A96163 Astrologie theologized: wherein is set forth, vvhat astrologie, and the light of nature is. What influence the starres naturally have on man, and how the same may be diverted and avoided. As also, that the outward man, how eminent soever in all naturall and politicall sciences, is to bee denied, and die in us. And, that the inward man by the light of grace, through profession and practice of a holy life, is to be acknowledged and live in us: which is the onely means to keep the true Sabbath in inward holinesse, and free from outward pollution. / By Valentine Weigelius. Weigel, Valentin, 1533-1588. 1649 (1649) Wing W1255; Thomason E562_14; ESTC R204068 39,144 50

be_v whthin_a and_o his_o habitation_n without_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v more_o near_o to_o i_o then_o i_o be_o to_o myself_o and_o so_o it_o most_o evident_o

the_o pharise_n when_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n shall_v come_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n shall_v not_o come_v with_o observation_n neither_o shall_v they_o say_v lo_o here_o or_o lo_o there_o for_o behold_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v within_o you_o and_o the_o apostle_n paul_n 14._o rom._n the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v not_o meat_n and_o drink_n but_o righteousness_n and_o peace_n and_o joy_n in_o the_o holy_a spirit_n for_o by_o these_o he_o which_o do_v service_n to_o christ_n be_v accept_v of_o god_n and_o approve_a by_o man_n the_o soul_n be_v and_o dwell_v in_o the_o heart_n and_o the_o heart_n be_v in_o my_o body_n therefore_o the_o soul_n be_v more_o near_o to_o i_o then_o the_o body_n my_o body_n be_v clothe_v with_o garment_n hence_o the_o body_n be_v near_a to_o i_o then_o garment_n and_o the_o soul_n near_o to_o i_o then_o the_o body_n and_o the_o spirit_n near_o than_o the_o soul_n and_o therefore_o more_o noble_a more_o worthy_a and_o of_o more_o moment_n and_o because_o it_o be_v true_a that_o every_o internal_a be_v more_o noble_a and_o more_o worthy_a than_o his_o external_a in_o which_o it_o be_v and_o dwell_v that_o even_o all_o of_o we_o do_v
