A81727 Gospel-Glory proclaimed before the sonnes of men, in the visible and invisible worship of God. Wherein the mystery of God in Christ, and his royall, spirituall government over the soules and bodies of his saints, is clearly discovered, plainly asserted, and faithfully vindicated, against the deceiver and his servants, who endeavour the cessation thereof, upon what pretence soever. / By Edward Drapes, an unworthy servant in the gospell of Christ. Drapes, Edward. 1648 (1648) Wing D2139; Thomason E472_27; ESTC R205811 164,938 187

what_o i_o have_v say_v of_o the_o incapacity_n of_o the_o disciple_n give_v the_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v as_o true_a here_o they_o can_v not_o neither_o do_v they_o give_v this_o
