A47167	A refutation of three opposers of truth by plain evidence of the holy Scripture, viz. I. Of Pardon Tillinghast, who pleadeth for water-baptism, its being a Gospel-precept, and opposeth Christ within, as a false Christ. To which is added, something concerning the Supper, &c. II. Of B. Keech, in his book called, A tutor for children, where he disputeth against the sufficiency of the light within, in order of salvation; and calleth Christ in the heart, a false Christ in the secret chamber. II. Of Cotton Mather, who in his appendix to his book, called, Memorable providences, relating to witchcrafts, &c. doth so weakly defend his father Increase Mather from being justly chargeable with abusing the honest people called Quakers, that he doth the more lay open his fathers nakedness; and beside the abuses and injuries that his father had cast upon that people, C. Mather, the son, addeth new abuses of his own. And a few words of a letter to John Cotton, called a minister, at Plymouth in New England. By George Keith.

it_o be_v real_o a_o degree_n of_o blasphemy_n to_o say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o light_n or_o principle_n or_o be_v in_o man_n that_o can_v do_v these_o thing_n for_o god_n and_o christ_n can_v do_v all_o thing_n and_o both_o god_n and_o christ_n be_v in_o all_o man_n not_o only_o as_o to_o that_o general_a presence_n in_o all_o the_o creature_n but_o in_o a_o special_a way_n of_o revelation_n as_o be_v the_o offspring_n of_o god_n as_o paul_n declare_v to_o the_o athenian_n but_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n what_o god_n and_o christ_n can_v do_v and_o far_o another_o thing_n what_o they_o common_o and_o universal_o do_v now_o it_o be_v ready_o grant_v that_o god_n and_o christ_n do_v not_o common_o reveal_v unto_o man_n the_o knowledge_n and_o faith_n of_o christ_n crucify_v etc._n etc._n without_o the_o scripture_n testimony_n or_o some_o outward_a teach_v but_o this_o do_v not_o prove_v that_o the_o light_n in_o man_n have_v no_o preparatory_a service_n use_n or_o tendency_n in_o order_n to_o receive_v the_o knowledge_n &_o faith_n of_o christ_n crucify_v as_o we_o see_v it_o have_v according_a to_o scripture_n as_o be_v clear_a in_o the_o â—ase_n of_o cornelius_n and_o in_o the_o parable_n of_o the_o good_a ground_n that_o signify_v the_o good_a and_o honest_a heart_n even_o before_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o pure_a and_o perfect_a evangelical_a dispensation_n be_v

insufficient_a to_o give_v eternal_a life_n and_o salvation_n for_o the_o ordinary_a and_o usual_a way_n of_o god_n to_o beget_v in_o all_o true_a believer_n the_o true_a knowledge_n and_o faith_n of_o christ_n crucify_v be_v by_o some_o outward_a mean_n of_o preach_v read_v or_o hear_v the_o scripture_n read_v and_o not_o without_o they_o the_o inward_a light_n and_o grace_n of_o god_n mighty_o cooperate_a and_o work_v together_o with_o the_o outward_a mean_n of_o the_o scripture_n preach_v read_v or_o hear_v and_o whereas_o he_o direct_v his_o book_n general_o to_o these_o call_a christian_n many_o of_o who_o be_v of_o his_o own_o profession_n if_o his_o doctrine_n be_v to_o be_v receive_v none_o of_o his_o own_o brethren_n nor_o any_o christian_n whatsoever_o have_v any_o save_a light_n or_o grace_n in_o they_o for_o he_o make_v no_o distinction_n betwixt_o christian_n and_o heathen_n but_o say_v general_o to_o all_o that_o they_o have_v no_o save_a light_n in_o they_o but_o for_o the_o better_a understanding_n of_o the_o whole_a matter_n let_v it_o be_v consider_v that_o the_o light_n in_o man_n have_v a_o two_o fold_v sense_n and_o signification_n 1_o sy_n it_o may_v and_o do_v signify_v god_n who_o be_v light_n and_o christ_n who_o also_o be_v light_n as_o the_o holy_a scripture_n declare_v 2_o dly_a it_o may_v and_o do_v signify_v some_o divine_a inward_a illumination_n and_o revelation_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n in_o man_n which_o have_v also_o a_o quicken_a and_o cleanse_v operation_n in_o it_o now_o admit_v that_o the_o divine_a illumination_n and_o revelation_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n do_v not_o at_o first_o reveal_v or_o discover_v these_o peculiar_a mystery_n of_o the_o pure_a gospel_n dispensation_n as_o christ_n crucify_v and_o faith_n in_o he_o yet_o it_o do_v suffice_v that_o i_o have_v prove_v that_o it_o can_v begin_v and_o do_v real_o begin_v a_o good_a work_n of_o god_n in_o they_o that_o be_v diligent_a to_o obey_v it_o and_o where_o this_o good_a work_n of_o god_n be_v begin_v in_o any_o they_o can_v perish_v although_o they_o die_v in_o that_o state_n for_o as_o no_o unrighteous_a soul_n can_v while_o such_o go_v into_o heaven_n so_o none_o that_o be_v in_o any_o the_o least_o degree_n righteous_a by_o the_o work_n of_o god_n in_o their_o heart_n while_o such_o can_v go_v to_o hell_n or_o final_o perish_v but_o to_o determine_v at_o what_o precise_a time_n and_o how_o this_o work_n of_o god_n begin_v in_o honest_a gentile_n be_v perfect_v in_o they_o and_o at_o what_o precise_a time_n the_o knowledge_n

our_o adversary_n yea_o i_o suppose_v general_o the_o baptist_n themselves_o for_o first_o they_o acknowledge_v that_o many_o infant_n die_v in_o infancy_n belong_v to_o god_n election_n and_o be_v

please_v as_o the_o presbyterian_a confession_n of_o faith_n own_v by_o baptist_n do_v express_o declare_v now_o it_o be_v plain_a the_o difficulty_n be_v equal_a to_o they_o with_o we_o and_o be_v a_o great_a secret_a know_v perhaps_o to_o few_o of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n the_o precise_a time_n way_n manner_n and_o mean_n of_o god_n save_v they_o with_o eternal_a salvation_n who_o have_v not_o have_v christ_n outward_o preach_v unto_o they_o neither_o by_o man_n nor_o scripture_n and_o let_v it_o suffice_v to_o clear_v we_o that_o we_o say_v the_o knowledge_n and_o faith_n of_o christ_n crucify_v even_o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n be_v universal_o necessary_a to_o the_o full_a and_o final_a perfect_v the_o work_n of_o man_n eternal_a salvation_n and_o happiness_n and_o be_v ordinary_o
