A29932	Dwelling with God, the interest and duty of believers in opposition to the complemental, heartless, and reserved religion of the hypocrite / opened in eight sermons by John Bryan ...	Bryan, John, d. 1676.; Baxter, Richard, 1615-1691.	1670 (1670)	Wing B5243; ESTC R31994	149,472	465

of_o seek_v love_n and_o the_o other_o of_o fullenjoying-love_n and_o both_o be_v the_o dwelling_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o god_n in_o several_a manner_n and_o degree_n do_v not_o wonder_v therefore_o if_o the_o reverend_a author_n of_o this_o treatise_n my_o deservedly-much_a value_a and_o honour_a friend_n and_o long_o a_o laborious_a servant_n of_o christ_n have_v choose_v this_o subject_a for_o his_o own_o delight_n and_o for_o his_o reader_n benefit_n for_o however_o perhaps_o the_o burn_a of_o the_o city_n and_o the_o removal_n of_o many_o minister_n from_o their_o settle_a habitation_n may_v be_v some_o occasion_n of_o his_o choice_n yet_o the_o great_a reason_n no_o doubt_n be_v the_o greatness_n and_o necessity_n of_o this_o truth_n as_o suit_v to_o the_o great_a edification_n of_o man_n soul_n i_o foresee_v that_o there_o be_v some_o that_o will_v say_v that_o this_o run_v of_o allegory_n so_o far_o do_v carry_v away_o the_o mind_n from_o the_o just_a conception_n of_o the_o thing_n and_o hinder_v and_o delude_v the_o understanding_n by_o draw_v it_o into_o the_o by-path_n of_o improper_a notion_n and_o be_v the_o way_n of_o injudicious_a superficial_a teacher_n and_o i_o confess_v it_o be_v so_o in_o several_a case_n as_o 1._o when_o metaphor_n be_v choose_v needless_o instead_o of_o more_o plain_a significant_a term_n 2._o and_o when_o they_o be_v choose_v unapt_o and_o be_v not_o fit_v to_o the_o matter_n signify_v 3._o when_o they_o be_v insist_v on_o too_o far_o to_o the_o exclusion_n of_o the_o proper_a notion_n and_o tend_v indeed_o to_o seduce_v and_o carry_v away_o the_o mind_n 4._o when_o they_o be_v run_v up_o so_o high_a as_o to_o infer_v any_o false_a conclusion_n or_o to_o introduce_v any_o groundless_a confectary_n or_o application_n but_o if_o you_o consider_v of_o the_o allegory_n insist_v on_o in_o this_o treatise_n you_o will_v have_v better_a thought_n and_o censure_n of_o it_o upon_o these_o reason_n follow_v 1._o it_o be_v not_o about_o a_o create_a subject_n where_o we_o have_v store_n of_o proper_a notion_n but_o about_o the_o creator_n and_o our_o communion_n with_o he_o where_o we_o must_v have_v improper_a thought_n and_o borrow_a notion_n or_o none_o at_o all_o it_o be_v a_o controversy_n between_o the_o thomist_n and_o the_o scotist_n whether_o one_o syllable_n ens_fw-la be_v speak_v univocal_o of_o god_n and_o of_o the_o creature_n but_o that_o no_o other_o word_n be_v speak_v univocal_o of_o they_o they_o be_v agree_v and_o the_o scotist_n do_v not_o without_o reason_n maintain_v that_o analogical_a attribution_n be_v not_o a_o three_o member_n betwixt_o univocal_a and_o equivocal_a but_o be_v true_o equivocal_a as_o metaphor_n be_v talk_v not_o then_o against_o all_o allegorical_a expression_n about_o god_n till_o you_o will_v forbid_v mortal_n to_o talk_v of_o god_n at_o all_o 2._o note_v that_o it_o be_v not_o so_o much_o the_o matter_n of_o our_o communion_n with_o god_n as_o the_o manner_n of_o it_o which_o the_o allegory_n be_v use_v to_o express_v for_o the_o matter_n on_o our_o part_n i_o here_o tell_v you_o once_o for_o all_o that_o it_o be_v not_o any_o friar_n like_v fanatical_a notion_n of_o deification_n by_o a_o indwel_n in_o god_n nor_o andr._n os●anders_n conceit_n of_o essential_a righteousness_n nor_o the_o platonist_n fancy_n of_o the_o union_n of_o the_o intellect_n with_o the_o thing_n understand_v which_o the_o reverend_a author_n do_v assert_v but_o it_o be_v only_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o three_o essential_a faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n with_o god_n the_o vital_a and_o executive_a power_n the_o intellect_n and_o will_v partly_o receptive_o and_o partly_o operative_o which_o be_v mean_v and_o the_o allegory_n of_o dwelling_n signify_v the_o permanency_n fixedness_n constancy_n familiarness_n etc._n etc._n of_o these_o 3._o and_o consider_v how_o apt_a and_o significant_a it_o be_v how_o fit_o it_o express_v the_o habit_n of_o grace_n the_o soul_n fidelity_n the_o course_n of_o duty_n the_o content_n and_o comfort_n of_o a_o believer_n in_o his_o god_n etc._n etc._n as_o be_v here_o full_o open_v to_o you_o and_o how_o fit_o it_o difference_v a_o christian_a indeed_o who_o dwell_v habitual_o and_o devote_o in_o god_n from_o all_o sort_n of_o hypocrite_n who_o do_v but_o compliment_v with_o he_o as_o a_o stranger_n or_o step_v aside_o out_o of_o their_o ordinary_a way_n to_o speak_v now_o and_o then_o with_o he_o either_o in_o formality_n or_o in_o their_o extremity_n and_o cast_v a_o eye_n towards_o he_o sometime_o on_o the_o by_o and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o barren_a notion_n but_o most_o practical_a direct_v the_o thought_n of_o a_o christian_a to_o a_o constant_a spiritual_a holy_a life_n yea_o that_o it_o be_v a_o very_a consolatory_a notion_n speak_v the_o beginning_n of_o heaven_n on_o earth_n and_o suit_v both_o to_o grace_n and_o glory_n and_o apt_a to_o lead_v up_o our_o desire_n to_o the_o everlasting_a mansion_n which_o we_o have_v scarce_o a_o more_o familiar_a conception_n of_o than_o by_o dwelling_n with_o god_n and_o who_o will_v not_o be_v at_o home_o that_o have_v such_o a_o home_n prepare_v for_o he_o when_o once_o he_o be_v prepare_v for_o it_o 4._o and_o last_o consider_v that_o it_o be_v a_o scripture_n metaphor_n yea_o frequent_o there_o use_v and_o what_o word_n of_o scripture_n can_v seem_v more_o important_a to_o we_o than_o 1_o john_n 4._o 16_o god_n be_v love_n and_o he_o that_o dwell_v in_o love_n dwell_v in_o god_n and_o god_n in_o he_o and_o v._o 15._o

another_o sort_n that_o i_o foresee_v will_v be_v offend_v because_o the_o author_n have_v say_v so_o much_o against_o separation_n from_o the_o public_a assembly_n and_o worship_n as_o now_o manage_v
