of_o the_o creature_n but_o be_v it_o know_v to_o you_o i_o have_v not_o any_o intention_n at_o all_o to_o wrong_v you_o or_o out_o of_o any_o malice_n to_o write_v to_o you_o but_o out_o of_o a_o friendly_a spirit_n give_v to_o you_o that_o right_n which_o do_v belong_v to_o you_o in_o your_o form_n and_o will_v if_o possible_a let_v you_o see_v the_o emptiness_n in_o all_o form_n and_o will_v have_v you_o to_o press_v after_o that_o which_o be_v the_o substance_n and_o life_n and_o bliss_n and_o well-being_n of_o all_o soul_n and_o this_o be_v not_o

in_o scripture_n yet_o i_o confess_v where_o man_n live_v in_o their_o weakness_n and_o blindness_n of_o that_o which_o be_v the_o chief_a good_a and_o can_v apprehend_v god_n as_o a_o spirit_n and_o what_o worship_n he_o require_v nor_o can_v know_v christ_n in_o the_o divine_a nature_n but_o according_a to_o the_o flesh_n so_o long_o i_o say_v a_o form_n be_v tolerable_a and_o man_n ought_v to_o state_n a_o form_n according_a to_o the_o best_a rule_n and_o example_n in_o scripture_n and_o in_o their_o time_n and_o place_n they_o may_v be_v good_a and_o useful_a but_o out_o of_o their_o time_n and_o place_n they_o become_v damageable_a and_o hurtful_a viz._n when_o they_o become_v to_o be_v live_v in_o and_o life_n and_o peace_n find_v in_o they_o and_o so_o man_n settle_v down_o in_o they_o then_o do_v they_o blind_a man_n of_o that_o which_o be_v the_o pure_a good_a and_o so_o the_o good_a of_o and_z in_o these_o form_n become_v evil_a and_o this_o i_o will_v have_v all_o

be_v somewhat_o more_o tolerable_a and_o to_o be_v approve_v of_o in_o some_o thing_n before_o those_o of_o the_o presbytery_n order_n because_o you_o have_v not_o as_o yet_o be_v as_o rigid_a and_o persecute_v of_o those_o who_o have_v dissent_v from_o your_o form_n as_o they_o have_v be_v but_o yet_o as_o you_o be_v but_o in_o a_o form_n you_o know_v not_o what_o you_o will_v do_v in_o case_n you_o have_v but_o as_o much_o power_n in_o your_o hand_n as_o the_o presbyterian_o have_v have_v in_o some_o place_n for_o they_o for_o these_o many_o year_n have_v have_v power_n and_o by_o that_o power_n have_v be_v on_o the_o suffer_a hand_n until_o of_o late_a and_o as_o yet_o you_o be_v sensible_a of_o the_o suffering_n but_o in_o case_n you_o live_v to_o have_v the_o whole_a nationall_n power_n give_v into_o your_o hand_n and_o thereby_o become_v strong_a i_o know_v then_o what_o you_o will_v do_v even_o persecute_v also_o all_o those_o who_o will_v not_o worship_n god_n in_o your_o form_n but_o you_o think_v you_o will_v not_o do_v so_o but_o i_o know_v you_o will_v do_v so_o for_o as_o you_o be_v but_o in_o a_o form_n you_o will_v persecute_v if_o you_o have_v but_o the_o whole_a power_n but_o those_o who_o you_o will_v persecute_v most_o will_v be_v those_o who_o have_v most_o of_o the_o divine_a nature_n in_o they_o for_o of_o all_o other_o these_o shall_v be_v sure_a of_o persecution_n for_o one_o formalist_n in_o some_o respect_n will_v bear_v with_o another_o yet_o all_o who_o be_v but_o in_o a_o form_n of_o what_o form_n soever_o will_v lend_v a_o hand_n to_o persecute_v those_o who_o live_v in_o christ_n and_o christ_n in_o they_o for_o what_o form_n be_v the_o pure_a be_v but_o state_v according_a to_o christ_n in_o the_o flesh_n and_o all_o formalist_n be_v but_o the_o son_n of_o the_o bondwoman_n and_o therefore_o they_o can_v cease_v to_o persecute_v the_o son_n of_o freedom_n but_o i_o know_v you_o can_v believe_v that_o ever_o you_o will_v do_v any_o such_o wickedness_n as_o this_o but_o alas_o you_o know_v your_o own_o heart_n no_o more_o than_o do_v hazaell_n when_o elisha_n tell_v he_o what_o mischief_n he_o will_v do_v afterward_o to_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n 2_o king_n 8.13_o yet_o at_o present_a there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n apparent_a among_o you_o but_o god_n have_v use_v you_o as_o instrument_n whereby_o there_o be_v more_o liberty_n to_o the_o freeborn_a son_n then_o have_v be_v heretofore_o but_o this_o freedom_n as_o yet_o be_v not_o such_o to_o those_o who_o be_v freeborn_a indeed_o but_o if_o they_o come_v to_o disapprove_v of_o your_o form_n or_o speak_v against_o they_o they_o shall_v be_v sure_a of_o a_o snap_n by_o you_o if_o occasion_n serve_v for_o it_o but_o yet_o i_o confess_v this_o liberty_n and_o freedom_n of_o you_o will_v give_v more_o toleration_n to_o twenty_o err_a sect_n rather_o than_o to_o one_o who_o have_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n true_o manifest_v in_o he_o in_o case_n he_o shall_v come_v to_o teach_v your_o foundation_n but_o the_o best_a freedom_n of_o such_o be_v to_o keep_v themselves_o unknown_a and_o then_o shall_v none_o have_v power_n to_o hurt_v they_o for_o indeed_o for_o all_o the_o liberty_n of_o conscience_n that_o be_v so_o much_o speak_v of_o yet_o if_o one_o shall_v appear_v to_o declare_v the_o mystery_n of_o godliness_n and_o the_o great_a mystery_n of_o sin_n and_o selfness_n in_o the_o son_n of_o man_n i_o be_o sure_a he_o shall_v not_o be_v long_o without_o persecution_n but_o there_o be_v some_o among_o you_o yea_o even_o of_o your_o own_o form_n who_o be_v grow_v so_o wise_a in_o their_o good_a think_n that_o they_o conceit_n and_o strong_o imagine_v that_o christ_n personal_a reign_n be_v already_o begin_v upon_o the_o earth_n because_o of_o such_o great_a wonder_n as_o they_o see_v bring_v to_o pass_v as_o they_o call_v they_o and_o all_o be_v because_o of_o the_o liberty_n themselves_o have_v get_v to_o use_v their_o own_o form_n with_o quietness_n and_o this_o do_v so_o strong_o work_v upon_o the_o fancy_n of_o some_o wise_a fool_n that_o from_o thence_o they_o conclude_v that_o the_o kingdom_n be_v give_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o that_o christ_n shall_v reign_v among_o they_o for_o a_o thousand_o year_n and_o so_o have_v quote_v and_o wrest_v many_o scripture_n to_o that_o very_a purpose_n but_o if_o these_o poor_a blind_a fool_n have_v but_o their_o eye_n open_v right_o they_o shall_v rather_o cry_v out_o and_o bid_v all_o the_o nation_n beware_v for_o the_o devil_n be_v let_v loose_a and_o be_v come_v down_o among_o they_o revel_v 12.12_o and_o this_o i_o be_o sure_a i_o can_v prove_v for_o i_o can_v discover_v very_o much_o of_o his_o work_n both_o in_o

in_o it_o then_o ever_o and_o if_o this_o be_v the_o beginning_n of_o the_o personal_a reign_n of_o christ_n i_o marvel_v what_o the_o

will_n i_o will_v not_o enlarge_v any_o more_o at_o present_a but_o bid_v you_o farewell_o another_o word_n to_o the_o anabaptist_n so_o call_v friend_n i_o mean_v not_o to_o dispute_v about_o the_o goodness_n or_o badness_n of_o your_o form_n for_o i_o have_v oftentimes_o do_v that_o before_o when_o i_o have_v no_o better_a employment_n as_o for_o your_o form_n i_o know_v well_o enough_o what_o it_o be_v and_o what_o you_o can_v reap_v out_o of_o it_o i_o will_v neither_o commend_v it_o nor_o discommend_v it_o but_o leave_v that_o to_o yourselves_o and_o other_o and_o as_o it_o be_v a_o

know_v that_o you_o may_v make_v a_o idol_n of_o your_o form_n as_o do_v all_o other_o formalist_n and_o where_o any_o form_n become_v idolise_v the_o same_o be_v abomination_n to_o the_o lord_n for_o

day_n the_o lord_n day_n though_o every_o day_n be_v the_o lord_n yet_o he_o have_v two_o day_n which_o he_o more_o usual_o claim_v for_o his_o own_o as_o we_o may_v see_v in_o scripture_n viz._n a_o

8._o jer._n 46.10_o lam._n 2.22_o etc._n etc._n and_o another_o day_n he_o have_v wherein_o he_o will_v show_v to_o man_n the_o mystery_n of_o his_o kingdom_n and_o the_o favour_n of_o his_o love_a

of_o god_n of_o none_o effect_v by_o your_o tradition_n for_o this_o be_v the_o do_v of_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n by_o which_o they_o be_v blind_v and_o can_v not_o know_v christ_n to_o be_v

of_o some_o ground_n in_o scripture_n for_o so_o do_v but_o yet_o you_o have_v no_o evidence_n nor_o command_v in_o all_o the_o new_a testament_n for_o observe_v the_o first_o day_n after_o the_o
