A85415Mr. Ash, Mr. Candrey, Mr. Calamie, Mr. Burgesse?
A85415Must we needs speake nothing but non- sence, and inconsistencies, to be free from Errours and Heresies?
A85415Or doth not this plainly imply, that there is apprehension of errour in the respective Dissenters amonst them?
A85415Or he that sowes only tares in his field, to finde himselfe agrieved, that the earth makes him not a returne in wheate?
A85415Some of you( I suppose) can not be ignorant, but that they are: but doe you therefore judge them Errours or Heresies?
A85415The said Testimony produceth my Errors& Heresies( so called) by whole pages,& half pages, as if it were loth to leave any romth for other mens?
A85415Was it to represent me to your Reader as a man of monstrous and prodigious errours?
A85415and again; where, and in what other part of it, they give testimony against Errours and Heresies?
A85415and not rather a direct course to harden and strengthen men in both?
A85415commend the governement, whereunto the hearts of the Authors seeme to be so impotently lifted up, by the successe wherewith it hath been crowned?
A85415e Si non sit Dei gratia, quomodo salvat mundum?

A85419If he may, from whom, or by whom, shall this surplussage of power be conceived to be derived unto him?
A85419Man, who hath made me a Judg, or Divider over you?
A85419Or in case a Christian State should thus practise, would it not be a snare of confirmation and obduration upon the Mahometan in his way?
A85419Or is it a thing equitable or lawful to impose Mulcts and Penalties upon blind men, whose eyes were put out by their parents, because they see not?
A85419Or is their fact in preaching the Gospel upon such terms, and before any publique approbation, any ways censurable by the Word of God?
A85419Or ought not rather the Heads and Principals in such Tumults be enquired out, and punished?
A85419Or was the Ark of God in any real danger of suffering inconvenience by the shaking of the Oxen, in case Vzzah had not intermedled to prevent it?
A85419Or whether is a Christian State any whit the more like to receive countenance or blessing from God, for such practices in it as these?
A85419Or who, according to the Word of God, shall be judged meet to umpire in this so great and difficult an affair?
A85419The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go, and gather them up?
A85419Whether is not the manifestation of the Spirit( as the Apostle termeth the manifest gifts of the Spirit of God) given to every man to profit withall?
A85419and again, Neither be ye called Masters?
A85419and that there is no infallible Judg on Earth in Controversies incident to Christian Religion?
A85419and whether was not God offended with him notwithstanding, making a breach upon him by slaying him in the place?
A85419or upon what account can be justifie himself in the exercise of it?
A8540021. that he spake concerning the Temple of his body?
A85400And if Ministers be invested in the Propheticall office of Christ, how dares Mr Prynne refuse to hearken unto them?
A85400And is there any harme in this counsell or contrariety either to the Policy or Practice of any wise or godly man?
A85400And where is the prediction of his delivering up his Kingdome unto his Father, if he hath delivered it up( or down rather) unto men?
A85400But if he means, one and the same ministeriall and visible Church, we answer, by demanding, How can this thing be?
A85400For 1. if such members when excommunicated, doe not actually cease to be members, I would know whether then they cease to be such potentially onely?
A85400For are not the Offices of Christ incommunicable?
A85400For who is there that would set a bungler on work, that hath judgement and reason enough to chuse a Master- workman?
A85400He might rationally enough have argued and concluded here; Why not the one as well as the other?
A85400Or may we, or can we differ in judgement from that, which is not contrary to our opinion?
A85400Otherwise how shall they who have no skill in their professions, come to know or understand, so much as by conjecture, who are the best in them?
A85400The reason is plaine: because the evill Spirit that said a, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; yet said to the Exorcists, but who are yee?
A85400The tenor of the place is this; And when thou art spoyled, what wilt thou doe?
A85400There may be many reasons why one man closeth not with another in point of judgement( and consequently why not in practice also?)
A85400What contentiones, quarrels, emulations, suits amongst them from day to day, any such subordination or subjection notwithstanding?
A85400What inconvenience is there in this?
A85400Where is then the promise of the Everlastingnesse of his Kingdome, and of the continuance of his dominion throughout all ages?
A85400Whom shall we rather beleeve concerning God, then God himself?
A85400appropriable only unto him who is 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, God& Man, and Mediator?

A85400yea, or to this; that no Doctrine or Way ought to be suppressed, untill it be certainly known, whether they be from God, or no?
A854161. Who is this that darkneth counsell by words without knowlege?
A85416And whether are these weapons carnall, or spirituall?
A85416And whether doe not they, who here seeke to plucke up the tares, by such an Ordinance, plucke up the wheat also there, by the same?
A85416Are they bound to beleeve in this kinde( I mean, beyond what they are able to comprehend by reason) without measure, bounds, or limits?
A85416If so, are they bound to beleeve all things without exception, that shall any wayes, or by any hand be presented unto them?
A85416In what sence doth the Ordinance make it erroneous and punishable, to hold, that God seeth no sin in the justified?
A85416O ● what repugnancy is there in either of those things, unto any of these?
A85416Or doth it intend, all, and all manner of Government by Presbytery, in what sense or notion soever?
A85416Or who have any power or authority from God to appoint Judges in such cases as they please?
A85416Quid ergo saviunt, ut Stulticiam suam dum minuere volunt, augeant?
A85416Quid prodest habere zelum Dei,& non- habere scientiam Dei?
A85416What does the Ordinance mean, by blasph ● ming the name of God, or any of the Holy Trinity?
A85416What doth the Ordinance mean, by impugning the word of God?
A85416What doth the Ordinance mean, by publishing Doctrines with obstinacy?
A85416Whether was there ever any such Ordinance, or State act, ever heard of, or knowne, in any the Reformed Churches?
A85416doth it mean any kinde or degree of sin, against the third Commandement?
A85416doth it mean, the opposing by way of argument and discourse, every truth contained and delivered in the Word of God?
A85416inasmuch as there is a sence,( if not more then one) wherein it is most certainly true, that God seeth no sin in such persons( a)?
A85416nay, who place a great part of their Christianity, in walking, if not contrary to it, yet quite beside it?
A85416or in what Congregation doth it intend it?
A85416or those who as yet stand undeclared in either?
A85416or whether doth it measure children, by age, or by understanding?
A85416whether those, that already are profoundly ingaged on the one hand?
A85416which is not Parochiall, or held in a Parish- Church, whether then doth the Ordinance intend any such Renunciation at all?
A85422And how impertinent is it in arguing, to suppose that without proof, which a man knoweth is denyed by his adversary?
A85422And the Lord added unto the Church, who?
A85422But how impertinently to his Cause, and with how little proof, is this affirmed?
A85422But passing by this, how impertinently doth he argue that little which he undertakes, in the words mentioned?
A85422But what is there in this passage, to prove that one Baptism, or one kind of Baptism, is the foundation of a Church, more then another?
A85422By what principle in reason is this consequence formed?
A85422Do they affect to be either more wise or more Holy then God?
A85422Doth he judge this rule binding unto us now?
A85422For are they not these?
A85422For if we may take liberty to cast away one Law of Gospel Order, and Worship, then why not two, and so three, and in the end, all?
A85422For what though it never so sufficiently appears that men and women did beleeve before they were baptized?
A85422How much then is a man better then a sheep?
A85422How uncouth, sapless, and without savor, are such conceits and reasonments as these?
A85422If they practise in one case without Example, why do they not the like in the other?
A85422Is the Scripture express for any thing to precede the enjoyment of it self?
A85422Or can any pretence or plea whatsoever render the children of such high misdemeanors excusable before the Judgment Seat of Christ?
A85422Or do all men sin who Prophesy[ i. e. joyn with him that preahcheth the Word, in the act of hearing] with their heads covered?
A85422Or doth he think that that rule, by which those Christians acted in the case specified, is binding unto us now?
A85422Or is not his meaning in saying so many of us as,& c. clearly this, that as many of us Saints, or of us beleevers, who have been baptized?
A85422Such as were baptized?
A85422Tell us were they baptized, or no?
A85422This sence of the place considered, how frivolous and impertinent is this supercilious Interrogatory, which he builds upon it?
A85422What frivolous and empty reasonings are these?
A85422What is this to justifie thee in going in unto them?
A85422Whereas he demands; What is a not admiting, less, then a refusing to admit, them to such communion?
A85422Whereas he demands; Why doth the Querist make circumcision a Gospel rite, which is indeed a rite abolished by the Gospel?
A85422Will he say that women were circumcised?
A85422Ye did run well; who did hinder you, that ye should not obey the Truth?
A85422and consequently such Gospel Order layd totally aside?
A85422if two, why not ten, and so an hundred, or a thousand?
A85422or that all those, who were not circumcised in the Wilderness, were excluded from all acts of Church communion for Forty Years together?
A85422or that any kind of Baptism, more then imposition of hands?
A85422or that they were excluded form acts of Church- communion, because they were uncircumcised?
A85422or without a rule binding unto them?
A85393( b) Curse you with Bell, Book, and Candle?
A85393( b) If I did exhort or incourage men to go boldly unto Jesus Christ, doth not the great Apostle the same?
A85393( c) Dr. Kendal hath charged you home to the life: why do you not answer his challenge?
A85393( c) Is the not authorizing some men to word it with the Holy Ghost, to charge the Blasphemies and Heresies of the times upon the Holy Ghost?
A8539316. will you ask him, did you not mean PROVDLY?
A853935. Who are in a regular capacity of power, to nominate and appoint such persons, to whom the said power over the Press ought to be committed?
A853938. and much more of those other Penmen of the Scriptures, who so frequently call the Idols of the Heathens, by the name of Gods also?
A85393A many- headed Beast thou art; for what, or who, May I with peace and safety, for my Guide allow?
A85393And if the case were thus with you and them, how should their Kingdome,( and consequently your interest therein) stand?
A85393And who knows not but the same words may have different interpretations and senses put upon them?
A85393Are not you men, who abhominate to make use of your own wits, reasons, or judgements in matters of Religion, especially to trust unto them?
A85393Are there no such doings in those parts of your Common- wealth of learning, which you are wo nt to frequent and visit?
A85393Are you Heaven, or any the Inhabitants thereof?
A85393But if your handling me, as you have done in your Epistle, be your sparing me, what would your inclemential and hard intreatings of me have been?
A85393But what saith it?
A85393Do I anywhere ascribe unto God an Autocratorical Majesty over Books and Opinions?
A85393Do you not wonder that men should speak, or understand any thing?
A85393For if many things, or many spirits of Doctrines be not suffered to come to the knowledge of men, how shall they be able to try them?
A85393For if the case were thus with God, should not the world have cause to demand ▪ with those in Malachy, Where is the God of judgement?
A85393For was there ever any man, who lost himself, by seeking God constantly?
A85393How then shall men of your trade, yea or our selves, have that liberty you speak of?
A85393I may have cause indeed to wonder at your boldness in sining, but have you any cause to wonder at that, which is not?
A85393I pray what is the Blasphemy, and what is the Errour of which you have accused me?
A85393If it be the former, how is the civil Magistrate in a capacity of conferring it, or investing any man with it?
A85393If it be the latter, how are men set apart for the ministery of the Word of God, and prayer, capable of the investiture?
A85393If so, Fortis ubi est Ajax?
A85393Is not he one of the six, if not of the three?
A85393It seems you claim a right of power to make Licencers: What need you petition the Parliament?
A85393Mr. Horn?
A85393Or can you prove darknesse to be light, or the night day?
A85393Or do you wonder that men in speech, should sometimes use metaphors?
A85393Or doth it follow from hence, so much as by a dream of a consequence, that therefore the Press ought not to be free, because all things are not free?
A85393Or is your Office of Presse- over- sight an alien to Religion, and irrelative to it?
A85393Or that all men are not either Horses, or Mules?
A85393Or what evil or untruth, is there in this connex proposition; If God reprobated any from Eternity, it must be himself?
A85393The truth is, that to a State Religion it may be aptly said; Belluae multorum es capitum: nam quid sequar, aut quem?
A85393Then the High Priest rent his clothes, saying, he hath spoken blasphemy: What further need have we of witnesses?
A85393To say that Abraham begat Isaack, is it to charge Sarah with being an Adultresse?
A85393What do you mean by The Religion, which the State owneth?
A85393What do you mean, by the Christian Religion?
A85393What if I do say, as you say I do?
A85393When you say that all things are not free, in a free Common- wealth, do you speak to any purpose?
A85393Whether the said power over the Press bee an Ecclesiastick, or civil power?
A85393Yea, or what do you your selves think?
A85393You say we give pernicious counsel to the Parliament, and advise them to authorize some men, Sir- named Orthodox, to word it with the Holy Ghost?
A85393Your thought, that my works need not be called in, is very grave and considerate: should you not do well, humbly to present it to the Parliament?
A85393do none of your Prophets speak Metaphors at any time?
A85393is it not more proper to say, that Abraham begat Isaac, then to say, that God begat him?
A85393or unto Holiness, then to honour those that are most polluted and abominable, as much as those that are holy?
A85393that Peter warmed himself?
A85393where do I talk either of your, or any other mans, impeaching David of Athisme?
A85393where, or what is the necessity of the greatest Preacher under Heaven, in respect of them?
A85393will Jesus Christ make proud or humble, those that come unto him?
A85407To the readersigned: John Goodwin?
A85407( AND YET THEY CAME IN BY THE SWORD, AND KEPT GODS CHURCH IN BONDAGE,) how much more should our Governours be honored by all people in our Nation?
A85407An accusation even against an elder, may under two or three witnesses, lawfully be received; how much more under twenty?
A85407And Job stopt the mouth of his discontented wife, with this demand; What?
A85407But if there be none really dis- satisfied, what meaneth then the bleating of the sheep, and the lowing of the oxen?
A85407For how then should the world in any part of it become regenerate?
A85407How would the peace of the nation rejoyce over such an agreement, as this?
A85407If the premises will stand, who are more desireable by a people in the places of Rule and Authority, then those, who have been their great Preservers?
A85407Is it not good if peace and truth be in thy days, and mine; who am Thy Friend, heart and Soul in the Truth, JOHN GOODWIN?
A85407Or did not the Lord Christ upon their motion turn himself towards them, and rebuke them in these words; Ye know not what manner of Spirit ye are of b?
A85407Or had He been in any capacity to inrich the inhabitants thereof with his treasures, as they are now inriched by him?
A85407Or in case the Sun should be over- ruled to change place with the Moon, should not the world have cause in abundance to lament the change?
A85407Or is not the Act of Preserving of very neer a ● in to the Act of Begeting?
A85407Or is this, in the dialect, or sence, of the Holy Ghost, to, HONOUR GOVERNOURS?
A85407Should men be offended at their Benefactours?
A85407The former, this: Did the Authors hear those Teachers, which he doth defame?
A85407The latter this: Doth the Author judg that all commands of all Superiors, are always to be obeyed?
A85407Whether are not they rather Back- biters of sin, then Reprovers, who importunely declaim and cry out against the Sins of those that are Absent?
A85407Whether is there any kind of zeal more ecstatical and fierie, then that which is blind, and without knowledg?
A85407Whether is, or ought, the letter of the Law, to be observed in all cases whatsoever?
A85407directing them to some such change of the Government, as that which is now in being?
A85407had it been meet for him to have answered, Nay; but I will serve thee faithfully beneath in the valley?
A85407out unto us according to the just demerit of such our misdemeanors against them?
A85407shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?
A85407the weak complaints of many simple ones, and the lowder vociferations of others great in their own eyes, against the present Government?
A85407who hath be witched me?
A85407who hath bewitched the Answerer, to appear in this kind to weaken the hands of the righteous, and to make their heart sad, whom God hath not sadded?
A85408& c. Yea, are not both women and children to be understood, where men only are named?
A854081, 2* even as Subjects are under the names of their Kings, and Families and Descents, under the names of their Heads?
A854081, 4?
A854083, or 4 ▪& c. would such an act as this be unlawful?
A85408And as for any competent ground otherwise to justifie the practice, hath such a thing ever seen the light of the Sun hitherto?
A85408And besides, is it not altogether irrational to imagine or think, that Faith should be required in order unto Baptism, simply for Faiths sake?
A85408Be no ways constrained, or solicited to communicate in this practice?
A85408If not, is it any ways necessary that we should believe, or ought it to be any Article of our Faith to believe, that they were baptized?
A85408If not, is not the practise of it traditional, and the product of humane discourse, as well, and as much, as the Baptizing of Infants?
A85408If so, how, or wherein doth the excess of the danger, or evil of the consequence appear?
A85408Or are such differences as these, of no authority, interest, or import, to umpire or decide the controversie depending between the two Baptisms?
A85408Or are there not many cases, wherein a man may break a Law,[ i. e. a standing Law, or a Law provided for ordinary cases] and yet be blameless?
A85408Or are there not several grounds, and these near at hand, very material and weighty, to strengthen this conjecture?
A85408Or doth not our Saviour in the Gospel justifie that action of theirs notwithstanding?
A85408Or hath the practice of admitting women to the Lords Table, any such, either precept, or example, to justifie it?
A85408Or is there any precept, which injoyns baptizing, or dipping, in the name of Christ, after a baptizing in infancy into this name?
A85408Or is there either vola or vestigium, little or much of such a practise as this to be found in the Scriptures, where they speak of Baptism?
A85408Or is there not as much difference between hot water, and cold, as is between a child, and a man?
A85408Or that God, or Christ, should enjoyn a requirement of them upon such a slender account as this?
A85408That the Apostle to the former writeth thus: Know ye not, that SO MANY OF US as were baptized into Jesus Christ, were baptized into his death?
A85408Whether did the Lord Christ, pointing to any river, or water, say, Vpon this water will I build my Church?
A85408or is there any such precept, as that mentioned, or example in Scripture, for the warrant of it?
A85408or profession of Faith, meerly for this Professions sake?
A85408that He was the Son of the living God, which Peter had confessed, say, Vpon this Rock will I build my Church a?
A85408that it became him to fulfil all RIGHTEOVSNES a?
A85408that there were no Beleevers unbaptized in the Apostles days,) the contrary being apparant( as may be touched hereafter?)
A85408why are they then baptized for the dead c?
A85408yea and some cases, wherein he may do it with commendation?
A85414& c. How long will this Great Goliah of the Presbyterians thus boast himselfe?
A85414( I can not think they will refuse it) would they in such a case imprison banish or cause Hereticks to die in this their Principality?
A85414All the principles which concerne coercive Discipline in, about, or for the Church are common both to Papists and Presbyterians?
A85414And Thirdly, Vpon what ● ● ● all and inditement?
A85414And doe you so soone boggle at the same Querie afterwards?
A85414And doe you thus require them?
A85414And why may not the Civil Magistrate as well excommunicate, as banish or otherwise punish any Hereticks?
A85414Are not all such condemned for unproffitable servants who put a candle under a bushel?
A85414Are not both Houses of Parliament, are not millions of the people enough to do justice in such a case?
A85414Are their soules not worth saving?
A85414Are they not damned because they doubt thereof?
A85414Are we thus leap''t out of the Popish frying- pan into the midst of Presbyterian firebrands?
A85414Are you not asham''d thus to uncover the nakednesse of your Churches?
A85414At what time the Church Officers be negligent in their charge, not willing to reforme; and when they oppresse any man with Ecclesiasticall censures?
A85414Because Papists do ill in compelling Protestants to heare an Idolatrons Masse; may not Protestants do well to force Papists to heare Godly sermons?
A85414But do we not by dayly experience in all places and houses find the Independents wrangling with the Presbyterians about Church controversies?
A85414But is it fitting then for everie man to be of what religion he will?
A85414But must all the world bee mad or sottish to beleeve you?
A85414But put the case you did really desire the New- English their conversion?
A85414But what if the Civill Magistrate be without, not of the Church?
A85414But what shall I say unto you, since according to your Theologie, nothing is so likely to prevaile with you as cudgelling?
A85414But you will say, you fast and pray; you mean and hope well; May not a companie of Tinckers and Coblers say the like?
A85414By their cruel persecuting or tormenting Christians?
A85414By what authoritie does the Civil Magistrate punish a Heretick?
A85414Can the Priests in Frame, the Divels in Hell, or Presbyterians anywhere, do worse by Protestants?
A85414Can you not let him have the lesser of Excommunication and other Ceremonious( in comparison of Civil Coercive) Censures?
A85414Can you or any Synod say they are, or will be at any time, at their pleasure infallibly assisted by the Holy Ghost?
A85414Conventicles where so many several doctrins are taught?
A85414Did not Nature engrave it in the hearts of al men, that it is better to obey God than man?
A85414Did not the Apostles for our clearer understanding resolve it when''t was made a question?
A85414Did they not refuse to joyn with the Cavaliers in fighting against the Scots?
A85414Doe not all punishments inflicted for spiritual offences, equally become spiritual?
A85414Does it not remaine then, that wee should consider which of them is accompained with the greatest inconveniences?
A85414For adding to it is ipso facto altering, and it is said thou shalt not adde thereto?
A85414For lapping up their tallent in a napkin?
A85414For not strengthning others after they themselves are converted?
A85414Have not the Independents fought for the Parliament against the Cavaleers?
A85414How can King, Parliament, or Synod wrest it from him?
A85414How know you which is Gods ● ● oure for convincing of a man?
A85414If Jesuited Papists and other subtle Hereticks be suffered, will they not likely seduce many unto their erroneous by- pathes?
A85414If a combination of any people should thus compasse the death of any man, would they not all equally bee found guiltie?
A85414If not; Why doe you take so much upon you?
A85414If there be but one true religion, why should we suffer above one religion in a Country?
A85414If this Disciplin be strictly observed; How can they possibly attaine to better light and knowledge?
A85414Is it not a pious act to compel a companie of carelesse idle people to hear a good sermon, to do a good work whether they will or no?
A85414Is it not an ungodly thing to suffer men to be of any religion?
A85414Is it not equally impossible for a Church- Society as for a Cytie to continue long without a Government?
A85414Is it not secondarily in the people, as well as Civil power which you affirme in the same page?
A85414Is not this to adde to Scripture?
A85414May it not prove the neerest home, according to the proverb?
A85414May not diversity of opinions cause dissentions or breach of love in a Country or Cyttie?
A85414May not the Civil Goverment interpose to punish such Church- members with whom the spiritual, by reason of their refractorines can not prevaile?
A85414May not the permitting men to teach and imbrace new opinions be occasion that we quite loose old truthes?
A85414Must we then suffer men to run headlong in the way to Hell, if they have neither will nor understanding to prevent it of themselve ●?
A85414Must your conscience therefore become a rule, a yoake to other mens?
A85414Nay, to alter it?
A85414Nay, what thinke you?
A85414Nay, will he not plead non- age?
A85414Oh that you would but ba ● e us these impertinencies, these inconsistencies ▪ how many fair sheetes of paper would it have saved from fowling?
A85414Or is it not necessary they should be spiritual to work a Spiritual effect?
A85414Or their Country not worth living in?
A85414Or why may not the Old- English be thought as charitably on, or find the like favour from your over dilligent Presbyerie?
A85414Ought we not then at least to keepe our different opinions and religion unto our selves in obedience to the Civil Magistrate that co ● maunds it?
A85414Secondly, For what cause does the Civil Magistrate punish this Church Offender?
A85414That if as yet wee have but some degrees of truth and knowledge, it shall be impossible for us to attain to greater?
A85414That though we were in possession of the true Religion, wee should bee liable to have it taken from us by everie sharper Civil sword than our owne?
A85414To tell us and them that the Presbyterian world takes up a religion and government upon trust?
A85414To which I answer, that your Ministers and you too, may bee rash in saying so, as you are in other matters: Who can hinder you?
A85414What if hee become Heretical, Schismaticall ● must he ● not bee proceeded against by the utmost of Church censures, to wit, excommunication?
A85414What if it should seeme to you the farthest way about?
A85414What if the Civill Magistrate will not learne Gods will by the Ministers of the Church?
A85414What if you can not find one of them in a fat Benefice?
A85414What is it he punishes him for?
A85414What mean they by one true religion, one way, one faith?
A85414What power hath the King or Parliament to intrude and force upon the Kingdome new religions or a tolleration of all Sects?
A85414Where find you such an authoritive power as is by you insinuated?
A85414Where find you that it would be either for Gods glorie, or the Churches weale it should be so?
A85414Whether can the Gospel bee truly and throughly propagated without such infallible officers?
A85414Whom God therefore had mercie on) shall rise up in judgement against all Protestants which know Gods will and do it not?
A85414Will not this smal pittance of ingenuity reconcile you( how fierce soever) unto the Independents?
A85414Will you not say good cause why, because the Presbyterians would quickly heave them out, and get themselves ● n?
A85414You ask What power hath either King or Parliament to intrude and force upon the Kingdome new religions or a toleration of all Sects?
A85414You say, that what seemeth good to the Holy Ghost, should likewise seeme good to all Ministers; I say so too; but not contrariwise?
A85414],[ London?
A85414and last of all, Where find you that a certain nomber of Ecclesiasticall men, may be the Representative Church of the whole world?
A85414avoyd this consequence?
A85414because you are rash to say you know not what?
A85414binds them over remedilesse, give other sentence?
A85414calls the Apologists a Sect?
A85414can you not with Paul be contented that God should judge him?

A85414his doctrine bee turned out, or cut off from the Civill State?
A85414is it possible to reconcile the Civil Magistrate unto the spirituall office- bearers in such a case as this?
A85414ought you not to endeavour their conversion equal to your brethrens of Old- England, and that as well unto your Disciplin as to your doctrin?
A85414so dull, so stupid, so voide both of Civil and Christian policie?
A85414thus play at fast and loose?
A85414were not this to hang the Christian libertie of the whole Church Militant upon the arbitrary proceedings of some few perticular congregations only?
A85414yea, and that in all humane probability they are like to be crossed?
A85414yet for a farther setling of it?
A85414you approve of them in suffering no opinions to be published but their owne?
A64002& why not?
A64002& would to the end persevere in wicked workes; So then they could be changed but would not: But in what respect is it said they could be changed?

A640022 How doth God communicate grace unto his creatures?
A640022 da, at the end of these words Praescientia peccatorum potest esse aliqua ratio reprobationis: but how?
A640022, Ex alterâ parte; An Infidelitas in eodem Consilio& Decreto Dei de reprobatione ad exitium, eam ipsam reprobationem ordine praecedat an sequatur?
A6400220. inquiring how it is said that the Lord bid Shimei to curse David; Quomodo dixit Dominus huic homini maledicere David?
A6400225, How then is it possible for me to believe and repent, unlesse God give me the grace of faith and repentance?
A640023 Are all beasts for meat?

A64002According whereunto the Apostle having demanded, saying, What is then the preferment of the Jew?
A64002Again when formerly he did embrace the doctrine of absolute reprobation, upon what grounds did he embrace it?
A64002Again, it is in vain to serve God, and what profit is it that we have kept his commandements, that we have walked humbly before the Lord of hosts?
A64002Againe I have already shewed out of Remigius, that a wicked man can doe that which is good, but by what meanes?
A64002Againe consider who are more oppressed by the men of this world then the Children of God?
A64002Againe observe he saith that by our doctrine the whole ministery is a mere imposture,& why?
A64002Againe, Is it to be expected, that any doctrine should be well spoken of, by such as are opposites and adversaries thereunto?
A64002Againe, their opposites doctrine, was it never received or preached''till those daies?
A64002Among whom doth Antichrist prevaile by all deceivablenesse?
A64002And are God''s judgments executed only by God''s permission, and that by the hands of them that are judged and punished?
A64002And are not his magistrates his Ministers to execute vengeance temporall here in this world?
A64002And are not these then the gifts of God as well as others?
A64002And as for God''s secret providence in evill, how plentifull is the Scripture concerning this?
A64002And as for Gods sparing a man in case God gives not repentance, what will be the issue, but filling up of the measure of their sinnes?
A64002And as for hell fire it selfe, could not he qualifie or increase the tormenting nature thereof as he should thinke good?
A64002And as for impenitency, doth this Author, or any Arminian deny it to be a fruit of that originall corruption wherein all are borne?
A64002And as for the justice of God, must not this suppose him to be a free agent?
A64002And as touching our Tenet herein, is there any such harshnesse in saying, that God causeth a leprous child to be borne of Leprous parents?
A64002And bid him pay that he owes him?
A64002And can any sober man dout whether God be invincible whom the Apostle pronounceth to be irresistable?
A64002And could he presume his Reader would prove so simple and Sottish, as not to observe this incongruity?
A64002And dares he say that it is possible to any man, whether elect or reprobate, without grace?
A64002And did not Ahab deserve as much at the hands of God?
A64002And did not God professe that he would provoke the Israelites by a foolish people, and by a foolish nation he would anger them?
A64002And doth he not feed up all his hearers with hope of salvation as well as we?
A64002And doth he not know that Austin sometimes sayd that, Iudas electus est ad prodendum sanguinem Domini, Iudas was chosen to betray his Master?
A64002And doth it become Christians to admire such heathenish courses of men nothing acquainted with the divine providence?
A64002And doth not Austin professe that if we knew who were reprobate, we would no more pray for them, then for the Devills?
A64002And doth not Bellarmine professe that malū fieri permitt sin& Deo bonū est, it is good that evill should cō to passe by Gods permission?
A64002And doth not he the like?
A64002And doth not the Scripture expresly testifie as much?
A64002And doth this Authour well in coupling death with deprivation of being, as if every one, or any one that is dead were deprived of being?
A64002And farther consider; Is it safe to measure out Gods proceedings, by the proceedings of men?
A64002And had they means sufficient without, and ability sufficient within to know him?
A64002And hath a man no cause to be thankfull unto God for one gift, unlesse he will adde another?
A64002And he is loath to fall so foule in censuring such as he is?
A64002And hereupon this objection is made, Why then doth God complaine( to wit, of man''s disobedience) for who hath resisted his will?
A64002And how I pray, or in what sence doth he say that God by his providence will not suffer this doctrine to have any stroke in our lives?
A64002And how I pray?
A64002And how can it appeare that they doe acknowledge this?
A64002And how canst thou make it appeare, that any one that ever was or is, hath greater interest therein then thy selfe?
A64002And how did he intend that unto them?
A64002And how doe we more scandalize the Churches Lutheran herein, then they scandalize us?
A64002And how doe wee feed them up with hopes of salvation?
A64002And how doth he worke in us this will?
A64002And how great good did he procure therehence to all believers?
A64002And how to deliver them?
A64002And how was this?
A64002And if God may justly damne all for sinne originall as Mr. Hoord affirmes, why may not God leave all irrecoverably in it; and that justly?
A64002And if I have not as yet the will to repent, how is it possible I should repent?
A64002And if Vossius his reason to salve Faustus his credit, were of force in this, why should it not be in force in the other also?
A64002And if any man be not ashamed to argue as he did( saith Austin) let us not be ashamed to answer as the Apostle did: and how was that?
A64002And if he talkes in our meaning why doth he not talke in our language?
A64002And if it be not lawfull for us to provoke another unto sin, will it follow forthwith, that it is not lawfull for God to provoke?
A64002And if lawes doe nothing, wherefore are they made?
A64002And if the conferring and denying of this grace be absolute; how much more are the decrees hereof to be accounted most absolute?
A64002And if the greatest save two, why not the greatest save one?
A64002And indeed is God''s wisedome and providence so strong, as that he is able to find meanes to glorifie his justice without the permitting of sinne?
A64002And is he not as ready to concurre with him to any sinfull act if he will, and to worke the very will also of doing it in case he will?
A64002And is he well in his wits that talkes of a thousand nothings?
A64002And is it an easy matter for the Devill to perswade such as believe in Christ that they are Reprobates?
A64002And is it fit that every extravagant passage that is found in any Writer of ours should be brought forth to charge our doctrine with?
A64002And is it not apparent, that God decreed the death and those unspeakable sorrowes of his innocent sonne?
A64002And is it not in the power of God to give a mā strength to bear the very pains of hel& that without sin?
A64002And is it not just with God to inflict eternall death on them, whom this Author professeth to be guilty of eternall death?
A64002And is it not lawfull for him to doe what he will with his owne?
A64002And is it possible God''s mercy and the demonstration thereof should have place where there is no sin?
A64002And is it reasonable to subject such a course of Divine providence to the merits of Christ?
A64002And is not the authourity of Austine as good as the authourity of Hierome in this?
A64002And is not this Authour of the same opinion?
A64002And is not this judgement strange?
A64002And is this to work in us the Will according to Gods pleasure, or according to mans good pleasure?
A64002And marke what objection he shapes hereupon, thou wilt say then why doth he yet complaine?
A64002And may they not also resist the Divells temptations if they will?
A64002And must we not waite with our hearers, if so be God may give them repentance?
A64002And observe what Austin speakes in the like case of his mother Monica exercised with the opprobrious speeches of her servant, Quid egisti Deus meus?
A64002And our Saviour speaking of things above our power; Cur estis solliciti?
A64002And refuse to give such grace, as he foresaw would not be resisted, and that without all prejudice to their wills?
A64002And shall Mr. Moulin be brought in to affront St. Paul?
A64002And shall it be unbecōing the divine nature to will that which is good?
A64002And shall it not be lawfull for God to will that which is good?
A64002And shall not God have liberty to will that which is good?
A64002And shall the truth of Christianitie be any whit the worse thought of for this?
A64002And that Cyrus also should build him a Citty and let goe his captives: Yet who doubts, but that Cyrus did freely deliver the Jewes out of Babylon?
A64002And that he might declare the riches of his glory upon the vessells of mercy which he hath prepared unto glory?
A64002And that the ten Kings in giving their Kingdomes to the beast did fullfill the will of God, as touching this particular?
A64002And the Apostle addresseth hereunto no other answer but this, O man who art thou who disputest with God?
A64002And the Apostle saith, Who hath resisted his will?
A64002And then what is to make reprobation to be of evill works, if this be not?
A64002And this being apt to work upon a child, though but naturally ingenuous, why may not God use this course?
A64002And was ever any sober man known to oppose this with such froth of words as this Authour doth?
A64002And was it ever known, that those I have named did shrink in their heads or decline the triall thereof?
A64002And was it not Gods will in like manner, that the Gentiles should proceed as farre as they did in the same businesse?
A64002And was the Church of Jewes, a Church of reprobates, Were they not the City of God, but the city of the Devill?
A64002And was their non- approbation of his doctrine, concerning absolute predestination, any motive to Austin vehemently to mistrust the truth thereof?
A64002And were it not a meer madnesse, to make a breach of unity or charity in the Church of God, meerely upon a poynt of Logick?
A64002And what I pray is to constitute?
A64002And what are the reasons hereof in School- divinity?
A64002And what are these?
A64002And what cause hath Achan to complaine of this temptation?
A64002And what comfort can herehence arise to an afflicted soule, unlesse she doe believe and repent?
A64002And what comfortable creatures must these needes be, upon so various and comfortable considerations?
A64002And what ground hast thou to conceive, that thou art in the number of them whom he hates, rather then of those whom he loves?
A64002And what hath an earthly Father or Mother to doe, either to determine or execute death on any?
A64002And what have we to doe to enquire into Gods counsells, as whether he hath decreed to give us grace or no?
A64002And what is Election Divine?
A64002And what is it to finde God, but to enjoy his face and favour here and in Heaven?
A64002And what is that good sense they make of it?
A64002And what is that worke in man, whereupon God workes faith or repentance in them?
A64002And what is the motive he meanes, but the motive of sinne?
A64002And what is their motive?
A64002And what is this but, Peccata peccatis cumulare?
A64002And what is this other then to say that our life and being depend on God, in the kind of a cause efficient?
A64002And what madnesse is it to say, that the lesse power God hath of receiving change, the lesse power he hath of working?
A64002And what may that be?
A64002And what meant he to professe, that he sanctified himselfe only for them for whom he prayed?
A64002And what one instance hath he given of any Lutheran, speaking against our making the corrupt Masse the object of predestination or reprobation?
A64002And what sinne did God the Father see in Christ the Sonne, that moved him to ordaine his deare Sonne to the suffering of hell paines?
A64002And what to doe doth he suffer them?
A64002And what was the cause of all this, but the hardnesse of their hearts, and the blindnesse of their eyes?
A64002And what were these inconvenient things?
A64002And what willingnesse of abideing the tryall doth this manifest?
A64002And when such judgements have their course, Who are priviledged from being seduced?
A64002And where is it that Bellarmine affirmeth this?
A64002And which is more; what meanes this Authour to carry the matter thus hand over head, as to talke of an impossible condition without all distinction?
A64002And who can separate forgivenesse of sinnes from true repentance?
A64002And who doubts, but that God animating him hereunto, all this was lawfull?
A64002And why are they now become Gods people, which before were no people of God,& c?
A64002And why doth he not keep himselfe unto this?
A64002And why is he not the Authour of all the sinnes of the elect also?
A64002And why is the Devill so called, but because he doth egge and allure men by inward suggestions and outward temptations to fall into sin?
A64002And why may not he also be thus given over to illusions to believe lies?
A64002And why may we not say as well, that God would have Tiberius to fill up the measure of his sinnes?
A64002And why might not Maxentius be ignorant of them both?
A64002And why might we not say so, if God workes it only by concourse?
A64002And why patient towards us?
A64002And why so?
A64002And why so?
A64002And will he not give us leave to propose in proportion hereunto, our maxima gravamina, as touching their opinion in point of election?
A64002And will he not have all& every one to believe& repent?
A64002And wilt not thou allow as much power unto God over thee, or over the matter whereof thou wast made, as the Potter hath power over the clay?
A64002And would any man that is in his right witts, say this is to make salvation destinated to a man before it is destinated to him?
A64002And would this Authour have the will of God to be of a mutable condition, like unto ours?
A64002And would you know of whom he learned this?
A64002And yet was reprobation that alone, whereupon they stirred?
A64002And( let me adde) how can the beliefe of this and true piety stand together?
A64002Apply this to man, first he shewed what his free will could do; wherein?
A64002Are not all Gods ordinances made of his mere pleasure?
A64002Are not all other second causes and second Agents?
A64002Are their sinnes taken away that are damned for them?
A64002Are these also benefits purchased unto us by the merits of Christ?
A64002Are they not called in Scripture the elect Angells?
A64002Are they the Elect only, or chiefly?
A64002Art thou he that troubleth Israel?
A64002Art thou privy Councellour to the Almighty?
A64002As also for the overthrowing of Gods immutability; for can it be denied, that when God damnes them, he will have them to perish?
A64002As for Mathematici which were banished out of Rome, were those Divines, or Astrologers rather?
A64002As for example, What was the end of creation?
A64002As for faith and repentance, we say Christ hath merited them also, but to be bestowed how?
A64002As for that of our Saviour Cur estis solliciti de vestitu?
A64002As for the leaving many of our own very ill satisfied, why should that seem strange?
A64002As for the liberty and power of a man to performe faith and repentance, whether this be granted unto all?
A64002As for the work of his wife, why might not that be the work of God, as well as the work of Satan?
A64002As touching this Author''s conclusion; Dares he himselfe say that by God''s decree Reprobates shall ever repent or be saved?
A64002Be it so, but how doth he prove that God intends this ministery; for the salvation of reprobates; or that he intends it at all for them?
A64002Be ye holy as I am holy: without holinesse no man shall see God: Spectatum admissi risum teneatis amici?
A64002Bucer also hath a passage like to this, Vt caput omnis noxiae tentationis( saith he) repellenda est quaestio, sumusnè praedestinati?
A64002But Cui bono?
A64002But I pray consider, Doth not our doctrine afford the same assurance as well as theirs?
A64002But I pray consider, was not the doctrine of the Gospell infamous at the first, both amongst Jewes and Gentiles?
A64002But I pray thee tell me, is not the will to repent also the gift of God?
A64002But I pray why might not God intend and determine, that that act should come to passe, aswell as the Jewes crucifying of Christ?
A64002But as for faith and repentance, doth God conferre them conditionally also?
A64002But as for them they are the elect of God; And how doth he know that?
A64002But can he deny these things?
A64002But come we nearer to him than so; What one of our Divines denyeth the performance of this condition to be possible to al men?
A64002But did Calvin think it possible, for corrupt nature, to propagate any other nature then it selfe is?
A64002But doe I say they tooke this course to free God from the imputation of sinne?
A64002But doe they say that God determines the will to sinne?
A64002But doth he not worke also the very act of willing?
A64002But doth it herehence follow, or doth Calvin, or any Calvinist, or Lutheran, or Papist, say, that Adams sinne is made ours only by imputation?
A64002But doth this Author himselfe concurre with Zanchy in this opinion?
A64002But for whose sake?
A64002But how came it to passe?
A64002But how didthe Lord deale with these presumptuous adventurers?
A64002But how doe you prove that Gods decree of liberation from sinne, can not take effect, except it presuppose sinne?
A64002But how doth he prove, that God takes any such course with reprobates?
A64002But how freed?
A64002But how small an occasion doth God take to spare man?
A64002But how?
A64002But if he can so provide the greatest save one, why not the greatest of all?
A64002But if it be dishonesty for a man to take liberty to break his promises, I pray what goodnesse is required to the managing thereof?
A64002But if reprobation and election be eternall; how doe we feed reprobates up with the hope of salvation, more then he himselfe?
A64002But if this be his opinion, what Arminian or Remonstrant concurres with him in this?
A64002But in case a man will repent, what need hath he of any Divine assistance to cause in him this will to repent, seeing he hath it already?
A64002But in case our Doctrine holds, doth he damne any but for sinne?
A64002But in the accommodation of these distinctions unto thy selfe, What ground hast thou to affirme, that God willeth not thy salvation in particular?
A64002But is it fit that he should talke of possibility( as he doth at large,) without any reference to the grace of God?
A64002But is it not fit that the soule which is to be comforted upon this ground should be throughly acquainted with this condition?
A64002But is it possible that a man can will that which is evill against his will?
A64002But is this our doctrine, that God commanded the ravishing of any, the murthering of any, or any other sin whatsoever?
A64002But it Tiberius was circa Deos& religiones negligentior, were the Stoicks so too?
A64002But let all this be granted, what then?
A64002But let every sober man judge whether this be a reasonable desire; what Christian justifies Iob in cursing the day of his birth?
A64002But let me aske another question, Did God intend they should believe in him?
A64002But may not a man proceed farther?
A64002But over whom hath the Divell this power?
A64002But shall we take this hand over head without a difference between a Christian& unchristian, and heathenish interpretation?
A64002But some may say, are there not supernaturall powers bestowed on man as well as naturall?
A64002But suppose Iunius had preferred the third way and not the second, Had he done it out of a desire to decline the absurdities here mentioned?
A64002But supposing these determinations of the creatures wills to be necessary, if God will not determine them to good what will follow herence?
A64002But then he will say, what shall become of all those amplifications of Gods mercy towards men, commended to us in holy Scripture?
A64002But this the tempted will deny, he will say that he is no believer,& c. And how will the Minister convince him that he is?
A64002But to ransack this also, and to speake distinctly, What is the good that God hereby intended them?
A64002But to returne, what doth this author think?
A64002But was not this hope of his grounded upon assurance of faith to enjoy it?
A64002But was there any judgment of God to be observed in this?
A64002But were there not other causes of moment, to move him hereunto, which this Author conceales, and which Beza proposeth in the first place?
A64002But what blessings had the Gentiles more than common blessings; doth he particulate any?
A64002But what decree?
A64002But what doth this Author think of faith and repentance?
A64002But what if there be no such text as this Authour builds upon?
A64002But what is counselling to inforcing?
A64002But what is that operation of providence divine or grace which is the cause of Godlinesse?
A64002But what is the grace were of the Sacrament is a signe?
A64002But what is this to the purpose, namely, that comfort can not be instilled into the soules of Reprobates?
A64002But what moves him to say this, doth not God procure hereby the conversion& salvation of millions?
A64002But what of all this?
A64002But what saith Piscator?
A64002But what say you?
A64002But what sober man will justifie such a saying, I had rather have no being at all then be troubled with the stone, or gout?
A64002But what thinke you?
A64002But what?
A64002But when should this come to passe?

A64002Doth his mercy please him, when he hath made such a decree, as shewes farre more severity towards men then mercy?
A64002Doth it not manifestly appear hereby, that it is Gods will, that sinne shall come to passe by his permission?

A64002Electionis autem quae tibi revelatio?
A64002Fiftly, dost thou blaspheame God, because of Leprous Parents, thou art begot and conceived, and borne a leprous child?
A64002First because it is an argument and ground by which Christ declareth the truth and greatnesse of the misery of Judas, Woe to the man& c And why woe?
A64002First therefore consider, is it fit to resist the evidence of divine truth, because it is harsh to mens affections?
A64002First, I pray consider, what is that light that makes all things manifest?
A64002First, why should you call it an event?
A64002For Manoah said unto his Wife, we shall surely dye because we have seen God;& could a probability to the contrary put by such a temptation as this?
A64002For Maxentius we doe not find to have excepted against his fidelity, more in the one then in the other?
A64002For as God hath professed that whosoever believeth shall be saved, so; Hath not God resolved that whosoever believeth shall be saved?
A64002For consider, is there but one such that never yet was, nor evershall be; or are there many such?
A64002For dare any Arminian deny faith to be the gift of God?

A64002For did not Christ suffer them by the ordinance of his Father?
A64002For did not Satan sin in all this?

A64002For doe not they maintaine, that God by power absolute, can pardon sinne without all satisfaction?
A64002For doth not Arminius confesse that God can annihilate the holiest creature that is?
A64002For example, a Minister comes to comfort a man, that thinkes himselfe to be an absolute Reprobate; and how doth he set about it?
A64002For first, was it God indeed that executed this judgement upon Adonibezek?
A64002For had he determined this, who could have resisted him?
A64002For he can hinder it; what followeth then?
A64002For he hath confessed, that God of his meer pleasure, makes all Infants guilty of eternall death; now where appears the greater rigour?
A64002For he is a debtor to none but to himselfe; and how to himselfe?
A64002For how could his justice be wronged in this?
A64002For how doth it appeare that Faustus is the author of any such pretence?
A64002For if it be the gift of God, is not somewhat else required to the working of faith in us over and above all these enforcements?
A64002For if they used these words Necessity,& compulsion; promiscuously; doth it not evidently follow that they distinguished them not?
A64002For is he not the first cause and the first Agent?
A64002For is it not manifest he did?
A64002For is it not of God''s mere mercy that he promiseth, Not to famish the soule of the rightous?
A64002For is not reprobation as touching the act of God reprobating, the very act also of Gods will?
A64002For is that all waies the faith or opinion of the Tragedian, whatsoever he puts into the mouthes of this or that Actor?
A64002For of what justice doe we treat in this argument?
A64002For the Pope never bindes his hands by any Grant he makes; and why should God bind his hands by any decree he makes?
A64002For to what purpose was the Son of God made man, and being man made a sacrifice for sinne?
A64002For try if you please, and you shall find that none of them can possibly serve the turne; What then is this priority of nature so called?
A64002For was it not the will of God that Pharaoh should not let Israel goe for a while?
A64002For were he able to produce any one of our Divines that affirmeth this, why doth he not?
A64002For what Arminian hath dared in plain tearmes to professe, that Gods decrees are of a revocable nature?
A64002For what Authour hath he produced to justifie this that any of our Divines maintaines that God necessitates the will of man to sin?
A64002For what is the ground of the former, but this, that God had absolutely decreed to give faith unto some?
A64002For what need is there of influence divine to make us to will if of our selves we will already?
A64002For what thinks he?
A64002For what?
A64002For what?
A64002For what?
A64002For when he acknowledgeth that no sin can be committed by man without God''s concourse; will he say that God by his concourse helps a man to sinne?
A64002For when the Lord said unto him, doest thou well to be angry for the Gourd?
A64002For when were they innocent in his meaning?
A64002For where hath he given us any reason to prove that any decrees of God are of any resistable condition?
A64002For who doubts but that the will to believe, is to believe?
A64002For who hath resisted his will?
A64002For who hath resisted his will?
A64002For who hath resisted his will?
A64002For who so bold as blind Bayard?
A64002For who would not keep his shinns whole the best he can?
A64002For why should we causlesly expose the truth of God to be the worse thought of, and provoke men to stumble at it by unnecessary harshnesse?
A64002From the necessity of sinning?
A64002Further consider; Doth not God in this manner concurre to the most sinfull act that is commited in the world?
A64002God represents as it were a conflict within him, between his mercy and justice; and his mercy hath the glory of the day; But wherein?
A64002Gods intentions are his decrees, now if God did decree they should bring forth fruit de facto, who hath resisted his will?
A64002Gods severity towards the Jewes, did it any whit qualify Gods bountifulnesse towards the Gentiles?

A64002Hath not the Potter power over the clay of the same lump, to make one vessell unto honour, another unto dishonour?
A64002Hath not the Potter power over the clay of the same lumpe to make one vessell to honour and another to dishonour?
A64002Hath not the Potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessell unto honour and another unto dishonour?

A64002He punisheth the disobedient with eternall death; true: but acording unto what Covenant?

A64002He would rather shew himselfe to be as he is, God, and and not Man; And wherein?
A64002Here are provocations enough, and can it be denied, but that God would have Iob''s uprightnesse thus to be tried?

A64002Is there any injustice with God?
A64002Is there no difference between these?
A64002Is this a Christian course?
A64002Is this doctrine of theirs fit to humble them, and not rather to puffe them up with a conceit of their own sufficiency?
A64002It is absolutely decreed that Devills shall be damned; were it not a fruitlesse thing in them by prayers teares and endeavours to seeke to alter it?
A64002It is the blessing of God that makes men fat, and if God hath determined this, and man knows it, will he therefore sit still and starve himselfe?
A64002It is true Reprobates must beare their burthen of discomfort that know themselves to be Reprobates; but who are they?
A64002It is true we thus read, Have we not all one father?
A64002It''s true indeed, the Pelagians did object the Stoicall Fate unto Austin, as if his doctrine favoured of it; and what doth he answer thereunto?
A64002Knowest thou not( say they) that the Philistins are rulers over us?
A64002Lastly say farther, what is the grace required to the very act of willing; Doth God work this also by grace subsequent?
A64002Lastly, doe we say that God damnes any man out of his only will and pleasure?
A64002Lastly, doth not God give a man a power to refuse to believe, to refuse to repent if he will?
A64002Lastly, how often was Arminius himselfe questioned and called upon to give satisfaction for his Heterodoxies, and how often did he decline it?
A64002Lastly, if Christ hath died for all, then hath he merited Salvation for all; and shall any faile of that salvation which Christ hath merited for them?
A64002Lastly, if thou renouncest the Gospell, what reason hast thou to complaine of want of power to embrace it, so farre as not to renounce it?
A64002Let me take liberty to set down what I should think fit to answer unto such a complaint, Now my Answer is this, Who hath revealed this unto thee?
A64002Looke we( saith he) upon the decrees of men, the wisest of men, were they ever known to decree that a thing may be done?
A64002Lord incline mine heart to thy testimonies, and not to covetousnesse; If it were not in God''s power to incline the hearts of men to covetousnesse?
A64002M. Horde?
A64002Marke it well, of any truths: and who are these?
A64002May a man be proud of humility, for that is one of the excellent vertues here specified; why not, of the naturall humility which is in them?
A64002May we not in like māner pray Lord give us grace to bear what thou layest upon us,& then lay upon us what thou wilt?
A64002Might he not as well take liberty to discourse of the Aequinoctiall pasticrust?
A64002Might he not seem to justify them, in walking after the hardnesse of their hearts by this, and harden them therein by this Doctrine of his?
A64002Must we be bound to stand to every interpretation of our Divines, or every particular opinion of theirs, wherein perhaps they were singular?
A64002Must we for every doctrine of ours, examine whether the most part of Christian Churches doe embrace it yea or no?
A64002My God what diddest thou?
A64002Namely, to produce it voluntarily and freely?
A64002Nay are not the Children of God made free by Christ to the performance of actions spirituall?
A64002Nay doth any Arminian at this day believe this, or can he name any Arminian that doth avouch this?
A64002Nay doth he not extend it farther then we doe, even to the Elect, as well as Reprobates?
A64002Nay doth he truly relate what the Servant said?
A64002Nay doth himselfe believe this?
A64002Nay is it possible that any act should exist without God''s operation?
A64002Nay is it possible that man should will ought, or doe ought, and God not concurre with him, to the producing both of the will and the deed?
A64002Nay since the fall of Adam, who ever lived free from sinne, the Son of God only excepted?
A64002Nay was ever any child of God recovered out of it while he lived upon the face of the earth?
A64002Nay, Is there not a secret kind of hypocrisie, as when a man thinks his heart is upright towards God, when indeed it is not?
A64002Nay, what doe we talk of desert in this?
A64002Nay, what doth the Lord long before professe what should be his providence towards the Jewes?
A64002Nor will any sober man judge that such an impotency as this doth make a man excusable?
A64002Not absolutely on any, that is, not according to the meere pleasure of his will; how then?
A64002Not any thing comes to passe, unles God Almighty will have it come to passe; but how?
A64002Not only carnall men cry out sometimes, Where is the God of judgement?
A64002Not possessed with the entertainment of any Truths, but indifferent to the entertainment of them, I say who are these?
A64002Now I demand, what was the cause of this transmigration?
A64002Now I pray consider what is, or can be the condition hereof, but the act of willing?
A64002Now I pray consider, is it not as harsh, that God should decree the death, the agonics, the sorrowes, and tortures of an innocent man?
A64002Now I pray what is the meaning of this, God doth not decree to damne any man but for finall perseverance in sinne?
A64002Now I pray you, is not God the Author of every evill act after this manner, as well as of any good, by their own confession?
A64002Now I pray, what is become of the harshnes of this our Tenent as is pretended?
A64002Now consider where was this cause to be found?
A64002Now consider, doth God concurre modo nos velimus, which is Suarius his devise?
A64002Now consider, is a man at one with himselfe when he destroyes himselfe?
A64002Now dares this Author avouch, that every man of every condition doth believe?
A64002Now doth Mercer oppose this?
A64002Now doth any of our Divines maintaine that God appoints any man to the suffering of hell torments of his mere pleasure, and not for sinne?
A64002Now doth it not herehence follow, that God absolutely decreed to deny faith unto others?
A64002Now doth not this man believe that God deals so with millions of soules?
A64002Now doth this doctrine assure any man that he is no Reprobate, nor of the number of those whom God hath rejected from salvation?
A64002Now hath not he himselfe professed, that all borne in originall sinne, are borne guilty of eternall death?
A64002Now how canst thou make it appeare that this belongs lesse unto thee then to any Martyr that ever was content to lay downe his life for Christ?
A64002Now in this case, how doth the Apostle stop the mouthes of such, but thus; O man, who art thou that disputest with God?
A64002Now is it a sober course hence to inferre, that the act is not free?
A64002Now is the truth manifested hereby in all those particulars?
A64002Now is there any carriage of God taught by us like unto this?
A64002Now judge I pray which of us makes God the Father of cruelties, he or wee?
A64002Now let us consider, Who made those uproares, were they the Contra- Remonstrants, or the Remonstrants only?
A64002Now seeing God brings them no farther, as he doth his elect; with what sobriety can it be said, that God intends their salvation?
A64002Now the foresight hereof is made to precede Gods casting men off for ever: but from what?
A64002Now was it not God that lead him into this temptation, into this provocation?
A64002Now was not this a great sinne?
A64002Now what Legerdeimaine is this?
A64002Now what cause doe these men devise of the futurition of sinne?
A64002Now what is become of this Authours pompous discourse?
A64002Now what is the nature of this corruption, is it invincible unbeliefe or no?
A64002Now what one Divine of ours maintaines that any of Gods children are destinated to eternall fires?
A64002Now what one divine of ours can he shew to have maintain''d this?
A64002Now what one of our Divines can be produce to justifie this?
A64002Now what revelation hast thou of thine election?
A64002Now when God exerciseth his judgments, shall not those things justly be said to come to passe by his will, which are punishments of foregoing sinnes?
A64002Now where, and when, and how hath God revealed this his counsell unto thee, namely, concerning thy rejection from Grace,& Glory?
A64002Now wherein doth this conversion consist?
A64002Now whether tendeth this, but to the ovethrow of religion?
A64002Now who dares say that all are Elect?
A64002Now why are not the School- men censured, as men speaking unreasonably and against common sense?
A64002Now will it herehence follow that therefore they have power to believe?
A64002Now will it not as well follow, what need I therefore take thought of holinesse, of obedience?
A64002Now, dare any of them deny faith and repentance to be the gift of God?
A64002O Ierusalem wash thine heart from wickednes, that thou maist be saved, how long shall thy wicked thoughts remaine within thee?
A64002O Jerusalem Jervsalem, how oft would I have gathered thee, as a Hen gathereth her chicken under her wings?
A64002O Man, who art thou that repliest against God, shall the thing formed, say to him that formed it, why hast thou made mee thus?
A64002O man who art thou that disputest with God?
A64002O man who art thou, which disputest with God?
A64002O man( saith Paul) who art thou that disputest with God, shall the thing formed, say to him that formed it, why hast thou made me thus?
A64002Of his own will he hath begotten us by the word of truth; what I pray is here meant by the word of truth?
A64002Of his will as it signifies his commandement?
A64002One is provoked by prosperity to corrupt his waies, another by adversity is provoked to break forth into impatience and blasphemy?
A64002Or Is it exciting grace, that is not given absolutely?
A64002Or cause stately and proud Jezabells body to be eaten of doggs?
A64002Or conditionally, modo vellimus, provided that we will it, God the first agent subordinate to the will of the creature?
A64002Or dates he say that by our doctrin these insorcements are nothing hearty& serious to them?
A64002Or doth any of us deny it to be possible by grace?
A64002Or doth he hinder it by exciting us to the contrary?
A64002Or doth he meane they were innocent when God entertaind this resolution?
A64002Or doth he thinke himselfe recovered out of it, or is it in his power to avoid it?
A64002Or doth his love passe knowledge, when we see daily greater love then this in men and other creatures?
A64002Or doth it lesse become him to be the author of affliction then of prosperity?
A64002Or hath not man power to slaughter any but for meat?
A64002Or hath this man or any of his spirit deserved any credit to be trusted this way?
A64002Or if it were so, must not the scandall in this case, be equall on both sides?
A64002Or if white be good, is black bad?
A64002Or indeed the only cruelty; there being no cruelty in the other at all?
A64002Or is he the Authour of sinne who is the efficient cause of the act of sinne?
A64002Or is it his meaning that it is avoidable by nature?
A64002Or is it the doing of somewhat, whereupon occasion is taken to sinne, to blaspheme?
A64002Or murther?
A64002Or shall the saw extoll it selfe against him that moveth it?
A64002Or shall wee hereupon say, they doe not sinne freely?
A64002Or the Leopard his spotts?
A64002Or the elect of God more in any age?
A64002Or was it the doctrine of reprobation, as not proceeding upon the foresight of sinne, but of the meer pleasure of God?
A64002Or was there any uproare made thereupon,''till Arminius his innovating?
A64002Or was this known to Aristotle by all the light of nature whereunto he attained?
A64002Or was this suffering of his for any sinne of his own?
A64002Or what Papists doth he mean, if neither Jesuits nor Dominicans, nor any such as concurre with either of them?
A64002Or what reason have they to weep and mourne when they have sinned, seeing they have not sinned truly, because they sinned necessarily?
A64002Or will he answer that he was the first that said so?
A64002Or will he have faith to come to passe necessarily, but not absolutely and antecedently?
A64002Predestination is the preparation of grace, Grace the gift it selfe which was prepared; not the bestowing of it: How can it be?
A64002Quae sunt stellae?
A64002Quantamlibet praebuerit patientiam, nisi Deus dederit, quis agit paenitentiam?
A64002Quare de vulvâ aduxisti me?
A64002Quare non in vulvâ mortuus sum?
A64002Quid ad te de occultâ Dei praedestinatione?
A64002Quid autem futurum est Deo, qui omnia super graditur tempora?
A64002Quid egisti Deus meus?
A64002Quid est praescientia nisi scientia futurorum?
A64002Quid est praescientia nisi scientia futurorum?
A64002Quid mirum ergo si talis voluntas sit Diaboli maneipium?
A64002Quis eas ordinavit?
A64002Quis enim diceret ei quid fecisti, si damnaret justum?
A64002Quis porro tam impie desipiat ut dicat, Deum malas hominum voluntates quas voluerit, quando voluerit, ubi voluerit, in bonum non posse convertere?
A64002Quis sapiens& intelligit?
A64002Quomodo autem is, qui non agit, eo ipso quod non agit, aliquid extra se causet, vel alteri necessitatem agendi offerat?
A64002Quomodo dixerit Dominus huic homini maledicere David, quis sapiens& intelliget?
A64002Quomodo enim dici potest permitti illud, quod non fit?
A64002Quos omnes?
A64002Saint Paul had a most gratious will, but he found in himselfe no power to doe that he would, but what is the issue of this complaint?
A64002Secondly, In putting the case of some cursing their birth day, but how?
A64002Secondly, Wherein consists this harshnesse?
A64002Secondly, Who seeth not that this argument tends to the utter destruction of all distinct intentions of end, and means in God?
A64002Shall not God call upon us to pay our debts, because we are become bankrupts?
A64002Shall not God have as much power over the masse of mankind, as the Potter hath over the clay?
A64002Shall not the judge of all the earth doe right?
A64002Shall one man sinne, and wilt thou be angry with all the congregation?
A64002Shall right reason suggest the destroying of this for pain''s sake?
A64002Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, why hast thou made me thus?
A64002Shall the thing formed say to it that formed it why hast thou made me thus?
A64002Shall the thing formed say to it that formed it, why hast thou made me thus?
A64002Shall we continue in sinne that grace may abound?
A64002Shall we contradict plain places, because we can not comprehend the obscure?
A64002Shall we say that voluntatis omnipotentis effectus impeditur a voluntate creaturae, as Austin expresseth the absurdity hereof?
A64002Shall we taxe God for crueltie in keeping mens bodies and soules alive for ever in hell fire to torment them everlastingly without end?
A64002Shall we therefore renounce that doctrine?
A64002Sic usus est Iudaeis crucifigentibus Christum,& quanta inde bona praestitit populis credituris?
A64002Since their originall sinne( you say) they are justly damnable; But I pray consider, how came they to be thus justly damnable?
A64002Sinne, he saith, is laesio Divinae majestatis, the wronging of the Divine majesty; but in what sense I pray?
A64002So Barwardine maintaines that God necessitates the will of the creatue; but how?
A64002So I demand whether it be invincible hardnesse of heart or no?
A64002So that upon suspicion that God doth will a thing, that thing shall certainly and infallibly come to passe; but how?
A64002So then if I conceive my selfe to be a reprobate from grace, will you comfort me by saying, that I am no absolute reprobate from grace?
A64002Soe then the Gospell giveth life by the spirit which accompanyeth the Ministry thereof; but to whom?
A64002Such indeed are Beza''s words upon that of the Apostle, Who hath given first unto God?
A64002Surely only thus: O man who art thou that disputest with God?
A64002T is true, some perish only in originall sinne, and that justly: for if they be borne children of wrath, is it strange if they dye children of wrath?
A64002That God will have a great many to be damned, and to have no part in Christ?
A64002That I may save some; and who are they?
A64002That all mankind are involved in the guilt of eternall death?
A64002That foresight of sinnes was the cause why they were not predestinated unto life?
A64002That is opposit to a divine, this to ā humane good?
A64002That piety is trampled downe?
A64002The Angells had no Satan to tempt them; God preserved the elect Angells from sinning, and how?
A64002The Gospell is 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, and the power of God unto Salvation; but to whom?
A64002The labour of Paul more abundantly then of all the rest of the Apostles, was it not a free action in Paul?
A64002The last is that God''s worke it is to harden mans heart, and thereby prepare him to destruction?
A64002The other is, Whether faith and repentance be determined by God to be conferred on man conditionally?
A64002The question is of the suffering of hell paines, whether it be worse then to be annihilated?
A64002The question is whether he concurred to the effecting of it absolutely or conditionally?
A64002The regenerate or unregenerate?
A64002The wall it selfe is white; what therefore shall we not distinguish between the wall, and the white colour of it?
A64002The words are these, Can God speak thus to Reprobates, who by his own decree shall never repent?
A64002Then againe who are they that maintaine, Fatum, destiny?
A64002Then said the Lord how long?
A64002Then to what doth God determine the will in their opinion?
A64002Then what condition can be devised whereupon God workes in us the will?
A64002Then what is it that makes a man the Author of sinne?
A64002Then who are they, who say it may so easily be defended?
A64002There came forth a Spirit and stood before the Lord, and said I will entise him; And the Lord said unto him, wherewith?
A64002They asked him againe if he thought his sinne so foule as it could not be pardoned through the bounty and infinite mercy of God?
A64002They that say Christ sufferd the paines of hell, doe they say Christ was damned?
A64002Thirdly consider, dost thou complaine thou hadst no power to believe, but I pray thee tell me, hast thou any will to believe?
A64002Thirdly whether tends this, that all men have power to believe if they will, to repent if they will?
A64002Thirdly, Did not God intend that they should not be of God, as many as are not regenerated by him?
A64002Thirdly, did he dye only for all then living, or which should afterwards be brought forth into the World, or for all from the beginning of the world?
A64002Thirdly, yet why not so great a difference between God and man, as between God and beasts?
A64002This argument is as old as Pelagius: but what was Austin his answer?
A64002This is very worthy of consideration, what think you of Adams eating of the forbidden fruit?
A64002This power the Lord did execute upon his own sonne: for what was his sinne?
A64002This they must avouch if they contradict us, and that he purposeth to bestow it on all and every one; but how?
A64002Thou wilt never doe it, and why?
A64002Thou wilt say then why doth he yet complaine, for who hath resisted his will?
A64002Thou wilt say then, and is it so, doth God harden whom he will?
A64002Thou wilt say then, why doth he yet complaine, for who hath resisted his will?
A64002Thou wilt say then, why doth he yet complaine?
A64002Though a man that is reprobated of God can not obtaine Grace,( for how should he obtaine it if God will not give it?
A64002Thus the Lord could deale with all if it pleased him; Why doth he not?
A64002Ticonius considered not that faith it selfe is the gift of God, neither was he so carefull to look into the truth of this; and why?
A64002To all, as this Author supposeth?
A64002To appoint to hell, what is it but to appoint to the sufferings of the torments of hell?
A64002To believe that Christ died for them, when it is no such matter?
A64002To conclude, what think you of the gift of faith, hath Christ merited it for us or no?
A64002To damne men for their sinnes neverbroken offby repentance?
A64002To either side, or only to that side, on whose side this Author conceives the truth to stand?
A64002To fly to the face of God?
A64002To nothing more then to the subversion of piety and pollicy, religion& lawes, society and government?
A64002To what abominable courses do the wilde witts and profane hearts of these men expose them?
A64002To what end are heaven and hell propounded?
A64002To whom is it made manifest?
A64002To whom then?
A64002Turne yee, turne yee, O yee house of Israell why will ye dye?
A64002Uncertaine whether I shall get any good, or prevent any mischiefe hereby?
A64002Upon what may we be assured to stand firme in time of such temptation?
A64002Utrumne Fides in consilio& decreto Dei de electione ad salutem, eam ipsam electionem ordine praecedat an verò consequatur?
A64002VVHo are these Authors of this Doctrine, who here are said to have been backward to bring it to the standard?
A64002Verum est certum esse numerum salvandorum; hoc ex me, sed quid ad me?
A64002Voluntati ejus quis resistit?
A64002Was any more innocent then the Son of God?
A64002Was ever any of our Divines known to deny this?
A64002Was he not by the Law of God to be stoned to death?
A64002Was he not the spotlesse lamb of God?
A64002Was it Salvation?
A64002Was it because they would not?
A64002Was it ever heard amongst us, that men should be damned for reading, hearing, praying, and mourning for their sinnes?
A64002Was it ever heard that permission of sinne was required to make way for God''s justice remunerative?
A64002Was it ever known, that by meer differing in Opinion from other Churches, Christian men were said to scandalize them?
A64002Was it intended to be their portion, whether they believed in Christ or no?
A64002Was it not called the Lords indignation?
A64002Was it not his will that the ten tribes should revolt from Rehoboam, when he protested of that businesse, that it was from him?
A64002Was it the doctrine of predestination as proceeding of the meer pleasure of God, and not upon foresight of mans faith and works?
A64002Was it this point alone the sifting whereof, as this Author phraseth it, Beza declined?
A64002Was not so faire a prey, a sore temptation to a covetous person?
A64002Was not the denyall of Consubstantiation another?
A64002Was not the soule of man immortall assoone as it was created?
A64002Was not this speech of the Apostles a free action?
A64002Was there ever heard a more unreasonable course then this?
A64002Was there ever the like crimination made against any without naming them that say so, and the place where, and their own words?
A64002Was this a wavering hope, grounded upon an uncertain apprehension?
A64002Was this known to the Gentiles by the light of nature?
A64002Was this prey that he ceazed on, the only spoyle of that great Citty?
A64002We do not read he did; was it not the condition of many others as well as himselfe?
A64002We say God moves the will to the doing of it, as it becomes the first cause to move the second, but how?
A64002We say it is lawfull for man to doe all this that is spoken of, upon our fellow creatures, and shall not God have as much power over us?
A64002We see heathens doe avoid: it Or stealth?
A64002Well he usurpes them notwithstanding, but is he able to maintaine them against the answer of the tempted, can he make a good reply?
A64002Were all damned will this Authour say, that perished in the flood?
A64002Were it not a thousand times better for them not to be borne?
A64002Were not the Angells innocent before their first sin?
A64002Were the permission of sinnes concurring to the crucifying of Christ Jesus to no end?
A64002Were there no Babylonish garments but that one, no more silver or wedges of gold, but that Achan lighted on?
A64002Were we not all such?
A64002What Divine amongst Papists or Protestants is he, that maintains, that Adams sinne, was the sinne of our nature by imputation?
A64002What Divine of ours was ever knowne to affirme that God damneth any one that dyeth in repentance?
A64002What Father or Mother would be content to execute a Child of theirs upon the Gallowes, when by some capitall crime he hath deserved it?

A64002What I pray is now become of his reason, compared with the light of Scripture?
A64002What a prodigious assertion were either of these?
A64002What a shamelesse habit hath he gotten to himselfe to deliver untruths?
A64002What a world of sins should we be to answer for, personall sins, parents, progenitours sins, to a thousand past generations?
A64002What can such promises be but meere delusions of miserable men?
A64002What colour of imposture and dissimulation, doth appeare in all this?
A64002What could I have done more for my vineyard?
A64002What doth Carryer write of many well known to him in this our Church of England, of the same mind with himselfe, some Papists, some Lutherans?
A64002What doth this argue?
A64002What doth this imply?
A64002What doth this signify more, than that more could not be done?
A64002What doth this[ quando magis] imply?
A64002What failes of the truth of this sentence if it be delivered thus?
A64002What greater distemper of the soule than back- sliding or Rebellion?
A64002What hast thou that thou hast not received?
A64002What if afterwards they should curse the day of their birth, and wish they had been made Toads or Snakes?
A64002What if the condition of other creatures, be better then the condition of reprobates?

A64002What is the Lords answere?
A64002What is the preserment of the Jew above the Gentile?
A64002What is this, but according to his language, the coveting of corners?
A64002What lets them it grāt, that of one man, which they must grant of all men?
A64002What more contradictions to this Authors discourse of the uncomfortable condition of predestination, according to our way; yet who was this Authour?
