and the Turks who make this Confession in your Alcoran then you must believe the Old Testament and the Gospel of the New concerning Christ Jesus the Son of Mary and of the Seed of David according to the Flesh and that Jesus Christ came according to the promise of God to his Prophets who was Born of the Virgin Mary And Mahomet in his Alcoran confesses That Jesus Christ was not begotten by the will of Man who was conceived of Mary and that she should conceive and bring forth without the touching of Man. I say the Angel of God said to Mary He was conceived by the Holy Ghost and so called the Son of God And Mahomet saith in his Alcoran Page 30. Chap. 33. That John did affirm Christ to be the Messiah and to be the Word of God. Now if the Turks do believe this which Mahomet saith in his Alcoran then you must believe what Christ saith of himself and the Angel of God and what the Apostle saith of him John saith of him In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and God was the Word and all things were made by the Word and without him was not any thing made that was made and in the Word was Life and the Life was the Light of Men and that was the true Light which enlightens every Man that comes into the World. Now here is the Divine Light which is the Life in Christ the Word by which all things were made which enlightens every Man that comes into the World to their Salvation if they believe in the Light and to their Condemnation if they hate the Light And John saith This Word was made Flesh and dwelt amongst us and his Apostles beheld his Glory as the Glory of the only begotten of the Father full of Grace and Truth and of his fulness they did receive Grace for Grace and saith The Law came by Moses but Grace and Truth by Jesus Christ Now whereas the Emperor of the Turks saith That he is Commander and Guardian of the Christians Crucified God. Now in this he is mistaken for the Eternal Incomprehensible Invisible Everlasting God whose Divinity extends throughout the whole Earth who is God in Heaven above and in the Earth beneath to whom all Nations are but as the Drop of a Bucket this is the true Christians God whom they Serve and Worship in his Spirit and Truth which the Jews did not Crucifie nor could they Crucifie and it is Blasphemy for the Jews or any to say That they did Crucifie the true Christians Eternal Invisible God and great Ignorance for any to say That the true Christians God was Crucified or that the Eternal Incomprehensible Immortal God the Creator of all who is the God of the Spirits of all Flesh and the Breath of all Mankind is in his Power so that poor Mortals or Externals should say think or imagine that the Eternal Invisible Everlasting Immortal Incomprehensible God was or can be Crucified which they cannot comprehend which is the true Christians God. But Christ which was made of the Seed of David according to the Flesh who took not upon him the Nature of Angels but the Seed of Abraham He Suffered for us in the Flesh And so as Christ also hath once Suffered for Sins in the Flesh he the Just for the Unjust that Christ might bring us to God so God was not Crucified but Christ being put to Death or Crucified in the Flesh but quickened again in the Spirit and rose again and sits at the right Hand of God this Peter one of the Apostles of Jesus testifieth and the true Christians now believe it and though Christ was Crucified through Weakness that is through the Flesh yet he is alive and liveth by the Power of God 2 Cor. 13. So it is clear that the Eternal and Invisible Incomprehensible God was not nor cannot be Crucified but Christ the Son of God suffered according to the Flesh not in his God-head So Christ dyed for our Sins according to the Scripture of the Old and New Testament For as in Adam all dyed so even in Christ shall all be made alive and that Christ by the Grace of God should taste Death for every Man So it was not the Invisible Eternal Incomprehensible God that was Crucified and Dyed and did taste Death for every Man but Christ according to the Flesh who was manifest to take away our Sin and in him there was no Sin so Christ was manifest to destroy the Works of the Devil and Christ through his Death destroys Death that Sin brought and the Devil the Power of Death And about the ninth hour when Jesus Christ hanged upon the Cross He cryed with a loud Voice saying My God my God why hast thou forsaken me So it is clear the Eternal God did not Dye nor was Crucified but Christ was put to Death in the Flesh this testifies Mathew one of Christs Apostles so he was the one Offering who made an end of all the Offerings among the Jews through the offering up of the Body of Jesus once for all so the Man Christ Jesus offered up himself one Sacrifice for Sins so by that one Offering he hath perfected forever them that are Sanctified so he is the Propitiation Offering and Sacrifice for the Sins of the whole World yea Jesus Christ which was of the Seed of David and so according to the Scripture Christ Dyed for our Sins and he was buried and rose again the third Day according to the Scriptures and after he was risen from the Dead he was seen of the twelve Apostles and again He was seen of above five hundred Brethren at once that were Believers in him and this was after he was Dead Buried and Risen but none of the Princes of the World knew him for had they known Christ they would not have Crucified him but we know now that Christ being raised from the Dead dies no more and Death hath no more Dominion over Christ in that he died unto Sin and for the Sins of the whole World but now he being raised from the Dead he is set at the right Hand of God and therefore Jesus of Nazareth a Man approved of God by Miracles Wonders and Signs which God did by him this Jesus the Son of Mary the Jews with their wicked hands did take Crucified and Slay but it was God who loosed the Pangs of Death because it was not possible that he should be holden of it and though the Jews did Crucifie Jesus Slew him and Hanged him on a Tree yet God hath raised him up the third Day and God hath Exalted him at his right Hand to be a Prince and a Saviour to give Repentance c. and forgiveness of Sins and so Christs Apostles were Witnesses how God raised him from the Dead so you may here see it was not God that was Crucified and Dyed for he raised Christ from the Dead on the third Day and shewed him openly to his Apostles

and they did Eat and Drink with Jesus Christ after that God had raised him up from the Dead and he commanded his Apostles to Preach to the People and testifie that it was he which was ordained of God to be Judge of Quick and Dead and to him give all the Prophets and the Apostles of God witness That though the Name of Jesus whosoever believed in him should receive remission of Sins neither is there Salvation in any other for there is no Name under Heaven given amongst Men whereby we must be saved but by the Name of Jesus of Nazareth whom the Jews Crucified whom God hath raised from the Dead for God said to David That of the Fruit of his Loynes according to the Flesh God would raise up Christ to sit on his Throne And David he seeing this before spoke of the Resurrection of Christ That his Soul was not left in Hell neither did his Flesh see Corruption So though the Jews Crucified him and a Souldier thrust his Speer into his Side and though he was Crucified and hanged on a Tree and Slain Dead and Buried him did God raise up the third Day and he appeared to his Apostles and Disciples and did Eat and Drink with them after he was Risen who were the faithful Witnesses That God raised him up from the Dead who is ascended up into Heaven at the right Hand of God who being the brightness of Gods Glory and the express Image of his Substance and upholding all things by the Word of his Power when he had by himself purged our Sins sat down at the right Hand of the Majesty on High whom the Heavens must receive until the times of restitution of all things which God hath spoken by the Mouth of all his Holy Prophets since the World began and he that descended is the same also that ascended far above all Heavens that he might fill all things who led Captivity Captive and gave Gifts unto Men c. And we have Redemption from Christs Blood even Forgiveness of our Sins who hath delivered us from the Devil the Power of Darkness who is the Seed of the Woman which bruiseth the old Serpents Head which deceived Adam and Eve which God promised to Adam That the Seed of the Woman should bruise the Serpents Head in which Seed viz Christ all Nations are Blessed who is the Image of the invisible God the first born of every Creature for by him were all things Created that are in the Heaven and that are in the Earth visible and invisible whether they be Thrones or Dominions Principalities or Powers all things were created by him and for him and he was before all things and by him all things consists and Christ said in his prayer to his Father This is Eternal Life that they might know thes the only true God and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent And Jesus desired of God his Father saying That those whom God hath given him might be with him where he was that they might behold his Glory which God hath given him for he loved him before the foundation of the World therefore saith Christ now O Father Glorifie thou me with thy own self with the Glory which I had with thee before the World was and Christ said to his Discples after he was risen from the Dead All Power in Heaven and in Earth is given unto me and he bid his Disciples go into all the World and Preach the Gospel to every Creature c. And then after the Lord Jesus Christ had spoken to his Disciples he was received up into Heaven and set down at the right Hand of God And now we who are the Believers in Christ Jesus and true Christians we do live unto him and if we dye we dye unto the Lord whether we live or die we are the Lords for this end Christ both died revived and rose that he might be Lord both of the Dead and of the Living and he is Judg both of Quick and Dead who is the only one Mediator betwixt God and Man even the man Christ Jesus who makes intercession to God for his people and is able to save to the utmost all that come to God by him whoever lives to make Intercession for them who is set down at the right Hand of God in Heaven who is the Prince of the Kings of the Earth who said to John I am the first and the last I am he that Liveth and was Dead and behold I am alive for evermore And therefore Sultan Mahomet Emperor of the Turks who saith I will persue your Crucified God wherein he is mistaken it was not the Eternal Incomprehensible God but Christ that was Crucified and Died for his and all mens Sins if the Emperor of the Turks will believe it if not he will die in his Sin And if he thinks to persue Christ that was Crucified he is like unto the Jewes that did crucifie him But Christ is risen from the Dead and is alive and dies no more Death hath no more dominion over him nor hath Mahomet neither and so is alive again lives for evermore and is set down in Heaven at the right Hand of God out of the Jews and Turks reach to persue so is far above their vain Imaginations and Reach and he that hath all power in Heaven and Earth given to him who is the Prince of the Kings of the Earth and King of Kings and Lord of Lords and rules all Nations with a Rod of Iron he is able to daish them to pieces like a Potters Vessel and to abase the Pride of haughty Men and to save and deliver his People out of the hands of the Destroyers for he gives unto his Believers and Follower Eternal Life and Christ who laid down his Life for his Sheep said to the Jews He had power to lay down his Life and he had power to take it up again This Commandment I have received of my Father saith he so it was not God his Father that Dyed and Jesus said His Sheep heard his Voice and followed him and saith he I give unto them Eternal Life and they shall never perish neither shall any Man pluck them out of my Hand and saith Christ my Father that gave them me is greater then all and no Man is able to pluck them out of my Fathers Hand Here the Emperor of the Turks may see that neither he nor the Jewes nor no Man upon the Earth is able to pluck Christs Sheep out of his Hands Jesus Christ saith so who hath all power in Heaven and Earth given to him and is the Prince of the Kings of the Earth and King of Kings and Lord of Lords And your own Alcoran saith that Jesus will be a Witness in the day of Judgment against them that obey not his Law and do not believe in him and here the Emperor may see that Christ is able to defend his Sheep and save them and none is able to pluck them out of
