A42456 | For first, who be the They, that he speaketh of? |
A42456 | For how can that be erroneous, that is held on good ground? |
A42456 | For not to stand upon strict terms concerning the word Worthie: what doth M. Wotton say more here, then that which he saith else- where? |
A42456 | For what needed M. Walker to have kept all this coil, and have made all this ado if no such thing had then been, or were about to ● e done? |
A42456 | For x what Iudge is bound to sentence any man upon evidence not produced? |
A42456 | How many mens writings may more then seven times seven errors be found in, whom it were yet most uncharitable therefore to censure for such? |
A42456 | Is the name of Antonie Wotton then so obscure a title? |
A42456 | Or is every one that is taken in grosse contradictions, of necessity thereupon to be condemned for an heretick? |
A42456 | Or wil M. Walker therefore dare to pronounce Luther an heretick, as denying the truth of Christs humanity? |
A42456 | Purgemme? |
A42456 | Sixtly, suppose it were an error, and a dangerous one to, that M. Wotton maintains; whence knows M. Walker? |
A42456 | Thirdly, what if M. Wotton and M. Bradshaw do not herein at all differ, or crosse either other? |
A42456 | We use to ask, who are blinder then they that wil not see? |
A42456 | What more pregnant? |
A42456 | Whether of the two do you credit? |
A42456 | Which if he speak of the word merit, who wil, or can deny the truth of it? |
A42456 | Who is he, that is careful to make diligent enquiry into the truth of things, who doth not oft alter his former opinion? |
A42456 | Wotton published, truly related, or no? |
A42456 | Yea but, how doth M. Walker, from what he either finds in M. Wotton, or fathers on him, extract a denial of Christs Deity? |
A42456 | Yea take away all benefit of Exposition, and who almost may not be condemned of heresie and blasphemy? |
A42456 | and was not M. Wotton the same? |
A42456 | and why not also, x because I do alwaies those things, that are pleasing to him? |
A42456 | and withall desired me to give mine opinion, whether that were not an error? |
A42456 | and yet what is it, that M. Walker thence here alledgeth? |
A42456 | at least why doth he not arraign and condemn him for an heretick as wel as M. Wotton? |
A42456 | b Where at length shall we have him? |
A42456 | but may very well be reconciled? |
A42456 | d Ecquis innocens esse pote ● j ● ● si acousasse sufficiet? |
A42456 | doth not the same word say, that k he was in favour, yea that l he grew in favour, both with God and man? |
A42456 | for how did not he take upon him to determine what was heresie, when he charged M. Wotton with it? |
A42456 | h Now where, saith he, is the infinite valew of Christs Deity, if he have need of justification and favour for himself? |
A42456 | how cometh he then to say, They? |
A42456 | or was it related only there; but pretended before at the meeting among our selves? |
A42456 | or was not either of these for himself? |
A42456 | u Is this matter of eating our Saviour such a pill to your understanding, that rather then disgest it, you will turne Turke or Infidel? |
A42456 | was it pretended at the Table? |
A42456 | was it the Doctor alone, that told all this faire tale, and pretended all this? |
A42456 | would it thence follow that M. VVotton denies the Deity of Christ? |
A42456 | yea or, that in those very words they speake the same thing? |
A42456 | ● iri creditis? |
A44658 | A Friend of mine, of Quality and Learning, told me, he ask''d a Minister why he was displeas''d at the History of Religion? |
A44658 | And for whom is it, that you counterfeit this pious Tenderness? |
A44658 | But has Socinus wrote against Christianity? |
A44658 | But how do Mr. Blount and Sir R. H. differ in the Accounts which they give of the Original of Idolatry? |
A44658 | But now it will be ask''d, why it''s call''d Reveal''d Religion? |
A44658 | But pray how has Sir R. set his Face directly against the Doctrines of Religion? |
A44658 | But what do I talk of good luck? |
A44658 | But what is there, so remote, or hid from others, that a Student can not discover it? |
A44658 | But what says Sir R. H.? |
A44658 | But what shall we do in this case? |
A44658 | But why Sons of Belial? |
A44658 | But why not as well the Rites of the latter from the former? |
A44658 | But why that Consequence? |
A44658 | But why this to the Author of the History of Religion? |
A44658 | But why would the Libeller have us believe to the bottom of an Article, when to the bottom we can not dive? |
A44658 | By what Religion, Sir? |
A44658 | Can we describe it? |
A44658 | Do we understand it perfectly? |
A44658 | Do you think your good Nature will bear you out? |
A44658 | For what Nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them as the Lord our God is in all things, that we call upon him for? |
A44658 | Has he confounded Arbitrary Power that had well nigh confounded the Nation? |
A44658 | How Sir R. H. has provok''d,& c. Has Sir R. H. question''d the Existence of a Deity? |
A44658 | How so; have you dropt the least word against the Doctrines of the Trinity, the Incarnation, or the Satisfaction? |
A44658 | Is a Deist quite as bad as an Atheist? |
A44658 | Is not Heaven a Mystery to us? |
A44658 | Is this the Sobriety of a Bishop Elect; or a Reflection to be prefaced with, a Blessed God? |
A44658 | Now what Disciple of Spinoza or Hobbs could have put such pointed words into the Mouth of a wise Heathen? |
A44658 | Now what if Mr. Blount does build on the same Foundation as Dr. Tillotson? |
A44658 | Now who knows but that Sir R. H''s Socinianism may in time come to be good Orthodox Doctrine? |
A44658 | Now, Sir, what do you think of your self, that would have me deal gently with Men that blaspheme both God, and the King? |
A44658 | One word more with this Nominal Vindicator, Why is the History of Religion such an Execrable Pamphlet? |
A44658 | Very true: But what will he hence prove? |
A44658 | What Nation has so glorious Testimonies of Divine Favour and Presence as you have? |
A44658 | What an insufferable Presumption is it in him, to be positive? |
A44658 | What are the Doctrines of Christianity, against which Sir R. H. has fought with borrow''d Socinian Arms? |
A44658 | What is to be got by believing more than we can understand? |
A44658 | What mean these words, Sir R. H. levels directly at the Trinity, Incarnation, Divinity and Satisfaction of Christ? |
A44658 | What new great Mystery''s this, that''s come to Town, So long kept silent, and so lately known? |
A44658 | What says Momus to this? |
A44658 | What then? |
A44658 | and is it not reasonable, is it not necessary, that the Methods of fitting us for it, and of conveying us thither, should be very mysterious to us? |
A44658 | and what Nation is there so great, that hath Statutes and Jugdments so righteous as all this Law which I set before you this day? |

A44658 | how will the Gentlemen answer it to God, and their Country, who have laid open the Inclosures of the Corporation? |
A44658 | if the World be made acquainted, how the Heathen Priests topp''d false Doctrines upon the People, and by cunning wicked Arts made a Gain of them? |
A44658 | or deny''d the Truth of Revealed Religion? |
A44658 | prov''d himself a Blockhead, which he need not have done neither? |
A44658 | that accursed and devoted Head? |
A44658 | was God''s Nature chang''d, was he grown weary of the Purity and Simplicity of the Worship which the best Men of the first Ages paid him? |
A44658 | what''s the fault of that History? |
A44658 | who translated himself but t''other day, from working on another Man''s profane Satyr, to the study of Divinity? |
A44658 | would have done it? |
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 | Well: What shall we do then? |
A59791 | Were they not dispersed in every Corner, and boasted of in every Coffee- house, before any Answer appeared? |
A59791 | What Faith is that which can subsist without a Foundation? |
A59791 | What Faith must we contend for, if not for Fundamentals? |
A59791 | What else can we dispute for, when Foundations are overturned? |
A59791 | What else is worth disputing? |
A59791 | What is the meaning of that Apostolical Precept, To contend earnestly for the Faith? |
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? |
A42050 | And if so, How can two such Persons be in an equal Capacity of Salvation, except a wrong way do as directly lead to Heaven as the right one? |
A42050 | And if so, How could the trial of Religions depend upon the Press in those early days, when as yet it had no being? |
A42050 | And is it not high time to watch the Press, lest any thing steal from thence, which may Poyson the Heads of unwary Men? |
A42050 | And is the, how, all? |
A42050 | And was not the neglect of this Duty a sin in former Ages, when there was not so much as one Press in all the World? |
A42050 | And whom he means by these Hereticks, he elsewhere tells us, Calvinistos& Lutheranos Haereticos esse quis non videt? |
A42050 | Are not their Writings and ours to be seen, and had in many Shops in London, Oxford, Cambridge, and other great Towns and Cities? |
A42050 | Are ten thousand of us at once presumed to be Hypocrites, Juglers, and gross Dissemblers with God and Man? |
A42050 | But here it may be demanded, Who must judge, whether such or such an Opinion be justified or condemned by such or such a Text? |
A42050 | But is the miscarriage of some few Licensers an Argument that they should all be laid aside? |
A42050 | But to whom ought the Care of this be committed? |
A42050 | But what do they speak? |
A42050 | But whence might this gross Ignorance of theirs arise? |
A42050 | But where lieth the Fault? |
A42050 | But why did St. Paul inflict it? |
A42050 | Did any of them ever provoke the professours of Divinity in either of our Universities, to a publick Disputation, and was refused? |
A42050 | Did they give them an universal Liberty of Conscience? |
A42050 | Did they indulge them? |
A42050 | For if our Directions should chance to prove wrong, What Excuse could we make? |
A42050 | Have they not received our printed Answers to their printed Objections? |
A42050 | Have we no Catechisms, no Systems of Divinity left amongst us? |
A42050 | His Inference is this, If the first be their Duty, the Press ought not to be restrained; But why not? |
A42050 | If they have, Why should this Author complain for want of fair Play? |
A42050 | Is a Bridle and a Halter the same thing? |
A42050 | Is it indeed his pleasure, that ill Men, and ill Opinions, should be indulged and countenanced in his Church? |
A42050 | Is the what excluded? |
A42050 | It will not fright Men from considering,& c. but what Men? |
A42050 | Must we permit the Church our Mother, or her Sons who are our Brethren to receive Wounds in their Heads, because we have Balsam enough to Cure them? |
A42050 | Must we permit the Souls of Men to be poysoned, because we abound with Sovereign Antidotes? |
A42050 | Nay more, are there not Popish and Socinian Catechisms to be had in England? |
A42050 | Nay, are there not Books of Controversies exposed to Sale in our Cities, greater Towns, and both our Universities? |
A42050 | Nay, the Psalmist tells his God, They speak against thee; and what wonder then if they speak against his Religion too? |
A42050 | Now, the Question is, Who must judge betwixt us and them? |
A42050 | Of the same mind was St. Paul, who saith, Their Mouths must be stopped; but how can that be done, if there may be no Penal Laws? |
A42050 | Protestants they are, but why are they such? |
A42050 | Quae est pejor mors animae, quàm libertas erroris? |
A42050 | Some Judges have been corrupted, and must we therefore have neither King nor Judg? |
A42050 | Suppose a Man profess the Religion of Mahomet with the greatest Devotion that can be, would not the what condemn him, or would the how excuse him? |
A42050 | Tell me then, are our Bibles out of Print, or taken from us? |
A42050 | The Heretick must not be destroyed, but may he not be restrain''d? |
A42050 | There are indeed in the word of God, as the Apostle saith, Some things hard to be understood; but in what Texts do these difficulties lie? |
A42050 | These indeed are very considerable Objections against the Restraint of the Press, were they true; But how doth our Author prove them so to be? |
A42050 | They who have a good Cause, but who are they? |
A42050 | To this our Lord sent his hearers, Search the Scriptures; and again, How readest thou? |
A42050 | Upon whom, or what, must this sin be charged? |
A42050 | We are abundantly convinced that our Religion can not be false; and why then should any Man presume that we have indeed other thoughts concerning it? |
A42050 | We grant it, but what then? |
A42050 | We have so, and bless God for it; But what then? |
A42050 | We, who teach Men that a false Religion leads towards Hell, do we know our own to be false, and yet embrace it still? |
A42050 | Well, the main Parties, now contending, are the Church of England, and our Socinians, and have not these Men very often been heard already? |
A42050 | What one single Soul would be the worse? |
A42050 | Who must determine, whether the Scripture be on their side, or ours? |
A42050 | Why else doth the Apostle mention the Glorious Light of the Gospel? |
A42050 | Why should he unworthily tell the World, that we dare not suffer our Religion to undergo a fair Trial, for fear it should prove False? |
A42050 | did Hezekiah, did Josiah, nay did Jehu, grant a Publick Indulgence for the Worship of Idols, because many both Laicks and Priests were for it? |
A42050 | the whole Clergy? |
A42050 | 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, shall I bring a Rod to whip and scourge you? |
A52291 | 3. is Eternal Life promised to Belief in the Son? |
A52291 | 53. Who shall declare his generation? |
A52291 | And besides, what signifies the largeness and gloriousness of the Heavenly Bodies, in comparison with Mens Immortal Souls? |
A52291 | And had the Socinian Brethren nothing to do, when they wrote their Summaries of Religion, which are Catalogues of their Fundamentals? |
A52291 | And so now what is become of our Authour''s natural Faith which he makes to be the Mother of the Evangelical? |
A52291 | And what other use do we desire to make of them than this? |
A52291 | And what then? |
A52291 | And why should not poor Athanasius Bishop of Alexandria, a mighty City too, draw as many of his Neighbours of his side? |
A52291 | Are all his Chapters about the Socinian Notions of Faith nothing but slips in the penning? |
A52291 | Are so many Arguments against our Saviour''s eternal Generation nothing else? |
A52291 | Besides, if the Holy Ghost be only an action, with what propriety of speech can he be said to act or do? |
A52291 | But I say, What constat is there that he designed only this? |
A52291 | But after all, What constat is there that he designed this to be handed only to those Members? |
A52291 | But for all our Authours hast, why ca n''t we imagine a third way, that he should be two Natures, and but one Person? |
A52291 | But how can he draw from these words, that he had an implicit Faith in the other? |
A52291 | But how does he prove that it may not be so for all the Doctrine of the Trinity? |
A52291 | But how does he prove that? |
A52291 | But however, why should we not dispute concerning a Mystery? |
A52291 | But then, what is this to our Authour''s purpose? |
A52291 | But to pass over this, what though this Controversy was setled by Theodosius? |
A52291 | But what are these to Three distinct Persons in one Essence? |
A52291 | But what disgrace is it to this Council to be Condemned by an Heretick and an Usurper, as Basiliscus was both? |
A52291 | But what is this idle Excuse of an Arian Conventicle to the great Orthodox Council of Nice? |
A52291 | But what though there did arise some Troubles in the Church, upon this dispute of our Saviour''s Divinity? |
A52291 | But what though they did cap Scripture? |
A52291 | But who ever said, that our Lord''s name, being in any Proposition, gave truth or dignity to it purely as such? |
A52291 | But why must every explication of the Possibility of the existence of a thing make it comprehensible? |
A52291 | But why must this be an implicit Faith in two Bishops? |
A52291 | But why should difficulty make a defect of Faith? |
A52291 | But why should not the Bishop of Constantinople, by the same rule, have as many always at his command? |
A52291 | But why should they be lead by the Greatness of his City? |
A52291 | But why so? |
A52291 | But why so? |
A52291 | But, by the Authour''s Favour, who ever, of the Orthodox, said, our Lord''s Person was comprehensible, or ever pretended to comprehend it? |
A52291 | But, why this to the Convocation? |
A52291 | Do the Rubricks, Canons, Articles, or any other Publick Authority of the Church say any thing like it? |
A52291 | Doth not this( says the Authour) plainly deny a Resurrection of the same numerical Particles? |
A52291 | For what can we suppose those Men to say or do, which out of base compliance to a wicked Emperour, had denied their Faith? |
A52291 | For, I pray, what difference is there between Sabellius''s Explication of the Trinity and the Doctor''s? |
A52291 | Has he any 〈 ◊ 〉, that the Compilers of the Common- Prayer designed any such thing? |
A52291 | How all the Gospel is Faith and Repentance? |
A52291 | Now can any mortal Man conclude from hence, that the word God is used to signify something indefinite? |
A52291 | Now in the Union of the Divinity with the humanity, wherein possibly can their Oneness consist, but only in their personality? |
A52291 | Now is not this a pretty excuse after so long hammering out? |
A52291 | Now what can be meant by knowing Jesus Christ, but knowing or believing his Divinity? |
A52291 | Now what sense is there generally in Mens Excuses, when they are resolved to do an ill thing, and want something to say for the doing of it? |
A52291 | Now, is this the Explication that agrees to a Syllable, both to the Holy Scripture, and the Church of England? |
A52291 | Now, what can the Authour draw from this? |
A52291 | Now, what should all this gladness and rejoicing be for? |
A52291 | Or else how come they to make use of that pretty distinction of a God by Nature, and a God by Office? |
A52291 | Quid sibi saxa cavatae, Quid pulchra volunt monimentae? |
A52291 | The Question was put, whether they believed in Homo- ousium or in Christ? |
A52291 | The Sun is a glorious Body, and the more we strive to pry into its Constitution by gazing on it, the more we are blinded; and what then? |
A52291 | V. Why Faith made a greater Figure under the Gospel, than it did under the Law? |
A52291 | Well, but the Authour says, if the Trinity be a Mystery, why should we dispute any longer about it? |
A52291 | Well, but what is this to the Union of Spirits, or rational Beings? |
A52291 | What Changes or Additions latter Ages have made in Matters of Faith? |
A52291 | What alterations or additions have after Ages made in it? |
A52291 | What figure Faith made in natural Religion? |
A52291 | What if ye shall see the Son of Man ascend up where he was before? |
A52291 | What natural Faith is? |
A52291 | What say you, O blessed Paul? |
A52291 | What was that Gospel which our Lord and his Apostles preached as necessary to be believed? |
A52291 | What was the Gospel which our Saviour and his Apostles preached? |
A52291 | Whether it is not promised to the Belief of the true God? |
A52291 | Whom of his stamp did he find there, that he could dare to communicate such a Book to? |
A52291 | Why has not he whom the Father has sanctified,& c. a better claim to this Title? |
A52291 | Will he allow, that Arius, and Euzoius, and Eusebius of Caesarea,& c. were only playing the Fools, whilst they were drawing up their Creeds? |
A52291 | With what tolerable sense can an action be said to speak? |
A52291 | Would not this be as good a Conclusion to all intents and purposes? |
A52291 | are the Orthodox to blame that asserted it, or the Hereticks that denied it? |
A52291 | are there Two Wills, and Two kinds of Operations, or but One? |
A52291 | because our Eyes are so weak that we can not stare into the Furnace of the Sun, must we therefore take it for a Candle? |
A52291 | but what if the relation between the written word and the rational consequence, be so remote, that none but a skilful Herald can drive its Pedigree? |
A52291 | don''t we know the Sun when we see it for all this? |
A52291 | is this the putting the old Materials into a new and better Frame, which he so boasts of? |
A52291 | or who else does he mean by this We? |
A52291 | † Now what is that which is in the graves, but only the Bodies of Men? |
A52291 | † Quid unquam aliud Conciliorum decretis enisa est Ecclesia, nisi ut quod antea simpliciter credebatur hoc idem postea diligentius crederetur? |
A52291 | † Testimoniorum quae sunt genera? |
A38042 | & c. To coakse the Mob he prophanely brings in that place of Scripture, Have any of the Rulers believ''d in him? |
A38042 | 4. Who but the Vindicator could imagine that these Evangelical Doctrines are not Necessary Matter of Faith to Christian Men? |
A38042 | AND now, to prove yet further the Pernicious Nature of his Writings, doth any man doubt of their Tendency to Irreligion and Atheisin? |
A38042 | Again, granting that the Epistles were all of them writ to those that already believed, yet what can this be to his purpose? |
A38042 | And O how he grins at the Spirit of Creed- making? |
A38042 | And are not these Truths the proper Object of our Faith now under the Gospel, they so peculiarly belonging to the doctrine and belief of the Messias? |
A38042 | And do not these foresaid Texts, which we find in St. Paul''s Epistles, acquaint us with the true Source and Quality of our condition by nature? |
A38042 | And how indeed can they be? |
A38042 | And is not the Reader satisfied that such language as this hath real Truth in it? |
A38042 | And is there no Atheism in this? |
A38042 | And is this set down to no purpose in these Inspired Epistles? |
A38042 | And must he tell the world that the Iesuitical Writers take the part of the Socinians? |
A38042 | And where can we be inform''d concerning the Rise and Nature of this Evil, but in the Sacred and Inspired Writings? |
A38042 | And who could do this but a man that was wholly careless of his Credit, and did not care how he acted? |
A38042 | And why may we not distinguish between these and the Occasional Matters as well as between the Others and them? |
A38042 | And why should not every one of these Evangelical Truths( which is another thing he puts into his Question) be believed and imbraced? |
A38042 | Are we not particularly and expresly told by St. Luke that he writ his Gospel to the most Excellent Theophilus? |
A38042 | But I ask, Why had we not a hint( one gentle hint at least) of this in all his Book? |
A38042 | But he deridingly cries out What will become of me, that I have not mention''d SATISFACTION? |
A38042 | But was it not judiciously said by this Writer that it is well for the Compilers of the Creed that they lived not in my days? |
A38042 | But what is this that he hath to say of my Booksellers? |
A38042 | But what need I, Good Sir, do this, when you have done it your self? |
A38042 | But when doth he do this? |
A38042 | But who doth not wonder more at his Insincerity, that he should act thus? |
A38042 | But who sees not that hereby they depress Christianity, and unspeakably injure the Faith of the Gospel? |
A38042 | But who sees not that this is a mere Elusion? |
A38042 | Can there be a more extravagant way of talking than this? |
A38042 | Can this Writer himself consider this, and not blush? |
A38042 | Can we believe in him, and yet not believe these Great things which are brought to light by his preaching the Gospel? |
A38042 | Did he not, when he writ to the Galatians assert the doctrine of Justification through faith in Christ''s Righteousness, without the Works of the Law? |
A38042 | Do we not know that the Four Gospels were Writ to and for Believers as well as Vnbelievers? |
A38042 | Do you not hereby proclaim to the world that you will put off the Reader with any idle and groundless Conceit of your own? |
A38042 | Doth he not perceive that the discarding of all the Articles but One makes way for the casting off that too? |
A38042 | Doth not this plainly shew that this is All that is requir''d to be believ''d as Necessary to make a man a Christian? |
A38042 | For I ask, what was the end of his being sent? |
A38042 | How impossible then is it for himself to know his heart? |
A38042 | How the Second and Third Persons can be Self- existent? |
A38042 | How then come you, Mr. Examinator, to invent these things for him? |
A38042 | Is it not enough to rob us of our God, by denying Christ to be so, but must they spoil us of all the Other Articles of Christian Faith but One? |
A38042 | Is it not reasonable that a Christian should( as the Apostle speaks of himself) know whom he hath believed? |
A38042 | Is it not requisite that we should know it and believe it? |
A38042 | Might not the Apostle, yea did he not in his Epistles to these Persons remind them of the Great Articles of the Christian Faith? |
A38042 | Must no Believers have any Fundamentals taught them? |
A38042 | Must not this then be his Lasting Character that he hath in his Writings demonstated himself to be not only a Socinian, but a False hearted one? |
A38042 | Nay, did they not require Assent to them? |
A38042 | Now, Sir, you with your Reasonableness of Christianity, what do you think of this? |
A38042 | Suppose they have forgot the Fundamentals, or have corrupted and perverted them? |
A38042 | The use of it, and that in the very way that I have applied it, is to be found in Scripture: Art thou the first man that was born? |
A38042 | This takes up 18 or 19 whole Pages: and why? |
A38042 | Was it not enough, I say, to do all this( which loudly proclaims him a Socinian) but must he also hold the world in hand that he is none? |
A38042 | Was it not that those they writ to might give their Assent to them? |
A38042 | Was it not to Help Mankind, to rescue and deliver them from some Evil? |
A38042 | Were ye baptised in the name of Paul? |
A38042 | What a weak and pitiful Consequence is this? |
A38042 | What dost thou chiefly learn in these Articles of thy Belief? |
A38042 | What is the meaning of Catechizing, which hath been so universally commended and practised by the Ancients? |
A38042 | What is there that he will not take hold of to be Sportive and Gamesome? |
A38042 | What is there that this Gentleman will not turn into Ridicule or Falsity? |
A38042 | What need we have any other part of the New Testament? |
A38042 | What shall we say then to such men as these who will vouch any thing? |
A38042 | What shall we say to such an Oblivious Author as this? |
A38042 | What shall we say? |
A38042 | Who but a Socinian can believe this? |
A38042 | Who could do this but a Socinianiz''d Writer? |
A38042 | Why did the Apostles write these Doctrines? |
A38042 | Why is this sometimes urged without the mentioning of any other Article of Belief? |
A38042 | Why must he be said to be the Ablest Defender when we can name so many Eminent Writers in other Countreys that have perform''d this task? |
A38042 | Would not a Man be hooted at for such Arguing as this? |
A38042 | Yea, is not this absolutely requisite? |
A38042 | as our First Parent Adam? |
A38042 | for what is excluding them wholly but defying them? |
A38042 | had he not enough of the Quaker but he must bring in the Iesuite? |
A38042 | must he publickly give notice that they both carry on the same work, and joyntly conspire to pervert the Scriptures in order to it? |
A38042 | of Christ''s Coming) which all Christians( especially Socinian Christians) are agreed in? |
A38042 | that Iesus is the Messias or Christ, is so often repeated in the New Testament? |
A38042 | the Apostacy of Adam( for he is that one Man) and the dreadful Consequences of it, expressed by Death and Wrath? |
A38042 | the Bishop) say, God must be from himself, or self- originated? |
A38042 | was this only to teach One Article of Faith? |
A59811 | And are they not already concluded by the Articles, Liturgy, Homilies,& c. which he says our Adversaries can not alter? |
A59811 | And did the Dean charge him with any thing more? |
A59811 | And has not that School Divinity enough in it? |
A59811 | And how comes he to know his thoughts? |
A59811 | And if we may do this, Why is it not seasonable to do it now Hereticks are so busy in perverting the true sense of Scripture? |
A59811 | And then Calvin disliked it also; but so he did Episcopacy; and will he think that a sufficient ground to censure our Reformers for retaining it? |
A59811 | And whether that were a good reason not to dispute for the Being of a God, because Atheists denied it? |
A59811 | And who desires him to do more? |
A59811 | Are they not his Friends who move these Ancient Boundaries of Peace? |
A59811 | Basil did dye after one Council only had sat, did not the rest there named live and write after more Councils than one had sat? |
A59811 | But after all, How would this put an End to these Controversies? |
A59811 | But ca n''t he believe what Reason and Divine Revelation Di ● tate? |
A59811 | But can he never be sure of this in any Texts that have been Controverted? |
A59811 | But does a God Incarnate signify any more, but that he who is Incarnate is God? |
A59811 | But does he really think the Church desires no man to believe the Creeds, and particularly the Doctrine of the Trinity, but only not to oppose them? |
A59811 | But have we not whole Systems of Opinions now a- days made up into Confessions of Faith? |
A59811 | But if this were all, Do our Socinians observe this? |
A59811 | But is there not the same reason of it, as of those things that are? |
A59811 | But let us see how he makes it good, What then, do you think of a t ● cit connivance at their stay at home? |
A59811 | But must nothing be done, from whence bad men may take occasion to be Hypocrites? |
A59811 | But then I pray, what is the Latitude in an Vnit, considered as an Unit? |
A59811 | But then, What do you think of a tacit Connivance quietly to come to our Congregations? |
A59811 | But to what purpose are these Citations? |
A59811 | But what has he to answer this Authority? |
A59811 | But what is all this to the Publick Constitutions of a Church, and the Laws of Communion? |
A59811 | But what is this to our purpose? |
A59811 | But what of all this? |
A59811 | Can any thinking man say so? |
A59811 | Did he do that, only that he might have liberty to Ridicule and Expose it? |
A59811 | Doth she indeed hand them to us merely as her own Determinations? |
A59811 | For if I confess that God is Almighty in the most express terms that can be imagined, may I not for all that affirm, that he is not Just or Good? |
A59811 | For in this present Controversy what had he to do with their other Errors? |
A59811 | He could assign many words pitch''d upon from time to time, to guard the Faith and prick the fingers of Hereticks,& c. What then? |
A59811 | However, he is so great a Lover of Peace( why then does he quarrel so much with the Orthodox Writers, and the Church of England?) |
A59811 | I would ask him also, Whether he did not Address to all Learned Writers against the Socinians in this Conttoversy, as well as to the Dean? |
A59811 | If Dr. Sherlock does not argue well, must no body therefore write, that can argue better? |
A59811 | If his Hypothesis be unreasonable, is it therefore unreasonable to write in Defence of the Doctrine of the Trinity? |
A59811 | If our Author answers this too with a Why not? |
A59811 | Is it then to no purpose to teach men the Truth, because they may put upon us, and say they believe it when they do not? |
A59811 | Is it to no purpose to require men to profess their minds sincerely, because we can not always be sure whether they do or no? |
A59811 | Is not this agreeable to the common form of speech? |
A59811 | Nay, and is not what follows, Censuring our Litany and the Compilers of it? |
A59811 | No doubt but he has: What then? |
A59811 | Now what is this to the design of his Book, to persuade men not to Write in Defence of the Doctrine of the Trinity? |
A59811 | Now who can tell what he means by merely her Determinations? |
A59811 | Or do they contradict them? |
A59811 | Or is the Doctrine it self unreasonable? |
A59811 | Pray what''s the matter now? |
A59811 | Pray who are they that will not l ● t it rest? |
A59811 | They are only some Reflections on his Answer to an Objection started by himself in these Words, shall we tamely by a base silence give up the Point? |
A59811 | This he very roundly answers, and utterly confutes, with a short Why not? |
A59811 | Was the dispute, whether the Dean should write in defence of the Doctrine of the Trinity, or whether the Doctrine of the Trinity should be defended? |
A59811 | Why does not he first persuade them to comply thus far, before he desires us not to defend the Church''s Doctrine? |
A59811 | Why then may we not Write in Defence of the Doctrine of the Trinity, and show what is the true sense of Scripture in that Point? |
A59811 | Why then, Must they not be obeyed? |
A59811 | Will his Socinian Friends submit to it? |
A59811 | Will the Socinians be generally Converted any more than they are by Learned mens Writings now? |
A59811 | Will they admit Socinian Opinions? |
A59811 | Will they leave off making Proselytes to their Heretical Opinions? |
A59811 | Will they then not say a word against the Doctrine of the Trinity, nor endeavour to spread their Errors any farther? |
A59811 | Will this justify the writing of that Piece? |
A59811 | and the fittest persons a Committee chosen by that great and reverend Assembly? |
A59811 | must we all pass contentedly for Socinians in the eye of the world, and be afraid to say we are none? |
A59811 | or if they do, will he give us leave to Oppose them and Defend the Truth? |
A51837 | 53.8, He shall be taken from prison and judgement; therefore Man: yet who shall declare his generation? |
A51837 | According to what nature doth this office belong to Christ, Divine or Humane? |
A51837 | All things were made by him: What, all without exception? |
A51837 | And are not these great Points? |
A51837 | And how by him? |
A51837 | And must this Religion that condemneth all frauds, and doing evil that good may come of it be supported by a lye? |
A51837 | And that ye put on the New man which after God is created in Righteousness and true Holiness? |
A51837 | And what blessing was that? |
A51837 | Believe ye that I am able to do this? |
A51837 | Besides, if he had it then how could he want it now? |
A51837 | But how do we receive this atonement? |
A51837 | But how is he infinite, if he hath onely a finite Nature, such as a mere Creature hath? |
A51837 | But why was a Ransom necessary? |
A51837 | Did God ever speak to him, or appear to him? |
A51837 | Did the Winds and Seas obey Christ? |
A51837 | Did they do this by command of God? |
A51837 | For the first objection, how was Christ the first, since many were raised before him? |
A51837 | God is offended, and what peace can they have? |
A51837 | Hath God said? |
A51837 | He that brought such multitudes of creatures out of the dark Chaos, hath he forgotten what is become of our dust? |
A51837 | He that gave Life and Being to that which before was not, can not he raise the dead? |
A51837 | He that made the world out of nothing, can not he raise the dead? |
A51837 | He was God: What did he then do? |
A51837 | His Attributes yours, his Providences yours, his Promises yours, what may not you promise your selves from him? |
A51837 | His Kingly Office: How can that be exercised without an Infinite Power? |
A51837 | How can a Magistrate be said to forgive an offender, when the offender beareth the punishment, which the Law determineth? |
A51837 | How he made all things? |
A51837 | How he made all things? |
A51837 | How he received this Doctrine from the Father? |
A51837 | How is Christ an Head to this Body? |
A51837 | How is it a part or fruit of Redemption? |
A51837 | How was he the first- born? |
A51837 | If God be your God, why should you be troubled?'' |
A51837 | If he were not perswaded of it, would he say to Christ, My Lord, and my God? |
A51837 | If it were not by his express commandment, would he suffer such an attempt to go unpunished? |
A51837 | If the Fear of God be true Wisdom, to whom should we seek for it, but from the Wise God? |
A51837 | In the beginning; where was the Word? |
A51837 | Iohn begins his Gospel with the dignity of Christs Person, and how doth he set it forth? |
A51837 | Is there any time, or manner, or speech noted by the Evangelists when God made this Revelation? |
A51837 | Is there any work which the one doth, but the other can not do? |
A51837 | It concerns us much to see whether we be in peace or trouble, if in trouble you see the cure, if in peace the next question is, is it Gods peace? |
A51837 | It should be a check to our sluggishness, and mispense of Time: doth God now continue me? |
A51837 | Now can not he put our disordered souls in frame again? |
A51837 | Now shall we doubt of it? |
A51837 | Now this should strike our hearts? |
A51837 | Now what is a divine, and infinite Power if this be not? |
A51837 | Now who can convert himself, or chang ● his own heart? |
A51837 | Now who could do all this but God? |
A51837 | Or how could his finite Nature, without change and conversion into another Nature, be made infinite? |
A51837 | Secondly, Why the Creation of Angels is so particularly mentioned and insisted upon? |
A51837 | Shall poor worms make bold with his Laws, slight his doctrine, despise his benefits? |
A51837 | That Christ as Creator beareth such Affection to man as the work of his hands: Is it good unto thee that thou shouldst despise the work of thy hands? |
A51837 | Then the creature would be independent, and whether God will or no they would conserve their being, and then how should God Govern the World? |
A51837 | Thirdly, How is this an evidence and assurance to all good Christians, of their happy and glorious Resurrection? |
A51837 | Thirdly, Why the Creation of Angels is so particularly and expresly mentioned? |
A51837 | Thou hast layed the burden of all this people upon me, have I conceived this people? |
A51837 | To whom then will ye liken God? |
A51837 | Was it a personal priviledge peculiar to them only? |
A51837 | We are still sinning against God, either we are omiting good, or committing evil, what will we do if we be not forgiven? |
A51837 | Well then before any creature was Christ had a divine Glory, how had it he? |
A51837 | What are the parts of his headship? |
A51837 | What can the Father do which the Son can not do also? |
A51837 | What is Redemption by the blood of Christ? |
A51837 | What light can we see in a Candle when the Sun shineth in his full strength? |
A51837 | What matter is it whether I be a Dog or a Man, a Beast or an Angel, if I serve not the end for which I was made? |
A51837 | What reverence do we owe to him who is our Creator and Preserver as well as Redeemer? |
A51837 | What shall I say? |
A51837 | What this Reconciliation is? |
A51837 | When did he make the angels? |
A51837 | When he made the Angels? |
A51837 | Who can interpret these speeches and A ● ● ributes, but of one who is God- Man? |
A51837 | Why this Excellency of our Redeemer should be so deeply impressed upon our minds and hearts? |
A51837 | Why this should be much upon our minds and hearts? |
A51837 | Will Christ fail us? |
A51837 | You glory in your Riches, and preeminence now, but how long will you do so? |
A51837 | Your own Resurrection, what may facilitate our belief and hope of it? |
A51837 | and to raise men to those inclinations, and affections to which nature is an utter stranger? |
A51837 | by the Creation of the World, by the Eternal Word; and what he saith, is an answer to these questions, When was the Word? |
A51837 | can Ministers Preach, Print, too much of them? |
A51837 | can private Christian Hear, Read, Meditate too much of them? |
A51837 | containing the very vitals of Gospel Revelation? |
A51837 | he did not answer as Iacob did to Rachel,( when she said, Give me children or I dye) Am I in the place of God? |
A51837 | of a very sublime nature? |
A51837 | or Abraham see him? |
A51837 | or can not God govern the World without countenancing such a deceit? |
A51837 | or how are we interessed in it? |
A51837 | or is it possible that such Holy persons as our Lord Jesus and his Apostles were, could be guilty of such an Imposture? |
A51837 | or what likeness will ye compare unto him? |
A51837 | the first- fruits? |
A51837 | the first- raised from the Dead? |
A51837 | to have a Divine Nature put into us? |
A51837 | to what end and purpose? |
A51837 | was he not still the Image of God in our nature? |
A51837 | what is there among all the Creatures that can be like such an infinite and almighty essense? |
A51837 | what shall we do? |
A51837 | when he sitteth at the right hand of God, till he hath made his ● oes his Footstool? |
A51837 | who shall make us of unclean to become pure and holy? |
A51837 | with God; what was the Word? |
A51837 | would he witness from Heaven this is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased? |
A51837 | 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, what then shall we understand by things in heaven? |
A38033 | 11? |
A38033 | 13. which are spoken of the general Resurrection at the last day? |
A38033 | 15 But could he thus speak if the Racovian Position be true, that the Punishment allotted to the wicked at the last day is their Utter Dissolution? |
A38033 | 21. and not acknowledg this? |
A38033 | 5. and can any but Volkelius imagine that* this Form of Speech signifies that they shall be punished, if they be guilty of such and such Crimes? |
A38033 | And can he do so if they that have done all the Mischief imaginable to others, shall feel none themselves here or hereafter? |
A38033 | And do we question then whether there will be this Judicial Action, which we properly call Judging or Trying? |
A38033 | And if they be not deeply concerned for that which is their Darling Point, what can we think of them as to the rest? |
A38033 | And is not the same Atheistick Tang discernible in their denying God''s Foreknowledge of future Contingencies? |
A38033 | And must it not be the same if it be Annihilation? |
A38033 | And now who would not think that Paedobaptism were wholly discarded by the Socinians, and that they can not with a safe Conscience allow of it? |
A38033 | And shall we silently and tamely permit this? |
A38033 | And there is an Inward one, but what is that? |
A38033 | And what is the reason? |
A38033 | And what saith their famous Master? |
A38033 | And who could expect any other thing? |
A38033 | And who will not add, that this is the high Road to Atheism? |
A38033 | And why then do the persons I am speaking of, whilst they follow the Example of the Romanists, seem to condemn them? |
A38033 | Are these the men that talk and write against the Superstition and Idolatry of the Church of Rome as well as that of Pagans? |
A38033 | Are they not hereby confirm''d in their dislike and contempt of what is Sacred? |
A38033 | Are they not to be deem''d very slippery Gentlemen when they thus say, and unsay? |
A38033 | Are we not sure that there are some Irish as well as English ingaged in the service? |
A38033 | Bold strike in with this Company, and vote this Writer to be the Christianissimo( next to LOUIS) of this Age? |
A38033 | But are the English Socinians of this mind? |
A38033 | But are the English and Modern Gentlemen of the same opinion? |
A38033 | But can we be so uncharitable as to think that the Unitarians of our times are guilty of this? |
A38033 | But have they nothing to reply? |
A38033 | But how can he do this if he hath no knwledg of them? |
A38033 | But how can they deny God''s Prescience of Futurities when it is made the Peculiar Character of the Deity? |
A38033 | But how derogatory is it to the Excellent and Perfect Nature of the Deity? |
A38033 | But how do our late Penmen approve of this? |
A38033 | But shall we believe the Racovian Catechism or St. Paul''s words? |
A38033 | But they alledg another Text, What and if ye shall see the Son of Man ascended up where he was before? |
A38033 | But what can be more contrary to those discoveries which are made to us in the Sacred and Inspired Writings? |
A38033 | But what if this Fable be in Scripture? |
A38033 | But what then? |
A38033 | But when this writer saith these men of Art are in an Evil Conspiracy, what is the meaning of that? |
A38033 | But who are these Men of Art? |
A38033 | But would you know what is the true reason of their slighting and undervaluing this Royal Penman who dictated all by an Infallible Spirit? |
A38033 | Can his Care and Providence be exercised about them, and yet he be wholly Ignorant of them? |
A38033 | Can the condition of some persons be more tolerable than that of others, if their Punishment be the very Same? |
A38033 | Can we think it is not necessarily included, though it be not expressed? |
A38033 | Can we think then that the Gospel of St. John was writ against Cerinthus, and yet that Cerinthus writ it? |
A38033 | Do not these men talk like Infidels? |
A38033 | Doth the Great Ruler of the world shew himself Just if they be neither punish''d in this life( as often it happens) nor in another? |
A38033 | Have there not been seen strange Outlandish Books at the Press of late? |
A38033 | How few are there at this day that can endure sound doctrine? |
A38033 | How high an affront is this to the Divine Majesty, that he should allow and approve of these Impurities and Immoralities? |
A38033 | How then can it be said by these Writers that the Image of God wherein our first Parents were created did not consist in Sanctity and Righteousness? |
A38033 | How then can these men challenge the name of Christians? |
A38033 | How unreasonably then do the Socinian Writers cry out against this Just and Wise Dispensation of Heaven? |
A38033 | If their Ethicks be so depraved, what can we think of their Christianity? |
A38033 | If they shall say( and what will they not say)? |
A38033 | If this in them was counted an approach to Atheism, why may it not be reckon''d as such in the persons I am speaking of? |
A38033 | In a word, can it be thought that they speak and think of God as if they had a real belief of him? |
A38033 | In short, shall they neither be punish''d here, nor hereafter? |
A38033 | Is it not said, he will bring every work into Judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil? |
A38033 | Is not Crellius''s Stock somewhere harbour''d among them? |
A38033 | Is not here again a plain siding with the Roman Doctors, and their Device of Merit and Perfection? |
A38033 | Is not here an Example set them for this purpose, and do we not see it daily followed? |
A38033 | Is not here then 〈 ◊ 〉 great defect of Religious Principles? |
A38033 | Is not the Transaction of the Last day represented to us as a Formal Judiciary Process? |
A38033 | Is there not need of the inward gift of the Holy Spirit that we may believe the Gospel? |
A38033 | Is this the Language of one that hath a due respect and reverence for the Scriptures? |
A38033 | Likewise, who sees not that the Providence of God extends it self to this sort of future actions and occurrences? |
A38033 | May we not suspect some Transylvanians and Polanders employ''d in the work lately? |
A38033 | Must they only be deprived of their beings, and at the same time of the sense of all that is painful or hurtful? |
A38033 | Need I now come with my old Charge? |
A38033 | Now, will not any rational and considerate man infer hence that our English Socinians are very cold and unconcerned in their Religion? |
A38033 | Or is this all their Punishment, not to suffer any? |
A38033 | Or, can they be Infallible, and yet Err? |
A38033 | Shall not the Judg of all the World do right? |
A38033 | Shall these men then be call''d Rational( tho I know none call them so but themselves and their Admirers) who assert the contrary? |
A38033 | Shall we then think it impossible for him to resuscitate the same body, though we should grant it to have been for a time annihilated? |
A38033 | Take away this, and what a Damp is there to Vertue and Religion? |
A38033 | Take it thus with the preceding verse, which will lead us to the true sense of it, Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? |
A38033 | That this is the will of God we learn from the Sacred Writ: and where can it be learnt but there? |
A38033 | This is the Divinity of the Socinians, and who can expect any Moral Truths from them when they discourse after this manner? |
A38033 | To what end and purpose do Reprobates rise again, and are brought to Judgment, if there shall immediately follow an utter Extinction of them? |
A38033 | What is this but bringing down this Inspit''d Author to the same level with Plato and Seneca, or any other honest Moralist? |
A38033 | What means this giving and delivering up the dead in those places, unless the very same bodies that fell are to rise? |
A38033 | What shall we think of these Socinian Writers that discourse after this rate? |
A38033 | What strange Contradiction is this, to reckon our Saviour as a Fictitious God, and yet to pretend to venerate him as a True one? |
A38033 | What therefore is it that these men will not say or do, if they have a mind to it? |
A38033 | What think you of those words of the ‖ Ring- leader of the Party? |
A38033 | What will the Impious Despisers of Religion, what will the Atheists say to this? |
A38033 | Whence then have these Men Authority to suffer the observation of the Lord''s day, since they themselves vouch the utter Abolishing of it? |
A38033 | Where then is their Infallibility, which hath been owned by all Christian Churches? |
A38033 | Whereupon I ask him, is this belief necessary to make a Man a Christian, or not? |
A38033 | Whither shall I go from thy Spirit? |
A38033 | Who but Faustus Socinus would have believ''d this? |
A38033 | Who can read that remarkable passage of the Psalmist, and not believe this? |
A38033 | Who knows where to have this People? |
A38033 | Who will not say( and that on just grounds) that here is more than a Vergency to that cursed genius which I have before mention''d? |
A38033 | Why is this said but to shake the belief of the Soul''s Immortality, and to make men stagger about this Important Point? |
A38033 | Why then are we nice in distinguishing, when they are not differenc''d as to their work and design? |
A38033 | Would not a Thinking Man be induced to believe that they are at the bottom Favourers of the Pontifician Interest? |
A38033 | Would you know the Reason of it? |
A38033 | and who but a Well- willer to Atheism would have broach''d it? |
A38033 | and yet will there be no Judging? |
A38033 | how can it with truth be said by them that there was no Positive Moral Goodness and Rectitude in them? |
A38033 | i ● … not here a demonstration of the Impio ● … Disposition of their Minds? |
A38033 | if these Fundamental Principles be overthrown, what a wretched state will Religion and the Professors of it be reduced to? |
A38033 | must it therefore be counted Unreasonable and Incredible? |
A38033 | or whither shall I flee from thy presence? |
A38033 | when they vouch the most Immoral actions to have been lawful all the time till our Saviour''s coming? |
A38033 | where is the head that hath no Chimaera''s in it? |
A50867 | & c. But I ask, How does that appear? |
A50867 | 15. allow them to be clear Truths? |
A50867 | 31. he mentions only these? |
A50867 | 32. and other places of Scripture? |
A50867 | 36, 37, 38, 39, 40? |
A50867 | 6. doth he not plainly imply, that there is a Knowledge less certain? |
A50867 | 62. in these I am; is an Answer only to this Question, Art thou then the Son of God? |
A50867 | 7. that they shall be condemn''d only for working Iniquity, and not for Unbelief? |
A50867 | Again, Where was there any such Code that Mankind might have recourse to as their unerring Rule, before our Saviour''s time? |
A50867 | Also, how can he say as he doth, that Vice and Blame every where go together? |
A50867 | And after all, what is this to us who live now? |
A50867 | And can they be clear Truths, and yet not certain? |
A50867 | And can we not conceive an Image that doth not include Matter? |
A50867 | And doth he not also repeat it, When this corruptible,& c.? |
A50867 | And is it not as clear from hence as any thing possibly can be, that they had some Principles or Communes notitiae written in their Hearts? |
A50867 | And may we not likewise ask him where it is, that the Lord Herbert mentions Innate Principles or Innate Impressions? |
A50867 | And when Pilate ask''d him, whether he was a King? |
A50867 | Are all that call themselves Christians, agreed as to all the other Advantages which he mentions? |
A50867 | As there was a time before the Son of God was incarnate or cloath''d with Flesh, so hath he after his Incarnation ceas''d to be cloath''d with it? |
A50867 | Besides, how can it be worth the while to enquire after the Rule of reputed Vertue? |
A50867 | But I ask, How had it been shewn? |
A50867 | But afterwards he proposes the Question, Whether these Americans liv''d without any Religion? |
A50867 | But against whom doth he say this? |
A50867 | But how appears it that he is call''d so as Man? |
A50867 | But how doth he prove that it denoted the Person of our Saviour as a proper Name? |
A50867 | But how will he hence make good this Inference, Therefore, of these two, Believing and Repenting, one alone is oft put for both? |
A50867 | But in what Words doth the Apostle appeal to common Repute? |
A50867 | But now what would he gather from this? |
A50867 | But will he hold to this, that St. John knew nothing else requir''d to be believ''d, and admit of no Limitation, or Exception? |
A50867 | Can there be an universal Consent, when besides particular Persons, there are whole Nations that do not consent? |
A50867 | Certainty, doth not perfectly agree to them? |
A50867 | Dei, l. 19. c. 1. speak of two hundred eighty eight Sects or several Opinions concerning it? |
A50867 | Did he not know that it was necessary to believe One Only True God? |
A50867 | Did he not know that it was necessary to believe, that God rais''d the Lord Jesus from the dead? |
A50867 | Doth this, that it is the best Worship of God, amount to no more than this, that God is pleased with it? |
A50867 | For why may we not argue as strongly for the universal Pastorship from the latter Words, as from the former? |
A50867 | He says he does by no means deny it, but does he believe it? |
A50867 | How appears it that these are Solomon''s Words, and not the Sayings of others, which Solomon only repeats? |
A50867 | How knows he, that there are not some other Epistles which were not written after twenty years after Christ''s Ascension? |
A50867 | How was this executed? |
A50867 | I die daily, may we not suppose that he had respect to the Afflictions and Sufferings that came daily upon him for the sake of Christ? |
A50867 | I would ask him, Whether the Jews understood not this Appellation, the Son of God, so as that it denoted the Person so call''d to be God? |
A50867 | IT will possibly he ask''d, What Advantage have we by Jesus Christ? |
A50867 | If he do not deny it, why doth he dispute so earnestly against it? |
A50867 | If he thought this a sufficient Answer to others, why should it not be a sufficient Answer to him? |
A50867 | If they had not understood that by owning himself to be the Son of God he had made himself God, how could they say that he blasphem''d? |
A50867 | If this was the true Reason, Why did it not restrain him from mentioning other things wherein he, and some that are called Christians, do not agree? |
A50867 | If thou thinkest that the whole Church was built upon Peter alone, what wilt thou say of John the Son of Thunder, and every one of the Apostles? |
A50867 | Is it his Meaning, that the eternal Son of God, the second Person in the Trinity, was cloath''d with Flesh? |
A50867 | Is it probable that Solomon would affirm absolutely, as his own Sense, that Man hath no Pre- eminence above a Beast? |
A50867 | Is it then in the Words, whatsoever is of good Report, that he appeals to it? |
A50867 | Is not the Word Death taken in this Sense in other places of Scripture? |
A50867 | It may be enquir''d also, what he means by that Expression, Whilst cloathed in Flesh? |
A50867 | Lock give of this his strange Assertion, that the fore- mention''d Proposition is of very little use in Humane Life? |
A50867 | Lock himself confute this Notion concerning the Obscurity of Words, when he faith that Christ brought Life and Immortality to light by the Gospel? |
A50867 | Lock means by the vastly greater Majority of Mankind? |
A50867 | Lock must either retract this, that''t is plain out of S. Luke that Art thou the Messiah? |
A50867 | Lock often saith they are? |
A50867 | Lock plainly makes Art thou the Son of God? |
A50867 | Lock prove that those were writ after thirty years from our Saviour''s Ascension? |
A50867 | Lock say that he was not cloath''d with it after his Resurrection? |
A50867 | Lock say that the general Resurrection is not spoken of in these Places? |
A50867 | Lock say that the points of natural Religion were so seldom controverted? |
A50867 | Lock say that there are few deprav''d to that degree as not to condemn in others the faults they themselves are guilty of? |
A50867 | Lock says that this Proposition is fit to be inculcated: But on whom is it to be inculcated? |
A50867 | Lock to this? |
A50867 | Lock too severe in pronouncing them to be of no use at all, unless the particular Measures and Bounds of all Vertues and Vices were innate Principles? |
A50867 | Lock when he says, The Son of God was cloath''d with flesh? |
A50867 | Lock''s Mind in thinking, are they material? |
A50867 | May not this be comprehended under the word Death, Gen. 2.? |
A50867 | Might he not call him the Image of the invisible God, as God; and the first- born of every Creature, as Man? |
A50867 | Must it not be a most manifest wrong Judgment that does not presently see to which side in this Case the Preference is to be given? |
A50867 | No man will say that Art thou the Christ? |
A50867 | Now I ask, What is it that is rais''d in Incorruption, in Glory, in Power, and a Spiritual Body? |
A50867 | Or is Creeds put for Creed by the Mistake of the Press? |
A50867 | Or why are the Rewards of another Life of weight enough to determine the Choice against the Pleasures of this, but because they are the greater Good? |
A50867 | Section? |
A50867 | Shall we dare to say that the Gates of Hell could not prevail against St. Peter only, but could prevail against the rest? |
A50867 | Should it be put into Form, how strangely would it look? |
A50867 | So as to Man''s chief Good or Happiness, were there no Controversies, no diversity of Opinions, about that? |
A50867 | THE Faith for which God justified Abraham, what was it? |
A50867 | The Apostles were to teach adult Persons before they baptiz''d them; and what were they to teach them? |
A50867 | There he allows this Proposition to be a clear Truth; but how could he pronounce it to be a clear Truth, if he did not understand the Terms of it? |
A50867 | They had a Belief of the Messiah to come? |
A50867 | They may perhaps also ask, Whether all that do not actually oppose the Being of a God, or not actually disbelieve it, do consent to it? |
A50867 | Were not the several Sects of Philosophers divided about these things as well as about others? |
A50867 | What can be more plain? |
A50867 | What can be more plain? |
A50867 | What is this, upon this Rock I will build my Church? |
A50867 | What says he in his Third Letter to this? |
A50867 | What thinks he of a Death of Afflictions, outward Sufferings and Calamities? |
A50867 | When S. Paul says of himself, that he was in Deaths oft, may we not interpret it in Sufferings oft? |
A50867 | When shall the Saviour the Lord Christ effect this wonderful Change, that our vile Body shall be made conformable to his glorious Body? |
A50867 | Whether he were the Messiah? |
A50867 | Which made them all cry out, Art thou then the Son of God? |
A50867 | Why doth he endeavour, to the utmost of his Power, to baffle the Arguments that are urged for the Proof of it? |
A50867 | Why then doth he that himself, which he condemns in others? |
A50867 | Will he say then, that we owe them to the Superstition of a Nurse, or the Authority of an Old Woman, or our Educations? |
A50867 | Will he say, that Men shall not be condemn''d for their Impenitence? |
A50867 | Withal, how appears it, that one of them alone is oft put for both? |
A50867 | Yea, doth not our Saviour himself, and likewise the Apostles, urge several Duties in the Words of the Old Testament, and making use of its Authority? |
A50867 | You will say, Is it not impossible to admit of the making any thing out of nothing, since we can not possibly conceive it? |
A50867 | and Art thou the Messiah? |
A50867 | and Art thou the Son of God? |
A50867 | and Art thou the Son of God? |
A50867 | and not to that other, Art thou the Messiah? |
A50867 | and, Art thou the Messiah? |
A50867 | behold ye have now heard his Blasphemy? |
A50867 | i. e. Dost thou then own thy self to be the Messiah? |
A50867 | i. e. Dost thou then own thy self to be the Messiah? |
A50867 | or if it did, doth that prove that it is us''d as a proper Name in those places of the Acts? |
A50867 | p. 29. he seems to complain of those that blam''d him for contending for one Article? |
A50867 | take notice of the various Sentiments about it? |
A50867 | that it is nothing else but our Opinion,& c.? |
A50867 | who shall deliver me?) |
A49796 | 1. Who spake? |
A49796 | 25? |
A49796 | 4. Who made them by him? |
A49796 | All these significations are here intended: But to whom is he so convenient, profitable, necessary? |
A49796 | And again they said, Now therefore why should we dy? |
A49796 | And again, The Cup which my Father hath give ● me, shall I not drink it? |
A49796 | And how can these purge the conscience? |
A49796 | And how careful will they be in case of all means, which conduce to this perseverance? |
A49796 | And how merciful must he needs be, that was tempted himself? |
A49796 | And how much is this silly and unworthy Creature honoured? |
A49796 | And how should we? |
A49796 | And is his coming so certain, and so speedy, and hath God said so? |
A49796 | And shall he endure, and we be impatient under so light a burden? |
A49796 | And shall he, so far more excellent then we are, endure so long, so patiently, from such unworthy persons, so vile, and so much contradiction? |
A49796 | And shall it trouble us to part with that which one day, and we know not how soon, must be taken from us? |
A49796 | And shall the word of the eternal Son of God be disobeyed, and any Offender guilty in this particular escape everlasting penalties? |
A49796 | And shall we reject it? |
A49796 | And shall we so unworthy, not endure far less? |
A49796 | And that his Argument might be more forcing, he proposeth it interrogatively, To which of the Angels said he at any time? |
A49796 | And to whom sware He, that they should not enter into His Rest?] |
A49796 | And what shall I more say? |
A49796 | And where do we find political representation, for Power and Lordship signified in Scripture by such terms? |
A49796 | And why should be fear the Tryal, or, upon the Tryal, Damnation or eternal Death? |
A49796 | And why should the thoughts of bearing his Reproach torment our minds? |
A49796 | And why should this voluntary Humiliation be either any the least derogation from the Excellency of Christ? |
A49796 | And why? |
A49796 | And will any man imagine that the Apostle in so few words so full of different matter would tautologize? |
A49796 | Are our Sufferings comparable to his? |
A49796 | Are we stronger then He? |
A49796 | But by what Warrant, and according to what Rule, did these Priest receive Tythes of their Brethren? |
A49796 | But how and by what was this signified? |
A49796 | But how did Isaac thus bless his Sons? |
A49796 | But how guilty are we of neglect? |
A49796 | But if Christ did not glorify himself, and take upon him to be a Priest, how did he acquire his Sacerdotal Power? |
A49796 | But suppose it should signify sometimes, ● ay often, to take away; doth it follow from thence that therefore it must so signify here? |
A49796 | But suppose we come, what may we expect, or what shall we receive? |
A49796 | But the Question is, To whom he bowed? |
A49796 | But thirdly, What Covenant is this? |
A49796 | But thirdly, Why is this Clause added and inserted? |
A49796 | But what are these Duties exhorted unto? |
A49796 | But what kind of Comparison is this? |
A49796 | But what might be the cause of this dulness? |
A49796 | But what moved him to do this? |
A49796 | But what was the issue of this Promise in respect of the Israelites? |
A49796 | But what? |
A49796 | But who is this High- Priest? |
A49796 | But why may i ● not be an Hebraism? |
A49796 | But with whom was He grieved forty years? |
A49796 | But, how great is our Ignorance of these things? |
A49796 | By what was this Doctrine confirmed? |
A49796 | By whom He spake? |
A49796 | By whom did he speak then unto them? |
A49796 | By whom they were made? |
A49796 | By whom was it confirmed? |
A49796 | Could not God have raised a Priest of that Order far more excellent than Aaron? |
A49796 | David might well admite and say, Lord, What is man, that thou takest knowledg of him? |
A49796 | Doth God any thing in vain? |
A49796 | Doth he desire a Covenant? |
A49796 | Doth he desire a Mediator of this Covenant? |
A49796 | Doth he desire an High- Priest? |
A49796 | Doth he desire his Ministry in Heaven? |
A49796 | Every exhortation implies the desire of the Oratour, or party exhorting; otherwise, why doth he perswade? |
A49796 | For it might be said, What Reason, Suasive, Motive, may be given, why we should be so careful to perform this Duty? |
A49796 | For shall we provoke the Lord to jealousy? |
A49796 | For to which of the Angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? |
A49796 | For what place doth take or affect us more than that of our Birth, Inheritance, Kindred? |
A49796 | For when we have sinned, what should we do, if we had not him our righteous Advocate and Propitiatour with his Father? |
A49796 | For who shall lay any thing to the charge of God''s Elect? |
A49796 | For who, or what can separate us from his love in Christ? |
A49796 | For, saith he, How then shall the Scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be? |
A49796 | For, to which of the Angels said he? |
A49796 | For, what need terrify or trouble them, or shake their hearts, when God hath assured them of eternal life? |
A49796 | Hath Christian Religion no such thing? |
A49796 | Here it''s expressed Interrogatively; For what Son is there whom the Father chasteneth not? |
A49796 | How deeply is he engaged and obliged to eternal gratitude and obedience? |
A49796 | How justly may God charge the Blood of the Souls of our Apostate Brethren upon us? |
A49796 | How long will my Saviour delay his Coming? |
A49796 | How much mischief was done to the Church by Simon Magus, Cerinthus, Ebion, Valentius, and other Hereticks? |
A49796 | How shall we escape? |
A49796 | How unlike unto Christ are all such, who presume of their own merit, and despise such as Christ hath called? |
A49796 | How unwilling are they to part with them? |
A49796 | I see the place of mine eternal Rest afar off, when shall I come near and enter and enjoy my God for ever? |
A49796 | If God had given this Command, and Christ had never obeyed it; how could it have sanctified us? |
A49796 | If Men will believe Men swearing; how much more should we believe and rest satisfied in the Oath of God? |
A49796 | If you endure Chastening, God dealeth with you as with Sons; for, what Son is there whom the Father chasteneth not? |
A49796 | In the words, four things are to be considered: 1. Who spake? |
A49796 | Is it singular in this particular? |
A49796 | It is God that justifirth: Who is he that condemneth? |
A49796 | It might be said, If they were so poor, imperfect, and ineffectual, why were they observed? |
A49796 | Let not any slatter themselves, and think to escape: For how shall we escape, if we neglect,& c? |
A49796 | Not long before his Death, he said, Now my Soul is troubled, and what shall I say? |
A49796 | Of which it might be said, that it''s a matter not of Joy but Grief, and how then can it proceed from Love, and be any wayes beneficial? |
A49796 | Seeing it''s not[ expiatorium& redemtorium], as they grant it is not, How should it be the same? |
A49796 | Shall I never see an end of this Battel, and obtain a final Victory, and so triumph for ever? |
A49796 | Shall the word of Angels transgressed be so severely punished? |
A49796 | Shall we come out of Aegypt, and come so near the borders of the heavenly Canaan, and turn back? |
A49796 | Shall we sin against so great a Majesty, so great a Mercy? |
A49796 | So that for Christ to be heard, was for Christ to be delivered: But what was he delivered from? |
A49796 | Some read them Interrogatively, For then should they not have ceased? |
A49796 | The Answer follows, though proposed, as the former, Interrogatively in these words, But to them that believed not?] |
A49796 | The Expression seems to be taken from the words of the Prophet, Who are these that fly as a Cloud, and as Doves to their Windows? |
A49796 | The Question is, But with whom was He grieved forty years? |
A49796 | The Saints of God sometimes will cry out, Oh when shall these Labours, these Difficulties, these Sufferings of ours have an end? |
A49796 | The Sin is the neglect of the Gospel: The punishment is implyed in the words How shall we escape? |
A49796 | The first is, Whether it be necessary and essential to a Priest to have sins of his own, for which he must offer? |
A49796 | The great doubt is, Whether of these is here intended? |
A49796 | Therefore sung the Psalmist, Why leap ye, ye high Hills? |
A49796 | Therefore we must remember both the advice which Christ gives us, when he saith unto us, Take ● ● thought, saying, What shall we ent? |
A49796 | These Fathers in particular were those who sojourned in Aegypt, 430 years after the Promise was made to Abraham, which informs us? |
A49796 | These words may seem to give a Reason, why they sought a heavenly Country: And why? |
A49796 | They did hear it; for how should they hear without a Preacher? |
A49796 | They give a reason why Christ was lower then the Angels, and suffered Death: And why? |
A49796 | They were come to God the Judge of all: What is the Body without an Head? |
A49796 | This is not only obscure, but, if well examined, false: For what is it[ of its own nature to procure?] |
A49796 | This is the Question, To whom did God thus swear? |
A49796 | To examine and thoroughly search our hearts, that we may more clearly understand our spiritual condition, Whether it be good or bad? |
A49796 | To whom He spake? |
A49796 | To whom did He speak? |
A49796 | To whom? |
A49796 | Was not the High Priest a Priest before he entred with the expiatory blood into the holy Place? |
A49796 | What can Man desire which he shall not have? |
A49796 | What can he want which God hath not provided for him? |
A49796 | What more could be done? |
A49796 | What peace is? |
A49796 | What? |
A49796 | When He spake? |
A49796 | When did God speak to the Children? |
A49796 | When will he come in the Clouds of Heaven, with all his holy Angels? |
A49796 | Where are our Bowels of Compassion? |
A49796 | Where is our Christian Charity? |
A49796 | Whether our Faith be sincere, and our Profession real or no? |
A49796 | Whether we tend unto Perdition or Salvation? |
A49796 | Why by his own blood? |
A49796 | Wretches? |
A49796 | Yet both words signify, they had no fixed place of habitation amongst men: But then it might be said, Where did they wander? |
A49796 | Yet if any ask, When shall we receive the Reward? |
A49796 | Yet it may be said, What was this to these Hebrews? |
A49796 | Yet why might he not be called after the Order of Aaron? |
A49796 | Yet, to what end must they remember all this? |
A49796 | and how much is his estate advanced by this Relation? |
A49796 | and how should they hear without a Preacher? |
A49796 | and how? |
A49796 | and shall no Offender escape? |
A49796 | and to leave that place which suddenly must be left? |
A49796 | and when was he made? |
A49796 | and who makes it, and where is it made? |
A49796 | and who were those Israelies, who, by this Oath, were absolutely debarred of all entrance into that Land? |
A49796 | are ye able to conquer Death, turn Mortality into Eternity, and Earth into Heaven? |
A49796 | bring upon your selves eternal and unavoidable misery? |
A49796 | did Christ fear Death? |
A49796 | how careless are we of this work? |
A49796 | how languishing our Hopes? |
A49796 | how long will it be before, our Saviour will come to Reward us? |
A49796 | how weak our Faith? |
A49796 | or refuse to go forward? |
A49796 | or seem foolishness to the Gentiles? |
A49796 | or stumbling- block unto the Jew? |
A49796 | or the Son of man, that thou makest account of him? |
A49796 | or what shall we drink? |
A49796 | or wherewith shall we be clothed? |
A49796 | or, What is it to us? |
A49796 | reject the tender of Salvation? |
A49796 | was it not with them who had sinned, whose Carkasses fell in the Wilderness?] |
A49796 | what more could the Heirs of Promise desire? |
A49796 | why doth he exhort? |
A49796 | will you despise his sweetest mercy? |
A59853 | A whole Divinity made up of Three partial and incomplete Divinities? |
A59853 | And are they not Three who have all the Perfections of the Divine Nature? |
A59853 | And does not the Scripture, do not all Trinitarians, with the whole Catholick Church, own this? |
A59853 | And if this had not been the belief of the Catholick Church, what meant their Zeal against this Heresy? |
A59853 | And must this One Undivided Monad be in Three separate Localities, because it subsists in three distinct Persons? |
A59853 | And what is the Cons ● quence of this? |
A59853 | And what is there unintelligible in all this? |
A59853 | And what is to be done now? |
A59853 | And when the Arians objected against our Saviour''s saying, I am in the Father, and the Father in me; How can this be in that, and that in this? |
A59853 | And why may not Number then belong to the Divinity, though it be not quantum, have no Predicamental, that is, Corporeal Quantity? |
A59853 | And will any Trinitarian deny, That the Father is, the Son is, and the Holy Ghost is? |
A59853 | And yet I dare appeal to any man of a free and unbiass''d Reason in this Cause, What is that Natural Notion we have of One God? |
A59853 | Are Spirits united by Juxta- position of Parts, or Penetration of Dimensions? |
A59853 | Are there then as many peculiar Manners and Modes of Subsistence, as there are, or ever have been, or ever shall be, distinct Persons in the World? |
A59853 | But after all, Do these Fathers deny, that the Divine Nature is One Individual Nature? |
A59853 | But at this rate, what Divinity do we leave for the Son, and the Holy Spirit? |
A59853 | But ca n''t there be more than one of these Eternal, infinitely Wise, infinitely Good, and Omnipotent Natures? |
A59853 | But do not all Catholick Christians own, That there is but One Infinite, Inseparable, Undivided Nature, in Three Persons? |
A59853 | But does this make God True and Perfect Man? |
A59853 | But how can this be, if Person and Essence, Suppositum and Nature be the same, as it is in God? |
A59853 | But how can we learn God''s Love and Good Will to Mankind, from this Doctrine, if it be not true? |
A59853 | But how will this agree with the Notion of One Divinity, or One Individual Divine Nature? |
A59853 | But if God redeems us by a Man, however he be enabled by a Divine Power, Why is he said to give his Son for us? |
A59853 | But in good earnest, does any sober Christian want an Answer to this Argument? |
A59853 | But in what sense then can we say, That the Trinity is One God, or that Three Persons are One God? |
A59853 | But is not this a kind of Sabellian Composition of a God? |
A59853 | But now will any Catholick Christian say, that thus it is in the Ever Blessed Trinity? |
A59853 | But still what is all this to the Unity of God? |
A59853 | But suppose they could not distinguish them, does this prove that God is Incarnate in such men; or would it be a reason to worship such men as God? |
A59853 | But the Question is, In what sense the Scripture teaches that there is but One God? |
A59853 | But what becomes then of the Son, and Holy Ghost? |
A59853 | But what is this Brightness, and what is this Glory? |
A59853 | But what is this common Nature, which is seen by Reason? |
A59853 | But what possible Sense can we make of this? |
A59853 | But what room then does this leave for a Real Trinity of Persons, in this One, Simple, Uncompounded, Indivisible, Inseparable Nature? |
A59853 | But who ever thought of causes of Distinction and Unity in an Eternal Nature, which has no cause? |
A59853 | But, What it is that makes it One; or what the formal Conception of its Unity is? |
A59853 | Can Eternal Truth, and Infinite Wisdom in any thing vary from it self, to make two Eternal Truths, and Infinite Wisdoms? |
A59853 | Can any thing else give us so true and perfect a Character and Idea of each of them, as this does? |
A59853 | Can the Specifick Notional Unity of Human Nature, make three men one man, as the One common Divine Nature makes Three Persons One God? |
A59853 | Displicet cuiquam in Synodo Nicaena homousion esse susceptum? |
A59853 | Do not all the Christian Creeds teach us to profess our Faith in One God the Father, from whom the Son and the Holy Spirit receive their Godhead? |
A59853 | Do they mean, that there is but one Numerical Subsisting Nature common to all the Individuals? |
A59853 | Does the Father Will any thing? |
A59853 | Ergo inquis, das aliquam substantiam esse sermonem? |
A59853 | For what do these Fathers mean by a common Nature? |
A59853 | For what man knoweth the things of a man, but the spirit of man, which is in him? |
A59853 | For will we say, That the Trinity, or Three Persons, are but One Person? |
A59853 | Has God any Place; does he subsist in any thing but himself? |
A59853 | He must then partake of the Father: But what is that, and whence is it? |
A59853 | Here then we join issue with them, and desire them to shew us, what is impossible or contradictious in this Faith? |
A59853 | How there can be Three Incommunicable Persons, and Suppositums, and but One Nature, and that communicable to more than One? |
A59853 | Iam nunc quaeritur, quis quomodo utatur aliqua re& vocabulo ejus? |
A59853 | If I am asked not only Who but What the Three in the Ever- blessed Trinity are? |
A59853 | If the Unity of the Divine Nature be but a Notion, the Unity of God, the Unity of the Trinity, which is this One God, must be a meer Notion also? |
A59853 | If you inquire, what Spirit, and what Matter is? |
A59853 | In qua ● ffigie Dei? |
A59853 | Is it any thing more, than that there is and can be but One Eternal Self- originated Being, who is the Principle or Cause of all other Beings? |
A59853 | Is it because none is, or can be God, True and Perfect God, but he, who is God of himself, Self- originated and Unbegotten? |
A59853 | Is it such a direct Contradiction to Sense and Reason, to say, That there is alius,& alius,& alius, in the Trinity, but not aliud? |
A59853 | Is it the Son of God, that Eternal Word, which was in the beginning, was with God, and was God? |
A59853 | Is not the Son God? |
A59853 | Is not the Unity of God the fundamental Article of Natural Religion? |
A59853 | Is there any thing else which is common to them, but the Name and Nature of God? |
A59853 | Is this Extraordinary Power a Divine Subsisting Person, in the true and proper Notion of a Person? |
A59853 | Is this Extraordinary Power so united to Human Nature, as to become Man? |
A59853 | Let me then ask this plain Question: When Five hundred Men hear the same Man speak, do they all hear one and the same Voice, or Five hundred Voices? |
A59853 | Let our Socinian Adversaries tell us, what there is absurd, impossible, or contradictious in this Faith? |
A59853 | Non haben ● o autem filium cum ipse sum flius, quem ● do pater ero? |
A59853 | Now if this be true, what Apology can be made for them? |
A59853 | Now what is the meaning of this? |
A59853 | Now will any man say, That the One Divinity, or One Divine Nature, and One God, is a meer Notion? |
A59853 | Now, says he, in what Image of God, was he? |
A59853 | Or how can the Father, who is greater, be at all in the Son, who is less? |
A59853 | Or how much we must believe of them? |
A59853 | Or what wonder is it, that the Son should be in the Father, when it is written of us all, That in him we live, and move, and have our being? |
A59853 | Prolatus est Sermo Dei an non? |
A59853 | Quid agis Lot sancte? |
A59853 | Quid est enim Filius de eo quod Pater est? |
A59853 | So far he is in the right; but what is this different way? |
A59853 | That a Perfect, Living, Subsisting Image, should not be perfectly the same with its Prototype, from whom it receives its Being and Nature? |
A59853 | That the One Common Divinity is One and Common, only as One Common Humanity is, that is, that it is perfectly the same in all? |
A59853 | The Question then is, Whether we must not believe the Doctrines of the Trinity and Incarnation? |
A59853 | The short Question is this; Whether a True, Proper, Divine Person was Incarnate, in the Incarnation of Christ? |
A59853 | Then, says he, he must be the Son of God by participation; what is it then he partakes of? |
A59853 | These are two very different Questions, and of a very different consideration, What God is? |
A59853 | This sounds well; but why does he not speak out, and tell us what this Form of God is? |
A59853 | Three in One Substance, and thrice Once Substance? |
A59853 | Thus what is the Unity of Energy and Operation, but the same Conscious Will and Power acting distinctly, but inseparably in Three? |
A59853 | Vacua& inanis res est sermo De ●, qui filius dictus est, qui ipse Deus cogneminatus est? |
A59853 | Was he a Human Person; or the Person of the Son of God appearing in Human Nature? |
A59853 | Well, But is not the Father then, in his own Person, True and Perfect God, and the Son True and Perfect God, and the Holy Ghost True and Perfect God? |
A59853 | Well, but what is this Essence of a Mind, and this Unity of Essence, which makes a Mind One? |
A59853 | Well: What is necessary to be believed concerning the Trinity? |
A59853 | Well; but are there not Individual Men then, as well as a Common Nature? |
A59853 | What difference between Three Substances, and tria supposita? |
A59853 | What is it then that subsists by it self? |
A59853 | What then was Christ''s Human Nature? |
A59853 | What then was wanting to make us Human Nature a Human Person? |
A59853 | When we profess to believe that there are Three in the Unity of the Godhead the next question is, What Three they are? |
A59853 | Whether the True Divine Nature subsisting in him, a True Divine Person? |
A59853 | Will they venture to say, That it is absurd or contradictious, that God should have a Son? |
A59853 | Would not Human Nature be as perfectly the same in Three Persons or Subsistences, as the Idea of Human Nature is one and the same in Three Minds? |
A59853 | Would they have taught, That the Divinity may be numbred, and yet is without Number? |
A59853 | and Who this God is? |
A59853 | and how then is this One Individual Nature? |
A59853 | and the Spirit God? |
A59853 | but one Universal Human Nature in all the particular men in the World? |
A59853 | but, Whether the Son and Holy Ghost were truly and really distinct Persons from the Father, as the Catholick Church always believed? |
A59853 | if God have no Eternal Son, and therefore did not give his Eternal Son to become Man, and to suffer and dye for us? |
A59853 | or, How many partial Conceptions are united in One Idea? |
A59853 | that is, Have not each of these Divine Persons all the Divine Perfections included in the Notion and Idea of God? |
A59853 | thought I; How is this applicable to the Unity of God? |
A59853 | ut inanis solida,& vacuus plena,& incorporalis corporalia operatus sit? |
A59853 | whether he be Consubstantial with the Father, or have only a Nature like the Fathers, but not the same? |
A59853 | whether he be true perfect God, in opposition to the most perfect created Nature, or be only a made and Creature- God? |
A59853 | whether there were any time, the least conceivable moment before the Son was? |
A59809 | ( How comes this guilt to be finite now? |
A59809 | Agreeably to St. Chrysostoms account of the words, as they are translated also by our Author, What is that Loaf? |
A59809 | And a little before: Are we then freed from this Obedience? |
A59809 | And can the grace of God be resisted? |
A59809 | And how is it possible, they should get the Robes of Christs Righteousness, till they are married to him? |
A59809 | And is not Pardon as properly opposed to Condemnation, as Absolution is? |
A59809 | And is not that then the original signification of the Name? |
A59809 | And may he not then require the intervention of a Sacrifice, and of a very meritorious one too, to purchase and seal his Pardon to Sincers? |
A59809 | And that those glorious Discoveries, which God hath made of these Perfections in Christ, are but a metaphorical Brightness of this Glory? |
A59809 | And what our Church attributes to this Faith in the Work of Justification? |
A59809 | And where is the Sanction of it? |
A59809 | And who gave it this Sanction? |
A59809 | And will he save and reward those who do obey for their obedience? |
A59809 | As for instance, he charges my Notion of Union to Christ with disserving holiness; Why, what is my Notion of Union? |
A59809 | But Baptism makes us complete members of the Church only under the notion of Catholick visible; How comes this to pass now? |
A59809 | But I would fain know what he means by neglecting or despising the Grace of God, is it to resist the grace of God, and to make it ineffectual? |
A59809 | But does he indeed speak as he means? |
A59809 | But does not this Imputation make it ours? |
A59809 | But how does this follow? |
A59809 | But how is it said then, Srait is the gate, and narrow is the way that leadeth unto life? |
A59809 | But pray whom or what do I scorn? |
A59809 | But pray why do they think so? |
A59809 | But pray why so? |
A59809 | But pray, who taught him to oppose the Light of Nature to the Gospel of Christ? |
A59809 | But suppose that we are so charitable as to hope that God may receive them, yet how does this make them members of the Catholick visible Church? |
A59809 | But the Doctor proceeds, But may we not, notwithstanding this Command, be justified and saved without this Holiness? |
A59809 | But was not Christ personally righteous with this Righteousness? |
A59809 | But what is this Socinian Notion of Justification? |
A59809 | But what will Mr. Ferguson say, if Mr. Calvin gives the very same account of the words, which I do? |
A59809 | But who told Mr. Ferguson that Christ is not the immediate Political Head of his Church, and that therefore there must be a Vicarious Head? |
A59809 | But why so much haste of declaring? |
A59809 | But why so pray? |
A59809 | Can it be inherent in him, and he not righteous by it? |
A59809 | Can it fail of its Effect? |
A59809 | Could he with any Confidence then cry out of Persecution, when he himself hath sounded the Alarm to it? |
A59809 | Did I ever affirm, that the Death of Christ did only ratifie and confirm the Covenant? |
A59809 | Did he not frequently interpose between God and the People, and by his intercessions divert his anger from them? |
A59809 | Did he so fulfil Righteousness for us, that he himself had no interest in it? |
A59809 | Do I make any spiteful Reflections upon mens Persons? |
A59809 | Do I not every where assert that Christs Death did procure and purchase, as well as seal the Covenant of Grace? |
A59809 | Do I tell merry Tales of them? |
A59809 | Do I transprose them, or dress them up in a fools Coat to be laught at? |
A59809 | Do they believe the Church of England to be infallible? |
A59809 | Do they think it a sufficient proof of the Truth of any Doctrine, that it is the Doctrine of the Church of England? |
A59809 | Does it not as much belong to a supreme and unaccountable Judge to pardon, as to absolve? |
A59809 | Doth this Election and Redemption suppose holiness in us? |
A59809 | First, What is meant by Faith in the Merits of Christ? |
A59809 | For did I ever assert, that an External Union to the visible Church did complete and perfect our Union to Christ? |
A59809 | For what reason then shall we serve God? |
A59809 | Hast thou been a Blasphemer? |
A59809 | Hast thou been a Murderer, an Adulterer, a Thief, a Liar, a Drunkard? |
A59809 | Have you a mind to teach People such Antichristian Pride, as to go about to make themselves fit for Christ, before they will close with him? |
A59809 | He did lay sins on him; When did he lay them? |
A59809 | How come they to be translated again from Christ, and laid upon this Person? |
A59809 | How does he prove this? |
A59809 | How then are they obnoxious to the Curse of the Law? |
A59809 | How then can we answer the demands of the Law with it? |
A59809 | If there be sinfulness in them, where then is their Peace? |
A59809 | If they attribute so much to the Judgment and Authority of our Church, is it not as good in one case, as it is in another? |
A59809 | In what sense then does our Church reject good Works, and attribute our Justification to Faith alone? |
A59809 | Is any thing the less ours, because it is not originally ours, but so by Gift? |
A59809 | Is it that we should kill them, stifle the Creature, that is formed in us in the Womb? |
A59809 | Is not the Promise of Pardon purchas''d and sealed with the Blood of Christ, absolutely necessary to encourage men to be good? |
A59809 | Is there no difference between Works which are imperfectly good, and Works which have no goodness in them? |
A59809 | Is there no difference then between an imputed, and an inherent and personal Righteousness? |
A59809 | Is this a needless enquiry? |
A59809 | Is this the way to cure the world of Atheism? |
A59809 | May it not confer a right, and lay an obligation to Communion with a particular Church, when we come where it is? |
A59809 | May we not imitate that which we can not equal? |
A59809 | Methinks he should consider, whose property it is so much to wonder: But what is the reason of this wonder? |
A59809 | Mr. Shephard begins thus, In what hast thou gone beyond them that think they are rich, and want nothing, who yet are poor, and miserable, and naked? |
A59809 | Must the Conscience be set free in matters of External Order and Government, but tied up in Doctrines and Opinions? |
A59809 | Must we make our selves beautiful before we are married to Christ, or receive all our beauty from him? |
A59809 | Must we reform our Lives, and lay aside our Opposition to God, and return to our Duty and Allegeance? |
A59809 | Nay, is not this an Argument that Baptism admits them into the Church, because such persons only are subject to the Censures of it? |
A59809 | Nay, the brightness of the Glory of God, and the Image of an infinite Spirit, which hath no shape? |
A59809 | No, that he rejected before; What then? |
A59809 | Or is it without any regard to it? |
A59809 | Or must they be false, or wholly rejected, because they are not a true Medium of knowledge in that sense, wherein the Gospel of Christ is? |
A59809 | Or should they teach men to trust wholly in the righteousness of Christ, without any righteousness of their own? |
A59809 | Or that it is Fruitful, or Effective of good things unto the Persons Beloved? |
A59809 | Or that it is Unchangeable? |
A59809 | Or what occasion had I to oppose it in this place? |
A59809 | Say you so Sir? |
A59809 | Should they cry down holiness, and preach up debauchery? |
A59809 | That he, who owns the Gospel of Christ as the only true Medium of knowledge, must be supposed to reject the Light of Nature? |
A59809 | That the Apostle rejects all Works, though they are separated from the notion of Merit? |
A59809 | That they do not differ in their Natures, Acts, and Effects? |
A59809 | That we should give him to the old man to be devoured? |
A59809 | That whatever he did as a man, he did as a Mediator? |
A59809 | The Righteousness of Christ imputed to us makes us righteous as Christ is, and what need is there then of any Righteousness of our own? |
A59809 | There St. Paul enquires by what means our Father Abraham was justified before God? |
A59809 | These are broken Cisterns, and what Peace is there in them? |
A59809 | Thus Christ is called Life, and can any one be an active Creature before there be life breathed into him? |
A59809 | To prove the oneness and identity, which intervenes between Christ, and single Believers? |
A59809 | To what end hath God given us new hearts, and new natures? |
A59809 | To which the Doctor answers, That we are not so to die for any one, as Christ died for us: But what of that? |
A59809 | We are thereby made the righteousness of God in him; if we be righteousness, where is our sinfulness to be charged upon us? |
A59809 | Well, Is there an Essential Unity then here meant betwixt Christ and Believers? |
A59809 | Were there any men who taught the People that Holiness would save them without the Merits of Christ? |
A59809 | What account will he now give of Renouncing the Communion of this Church? |
A59809 | What are those who partake of it? |
A59809 | What has he to object against this? |
A59809 | What is our finite guilt before it? |
A59809 | What subtilty is required in Children to understand these deep Points, and to comprehend the subtil and artificial Schemes of Orthodoxy? |
A59809 | What? |
A59809 | Where is this Law? |
A59809 | Whether Good Works may be said to be necessary to Justification or Salvation? |
A59809 | Who can say I have washed my hands? |
A59809 | Why could not he by all, understand all men of any knowledge and skill in the use of words, which some, and a great many, have not? |
A59809 | Why do they renounce Communion with us? |
A59809 | Why does he not correct the whole Gospel, the language of which is, He that continueth to the end shall be saved? |
A59809 | Why does not our Author correct our Saviour, for telling those new Converts, If ye continue in my words, then shall ye be my Disciples indeed? |
A59809 | Why then I have contradicted the Doctrine to which I have subscribed; if I have done so, it is very ill done of me, but what then? |
A59809 | Why then do they reject any of the Articles of our Church? |
A59809 | Why then this is a sufficient Answer to my Book: But I pray why so? |
A59809 | Why then, to place Justification in pardon of sin, is to make it not a proper but metaphorical Justification; and what then? |
A59809 | Will nothing satisfie the Law but perfect and unsinning Obedience? |
A59809 | Will the Father Elect, and the Son Redeem none but those who are holy, and reject and reprobate all others? |
A59809 | Would not our Author then change his Note, and repent of such Intimations as these? |
A59809 | Yes, for this is not a Gospel- Holiness, which is wholly owing to the Divine Grace: But does the efficient cause then constitute the nature of things? |
A59809 | Yes; But how far? |
A59809 | or that the Goodness of God confers an antecedent title on Sinners to Grace and Pardon? |
A59809 | will he damn those, who do not obey, for their disobedience? |
A62735 | ? |
A62735 | Adam why Created out of Paradise, and after brought in? |
A62735 | Alioqui quid erat opus, soris videre carnem,& carnis audire sermones, si intus ● Spriritu su rint instructi perfectè de omnibus? |
A62735 | And had not Abraham reason to be glad? |
A62735 | And had not Christ suffered, and so entred into Glory, how could he have obtained the Kingdom promised of his Father? |
A62735 | And if Socinus doth not ground his own Hypothesis upon Scripture, wherefore doth he call for Scripture, Scripture? |
A62735 | And if so, why did he now? |
A62735 | And if you ask me, what could they do? |
A62735 | And less reason to be given why or how it should be first devised? |
A62735 | And was not Abraham taught as much as this,( do you think?) |
A62735 | And was not this the Question put to Iohn the Baptist, Art thou that Prophet, or do we expect another? |
A62735 | And was that possible without hope? |
A62735 | And what hath he deserved of the truth, that we( that revere the Scripture indeed) should defer so much authority to him? |
A62735 | And when he was come, who should be enquired of but the Pharisees whether he was indeed the Christ, or no? |
A62735 | And whereas she had this heavy sentence from the Lord? |
A62735 | And who was ever set up for an Idol, but the worst of men? |
A62735 | And why must the Law be needs ordained in the hand of such an one? |
A62735 | And, said not God unto Iacob, Go up to Bethel, and dwell there, and make there an Altar unto God? |
A62735 | Annon fatis est, D ● ● n c ● n ● la regere perpetu ●, ac g ● b ● ● nare, n ● ● ● pso plan ● nelente quidquam fieri posse? |
A62735 | BUT here the Objectors may close again, and say, Is there( then) no priviledge or no advantage by the Gospel? |
A62735 | But against this that passage seems to make, that when God demanded of Cain, Where is Abel thy Brother? |
A62735 | But from which of the first reasons( however over- ruled) should it proceed? |
A62735 | But how a Bridle? |
A62735 | But how should these know the difference of their acceptations? |
A62735 | But if ten Tribes give eleven hundred thousand, what shall two Tribes give at the same proportion? |
A62735 | But if the Masters were indifferently such( as I have described) what think you were the Men? |
A62735 | But if they did this to acknowledge the right of the Lord of life and death only, why did they take his right from him? |
A62735 | But let us hear what they say now to this instance of Cain and Abel? |
A62735 | But now She puts Hagar to him, as if it were on purpose to restrain his choice of any other: What shall He do? |
A62735 | But what have we to say at last, that all the Sons of Iacob( his Concubines and all) should be taken in, and never an one rejected? |
A62735 | But what saith the Scripture? |
A62735 | But what shall they dig, or cut withal? |
A62735 | But what should they do at last? |
A62735 | But what though? |
A62735 | But whither must he go? |
A62735 | But why Ashes? |
A62735 | But why? |
A62735 | But, first, What kind of arguing is this? |
A62735 | Certainly, to rise: but if so, must it not be by a right repentance? |
A62735 | Could he have any private Altar? |
A62735 | Could the Son of man then( any more than at his second Coming) find faith upon the Earth? |
A62735 | Could they bring enough? |
A62735 | Cui ● nim usui, obsecro, is ● a praenotio esset? |
A62735 | Did ever Ishmael or Esau play such pranks as some of these? |
A62735 | Did he think it unlawful to take a Concubine? |
A62735 | Dix illud inter homines eruditissimos disceptalum est, quid de summo salutis auspice speraverit olim, credidertive antiquior illa Hebraeorum Natio? |
A62735 | Do we not all believe the Gospel, not knowing how much may be contained in it? |
A62735 | Do we not engage ourselves in Baptism to obey, not knowing what shall be required of us? |
A62735 | Do we not see that he alledgeth Scripture only to baulk us, and admitteth it not to inform himself? |
A62735 | Does not many a Murtherer escape by flying amongst men, and hiding himself in the Crowd? |
A62735 | Doth God abhor incest and adultery, and yet suffer the choicest Blessings of all to descend to their Issue? |
A62735 | For can not God be known but by faith? |
A62735 | For if Abel sacrificed in obedience to some Law of God, what shall we judge of Cain? |
A62735 | For if had been otherwise, what should David have done, when he was convicted by the Prophet of his two great sins, of murder and adultery? |
A62735 | For may not they say, Why do not you hold the Lords Day to be jure Divino? |
A62735 | For must such a mixture be? |
A62735 | For the first of these, Quis unquam negavit? |
A62735 | For what is there in water now, more than in fire before? |
A62735 | For what say others of his Followers? |
A62735 | For who ever thought, that a thing not repugnant must needs be, or be most likely, at the least? |
A62735 | For who should they give them to besides? |
A62735 | For who will dare to disobey the nod of a Prince( if he may understand it right) without the pain of displeasure, or other penalties? |
A62735 | For why? |
A62735 | From Adam''s? |
A62735 | God caused the Covenant of Works to be shut in a Chest under the Mercy- seat, and why? |
A62735 | Has S t Paul magnified his own ministry, and this ministration all in vain? |
A62735 | Having therefore no Lands, what should they do with Seed? |
A62735 | He replyed, I know not: Am I my Brothers Keeper? |
A62735 | He was a Reprobate; From Abel, Noah and Abraham, according to such respective enlightnings as they had? |
A62735 | How a Seal, and of what Covenant? |
A62735 | How many instances might be given to expose such a supposition to laughter? |
A62735 | How the difference stood or appeared in respect of what they offered, and how they were accepted? |
A62735 | How then? |
A62735 | How was he concerned in it? |
A62735 | If it be asked again, Why was Sem chosen rather than Ham and Iaphet? |
A62735 | If it be asked, Why Abel was accepted, and Cain not? |
A62735 | If it be further questioned, What private Religion Ioseph could have unto himself, or what exercise or practice of it, in the house of Pharaoh? |
A62735 | If it had been righteous Abel, the younger Brother, whom Cain hated, would not Cain have disdained to take example from him? |
A62735 | If it had been wicked Cain, would God have spoken so indifferently to him? |
A62735 | If there be a particular Election of persons, conditionally only; then, Whether Election hangeth in suspense? |
A62735 | If they had known him generally, durst the rest of them have crucified the Lord of life and glory? |
A62735 | If they were not according to the Spirit of Christ, how could we be sanctified or comforted by the Scriptures of the Old Testament? |
A62735 | If thou do well, shalt thou not be accepted? |
A62735 | If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? |
A62735 | If to any Priesthood, after the disappearing of Melchisedeck, where was the like o ● der? |
A62735 | If you ask, Why, where should he have had another? |
A62735 | In all which, if there were not a Syllable of Christ, how could we use the fame Forms and Phrases still? |
A62735 | Is He glad of the occasion for the further satisfying of his flesh? |
A62735 | Is it more reasonable that men should prescribe a modus of his own worship unto God, or he to men? |
A62735 | Is it not for the same reason that we hold Infant- Baptism to be nothing so? |
A62735 | Is not this argumentum ad hominem, if after this he affirm( as his Followers do) that Sacrifices were of humane excogitation only? |
A62735 | Is not this to appeal always to himself? |
A62735 | Let us go over unto the Garison of these uncircumcised Philistins, said Ionathan: Who is this uncircumcised Philistine? |
A62735 | Must not he, as well as his Grandfather Abraham, leave it all behind him, at the next remove? |
A62735 | Now although it be said, that the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelled then in the Land; yet Abram said unto Lot, Is not the whole Land before thee? |
A62735 | Now if any one ask here, Why, what choice had he or the other Brothers? |
A62735 | Or did he spare all his Flock to be immortal, while Man alone was subject to mortality? |
A62735 | Or do you think it proper that God himself should second a project of the wicked Cain, or the decayed Adam? |
A62735 | Or doth he do it the better to please his Wife, even as Adam pleased Eve, and fell by it? |
A62735 | Or how is it that David and Christ should come to descend from this Pharez, rather than from Shelah? |
A62735 | Or how the Egyptians could bear their Sacrifices better than their Trade or Diet? |
A62735 | Or how was Abel''s Sacrifice of more value than Cain''s? |
A62735 | Or indeed, a thousand Head of Sheep or Cattel of any great worth, if their Flesh were not? |
A62735 | Or of the Bread and Wine that was used at the Passover, to frame his own Supper by it, according to their use? |
A62735 | Or should they rather strive and endeavour to rise again? |
A62735 | Or such a Seed proceed from the Bowels of a Canaanitish Woman, as shall be proper to destroy the Canaanites? |
A62735 | Or such a faith without a clear evidence to support it? |
A62735 | Or such an hope, without a ground of faith? |
A62735 | Or what might they have to divide amongst them when they came home? |
A62735 | Or what need had Abel to bring such Sacrifices as these but once a year, the profits whereof arose daily? |
A62735 | Or who can shew the institution before the practice? |
A62735 | Or who ever blamed Abraham for his taking of Hagar or Keturah for his Concubines? |
A62735 | Or who ever questioned but that those were saved by some faith or other equivalent unto ours? |
A62735 | Or, That men were never at all justified by their Offering of Sacrifice in Faith? |
A62735 | Or, could he have any Closets adorned with the Reliques of Noah, Sem, Eber, Abraham,& c or any other holy things? |
A62735 | Or, if he had, any one to serve at that Altar, or to worship at it, besides himself? |
A62735 | Or, in sine, is not he himself also touched with a little spice of unbelief, in his obtemperance unto Sarai, as well as she? |
A62735 | Our first Parents Created in perfection, yet never offered to couple in their innocency, though they had such a command, with a blessing; and why? |
A62735 | Quare voláerunt videre,& audire? |
A62735 | Said not God unto Iacob at his first descent, I will go down with thee into Egypt, and I will also surely bring thee up again? |
A62735 | Secondly, But why( then) did he send his ten Sons only, with their ten Asses, to buy Corn for them all? |
A62735 | Secondly, Why the Sons of Keturah afterwards? |
A62735 | Should they rest in despair, and in dejection? |
A62735 | Should we think it to be too hard for him, or that he had not time enough in the nine hundred and thirty years, that he lived, to accomplish it? |
A62735 | That they import no more but that men should hate Serpents, and Serpents men; and that they should lye in wait for one another? |
A62735 | The Prophet said, I beseech thee, O Lord, for the Lord''s sake; The Question is, For what Lord''s sake? |
A62735 | Thirdly, Why the Servants born in the house, or bought with money, who were all Aliens from the Seed of Abraham? |
A62735 | To this was added the great favour of Almighty God( for when did he ever do so by any other mortal man?) |
A62735 | Under some of which Heads it will fall in to be considered how Circumcision was a Sign, and of what? |
A62735 | Was Circumcision ancienter than He? |
A62735 | Was not Abraham expresly commanded to offer up his Son Isaac, and did not God provide him of a Ram in the stead of his Son? |
A62735 | Was not therefore the Regiment of the Church of the Old Testament under God the Father? |
A62735 | Was that the proper way to acknowledge it? |
A62735 | What made Abram so continent hitherto, and so constant to his barren Wife Sarai? |
A62735 | What private Religion he might have; What godly people near him? |
A62735 | What think you of Murder before Noah? |
A62735 | What was his speech to Ionah? |
A62735 | Wherefore then serveth the Law? |
A62735 | Whether Cain and Abel offered apart, or in one place? |
A62735 | Which of the contradictions of these rational Querists shall we embrace, since they can not all hold together, nor yet agree one with another? |
A62735 | Whither should they go? |
A62735 | Who was this Mediator then? |
A62735 | Who will venture to keep his place, if a General point with his Staff or Finger, directing any motion? |
A62735 | Whom did the other Brothers marry? |
A62735 | Why, also, they coveted Children after their fall? |
A62735 | Why, wherein was the difference? |
A62735 | Will I eat the flesh of Bulls, or drink the blood of Goats? |
A62735 | Will they therefore wholely deny any institution, by way of implicit precept? |
A62735 | Will ye hear it from his own mouth? |
A62735 | [ Was it given to the prejudice of the Grace of Christ?] |
A62735 | and whether it might be imposed? |
A62735 | and why is thy countonance fallen? |
A62735 | of burning for Adultery afterwards? |
A62735 | or by the explicit faith of Christ, exhibited in the New Testament, more than there was before? |
A62735 | or in Bread and Wine now, more than in the Cakes and Libaments, with the flesh and bloud of Sheep, before? |
A62735 | or raise example in some one case, or two, as high as a precept; and in many more, of great importance, study to dwindle it to nothing? |
A62735 | or what congruity in the sense? |
A62735 | or what did he do? |
A62735 | to a place he knew not? |
A62735 | to men that know not him? |
A62735 | when God commanded him to offer up his only Son Isaac, and in sparing Isaac, provided Abraham of another Sacrifice? |
A62735 | — — Quis nescit qualia demens Aegyptus portentae colit? |
A62735 | ● If to Sacrifices, what should he add? |
A60941 | 1688? |
A60941 | 9. representing Him to their thoughts, as an Old Man sitting in Heaven? |
A60941 | A Rational, a Sensitive, and a Vegetative? |
A60941 | Again, is Pardon of Sin an Essential Act of God''s Iustice? |
A60941 | Agreeably to all which, Seneca in the Preface to his Natural Questions, putting the Question, Quid est Deus? |
A60941 | And I would fain know, Whether this Man of Paradox, will affirm, That God Loves every Thing which he has a true Knowledge and Estimation of? |
A60941 | And St. Ierom in his Epistle to Damasus, Quis ore sacrilego Tres substantias praedicabit? |
A60941 | And after this tell us, That this gives no Account at all, how Three distinct Persons come to have but one Will and Energy, Power and Operation? |
A60941 | And are not these passages an Account of his Dealings and Operations in the Government of the World? |
A60941 | And besides, if a Mind, or Spirit, were not a Substance, what could it be else? |
A60941 | And can so Learned, and every way Excellent a Clergy bear this? |
A60941 | And does not this look mightily agreeable to all the Principles of Reason and Divinity? |
A60941 | And here if it should be asked, How they differ, and whether it be by any real distinction between the Persons? |
A60941 | And how can a Spirit incur directly into that? |
A60941 | And how does he acquit himself as to this? |
A60941 | And how does he prove this 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 to be Mutual Consciousness? |
A60941 | And if True, whether one Truth can any more obscure, perplex, and confound, than it can contradict another Truth? |
A60941 | And if so, must we not needs find a great difficulty in knowing it? |
A60941 | And if they derived this Perfection from their Souls, must not their Souls have been eminently perfect themselves, which rendred them so? |
A60941 | And in the next, assert also, that this Unity of Nature is proved by Unity of Energy and Operation? |
A60941 | And is not this close and profound reasoning? |
A60941 | And now can this Man pretend to speak these Things in the Person of one who thus Abhors, Abominates, and Detests them? |
A60941 | And now, is not this( think we) a most proper and fit posture for such as view and look into things very plain, obvious, and intelligible? |
A60941 | And now, what Relation does or can such an Act of Self- Consciousness imply in it? |
A60941 | And now, what does all this prove? |
A60941 | And that therefore the Laws will be very severe upon such as invade his Property? |
A60941 | And that we can have no Notion of Substance, but what implies in it something gross and material? |
A60941 | And then lastly for the School- men, who could have expected fewer of them also, than Ten, or Twenty? |
A60941 | And then, Where could be the Freedom of this Grace? |
A60941 | And to throw his Scurrility at High, and Low, at all About him, Above him, and Below him( if there be any such) at this insufferable rate? |
A60941 | And what of all this, I pray? |
A60941 | And what sence can there be in affirming, or saying, That they are but one distinct Infinite Mind? |
A60941 | And who denies this? |
A60941 | And will this bold over bearing Man, after all this, Claim their meaning to be the same with his? |
A60941 | And, What is the distinction between Essence, and Personality, and Subsistence? |
A60941 | And, are they so? |
A60941 | And, since Things were so in former Days, what hinders, but that in these latter Days likewise, the same, if not prevented, may happen again? |
A60941 | And, what is yet more, does it not more properly belong to any other of the Divine Acts, than to an Act of Knowledge? |
A60941 | Any more than he who says, That the Father is God, and the Son God, affirms them to be Two distinct Gods? |
A60941 | Are we able to comprehend them perfectly, and to the utmost of what, and how they are? |
A60941 | As, First, Whether the Soul, or Mind of Man be one Person, and the Man himself Another? |
A60941 | Basil, Theodoret, Epiphanius, with several more, all alledged in his behalf? |
A60941 | Between That, without which a Thing can not be, and that, which that Thing properly is? |
A60941 | But I demand of him, does Athanasius here speak of them as of Three Persons, or no? |
A60941 | But also, and much more properly to the Question, that enquires, What kind of Nature, or Essence such a thing is of? |
A60941 | But did his Adversary, Dr. Owen, ever speak so? |
A60941 | But does this inferr, That He is therefore a distinct Intelligent Mind, or Being from the Father? |
A60941 | But how then comes there to be only Three? |
A60941 | But may not others therefore, who are wiser, conceive more worthily of him, without laying aside that Scripture- expression? |
A60941 | But now if any one should ask me, What this Generation and Filiation, this Spiration and Procession are? |
A60941 | But perhaps it will be here said, if these Modes are not so many meer Nothings, or Entia Rationis, what order, or rank shall they be placed in? |
A60941 | But suppose, these unlucky Wits had used some new Terms, have they taught any new Faith about the Trinity in Unity, which the Church did not teach? |
A60941 | But then, I ask him, are not the Divine Operations so too? |
A60941 | But what is this to Spiritual Substances? |
A60941 | But what is this to our Author''s Purpose? |
A60941 | But what must we call them then? |
A60941 | But what shall we say to the Charge of Heresie,( in which St. Austin would have no Person, who is so charged to be silent?) |
A60941 | But where then may we find it? |
A60941 | But why do I speak of reconciling Contradictions? |
A60941 | But why do I speak of the Greek and Latine Fathers? |
A60941 | But why must the School- men bear all the blame of this? |
A60941 | But will this Man conclude, That where there is no Absurdity, there is therefore no Difficulty neither? |
A60941 | But you will say, From whom? |
A60941 | But you will say: Does not this infer Four Persons in the Godhead? |
A60941 | But, why, I pray? |
A60941 | Could you not as well have said, Let us change Saddles? |
A60941 | Do all, or any of the fore- mentioned Terms signifie Mutual Consciousness? |
A60941 | Do these Words speak of these Persons as distinguished, or do they not? |
A60941 | Does he,( I would fain know) in this speak his Judgment, or his Breeding? |
A60941 | For What Reason can be given of this? |
A60941 | For does he, or can he think to Live and Converse in the World upon these Terms? |
A60941 | For does not Unity of Nature, in these three distinct Persons prove this? |
A60941 | For has he lost his daring Polemick Pen? |
A60941 | For if we describe his Nature by any particular Attribute, or Perfection, and be thereupon asked, What that is? |
A60941 | For is it good arguing to conclude, That because a thing is actually thus or thus, it can not possibly be otherwise? |
A60941 | For must it be Nonsence not to own Contradictions? |
A60941 | For otherwise how come so many Socinian Pieces wrote against him to lie so long unanswered? |
A60941 | For the Nature and Condition of the Thing will not have it so, nor have the Ablest Divines ever thought it so,( for where then were the Mystery?) |
A60941 | For this is an Answer, not only to that Question, that enquires, Whether there be such a thing, or Essence, or no? |
A60941 | For will any one say, That the Soul can either Create or Generate the Person, or( to speak more plainly) the Man who is the Person? |
A60941 | For will he say, That the School- men do not grant such Modes to be in God, after he himself has done his poor utmost to confute them for holding it? |
A60941 | For will he, in the first place, assert, in the Three Divine Persons a Numerical Unity of Nature? |
A60941 | For will this Author put out the Eyes of his Reader? |
A60941 | For, Why not a Substance without Beginning, as well as Truth, or Wisdom, or Goodness, without a Beginning? |
A60941 | From Servetus, or Socinus,( from whom also it was borrowed) than from a Son of the Church, in a Book published by Licence and Authority? |
A60941 | How can Three distinct Persons have but One Numerical Substance? |
A60941 | How can three distinct Persons have but one Numerical Substance? |
A60941 | I Answer, What if we can not? |
A60941 | I tell him, This is not the Point in Controversie, Whether we can imagine it, or no? |
A60941 | If it be here now asked: Whether Subsistence, or Suppositality added to bare Nature, does not make a Composition? |
A60941 | In the mean time, why should any one who had reàd but a Page in Calvin, quote him for such a word as could not possibly drop from so Learned a Pen? |
A60941 | In what the Father''s placed the Unity in Trinity? |
A60941 | In which case, who must be the Person drawing them? |
A60941 | Indeed no more than that Reply of Hazael, Is thy Servant a Dog? |
A60941 | Is a Beast an Intelligent Substance? |
A60941 | Is it because this Author has got the Monopoly of them, and engrossed them all to himself? |
A60941 | Is there so much as one Tittle in the Fathers expressing, or necessarily implying, that it is so? |
A60941 | Is this( says he) Language becoming a Son of the Church of England? |
A60941 | It is so far from being a wonder to meet with any Thing[ whose Nature] we do not understand,& c. But is this Sence, or Grammar? |
A60941 | Master, What needs all these Words? |
A60941 | Must nothing be applyed to God, but what shall let us into the full knowledge of all that is difficult and mysterious in the Divine Nature? |
A60941 | Must we all take up in Scepticism, and acknowledge, that nothing is to be known? |
A60941 | Nay, Where could be this Grace it self? |
A60941 | Nay, on the contrary, does it not Exert it self in Infinite other Acts? |
A60941 | Now all this is very true; but how will our Author bring it to his purpose? |
A60941 | Now how shall we reconcile these blind Assertions, that so cruelly bu ● t and run their Heads against one another? |
A60941 | Or an Act of Sight such a Circulation? |
A60941 | Or can we think that the Fathers wrote Things without Words, as some do but too often write Words without Things? |
A60941 | Or charge them as the necessary Consequences of his Doctrine, without proving, or by any formed Argument so much as offering to prove them so? |
A60941 | Or did that Act consist in a Wise proportion of Rewards and Punishments, before there was any Act of the Creature to be Rewarded, or Punished? |
A60941 | Or does any Man say, Reach me that Book,[ who lies there] or that Chair[ who stands there?] |
A60941 | Or does he never reflect upon himself, nor consider, That though he does not, others assuredly will? |
A60941 | Or does the Son''s Relation to the Father consist in his being Conscious to himself of this Relation? |
A60941 | Or has he lost the use of his Hand? |
A60941 | Or has he run himself out of Breath? |
A60941 | Or must it be Heresie not to Subscribe to Tritheisme, as the best and most Orthodox Explication of the Article of the Trinity? |
A60941 | Or that this 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 in the whole Latitude and Compass of it extends no further? |
A60941 | Or the Language, they wrote in, too scanty to express their Speculations by? |
A60941 | Or use the Expressions here uttered by this Author? |
A60941 | Or what does it conclude for him? |
A60941 | Or will he say, That our Saviour meant the same Thing with himself, but was not so happy in expressing it? |
A60941 | Or, can a Beast be a Person, and yet not an Intelligent Substance, when he affirms, That they are Terms Reciprocal? |
A60941 | Or, that Self- Consciousness is the proper ground, or Reason of their distinction? |
A60941 | Ought it not more justly to have been expected from a Iew, or a Mahometan? |
A60941 | Pray what hurt have they done? |
A60941 | Quid enim insanius? |
A60941 | Quod si tenemus, cur non& magnitudinis suae,& bonitatis,& aeternitatis,& omnipotentiae suae Generator sit? |
A60941 | So that the Matter being in effect brought to this point, Whether He shall be too hard for the World, or the World for Him? |
A60941 | So that we see here what our Author asserts; But may we rely upon it, and hold him to his Word? |
A60941 | So that, that which removes one, must needs remove the other too? |
A60941 | That God created the Heavens and the Earth, and that therefore the Three Divine Persons are and must be one, only by an Unity of Mutual Consciousness? |
A60941 | That One infinite Spirit is Three distinct Infinite Spirits? |
A60941 | That as Generation and Filiation make two, so Spiration and Procession should make two more? |
A60941 | That, by which it is it self formally a Person, and that other, which by its Constituting it self a Person, is Constituted and caused by it? |
A60941 | The Question before him was, Whether the Three Divine Persons were Three Gods? |
A60941 | There is one Person of the Father, another of the Son, and another of the Holy Ghost? |
A60941 | Was either the Thing it self( as I noted before) of such deep, or sublime Speculation, as not to be reached by them? |
A60941 | Was it the School, the University, or Gravel- Lane, that taught him this Language? |
A60941 | Well; and what then? |
A60941 | What can the meaning of this be? |
A60941 | What is God? |
A60941 | What is Intellectual Love( says this Author) but the true Knowledge, or Estimation of Things? |
A60941 | What is Iustice and Goodness but an equal Distribution of, or a true and wise Proportion of Rewards and Punishments? |
A60941 | What is perfect Power, but perfect Truth and Wisdom which can do whatsoever it knows? |
A60941 | What is the Distinction between Essence, and Personality, and Subsistence? |
A60941 | What is the Substance and Nature of God? |
A60941 | What then mean those Words of the Creed? |
A60941 | What then will that old Principle of Nature, 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, serve for, but to tantalize and torment us? |
A60941 | What( says our Author) is the Substance, or Nature of God? |
A60941 | Whereupon I would again learn of him how many steps are necessary to explain Mutual- Conciousness? |
A60941 | Whether it be so in Infinite? |
A60941 | Whether or no Self- Consciousness be the Reason of Personality in Finite Persons? |
A60941 | Whether the three Persons of the Blessed Trinity are not Mutually Conscious to one another of their Mutual In- existence in one another? |
A60941 | Why does he let St. Austin escape, from whom the Master of the Sentences borrowed most of his Distinctions and Subtleties? |
A60941 | Why, how then comes a Beast, in page 269. to be a Person? |
A60941 | Why, in the first place we must search and enquire, whether it be so, or no? |
A60941 | Why? |
A60941 | all drawn forth in Rank and File, to have fought his Battels? |
A60941 | and whether God revealed them for any other purpose than that he might be known and understood by them? |
A60941 | or, whether there be one between the first and the second? |
A60941 | the Words and Actions of Men, which they both Exist in, and Converse about? |
A61548 | Am I bound to believe it or not? |
A61548 | And are not all the main Articles of the Christian Faith comprehended under it? |
A61548 | And doth not all this discover no good will to the Scriptures, at least, as they are received among us? |
A61548 | And from whence comes it? |
A61548 | And from whence comes such a Denomination? |
A61548 | And how can those who hold three Persons be Sabellians? |
A61548 | And how can three Persons be one Person, unless three incommunicable Properties may become one communicated Property to three Persons? |
A61548 | And how can we but divide the Substance, which we find in three distinct divided Persons? |
A61548 | And if there are three Persons which have the Divine Nature attributed to them; what must we do in this Case? |
A61548 | And is not this an admirable Way to bring us to a certainty of Reason? |
A61548 | And is not this great skill in these Matters, to make such a Parallel between three Persons in the Godhead, and Peter, Iames and Iohn? |
A61548 | And is not this very good Authority among us? |
A61548 | And is this all indeed, that is to be said for the being of Substance, that we accustom our selves to suppose a Substratum? |
A61548 | And is this indeed the great Secret which this bold Man, as they call him, hath discover''d? |
A61548 | And now let the World judge, how wisely they have interpreted both S. Iohn, and his Commentator Grotius? |
A61548 | And now what Reason can there be, that any such late Copies should be prefer''d before those which were used by the Greek Fathers? |
A61548 | And now what do these Men do? |
A61548 | And so Heaven and Earth are called to bear Witness against obstinate Sinners: May men therefore be baptized in the name of God and his Creatures? |
A61548 | And that he is the Word, and God of God, from Theophilus Antiochenus? |
A61548 | And to make his Apostles set up the Worship of a Creature, when their design was to take away the Worship of all such, who by Nature are not Gods? |
A61548 | And to what purpose then are they brought? |
A61548 | And upon his bringing Erasmus to prove that it was not in S. Cyprian, S. Hilary, and S. Chrysostome, he cries out, Where is Sincerity? |
A61548 | And what Answer do they give to this? |
A61548 | And what Answer doth S. Ambrose give to this? |
A61548 | And what answer do they give to this? |
A61548 | And what certainty can we have that he hath not done it? |
A61548 | And what defence have they since made for themselves? |
A61548 | And what follows from hence, but that the relative Property is the Foundation of the Personality? |
A61548 | And what follows? |
A61548 | And what follows? |
A61548 | And what greater argument can there be, that it was then the general sense of the Christian Church? |
A61548 | And what is this, but to own two distinct Substances? |
A61548 | And what must they think of our Saviour the mean time, who knew the Iews understood him quite otherwise, and would not undeceive them? |
A61548 | And what saith he to this purpose? |
A61548 | And what say our Vnitarians to it? |
A61548 | And what say our Vnitarians to this? |
A61548 | And what say our Vnitarians to this? |
A61548 | And what then? |
A61548 | And what then? |
A61548 | And what then? |
A61548 | And what then? |
A61548 | And wherein is this different, from what all men of Understanding have said? |
A61548 | And who are these Dominions and Powers? |
A61548 | Are not then( without Trifling and Fooling) these Real Essences Mysteries to them? |
A61548 | Are not these very good Christians the mean while? |
A61548 | Are not three Substances and but one a Contradiction? |
A61548 | Are they not three Gods? |
A61548 | Are they resolved to set up Deism among us, and in order thereto, to undermine the authority of the New Testament? |
A61548 | As of divine Authority? |
A61548 | As though he allow''d more Gods than one in Number? |
A61548 | As to the Essence? |
A61548 | But Eusebius doth not use Hegesippus his words, but his own in that place; and withal, how doth it appear that Hegesippus himself was an Ebionite? |
A61548 | But after all, why do we assert three Persons in the Godhead? |
A61548 | But by no means, that the Person of the Father is nothing but the relative Property? |
A61548 | But can any thing of this Nature be charged upon one, who hath not only written in Defence of it, but speaks of it with the highest Veneration? |
A61548 | But can one whole entire indivisible Substance be actually divided into three Substances? |
A61548 | But can these Men of Sense and Reason think, that the Point in Controversie ever was, whether in Numbers, One could be Three, or Three One? |
A61548 | But can you have a full and evident Perception of a thing, so as to difference it from all others, when you grant it to be Incomprehensible? |
A61548 | But comes it from a good hand? |
A61548 | But did they mean three distinct Subsistences, or only one Subsistence sustaining the Names, or Appearances, or Manifestations of three Persons? |
A61548 | But do these assert, that there is but one subsisting Person, and three only in Name? |
A61548 | But doth any one imagine, that because Iohn Baptist did enter his Disciples by Baptism, therefore they must believe him to be God? |
A61548 | But doth he not say, That he hath a Legitimate and proper Substance of his own begotten Nature from God, the Father? |
A61548 | But doth it follow that they are guilty of Heresie? |
A61548 | But he will Demonstrate something instead of it? |
A61548 | But how I pray doth this appear? |
A61548 | But how came the Preface to be curtail''d in the Ebionite Gospel? |
A61548 | But how can I comprehend this Attribute of Eternity? |
A61548 | But how can we but divide the Substance which we see in three distinct divided Persons? |
A61548 | But how comes Christ to assume that to himself which belong''d to the Word? |
A61548 | But how comes he to take no notice of this Difference of the Clermont Copy? |
A61548 | But how comes the general Idea of Substance, to be framed in our Minds? |
A61548 | But how do our simple Ideas help us out in this Matter? |
A61548 | But how do they make out this gross Stupidity of theirs? |
A61548 | But how doth he apply these things to the divine Nature? |
A61548 | But how doth he make this out? |
A61548 | But how doth it appear that we have any Power to comprehend what is infinite? |
A61548 | But how doth it appear, that Beza''s Clermont Copy was the very same which Morinus had? |
A61548 | But how doth it appear, that he brought in any new Doctrine? |
A61548 | But how doth it appear, that the Word Mystery is always used in that Sense? |
A61548 | But how doth that appear? |
A61548 | But how doth the other Antagonist escape? |
A61548 | But how far? |
A61548 | But how if any one Person were left out? |
A61548 | But how is it possible to understand this? |
A61548 | But how is this clear''d by the other Party? |
A61548 | But how then can there be but one individual Essence in all three? |
A61548 | But how then comes it not to make a distinct Essence, as it makes distinct Persons, by being communicated? |
A61548 | But how then? |
A61548 | But how? |
A61548 | But how? |
A61548 | But how? |
A61548 | But if he had so meant it, how could he have expressed it otherwise? |
A61548 | But if he was for ever, he must be from himself, and what Notion, or Conception can we have in our Minds concerning it? |
A61548 | But if that be not taken as an Evidence of his being the eternal Son of God, how doth this prove him above Angels? |
A61548 | But if the Christian Interpreters were such Fools; what think they of the Deists, whom they seem to have a better opinion of, as to their Wisdom? |
A61548 | But may not Christians have such doubts in their minds? |
A61548 | But may not each Person have a distinct Essence belonging to him, as we see it is among Men? |
A61548 | But may not the fame Essence be divided? |
A61548 | But saith S. Augustin, The Caviller will ask, if there be Three, what Three are they? |
A61548 | But saith he, Will it not hence follow, that as these are two Men, so the Father and Son in the Divine Essence must be two Gods? |
A61548 | But the Question is whether the Fathers used it in that sense, so as to imply a difference of Individuals in the same common Essence? |
A61548 | But they leave out what he saith, and put in what he doth not say; is not this interpreting like Wise men? |
A61548 | But this is said to be a Contradiction; so it was in the other case and not allow''d then and why should it be otherwise in this? |
A61548 | But this worthy Author produces other Reasons, which Sandius himself laughs at, and despises? |
A61548 | But to what purpose? |
A61548 | But were not the Iews to understand it in the Sense it was known among them? |
A61548 | But what Bias was it, which made him write with that Strength and Iudgment against their Opinions? |
A61548 | But what Reason doth he give for it? |
A61548 | But what are these very strong and weighty Reasons? |
A61548 | But what consequence do they draw from hence? |
A61548 | But what do they say to the Old Paraphrases, whereon the main Weight as to this matter lies? |
A61548 | But what is it which makes the Vnion indissoluble? |
A61548 | But what is it? |
A61548 | But what is this Distinction founded upon? |
A61548 | But what is this to the first Christians of the Church of Ierusalem? |
A61548 | But what is to know? |
A61548 | But what reason do they give for it? |
A61548 | But what reason do they give for such a forced and unusual Sense, besides the avoiding the difficulty of having the Name of God given here to Christ? |
A61548 | But what saith Grotius himself? |
A61548 | But what saith S. Augustin to this? |
A61548 | But what say our Wise Interpreters to this? |
A61548 | But what then do they think of these passages in his Conferences with the Iews? |
A61548 | But when you have reckon''d them what is it you have been Counting? |
A61548 | But whence or how? |
A61548 | But where doth Grotius say any thing like this? |
A61548 | But where doth S. Augustin give any such Account of it? |
A61548 | But where else are these honest, conscientious Deists to be found? |
A61548 | But where is this said? |
A61548 | But wherein is it that Eusebius blames them? |
A61548 | But wherein lies it? |
A61548 | But wherein lies this Impossibility? |
A61548 | But wherein then lies the difference in point of Reason? |
A61548 | But who is to set these Bounds but themselves in all Acts of relative Worship, because they depend upon the intention of the Persons? |
A61548 | But who made them subject to him? |
A61548 | But who was this Arian Bishop, and these Campenses? |
A61548 | But why do we call them Persons, when that Term is not found in Scripture, and is of a doubtful Sense? |
A61548 | But why must they confound the Persons, if there be but one Essence? |
A61548 | But will not this overthrow the distinction of Persons and run us into Sabellianism? |
A61548 | But, if our Reason depend upon our clear and distinct Idea''s; how is this possible? |
A61548 | By dividing the Substance? |
A61548 | Can the communicating the divine Essence by the Father to the Son, be called a Name, or a Mode, or a Respect only? |
A61548 | Can we be certain without any Foundation of Reason? |
A61548 | Can we learn from them, the difference of Nature and Person? |
A61548 | Can we suppose them Guilty of such stupidity to lose their Lives, for not giving Divine Honour to Creatures, and at the same time to do it themselves? |
A61548 | Did God make the Earth and all the living Creatures in it, when he made Man Lord over them? |
A61548 | Did ever N ● etus or Sabellius, or any of their Followers speak after this manner? |
A61548 | Did he die to reform them, as well as Mankind? |
A61548 | Did they all interpret the Scriptures like Fools, and not like Wise Men? |
A61548 | Did they mean no more, but as any Good man is? |
A61548 | Do not you comprehend that it is incomprehensible? |
A61548 | Do the others who maintain a Trinity deny this? |
A61548 | Do they hope ever to convince Men at this rate of wise interpreting? |
A61548 | Do they suppose the divine Nature capable of such Division and Separation by Individuals, as human Nature is? |
A61548 | Do they think there is no difference between an infinitely perfect Being, and such finite limited Creatures as Individuals among Men are? |
A61548 | Doth Marcion hold this Trinity? |
A61548 | Doth Origen say all the Iewish Christians there were such? |
A61548 | Doth he not say, the Arian Bishop, and the Campenses put him upon it? |
A61548 | Doth he own such a Community of Nature, and Distinction of Individuals there? |
A61548 | Doth he say they borrowed the Form of Baptism from thence? |
A61548 | Doth it therefore follow, that there are no Doctrines in the Gospel above the reach and comprehension of our Reason? |
A61548 | Doth not S. Ambrose say, as Curcellaeus quotes him, That the Father and Son are not two Gods, because all men are said to be of one Substance? |
A61548 | Doth not by whom all things were created in Heaven and Earth imply, that Heaven and Earth were created by him? |
A61548 | Doth not this look like a design to furnish the Deists with such arguments as they could meet with against it? |
A61548 | Doth this prove such a difference, as is among Individuals of the same kind among men? |
A61548 | Doth this reach the Nature of the thing, or only the manner of our Conception? |
A61548 | Ecce inquit tres dixisti, sed quid tres exprime? |
A61548 | Especially, when they say, That S. Iohn doth not oppose them Why then are these Arguments produced against his Gospel? |
A61548 | Filium quem dicitis, Deum dicitis? |
A61548 | For I appeal to the common Sense of mankind, whether we can be said to Comprehend that, which we can have no adequate Idea of? |
A61548 | For according to this Sense, how comes a divine Attribute to be called the Son of Man? |
A61548 | For the question upon the Creed is, Whether the Substance can be divided? |
A61548 | For unto which of the Angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? |
A61548 | For what is it makes the second Sun to be a true Sun, but having the same Real Essence with the first? |
A61548 | For what is the old or first Creation, but the making the World, and creating all things in Heaven and Earth? |
A61548 | For what reason? |
A61548 | For, if he could have no Cause, what could we think of his being Eternal? |
A61548 | For, they say, That he held, that as to this question, How many Gods? |
A61548 | From what evidence? |
A61548 | Grant he was so, yet how doth it appear that all the Iewish Christians were at that time Ebionites or Cerinthians? |
A61548 | Had all men lost their Senses in Theodoret''s time? |
A61548 | Had he no more skill in Arithmetick than to say there are Three and yet but One? |
A61548 | Have the Brutes and Trinitarians learnt Arithmetick together? |
A61548 | Have they any new Books of Scripture to judge by? |
A61548 | Have we not now a very comfortable account of the Canon of the New Testament from these ancient Vnitarians? |
A61548 | He answers, Why not, since we call Body and Soul by the Name of the Man? |
A61548 | He granted that they were one Essence, one Nature, one Substance: but how? |
A61548 | He grants to Praxeas, that Father, Son and Holy Ghost are one, but how? |
A61548 | He pretends to Demonstrate; but what I pray? |
A61548 | How are the Angels created by him and for him? |
A61548 | How can that be said to be the Son of God begotten of the Father, without Division, before all Worlds, as he quotes it from Iustin Martyr? |
A61548 | How can that be? |
A61548 | How can the Substance be distinct, if it be the very same; and the Son subsist in that Substance of which he was begotten? |
A61548 | How can these things consist? |
A61548 | How can this be consistent with deducing our Certainty of Knowledge from clear and simple Ideas? |
A61548 | How can this distinction be? |
A61548 | How come the Mysteries of Faith to require more Knowledge than the Nature of Man is capable of? |
A61548 | How could the Son of Man be said to ascend thither, where a divine Attribute was before? |
A61548 | How could this be, if all the Christians were out of his reach, then being setled about Pella? |
A61548 | How doth that appear? |
A61548 | How doth that appear? |
A61548 | How doth this appear to be very probable? |
A61548 | How is it possible for Three to be but One? |
A61548 | How is this possible, if a Person doth suppose some peculiar Property, which must distinguish him from all others? |
A61548 | How so? |
A61548 | How so? |
A61548 | How then can our Vnitarians pretend, That the Ante- Nicene Fathers did not alledge the Form of Baptism to prove the Trinity? |
A61548 | How then can we know, that of which we can have no adequate Idea? |
A61548 | How then is it possible to understand S. Basil of more Gods than one in number? |
A61548 | I allow he Reason to be very good, but the Question I ask is, whether this Argument be from the clear and distinct Idea or not? |
A61548 | I desire to know, Whether the Adoration of such were Idolatry or not? |
A61548 | If it be said to be the same Specifick Nature; then how comes that which is in it self capable of Division to make an indissoluble Vnion? |
A61548 | If it be, is it the same individual Essence, or not? |
A61548 | If it extends to all the other things, doth it exclude this, which is the first mention''d? |
A61548 | If it were necessary to be believed, why is it not more plainly revealed? |
A61548 | If only some parts of Matter have a power of Thinking, how comes so great a difference in the Properties of the same Matter? |
A61548 | If the same individual Essence makes the inseparable Union, what is it, which makes the difference of individuals? |
A61548 | If their arguments are mean and trifling and merely precarious, why are they not slighted and answered by such as pretend to be Christians? |
A61548 | If they are false, why do they not answer them? |
A61548 | If they are true, why do they not affirm them? |
A61548 | If they do understand them, why do they say, They do not, nor can not? |
A61548 | In the former Testimony, the authority of the Vulgar Latin was made use of: and why, is it rejected here? |
A61548 | Interrogant enim nos aliquando Infideles,& dicunt, Patrem quem dicitis, Deum dicitis? |
A61548 | Into the Father? |
A61548 | Into the Holy Ghost? |
A61548 | Into the Son? |
A61548 | Is it like wise Men, to go upon such grounds as will justifie both Pagan and Popish Idolatry? |
A61548 | Is it not rather exposing and ridiculing them? |
A61548 | Is it not to have adequate Ideas of the things we know? |
A61548 | Is it possible for Men that live in our Age to give such an account as this of the Growth of Deism and Atheism among us? |
A61548 | Is it the Vnity of the Essence or not? |
A61548 | Is it the attributing a general Name to them? |
A61548 | Is not the like Equity to be shew ● d in another though different Explication? |
A61548 | Is not this Subtle and deep Reasoning? |
A61548 | Is not this a fine turn? |
A61548 | Is not this a rare Specimen of Wise interpreting, and Fair dealing with so considerable a Person, and so well known, as Grotius? |
A61548 | Is not this a rare way of fixing the Boundaries of Faith and Reason? |
A61548 | Is not this a very strong and weighty Reason? |
A61548 | Is not this doing great Honour to our Saviour? |
A61548 | Is not this fair dealing with such a Man as S. Basil, to represent his Sense quite otherwise than it is? |
A61548 | Is not this interpreting like wise Men indeed? |
A61548 | Is that Custom grounded upon true Reason or not? |
A61548 | Is the divine Essence but a mere Name, or a different respect only to Mankind? |
A61548 | Is this Wise interpreting? |
A61548 | Is this a sufficient reason or not? |
A61548 | Is this by Abstracting and inlarging simple Ideas? |
A61548 | Is this interpreting Scripture like Wise men, to deny Divine Worship to be given to our Saviour when the Scripture so plainly requires it? |
A61548 | Is this interpreting Scripture like wise Men, to take advantage of all Omissions in Copies, when those which are entire ought to be preferr''d? |
A61548 | Is this interpreting the Scriptures like wise Men? |
A61548 | Is this right? |
A61548 | Is this sufficient to charge such a Person with the Sabellian Heresy, which he utterly disowns? |
A61548 | Is this to interpret Scripture like Wise men, to make our Saviour''s meaning to be expressly contrary to his Words? |
A61548 | It is easie to guess whom these kind Words were intended for: And are not these very modest and civil Expressions? |
A61548 | It''s very true; but how doth this prove that there is a God? |
A61548 | Let the Case be now put as to the Trinity; do you believe the Doctrine of it, as of Divine Revelation? |
A61548 | Must not this be a very learned Critick who could mention S. Ierom, as Translator of S. Matthews Gospel into Greek? |
A61548 | Must we cast off the Vnity of the Divine Essence? |
A61548 | Must we quit Christ''s being the Messias, because the Jews deny it? |
A61548 | Must we reject those Scriptures which attribute Divinity to the Son and Holy Ghost, as well as to the Father? |
A61548 | Must we renounce the Christian Doctrine to please the Jews and Mahometans? |
A61548 | No, Are they not three Almighties? |
A61548 | No, they may say, but ye who hold three Persons must think so: For what reason? |
A61548 | Non tres omnipotentes? |
A61548 | Now if Christ were taken up into Heaven, as Moses was into the Mount, why was it not made publick at that time? |
A61548 | Now if both Parties mean what they say, where lies the difference? |
A61548 | Now what Prolation can there be of a meer Attribute? |
A61548 | Now what was this Doctrine of Noetus? |
A61548 | Now what was this unheard of Doctrine of Noetus? |
A61548 | Now wherein doth this differ from the present Hypothesis? |
A61548 | Now, what is the Subject in this case? |
A61548 | Now, what saith the Vnitarian to this, who pretended to Answer me? |
A61548 | Number, saith he again, belongs to Quantity, and Quantity to Bodies, but what relation have these to God, but as he is the Maker of them? |
A61548 | Nunc mihi Calumniator respondeat, quid ergo tres? |
A61548 | Of mere Names or Cyphers, or of one God and two Creatures joyned in the same Form of words, as our Vnitarians understand it? |
A61548 | Of mere Names or Energies? |
A61548 | Of what? |
A61548 | One God the Father, and one God the Son; how can this be, and yet not two Gods? |
A61548 | Or Paulus Alciatus, who from a Unitarian turned Mahometan? |
A61548 | Or as other Hereticks, three Principles or three Gods? |
A61548 | Or doth our Reason give us true Notions of things, without these Idea''s? |
A61548 | Or rather was Man said to create them, because he was made their Head? |
A61548 | Or the suffering of Christ, because the Mahometans think it inconsistent with his Honour? |
A61548 | Or were they all turned Ebionites then? |
A61548 | Peter, and Iames, and Iohn, are all true and real Men; but what is it which makes them so? |
A61548 | Quare hoc non est ita ibi? |
A61548 | Quid sunt isti tres? |
A61548 | Respondemus Deum Spiritum Sanctum quem dicitis, Deum dicitis? |
A61548 | St. Augustin mentions it as such, when he saith, the Infidels sometimes ask us, what do you call the Father? |
A61548 | That the Father and Son are divided from each other, as they were? |
A61548 | The Israelites were baptized unto Moses; but how? |
