A30025	A short view of the Antinomian errours with a briefe and plaine answer to them, as the heads of them lye in order in the next page of this book : being a nest of cursed errors hatched by hereticks, fed and nourished by their proselites : being taken as they were flying abroad were brought as the eagle doth her young ones to see if they could endure to looke upon the sun-beams of truth with fixed eyes, the which they could not : were presently adjudged to be a bastard brood, and their necks chopt off, and their carkasses throwne to the dunghill.

World that he gave his onely begotten sonne that whosoever beleeveth in him should not perish but have everlasting life John 3.16 He spared not his owne sonne but delivered him up for us all how shall he not with him freely give us all things Rom. 8.32 then is not this of free grace and Christ gave his life a ransome for all the Elect 1 Tim. 2.6 he gave himselfe for his Church Ephe. 5.25 he gave his life a ransome for many Matt. 20 28. he gave himselfe for us to redeeme us from all iniquity and to purifie unto himselfe a peculiar people zealous of good workes Titus 2.14 saith he I lay downe my life no man taketh it from me I lay it downe of my selfe I have power to lay it downe and I have power to take it up againe John 10.17.18 and then is not this out of free grace and the spirit of God worketh where it listeth John 3.8 then if the spirit of God reach out unto us the righteousnesse of Christ is it not of free grace and out hand of faith by which we receive the righteousnesse of Christ this faith is the gift of God Ephe. 2.8 then is not this also out of free grace thus by grace ye are saved through faith and that not of your selves it is the gift of God Ephe. 2.8 then let us speake of this to the praise of the glory of his grace wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloued Ephe. 1.6 And thus farre of the causes of our justification in the sight of God being all that are mentioned in the Scripture except that of workes which justifies our faith and persons in the sight of men as James speaketh James 2.24 but this we are not to speake of at this time From these caules we may easily see when we are justified in the sight of God I grant in the decree of God this righteousnesse of Christ was purchased vertually for all the Elect a● well before his coming in the flesh as afterward for he was the Lambe slain from the foundation of the World Rev. 13.8 Again I grant that this purchase was actually paid above sixteene hundred yeeres agon when Christ in our nature died actually and really on the Crosse for beleevers but to say that the righteousnesse of Christ is really ours before that the spirit of God doth reach it forth unto us or before we have any faith or calling that is before that we have either eye to see it or hand of faith to receive and take it this I say is a cursed error suggested by the father of lies into those that are led by him to beleeve lyes For was that man in the Gospell who had a legion of divels within him justified when as the presence of Christ was a torment to him and he cryed out Jesus thou sonne of God most high I beseech thee torment me not I must needs confesse in one thing he was like our Antenomeans for no bonds could hold him but when the divels were cast out the man was in another mind he that could not abide the presence of Christ before now he can beseech Christ that he might be with him Luke 8.18.38 Then shall we be so foolish to thinke that the holy spirit of Christ will dwell in that foule and filthy heart where the divell reignes and leads them captive at his will 2 Tim. 2.26 but such are all the Elect before they be recovered out of the snare of the divell shall we thinke that the holy spirit of Christ was in Mary Magdalen when those seven divels kept their randevouse within her What agreement hath Christ with the divell that he should be as an underling in that soule where the divell reignes Doth Christ come to justifie such a soule and not to sanctifie it at the same time Doth he not say come out of Babylon and be not partaker of her sinnes that ye receive not of her plagues Rev. 18.4 Come out from among them and be ye seperate saith the Lord touch not the uncleane thing and I will receive you and I will dwell in you 2 Cor. 6.16 17. but will Christ come into the strong mans house and not bind him nor spoile his goods is not Christ stronger then he Luke 11.21 22. Why then will Christ live in that soule that Sathan hath in possession it may be twenty or forty yeeres togther before faith or effectuall calling be truely wrought in it If ye be the Temple of God and his spirit dwell in you if any man desile the Temple of God him shall God destroy let no man deceive himselfe 1 Cor. 3.16.17 Doth Christ say this and will he himselfe live and dwell among divels especially where they rule and reigne I hope no Christian truly justified will harbour such blasphemous thoughts within him lest they should say he hath an uncleane spirit Marke 3. ●0 Secondly But will they yeeld and say God forbid that we should thinke that the holy Spirit of God should dwell and live in that soul that the divell hath in possession then I reply and say if any man have not the Spirit of Christ he is for the present none of his Ye are not in the flesh but on the spirit if so be the Spirit of God dwell in you Rom. 8.9 There shall no flesh be justified in his sight Rom. 3.20 but saith Paul You in times pasted were Gentles in the flesh at that time yee were without Christ and without God in the world but now in Christ Jesus yee who were sometimes afarre off are made nigh by the blood of Christ Ephe. 2.12.13 Then is the righteousnesse of Christ wrought in us by the Spirit of Christ that makes us cleane temples for his Spirit to dwell in and will not his holy Spirit live among divells in a cage together of uncleane and filthy lusts and are they for the present without Christ and without God in the world and in the flesh when as no flesh living shall be justified in the fight of God and having not the Spirit of God they for the present are none of his then how dare any man say that they are justified in the sight of God as soone as they had any being in this world O horrible and blasphemous doctrine that makes the pure and holy Spirit of God to be a companion yea a very band to cursed divells and filthy lusts else how can he live where the divells reigne but thou O blessed Spirit of God art of purer cyes then to behold evill and canst not look on iniquity with approbation Hab. 1.13 But ye in time past walked according to the course of the world and according to the prince of the ayre that ruleth in the children of disobedience saith Paul wee all had our conversation in time past in the lusts of our flesh fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the minde and were by nature children of wrath even as others Ephe. 3 2 3. but were they
