answered 1. SUch as desire to hear and know more of those admirable wonders of our Lord let them hearken to publick Fame and enquire of Mr. Sheldon at the Queens Chappel and of Mr. Digby in Queens-Street and others that have taken particular Lists of many of them and they may further inform them if they please as they ought for the great Mercies and admirable Wonders of God are not to be concealed or hid under a Bnshel I said of many of them because they could not of all for this man of God has wrought innumerable other Miracâ—es also in the face of the Church and in the view of the World which are not written in this little Paper nor in their Lists and these are written that you may believe in the Holy Ghost the Holy Catholick-Church and that believing you may have life everlasting Amen 2. Here I could and would check all such as stiff-necked and of uncircumcised hearts and ears do alwaies resist the Holy Ghost had I not stinted my self to the August capacity or inscription of this little Book a great volume in Folio being ready to come forth Entituled The most remarkable Miracles wrought by the Reverend Fathhr J. O. E. wherein all such Backbiters and Murmurers are clearly confuted 3. In the mean time to such as say First That he is a Cheater and Deluder and that what he does is but Sorcery and Witchcraft Secondly That many comes to him he cannot eure at all Thirdly That to some he gives but little ease or partly cures them not wholly Fourthly and lastly That others whom he hath cured whether partly or wholly do continue so but a little while and fall back again into a relapse and are afterwards as ill or worse then they were before to all which one after another I answer 4. To the First The Jews said to Christ that in Beelzebub Prince of the Devils he cast out Devils who then can wonder hat Jewish Hereticks should say the like to the Servant of Christ If they called Christ Beelzebub Sedueer and Cheater who can think that their Successours the Hereticks should give better Language to his Disciple Let them therefore say what they will and think what they please what then they can prove nothing of what they say nor yet disprove what is said and done against them Certainly if this holy man of God were a Seducer or Cheater as indeed he is not he does not seduce nor cheat us for in casting out Devils and in all his Cures he useth no Charms nor unknown words but he useth the Prayers of the Holy Catholick-Church the Sign of the Cross and the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost so that if he were I say a Deluder he does not delude us but the Church and Christ who commands us to hear and obey her But Christ and his Church cannot delude or deceive us therefore he is no Deluder nor Deceiver We never yet heard nor read that Seducers or Cheaters or Thieves or Murderers or Witches or Wizards or False Prophets or Priests of Baal could or did work Wonders by the Sign of the Cross and in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost as he does Nay it 's impossible they should as we proved in the Reconciler of Religions chap 3. num 9. and elsewhere Whence we conclude with the holy Scripture Iohn 9. 33. If this man were not of God he could not do any thing 5. To the second I answer did those whom he could not cure at all deserve to be cured had they requisite faith to be cured was it to the glory of God and good of their souls that they should be cured forsooth you know not why then do you murmure is' t because some were cured all must be cured is it because God is good you must be nought cannot God distribute his gifts as he will and to whom he please why then say you does he pretend to cure all I answer you mistake Sir he does not pretend nor profess to cure all no nor any at all but through the bowels of Charity he receiveth all and refuseth none and cures only such as please God He is not to the right or left hand of their cure but as please God whence to whom God please to give little he gives little and to whom God is willing to give much he gives much and that freely and gratis 6. To the third I answer were they who received but a little cure worthy of greater was the faith they had greater then the cure they received was it to the glory of God and to the good of their souls that they should receive more neither this do you know why then do you backbite was not the least cure or benefit they had by him supernatural and consequently miraculous and from God yes you will say why then do you despise or undervalue it forsooth because you are envious or ignorant or both No say you but Gods works are perfect Deut. 32. 4. I answer Gods works are perfect indeed every work in its own kind and therefore when he gives a little ease it s his perfect work as well as when he gives much or wholly cures otherwise a man that 's born blind should not be the work of God which to affirm were absurd Read Iohn 9. 1 3. and Mark 8. 24 25 26. and see my former answers to such objections in the Epistle Dedicatory of the reconciler of Religions 7. To the fourth and last I answer did they who were once cured and afterwards fall into a relapse give due thanks and glory to God for his benefits bountifully and gratis bestowed on them did they amend their life and conversation did their good works abound did their faith continue or persevere longer then their cure lasted did not St. Peter walk upon the water while his faith was strong but when he staggered did he not begin to sink did he not hear said to him you of little faith why didst thou doubt Let themselves lay hand on their brest and answer to this for your part you know nothing of it therefore you may sit down hold your peace and admire the wonderfull works of the holy Ghost 8. But all such as have received any benefit by him let them stand up and bless God and before all the world confess unto him for whether they have been cured partly or wholly God hath shewed them his mercies according to his good will and perhaps also according to their preparation or merit de congruo And if afterwards any of them has fallen into a relapse it was not Gods fault nor in any wise to be imputed to his servant by whom he hath once so cured them but either to themselves or to their demerits de condigno or may be to the further mercies and goodness of God towards them for his greater glory and everlasting good of their souls Quis enim cognovit sensum Domini aut quis consiliarius ejus fuit Rom. 11. 34.

Miracles not ceas'd CHAP. I. To his Gnace George Buckingham c. of his miraculous Cure c. 1. BY a Fall from your Horse my Lord you have lost the use of your right Hand but by the Prayers of a Roman Catholick Priest with the sign of the Cross in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost when you vowed and promised to God that if he should restore you to your health again you would become a Roman Catholick you were forthwith perfectly Cured Confiteantur Domino misericordiae ejus et mirabilia ejus fillius hominum Psal. 106. 9. Behold thou art made whole sin no more John 5. 14. Hitherto my Lord you have lived in Heresie and Sin henceforth be converted and godly given and delay not to pay and perform what you have vowed and promised to God for An unfaithful and foolish promise displeaseth him Eccles. 5. 3. And it were much better for your Lordship not to have vowed at all then not to perform after you have vowed Pay then your vows my Lord else know that what happened to you in Body is but a type or figure of what hereafter shall happen to your Soul you shall be cast off your Horse that is your Soul shall be separated from your Body and you shall lose the use of your right Hand that is your hope of everlasting bliss shall fade and perish for ever Perform therefore your promise my Lord which you have confirmed with an Oath no less then the holy and terrible Name of God and sin no more least some worse thing chance to thee John 5. 14. 2. Sin is the cause of all infirmities sin is the cause why some once perfectly cured do fall again into a greater relapse When the unclean spirit departeth out of a Man he wandreth through places without water seeking rest and not finding he saith I will return into my House whence I departed and when he is come he findeth it swept with a Besome and trimmed then he goeth and taketh seven other spirits worse then himself and entring in they dwell there and the last of that man is made worse then the first Luke 11. so it is with infirmities and this is the reason why many who were sometimes cured by the man of God are as ill now again or perhaps worse then they were before Therefore let such as received benefit by him give God thanks pay their vows and perform their promise to him and sin no more and so once made whole they shall be preserved and kept whole and sound as long as it is to the glory of God and good of their souls 3. Were not ten made clean and where are the nine Luke 17. 17. How many tens how many thousands ha's been made clean and cured by this holy man to God and how few of them returned to give glory and due thanks to God Give glory then to God my Lord give glory to God and good example to others be you this one of the ten that returns and give glory and due thanks to God for his benefits become a good and holy Roman Catholick according to your promise and so God will prosper and bless your Grace Amen 4. For your scruples in matters of Faith if your Grace have any Read I beseech you my Lord my little Book entituled The Reconciler of Religions where I clearly prove First Thaâ— the Roman Catholick Church is the onely true way to God out of which no man can be saved Secondly That the Protestant or Sectarian Religion is but a meer cheat a delusion an heresie an heathenisme Thirdly That the Roman Catholick Church is the insallible and inerrable Judge of all Controversies in matters of Faith Fourthly That the Protestant or Sectarian Bible is not the Word of God more then the Alcaran of the Turks and the old vulgar Latin Bible is defended Fifthly That the Protestant Bishops Ministers and Preachers are but Cheaters and Deluders false Prophets and Priests of Baal Sixthly and lastly All our Adversaries objections answered and confuted to all which I suppose they will not answer in haste otherwise then thou lyest Bellarmine or some such way which shall not be enough for me nor I believe for any other sincere and reasonable man In the mean time your Grace may be pleased to peruse this ensuing Challenge of one of your own Ministers lately converted Dr. Baylie to all Schismaticks Sectaries and Hereticks whatsoever CHAP.

Apostasie is not onely a renouncing of the Faith of Christ but the very name and title to Christianity No man will ever say that the Church of Rome had ever such a fall or fell thus 2. Heresie is an adhesion to some private and singular opinion or errour in Faith contrary to the general approved Doctrine of the Church If the Church of Rome did ever adhere to any singular or new Opinion disagreeable to the common received Doctrine of the Christian World I pray you satisfie me to these particulars viz. 1. By what general Councels was she ever condemned 2. Or which of the Fathers ever writ against her 3. Or by what authority was she otherwise reproved For it seems to me to be a thing very incongruous that so great a Church should be condemned by every one that hath a mind to condemn her 3.
