A33370 A paradisical dialogue betwixt faith and reason disputing the high mysterious secrets of eternity, the like never extant in our revelation. As touching God in eternity, how he became time in flesh, and how he dyed in the grave, and ascended to his glory again. Also what the angels are in form and nature, and how the angel became a devil, and that devil man; and that this world was prepared for the devil, so this the devils kingdom; and what the soul is, with the place of its glory and torment. With a brief narration what a commission is, and how many commissions there are; what the difference of their worships, and how that the law was given to the devil; with a brief discourse on the catechism, the Lords Prayer, and the creeds; as also, a divine prospect to the elect of the Lord. Written by Law. Claxton, the onely true bishop and faithful messenger of Christ Jesus, creator of heaven and earth. Claxton, Laurence, 1615-1667. 1660 (1660) Wing C4581; ESTC R215220 88,691 122

have_v both_o reason_n and_o faith_n in_o they_o so_o of_o necessity_n it_o must_v follow_v that_o all_o that_o be_v beget_v or_o generate_v by_o they_o must_v needs_o partake_v of_o both_o nature_n so_o that_o i_o affirm_v that_o all_o the_o righteous_a as_o the_o wicked_a have_v the_o devil_n nature_n in_o they_o and_o yet_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o woman_n shall_v escape_v damnation_n reason_n what_o then_o do_v thou_o say_v that_o the_o devil_n have_v faith_n in_o they_o and_o yet_o shall_v be_v damn_v and_o the_o true_a believer_n have_v reason_n in_o they_o and_o yet_o shall_v be_v
