A47167	A refutation of three opposers of truth by plain evidence of the holy Scripture, viz. I. Of Pardon Tillinghast, who pleadeth for water-baptism, its being a Gospel-precept, and opposeth Christ within, as a false Christ. To which is added, something concerning the Supper, &c. II. Of B. Keech, in his book called, A tutor for children, where he disputeth against the sufficiency of the light within, in order of salvation; and calleth Christ in the heart, a false Christ in the secret chamber. II. Of Cotton Mather, who in his appendix to his book, called, Memorable providences, relating to witchcrafts, &c. doth so weakly defend his father Increase Mather from being justly chargeable with abusing the honest people called Quakers, that he doth the more lay open his fathers nakedness; and beside the abuses and injuries that his father had cast upon that people, C. Mather, the son, addeth new abuses of his own. And a few words of a letter to John Cotton, called a minister, at Plymouth in New England. By George Keith.

water_n baptism_n of_o you_o be_v neither_o john_n nor_o the_o same_o that_o some_o of_o christ_n disciple_n and_o apostle_n administer_v for_o some_o time_n see_v you_o can_v show_v no_o line_n of_o

a_o priest_n and_o therefore_o your_o water_n baptism_n be_v a_o mere_a idol_n like_o the_o golden_a calf_n that_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n set_v up_o when_o moses_n be_v absent_a but_o suppose_v your_o water_n baptism_n be_v as_o good_a as_o john_n which_o it_o be_v not_o go_v and_o learn_v what_o that_o mean_v mark_v 9.5_o how_o when_o moses_n and_o elias_n and_o you_o know_v that_o christ_n

he_o and_o also_o a_o answer_n to_o his_o gross_a calumny_n and_o false_a accusation_n that_o in_o his_o ignorance_n he_o raise_v up_o against_o both_o the_o principle_n and_o person_n of_o the_o people_n call_v in_o scorn_n quaker_n first_o he_o grant_v that_o the_o light_n in_o every_o man_n contain_v in_o it_o the_o law_n or_o substance_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n write_v or_o implant_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o worst_a of_o man_n next_o he_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o it_o do_v show_v or_o teach_v every_o man_n that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n which_o do_v create_v all_o thing_n and_o that_o he_o be_v the_o sovereign_a lord_n of_o the_o whole_a creation_n that_o he_o be_v to_o be_v worship_v also_o that_o it_o do_v convince_v of_o sin_n but_o not_o of_o every_a sin_n also_o that_o it_o do_v teach_v righteousness_n towards_o man_n and_o to_o render_v due_a respect_n unto_o all_o and_o to_o do_v unto_o all_o man_n as_o they_o will_v be_v do_v unto_o and_o from_o this_o he_o conclude_v say_v therefore_o take_v heed_n and_o walk_v according_a to_o this_o light_n for_o it_o be_v a_o candle_n light_v and_o set_v up_o by_o the_o lord_n in_o thy_o intellectual_n answ._n this_o seem_v a_o fair_a acknowledgement_n and_o be_v more_o than_o many_o do_v acknowledge_v for_o if_o man_n be_v to_o take_v heed_n unto_o it_o and_o walk_v according_a to_o it_o as_o he_o say_v they_o ought_v it_o be_v give_v of_o god_n for_o a_o rule_n of_o obedience_n unto_o man_n and_o therefore_o the_o scripture_n be_v not_o the_o only_a rule_n as_o many_o affirm_v but_o that_o he_o say_v it_o do_v convince_v of_o sin_n but_o not_o of_o every_o sin_n this_o he_o only_o affirm_v and_o do_v not_o prove_v in_o the_o least_o and_o see_v it_o contain_v in_o it_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o law_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n it_o follow_v most_o evident_o that_o be_v due_o improve_v and_o the_o mind_n due_o apply_v unto_o it_o it_o convince_v of_o all_o sin_n against_o the_o first_o covenant_n next_o as_o to_o sin_n against_o the_o second_o covenant_n call_v the_o gospel_n or_o new_a covenant_n if_o the_o gentile_n who_o have_v not_o hear_v the_o gospel_n outward_o preach_v have_v nothing_o of_o the_o law_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n reveal_v or_o make_v know_v unto_o they_o they_o can_v be_v say_v to_o sin_n against_o it_o for_o where_o no_o law_n be_v there_o be_v no_o transgression_n if_o then_o these_o gentile_n who_o never_o as_o yet_o hear_v the_o gospel_n or_o christ_n outward_o preach_v have_v only_o the_o law_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n they_o be_v only_a sinner_n against_o that_o covenant_n and_o consequent_o that_o light_n in_o the_o gentile_n do_v convince_v they_o of_o every_o sin_n that_o they_o be_v or_o can_v be_v guilty_a of_o in_o the_o gentile_a state_n but_o see_v he_o have_v grant_v that_o there_o be_v some_o sin_n that_o they_o be_v guilty_a of_o that_o the_o first_o covenant_n in_o they_o do_v not_o convince_v they_o of_o it_o follow_v most_o necessary_o that_o there_o be_v some_o law_n or_o light_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n in_o they_o and_o thus_o it_o do_v plain_o appear_v that_o the_o snare_n or_o net_n which_o this_o benj._n keech_n have_v be_v make_v for_o the_o people_n call_v quaker_n he_o be_v entangle_v himself_o therein_o but_o we_o can_v most_o clear_o prove_v from_o scripture_n that_o the_o light_n that_o be_v general_o in_o man_n the_o heathen_n not_o except_v have_v in_o it_o some_o small_a degree_n of_o a_o discovery_n or_o revelation_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n or_o new_a covenant_n 1_o sy_n because_o it_o reveal_v to_o man_n general_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n that_o lead_v to_o repentance_n according_a to_o rom._n 2.4_o yea_o the_o riches_n of_o his_o goodness_n and_o forbearance_n and_o long-suffering_a and_o therefore_o it_o reveal_v in_o man_n universal_o that_o god_n be_v merciful_a and_o gracious_a as_o well_o as_o just_a and_o pardon_v sin_n and_o transgression_n to_o every_o one_o that_o true_o repent_v and_o turn_v from_o sin_n and_o this_o may_v be_v prove_v also_o from_o b._n keech_n own_o confession_n for_o he_o plain_o confess_v that_o the_o light_n in_o every_o man_n teach_v he_o that_o god_n be_v the_o best_a the_o high_a and_o chief_a be_v therefore_o it_o do_v clear_o follow_v that_o the_o light_n in_o man_n teach_v they_o that_o god_n be_v a_o gracious_a god_n and_o one_o that_o pardon_v iniquity_n otherwise_o he_o can_v not_o be_v understand_v to_o be_v the_o best_a be_v for_o see_v among_o the_o child_n of_o man_n many_o man_n have_v that_o goodness_n that_o incline_v they_o to_o forgive_v the_o great_a trespass_n upon_o their_o repentance_n and_o ask_v forgiveness_n therefore_o god_n himself_o be_v infinite_o more_o gracious_a and_o ready_a to_o forgive_v 2_o dly_z the_o gentile_n or_o heathen_n of_o the_o better_a sort_n who_o have_v not_o hear_v christ_n outward_o preach_v unto_o they_o have_v offer_v up_o sacrifice_n unto_o the_o only_a true_a god_n as_o well_o as_o the_o jew_n and_o aristotle_n though_o a_o heathen_a do_v affirm_v that_o it_o be_v proper_a to_o mankind_n universal_o to_o sacrifice_n unto_o god_n and_o as_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n as_o b._n keech_n confess_v be_v a_o spiritual_a and_o shadow_a ministration_n give_v in_o mercy_n unto_o man_n to_o discover_v and_o hold_v forth_o unto_o they_o the_o glorious_a and_o great_a sacrifice_n and_o atonement_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n the_o same_o may_v be_v say_v of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o these_o gentile_n who_o sacrifice_v unto_o the_o only_a true_a god_n and_o if_o it_o be_v say_v the_o gentile_n who_o do_v so_o sacrifice_n as_o job_n and_o other_o do_v it_o be_v teach_v by_o some_o outward_a mean_n i_o answer_v allow_v it_o so_o to_o be_v so_o do_v also_o the_o jew_n and_o people_n of_o israel_n but_o as_o among_o the_o jew_n so_o among_o the_o gentile_n the_o light_n of_o god_n in_o they_o do_v accord_n in_o
