A76101	The arrovv of the Almighty shot out of the creatures bowe, against the uncalled ministers in England. Or, A messages sent to them to forewarn them of their determined destruction, before it fall upon them. Likewise here is shewed, from whence they had their calling into the ministery; and how all people have been decieved by them. Here is also a glass wherein all formalists may see their own deformity, and so seek after that which is the substance, wherein all their deformity shall be done away. Likewise here is opened the mystery of the Lords Supper, and the mystery in Baptism; and how there is a threefold Baptism, having relation to the three fold name of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; with other truths very needful to be known. All of them being laid down in as brief a manner as possiblemay be, for the use and instruction of the Presbyterians, Independants, and Anabaptists, so called; or for the good of all others who have a minde to seek God in a right way; and in the conclusion, a word to the free-gracians.

our_o power_n be_v terrible_a as_o a_o army_n with_o banner_n against_o all_o who_o will_v not_o worship_n god_n in_o our_o way_n for_o our_o way_n of_o worship_n be_v the_o only_a way_n of_o

rend_v in_o piece_n and_o all_o be_v because_o we_o want_v our_o power_n to_o compel_v and_o to_o execute_v justice_n upon_o the_o opposer_n but_o see_v it_o be_v so_o we_o will_v wait_v with_o

yet_o have_v we_o not_o depart_v from_o the_o way_n of_o our_o god_n nor_o deal_v unfaithful_o in_o his_o covenant_n nay_o we_o appeal_v to_o our_o god_n for_o witness_n who_o know_v our_o heart_n that_o we_o keep_v close_o to_o our_o religious_a worship_v of_o he_o for_o neither_o do_v we_o allow_v of_o any_o to_o be_v our_o pastor_n but_o such_o as_o have_v come_v in_o by_o the_o right_a

of_o god_n of_o none_o effect_v by_o your_o tradition_n for_o this_o be_v the_o do_v of_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n by_o which_o they_o be_v blind_v and_o can_v not_o know_v christ_n to_o be_v

of_o some_o ground_n in_o scripture_n for_o so_o do_v but_o yet_o you_o have_v no_o evidence_n nor_o command_v in_o all_o the_o new_a testament_n for_o observe_v the_o first_o day_n after_o the_o

and_o in_o observe_v of_o that_o day_n i_o will_v have_v you_o to_o observe_v it_o as_o by_o tradition_n and_o not_o by_o command_n and_o likewise_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o obedience_n to_o the_o

the_o four_o also_o be_v set_v apart_o for_o pious_a end_n but_o not_o to_o make_v they_o principle_n in_o religion_n but_o herein_o be_v the_o weakness_n and_o ignorance_n of_o man_n make_v

i_o come_v to_o a_o second_o principle_n in_o your_o religion_n viz._n the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n but_o that_o sacrament_n be_v not_o a_o proper_a name_n for_o it_o for_o it_o be_v
