A78215	The nevv birth: in which is brought forth the new creature. VVith a description of the true marks and characters thereof; which being manifested and declared, is the true and proper ground of visible communion, in which the sons or children of God are to receive and own one another as brethren, although they differ (for want of light) in some particular ordinances. Whereunto is annexed a briefe description of Antichrist, not only without men, but within them also. / By R.B. an unworthy servant of Iesus Christ, who desireth and prayeth for the unity of all saints.

a_o character_n or_o mark_n of_o the_o new_a birth_n now_o in_o the_o handle_n of_o this_o doctrine_n i_o shall_v take_v this_o method_n 1._o particular_n the_o doctrine_n open_v 3_o particular_n to_o

that_o which_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o spirit_n and_o be_v spirit_n and_o this_o spiritual_a birth_n be_v that_o which_o i_o call_v the_o new_a birth_n or_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n and_o first_o i_o call_v it_o the_o new_a birth_n new_a 3_o reason_n why_o the_o spiritual_a birth_n be_v call_v new_a for_o these_o reason_n 1._o because_o it_o be_v beget_v and_o create_v in_o a_o soul_n after_o the_o birth_n of_o nature_n for_o say_v the_o apostle_n paul_n in_o the_o 1_o cor._n 15.46_o that_o be_v not_o first_o which_o be_v spiritual_a but_o that_o which_o be_v natural_a and_o afterward_o that_o which_o be_v spiritual_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v call_v the_o new_a birth_n new_a regeneratio_fw-la or_o new_a birth_n birth_n in_o mat._n 19.28_o and_o a_o be_v bear_v again_o john_n 3.3_o 2._o because_o that_o which_o be_v beget_v and_o bear_v in_o this_o new_a birth_n be_v a_o new_a creature_n 2_o cor._n 5.17_o 3._o because_o it_o be_v call_v the_o new_a man_n eph._n 4.24_o and_o col._n 3.10_o second_o it_o be_v call_v the_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n for_o this_o reason_n because_o that_o god_n by_o his_o spirit_n do_v beget_v and_o create_v and_o bring_v forth_o this_o new_a creature_n in_o a_o soul_n and_o this_o work_n of_o god_n spirit_n be_v put_v in_o opposition_n to_o natural_a birth_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o text_n not_o of_o female_a of_o ex_fw-la same_o guinibus_fw-la it_o be_v in_o the_o plural_a number_n to_o show_v that_o natural_a birth_n do_v proceed_v both_o from_o the_o male_a and_o female_a blood_n nor_o of_o the_o will_n of_o the_o flesh_n nor_o of_o the_o will_n of_o man_n but_o of_o god_n have_v show_v what_o the_o new_a birth_n be_v and_o what_o it_o be_v to_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n i_o shall_v in_o the_o next_o place_n give_v a_o brief_a description_n of_o the_o new_a creature_n which_o be_v beget_v and_o bear_v of_o god_n in_o this_o new_a birth_n and_o i_o shall_v define_v it_o thus_o that_o it_o be_v a_o divine_a be_v creature_n a_o description_n of_o the_o new_a creature_n call_v the_o new_a man_n which_o the_o lord_n by_o his_o spirit_n have_v create_v and_o implant_v in_o a_o soul_n after_o the_o image_n of_o himself_o in_o righteousness_n and_o true_a holiness_n eph._n 4.24_o compare_v with_o col._n 3.10_o so_o that_o as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o first_o adam_n that_o he_o beget_v a_o son_n in_o his_o own_o likeness_n 5.3_o gen._n 5.3_o after_o his_o own_o image_n why_o so_o the_o lord_n by_o his_o spirit_n do_v beget_v son_n in_o his_o likeness_n and_o after_o his_o own_o image_n therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n paul_n as_o we_o have_v bear_v the_o image_n of_o the_o earthy_a we_o shall_v also_o by_o this_o new_a birth_n bear_v the_o image_n of_o the_o heavenly_a 1_o cor._n 15.49_o qu._n

the_o fiery_a serpent_n 3._o it_o be_v a_o eminent_a type_n of_o christ_n john_n 3.14_o 15._o but_o notwithstanding_o when_o the_o people_n set_v this_o appointment_n of_o god_n which_o be_v so_o useful_a and_o good_a for_o the_o people_n in_o the_o room_n of_o god_n and_o when_o they_o set_v that_o which_o be_v but_o a_o type_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o room_n or_o in_o stead_n of_o christ_n you_o see_v it_o be_v break_v to_o piece_n by_o hezekiah_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n do_v justify_v he_o therein_o and_o say_v he_o do_v that_o which_o be_v right_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o lord_n because_o it_o be_v in_o the_o room_n or_o stead_n of_o god_n why_o so_o any_o ordinance_n or_o appointment_n of_o christ_n whether_o it_o be_v baptism_n or_o church-fellowship_n or_o break_v of_o bread_n or_o whether_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n and_o performance_n set_v up_o in_o the_o room_n of_o christ_n be_v antichrist_n but_o it_o be_v further_a to_o be_v observe_v that_o when_o hezekiah_n have_v break_v the_o brazen_a serpent_n he_o call_v it_o 〈◊〉_d it_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d nehushtan_n that_o be_v a_o piece_n of_o brass_n by_o which_o name_n he_o show_v that_o in_o itself_o it_o be_v but_o a_o piece_n of_o brass_n and_o have_v no_o deity_n in_o it_o and_o therefore_o not_o to_o be_v adore_v and_o worship_v why_o so_o the_o holy_a and_o good_a ordinance_n of_o god_n through_o which_o in_o the_o right_a use_n of_o they_o the_o lord_n do_v manifest_v himself_o yet_o if_o set_v up_o in_o the_o room_n of_o christ_n and_o make_v the_o great_a character_n of_o a_o soul_n happiness_n which_o at_o the_o last_o to_o such_o as_o so_o set_v they_o up_o they_o will_v prove_v to_o be_v mere_a nehushtan_n as_o sound_v brass_n and_o a_o tinkle_a cymbal_n thus_o have_v speak_v brief_o to_o the_o first_o particular_a i_o come_v to_o the_o second_o in_o which_o be_v to_o be_v remember_v first_o that_o the_o greek_a preposition_n anti_fw-la signify_v against_o or_o a_o adversary_n to_o and_o second_o that_o christ_n signify_v anoint_v to_o show_v unto_o we_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v god_n anoint_v and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o all_o that_o be_v christ_n every_o true_a believe_a soul_n be_v the_o lord_n be_v anoint_v 1_o john_n 2.20_o 27._o only_o here_o be_v all_o the_o difference_n christ_n be_v anoint_v above_o his_o fellow_n psal_n 45.7_o so_o that_o according_a to_o this_o interpretation_n the_o word_n do_v signify_v that_o whatsoever_o be_v contrary_a to_o or_o a_o adversary_n against_o the_o lord_n anointed_n to_o wit_n christ_n and_o those_o that_o be_v christ_n be_v antichrist_n whether_o it_o be_v any_o thing_n against_o christ_n within_o we_o or_o whether_o it_o be_v any_o thing_n against_o christ_n without_o we_o whether_o it_o be_v that_o which_o be_v against_o christ_n at_o rome_n or_o against_o christ_n in_o england_n whether_o it_o be_v any_o thing_n against_o christ_n in_o a_o nation_n or_o against_o christ_n in_o a_o congregation_n antichrist_n be_v antichrist_n wheresoever_o it_o be_v thus_o have_v give_v a_o brief_a description_n of_o antichrist_n and_o the_o signification_n of_o his_o name_n i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o make_v a_o little_a improvement_n thereof_o by_o way_n of_o use_n and_o see_v we_o live_v in_o the_o last_o time_n in_o which_o be_v many_o antichrist_n i_o conceive_v it_o may_v not_o be_v amiss_o to_o exhort_v all_o person_n in_o general_a and_o in_o particular_a serious_o to_o examine_v whether_o there_o be_v not_o more_o or_o less_o of_o antichrist_n in_o they_o or_o set_v up_o by_o they_o and_o the_o reason_n why_o i_o press_v this_o duty_n be_v this_o because_o that_o i_o do_v hearty_o wish_v and_o desire_n that_o person_n will_v not_o only_o labour_v to_o throw_v down_o antichrist_n without_o they_o but_o also_o to_o be_v as_o zealous_a and_o willing_a to_o throw_v down_o antichrist_n within_o they_o for_o when_o person_n do_v labour_n to_o throw_v down_o antichrist_n at_o rome_n and_o to_o throw_v down_o antichrist_n in_o england_n to_o throw_v down_o antichristian_a power_n and_o antichristian_a ministry_n and_o antichristian_a maintenance_n and_o many_o other_o particular_n that_o may_v be_v name_v and_o yet_o all_o this_o while_n have_v a_o spirit_n of_o antichrist_n within_o they_o and_o by_o the_o power_n thereof_o to_o throw_v down_o antichrist_n without_o they_o it_o be_v no_o more_o then_o for_o satan_n to_o cast_v out_o satan_n but_o it_o may_v be_v most_o person_n to_o who_o these_o present_n shall_v come_v will_v be_v apt_a to_o justify_v themselves_o and_o say_v we_o have_v not_o a_o antichristian_a spirit_n and_o therefore_o this_o do_v not_o concern_v we_o well_o if_o it_o be_v so_o i_o shall_v rejoice_v but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o because_o it_o be_v the_o property_n of_o antichrist_n to_o pretend_v that_o he_o be_v for_o christ_n and_o although_o he_o be_v a_o minister_n of_o satan_n yet_o he_o do_v transform_v himself_o into_o a_o angel_n of_o light_n i_o shall_v therefore_o propound_v some_o particular_a which_o through_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n may_v help_v those_o who_o it_o may_v concern_v to_o know_v whether_o antichrist_n be_v in_o they_o or_o no_o and_o first_o it_o be_v to_o be_v remember_v that_o whatsoever_o be_v set_v up_o in_o the_o room_n or_o instead_o of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v antichrist_n and_o that_o be_v remember_v i_o will_v begin_v first_o with_o a_o covetous_a worldly_a mind_a man_n which_o hunt_v for_o the_o world_n as_o a_o raven_a wolf_n for_o his_o prey_n and_o the_o world_n he_o must_v have_v though_o with_o never_o so_o great_a oppression_n of_o the_o poor_a and_o yet_o it_o may_v be_v pretend_v for_o christ_n too_o now_o let_v such_o a_o earthly_a mind_a man_n examine_v in_o truth_n whether_o his_o covetousness_n do_v not_o reign_n and_o rule_v over_o he_o in_o stead_n of_o christ_n and_o whether_o he_o do_v not_o set_v the_o idol_n of_o his_o covetousness_n in_o his_o heart_n instead_o of_o christ_n and_o 6._o and_o john_n 12.5_o 6._o judas-like_a have_v rather_o have_v the_o bag_n in_o his_o hand_n than_o christ_n in_o his_o

instead_o of_o christ_n all_o which_o be_v antichrist_n and_o upon_o this_o account_n we_o may_v conclude_v with_o the_o apostle_n john_n that_o even_o now_o there_o be_v many_o 2.18_o many_o 1_o john_n 2.18_o antichrist_n who_o dives-like_a be_v clothe_v in_o 20._o in_o luke_n 16_o 49_o 20._o purple_a and_o fine_a linen_n and_o fare_v delicious_o every_o day_n when_o poor_a lazarus_n lie_v

be_v extortioner_n unjust_a adulterer_n proud_a and_o passionate_a but_o on_o the_o contrary_a i_o fast_o twice_o in_o the_o week_n and_o give_v tithe_n of_o all_o that_o i_o possess_v and_o pray_v oft_o and_o give_v alm_n to_o the_o poor_a and_o many_o other_o thing_n but_o will_v you_o say_v this_o be_v antichrist_n too_o i_o answer_v that_o those_o duty_n in_o themselves_o be_v not_o antichrist_n but_o when_o they_o be_v put_v in_o the_o room_n of_o christ_n and_o set_v up_o as_o a_o man_n righteousness_n and_o to_o make_v they_o his_o saviour_n this_o be_v antichrist_n for_o christ_n be_v the_o only_a saviour_n of_o they_o that_o believe_v and_o not_o man_n duty_n and_o performance_n i_o have_v only_o one_o particular_a more_o concern_v this_o first_o branch_n of_o antichrist_n which_o i_o can_v hearty_o wish_v if_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o there_o may_v be_v no_o cause_n to_o mention_v it_o but_o so_o it_o be_v that_o when_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v meet_v together_o this_o antichrist_n also_o come_v among_o they_o and_o sit_v in_o the_o temple_n of_o god_n and_o by_o his_o power_n even_o in_o the_o child_n of_o god_n themselves_o cause_v they_o to_o exercise_v dominion_n over_o each_o other_o faith_n and_o cause_v as_o it_o be_v ephraim_n to_o envy_n judah_n and_o judah_n to_o vex_v ephraim_n but_o god_n have_v promise_v
