A86947 The mystery of Christ in us, with the mystery of the Father, Word, and holy Ghost or Spirit, opened also, the parable of the rich man's flocks and herds, and the poor man's ewe-lamb, explicated. Likewise, the way that Christ takes to undo a man, and take away his life. Together with a discovery of the neerness of Christs coming, and of those glorious things which are to be fulfilled in these later days. Set forth and published by Ed. Hide jun. Hyde, Edward, 1607-1659. 1651 (1651) Wing H3866; Thomason E1372_4; ESTC R209351 80,214 204

believe_v in_o jesus_n his_o righteousness_n consist_v in_o this_o in_o that_o he_o can_v remit_v sin_n and_o yet_o be_v faithful_a in_o that_o he_o can_v justify_v the_o ungodly_a and_o yet_o be_v

from_o above_o we_o be_v ready_a to_o speak_v it_o in_o our_o heart_n though_o not_o in_o our_o mouth_n who_o shall_v ascend_v into_o heaven_n we_o want_v christ_n he_o be_v not_o in_o our_o heart_n

but_o in_o the_o deep_a and_o we_o be_v very_o inquisitive_a who_o shall_v fetch_v he_o from_o the_o dead_a we_o think_v that_o either_o he_o be_v above_o we_o or_o beneath_o we_o among_o the_o dead_a in_o the_o grave_n in_o hell_n sometime_o we_o think_v he_o be_v rise_v and_o ascend_v above_o and_o sometime_o we_o think_v that_o he_o be_v not_o thus_o much_o for_o that_o which_o the_o

but_o why_o be_v he_o call_v the_o word_n of_o truth_n because_o he_o beget_v truth_n in_o the_o soul_n this_o word_n be_v nigh_o thou_o how_o nigh_o i_o very_o nigh_o thou_o deut._n 30._o 14._o for_o

he_o to_o be_v in_o our_o heart_n the_o next_o thing_n to_o be_v inquire_v into_o be_v to_o who_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n speak_v that_o be_v to_o those_o who_o by_o
