A93315	The worlds wonder, or the Quakers blazing starr: with an astronomical judgment given upon the same, from 2 Cor. 11.13, 14, 15. Proving them to be altogether deluded by Satan, both in their judgments and walkings: together with a probable conjecture of the end of the world, and the estate of things in the interval. / By Edmund Skipp preacher of the Gospel unto the people at Bodenham in Herefordshire.

of_o the_o world_n to_o come_v if_o they_o shall_v fall_v away_o to_o renew_v they_o again_o unto_o repentance_n see_v they_o crucify_v to_o themselves_o the_o son_n of_o god_n afresh_o and_o put_v

truth_n through_o christ_n and_o to_o have_v much_o communion_n with_o god_n and_o large_a experiment_n of_o his_o love_n but_o as_o for_o many_o other_o of_o they_o they_o be_v never_o judge_v by_o i_o or_o the_o rest_n to_o be_v any_o more_o than_o a_o willing_a people_n to_o inquire_v after_o the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o as_o for_o such_o this_o scripture_n do_v not_o touch_v he_o but_o yet_o let_v we_o examine_v this_o scripture_n a_o little_a far_o for_o i_o know_v it_o be_v a_o very_a mysterious_a one_o and_o have_v much_o puzzle_v the_o thought_n of_o many_o good_a man_n and_o in_o my_o apprehension_n there_o be_v two_o wrong_a judgement_n give_v upon_o it_o by_o most_o man_n the_o one_o be_v they_o general_o take_v this_o scripture_n to_o speak_v forth_o nothing_o but_o eternal_a death_n and_o damnation_n to_o all_o such_o who_o shall_v sin_v and_o fail_v as_o the_o apostle_n do_v there_o speak_v whereas_o the_o apostle_n say_v not_o any_o such_o thing_n but_o only_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o renew_v they_o unto_o repentance_n and_o although_o it_o be_v true_a of_o man_n in_o general_a without_o repentance_n there_o can_v be_v no_o salvation_n yet_o paul_n do_v not_o here_o speak_v of_o man_n that_o never_o have_v receive_v christ_n but_o of_o man_n that_o have_v fall_v away_o from_o and_o lose_v what_o they_o have_v receive_v and_o therefore_o i_o hold_v good_a in_o the_o speak_n upon_o this_o scripture_n to_o look_v distinct_o upon_o the_o two_o condition_n of_o inegeneration_n and_o apostasy_n a_o second_o wrong_v judgement_n give_v upon_o this_o scripture_n as_o i_o conceive_v be_v that_o this_o sin_n here_o speak_v be_v the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o i_o do_v not_o so_o apprehend_v and_o i_o think_v it_o will_v appear_v not_o to_o be_v so_o from_o the_o last_o word_n in_o that_o place_n for_o the_o utmost_a the_o apostle_n reckon_v it_o unto_o be_v but_o the_o crucify_a the_o son_n of_o god_n afresh_o that_o be_v the_o crucify_a of_o a_o christ_n without_o or_o as_o he_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o another_o not_o his_o own_o that_o do_v it_o and_o we_o know_v that_o christ_n himself_o say_v all_o manner_n of_o blasphemy_n and_o sin_n against_o the_o son_n of_o man_n shall_v be_v forgive_v matth._n 12.31_o 32._o here_o christ_n himself_o do_v not_o make_v any_o sin_n against_o himself_o that_o be_v as_o he_o be_v not_o live_v and_o dwell_v in_o the_o soul_n to_o make_v a_o man_n without_o all_o condition_n utter_o uncapable_a of_o salvation_n for_o ever_o for_o then_o all_o the_o world_n be_v uncapable_a of_o life_n because_o they_o sin_n against_o that_o christ_n which_o live_v and_o dwell_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o his_o servant_n but_o he_o make_v only_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n that_o be_v as_o i_o apprehend_v spirit_n discovery_n of_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n a_o wilful_a sin_v against_o the_o present_a operation_n and_o power_n of_o christ_n or_o his_o spirit_n against_o a_o live_a christ_n within_o not_o a_o christ_n without_o to_o render_v a_o man_n beyond_o and_o without_o all_o condition_n whatsoever_o utter_o uncapable_a of_o salvation_n and_o this_o be_v the_o sin_n which_o the_o apostle_n john_n say_v be_v unto_o death_n and_o therefore_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v pray_v for_o 1_o john_n 5.16_o so_o that_o i_o can_v find_v that_o the_o apostle_n do_v in_o these_o word_n point_v out_o any_o thing_n but_o such_o a_o desperate_a and_o dangerous_a kind_a of_o apostasy_n as_o that_o he_o who_o shall_v be_v so_o qualify_v as_o there_o he_o speak_v and_o yet_o fall_v away_o can_v possible_o be_v bring_v to_o repentance_n or_o out_o of_o that_o condition_n of_o apostasy_n while_o he_o continue_v this_o be_v and_o under_o this_o kind_n of_o apostasy_n i_o find_v many_o of_o these_o poor_a delude_a creature_n as_o for_o those_o that_o never_o receive_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o power_n and_o truth_n they_o can_v be_v say_v to_o fall_v from_o that_o they_o never_o have_v and_o so_o their_o condition_n be_v not_o the_o same_o but_o for_o the_o rest_n of_o they_o i_o be_o afraid_a they_o will_v never_o be_v bring_v from_o under_o that_o delusion_n while_o they_o live_v in_o their_o earthly_a tabernacle_n for_o i_o see_v the_o presence_n and_o spirit_n of_o christ_n be_v whole_o with_o draw_v from_o they_o and_o satan_n he_o have_v afterward_o steal_v away_o out_o of_o their_o heart_n all_o those_o bless_a operation_n of_o his_o presence_n as_o faith_n knowledge_n sobriety_n and_o
