A23660 The danger of enthusiasm discovered in an epistle to the Quakers : in which 'tis endeavoured, to convince them of being guilty of changing God's method of bringing men to salvation / by one who is no more an enemy to their opinions, than their opinions are enemies to them themselves. Allen, William, d. 1686. 1674 (1674) Wing A1058; ESTC R13150 64,102 137

have_v already_o see_v their_o error_n and_o be_v come_v off_o from_o you_o and_o to_o other_o that_o shall_v follow_v they_o therein_o §_o 23._o i_o know_v it_o be_v a_o very_a hard_a thing_n for_o such_o to_o get_v quite_o rid_v of_o all_o their_o confuse_a and_o enthusiastical_a thought_n notion_n and_o phrase_n but_o that_o some_o relic_n of_o their_o old_a disease_n will_v still_o hang_v on_o they_o and_o cleave_v to_o they_o and_o so_o encumber_v they_o that_o they_o can_v very_o hardly_o come_v quick_o to_o any_o clear_a and_o distinct_a apprehension_n of_o evangelical_n verity_n to_o such_o i_o will_v give_v this_o short_a advice_n that_o lay_v aside_o all_o thought_n and_o conceit_n of_o high_a attainment_n in_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n they_o will_v repent_v and_o do_v their_o first_o work_n and_o begin_v as_o it_o be_v again_o at_o the_o first_o principle_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n and_o so_o lay_v their_o foundation_n a_o new_a in_o the_o beginning_n

they_o be_v express_v in_o scripture_n not_o affect_v nor_o entertain_v mystical_a notion_n of_o they_o more_o particular_o that_o they_o will_v furnish_v their_o mind_n with_o right_a apprehension_n of_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n as_o son_n of_o god_n and_o son_n of_o the_o virgin_n mary_n and_o of_o the_o nature_n of_o his_o mediatory_a office_n that_o as_o priest_n he_o offer_v himself_o in_o sacrifice_n to_o expiate_v sin_n by_o his_o death_n and_o in_o virtue_n thereof_o make_v continual_a intercession_n for_o we_o that_o as_o prophet_n he_o reveal_v and_o declare_v the_o new_a covenant_n of_o salvation_n that_o as_o king_n he_o have_v give_v law_n to_o the_o world_n and_o that_o he_o do_v rule_n and_o govern_v his_o church_n through_o his_o spirit_n by_o those_o law_n and_o that_o at_o last_o he_o will_v try_v and_o judge_v all_o man_n by_o they_o that_o have_v live_v under_o they_o and_o that_o he_o will_v reward_v all_o with_o eternal_a happiness_n or_o endless_a torment_n according_a as_o they_o have_v be_v obedient_a or_o disobedient_a to_o they_o that_o they_o be_v careful_a also_o that_o their_o notion_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n be_v according_a to_o the_o plain_a doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o the_o scripture_n particular_o that_o it_o consist_v of_o two_o part_n of_o promise_n and_o of_o condition_n of_o those_o promise_n also_o that_o the_o promise_n of_o it_o be_v make_v upon_o account_n and_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o christ_n his_o undertake_n as_o mediator_n that_o the_o great_a and_o special_a promise_n of_o it_o be_v pardon_n of_o sin_n or_o justification_n the_o assistance_n of_o god_n spirit_n in_o our_o endeavour_v to_o perform_v the_o condition_n and_o eternal_a life_n that_o the_o condition_n on_o which_o these_o promise_n be_v make_v be_v faith_n in_o christ_n repentance_n sincere_a obedience_n and_o the_o crave_n of_o the_o assistance_n of_o god_n spirit_n in_o the_o use_n of_o appoint_a mean_n and_o our_o endeavour_n to_o perform_v the_o condition_n that_o they_o be_v careful_a also_o to_o form_v right_a notion_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o condition_n on_o our_o part_n on_o which_o the_o promise_v of_o the_o new-covenant_n be_v make_v as_o that_o no_o faith_n short_a of_o such_o a_o belief_n in_o christ_n and_o of_o his_o doctrine_n as_o work_v unfeigned_a repentance_n and_o sincere_a obedience_n be_v justify_v and_o save_v that_o no_o repentance_n short_a of_o a_o desire_n resolution_n and_o endeavour_n to_o forsake_v all_o know_a sin_n be_v save_v repentance_n that_o no_o

such_o be_v sincere_a that_o no_o faith_n no_o repentance_n no_o obedience_n short_a of_o these_o as_o thus_o describe_v be_v a_o fulfil_n of_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o promise_n of_o salvation_n in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n as_o these_o great_a thing_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v in_o scripture_n express_v in_o great_a plainness_n so_o great_a care_n must_v be_v have_v to_o keep_v close_o
