A37498	The tryal of spirits both in teachers & hearers wherein is held forth the clear discovery and certain downfal of the carnal and antichristian clergie of these nations / testified from the Word of God to the university-congregation in Cambridge by William Dell ; whereunto is added A plain and necessary confutation of divers gross errors delivered by Mr. Sydrach Simpson in a sermon preached to the same congregation at the commencement, Anno 1653 ; wherein (among other things) is declared, that the vniversities (according to their present statutes and practices) are not (as he affirmed) answerable to the schools of the prophets in the time of the law, but rather to the idolatrous high places ...

that_o believe_v and_o acknowledge_v that_o the_o son_n of_o the_o live_a god_n be_v come_v not_o only_o into_o that_o humanity_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o virgin_n but_o also_o that_o he_o be_v come_v into_o we_o and_o dwell_v in_o we_o according_a to_o these_o scripture_n that_o christ_n may_v dwell_v in_o your_o heart_n by_o faith_n and_o christ_n in_o you_o the_o hope_n of_o glory_n and_o know_v you_o not_o that_o christ_n be_v in_o you_o except_o you_o be_v reprobate_n etc._n etc._n wherefore_o the_o true_a prophet_n do_v not_o only_o acknowledge_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v come_v into_o his_o own_o flesh_n but_o also_o into_o they_o which_o by_o this_o mean_n be_v make_v his_o and_o that_o christ_n be_v in_o they_o of_o a_o truth_n and_o dwell_v in_o they_o for_o antichrist_n himself_o and_o his_o minister_n do_v all_o acknowledge_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v come_v into_o that_o flesh_n which_o he_o do_v assume_v of_o the_o virgin_n but_o they_o will_v not_o confess_v that_o this_o be_v true_a in_o he_o and_o in_o we_o they_o will_v acknowledge_v the_o mystery_n of_o god_n manifest_v in_o the_o flesh_n as_o to_o christ_n the_o head_n but_o they_o will_v deny_v it_o as_o to_o the_o church_n his_o body_n and_o so_o whilst_o they_o separate_v the_o head_n from_o the_o body_n and_o the_o body_n from_o the_o head_n in_o this_o mystery_n they_o do_v solvere_fw-la jesum_fw-la they_o dissolve_v jesus_n i_o say_v some_o hold_n that_o the_o eternal_a word_n or_o divine_a nature_n come_v indeed_o into_o that_o flesh_n which_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o bless_a virgin_n but_o they_o will_v by_o no_o mean_n allow_v it_o to_o come_v into_o we_o through_o our_o union_n with_o he_o by_o faith_n only_o they_o say_v some_o create_a habit_n or_o gift_n of_o grace_n come_v into_o we_o or_o in_o our_o flesh_n but_o not_o christ_n himself_o or_o the_o divine_a nature_n or_o son_n of_o the_o live_a god_n and_o so_o these_o man_n set_v up_o these_o create_a gift_n and_o grace_n in_o the_o member_n instead_o of_o christ_n himself_o the_o head_n and_o yet_o these_o teacher_n make_v a_o glorious_a show_n in_o the_o flesh_n and_o this_o be_v antichrist_n to_o wit_n when_o man_n think_v that_o these_o create_a habit_n of_o grace_n which_o they_o fancy_v will_v renew_v comfort_n sanctify_v and_o save_v they_o and_o so_o do_v make_v to_o themselves_o of_o they_o a_o glorious_a but_o yet_o a_o false_a christ._n wherefore_o let_v we_o know_v that_o he_o that_o deny_v jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o member_n be_v though_o not_o so_o great_a yet_o as_o true_a antichrist_n as_o he_o that_o deny_v jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o head_n and_o he_o that_o deny_v christ_n dwell_v in_o our_o heart_n by_o faith_n to_o be_v and_o to_o be_v alone_a wisdom_n righteousness_n sanctification_n and_o redemption_n to_o we_o as_o he_o that_o deny_v he_o to_o be_v the_o power_n wisdom_n and_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o himself_o the_o sum_n of_o this_o matter_n be_v this_o that_o the_o true_a spirit_n or_o prophet_n do_v acknowledge_v not_o only_o that_o christ_n the_o son_n of_o the_o live_a god_n be_v come_v into_o that_o son_n of_o man_n which_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o bless_a virgin_n but_o also_o that_o christ_n be_v come_v into_o they_o and_o dwell_v in_o they_o as_o in_o his_o own_o true_a and_o proper_a member_n and_o so_o he_o that_o have_v jesus_n christ_n dwell_v in_o his_o heart_n be_v a_o true_a prophet_n and_o he_o that_o have_v not_o christ_n dwell_v in_o his_o heart_n be_v a_o false_a prophet_n though_o his_o knowledge_n and_o religion_n be_v never_o so_o high_a and_o glorious_a and_o holy_a also_o in_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o world_n and_o this_o be_v the_o chief_a sign_n and_o mark_v whereby_o we_o may_v know_v the_o true_a prophet_n and_o true_a christian_n from_o the_o false_a prophet_n and_o false_a christian_n object_n now_o if_o any_o shall_v say_v but_o how_o shall_v we_o know_v whether_o objection_n a_o man_n have_v christ_n dwell_v in_o his_o heart_n or_o no_o and_o so_o consequent_o whether_o he_o be_v a_o true_a or_o false_a prophet_n answ._n i_o answer_v you_o shall_v

who_o god_n have_v send_v speak_v the_o word_n of_o god_n not_o the_o word_n of_o man_n or_o angle_n but_o of_o god_n and_o this_o be_v true_a both_o in_o christ_n and_o in_o his_o seed_n but_o now_o the_o false_a prophet_n speak_v not_o the_o word_n of_o god_n for_o word_n they_o have_v it_o not_o in_o their_o heart_n but_o what_o word_n they_o have_v in_o their_o heart_n that_o they_o speak_v and_o so_o they_o speak_v the_o word_n of_o their_o own_o reason_n wisdom_n and_o righteousness_n or_o of_o other_o man_n but_o beyond_o humane_a thing_n they_o do_v not_o go_v whether_o they_o pretend_v to_o high_a notion_n on_o the_o one_o hand_n or_o to_o sound_a orthodox_n doctrine_n on_o the_o other_o hand_n now_o of_o this_o true_a christian_n be_v to_o take_v special_a notice_n because_o as_o the_o true_a word_n of_o god_n be_v the_o great_a commodity_n to_o the_o church_n that_o can_v be_v and_o bring_v the_o presence_n of_o christ_n and_o all_o the_o thing_n of_o christ_n

to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n and_o so_o he_o speak_v the_o word_n of_o god_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n command_v his_o disciple_n to_o stay_v at_o jerusalem_n till_o they_o have_v receive_v the_o spirit_n and_o then_o to_o go_v forth_o and_o preach_v because_o he_o know_v they_o can_v not_o preach_v god_n word_n aright_o without_o god_n
