VVith a description of the true marks and characters thereof; which being manifested and declared, is the true and proper ground of visible communion, in which the sons or children of God are to receive and own one another as brethren, although they differ (for want of light) in some particular ordinances. Whereunto is annexed a briefe description of Antichrist, not only without men, but within them also. / By R.B. an unworthy servant of Iesus Christ, who desireth and prayeth for the unity of all saints.

col._n 3.10_o second_o it_o be_v call_v the_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n for_o this_o reason_n because_o that_o god_n by_o his_o spirit_n do_v beget_v and_o create_v and_o bring_v forth_o this_o new_a creature_n in_o a_o soul_n and_o this_o work_n of_o god_n spirit_n be_v put_v in_o opposition_n to_o natural_a birth_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o text_n not_o of_o female_a of_o

the_o flesh_n nor_o of_o the_o will_n of_o man_n but_o of_o god_n have_v show_v what_o the_o new_a birth_n be_v and_o what_o it_o be_v to_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n i_o shall_v in_o the_o next_o place_n give_v a_o brief_a description_n of_o the_o new_a creature_n which_o be_v beget_v and_o bear_v of_o god_n in_o this_o new_a birth_n and_o i_o shall_v define_v it_o thus_o that_o it_o be_v a_o divine_a

whatsoever_o grace_n it_o be_v why_o it_o may_v be_v see_v that_o it_o do_v evident_o appear_v from_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o it_o be_v the_o proceed_v and_o product_v of_o the_o

true_a faith_n in_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n christ_n creature_n true_a faith_n be_v a_o certain_a mark_n of_o the_o new_a creature_n be_v a_o infallible_a character_n both_o of_o the_o new_a birth_n

the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o be_v beget_v and_o bear_v in_o a_o soul_n in_o this_o new_a birth_n but_o i_o only_a name_n faith_n or_o believe_a because_o it_o be_v only_o mention_v in_o

for_o the_o proof_n of_o the_o thing_n in_o hand_n namely_o that_o true_a faith_n be_v a_o character_n of_o sonship_n and_o of_o the_o new_a birth_n be_v plain_o hold_v forth_o in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o text_n as_o may_v clear_o appear_v by_o propose_v of_o this_o query_n and_o that_o be_v this_o querie_n by_o what_o mark_n or_o character_n may_v we_o come_v to_o know_v a_o true_a son_n of_o god_n or_o one_o that_o be_v bear_v in_o the_o new_a birth_n why_o the_o text_n give_v this_o answer_n that_o those_o that_o be_v make_v the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v they_o that_o believe_v in_o his_o name_n so_o that_o wheresoever_o we_o find_v true_a faith_n in_o any_o man_n or_o woman_n we_o may_v be_v confident_a that_o man_n or_o woman_n be_v a_o child_n of_o god_n second_o the_o text_n tell_v we_o that_o true_a faith_n and_o believe_a be_v a_o certain_a character_n of_o the_o new_a birth_n as_o appear_v in_o these_o word_n they_o that_o believe_v in_o his_o name_n be_v those_o which_o be_v

moreover_o this_o truth_n may_v be_v prove_v by_o this_o argument_n namely_o that_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o this_o new_a birth_n be_v the_o root_n and_o tree_n from_o whence_o faith_n spring_v and_o upon_o which_o it_o grow_v as_o have_v be_v already_o prove_v and_o christ_n tell_v we_o in_o luk._n 6.44_o that_o every_o tree_n be_v know_v by_o his_o fruit_n and_o that_o for_o this_o reason_n that_o a_o good_a tree_n can_v bring_v forth_o corrupt_a fruit_n neither_o can_v a_o corrupt_a tree_n bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n so_o in_o like_a manner_n the_o corrupt_a natural_a

the_o flesh_n be_v flesh_n and_o that_o which_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o spirit_n be_v spirit_n so_o that_o wheresoever_o we_o find_v faith_n which_o be_v a_o spiritual_a grace_n it_o be_v a_o certain_a character_n that_o there_o be_v the_o spiritual_a new_a birth_n from_o whence_o it_o spring_v now_o have_v prove_v that_o true_a faith_n and_o belief_n on_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v a_o true_a mark_n and_o character_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o of_o the_o new_a birth_n i_o may_v take_v occasion_n to_o show_v what_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v by_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o second_o what_o it_o be_v to_o believe_v one_o his_o name_n but_o i_o shall_v not_o enlarge_v upon_o this_o but_o rather_o come_v to_o show_v of_o what_o use_v the_o doctrine_n as_o it_o have_v be_v open_v may_v be_v to_o all_o the_o people_n of_o god_n only_o in_o a_o few_o word_n brief_o to_o give_v you_o my_o understanding_n cocern_v the_o same_o and_o christ_n what_o be_v to_o be_v
