| A59791 | 1st, I desire to know, whether he thinks the Doctrine of the Trinity to be defensible or not? |
| A59791 | 3dly, How are Atheists concerned in the Disputes of the Trinity? |
| A59791 | And is it not better that such Pamphlets should be in an hundred hands with an Answer, than in five hands without one? |
| A59791 | And now can any Man tell, what Opinion this Melancholy Stander- by has of the Doctrines of the Trinity, and Incarnation? |
| A59791 | And what is the hurt of this? |
| A59791 | And when the Faith is publickly opposed and scorned in Printed Libels, ought it not to be as publickly defended? |
| A59791 | And whether Christ and his Apostles intended to teach any more? |
| A59791 | But I would desire this Author to tell me, whether we must believe Fundamentals with, or without Reason? |
| A59791 | But did his Socinian Friends, who were such busie Factors for the Cause, tell him so? |
| A59791 | But if these Dissentions be so great a blemish to the Reformation, whose Fault is it? |
| A59791 | But is there no danger that the Church may be flung out of possession, and lose the Faith, if she do n''t defend it? |
| A59791 | But it will be said, What shall we do? |
| A59791 | But let them be never so good Men, as some of the Heathen Philosophers were, must we therefore tamely suffer them to pervert the Faith? |
| A59791 | But pray, why should we not write against the Socinians? |
| A59791 | But what is that? |
| A59791 | But when this fit time is come( for I know not what he means by a fit place) what shall we do then? |
| A59791 | But why is it so unseasonable in this Juncture? |
| A59791 | Can we certainly learn from Scripture, Whether Christ be a God Incarnate, or a mere Man? |
| A59791 | Did they print them, that no body might read them? |
| A59791 | Do we then deny, that there are Three Persons and One God? |
| A59791 | Does he think that they are no Christians, and ought not to be concerned for common Christianity? |
| A59791 | For must we believe the Words or the Sense of Scripture? |
| A59791 | However, were it so; is there no regard to be had to Hereticks themselves? |
| A59791 | I would ask any man who talks at this rate about a Latitude of Faith, Whether there be any more than One True Christian Faith? |
| A59791 | If ever it will be so, why is it not so now? |
| A59791 | If it be not defensible, why does he believe it? |
| A59791 | If this never will be Christian and Wholesome, what else is to be done to Hereticks in fit time and place, unless he intends to Physick''em? |
| A59791 | If we can not, Why should we believe either? |
| A59791 | Is not every Divine Person who is God, a Mind, and an Eternal Mind? |
| A59791 | Is not the Eternal Spirit, which searcheth the deep things of God, as the Spirit of a Man knoweth the things of a Man, a Mind? |
| A59791 | Is not the substantial Word and Wisdom of God a Mind? |
| A59791 | Is not this their proper Work and Business? |
| A59791 | Is this an Age to resolve our Faith into Church Authority? |
| A59791 | Must we be afraid of defending the Faith of the Trinity, lest Atheists should mock at it, who already mock at the Being of a God? |
| A59791 | Must we renounce Christianity, to keep out Popery? |
| A59791 | Must we then turn all Socinians, to preserve the Reformation? |
| A59791 | No, The Adversaries to the received Doctrine( Why not to the true Faith?) |
| A59791 | No, our business is to prove it, and explain and vindicate it? |
| A59791 | Or does he think, that the Defences made by Trinitarians expose the Faith more than the Objections of Socinians? |
| A59791 | Or has Christ and his Apostles left it at liberty to believe what we like, and to let the rest alone? |
| A59791 | Or how are we concerned to avoid scandalizing Atheists, who believe that there is no God at all? |
| A59791 | Or whether they did not intend, That all Christians should be obliged to believe this One Faith? |
| A59791 | Or would he himself believe such absurd Doctrines as they represent the Trinity in Unity to be, merely upon Church Authority? |
| A59791 | Ought not they to satisfie themselves, that there is no force in the Objections, which are made against the Faith? |
| A59791 | Pray what hurt have they done? |
| A59791 | Renounce the Faith of the Trinity, for the sake of Peace? |
| A59791 | Theirs who dissent from the Truth, or theirs who defend it? |
| A59791 | To believe that the Eternal Word was made Flesh; or that Christ was no more than a Man, who had no being before he was born of the Virgin Mary? |
| A59791 | Was there ever such a Reason thought of as this? |

| A59791 | What purer Reformers were these? |
| A59791 | What shall Christians do then, when Atheists, Infidels, and Hereticks, strike at the very Foundations of their Faith? |
| A59791 | What shall we have left of Christianity, if we must either cast away, or not defend every thing, which Atheists will mock at? |
| A59791 | What? |
| A59791 | When Hereticks dispute against the Faith, must we be afraid of disputing for it, for fear of making a Controversie of Fundamentals? |
| A59791 | Whether we must take Fundamentals for granted, and receive them with an implicite Faith, or know for what Reason we believe them? |
| A59791 | Why does he let St. Austin escape, from whom the Master of the Sentences borrowed most of his Distinctions and Subtilties? |
| A59791 | Why does he not accuse the Ancient Fathers and Councils, from whom the Schoolmen learnt these Terms? |
| A59791 | Will he then give us leave to write and dispute against such Hereticks? |
| A59791 | Will it ever be most Christian and most Wholesome, to dispute for the Faith against Heresie? |
| A59791 | Will the World think that we are all of a mind, because there is disputing only on one side? |
| A59791 | With respect to the Doctrine of the Trinity and Incarnation? |
| A59791 | how long must we be silent? |
| A41434 | And is there such a difference of men between themselves, comparing one with another? |
| A41434 | And to what can the regeneration or new birth of man, be better resembled or compared, then to the creation? |
| A41434 | Born in a Stable? |
| A41434 | Born in a Stable? |
| A41434 | Born in a Stable? |
| A41434 | But here if, I shall further demand what is an infinite? |
| A41434 | But how should the whole Deity be in every Person? |
| A41434 | But if this Deity be wholly imparted, yet then how should it still remain whole and entire? |
| A41434 | But supposing the three Persons in one Deity, why should the Word be made flesh, the Father and the Spirit excluded? |
| A41434 | Canst thou conceive how all the contrary Elements should be combined in one compound subject? |
| A41434 | Do we not here see how all the three Persons did concur as in one nature, so in the same outward act of Creation? |
| A41434 | Do ye think that what the Church shall determin in this and other mysteries, that it proceeds from the wit and invention of man? |
| A41434 | E: G: If I should aske, whether every thing should be eternall, or that there should be but only one eternall ● …? |
| A41434 | Here we have an Understanding and a Word, but can this Understanding subsist without a Will? |
| A41434 | How long, how long, O Lord, wilt thou suffer thy Church to be thus afflicted? |
| A41434 | If then man be like unto God, why may not he reflect upon God? |
| A41434 | Or if you take the Elixir of bodies, have not the Chymists found out that all bodies consist of Sal, Sulphur, Mercury? |
| A41434 | Quae utilitas in sanguine nostro dum descendimus in aeternam corruptionem? |
| A41434 | Secondly, we confess Gods omnipotency; but how shall this appear, unless there should be some infinite Creature? |
| A41434 | See you not God in all his works, and yet the works still continuing and subsisting in their own kinde? |
| A41434 | That God should put man to a tryall, we must not call him to an account, how shall the Vessell say to the Potter, Why mad''st thou me thus? |
| A41434 | The best of them the high Priests, the Scribes, and the Levites sent to John Baptist to know, whether he were that expected Messias or not? |
| A41434 | Then what is the wit and understanding of man, but meer foolishness, in respect of Gods wisdome? |
| A41434 | Think you that God would not reserve some mystery for his Son to reveal, more then ever was known to the Prophets? |
| A41434 | Thus how many things are we bound to believe, whereof we can not understand the manner and means? |
| A41434 | Thus in all naturall works God useth meanes, and why not in supernaturals? |
| A41434 | Usquequo Domine irasceris? |
| A41434 | Usquequo Domine? |
| A41434 | Usquequo? |
| A41434 | We are not to demand, why sooner or later he took not our flesh? |
| A41434 | What charity did we shew to our Tenants, in accepting such small Fines? |
| A41434 | When the Priests and Levits sent unto him, to know whether he were the Messias? |
| A41434 | Why should God reveal himself to the later Prophets, more then he did to Moses? |
| A41434 | Why should God speak of himself after the manner and fashion of men? |
| A41434 | accendetur velut ignis furor tuus? |
| A41434 | and if such be the effects of our understanding and our love, then what may we conceive of the understanding and love of God? |
| A41434 | and these necessarily, and inseparably knit and united together? |
| A41434 | and what greater then the Trinity, which neither men nor Angels can comprehend, and both men and Angels must adore? |
| A41434 | do not all qualities admit of three degrees of Comparison? |
| A41434 | do you ascribe no more to the cloven tongues, that fell upon the Apostles, whereby they were replenished with Gods Spirit? |
| A41434 | if we have it not of our own, where shall we borrow it? |
| A41434 | is it not true in all Homogeneall bodies? |
| A41434 | is not the most perfect number the number of Three? |
| A41434 | is there not an Eye- bright which serves in stead of Spectacles to clear the sight? |
| A41434 | or by his carnall uncleanness, giving way to his appetite, and gluttony, he should fall down to the sensuality of Beasts? |
| A41434 | or whether man subsisting of flesh, and spirit, which of these should be predominant? |

| A41434 | shall the body and the flesh be excluded? |
| A41434 | then why may not other fruits and plants, refresh the understanding, and by generating good spirits inlighten it and quicken the apprehension? |
| A41434 | what is the length of mans age, but less then a minute, in respect of Gods eternity? |
| A41434 | what is the wealth of man, but beggery, in respect of Gods treasures? |
| A41434 | where is the injury, when the party offended shall satisfie? |
| A41434 | whether they were dumbe, or spake a language? |
| A41434 | who will be bound for us, or become our surety? |
| A62619 | Again; What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before? |
| A62619 | And again, Is there any God besides me? |
| A62619 | And can it then be reasonable to suppose such a thing? |
| A62619 | And can they discern no Difficulty, no Absurdity in this? |
| A62619 | And is it not every whit as possible for God, if he so please, to unite himself to human Nature, as it is for the Soul to be united to the Body? |
| A62619 | And that the Apostle describes Idolatry to be, the giving service, or worship, to things which by Nature are no Gods? |
| A62619 | And what are we, that the eternal and only begotten Son of God should condescend to do all this for us? |
| A62619 | And what is this less in effect than to say, That there are three Gods? |
| A62619 | And why may not the Chaos signify that state of darkness and ignorance in which the World was before the giving of the Law by Moses? |
| A62619 | And will they in good earnest contest this matter with us, that the giving Divine Worship to a mere Creature is not Idolatry? |
| A62619 | Are there no Mysteries in Religion? |
| A62619 | Are we not all the Sons of Adam, who was the Son of God? |
| A62619 | But in the mean time where is ingenuity and love of Truth? |
| A62619 | But to what purpose? |
| A62619 | But why then did they not do it? |
| A62619 | Did he not appear the first time without Sin? |
| A62619 | Do they consider how often God hath declar''d that he will not give his glory to another? |
| A62619 | For had Sin been so easily forgiven, who would have been sensible of the great evil of it, or afraid to offend for the future? |
| A62619 | For how can this possibly agree with that which follows and is given as the reason why Christ is said to be the first- born of every Creature? |
| A62619 | For what are We? |
| A62619 | For why should we take upon us to set limits to infinite Wisdom, and pretend to know the utmost extent of it? |
| A62619 | His vouchsafing to assume our Nature, and to reside and converse so long with us? |
| A62619 | How is that? |
| A62619 | Is it now possible for any man to read this Passage and yet not to be convinced that the Disciples understood our Saviour to speak literally? |
| A62619 | Is there not One God, and are we not all his Offspring? |
| A62619 | Men may eternally wrangle about any thing, but what a frivolous contention, what a trifling in serious matters, what barretrie in Divinity is this? |
| A62619 | Mother of our Lord, how should our Souls, upon that blessed occasion, magnify the Lord, and our Spirits rejoyce in God our Saviour? |
| A62619 | Now where doth the force of this Argument lye, if not in this? |
| A62619 | That He should submit to so poor and low a Condition, to such dreadful and disgraceful Sufferings for our sakes? |
| A62619 | That the High and Glorious Majesty of Heaven should stoop down to the Earth, and be contented to be clothed with Misery and Mortality? |
| A62619 | The Word was made flesh: What a step is here made in order to the reconciling of Men to God? |
| A62619 | What an everlasting Fountain of the most invaluable Blessings and Benefits to Mankind is the Incarnation of the Son of God? |
| A62619 | What can be the meaning of this Caution? |
| A62619 | What is the mystery of this? |
| A62619 | What shall perish, and wax old, and be changed? |
| A62619 | What shall we render to thee for such mighty love, for such inestimable benefits as thou hast purchas''d for us and art ready to confer upon us? |
| A62619 | What? |
| A62619 | What? |
| A62619 | Who can believe this? |
| A62619 | Why do we then deal treacherously every man against his brother? |
| A62619 | Why? |
| A62619 | Would not this be in effect to say, that God hath written a great Book to puzzle and confound, but not to instruct and teach Mankind? |
| A62619 | Yes, say they, why not? |
| A62619 | and what is the Connection of it with the foregoing Discourse? |
| A62619 | but may ask further, Is God divided? |
| A62619 | hath not One God created us? |
| A62619 | how great is thy Goodness? |
| A62619 | how infinite are thy tender Mercies and Compassions to Mankind? |
| A62619 | no Absurdity in a God as it were but of yesterday? |
| A62619 | no absurdity in bringing Idolatry by a back- door into the Christian Religion, one main Design whereof was to banish Idolatry out of the World? |
| A62619 | nothing that feels like inconsistency and Contradiction? |
| A62619 | nothing that is contrary to Reason and good sense? |
| A28523 | * Therefore, if it be asked, what kind of Matter it was, whereinto Gods Word and Heart hath given in it selfe, and made it selfe a Body? |
| A28523 | 2. c He asked them, and said, Whom say ye then that I am? |
| A28523 | 2. could not God then thus introduce Man into Heaven with the New Birth? |
| A28523 | 5. Who is here that can unshut this? |
| A28523 | Also, is not the Kingdom of Heaven within us? |
| A28523 | And are not the Father the Word and Spirit which bear record in Heaven One? |
| A28523 | And do not the Spirit the Water and the Bloud which bear record on the Earth agree in One? |
| A28523 | And doth it not consist in Peace Righteousness, and Joy in the Holy Ghost? |
| A28523 | And had it not been so, though the Angels world and ours had never been created? |
| A28523 | And if we walk in the Light as he is in the Light, doth not the Bloud of Jesus Christ clense us from All Sinnes? |
| A28523 | And is not his Flesh meat indeed and his Bloud drink indeed? |
| A28523 | And since God worketh in us both to wil and to do, why refuse we to will and to do? |
| A28523 | And were not all the Things without them and within them, in Being, though they had not been spoken of in the Scriptures? |
| A28523 | And were not the Divine holy Spiritual, and all other Natural things in Being, without the Created inward and outward world as well as in them? |
| A28523 | Art thou a ● Champion; why dost thou not strive or fight against the Evil? |
| A28523 | Art thou an Enemy? |
| A28523 | Art thou the Maker of thy own selfe? |
| A28523 | As First, concerning the Creation; what Essence, substance, and property, Man is, whether he be Eternal or not Eternal? |
| A28523 | Bring forth the New Jerusalem; It is Day: why should we sleep in the Day? |
| A28523 | But I would have the Scorner, and total Earthly Man, asked; whether the Heaven be blinde, as also Hell, and God himself? |
| A28523 | But can a Man make of himselfe what he will? |
| A28523 | But now Reason asketh: How is then the similitude? |
| A28523 | But that Crown hideth it selfe again; for in that place, God becometh Man: How then can there be but Great Joy? |
| A28523 | But the fierce wrathful Essence was too strong, so that it overcame the love Essence; what can God doe to that? |
| A28523 | But what doth this Evil world now? |
| A28523 | But who shall express his Glory, which will be his wages? |
| A28523 | Can he there see the wicked Malice before hand: why seeth he not also his wages and recompence beforehand? |
| A28523 | Doest thou ask; Why? |
| A28523 | Dost thou know this thou Earthly Man? |
| A28523 | Doth not Faith come by inward Hearing, and that Hearing by the same word of God? |
| A28523 | For, † where our willing and Heart is, there is also our Treasure: Is our willing in Gods willing? |
| A28523 | Hath not God shed abroad his Love in our Hearts? |
| A28523 | He himself hath not the Mystery, and how then will he give or* dispence it to others? |
| A28523 | Here indeed sticketh the Matter, deare defiled piece of Wood, smell into thy bolome, what is it thou stinkest of? |
| A28523 | How many Thousand Endless Mysteries, are Treasured up in the hidden wisdom of God in Christ, and in him in us? |
| A28523 | How sweet is the water of the Eternal Life our of Gods Majesty? |
| A28523 | How then would he have suffered Death; have entred into Death, and destroyed it? |
| A28523 | How very amiable and blessed is but the glimps of the divine substantiality? |
| A28523 | If then God hath by the Dying of his Sonne, redeemed us, and paid a ransom for us, wherefore then must we also dye and perish or be consumed? |
| A28523 | If we say we have no sin, we deceive our Selves; May they be taken as meant speaking of others, and not himself included? |
| A28523 | Is it not that* Closed or shut book of him that sitteth upon the Throne or seat in the Revelation of Jesus Christ? |
| A28523 | Is not God Omnipotent enough to do what he will? |
| A28523 | Is not God himself Light? |
| A28523 | It continually saith: where is thy God? |
| A28523 | Now behold further: what would remain of the Fire if I should take away the Light and Lustre from the Fire? |
| A28523 | Now saith Reason: Had the Devil so great Might? |
| A28523 | Now saith Reason: How is it come to pass in this becoming Man or Incarnation? |
| A28523 | Now saith Reason; whence hath this its originall? |
| A28523 | Now, what can the Light do, if the fire lay hold of somewhat and devoureth it? |
| A28523 | Now, when Adam and Eve stood thus in terrour, before the Anger of God,* God, cattel Adam, and said; Adam where art thou? |
| A28523 | O thou Noble, Man; if thou knewest thy selfe, who thou art, how woulst thou rejoyce? |
| A28523 | OUtward Reason saith: How may a Man in this world see into God, viz: into another world; and say what God is? |
| A28523 | Or if he would needs redeem us in such a way; wherefore seeing Christ hath redeemed us, must we, then, also dye? |
| A28523 | Or what should it desire other then what it was in its own substance? |
| A28523 | Or whether there be also any seeing in the divine World? |
| A28523 | Or, what pleasure hath God in thy knowing, when as thou stil continuest wicked? |
| A28523 | Outward Reason saith, how may that come to pass? |
| A28523 | Seeing then it hath a Life, and the Power and understanding of the Light, why doth it then run into the Fire? |
| A28523 | Shall I go out of the Light into Darkness? |
| A28523 | Shall we then sinne? |
| A28523 | Should now the Holy spirit be blind, when he dwelleth in Man? |
| A28523 | Should we then in Christ, be blind, as to God? |
| A28523 | Sparrow, John, 1615- 1665? |
| A28523 | The Devil knoweth it also well, what doth that avail him? |
| A28523 | The Light and Power drew not the Devil into the Fire, but the fierce wrath of Nature; Why did the Spirit assent to be willing? |
| A28523 | WHen Christ asked his Disciples,* Whom do the people say that the Sonne of man is? |
| A28523 | We generate not as to this World; how will we then see the fruit with the Eyes of this world? |
| A28523 | Were we not, in the beginning, made out of Gods Substantiality? |
| A28523 | What is it now that is strange to or in us, that we can not see God? |
| A28523 | What is it then: or who speaketh out of the Blasphemous Mouth? |
| A28523 | What need we flatter our selves; are we righteous? |
| A28523 | What pleasure hath God in Death and dying? |
| A28523 | What pleasure hath God in Death? |
| A28523 | Where are thou, Adam? |
| A28523 | Whether God made man out of Earth? |
| A28523 | Why did God suffer the Tree to grow, by which Adam was Tempted? |
| A28523 | Why do we not eat and drink thereof? |
| A28523 | Why do you Teach, when you* are not sent from God? |
| A28523 | Why dost thou make thy selfe Evil? |
| A28523 | Why dost thou not say to the Light: why Sufferest thou the Fire to be? |
| A28523 | Why doth God let it go so, that here is nothing but vain toylsome weariness, as also vexation and oppression, one plaguing and afflicting another? |
| A28523 | and then must not all needs be in us? |
| A28523 | but by the Holy Spirit? |
| A28523 | but if thou strivest or fightest against the Good, thou are an Enemy of God: dost thou suppose that God will set an Angels Crown upon the Devil? |
| A28523 | dost thou not see thou are no more in Heaven? |
| A28523 | dost thou suppose he will accept thy Hypocrisie? |
| A28523 | give me a strong Faith in the Merits of thy Sonne Christ: that he hath satisfied for my sinnes: supposest thou, that, that is enough? |
| A28523 | had he not that when he said so, that he might justly exclude himself from having any sinne? |
| A28523 | or when shall it come to pass, that I may see the Countenance of God? |
| A28523 | or who shall speak of the Crown or Garland of Victory which he attaineth? |
| A28523 | or write I this, for my own Boasting? |
| A28523 | should we not through Patience possess our Souls? |
| A28523 | that be farre off: How shall I will to enter againe into that to which I have dyed? |
| A28523 | that he hath not onely suffered his Sonne to dye on the Cross, but that we all must Dye also? |
| A28523 | that our Salvation may become generated? |
| A28523 | that we might be born again out of the Virgin, out of which Christ was born? |
| A28523 | were not the Pure in Heart Blessed? |
| A28523 | were not, the Word, God; though John the Apostle had not said so? |
| A28523 | what then shall we think was become of his Earthly Old Adam of his outward Flesh and Bloud, wherein he was Mortal? |
| A28523 | where is my † Noble Pearl? |
| A28523 | where is the virgins- Child; I see it not yet; how is it with me, that I am so anxious about that which yet I can not see? |
| A28523 | whether also, the Spirit of God seeth, both in the Love- light- world, as also in the fierce wrath in the Anger- world in the Center? |
| A28523 | whether it be strange Matter come from Heaven? |
| A28523 | why should we not also stand therein? |
| A28523 | will not Heavenly Father give the holy Spirit to them that desire it? |
| A28523 | † And he said; Who hath told thee that thou art Naked? |
| A28523 | † What say we then? |
| A28531 | * What now are the Christians so called, better than Turks and Heathens, if they live Turkish''y, and more then Turkishly or Heathenishly? |
| A28531 | Also doe you understand, a New Soul? |
| A28531 | Also if Christ be no Creature, why then hath he conversed in a Creaturely forme; and dyed with woe and paine, as a Creature, on the Crosse? |
| A28531 | Also: WHAT of Vs shall Arise? |
| A28531 | Am I indeed the day Staffe or Rod of Aarow? |
| A28531 | And bear or Generate a Sonne? |
| A28531 | And from Eternity Elected or Predestinated thereto? |
| A28531 | And moreover standing in Gods Wisdome? |
| A28531 | And whither went he into Hell? |
| A28531 | Are not the present, Christians, so called, as also Turkes, Jewes, and Heathens, all alike to one another in Life? |
| A28531 | Beloved, pray tell me, Did God Tempt himself? |
| A28531 | Beloved, what may indeed his Temptation in the Wildernesse have been? |
| A28531 | But he saith, God hardeneth him out of his Predestinate purpose, so that he can not Convert; who now shall be righteous, the Prophet or my Opponent? |
| A28531 | But what doth Gods Love, viz: the Second Principle; to that Man? |
| A28531 | Can the Deity also suffer and dye? |
| A28531 | Can you not perceive what will suddenly follow upon it? |
| A28531 | Canst thou not beleeve? |
| A28531 | Did not the Eternall Wisdome then know it, how it should come to passe? |
| A28531 | Doe you suppose it is enough, that you know, that Christ dyed for Sinne? |
| A28531 | Doest thou say? |
| A28531 | Doth the Anger in the Conscience Say? |
| A28531 | Doth the Divine Virgin Eate Earthly food? |
| A28531 | For his Name goeth over all Mountaines and Hills, HE shooteth forth like a Sprout, and goeth on in Great Wonders, who will hinder it? |
| A28531 | Had she not the Flesh of Joachim, and of Anna her Mother? |
| A28531 | Hath he the Faith, why then doth he despise Christs Children and Members, whose Christianity is earnest and Sincere? |
| A28531 | Have you not the Spirit of True Knowledge from God? |
| A28531 | Hell where is thy Victory? |
| A28531 | His Deity? |
| A28531 | How is the New Birth performed in Vs? |
| A28531 | How then came it? |
| A28531 | How will you stand before God? |
| A28531 | I ask you in earnest, if you be Gods Child then tell me: How or where hath Christ Broken Death? |
| A28531 | If you live but heathenishly? |
| A28531 | Indeed knowledge is not alone the way to blessednesse or Salvation; the Devill knoweth more than we, but what doth that availe him? |
| A28531 | Is he not out of or from us? |
| A28531 | Is his Soul no Creature but God himself? |
| A28531 | John saith:* The Light shineth in the Darknesse, and the Darknesse Comprehended it not; doe you not understand this? |
| A28531 | Let him tell me, How the Holy Spirit is a Principle; or what doth he understand by a Principle? |
| A28531 | MY Dear Opponent; you will needs have a strange Virgin, and you despise my very high knowledg given me of God; was Mary? |
| A28531 | MY Deare Brother, Tell me, if you be borne of God, and enlightned, as you suppose, how is the New Birth performed in US? |
| A28531 | MY Opponent in Scorne saith; Could God Create nothing stedfast? |
| A28531 | Must not the Deare and precious Name of God, at present be the Cover to Mans wickednesse? |
| A28531 | NOw saith Reason, What is THAT Now which Willeth not? |
| A28531 | NOw when the Image was faded or disappeared, what did God with it, did he let it fall quite away and remaine in Death? |
| A28531 | Now if she were only Gods Wisdome; and not Man or humane; why did she not then know all things? |
| A28531 | Now, I would know, whether it be done in my Soul? |
| A28531 | Or What had he to doe with the Humanity? |
| A28531 | Or if that were possibles; Is God become Man for a handfull of Earths sake? |
| A28531 | Or is Christ become at Odds with himself? |
| A28531 | Or the Old, which you have inherited from Father and Mother? |
| A28531 | Seeing God calleth the Lost Sinner, and willeth in Christ to have them, and new Generate them; is that the Fathers Hardening? |
| A28531 | Seeing I know of no Man? |
| A28531 | Shall I contend and dispute against that which is without me? |
| A28531 | She said, How shall that come to passe? |
| A28531 | Should God draw thee? |
| A28531 | Sparrow, John, 1615- 1665? |
| A28531 | THen, saith Reason, what is God then: Or who is God, when it is said: God hardeneth Mans Mind? |
| A28531 | That she should be impregnate or with Child? |
| A28531 | That, when the Angel came to her, and brought the Message? |
| A28531 | The Apostle saith,* It is a precious worthy Word, that JESUS CHRIST, is come into the World, to save all poor Sinners: Who hath now the Right? |
| A28531 | The EARTHLY Body? |
| A28531 | The Spirit in the Scripture hath another kinde of speaking, than the World hath: Know you not how it stands written in the Scripture? |
| A28531 | Then thou sayst; thus the Darknesse is a Cause of the Deity? |
| A28531 | Therefore I say now; Is Gods Spirit in my scorner? |
| A28531 | WHAT in him became Tempted? |
| A28531 | What Man would become a Pot, for a Pots sake? |
| A28531 | What are your conceits profitable? |
| A28531 | What doth the Name of Christ availe you? |
| A28531 | What folly is it to make or set and impose Election upon Man, and take away his Free- Will: hath not the poor Sinner Free- Will; that he CAN Come? |
| A28531 | What is it that ariseth? |
| A28531 | What is it then? |
| A28531 | What manner of Body had she then nourished, with the Earthly food? |
| A28531 | What meane you by the New Creature? |
| A28531 | Whether my Will- Spirit have attained an Open Gate to God with or by Christs Death; that I may say,* Abba, my Dear Father; or No? |
| A28531 | Which now is true? |
| A28531 | Whose Generation or discent is sufficiently to be found in the Bible? |
| A28531 | Why doe we so long contend about knowledge? |
| A28531 | Why doe you Juggle so much with the Holy Spirit? |
| A28531 | Why doest thou blame God? |
| A28531 | Why then did she Suck her Mothers breasts? |
| A28531 | Why then doe you make Glosses or Expositions upon the Scripture? |
| A28531 | Why then doth Christ* call them to himself? |
| A28531 | Why will you long contend with me? |
| A28531 | Why will you* Deny Man Free- Will? |
| A28531 | Why? |
| A28531 | a strange heavenly Virgin? |
| A28531 | and desired the Essence of this World? |
| A28531 | and did Naturally eate Earthly food? |
| A28531 | are you more knowing or skilfull then HE? |
| A28531 | as JESUS her Sonne did? |
| A28531 | as the Church teacheth? |
| A28531 | before I learne to know what is in me? |
| A28531 | but, what Man, can say, he is not SO drawne? |
| A28531 | how terrible it is, that Man Dare so to pervert the Scriptures; Dear Sirs, where will you abide? |
| A28531 | is it Eve? |
| A28531 | is it entering in or exgenerating? |
| A28531 | is it not performed in us in our Souls? |
| A28531 | let them stand unexplained, if you be not called to it of God; Why doe you so long make many † Errours? |
| A28531 | or his Soul? |
| A28531 | or what do you hold concerning the* Resurrection of the Dead, WHAT of us must arise? |
| A28531 | prove that out of Scripture; or wilt thou say, thou canst not beleeve? |
| A28531 | seeing in the Wisdome of God, ALL knowledge lyeth, from Eternity in Eternity? |
| A28531 | shall I first expect the Drawing? |
| A28531 | that Christ is become Man, in that very Virginity? |
| A28531 | that you Exchange Words for Words; and imbitter the Scriptures? |
| A28531 | viz: the Evill Flesh that is infected by the Devill, and full of Sinne and Abomination? |
| A28531 | which is Eternall without ground and Beginning, which dwelleth in the Nothing, also possesseth nothing but only it self? |
| A28531 | why then did God † Curse it for the sake of One Sinne? |
| A28531 | why then doth he despise the Spirit of Christ? |
| A28531 | why then is he a Scorner and Contender? |
| A28531 | will he make the Cleere Bright Deity to be a Principle? |
| A28531 | would my Opponent deny me also to Ask? |
| A28531 | your Cripled Election or Christs Promise? |
| A28531 | † Where is the Christian and Evangelicall Fruit? |
| A28531 | † Wilt thou now say, God hardeneth thy Heart and Will, that thou canst not ask? |
| A66436 | 8.? |
| A66436 | All that he has to say to this, is, Will he deny positively and directly, that the Lord Christ is a God by Representation and Office? |
| A66436 | All the question is, who is the Lord that thus saith of himself, I am Alpha and Omega,& c? |
| A66436 | And besides, do n''t those Socinians that worship our Saviour, affirm that they worship him as God? |
| A66436 | And can any Divine Appointment make that not to be Idolatry, which in its nature is so? |
| A66436 | And do n''t they then equal him to God, when they pray to him? |
| A66436 | And he adds, May we not have such a Notion of an infinite Attribute? |
| A66436 | And how doth that differ from the modelling and changing all things in Heaven and Earth, to a new and better estate? |
| A66436 | And if any one should ask what is the difference? |
| A66436 | And is not that Idolatry, to give to a Creature the Worship belonging to the Creator? |
| A66436 | And then he smartly returns upon him, How, Sir, is that a good Consequence, or any Consequence at all? |
| A66436 | And then how comes he before to acknowledge the Truth of that saying of his Lordship''s, that we can not comprehend the least Spire of Grass? |
| A66436 | And to close the Objection, Do you not then give the like, nay the same Honour to Christ as to God? |
| A66436 | And what a presumption would it be in a Creature that had a beginning, to say of himself, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last? |
| A66436 | And what advantage could they have from him that was to come into the world for the Redemption of Mankind 4000, 3000,& c. years after? |
| A66436 | And what is it to worship him as God, but to give him Divine Worship? |
| A66436 | And when the Son is called God in Scripture, what is the difference between God the Son, and the Son that is God? |
| A66436 | And where doth the Absurdity lie? |
| A66436 | As if I would ask, What is an infinite Attribute? |
| A66436 | But I do not see how it follows, that if he is from himself, he must be before he was? |
| A66436 | But after all, is this a Misrepresentation? |
| A66436 | But his Grace saith, This Gospel was wrote against Cerinthus; and then, saith our Author, how came the Cerinthians to use it? |
| A66436 | But his Grace will say perhaps, Why? |
| A66436 | But how came that word Existence in? |
| A66436 | But how can the Being of a Creature be commensurate to all the several respects of Duration, past, present, and to come? |
| A66436 | But is no such person ever mentioned in Scripture, as God the Son? |
| A66436 | But is not Prayer a part of Divine Worship, and peculiar to God? |
| A66436 | But is not this to equal him with God, to whom alone we are taught to direct our Prayers? |
| A66436 | But may he urge, Do n''t you acknowledge the Son of God to be God? |
| A66436 | But what a v ● st solitude was there, a Chasm of 4000 years before his Birth and Being? |
| A66436 | But what do they understand by the Word, when the Word is said to be made Flesh? |
| A66436 | But what doth our Author mean? |
| A66436 | But what if those Proofs run no higher than Arianism? |
| A66436 | But what then will become of the other Evangelists? |
| A66436 | But where are those Texts that expresly say, that our Saviour ascended into Heaven before his Ministry? |
| A66436 | But where is the Contradiction? |
| A66436 | But why Some? |
| A66436 | But will he say, Is not this all one, when he that suffer''d and died, is, in our opinion, God as well as Man? |
| A66436 | Did never any Vnitarians or Socinians give Honour and Worship, a like and even the same to Christ as to the Father? |
| A66436 | Do we understand Infinity, a Spirit, or Eternity, the better for all this? |
| A66436 | Do you not pray to Christ? |
| A66436 | Doth the Archbishop reason from the Context? |
| A66436 | For Duration is a continuance of Time; but what Duration was there in Eternity, before there was any Time, or God began to operate and make the World? |
| A66436 | For if the Books that are the Text of it are so mangled, what certainty is there left about any part of it? |
| A66436 | For what Heresy is there in simple Poverty? |
| A66436 | For what Succession was there before the Creation of the World? |
| A66436 | For what doth he say, but what they have said before him? |
| A66436 | For what else is the effect of his Doctrine of Succession in God, and passing from one Duration to another? |
| A66436 | For would you know who those are that he proclaims War against? |
| A66436 | For, Might not the Jews then reply, So Abraham was before Adam, and so both Abraham and Adam were before the World? |
| A66436 | For, is there any word leaning this way? |
| A66436 | For, saith he, What makes him[ the Bishop] say, God must be from himself, or self- originated? |
| A66436 | Had he no way to defend his New Mysteries, but by espousing the Cause of the Atheists? |
| A66436 | Have there been no Christians in the World for 1500 Years, but only the Arians and Trinitarians? |
| A66436 | He demands, saith he, when did this Ascension of our Saviour into Heaven happen? |
| A66436 | How doth he argue against it from the Weakness of the Socinian attempts to prove it, and for which in effect they have nothing to say? |
| A66436 | How from the inconsistency of it with Scripture? |
| A66436 | How is the Scene changed upon this? |
| A66436 | How then can he say that his Grace can raise- the expressions no higher than Arianism? |
| A66436 | Is that Charge a Device of the Trinitarians? |
| A66436 | Let us suppose this, what is it then they deny? |
| A66436 | Must they be excluded out of the number of the Canonical? |
| A66436 | Now supposing it so to be, Why must it thus be supplied? |
| A66436 | Now the question will be, Whether St. John hath used them by chance, as our Author imagines? |
| A66436 | Now this is more than his Adversary charges them with: But what do they mean? |
| A66436 | Or was Socinus the first( for that( it may be) was his Grace''s meaning) who departed from the Arian and Trinitarian Sense of the Context? |
| A66436 | Or why may it not be said, Before Abraham was, I was in being? |
| A66436 | Or will it prove that the Gospel is a Valentinian, a Cerinthian, or Gnostick Gospel? |
| A66436 | Supposing it to be so*, what will follow? |
| A66436 | That is, Was''t thou coexistent with him, and born in his time, who has been so long dead? |
| A66436 | The first is,''That if God was for ever, he must be from himself; and what Notion can we have in our minds concerning it? |
| A66436 | This, I am sure is nothing to the purpose; for what is this to the Pre existence of our Saviour, the present subject of the Discourse? |
| A66436 | To this they captiously object, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? |
| A66436 | To what purpose is this? |
| A66436 | What Eternity? |
| A66436 | What Service could he challenge from them, when he himself lay in the Embrio of nothing? |
| A66436 | What if Ebion at last is found to be a Person? |
| A66436 | What is a Spirit? |
| A66436 | What is it then his Grace alledges this Text for? |
| A66436 | What is the Word but the Son of God, and when the Word and the Son are the same, what is the difference between God the Word, and God the Son? |
| A66436 | What is this brought to prove? |
| A66436 | What more plain, if his Argument be true, than that there can be no personal Union between the Soul and Body, such distant extremes? |
| A66436 | Where is it expresly said in that, or any other Text, that our Saviour ascended into Heaven before his Ministry? |
| A66436 | Where the Angels and Heavenly Powers that were put under his direction, and by him employed in defence and succor of the faithful? |
| A66436 | Where was the Paganism and Idolatry he in that dismal Interval abolished? |
| A66436 | Who are the Ancient Unitarians, that our Author at all times speaks so venerably of, and that thus rejected the Books usually ascribed to St. John? |
| A66436 | Whom makest thou thy self? |
| A66436 | Why so? |
| A66436 | Will it prove Cerinthus to be the Author of that Gospel? |
| A66436 | Would this prove what was to be proved, That he that was not fifty years old, had seen Abraham, or that he was Co- existent with Abraham? |
| A66436 | and in what a condition was the whole World of Intelligent Beings, till our Saviours Resurrection and Ascension? |
| A66436 | and yet knew not the time or day of Judgment? |
| A66436 | p. 57. which he more largely prosecutes, p. 64,& c. What saith our Author to this? |
