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

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

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

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

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

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

of_o god_n reveal_v in_o he_o and_o therefore_o he_o may_v well_o command_v it_o for_o that_o time_n though_o no_o gospel_n precept_n but_o whereas_o thou_o say_v that_o peter_n and_o the_o apostle_n do_v command_v in_o christ_n jesus_n the_o lord_n name_v water_n baptism_n be_v a_o thing_n utter_o false_a the_o scripture_n say_v no_o such_o thing_n but_o that_o peter_n command_v they_o to_o be_v

the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n do_v plain_o signify_v that_o their_o be_v baptize_v with_o water_n be_v some_o outward_a sign_n that_o they_o become_v the_o lord_n and_o be_v true_a believer_n in_o

pure_a and_o perfect_a gospel_n state_n and_o dispensation_n yet_o many_o christian_n who_o have_v a_o measure_n of_o sincere_a faith_n in_o christ_n be_v short_a of_o it_o and_o for_o the_o cause_n of_o such_o who_o be_v weak_a and_o but_o as_o babe_n in_o christ_n they_o see_v it_o meet_v in_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n to_o use_v it_o for_o some_o time_n but_o after_o the_o day_n of_o the_o

as_o a_o dead_a thing_n and_o be_v more_o fit_a to_o be_v bury_v than_o to_o be_v use_v and_o none_o ought_v to_o presume_v to_o raise_v it_o up_o again_o unless_o it_o can_v be_v say_v that_o the_o

as_o wide_o differ_v from_o they_o as_o white_a from_o black_a or_o as_o one_o contrary_a from_o another_o yea_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o show_v that_o tho._n case_n and_o his_o crew_n be_v more_o near_o to_o many_o call_v presbyterian_o and_o independent_o than_o to_o the_o honest_a quaker_n both_o in_o doctrine_n and_o some_o practice_n for_o the_o honest_a people_n call_v quaker_n own_v no_o carnal_a sing_v and_o do_v not_o own_o dance_n on_o any_o account_n and_o yet_o to_o my_o certain_a knowledge_n many_o call_v presbyterian_o do_v both_o own_o and_o practice_v carnal_a sing_n and_o dance_n and_o pipe_n and_o fiddle_n also_o at_o feast_n and_o wedding_n all_o which_o practice_n be_v more_o like_a to_o the_o mad_a crew_n of_o tho_n case_n than_o to_o the_o sober_a and_o honest_a quaker_n who_o own_v no_o sing_v but_o what_o be_v true_o spiritual_a and_o holy_a and_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v that_o when_o i._o m._n name_v the_o late_a sing_n &_o dance_v quaker_n that_o he_o

and_o angry_a people_n it_o do_v not_o appear_v that_o he_o intend_v a_o distinction_n as_o if_o some_o of_o we_o be_v not_o absurd_a nor_o angry_a or_o as_o when_o his_o brethren_n use_v to_o call_v we_o the_o curse_a quaker_n that_o they_o intend_v any_o distinction_n as_o if_o some_o of_o we_o be_v bless_v or_o if_o he_o have_v call_v we_o the_o late_a upstart_n heretical_a quaker_n as_o some_o have_v call_v we_o as_o if_o some_o or_o we_o be_v not_o late_a nor_o heretical_a but_o ancient_a &_o orthodox_n nor_o be_v it_o any_o real_a or_o true_a distinction_n to_o say_v some_o of_o the_o

as_o i_o say_v before_o i_o say_v again_o he_o make_v no_o distinction_n betwixt_o they_o he_o call_v mad_a quaker_n and_o other_o that_o be_v sober_a and_o there_o be_v many_o hundred_o in_o
