THE ANTINOMIANS CHRIST CONFOVNDED AND THE LORDS CHRIST EXALTED In which is contained a briefe confutation of Dr. CRISPE and Mr LANCASTER Also a Combat with the Antinomians Christ in his Den his arraignment and the fainting Soule built upon the true rocke against which the gates of hell shall not prevaile Mat. 6.18 Imprimatur James Cranford If any man will doe his will he shall know the Doctrine whether it be of God or whether I speake of my selfe John 7.17 Because they received not the love of the truth that they might be saved for this cause God shall send them strong delusions that they should beleeve lies that they all may be damned who beleeve not the Truth but take pleasure in unrighteousnesse 2 Thes 2.10 11 12. Many shall come in my name saying I am Christ and shall deceive many then if any shall say unto you loe here is Christ or there beleeve it not for there shall arise false Christs and false Prophets and shall shew great signes and wonders insomuch that if it were possible they shall deceive the very elect wherefore if they say unto you behold he is in the desert goe not forth behold he is in the secret chambers beleeve it not Mat. 24.5.23 24 26. London printed for Thomas Bankes and are to be sold at his shop in Black-fryers on the top of Bridewell-staires 1644. To the READER Christian Reader IN my first Book against the Antinomians I gave thee a short view of their Errours in five generall heads with a briefe and plaine answer to them and having laid open to the world their uglinesse in their owne native colours they began to be ashamed to owne them and like common Whores who seek to escape away and to leave their bastards upon the parish so these men when shame followed their errours they sought to escape away from them by denying of them but witnesses came in so fast both from their Sermons and from their books and from conference with them that they could not so rid their bands of them yet being unable to maintaine them all away they fled to Gods decrees for a protection and for maintainance of the first of those which is this That a man is justified actually in the sight of God before and without faith and calling this being immediately begottten by them their care was more for it then for the rest which they did but rake out of Eatons dunghill and their labour there was but to raise up children to their eldest brother but as for this which was of their owne begetting was very deare unto them and they say that they will be torne in pieces with wild horses before that they will leave it hereupon they ride post to Gods decrees to fetch from thence some maintainance for it but a faithfull messenger was sent after them to try their power in that last place of refuge and in his pursuit of them he found their Christ exalted above all by Crispe and Lancaster but he being a burden too heavy for them downe fell he and fled to his den but the faithfull messenger being sent and having commission from the Lords Christ followed him to his den and there he was set upon by seaven of his chiefest souldiers and a true relation of the combat and of his victory over them and how he sore wounded them with uncurable wounds and brought away their Christ to his tryall and after a true discovery of him comparing him to the Lords Christ he was sound not worthy to be trusted in for salvation but rather to be condemned for high treason and blasphemy and the Lords Christ alone exalted alove all for ever therefore try all things and hold fast that which is good 1 Thes 5.21 and be no more carried about with divers and strange doctrines for it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace Heb. 13.9 as ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord so walke ye in him rooted and built up in him and established in the faith as ye have been taught abounding therein with thanksgiving and beware least any man spoyle you through Philosophy and vaine deceit Col. 2.6 7 8. and that thou mayest be built upon the true rocke Jesus Christ and stand like Mount Zion unmovable Psal 125.1 Mat. 16.18.7.24 1 Cor. 3.12 I have laid here before thee the grounds of true Christian Religion by way of Question and answer read it with an honest and sincere endeavour to be setled in the truth and I doubt not but thou shalt see that the spirit of God will lead thee into all truth John 16.13 and the Comforter which is the holy Ghost whomthe Father will send in the name of Christ he will teach you all things and bring all things to your remembrance John 14.26 therefore I pray thee read it and if thoureceive any benefit give God the praise and me remember in thy prayers and so I commend thee to God whom I know is able to keep that which I have committed unto him 2 Tim. 1.12 and so I rest unlesse I be againe provoked by these troublers of Israel but the meane time I remaine Thine in all Christian duties THOMAS BAKEWELL THE ANTINOMIANS CHRIST Confounded and the LORDS CHRIST EXALTED I Borrowed those fourteen Sermons of Doctor Crisps in which the Antinomians say Christ alone is exalted but I found so many errou●s in it that it would have been endlesse to have answered them all distinctly one after another and having the Booke but two dayes in my hand therfore I thought fit to gather the substance of them to these c●r●aine heads first those errours about redemption secondly those about possession thirdly those about justification fourthly those about the new Covenont fi●●ly those about a holy conversation with a briefe and plain answer to them to shew how Christ alone by them is exalted First their errours about redemption the Doctor saith we may collect the universality of redemption of all and every particular man in the world pag. 296. this he illustrates by this comparison saying That the Lord pardons sinners as when a King by proclamation sends forth a generall pardon for all Theeves without exception so that if a man be but a Theefe it is enough the pardon is sent him as a deed of gift universally exhibited pag. 162 163. but saith the Lord to Jerusalem how shall I pardon thee for this thy children have forsaken me and sworn by them that are no gods they commit adultery and assemble themselvesn ●●roops to the harlots houses Jer. 5.7 obey his voice provoke him not for he will not pardon your transgressions for my name is in him Exod. 23.21 some sinners shall never be purged from their filthinesse Ez●k 24.13 he that blasphemes against the holy Ghost shall never be forgiven Mat. 12.31 then is his pardon for all sinners he cals none but those that are heavy laden with their sins Mat. 11.28 and excludes those that cry Lord Lord and
