A90866 Theos anthrōpophoros. Or, God incarnate. Shewing, that Jesus Christ is the onely, and the most high God· In four books. Wherein also are contained a few animadversions upon a late namelesse and blasphemous commentary on the Epistle to the Hebrewes, published under the capital letters, G.M. anno Dom. 1647. In these four books the great mystery of man's redemption and salvation, and the wayes and means thereof used by God are evidently held out to the capacity of humane reason, even ordinary understandings. The sin against the Holy Ghost is plainly described; with the cases and reasons of the unpardonablenesse, or pardonablenesse thereof. Anabaptisme, is by Scripture, and the judgment of the fathers shewed to be an heinous sin, and exceedingly injurious to the Passion, and blood of Christ. / By Edm. Porter, B.D. sometimes fellow of St. John's Colledge in Cambridge, and prebend of Norwich. Porter, Edmund, 1595-1670.; Downame, John, d. 1652. 1655 (1655) Wing P2985; Thomason E1596_1; ESTC R203199 270,338 411

gosple-covenant_n be_v call_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n i_o answer_v that_o this_o one_o covenant_n be_v both_o for_o if_o the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v not_o actual_o and_o perfect_o do_v and_o

be_v indeed_o write_v and_o seal_v and_o testify_v but_o not_o in_o force_n because_o the_o testater_n be_v not_o actual_o dead_a but_o in_o the_o gospel_n this_o old_a testament_n be_v the_o same_o
