A59224What Couranto?
A59224What Gazet?
A59224What will I do?
A59224said he, Are you yet such a Puny, such a Novice in Politicks, as to stand upon the weak supports of that sneaking Vertue, Piety?
A59224— What them?
A59224— ridentem dicere verum Quis vetat?
A59227And if we could not defend it, why did we not blow it up?
A59227And must we have a Garison at every Seven Miles end?
A59227And was not this a bewitched Place, for such an Army to lie in?
A59227And who should do it, but that crooked Urchin, whom I have so often mentioned?
A59227And why did they not follow closer, but lay Lagging some Miles behind?
A59227Are we affraid of an Action of Trespass?
A59227But suppose we could not get over this River; must we then lie in our own Country with our Commanding Army?
A59227But what could we have done, had we been disposed to be active?
A59227But why could they not march the same Way, and upon the same Ground, that the Van had done?
A59227Didst thou not read News in the Gazette, Week after Week, From his Majesties Camp at Gemblours, and from the Royal Camp at Gemblours?
A59227How did Prince Lewis of Baden pass the Rhine this Summer?
A59227If it was impossible, why did we not march away, and make a Diversion?
A59227If the Relief was possible, why did we not attempt it?
A59227If we must Encamp, why might we not have Encampt upon this River( getting likewise a Passage over it) any where above their Lines?
A59227Now can any Man imagine that these Things could be, if the Devil had not bewitch''d us?
A59227Or how come these Things about?
A59227The French run every foot into Our Country, and why should not ▪ We do the like into Theirs?
A59227Was it not a bewitched Thing, that we should fortily these Places for the French?
A59227What the Devil then is the Matter?
A59227What, go beyond their Frontier Garisons?
A59227Why should not We do it as well as the French?
A59227Would''st know what came on''t?
A59221''T is propos''d then( for example) to our Judging Power, whether America be or no?
A59221Again, many times, when one is smartly questioned, if he be Certain of a thing?
A59221And, if so, is it not as evident, that all the efficacy of Christian Preaching springs naturally from the Impossibility that Faith should be False?
A59221But, the Question returns, Whether, in the end of our weighing their Motives, we discover them to be Truths or no?
A59221Can any discourse be taken higher than from first Principles?
A59221Do these words sound onely an Exclusion of Actual Doubt, or Suspicion of it at present, which Protestant Writers make sufficient to an Act of Faith?
A59221For I ask, was it determin''d enough by any Intellectual or Rational Motives to judg the thing is?
A59221For example, tell him he believes there was a K. Iames because those who pretended to live then have told us so; but what if they were mistaken?
A59221His answer would in likelihood be to this purpose; what a God''s name were they blind in those dayes, that they could not see who was King then?
A59221How frequent is it, when any one asks another, Is such a thing true?
A59221If not, why do we so asseverantly affirm they are?
A59221Is it not evident from the very Terms that''t is Irrational or without any Reason?
A59221Is it not evident it must be some weakness or some blind motive in the Will, not Light of Understanding?
A59221Is it not manifest, this( in our case) honest- dealing Profession would enervate the force of all the Motives they had proposed and prest?
A59221Must he bring a Syllogism consisting of Premisses only morally Certain or possible to be false, to make the other good?
A59221Nature will lead him to this or some such kind of Reply; To what purpose should they all make fools of every body?
A59221Oftentimes indeed they deny Faith to be Evidence or Science, and affirm it to be Obscure: but what''s this to the purpose?
A59221We finde him assent to the Affirmative heartily; But the point is how he is led into that Assent, and whether rationally?
A59221What then must the Opponent or Arguer do?
A59221What will it avail?
A59221You''l ask, what then must be said of the Phrase,[ Moral Certainty] where Certainty seems to admit an allay of Contingency?
A59221and the other replies, I verily think it is; he returns upon him with this pressing demand; I, but are you certain of it?
A59221and why are we bound by Religion to profess them to be so?
A59221if not, what made it judg so when those Motives could not?
A59221may not you be mistaken?
A59221or rather does it not mean that which of its own nature is such as can admit no Possible Cause of Doubt at any time for the future?
A59221or, if we come to discover they are Truths, how are we so stupid as not to discover withall, that they can not possibly be Falshoods?
A59221the Impossibility of its Falshood, is made by this Doctrin full as dark a hole as''t is to alledge the private Spirit?
A59219And against whom?
A59219Any determinate sence of it, or the dead Characters?
A59219But I ask, is their Interpretation of Scripture or Testimony Certain?
A59219But now whates all this to to our Church?
A59219But when writes the Dissuader this?
A59219Did not many Protestant Writers holdmany Roman- Catholick Tenets, as may be seen at large in the Protestants Apology?
A59219Do I wrong them?
A59219Do not Catholicks impugn them as much as Protestants?
A59219Do not the best Champions of Protestants object to the Ancient Fathers themselves such Errors in Opinions?
A59219How then does he hope to dissuade from Catholick Religion, by impugning that which touches not that Religion nor concerns any ones being of it?
A59219I ask, is the Letter alone such?
A59219If not, why should they even be admitted?
A59219In this case does he not think in his conscience it had been better in all respects they had been parted ere Matrimony had been consummated?
A59219Is it that he brings some stronger or more unavoidable sort of Testimonies then were ever yet produc''t by others?
A59219Is there requisit some Schollership in the Subject Scripture''s Letter is to work upon, or desire to see Truth in their Will?
A59219May not any one remain a Catholick, and never hold or practice these Cases and Opinions?
A59219Now on what does my Ld ground these horrid Charges against our Church, or how proceeds he to make them good?
A59219Or how can Vncertain Interpreters and Witnessers be admirable Helps to interpret right and good Testimony?
A59219Should I put upon you all things that were possible, what a Monster might I make you?
A59219What does my L. of Downs?
A59219What hath he got then by this kind of Proceeding, taking up better half his book?
A59219What mean the word Scriptures?
A59219What means This I do not understand?
A59219What means admitting as contradistinguisht to relying on?
A59219at which Mr. Calvin took hold of his own finger, and said, See you this?
A59219himself renounce actually living with a wife if he in his conscience judg''d so, but keep his promise let his Salvation go whether it would?
A59219how they''d look If they should chance to lose their paper Book?
A59219not to put down the words of the Council where it affirms this?
A59219or rather meer Characters and Sounds?
A59238But, how shall we know who has True, or Right Principles?
A59238But, where is this Philosophy all this while?
A59238Can it be deny''d, but that such very Learned, Acute and Ingenious Men do verily Judge that they clearly and distinctly see their Doctrine to be True?
A59238How many Instances is the World full of, to prove those Perceptions of ours, tho''judg''d by us most Evident, to be Fallacious?
A59238How many Thousands, even of a fair Pitch of Understanding, have mistaken Lively Fancies, for Evident Knowledge?
A59238I should be glad to know whether, or no, you would go about to convince such a Man by Grounds and Principles?
A59238In order to the Clearing of which, I ask: Was it True before you saw Clearly and Distinctly it was True?
A59238Is our Iudgment, or Manner of Conceiving, such a Certain Ground, or Infallible?
A59238Le Grand confesses, this may happen when the Will is Byass''d, or Men are Unskilful;( and how frequent is that?)
A59238Le Grand very rationally granting, p. 92. there goes more to constitute a Rule of Truth, than to be True?
A59238Must Truth be built on Men''s Iudgments, or their Manner of Conceiving?
A59238Must not the Object be such, ere you can know it to be such?
A59238Must, therefore, all Truth be built on a Mistakable Principle?
A59238Or Clearly and Distinctly Perceptible to be such, before you can Clearly and Distinctly Perceive it to be such?
A59238Or, Did it become True by your seeing it( as you phrase it) Clearly and Distinctly to be True?
A59238Or, Is there, indeed, any such Thing in Nature?
A59238Or, What was the Rule of Truth to that Object that was True, ere you saw it to be such?
A59238Suppose I see a Man making great Holes in the Ground, or throwing aside Rubbish; and that I ask him what he is doing?
A59238The Question is, Which of us has this True Evidence, which you call Clear and Distinct Perception?
A59238What signifie these, I say, to the Truth of the Thing?
A59238What signifies yours, or mine, or any Man''s Iudgment, that he Clearly and Distinctly sees a Truth; or, that he must Assent, or may not Assent to it?
A59238Whence, we ask, What was that which made the Object you perceiv''d- to- be- true, to be True?
A59238Where, then, shall we certainly find this One, or only- True Philosophy?
A59238Whether Mathematicians, and some others, who treat of Philosophy in a Mathematical Method, have not propos''d such before me, and made use of them?
A59238Whether such Propositions are not the most- firmly- Grounded, and the First of all others?
A59238Whether there be not such Propositions; as those I call Identical?
A59238Whether they are not Self- evident, and force the Assent of all Mankind?
A59238Why so?
A5922020. or what can establish him in his Assent of Faith, if that do not?
A592203ly, then I would ask, whether the Firmness of this Assent which he says here Moral Certainty implies, be taken from the Object, or from the Subject?
A59220Again, what is meant here by[ Divine Revelation?]
A59220But how will it appear that''t is so easily determinable by common Reason, which is the right Rule of Faith?
A59220But, where are the Premisses or Principles which are to infer it?
A59220Can the Ma ● ● er and the Man the Mistress and her Maid understand one another?
A59220Did ever Logick and Common Sense go thus to wrack?
A59220For, first, who did ever pretend to an infallibility equal to what was in Christ or his Apostles, as his words import?
A59220For, suppose we granted that there can be no necessity of an Infallible Society of men to do that which can be done as well without them?
A59220How Honourable and Creditable had it been to his Cause, and to himself too as a Writer?
A59220I wonder exceedingly where the Dr. ● earn''t this notion of Certainty?
A59220IS it possible then that Errour can admit Principles?
A59220If any, why does he not show us them, and relate to them?
A59220If it concludes, why does he not say Faith is absolutely Certain, but mince it with Moral?
A59220If then it have none, why does he put it for a Conclusion, and so pretend he has concluded it?
A59220Is it not evident he may change if he may see true Reason may be brought against it?
A59220Is not a will as Certainly a will, and Liberty as necessarily Liberty as a Triangle is a Triangle?
A59220Must every bold and unprov''d saying, and which begs the whole Question, be cal''d a Conclusion whether it have any Principles or no to prove it by?
A59220Next, what mean those words[ for some Ages before Christ?]
A59220Now, who sees not how wonderful an Ascendent both these, if verify''d, must needs have over Christian hearts?
A59220Or( which is equivalent) that Truth can not admit any, but must be quite destitute of such firm Supports?
A59220Or, must we needs conclude that all those learned Enquirers found in each of those vast different parties are mad or Insincere?
A59220Reason or memory; I ask what means this disjunctive promise, either of not erring or not being damn''d for it?
A59220That Christ said thus, and did such and such miracles to testify the truth of his doctrine, or that the H. Ghost inspir''d them?
A59220Well, put this Consideration in men, are any of them by vertue thereof yet Infallible, or secur''d from erring in understanding Scripture?
A59220What if to disown such Doctrines be not to question God''s Veracity?
A59220how Agreeable to Reason and the nature of Certainty as all Mankind understands it; which now is most Irrational and Unsuitable to the same Nature?
A59220how he will be defeated?
A59220or in First Principles, as Aequale est aequale sibi, An Equal equal to it self?
A59220reveal so plainly the whole will of God, that no sober Enquirer can miss of what is necessary for salvation?
A59230And how can you, of all Men, suppose he is?
A59230And pray what more direct or more full Answer can there be to an Argument, than to deny the Premises?
A59230And pray where does it appear that Mr. G. is oblig''d not to deny that the Greek Church has err''d in matters of Faith?
A59230And there may be vanity too in our Case, for ought I know: But where shall it be lodg''d?
A59230And was not the Question plainly of the Certainty of this, and of All this more?
A59230And what do you more than e''en leave them to draw Cuts, and venture their Souls as handy- dandy shall decide, for you or Mr. G.?
A59230And what reason have you to desire it?
A59230And who shall see through the Mists which these Disputes will raise?
A59230And will any Notwithstanding unprove it again?
A59230And will not the Happiness or Misery of their Souls for ever depend on that Account?
A59230And will you assume that the Greek Church errs, who believe she does not?
A59230And would you have what you say pass for an Answer?
A59230And your Answer that They are?
A59230Are you a Socinian, an Arian, a Sabellian, an Eutychian,& c. or what are you?
A59230Are you a whole, or a half, or a Quarter- nine- and thirty- Article Man?
A59230Argument than your Instance?
A59230As every thing is true, and every thing clear; who now besides your self would have thought of an evasion from it?
A59230But could you not have afforded to inform us likewise by what he was satisfi''d?
A59230But is it so much as an Argument ad hominem?
A59230But pray what difference betwixt Heresie and Error in matter of Faith?
A59230But, why should I vex you with putting you upon manifest Impossibilities?
A59230Did our Saviour teach, and do Protestants believe no more, than that the Book so call''d is Scripture?
A59230Do you do any such matter?
A59230Do you so much as go about it?
A59230Do you take them for Snares, or Fences, and when for the one, and when for the other, and wherefore?
A59230For, pray, did Christ teach any Error?
A59230Has Peter Twenty pounds in his Purse, because Paul can not prove he has not?
A59230If it did?
A59230In the mean time why has not Mr. G. done already as much as should be done?
A59230In these words of yours( p. 7)[ As to the Rule of our Faith] give me leave to reflect on the word[ OVR,] and thence to ask you, who are YOV?
A59230Is Certainty of this more, and Certainty of this Book all one?
A59230Must you be minded that an Arguer is to prove his Conclusion, and an Answerer to shew he does not, by assigning where and how he fails?
A59230Must you be minded that the Business must be stopt before it come to the Conclusion, and that otherwise there is no speaking against it?
A59230Notwithstanding?
A59230Or, ever the more Title to an Estate, because an Adversary may have the ill luck to be Non- suited?
A59230Pray what assistance do you afford them to determin either way?
A59230Pray, how comes Mr. G. to lye under an Obligation, from which Men of Reputation in his own Communion are exempt?
A59230The best way, say you?
A59230What are People the wiser now?
A59230What reason has Mr. G. to prove it a second time?
A59230When a Father believ''d what Christ taught him, and the Son what the Father believ''d, did not the Son too believe what Christ taught?
A59230When a Truth is once prov''d, is it not prov''d, notwithstanding all Objections?
A59230Why do you think it is with Arguments as with Writs, where the want of a Non obstante spoils all?
A59230Why, suppose Mr. G. could not prove that Protestants are not Certain, are they therefore Certain?
A59230Will it shew us, that a Cause can be without its Effect, or an Effect without its Cause?
A59230Will it shew us, that a thing can be and not be at once?
A59230Will it shew us, that a thing which can not possibly be chang''d, may yet possibly remain not the same?
A59230Will your Notwithstanding shew us there was a time in which Men were not Men, nor acted like Men?
A59230and what wants it, save bare Application, to conclude what was intended as fully and as rigorously as you can desire?
A59230and which shall they be for; the Argument or the Instance?
A592324thly, What is all this to Science, or to our purpose?
A59232Again, since the Intention of Mankind in asking Where a Thing is?
A59232Again; is not GOD Omnipotent?
A59232And did he not evidently inferr this to be True, because all else might be doubted of?
A59232And why?
A59232And, how far must this go on?
A59232But how can this cohere?
A59232But if you ask, When was the first Olympiad?
A59232But is not the Knowledge of this Method insuperably hard to be attain''d?
A59232But now, where is that Authour who has hitherto made such an Useful and Necessary Attempt?
A59232But, how can we shew that Middle Term is really connected with those Two other Terms in the Premisses?
A59232But, what if that Middle term be not the same with its own self, but Divided within it self?
A59232But, what means then the Illative particle[ Ergo] or what sense bears it?
A59232Can any man deny but that this is the same Thing, or the same Tree it was at first?
A59232Examples of the Questions proper to Quality are such as these: How do you?
A59232For instance; To what purpose are his many Distinctions of his Propositions, especially those he calls Exponibiles?
A59232For was not all that anteceded to the finding it so many Discourses or Reasonings?
A59232How is he affected to me?
A59232How is he as to his Understanding?
A59232How is he as to his Walking, or using his Natural Faculties?
A59232How is the Milk that''s over the Fire, or the Bread in the Oven?
A59232If not, to what purpose did he pretend he might doubt of all else?
A59232Lastly, it may be ask''d, How he is as to his outward shape?
A59232Or why does Mankind use such a needless Tautology?
A59232Or, if they say there is, then to know of them in what that Evidence consists, or how it comes to be more Evident?
A59232Or, what Cause in the World but produces such Effects as are sutable to its Nature?
A59232Or, why did himself in his Third Meditation say expresly,[ Ex eo quod dubito SEQUITUR me esse?]
A59232Our Discourse here abstracts from that Question, Whether sensible Qualities are Inherent in the Object or in the 〈 ◊ 〉?
A59232The Questions of Quando, and their proper Answers, are such as these; When was Christ born?
A59232This needs no farther Proof?
A59232To show which we ask, Are all his Atomes of the same Matter?
A59232We enquire next in what consists this Modification or Affection of it call''d Density?
A59232What Tree but bears the Fruit Proper to its Kind?
A59232When did Mustapha the Turkish Emperor begin his Reign?
A59232When will there be a Leap- year?
A59232Whence we may have occasion to ask farther what is a Man?
A59232Where is England?
A59232Where is Europe?
A59232Where is Holborn?
A59232Where is London?
A59232Where is that Kings- street?
A59232Where, or in what Place, lives Dr. H.?
A59232Which Discourse may be apply''d to those who ask, How, or by what means, the Soul and Body were United or made One Thing?
A59232Why are we afraid of Sinning, but for fear of losing GOD''s Favour, and of a Friend making him become our Enemy?
A59232Why is[ Infallible] then added to[ Certainty] if it have no Different Signification from it, or do not add some degree of Certainty to it?
A59232Why then must the Senses be quite discarded as Useless Servants for Knowledge, and be branded for constant Lyers and Deceivers?
A59232Will any but a Heretick deny this?
A59232all of them being Equally in the Books?
A59232can not he do all things?
A59232or how they will explicate it?
A59232or no?
A59232that is, whether after the Composition there remains only One Actual Thing, or Many Actual Things or Entities?
A59242And what Catholick alive will presume to say this?
A59242And what needs Princes desire any greater security( say they) what need they trouble themselves with their Subjects speculative opinions?
A59242And why not good for the Catholick cause?
A59242But alas how groundless is such a fear?
A59242But do not Protestants fear him too?
A59242For by granting only so much, it will necessarily follow?
A59242For( saies he) what needs any oath at all to detect who are Roman Catholicks?
A59242Hereto his adversary is brought in replying And what for Excommunications and absolutions, be they in the princes power also?
A59242How comes it then to pass that they can in England swear that the King is supreme Head and Governour in all causes Ecclesiastical or spirituall?
A59242Is it because the Oath of Supremacy has so peculiar a conformity to their principles, and that of Allegiance to their practises?
A59242Now what Christian at this day alive will make these two Recognitions in the sence aforesaid?
A59242Now who will believe such an Oath as this?
A59242Or rather will they not be esteemed for such an oaths sake, resolved to be disloyal both to God and man?
A59242This is known at Rome and all Christendom over; and yet who dare impute Heresy to them?
A59242Though how can Equivocation be excluded, when according to them one Equivocation may be renounced by another?
A59242What apprehension have the Kings of France, Spain, or the State of Venice from such promises?
A59242What then can be imagined more necessary for a cure to so great a confusion, then to change such inefficacious instruments of Loyalty?
A59242Who can reconcile these things together in such a sence?
A59242Why?
A59242Will he require some to be obedient to Bishops as instituted by Christ, and others to renounce them as Antichristian?
A59242Yea what English Protestant will be willing to make even the Negative Recognition?
A59242or that they are so ready, and pressing to disclaim and condemn all that themselves have done these last twenty years?
A59229Again, is it clear out of the Citations nakedly set down, what went before and after?
A59229Ah, Sr, do you know what you ask?
A59229And can you do mee a greater Kindness than to discover this, and bee so highly concern''d for it?
A59229And how must we evidence the Connexion of the Terms( or of the Subject and Predicate) in these First Principles?
A59229And in what consists this Self Evidence?
A59229And is it not as impossible in the Church of England?
A59229And what do such Discourses rely on formally?
A59229And who would not bee angry, fume and take on against a Discourse which is likely to devest you of so considerable and beneficiall a Prerogative?
A59229And why I pray?
A59229And why?
A59229And, are not you rarely qualify''d to bee an Impugner of my Book, who are so perfectly to seek in knowing what''s the main end it drives at?
A59229And, has hee not good reason?
A59229And, what motive proceed those Divines upon in these Censures?
A59229By another antecedent connexion of those Terms with a Third?
A59229By finding another medium connected with them: And how far must this go on?
A59229Can you really and in your heart think they were intended against the Protestants, that you set your selves so formally to answer them?
A59229Did Christ teach it by reading it in a written Book?
A59229Do these words[ Authority of the Catholick Church] mean the Book of Scriptures?
A59229Endlesly, or no?
A59229I beseech you, Sir, what say you to this Discourse?
A59229I know, Sir, you will fume at this usage of your Testimonies: but with what reason?
A59229I was going, Sir, to use your own words, and to ask with what face you could pretend this?
A59229Is Faiths coming down by Ancestours the same as coming down by a book?
A59229Is here any liberall acknowledgment that no man can desert Tradition?
A59229Is here the word Tradition pretended Indifferent and apt to bee taken ambiguously?
A59229Is it clear to every man''s Eyes and Reason, none of these or other faults render all yours Inefficacious?
A59229Is not here enough to signifie unwritten Tradition?
A59229Is not this a strange mistake?
A59229Is universall consent and most grave Authority of all nations, the book of Scripture or written Tradition?
A59229Lord?
A59229Might not any of them come to receive the Communion, if hee would?
A59229My words in that place cited are these?
A59229Nay, do not they often mean by Scripture the very Sence of it, that is Christs Doctrine or the Gospel?
A59229Of what nature are they?
A59229On Tradition?
A59229Or can I desire more then this Father offers mee in express terms?
A59229Or is there a word here to that purpose?
A59229Pray you, Sir, is this the Temper of your Church of England?
A59229Shall I bee bold to tell you, Sir, what is Self confidence?
A59229Sir, where are your thoughts wandring?
A59229Tell mee then, dost not find thy Expectation deluded, which, Sure- footing had rais''d, and our Controversie begin to slide back into petty squabbles?
A59229This being so what was hee concern''d to transcribe the whole large Testimony, no wrong being done to them?
A59229Thus you answer''d my First Discourse, the most solid and most Fundamentall part of my Book?
A59229Well, but what are those other places which must prove mee a liberal Acknowledger of such an unheard of Paradox?
A59229What Mephostophilus reveals these secrets to you?
A59229What means the world[ at present] but that the Tradition of the Apostles is yet vigorous and fresh in the Church?
A59229Why should I?
A59229You ask how an Apostle and Evangelist should bee more present by the Scripture ascertain''d as to words and Sence then by or all Tradition?
A59229You end with a Glance or two at my Self- confidence?
A59229You''l ask, where lies the Fault in such cases?
A59229and how do you make them?
A59229and not rather Assertions of so many nations, or Consent of nations, and Authority of the Catholik Church, of force to cause Faith and Assu rance?
A59229commonly us''d by the Fathers to signify to us the Scriptures?
A59229or a greater Testimony that you are to seek for an Answer to it then the strange Evasion you substitute instead of a reply?
A59229or has any discipline past upon him to debar him from being admitted?
A59229or what''s the Nominative Case in that clause[ is to mee sufficient] to the word is?
A59241Again, does he not intend to conclude''t is a Truth, that this is the Letter and Sence of Scripture?
A59241Also that the Common Maxims of Morality are as self- evident to Humane Nature as any First Principles in the World?
A59241Am not I sure I shall never repeat in the same order all the words I have spoken this last year?
A59241And can a Motive or Reason possible to be False, ever induce in true Reason such an Obligation, or work rationally such an Effect?
A59241And how far must this go on?
A59241And how must we evidence the Connexion of the Terms( or of the Subject and Predicate) in these First Principles?
A59241And in what consists this self- evidence?
A59241And is not Faith it self by these Grounds left in the same pickle?
A59241And so the business is done; for why should he take pains to give answer to that which deserves none; or, if it did, is answered?
A59241And what is it to Assent?
A59241And when he hath done, he asks if any man be the wiser for all this?
A59241And why does not he produce it?
A59241But I may blush( he says) and what''s the Crime?
A59241But can Dr. T. seriously think these words to be indeed so hard as he pretends?
A59241But how does Dr. T. clear himself of this Charge of mine, or how comes he off from his own words?
A59241But how shall this be prov''d?
A59241But is it so clear that I oppose no body he knows of in proving that what is True, is Impossible to be False?
A59241But pray where did I ever pretend''t is unpossible there should have been any deviation from Tradition?
A59241But what have I to do with the Persons?
A59241But why must First Principles be necessarily exprest with that most perfectly- formal Identity?
A59241By another Antecedent Connexion of their Terms with a Third?
A59241Can any thing be produc''d more expresly abetting my way of Discoursing the Grounds of Faith?
A59241Does Dr. T. find such a disagreement amongst men Learned in the Mathematicks, in the understanding the Axioms and Definitions of Euclid?
A59241Does not every Oratour know that the Style due to a Sermon and a strict Discourse of close Reason, are the most different imaginable?
A59241Does not he know one Dr. T.?
A59241Endlesly, or no?
A59241He asks, If this be true, what need then of my Infallibility of Pope or Council?
A59241He likens it to the Coptick and Slavonian Language, talks of Astrology, Palmistry, Chymistry, and what not?
A59241Here are many things worth remark if one had leasure: And first, what means an undoubted Assent?
A59241How can he do this unless he shews the Conclusion necessarily follows?
A59241How should it be?
A59241How then?
A59241How will he prove any thing to be a Contradiction?
A59241How?
A59241I beseech you, Gentlemen, is it the fashion in the Univeesities to solve Arguments on this manner?
A59241If he say''T is not: I ask him what First Truth or Principle I wrong by making that which is Free to be Not Free?
A59241If these men then be not indeed or in True Speech, Christians, what must we call them?
A59241Is he afraid clear Evidences and sensible Demonstrations will not necessarily conclude?
A59241Is it by means of their being materially the same, or the same with a Third?
A59241Is it not enough the Sence be the same, as is found in Definitions, but the Words must be the same also?
A59241Is it not his intent in his Discourses to Conclude ▪ what he speaks of?
A59241Is it possible there should be found among Mankind a Writer so weak, as to put that for a plain Reason which is so plainly contrary to common Sence?
A59241Is it so plain that all Mankind may be deceiv''d in their Sensations, on which kind of Knowledge Authority or Testimony is built?
A59241Is it then by their being the same with one another immediately, or of the same most formal notion?
A59241Is not the Will Free?
A59241Is there any necessity for such a ridiculous perplexing and inconclusive method, when we may vouch we have Clear Evidences and Demonstrations?
A59241Is there then any other way left for these Terms to cohere, which is neither by themselves immediately, nor by a Third?
A59241Lastly, Is Are needless because there is Nature?
A59241Lastly, how does Dr. T. know my Style, were I to make a Sermon?
A59241Might not any one write a Book of such Jargon and call it Demonstration?
A59241Or the Subject and Predicate be put in the self- same words?
A59241To this then after his sufficient consideration, What sayes the Dr.?
A59241To this was joyned( for why should I be ashamed to acknowledge my Poverty, into which that Persecution had driven me?)
A59241Was Drollery ever till now held a Convictive, or a Jeer a Demonstration?
A59241Was it not enough to answer the Reasons, and let the World judge?
A59241Were it not a wise business now upon so simple a Reason to judge that the Stars are undoubtedly Odd?
A59241What then is become of those famous words,[ It is possible all this may be otherwise;] which were onely objected?
A59241What would he have?
A59241Where is this Third Term to prove it?
A59241Where, good Dr?
A59241Which bears a show of ridiculousness, and seems to admit of no possibility of advance towards new Knowledges?
A59241Would any Reader suspect this serious clutter of words should be both untrue, and nothing to purpose besides?
A59241and in forty other places to make the Droll supply the Divine?
A59241or did the commonest Reason ever thus go wrack?
A59248''T is left then that he must pretend he will demonstrate some former Age has err''d; How I wonder?
A592483 ly, Are those Testimonies( and the like may be said of Scripture- proofs) evidently against the present Church, or no?
A59248Again, I ask might you not have mistaken the true Sence without those Human Maxims?
A59248Again, I would ask whether the Trinity be not Evident in Scripture, and the Socinians wilful for denying it?
A59248Again, does not he know all the Catholick Church allow more a thousand times to It than to all the Schoolmen in the World?
A59248Ask him farther; Is there not a necessary Connexion and Relation between such a constant Cause and its formal Effect?
A59248But how know we who began to desert that Rule, and who ever held to it; or that it was ever held to by any?
A59248But how shall we know who enjoyes this Tradition, or what points have been handed down by it from the beginning?
A59248But what were they oblig''d to when they were grown up to ripeness of Judgement?
A59248But who am I that I should attempt such a change in the method of Controversy, or think my self a fit proposer or presser of it?
A59248But why insist I thus on so poor a foolery in a Book I design''d for solid?
A59248But, in case it were deliver''d as ascertain''d by their Senses, to have been taught by the Apostles, what imaginable reason can they have of doubt?
A59248But, where shall I seek those happiest Effects and noblest Arguments of Truth?
A59248But, will you see you still hold Reason your Rule, notwithstanding you cry up the Written word?
A59248By Principles of Faith?
A59248By Principles of Human Science?
A59248By what helps or means?
A59248By what manner?
A59248Can he Demonstrate the exact conformity of its Letter from Copy to Copy, and Translation to Translation, and this up to the very Original?
A59248Can he bring an ampler or Certainer living Authority for the contrary?
A59248Can the ruder sort either know this or be assured of the skill of others by which they know it?
A59248Cur?
A59248Did he never hear of such a thing as the Council of Trent?
A59248Do then these skills clear the Letter of Scripture, that is, make known Gods Sence to you?
A59248Does he mean we hold them oblig''d to cut their Beards, or wear such Garters and Hatbands as their Fore- fathers did?
A59248Does he think Faith being planted in Human, that is Rational, Nature will not propagate it self into consequent and subordinate Tenets and Practices?
A59248Does it evidently speak of Faith or Manners; the universal Church, or particular persons; that is, some Hereticks?
A59248Does it suppose this Degeneracy already past( which is onely proper to your purpose) or yet to come?
A59248Especially, since the performing ● evaricating from that Duty is of equal concern 〈 ◊ 〉 Themselves?
A59248Find you not there expresly that God has hands, feet, nostrils and passions like ours, and this in clear terms?
A59248For, how should either of these be guided by what they neither see nor know?
A59248For, whence hapned it that it seem''d so to him when it was not such?
A59248From Perfection in Science in that particular?
A59248He asks how you are certain that Book is God''s word?
A59248He asks therefore whether he is bound to believe what the present Church delivers to be Infallible?
A59248His raw words reach no farther: What means the word JUST?
A59248How can that be in your Grounds antecedently to the known Sence of the Scripture?
A59248How far are you wide of the Truth?
A59248How strangely wide he roves from the mark?
A59248I ask, is it as plain?
A59248If he does, he must hold it was Eternal; If not, how unconsonant is his parallel?
A59248If so, I ask whether this be clearer in Scripture than that God has hands, feet, nostrils and passions like ours?
A59248In the former we have it told a General Council what their proper task is; namely to keep or hold fast what was believ''d and kept; and how?
A59248Let any man, I say, go about to demonstrate all these difficult Points ro those acute men and will they not smile at his endeavors?
A59248Let us proceed?
A59248No surely; for then he had not miscarry''d: From the Imperfectness of his Science?
A59248Nonne vos magis pluris estis volatilibus caeli?
A59248Nor does Mr. Stillingfleet question this: But, were their Children oblig''d to believe them?
A59248Or for those, Nunquid de bobus cura est Deo?
A59248Or is it so hard to finde it?
A59248Or rather does not Nature most strongly carry them to the contrary?
A59248Pray who must be Judge it is so Evident in Scripture as to render the Dissenters guilty of flat Wilfulness?
A59248Quando?
A59248Quibus auxiliis?
A59248Quid?
A59248Quis?
A59248Quomodo?
A59248Secondly, is it a Fundamental that Christ is God?
A59248That is, does it say there must be a Total Apostasie in Faith before the Year 1664?
A59248The Bishops, or your Church?
A59248Then he ought the more to have believ''d: From Precipitancy?
A59248Vbi?
A59248W ● not the Trinity, Incarnation and other points 〈 ◊ 〉 which we agree held in all Ages since Christ by Gods Church?
A59248Was it some piece of Skill or a Speculative Opinion depending on the Goodness or Badness of the Ancestors knowledge?
A59248Wearing their clothes, or building their houses?
A59248What Evidence can you bring to convince me both that the Church alwayes observ''d this Rule, and could never be deceiv''d in it?
A59248What do you think Controversy is?
A59248What is it then that we affirm the later Ages oblig''d to hold and act as their Forefathers held and acted?
A59248What is it then?
A59248What means the word ALL?
A59248What need he counterfeit this puzzle?
A59248What thing was it which was deliver''d or Testify''d?
A59248What''s now become of your difficulty?
A59248When was this matter of Fact or Preaching this doctrin performed?
A59248When?
A59248Where shall he have it?
A59248Where then may I hope to meet those excellent Forms vested with Bodies?
A59248Where''s his Reason?
A59248Why are they then so kindly dealt with?
A59248Why is it not then a point of Faith?
A59248Why was this doctrin of Christs taught and practic''t?
A59248Will he bring Demonstration against the Point?
A59248Will he recur to Traditions help?
A59248Will you see one Example of our Superficialness and Mr. Stillingfleet''s Solidness?
A59248Yes very well; How comes it then that he runs to some Schoolmen, and neglects the Church speaking in her Representative?
A59248Yet how much of his Book would need no Answer, were this Impertinent Topick laid aside?
A59248You see then these Witnesses have power to propose such an Object as can oblige to Belief?
A59248if not, it can not overthrow the title of This to be a point of Faith: If as plain, why should you not believe both?
A59248or what advantage can I gain to my cause by so sleight an Animadversion?
A59248or, that there were not some in those dayes which never came to our knowledge, different from ours in the very point between us?
A59247Again, Let us ask what Colour or Figure it is of?
A59247Again, since the Bodies are put to cause them, how can we think they are nothing like them?
A59247And I did really intend that Sceptical Men should ask, — Quid profert dignum tanto promissor hiatu?
A59247And is not this enough?
A59247And this gives an Entire Satisfaction to every Man who is capable of Knowing Common Morality,( as, who is not?)
A59247And, Who sees not, that, from this Proposition, Every Man is Rational, it follows, that Peter, John, and each particular Man, is Rational?
A59247And, whence must we take those Differences?
A59247Are they Corporeal, or are they Spiritual, or under what Head shall we rank them?
A59247BUT how can the Things be in our Understanding?
A59247Besides, what should the Soul do with two Material Comparts; one, Organical; the other, Inorganical?
A59247But what needs more than meerly his ascribing Materiality to it, at least, permitting it to belong to it?
A59247But, if no Evidence can be had, what Necessity is there at all of Judging one way or other?
A59247But, should any Sceptick ask why the Idea of Yellow is the Idea of Yellow?
A59247But, suppose this so; why must General Maxims be held Dangerous and Faulty, when the Fault Confessedly lies in other Things?
A59247But, what Good can this do to any, but to such as have renounc''d Common Sense, even to Ridiculousness?
A59247But; what needs any more, since Mr. Locke has already Confuted that Position beyond possibility of any Rational Reply?
A59247Can any Man think that Art and Reflexion do add no Advantage to Untaught Nature?
A59247Can not we suspend our Judgment till Evidence appears; or whether it does ever appear, or not?
A59247Can the Memory be said to Retain what is not?
A59247Does the Mind see the Thing without, by sending out her Rayes of Knowledge to it?
A59247First, If it were the same in Sense, where''s the Harm?
A59247For( to wave my former Proofs) I ask him whence he had first the Notion or Idea of Space?
A59247For, First, What other Reason had they from Nature to put such a Power in the Soul?
A59247For, what are Names, but the Words which signifie those Ideas?
A59247From other Common Heads?
A59247He ask''d, Why?
A59247He is too acute to hold Innate Ideas: It was Acquir''d then, or wrought in him; And by what, but by the Thing, that is, by the Body?
A59247How many are there in the world who are reputed for Learned men, and yet have no Principles which are not taken from Fancy?
A59247How many ways does he distort, wind, turn, poize, stretch, and ply the parts of his Body?
A59247I answer; What have we to do with Ideas when we Predicate?
A59247I ask, Is the Idea of Extension, as to its Representation, in all Respects like that Mode as it is in the Thing; or is it not?
A59247I ask, whether, by his Thought, he means his Judgment?
A59247I grant, that whole Complexion is not knowable by us in this State: But, why have not we as much Knowledge of them as is necessary for us?
A59247I infer; therefore without it, we should not have had so Clear a Knowledge of the Proof, nor consequently of the Conclusion; and is this nothing?
A59247If in it, the old Question returns, How got they thither?
A59247If out of it, How could the Soul''s Acts of Understanding, which are Immanent Acts, become Transitive, and affect a Thing which is without her?
A59247If then we have an Idea or Likeness of Universality, or Generality, What is it like?
A59247If this be true, why are they call''d[ Ideas,] which either signifies Resemblances, or Nothing?
A59247In Answer; First, I ask how he knows God would keep the next Bodies, in that Case, from Closing?
A59247In like manner, should he ask why a Man is a Man?
A59247In order to which I ask the Ideists, Whether the Modes or Accidents are Distinct Entities from the Substance or Thing?
A59247Is Reviving the Notion of Retaining, they being rather of a Contrary Sense to one another?
A59247Is it Blew, Green, or Yellow?
A59247Is it Rare or Dense, Hot, Cold, Moist, or Dry?
A59247Is it Round, Four- square, or Triangular?
A59247Is it a Yard in Length, or but an Inch?
A59247Is it as Thick as a Wall, or as Thin as a Wafer?
A59247Is it as little as a Barly- corn, or as big as a House?
A59247Lastly, Are those Species they put, when purify''d, perfectly like the Thing, or imperfectly?
A59247Lastly, What means his making it then to be Judgment, when we have no Demonstrative Evidence?
A59247Lastly, What means this Power in the Mind to revive Perceptions?
A59247Lastly, What needs this Circumlocution?
A59247May we not as well say we may see Light, and yet have no Notion of it?
A59247May we not judge a Conclusion that is Demonstrated to be True, because it is Demonstrated?
A59247Must they hover still in these few common Heads of Notions?
A59247Neither can this be said, for the Mind could see or know the Thing it self were it in it, else how could it know the Ideas?
A59247Next, how can we know that those Ideas move regularly, and not rather very differently, in diverse Men?
A59247Next, how does it follow, that, because we can not explicate it, we do not know it?
A59247Now, if this be so, why can not they satisfie and instruct Rational Men, and conduce to quiet and fix their Judgment, as well as to Nonplus Wranglers?
A59247Now, things standing thus, who can think Logick, or Syllogism( the main End of it,) are to be slighted as of little or no use?
A59247Now, what sense can we make of an Idea of an Idea, or what means a Similitude of a Similitude, or an Image of an Image?
A59247Now, who can think, that meerly to be at Ease, is this Greatest Good; or the Motive, Object, End, or Determiner of the Will?
A59247On the other side; How facil and natural is my Way of our gaining an Idea or Notion of Infinite?
A59247Or can Remembring be conceived to be the same Notion with Reproduction?
A59247Or can there be a Repository of Nothing?
A59247Or rather if so many, why no more?
A59247Or that an Identical Proposition is True, because''t is Self- evident?
A59247Or that no Intrinsecal Predicate instructs, but only what is Extrinsecal to any Nature?
A59247Or what means it to say, he intends[ Man] by those many Words, and yet would not have it thought so?
A59247Or what other thing was it good for, but to purifie the Species?
A59247Or who bids us Judge at all till we see a good( or Conclusive) Reason why?
A59247Or, if they be not signify''d by the Word[ Man,] how is the Proposition True?
A59247Or, that, when they strike the Eye, they stop there, and are not carry''d into the Brain?
A59247Otherwise, why could not these do it as well as General Maxims?
A59247Secondly, Were those Phantasms, before they were Spiritualiz''d, in the Soul, or Intellectus, or out of it?
A59247So, Mr. Locke asks, If God should place a Man at the Extremity of Corporeal Beings, whether he could not stretch out his Hand beyond his Body?
A59247That, to Unman our selves, so as to seem Crack''d- Brain''d, or Drunk, is the Way to become Soberly Rational?
A59247The Proper Opposite to Probable, is Improbable; and, what has Improbable to do with Absolute?
A59247The Question then is, What is the Proper Subject of Light?
A59247This perform''d, what are they to do next?
A59247Upon my Delay, they call''d me again, and ask''d, Why I came not, having promis''d it?
A59247What Feats of Activity does a Rope- dancer show us?
A59247Where then shall we fix the Bounds, or whence take any Certain Measures of Greater and Lesser Probabilities?
A59247Whether it be not probable, that Thinking is the Action, and not the Essence of the Soul?
A59247Why are we in such hast to hazard falling into Error?
A59247Without which, what do we know?
A59247a Cloth, Board, or Paper, thus figured and colour''d?
A59247how few Men are there, who will profess to Demonstrate in Philosophy, or to reduce their Discourses to Evidence?
A5925110. Who could justly suspect, that this innocent, this piously zealous proceeding, should beget an adversary in print?
A592514. with Tantoene animis coelestibus irae?
A59251A Doctrine which they beleeved to have been delivered with as firm and constant an Authority, as any other whatsoever?
A59251And do you not know, Sir, this new Doctrine fights against the known Laws of your Country?
A59251And doth not this Doctrine evacuate all the fear of Purgatory, Judgment and Hell too?
A59251And hath not your admired Master made a fair hand of it?
A59251And how came these immediately insuing words, to escape his wary Pen, That the Soul without them were more imperfect?
A59251And if Angels can thus Act on Angels, without this interposition of a body, why not on separated souls?
A59251And indeed who ever fanfied that the soul could thus be identified, or become the very self- same thing, with the body?
A59251And is this all?
A59251And secondly, Whether this his new Question of Charity, was there disputed and setled by this our Bull and Council?
A59251And shall this new School have the confidence, against all mens experience, thus to give the Lye to the Consciences of the whole Christian world?
A59251And the Iudg reply; and do not you know, that wilfully you inhere to holy Scriptures?
A59251And we having, touched something of his new Hell, why should we not see how his A ● amantine Chain reaches to Heaven too?
A59251And were it not worth my Readers pains to see, and satiate his soul, with the excellent Demonstration of this sacred Verity?
A59251And what then?
A59251And yet this was as pertinent, as your — Quid non mortalia pectora cogis?
A59251Are those very Affections which constitute Purgatory and Hell too, perfections of the Soul?
A59251As for example, the Divines dispute, Whether if the holy Ghost did not proceed from the Son, he would be distinguisht from the Son?
A59251But I beseech you Sir, how could those solid, cleer- sighted persons, give you the confidence to impose so grosly upon us?
A59251But how by this sudden, and unexpected Doctrin, all our apprehensions are changed in the sufferings of our B. Saviour?
A59251But is this the onely entertainment there?
A59251But this were tollerable, if this were All: Why should not every man enjoy his own thoughts?
A59251But what if this accelerating the day of Iudgment prove no advantage, no help at all to those distressed souls?
A59251Do you Sir promise this new light, of science, of Demonstration?
A59251Do you not know that words, do not signifie naturally, but by institution?
A59251Do you not know that you now fight against the Fathers and Monuments of Antiquity?
A59251Doth the holy Sacrifice of the Altar, which the Church hath defined to be Propitiatory even for the Dead, avail those distressed Souls nothing at all?
A59251First, Concerning the souls of Iust men, in which nothing remains to be purged, when they pass out of this life?
A59251For this question being proposed, Whether souls immediately upon separation, rectifie all their affections?
A59251For what an absurd Exposition of the Council would this be?
A59251For what can all the Councils prevail against a Demonstration?
A59251How then is not the soul divested of those base affections, when she passes out of the body, which have their source from this earthly habitation?
A59251How well doth this agree with that Principle of Nature, That we ought so to do to others, as we would have them do to us?
A59251I have often entertained my self with these thoughts, what a dangerous method Master White prescribed, and as now appears followed?
A59251If I deny it, will they not presently hiss me out?
A59251Is it perhaps, the intermitting at some times, or abating of the fury of their torments?
A59251It will justly fall under our consideration: First, Whether this our present Question of Purgatory were not then intended and defined?
A59251Let him fairly deliver us his sublime sense, in his own words: Whether our devotions assist those souls or no?
A59251Might not this excellent Sermon very well become a St. Austen or a St. Paul?
A59251Secondly, How frivolously he concludes, That the affections to corporal pleasures accompany the soul in her state of separation?
A59251Seventhly, Who ever rendred it Evident, that No Alteration can befall a separated Soul from any other Spirit, without the interposition of the Body?
A59251The Protestants face us down that we make Idols of ● ● ictures, against our own souls and knowledge: What impudence is this?
A59251The Question was, How many sorts of souls were admitted to the intuitive Vision of God before the general day of Judgment?
A59251Thirdly, Whoever fancied, That a separated soul shall be tormented with a vast grief, by reason corporal pleasures are now impossible to be injoyed?
A59251This doctrin presupposed, What can separated souls be concerned when the day of Judgment shall come?
A59251This puts all to a loss: For how shall it be known when Councils and Consistories apply themselves aright?
A59251What Goliath is this that exprobrates the Hoast of the Living God?
A59251What Physitian ever understood fully the Nature, the operations, the effects, of any one Herb, any one Simple?
A59251What benefit doe Separated Souls receive by them?
A59251What do you conceive of the holy Apostles?
A59251What do you think of Lumen Gloriae, the Light of Glory, which is farther required?
A59251What doctrin shall we have from you of the Saints in this life?
A59251What further mischief can we expect?
A59251What if God should again repair this thus annihilated soul?
A59251What if there were no body, no motion, no time at all, could not God create a Soul, and destroy it at his pleasure?
A59251What if we could obtain your new Master to plead on the behalf of that Faith we now maintain?
A59251What is Purgatory( says he to Catholicks) but that satisfaction for sins which the souls of those who depart this life suffer?
A59251What is it for the now great Trinobant to understand Men and Angels?
A59251What more sublime things are disputed in Theology, then Father, Son, Generation, Spiration, Nature, Person?
A59251What of the ever Blessed Virgin, even when she bore the Saviour of the world in her sacred womb?
A59251What of the holy Fathers ofx the old Law?
A59251What sense will this bear?
A59251What shall we hope for in his Theology, now he hath gotten this much nobler Title?
A59251What should we wonder at these Productions, which out of an absolutely erroneous Method, were hatched, and brought to light?
A59251What then is the effect of all our tears and prayers?
A59251What then was begotten in the souls of those holy Apostles and Disciples, who followed our B. Saviour by his Preaching?
A59251When is this purgation perfected, comp ● eated, ended?
A59251When then any controversie is to be decided, and a Council is summoned to declare our Faith; what course is then taken?
A59251Whether ever they divided this, from the rest of their Faith, and allowed it a less degree of assurance onely, as of Opinion?
A59251Whether he received it in his childhood, when he was first instructed in Christian belief, and which, till he now became a Doctor, he followed?
A59251Whether it were not their full perswasion?
A59251Whether the hastning of the day of Iudgment be any way beneficial to them?
A59251Who ever believed that now in this life, our Souls are really and truly our Bodies, and our Bodies are our Souls?
A59251Who ever comprehended the Composition, the Properties, or even the Essential notion of a Fly?
A59251Who ever was concerned or tormented, because he could not do that, which he knew to be impossible?
A59251Who ever was intollerably afflicted, because he could not Fly?
A59251Who hath rendred it evident that all this could be effected in one indivisible moment?
A59251Why should not this great Master be as happy as his own Imaginations, and the Applause of his Scholars can make him?
A59251Why should we then wonder, if we have a new Purgatory?
A59251Why should we trouble our heads any more with the Gospels, with Paul?
A59251Why then should we wonder at the Issues of this Brain?
A59251Will they not cry out to the faggot with me?
A59251Would n ● t the Church be unavoidably guilty of a ● upereminent Error, in a Doctrin which draws so much practice after it?
A59251Would not all Christians be justly charged with an intollerable folly?
A59251and that we have constantly heard, that souls are delivered out of Purgatory by these powerfull helps, before the Day of Iudgment?
A59251and trembling shunnest the Digbaean attempts?
A59251and what more powerful to ravish the whole affections of a soul, then the divine face of her Spouse?
A59251and yet your self had a ● winkling light of it p. 21. for having asked your friend, when you should see him in the Coantry?
A59251but where is this restriction?
A59251did all these injoy Beatitude, or were they imperfect in Charity?
A59251hath he not now compleately ended his work?
A59251is there still a higher Court, to which I may and ought to appeal, from their sentence, as to a superiour Iudg and Umpire over them?
A59251of the Baptist?
A59251or become an Angel?
A59251or did this Sun not dart forth his existencies as perfect Charity the immediate disposition to heaven required?
A59251or had she been less Perfect if she had passed out of this life, by perfect mortification without them?
A59251or how long do we hinder Fire and Sword?
A59251or is she then not her selfe because she is without them?
A59251or must it not of necessity have so?
A59251or render his body as incorruptible as a Diamond?
A59251say it is demonstrable, that Souls being purged are immediately in Heaven?
A59251that such an Author as you are first thrust out of the sacred Communion of the faithful, should expiate or pay for this his presumption with death?
A59251that you combate an immemorable custome?
A59251what did Peter, Paul, or Iohn, or our B. Saviour himself?
A59251what in particular of St. Paul, when he tels us, I live now not I, but Christ lives in me?
A59251what practise can we regulate by such Positions?
A59251will you pronounce, That never any Saint had perfectly regulated his affections but just in that very moment he passed out of this life?
A59250Again, by what Virtue or Power does it work it''s Effects, and how?
A59250Again, is the Essence or Nature of this Idea of Existence such that it is Essentially Existent, or not?
A59250Again, when''t is said,[ it is now become a Term of Art,] What means the word[ now?]
A59250And how can they expect such an Affront will not be resented by an Infinite Majesty?
A59250And why not?
A59250And why, but because''t is Hopeless and Impossible?
A59250And yet, what kind of Thing can it be?
A59250And, are all these Acquisitions worth nothing?
A59250BUT what shall the Unlearned Vulgar do in the mean time?
A59250Behold here the utmost to which meer Natural Reason could raise Souls immerst in Matter?
A59250But in what manner does this Third Person proceed from the other Two?
A59250But is this Form or Act, we call Goodness Formally in GOD?
A59250But must the Climax of BEING, stop in that lowest Degree of Entity, Base Matter?
A59250But, ● ow, or by what Vehicle, came the Knowledge of those Operations into thy Understanding?
A59250Can any Man hope to Byass a Iudge, whose Impartiality and Uprightness is Essential to Him?
A59250Can the Thing, stand for, or supply the place of it self?
A59250Can they deny that GOD Knows and Loves Himself?
A59250Can they say that the Deity does not Verifie those Distinct Notions, or that we say False when we attribute them to GOD?
A59250Can they say, That Distinction of the Substance, does not Particularize it, or ● ake Distinct Substances?
A59250Can they say, That tho''there be Distinction ▪ in GOD, yet it does not any way or under any Respect, make GOD Distinct?
A59250Can they say, That, tho''GOD Verifies them, yet there is no Distinction at all in GOD?
A59250Can they say, that Knower and Known, Lover and Loved, are not Distinct, and( in some sort) Opposite Notions?
A59250Discourse then being evidently such a Connexion of Propositions, I ask, In what Soil or Territory in Nature do Propositions grow?
A59250For did they ever lay any Self- Evident Principles, or build on them, as those to which those Proofs are finally reducible?
A59250For example; I would ask them what kind of Thing is this Pourtraiture or Idea of Existence?
A59250For inspiring us with good Thoughts, and pitching their Tents about us, to defend us from the Assaults and Fiery Darts of our Ghostly Enemy?
A59250For, let us ask all Mankind, and even the rudest Vulgar, how many Persons there are in such a Place?
A59250From what determinate Points in that Nothing which they call Vacuum, do they measure or rate the Perpendicularity of this Motion of theirs?
A59250Hence is farther shown, that to those who ask, How the Soul and Body come to be United?
A59250How can that Man pretend to love any thing, who loves not Him in whom are all Things?
A59250How can they?
A59250How lamely and imperfectly have ● e reacht it?
A59250How, then, and in what manner, ought they to bear themselves?
A59250I ask then, Is it by Chance that those Atomes were Self- Existent, as they pretend?
A59250If a Body, where dwells it in this habitable World?
A59250If a Spirit, is it a Created one or an Angel, or is it Increated?
A59250In that of Being?
A59250In what Sense, I beseech him, or according to what Notion or Respect do we hold He is Distinct?
A59250Is it Intelligent, or not- intelligent?
A59250Is it a Body, or a Spirit?
A59250Is it a Simple Body, or a Compound one?
A59250Is not this enough, will they say, for Salvation?
A59250Is not this, in effect, to give Truth it self the Lye?
A59250Is our Notion of Existence at least with propriety said of GOD?
A59250Let''s go on, and ask: Is our Notion of Ens predicated with Propriety of GOD?
A59250May they not then with equal reason say, that Gold verifies the Notions of Yellow, and Heavy, yet there is no Yellowness or Weightiness in Gold?
A59250Nor can these Qualities be there by some Material Representation or Resemblance; For what can resemble ▪ Dryness or Moistness?
A59250Now in our way, how impossible is it to oppose any such Difficulties?
A59250Now who sees not that such a thing as Respect is not to be found, nor has any place in Material Nature?
A59250Or can there need any Proxy for what is, it self, Present to the Mind?
A59250Or do our Catechisms now- a- days teach us Artificial Conceits?
A59250Or to love Himself, if he loves not his own only True Happiness?
A59250Or what Virtuoso had ever an Effectual Love or Wish to dig to the Center of the Earth, to make curious Observations of the Rarities found there?
A59250Or what ail''d them that they could not lie still, when nothing impell''d them?
A59250Or, by what parallel ● hall we illustrate it?
A59250Or, lastly, Who would care to lead a Holy Life, if He deem''d that GOD was not Holy Himself?
A59250Or, who can be so wickedly unmannerly, as to admit Voluntary Distractions, when he is fixing his Eye upon such ● Glorious Object?
A59250Quod si accepisti, quid gloriaris quasi non acceperis?
A59250Secondly, Whether these Particulars are not Three, and no more?
A59250Shall we compare it to the condition of a Child in the Womb on the one side, and of a perfect Man grown up to Rip ● Knowledge on the other?
A59250These Grounds laid, the Question now is, What is the Analogical Entity or Unity peculiar and Proper to Quantity as Distinct from the rest?
A59250They will ask why the Denying a Tenet, which is meerly Speculative, should be so hainously taken and severely resented?
A59250Thirdly, Whether those Three Particulars are not most fitly call''d[ Persons?]
A59250To come closer then; I ask, What is this Thing they call CHANCE?
A59250Was it by Chance, that they, or at least the main Body of them mov''d downwards, and not upwards, and this perpendicularly?
A59250We no sooner alter the Actual Being of a Thing, but we destroy it, and make it not- bee?
A59250What Figure it is of?
A59250What Greater Joy, since we know we must die, and that our Soul survives for ever, than to know where our Soul shall go to be Eternally Happy?
A59250What Man has a hearty Desire to climb to the Moon?
A59250What Respect ought we to show towards them for the Excellency rf their Nature, and their High Station in the Created Universe?
A59250What easier than to have a good Intention to pursue our own Happiness, and to do nothing that can make us lose it; and, by losing in undo our selves?
A59250What heart would not break in the midst of all Temptations, rather than Crucifie again so dear a Saviour?
A59250What is there of more Use than the Mathematicks?
A59250What kind of Place will fit it?
A59250What made them move at all?
A59250When I set my self to speculate or write, do I know before hand what New Thoughts I shall have, or what ● ● Former Thoughts will Dictate to me?
A59250Whether Square, Round, Cylindrical or Octogone?
A59250Whether it be Diaphanous or Opacous?
A59250Whether it be White or Black, or of some middle Colours?
A59250Whether it be as Hard as a Stone, or as Soft as Butter?
A59250Whether it sends out Effluviums or Particles of it''s own Nature, or no?
A59250Whether the Parts it has do stand Erect, or lean Sloping, or lie Flat?
A59250Who can be so Ungrateful as wilfully to offend and disoblige so kind a Benefactor?
A59250Who can chuse but be Astonisht, even to an Extasie, at such a Generous Goodness?
A59250Who is ready to pardon all our Sins at the first asking, if we heartily, sincerely and penitently ask it?
A59250Will they say these Distinct Substances, they being Spiritual or Intelligent, are not to be ● all''d[ PERSONS?]
A59250With whom then will these New Proselytes joyn hemselves in Prayet, Sacraments, Church- Government, and other such Concerns?
A59250especially, How should He have it still who has already Communicated it, or Parted with it all?]
A59250● ood- wink Him who is Essentially ALL- SEEING?
A59250● … ow shall we then frame any ● ● ● Conception of the Difference ● … en thy Former and this Future State?
A59240Again; Does he think there is no Connexion of Terms in other things, but only in these?
A59240Against all these strong Proofs of their being Conscious of, and( in what they could) Abetting to this Libel, what can they bring for themselves?
A59240And now, Gentlemen, is not this mighty Learned?
A59240And, Did not all the Learned World follow it, till Cartesius''s Time?
A59240And, by what Rule must I needs speak as he would have me?
A59240And, for what Reason does he impose it upon me, to hold such an Impious Tenet?
A59240And, if not; pray, What was your Aim in taking this Way, so Ungrateful to Sober Men, so Nauseous to the Learned, and so Unchristian in it self?
A59240And, now, where is all this Unheard of Arrogancy?
A59240And, why so?
A59240And, why?
A59240Are Moving more, or Moving less, Essential Differences of Body?
A59240Are not all Truths, the Objects of these Knowledges, Connected; but some of them stand at variance with one another?
A59240Are not these most Profound Principles?
A59240Are you stupid, that you sit studying here, Unconcern''d, when you are proclaim''d a Heretick all over the Town?
A59240But with what Reason?
A59240But, Gentlemen, to what end were all these Objections huddl''d together, in their Preface, and Dialogue?
A59240But, How?
A59240But, What kind of Form is the Soul then?
A59240But, could he have more discover''d his own Ignorance, than to call the Knowledge of Men in the Moon, and Planetary- Men, Astronomical Observations?
A59240But, does he reply to my Answer, tho''never so negligently and carelesly written?
A59240But, what Return, do you think, was made me, for this Fair and Candid Proposal?
A59240But, what can not Impotent Passion feign, and pretend, when Reason is Nonpluss''d?
A59240But, what is all this to me?
A59240But, what is all this to me?
A59240But, why does he not relate this Perpetual Decree of the Council, in its own Words, if there be any such?
A59240Can any Man be so weak, as not to know that[ Either the One, or the Other,] means,[ Neither the One, nor the other, Determinatery?]
A59240Can any Man of Common Sense think, this is the Method to promote Truth?
A59240Can this Man do himself a greater Disparagement, than to tell his Reader how fond he is of such Trash?
A59240Could not GOD''s Omnipotence have kept their First Matter from Moving, when he had first Created it?
A59240Did ever any Solid Man hold, that the Matter or Form either, singly consider''d, are Things, or any thing else than Parts of a Thing?
A59240Do I not hold to the Notions of Ens, Unum, Matter, Form?
A59240Do not all Aristotelians pretend to it, as well as I?
A59240Do they think I would have taken it ill from any Man, if he shew''d me the Weakness of my Argument?
A59240Does he go about to prove the Contrary?
A59240Does he shew that I deviate from the Nature of the Thing in hand?
A59240Does he shew they proceed upon Unevident Principles, or False and Unprov''d Suppositions; or, that the Terms I use in my Discourse, are Unconnected?
A59240Does he think that I account all these to be Errours?
A59240Does it conduce to prove TRUTH, or confute ERROUR?
A59240Does not Eye- sight, and my express Words in that place, put this out of all Doubt, or Cavil?
A59240Does not Fire immediately burn us?
A59240Does not the Denial of this make all Second Causes Useless?
A59240Does the Knowledge of those Some burthen or fill the Angel''s Intellect, so, that it can hold no more?
A59240For, What is all this to the Argument?
A59240For, if they may have so many Operations in the First Instant,( subsequent to one another, in the Order of Nature,) why not more?
A59240Gentlemen; What can any sober Men think of such a kind of Writer?
A59240Had Le Grand, had Cartesius any such?
A59240His Reason?
A59240His, or Mine?
A59240How proves he this?
A59240How, then, does he Answer them?
A59240However, he will do better than Answering Arguments: And, How is that?
A59240I beseech him, VVhose Speech?
A59240I beseech him, who stated the Question on this fashion, or pretended we spoke of This Body, or This Spirit, which only do actually exist?
A59240If not, then he must say the Council errs: If it be, what is the Matter to this Form?
A59240If so, is not this all that is requisite to make a Sub- species?
A59240In what, then, consists this Arrogancy of mine?
A59240Is it Arrogance to have a high Opinion of what GOD, and Nature( the Work of his Divine Wisdom) have done?
A59240Is it neither an Assistant, or Extrinsecal Form; nor an Informing, or Intrinsecal one?
A59240Is not the Council it self extant?
A59240Is not this Pleasant?
A59240Is the Soul a Form at all, or no?
A59240Lastly, If this be a Point of Faith,( as they would have it thought,) why is not this press''d home against me?
A59240Lastly, What is all this to the Duty incumbent on him, and owing to his Readers, who desire to see Truth?
A59240Lastly, What is their Scurrilous Dialogue, to their producing, or so much as Naming, any one Principle of theirs; to do which, I had challeng''d them?
A59240Le Grand has falsify''d my Words, tho''he puts them all for mine: and, that too, in a Distinct Character?
A59240Le Grand imagine there goes no more to the Interpretation of Scripture, than a hasty Fancy of our own?
A59240Le Grand to the Reason of it?
A59240Le Grand''s Assertion, p. 130?
A59240Le Grand, to take the Manly Way of Arguing becoming a Scholar, and to prove what he says?
A59240Le Grand, whether he has not forsworn all Sincerity, and Common Honesty?
A59240Le Grand?
A59240Let me ask you then, What means all this Railing, and Libelling?
A59240Let them take their own New Method, unheard of amongst Learned Men, hitherto: Who can hinder them?
A59240May not Truth be spoke Always, as oft as there is Occasion?
A59240Must we still throw away our precious Time, and blur Paper with Angry Repartees, reciprocated endlesly?
A59240Now, in our Way of Doctrine, how easily are all these Speeches reconcil''d?
A59240Num in Jurgiis ac Rixis, sine fine reciprocatis, ac nemini profuturis, prodigendum Tempus, conspurcanda Charta?
A59240Or( which is the same,) What is this Thing which is Suspended?
A59240Or, Is it neither Intrinsecal, nor Not- Intrinsecal to it?
A59240Or, What Man, well in his Wits, could hope to obtain Belief that I held such a piece of Extravagant Nonsense?
A59240Or, Why should this exasperate them to a Raving Extasie of Railing?
A59240Or, Will any but a Mad- man say, that GOD is the Immediate Cause of that Burning, or Wetting?
A59240Or, are[ Moving more, and Moving less,] Contradictories; as are the Differences I put, and argue from them?
A59240Or, can not Body be, without being either of them?
A59240Or, could an Angel, which is a Pure Act, have been Created without Knowing at all, as a Body could without Moving at all?
A59240Or, is Spondanus''s Relating it more Authentick than the Words of the Council it self?
A59240Quid hîc faciendum?
A59240The Council said, it was such, verè& essentialiter; and, if it were Truly such, why may not a Truth, that belongs to Faith, be spoke at all times?
A59240The Question is, VVhat this State was?
A59240The Question, then, is, What is this Accusative Case?
A59240This is said; but, still the Question is, Why not All at once, if Some?
A59240To what end, then, does he bring such Stuff?
A59240Vides, mi Amice multùm colende, quòd etiam dum de Pace loquor, Impugnationem aggrediar ac Contentionem tecum denuò instaurem?
A59240Water wet us?
A59240Well, but, all this while, what kind of Form is it?
A59240What Gibberish is this?
A59240What Harm, what Incivility is in this Reply?
A59240What Man living dares deal with such an Adversary, who has Omnipotence, in all Exigencies, still at hand, to befriend him?
A59240What Reader will not smile at his Humour of saying any thing, tho''never so manifestly False?
A59240What Remedy now?
A59240What Stuff is this?
A59240What a clutter does he keep with the Word[ stetisse?]
A59240What answers he to these Arguments?
A59240What can stint them to such a precise Number?
A59240What do these Men?
A59240What have I to do with the Men in the Moon, the Planetary Gentlemen, or the Pre- Adamites?
A59240What hinders, then, their having at once all they naturally can have?
A59240What is Annihilation to Cartesius''s Method to find out First Principles, by denying the Certainty of all his Senses?
A59240What is all this to Philosophy?
A59240What is his Answer?
A59240What is now to be done?
A59240What is this Midling Form then?
A59240What is this to purpose?
A59240What means he?
A59240What means[ promoted, and admitted more fully to see GOD,] but, that they saw him before, tho''not so fully?
A59240What replies he to this, in which the Force of my Answer consists?
A59240What says he to this Clear Demonstration?
A59240What says he to this?
A59240Where are we now?
A59240Where are we now?
A59240Where did I speak in the Abstract of Essentia, Potentia essendi, or Quo potest esse?
A59240Who, but a Mad man, could hold two such Inconsistent Tenets?
A59240Why aliquando only?
A59240Why did none but his Devil set me on writing?
A59240Why is my Foot Cloven?
A59240Why must this Argument be repeated here, where we are speaking of the Manner of Operating peculiar to Angels?
A59240Why should an Honest Man, in an Honest Cause, be asham''d to shew his Face?
A59240Would not any Man swear now that all was Cock- sure?
A59240that is, How shews he these Words, thus put together, in my Books?
A59240the same that is meant by the Word[ Thing?]
A59234& c. And they reasoned with themselvs, saying, If we shall say from heaven, he will say unto us, Why did ye not then believe him?
A59234& c. how is she become as a widow?
A59234( i. e.) Is ignorance fit to commend learning, or folly me ● ● to praise wisdom?
A59234( i. e.) how long wilt thou delay to send me help?
A59234A note of Interrogation marked thus —?
A59234Addubitatio sola est, — Heu quae nunc tellus, quae me aequora possunt Excipe ● e?
A59234After whom is the King of Israel come out?
A59234Alas, what can saying make them believe, whom seeing can not perswade?
A59234Am I a God at hand?
A59234An mihi cantando victus non redderet ille?
A59234And against whom hast thou exalted thy voyce, and lifted up thine eyes on high?
A59234And he saith unto them, Is it lawful to do good on the Sabbath dayes, or to do evill?

A59234And thou Lord, how long?
A59234And would any wise man ever have so said?
A59234Are they Hebrews?
A59234Are they Ministers of Christ?

A59234When we demand a question; as, Cujum pecus?

A59234— Quid non mortalia pectora cogis Auri sacta fames?
A59243( Hold Doctor, the Testimonies should have told us that; why do you forestal them?)
A5924373?
A59243Again, ask him whether those first three century of yeares treat of all late ▪ sprung Negatives?
A59243Again, if the Metropolitan dissent from his own Primate or Patriarch, but agree with all the rest, is it yet schism?
A59243And I pray( good Doctor) where did you read the Greek 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 explicated for honor or dignity?
A59243And are not those punishable?
A59243And how, think you?
A59243And in what History do you finde such a dignity, as an Apostolical Seat in common?
A59243And indeed how can you think those, who can not employ sufficient time to study out their Faith, should be otherwise instructed than by Credulity?
A59243And was it not well done think you?
A59243And what sin, or seeming to sin, is this, think you?
A59243And who denies it?
A59243Are none of these therefore Catholikes?
A59243Are there any of these laws which are not equivalently in France, Spain, Germany; Nay Italy it selfe?
A59243Ask him next, why hee recurs to such obscure times, and stark dumb in our present controversies?
A59243Because( forsooth) not Peter alone, but James and John entrusted that charge to him: What a miserable Doctor is this?
A59243Besides, suppose there had been neither Pope nor King, was there any impossibility that consent of Bishops might remove the Primacy to another See?
A59243Besides, whom doe you call Christians?
A59243But in a word, is not this renouncing the Pope the most essential point of your Reformation?
A59243But let us ask first by whose interpretation of Scripture he will contest his Negatives?
A59243But perhaps you would not have this method used in matters of Religion: And why not?
A59243But the Doctor says they were early famous; I ask him, were they earlier than our Saviours chusing twelve Apostles, and Simon Peter the first?
A59243But the Doctor will have the contrary a demonstration, and who can help it?
A59243But what are those grounds in particular, by which he will contest his doctrines?
A59243But what is become of the King or Emperour all this while, is he no body now, who before was the Chief?
A59243But what''s all this to us?
A59243But why onely foure?
A59243But you complain for nothing; what persecution suffer you in England in comparison of the Catholikes?
A59243But, to return to our six Testimonies: By what means, think you, does he make them speak to his purpose?
A59243Can any man think he intendeth other then to mock his Auditory?
A59243Can the beginning of such a vast power be obscure?
A59243Could these things bee done without judging and despising?
A59243Did not you persecute Puritans and Brownists?
A59243Did they stick close to, and constantly claim their non subjection to the Pope, from Canons or Scripture?
A59243Do you your obligation; why should their backwardnes in their duties make you deny yours?
A59243Doctor, it is a wonderful commendation to your Church that she is yet to bee taught: Pray, when will she be at age to leave going to School?
A59243Doctor, tell me what it is to acknowledge the foundation laid by Christ and his Apostles?
A59243Doctor?
A59243Doctor?
A59243Doe wee professe the Pope can pretend no more than his right?
A59243Doe you not now complain to bee persecuted by others?
A59243Doe you not see our Priests, when discover''d, proceeded against as Traitors?
A59243Doe you think it is uncharitablenesse to judge as our Saviour judg''d; that is, to beleeve what he said to be true?
A59243Does he think the Unity of such a Head conduces nothing to the preservation of Unity in Faith, which yet he grants to a far more inferiour, Bishop?
A59243Ergo Kings are supreme in Ecclesiastical affairs?
A59243For Gods sake, Mr. Dr. whither would you have cast us?
A59243For ask him, are those few Heads all that are necessary?
A59243General Councils, and the consent of Christendome for twelve hundred yeares, and rely upon your own judgments to interpret the rest as you list?
A59243Good Brother Doctor tell mee how we despise you?
A59243Good Mr. Dr, whom should the Faithful beleeve in telling them the sence of Gods word, if not the Church?
A59243Have not they as great an Authority as any private Patriarch, Primate, Arch- Bishop, Bishop, Dr. Hammond, or a Deacon?
A59243How did the Ravennates behave themselves in the business?
A59243How does he prove they were not Protestants?
A59243How follows that?
A59243How hast thon cut off thy self from so many flocks?
A59243How know you it was usurpt?
A59243How ridiculous, how impudent a manner of speaking and arguing is this?
A59243How would you take it, if one should spit in your face, and justifie the affront, because his breath is sweet?
A59243I pray then Master Doctor, why could not the Metropolitans have consecrated the first, as well as the others, if that signifie independency?
A59243If it were so, how does that acquit you?
A59243If not, how can we judge of them by Scripture, which speakes more obscurely of them?
A59243If they be clearer in Scripture, what needed we those depositives at all, and to what end does that Apostolical Providence serve?
A59243If this be so, what can justifie your bloody Lawes, and bloodier Execution, for the fourscore years you were in power?
A59243Is Magistracy or Royalty rejected, when Pleas are commenced against Kings or Commonwealths, as going beyond their true Jurisdiction?
A59243Is it perhaps the true sence of Scripture, but restrain''d to fundamentals?
A59243Is it such an impossible matter for the meanest person that hath age enough, to know what doctrine was held by Christians ten yeares agoe?
A59243Is it the true sence of the Scripture?
A59243Is it to acknowledge Scripture?
A59243Is not a Parliament the General Representative of the Nation, unless every Lord, though a known and condemn''d Rebel, be summon''d?
A59243Is not the Papal Authority greater then the Authority of any Patriarch, Primate, Arch- Bishop, Bishop, Dr. Hammond, or a Deacon?
A59243Is not this as evident as all History, and even our very eyes can witnesse a truth?
A59243Is this man fit to be accounted 〈 ◊ 〉 expounder of Gods Word, who thus wilfull perverts, and purposely contradicts it?
A59243Lastly, What became of the Jews which( a ● … is manifest in this eight and twentieth Chapter and twenty fourth verse) were converted by St. Paul?
A59243Lastly, what is the Doctors intent in saying Christ did not appoint the Church of Rome conservatory( for ever) of all Christian truth?
A59243Let the Bishop bee now asked, whether Kings deserve to bee deposed, and Monarchy it self ● rejected for such abuses as hee gathers against the Pope?
A59243Let the testimony it self be what it will, what was the Doctor dreaming on when he produced it?
A59243Look whether your Proselytes doe not rely even upon your private Authority?
A59243Must they stand by, and look on while St. Paul converts all the Gentiles, and St. Peter all the Iews?
A59243Next, does the Testimony say, That the Emperor priviledged them from subjection to the Pope, as Head of the Church?
A59243Next, if a Bishop dissent from an heretical Metropolitan, but consents with a Catholick Patriarch, is it yet Schism?
A59243Num potest obscurum esse initium tam immensae potentiae, praesertim si intra hominum memoriam nata sit?
A59243Or, what follows hence?
A59243Pray, by whom did she send them down and recommend them to you?
A59243Secondly, What is become of General Councils all this while?
A59243Suppose it were equally; what follows thence?
A59243Surely all imagin so, but Dr. Hammond and his fellows; why is this over- slipt then, as if it were a matter of nothing?
A59243The affairs of the Head depend on the Arms and Shoulders; therefore will the Doctor infer they are supreme or highest?
A59243The fourth is from Optatus, noting it as a schismatical piece of language in the Donatists to say, Quod Imperatori cum Ecclesiâ?
A59243Therefore St. Peter not chief of the Apostles?
A59243Therefore what?
A59243Thirdly, What is become of Schism against the Head of the Church?
A59243To prove his position, he tells us, The Nations converted by St. Paul, were not to be ever subject to that Chair, where St. Paul sate?
A59243To what purpose was it to bring such unnecessary and frivolous distinctions, and afterwards wave them?
A59243Unlesse the Catholikes were once thus in you, how could you cast them out?
A59243Was ever such a confusion heard of?
A59243Was ever such an ID EST heard off?
A59243Were ever such mistakes incident to any other man, as are natural to this Doctor?
A59243Were wee, who now live, alive 900. yeares agoe?
A59243What King now could bee so hard- hearted as to punish a Rebel defending himself with such a wise, solid, and rational plea?
A59243What Laws make it Treason to become a Protestant, as they do to bee reconciled to the Catholike Religion?
A59243What Priest was so bad, whom you were not ready to entertain with honour, if hee would take party with you?
A59243What a desperate attempt then is it to bite at this bridle, and strive to put the whole Christian World in confusion?
A59243What a terrible business is this?
A59243What an Argument is here, to bring for an up- shot of his proofs, That the King is Head of the Church?
A59243What an unpardonable blindness was this to prove St. Paul over the Gentiles onely, by a Testimony which entitles him to the whole entire Nation?
A59243What difficulty in this?
A59243What dignity had Ephesus for St. Iohus sitting in it, that the like should be given to Iustiniana?
A59243What does the Dr?
A59243What follows hence against St. Peters authority?
A59243What is his meaning?
A59243What is this man about, that hee so forgets the question?
A59243What man living is able to withstand so potent and cunning an Adversary?
A59243What means his All this?
A59243What then?
A59243What trivial stuff is this?
A59243What will become of this malefactor, Master Doctor?
A59243What''s this to the purpose, if none that have a true right, be excluded?
A59243Where first, I would ask the Doctor in which of these words he places most force; in, Their Consecration by their own Suffragans, and by no other?
A59243Where then is the Catholick Church, of which we ought to be members?
A59243Whereas, what more ordinary then to plead two titles at Law,( as for example, birth- right, and a formerly- given judgment) for the same thing?
A59243Who is so impertinent, as to quarrel at the generalness of a Parliament, if some Court ▪ Lords bee admitted to their Voices?
A59243Who will not grant him this at the first word?
A59243Who would not think he intended to treat the question in earnest, seeing him begin with so serious a Preamble?
A59243Why the Lay- man, that harboured any such person, made liable to the same forseiture of estate and life?
A59243Why were Baptisms, Churchings, Burials, Marriages, all punished?
A59243Why were men forced to goe to your Synagogues under great penalties?
A59243Will hee justifie, that if the m ● ● demeanours pretended against them had been true, the extirpation of Prelacy had been lawfull?
A59243Will not any judicious Reader think such Rules as these like to binde all good Christians to bee concluded by them?
A59243Would you throw the house out of the windowes?
A59243Your second Quere is, Whether this were not done by him, before ever he came to Rome?
A59243all that cry Lord, Lord, that is, professe the name of Christ, but deny the onely certain Rule to come to the knowledge of his Law?
A59243are they in as little communication with the Pope, as Henry the eighth after his breach, or the Protestants in Q Elizabeths times?
A59243because they persecuted Protestants: what then?
A59243did St. Peter vote the contrary, and St. Iames his sentence oversway?
A59243did not Luther persecute Carolstadius and Zuinglius?
A59243doe they not now in Germany and other Countries?
A59243of Rome was not appointed by Christ?
A59243or are they who lived 900. years ago, alive now?
A59243or does he think a legitimate Authority in common is rejected, when the particular faults of them who are in Authority are resisted?
A59243or if the number of Voters in some Parliaments bee fewer than in others?
A59243or is the question of this or that particular action of the Popes?
A59243or unless every Member, that has a right to sit there, bee present?
A59243or was his breach but the conservation of these Lawes, and wee began our Religion there?
A59243or whether there may not easily bee made a collection of as many an I great misgovernments against the Court of England, or any other Country?
A59243or why are not they Reformers as well as you?
A59243such pitiful guessing Southsayers as you?
A59243were not those Lawes in force in the beginning of Henry the eighths Reign?
A59243what a weak reed you catch at to secure you from falling into the gulfe of Schism?
A59243when will she be out of her prentice- like tutorage, and set up for her selfe to professe truth, as a Church should do?
A59243will you make all these, Papists?
A92925?
A92925A secure method of disputing?
A92925A weighty caution?
A92925AND now, understanding Reader, what dos''t thou expect further?
A92925Again, since it hath been shown they may renounce the Faith of a fallible Church, why may they not renounce her Government?
A92925Again, was there not room enough in Antioch( and the like may much better be said of Rome) for two to preside& preach in?
A92925Again, were S. Peter necessitated to iustify himself, how does it follow that he must therefore need''s speak first?
A92925An hard case, that after thrice saing, Simon Son of Ionas louest thou me?
A92925And are not these pretty mistakes?
A92925And how proves hee that the Apostles intended this creed as a list of all fundamentalls?
A92925And how proves hee that this country had any by that Council?
A92925And how proves hee the application, that England was never anciently under the Pope as Head of the Church?
A92925And how proves hee, this?
A92925And is not that agreable to Peter''s preaching the Iews and Paul''s to the Gentiles when they met in a City where were multitudes of both?
A92925And lastly, who doubts but that Iudas in Hell hath a proper place of his own which no other damned soul hath?
A92925And what is this Principle of mine?
A92925And what stone is this?
A92925And what was that?
A92925And why?
A92925And, Whenas hee asks mee, what lawfull Iurisdiction could remain to the Pope in England, where such and such laws had force?
A92925And, how proves hee the Primitive Church exacted no more?
A92925Are there no Negative Testimonies in the words?
A92925Are these men fit to write Controversies; who can not, or will not, write common sence?
A92925Are they contain''d in the Creed onely?
A92925Are they demonstrative or rigorous Evidences?
A92925Are they of faith, or opinions onely?
A92925Are those doctrines their 39 Articles?
A92925Are you at least united with them?
A92925Are you wiser than they were in the Art of Governing as to this point?
A92925Articles in that creed?
A92925Articles, in which are many things( as hee wel knows) not found nor pretended to bee found in the Apostles creed?
A92925Because they cry Lord, Lord?
A92925But are not there near an hundred times that number, who have skirmish''t against us in particular Controversies?
A92925But do not others call her so besides her own Advocates?
A92925But how proves he that then they must have lost their reason?
A92925But is not this merciless rigour?
A92925But is this all the shame?
A92925But is this all?
A92925But perhaps he means they were Roman- Catholicks; if so, then let me ask, does he mean that they were of our Profession ere they renounc''t it?
A92925But then it should be ask''d what necessity was there of exciting a greater care in S. Peter in particular?
A92925But was there no design in alledging this testimony, or can he make it, though quite contrary to his tenet, serve his turn for nothing?
A92925But what if I show the Doctor, that he hath contributed great mill- stones and huge logges towards the making this Wind- mill of his?
A92925But what is the Ground of his exception?
A92925But what needs any Iudge to determine or decide that which Dr. H. himself hath confest here in his Reply and Answer?
A92925But what said the two appearances of the same Romanist?
A92925But who is the Vmpire to decide this contradiction- quarrell?
A92925But why good Dr.?
A92925But why is he imagin''d the Penman of but at least the first part of Schism Disarm''d?
A92925But, alas, how far are these two from being added together or conjoyned?
A92925But, how dealt Dr. Stapleton with that good man M. Calv ● n?
A92925But, how does hee clear himself of this shuffling nonsence?
A92925But, if they bee necessary, then why does hee call them opinions onely, and that too of an inferiour nature?
A92925But, is there no particularity in order to S. Peter?
A92925But, what matters it what this statute sayes?
A92925But, why is hee, in these his endeavours to vindicate his Church from Schism, so backwards to clear this concerning point?
A92925Can any man in reason imagin I was ignorant that such was their tenet, since I impugn it in this present controversy, as Schismatical?
A92925Can not one be a Bishop, but he must sit in a council before his betters?
A92925Can that bee necessary to bee held or known, which hath no necessary Grounds to make it either held or known?
A92925Can there bee greater abuses objected than these in your Grounds?
A92925Did I say S. Peter was an Arch- bishop and the other two his suffragans?
A92925Did ever man''s Reason run counter in this manner, or his insincerity so resolutely persist never to acknowledge any lapse?
A92925Did they ever make laws to renounce and abrogate the Popes Authority, and define absolutely against essentiall right?
A92925Do Duellers( if their quarrell be serious) use to spare their enemy, and not hurt him in that place where they see him unguarded?
A92925Do not truth and certainty involve essentially in their notions an oppositenes and contrarietie to falshood& error?
A92925Do not you know us?
A92925Do the whole multitude of beleevers hold the bridle& govern themselves?
A92925Do you go about to show that I put not down the Authors words aright, but mangledly& corruptly to my onely& best advantage, as your custome is?
A92925Doe not our eyes and the experience of the whole world testifie this to be so?
A92925Does it prove that the Authour of this welsh manuscript was worth a straw?
A92925Does it then follow, from a Bishops being Head of the Priests in his Diocese, that there is no degree of Authority Superiour to his?
A92925Does not all the world see that the pretended Church of England stands now otherwise in order to the Church of Rome, than it did in H. the 7ths dayes?
A92925Does not common sence inform us that in this cause each City is a particular, that is, one compleat self bounded Common- wealth?
A92925Does not true signifie not- false?
A92925Does such a trifler deserve a Reply?
A92925Eastern Bishops, were gone, ere this Canon,( which is the third in that Council) was made?
A92925For how can a proof conclude evidently unles the inference be necessary?
A92925For how can one separate from the whole Church, unless he separate both from his Superiours and equals too?
A92925For how should conscience be inreressed to defend positions held upon no better ground, with any eagernesse, unlesse reason be interessed first?
A92925For otherwise to what purpose was it to make an interrogation concerning a greater degree of love?
A92925For what Principles have they to character a true beleever?
A92925For what hurt is it to S. Peter''s Headship among the Apostles, if some went one way, some another, to preach?
A92925For what would he infer hence?
A92925For what?
A92925For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat or he that serveth?
A92925For why may not we forsake the Churche''s Communion, if she hath no power to bind to unity in Faith which makes us one of hers?
A92925For, how can any man be bound in reason to show that thing sounding in his behalf, upon which neither he nor his cause relies?
A92925For, of whom should we imagin in reason such a question was ask''t, but of such persons?
A92925For, why should any break Church- Communion as long as hee can keep it with conscience?
A92925Fourthly, what a miserable weaknesse is it to quote this Father against me for using harsh language, who himself uses far harsher?
A92925Good: did not Paul and Titus do the same in other places, were they therefore equall in Authority?
A92925Grant it, who ever affirmed that Fundamentals could be false?
A92925Grant it: what is this to our purpose?
A92925Grant the inference, shown lately to be nothing worth, whas tenet of ours does his conclusion contradict?
A92925Grant this too, what follows hence against the Pope''s Authory?
A92925Had he( meaning S. Peter) any Iurisdiction over the Churches of Asia?
A92925Had not the King the sword in his own hands?
A92925Had not the secular Governours the sword in their hand?
A92925Hath not each Catholike Bishop the same now a dayes over his private Diocese, and yet remains subject to the head of God''s Church notwithstanding?
A92925Hath not this Dr. of Divinity a strange reach of reason, who can conclude men equall in Authority because he finds their names in the same place?
A92925He was asked there,( and I ask him here again) why he omitted Schism against the Head of God''s Church?
A92925Hee asks how I know S r H. found no other Antiquities in it?
A92925Hee asks, if this bee the language of the Roman Schools?
A92925Hee replies: what then were Watham and Heath,& c. all Protestants?
A92925His Grounds?
A92925How came hee then to take notice of this toy?
A92925How can this stand with his Principles, who acknowledges ours a true Church, that is, not hereticall?
A92925How come then the words 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 to signify principall place?
A92925How comes this then to be a falsification when not one word is shown to be falsify''d?
A92925How is it possible then a man indued with the common light of reason can hold a thing true and yet not hold it''s opposite false?
A92925How much more credit were it to lose a bad cause by speaking out candidly, than to strive to maintain it by such pittiful shifts?
A92925How my Ld of Derry digresses from a Papall Authority to a Patriarchall; that is from t?
A92925How shall wee know they serve the same Lord?
A92925How then follows it, that they have changed Christ''s doctrine by addition, who hold more points than are in that creed of the Apostles?
A92925How then was it so proper for à Collection of Ecclesiasticall Councils?
A92925How then, my Lord?
A92925How would you take it if one should spit in your face, and justify the affront because his breath is sweet?
A92925I answer whether they blew their noses or no it matters not; but, did they renounce the Pope''s Authority as Head of the Church?
A92925I answer, grant it; what follows hence?
A92925I ask are they bound or no to believe the Church, when they have but probability to the contrary?
A92925I ask, are they necessary or no?
A92925I ask, can that whole multitude consent in a palpable errour in things visible, or no?
A92925I ask, did hee measure the Land, and number the saxons?
A92925I ask, has hee read the British laws in those times?
A92925I ask, have they any influence or efficacitie at all upon the conclusion or thing they are brought for, or no?
A92925I ask, was not my answer pertinent to his words, the Governours might erre, which was my onely business at that time?
A92925I ask, what kinde of things are their thirty nine Articles?
A92925I ask; what is this to the pretence that their solemne departure was found v. 29. which hee cited for it?
A92925IN MALA CAVSA NON possunt aliter; at malam causam quis coëgit eos habere?
A92925If he startle at this, and demand by what means I can give him such an assurance?
A92925If it do, produce it; if not, why do you alledge this more experience?
A92925If not( as your eyes witnes''t is not) then how are you their Brothers or of their community?
A92925If not, how are you then of one community or Brotherhood as Governed?
A92925If not, how does hee know, or how can hee affirm this?
A92925If not, where is the Vnity or common Headship of the whole, Church?
A92925If the Pope pretend onely to be a Primate or Patriarch,& c. What If he be?
A92925If they bee not necessary, why does hee seem to grant they are, by saying onely that they are not so necessary?
A92925If they can, what means that grumbling parenthesis of the maior part, and to what end or purpose was it brought, since all might erre?
A92925If this were his sole intent there, then why did himself professedly go about to evidence, p. 70. l. 4. what he tells us here needs no evidencing?
A92925In Answer: does hee say, hee could not build on another''s foundation, or, as Dr. H. expresses it Reply p. 56. had not right to doe it?
A92925In the name of wonder where shall we look for Dr. H''s proofs?
A92925Is Brittain at least?
A92925Is England named in the Council of Ephesus, which exempted Cyprus from the Patriarch of Antioch?
A92925Is it a greater obstinacy to deny a Governour taxes, than to rebell absolutely against him?
A92925Is it any wrong to them, or foule play in S. W. to affirm that Dr. H. and his Friends will not speak a contradiction?
A92925Is it not of faith with them, that there is such a thing as God''s words; though it bee not in that creed?
A92925Is it possible Mr. H. must be continually obliged by his cause to such affected insincerity, as still to counterfeit the mistake of the question?
A92925Is it possible Mr. H. should think his Reader so silly, as to take such ridiculous tergiversations for a sufficient Answer?
A92925Is it possible one should trip so often in running over a litle leaf of paper almost as intelligible as legible?
A92925Is it private reason?
A92925Is it the private Spirit?
A92925Is it the true sence of it?
A92925Is it to acknowledge the letter of the Scripture sufficient?
A92925Is not Schism Disarm''d all the same style, or is it at all like the style of the Catholick Gentleman''s Letter?
A92925Is not he that sitteth at meat?
A92925Is not the Ground of all faith a necessary point?
A92925Is not this Dr. a great wit to bring such unauthoriz''d& unlikely trifles for his excuse?
A92925Is not this a fine upshot of such an elaborate answer?
A92925Is not this a gallant disputant?
A92925Is not this a rare disputant?
A92925Is not this a solid man?
A92925Is not this a worthy similitude?
A92925Is not this an undaunted Adversary, who dares aduenture to come into the lists of disputation, armed onely with such Bull- rushes as these?
A92925Is not this as evident, as that the sun shines; and may it not, with equall modesty, bee den''yd that there ever was such a man as K. H. the 8th?
A92925Is not this excellent?
A92925Is not this handsom?
A92925Is not this neat?
A92925Is not this strange Logick?
A92925Is there a greater misery then to stand trifling with such a brabbler?
A92925Is there any easier deference than to for goe a probability upon her contrary affirmation?
A92925Is there any orderly common ty of Government obliging this Head to correspend with the other Head?
A92925Is this a sober discourse, which falls reelingly to the Ground of it self, when none pushes it?
A92925Is this a sufficient Plea for your breaking God''s Church?
A92925Is this man fit to have the charge of souls, who professes to set more by his temporal than their eternal felicity?
A92925Knot or I talk of Infallibility in things unnecessary?
A92925Lastly, he asks, upon this occasion, what contradictories may not this wonder- working faculty of S. W''s reconcile?
A92925Lastly, this being then his solely- reliedon proof, after what a strange manner he manages it?
A92925Lastly, what means his inference of his being clearly superiour in that council?
A92925Let another take his office?
A92925Make an Heretike speak out( saith S. Augustin) and you have h ● lf- confuted him But, what reason gives hee why hee disapproves of my advise?
A92925Must consent of fathers?
A92925Must not he be a very wise man, who sticks not, first to build upon, next to vindicate so wise an Authority?
A92925Must not hee now bee very quarelsome, who can wrangle with such an innocent and plain truth?
A92925Must the common doctrine of the universall Church interpret it?
A92925My question was whether they could erre, and conspire to tell an open ly in a thing visible as the Sun at noon- day?
A92925Needs any mory answer be given to particulars which one yeelds to, than to say he grants them?
A92925Next, I would ask him, what means the word 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, this?
A92925Next, hee sayes, it may become hereticall or Mahumetan?
A92925Next, it was ask''t him why S. Peter could not be head of the Church but God must needs watch all occasions to manifest it by a particular miracles?
A92925No, my Lord, I styl''d the Pope''s office, the Bridle; do bridles use to ride upon horses?
A92925Not objected?
A92925Now how can any man in reason imagine I should not mention his greatest faults, that is, not use harsh words?
A92925Now what reply attempts Dr. H. against an objection which enervates all the whole Authority he relies on& shows him baffled in his own testimonies?
A92925Now who sees not that an humble desire, that he would not doe it easily, intimates or supposes he had a power to doe it absolutely?
A92925Now, then, I would ask, if this be so, how many Iews S. Paul might convert& govern, and how many S. Peter?
A92925Now, what does Mr. H?
A92925Now, what excuse brings the Bishop for this fundamentall shuffling, importing no less than the avoiding the whole question?
A92925Occulta hic oritur quaestio, Quid igitur?
A92925Or how does hee prove the Land must necessarily bee peopled, as fully as before, immediately after a Conquest so universall and cruell?
A92925Or was it for this opinion of the Pope above the Council, and others of this strain?
A92925Or what novelty is it that persons of equall Authority should doe things by common consent?
A92925Or, do some Governors onely hold the bridle& weild by it the multitude of beleevers?
A92925Or, will it bee deem''d by any indifferent man a competent proof against true faith, to say, that such and such hereticks deny''d it?
A92925Possum- ne ego ex te exculpere hoc verum?
A92925Pray does S r H. neglect all passages which are not of this grave nature?
A92925Reader, canst thou imagin a greater blasphemy?
A92925Reply, had he ever a particular Commission given him, correspondent to the particularizing promise, but here?
A92925Secondly, hee asks, how does it appear that the British Bishops did assent to that Canon?
A92925Secondly, hee tells us, our Ancestours did not stupidly sit still and blow their noses, when they saw themselves thus abused?
A92925Secondly, if they were Protestants, hee demands, of which sect they were?
A92925Sixthly, grant all those Abuses had been true; was there no other remedy but division?
A92925The generall words of the father signify nothing to your purpose; unles they bee apply''d to your party: and who makes the application?
A92925The most frantick Enthusiasts then have an equall pretence?
A92925These are our manifest and undeniable proofs: what arguments does hee hring to blinde the Evidences?
A92925These are the points between us; what say you to these?
A92925Thirdly is it such news that Authors should be of severall opinions?
A92925This is my present charge against him, consisting of these foure branches?
A92925Vnder that of Hereticks?
A92925Was ever man so ignorant of the common laws of disputing?
A92925Was ever such an Answer contriu''d?
A92925Was ever such an explication heard of?
A92925Was ever such frivolous stuff heard of?
A92925Was this power it self thus cast out before?
A92925Was this the ordinary Government of the Primitive Church?
A92925Well, my L d, are you and they both joyntly under the Government of those Patriarchs, or any other common Government?
A92925Were not this a wise and edifying Sermon?
A92925What Nations were these?
A92925What Symptomes are these, and of what?
A92925What a mysterious piece of sence is here?
A92925What a piece of wit is here?
A92925What a wise task it was to consult all the multitude of Grammars extant for such a trifle, which was just at his nose?
A92925What becomes then of good S. Iohn Baptist, who called the ill- prepared Iews a generation of vipers?
A92925What can be more expresse and full?
A92925What could I expect other?
A92925What dare not I, and do not I affirm?
A92925What does Mr. H?
A92925What does this Dr. of Divinity?
A92925What follows in his 25. page is onely his own sayings?
A92925What insuperable difficulties the Bp''s sooth- saying fancy proposes?
A92925What is this to the Question whether these words[ the Papacy as such, as it is now maintain''d by many] cohere in sence or no?
A92925What man in his wits ever pretended it or imagin''d, but that the Apostles might count mony wrong, or be mistaken in knowing what a clock it was?
A92925What means hee by the Eastern Bishops?
A92925What means this Dr. by this instance?
A92925What need three testimonies, strung together, to shew one restrictive word?
A92925What then?
A92925What then?
A92925What then?
A92925What?
A92925Whence, or from what Authority?
A92925Where then is your Brother hood?
A92925Where''s the difference?
A92925Whereas I onely ask''t him why he did affirm it without knowing it?
A92925Whether could any other Apostle by any power given him by Christ countermand or interpose in them?
A92925Which shows now the greater charity?
A92925Whither away my Lord?
A92925Who for bids them to go to visit the sick with them, or such like religious duties?
A92925Who knows not likewise that they stand accused by us of the fact of renouncing an Authority far higher than Patriarchall?
A92925Whom do you impugn then?
A92925Why so, my L d?
A92925Why?
A92925Why?
A92925Will any man endeavour to turn one out of possession lawfully, without a plea, or produce a plea without either any motive or reason in it?
A92925Will he say it is an usurpation?
A92925Will hee have mee reckon up again the exceptions against it?
A92925Will hee say,''t is that of the secular power being Head of the Church, or that of Bishops?
A92925Will less serve than such proofs to iustify such a separation?
A92925Would not Supreme Bishop or Governour have served, without being thus unfortunately witty in calling it a Summum genus?
A92925Yet Dr. H. assures us that''t is in vain to speak of those to him; and why?
A92925],[ Paris?
A92925and a greater danger of disaccepting ours in them, than theirs in the Puritans?
A92925and do not the Romanists excommunicate you and think you of another Religion because you hold it?
A92925and how can reason be obliged to the serious, and vigorous patronage of what it felf knows certainly that it knows not whether it be true or no?
A92925and is not this time extoll''d as that in which the Reformation in this point began?
A92925and what a miserable life does he lead in turning over leaves daily to so litle purpose?
A92925and, if it does not, what is it more then Dr. H''s own saying?
A92925and, why?
A92925as not such?
A92925asks us who must put the case, or state the question?
A92925because they believe them not I ask, had they a demonstration they were false?
A92925can not one be so without being particular Bishop of each see in the world?
A92925could not he be Bishop there and speak last both, without giving the sentence?
A92925did I add or change any title in favour of it?
A92925did it not ly in his power to right himself as hee ● isted, and to admit those pretended eneroachments onely so far as hee thought iust and fitting?
A92925did it not ly in their power to chuse whether they would admit or no things destructive to their Rights?
A92925does to draw of his Readers from the point in hand?
A92925for maintaining the substance of the Pope''s Authority held by all?
A92925himself: and upon what Grounds?
A92925how does this vindicate the Church of England or take of my exception?
A92925how then appears it from the words that this was onely an exortation?
A92925how then, and with what face can you pretend I falsify''d it?
A92925if he did not, how can he affirm it, or alledge this for his excuse?
A92925if not, how can it possibly signifie the Gentile part onely, for which hee produced it?
A92925if not, where is their submission of their judgements, where is their believing the Church?
A92925is it of little concernment to examin whether the Grounds bee sufficient or no?
A92925is there not a palbable difference put between the pretended Authorities of imposing points to be held, in us and them?
A92925let us see between whom this all- Communion was broke; between two Churches; and by whom?
A92925make any advantage of it?
A92925more than these?
A92925nay did I add, detract, or change the least particle how unconcerning soever, or do you goe about to show any such thing?
A92925nay was it not possible this might have been don even to the unbeleevers themselves?
A92925or because they call him Lord?
A92925or can all hold what some do not hold?
A92925or can not a Negative testimony testify a Negative point without necessarily recurring to solve Affirmatives?
A92925or did your Lp ever meet a bridle on horsback?
A92925or does he mean perhaps that they remain''d Catholicks after the renouncing it?
A92925or how he could know it having noe ground to know it?
A92925or how is England visibly ▪ united to it, vnder this notion?
A92925or is it, though thus advantageous to the whole Church, to be rejected because of the abuses of particular persons?
A92925or is this the point disputed between Catholicks and Protestants?
A92925or the Papacy with super additions?
A92925or to what end do you huddle together those pretended extravagancies for your vindication?
A92925or was it a friendly part to involve his Friends in his own wise predicament?
A92925or was not the word pasce spoken imperatively by a Master to his servant as apt to signify a Commission as the words, Goe teach all Nations, were?
A92925or what hinders her from doubting, if she sees she may be wrong?
A92925or why he could not be chief of the Apostles without having a greater tongue of fire?
A92925or, is it an undeniable Principle that you ought to endanger your soul where you grant there is no necessity?
A92925or, shall wee have any for the future?
A92925or, what relation hath the pointing out to us such a word to the inferring a conclusion from three testimonies?
A92925our question is about the limitation of Iurisdiction, what serve his testimonies for, or what do they there unles they can prove that?
A92925replies: yes, well enough?
A92925that S. Peter& S. Paul were distinct Bishops there also?
A92925that is, that those many Cities are more ones, that is, many Cōmon- wealths?
A92925that is, was it not in actuall force till and at this time?
A92925the Catholicks, or the Arians?
A92925till Constantine''s time?
A92925unless they be willing to submit their private opinions to her Authority, how can they be said to believe her at all?
A92925was ever common sence so abus''d?
A92925was it not in Peter''s power to elect him?
A92925was this single Abbot either pretended to bee a Council, or these words of his some authentick act of a Council?
A92925were there noe worthier persons present, or did the thing to be concluded onely concern his see, or indeed did it concern it at all?
A92925what Logick can conclude such an Act pardonable by such a Plea?
A92925what does he?
A92925what faith is to bee given, to the most formall bargain made with such Copes- masters of testimonies?
A92925what means then this laying out my words in such a forme?
A92925what need you ask that question?
A92925what saies hee to this?
A92925what then?
A92925what weaker then than to think they were separated from the Church for oppositing those more rigorous pretences?
A92925where is there any supreme Governour, or Governours to whom all are bound to submit, and conform themselves in the common concerns of the Church?
A92925where is your order?
A92925why do you instead of thus doing your duty, stand asking me the same question over again?
A92925would he have it a parenthesis or no?
A59222''T is this Light, I say, we would be at; Why is it so shy to shew its Face?
A59222*[ In doing this we do not at all relinquish our Reason, but follow and exercise it?
A59222*[ When w ● enquire( says he) What is the Rule of Christian Faith?
A592222 ly, Why must J. S. be the man?
A59222Above all, does he not all along declare his abhorrence of finding out Faith in Scripture''s Letter by private Judgments, which is the Drs Position?
A59222Again, Does he mean in point of True Reason inform''d by the best Maxims to direct and establish it?
A59222Again, do we here meddle with its Dimensions or how much is of Faith, as he did when he spoke of his Rule?
A59222Again, how will he satisfy Doubters, and convince acute Opposers and Adversaries what is the true Doctrin of Christ?
A59222Again, what Nonsense does he make us speak by omitting these words?
A59222Again, what did his Gospel contain?
A59222Again, what mean you by our proving her free from Errour?
A59222Again, what means Satisfaction of Mind?
A59222Again, what means he by[ Wee of the Church of England?]
A59222Again, what means he when he says, Testimony is not an Intrinsicall Ground?
A59222Again,''t is ask''t if it be an Infallible Rule?
A59222All this while, What is this to the Tradition we assert, which begun afterwards?
A59222And I ask, whether the Matter under Consideration be the Object of Naturall Reason, or no?
A59222And asks briskly, whether he or I know best?
A59222And by what Rule?
A59222And can any thing excuse You from being thus faulty, but Ignorance of our Tenet?
A59222And can he seriously think that a man who casts it up False, does not decline, while he thus mistakes, from Arithmetical Rules?
A59222And can there be any thing more Evident?
A59222And could not these Learned men see a thing manifest to Sense and Experience?
A59222And did ever any of us pretend, that Tradition was to bring down such particulars?
A59222And do not you see this is already prov''d to your Hand?
A59222And does he in his great Learning think the Church is to Own, or prescribe every one their particular Methods of handling Controversy?
A59222And does not his Adversary confess it too?
A59222And how can you, of all Men, suppose he is?
A59222And how shall this Quarrel be decided?
A59222And if that can be erroneous, may not all Christian Faith by your Principles be perhaps a company of Lying Stories?
A59222And if we must alledge it, are we not oblig''d, as Disputants, to bring such Arguments, to prove that Authority Certain, as do conclude that Point?
A59222And is it come now to signify theirs simply as Christians, or as conjoyn''d with all the rest?
A59222And is not such a thing Evident by its own light, or out of the very Terms, that is, self- evident?
A59222And is not this a rare Answer?
A59222And is not this to bring us to Divine Faith, if we prove it to be His Doctrine?
A59222And is not this to cry, Hail fellow, well met?
A59222And is this the Faith Christians are to be sav''d by?
A59222And must I. S. still be of the Drs Sentiment, tho''he in all occasions contradicts it, disputes against it, and baffles it?
A59222And now, I beseech you, Learned Sir, Where''s the Polagianism?
A59222And perhaps I can shew him twenty more; but, still, what''s this to the Point?
A59222And pray what more direct or more full Answer can there be to an Argument, than to deny the Premises?
A59222And pray where does it appear that Mr. G. is oblig''d not to deny that the Greek Church has err''d in matters of Faith?
A59222And so the Way to know the Doctrin of Christ and his Apostles, is it not the Means which he who has us''d knows that Doctrin?
A59222And that we do not confess they are Fallible, or may deceive us, as you grant of your Interpretations of Scripture, which ground your Belief?
A59222And that''t is because a Point is Indivisible?
A59222And then what becomes of the Council of Trent?
A59222And there may be vanity too in our Case, for ought I know: But where shall it be lodg''d?
A59222And was not the Question plainly of the Certainty of this, and of All this more?
A59222And were those men Followers of Tradition who despis''d it?
A59222And what Eyes have you who perceive not that therefore it can not be a sure way?
A59222And what do you more than e''en leave them to draw Cuts, and venture their Souls as handy- dandy shall decide, for you or Mr. G.?
A59222And what is this but Pelagianism?
A59222And what reason have you to desire it?
A59222And what says his Instance?
A59222And what''s he the better for Certainty of This, if still he remains uncertain of all the particular Articles he is to believe by it?
A59222And who shall see through the Mists which these Disputes will raise?
A59222And why is he not satisfy''d?
A59222And why not a word of Reply to my Plain Reasons why he ought to have done both these?
A59222And why should not the Proposer fear, as himself did here, lest by changing his words, as he did enormously, he should change his Sense too?
A59222And will any Notwithstanding unprove it again?
A59222And will not the Happiness or Misery of their Souls for ever depend on that Account?
A59222And will you assume that the Greek Church errs, who believe she does not?
A59222And would you have what you say pass for an Answer?
A59222And your Answer that They are?
A59222And, I may, I hope, ask another Question; Could any Man but Dr St. put such a Gull upon his Adversary and the Reader too?
A59222And, Might you not with as much reason say the same, if one should maintain the Absolute Certainty of our Senses, which is one of those Preliminaries?
A59222And, does he think I have nothing else to do but to stand Rectifying still what he all along takes such Care and Pains to put into Disorder?
A59222And, how did the Dr. acquit himself, and perform this?
A59222And, if so, why not with the same labour, and for the same Reasons, to bring it down from the very Beginning of the Church?
A59222And, pray, who''s the wiser for such an Answer?
A59222And, since''t is Evident they must, we would know next how many of them are to arrive at any Faith at all?
A59222And, was this All he said?
A59222And, were this so, then, to what end were Catechisms, Sermons and Controversies about such subjects?
A59222Are Protestants and Christians then Convertible Terms or Synonyma''s?
A59222Are all the* Principles Dr. St. laid?
A59222Are not the Socinians as well satisfy''d in mind that Christ is not God, as the Dr. is that he is God?
A59222Are not these all presuppos''d to his Rule?
A59222Are the Ten Commandments, which are plain honest Nature, of as Deep and Mysterious a Sense, as the high Points we speak of?
A59222Are there not many sorts of Christians which are not Protestants?
A59222Are these with him but Opinions?
A59222Are they so hard to be understood, that Writing is not a clear Conveyer of God''s Sense in such Matters?
A59222Are you a Socinian, an Arian, a Sabellian, an Eutychian,& c. or what are you?
A59222Are you a whole, or a half, or a Quarter- nine- and- thirty- Article Man?
A59222Are your Mysteries of Christian Faith such?
A59222Argument than your Instance?
A59222As every thing is true, and every thing clear; who now besides your self would have thought of an evasion from it?
A59222As for the later, where were your thoughts, Sir, while you thus bad adieu to the plainest Rules of Discourse?
A59222Ask him then, If Faith be Absolutely Certain by his Grounds?
A59222Ask him what Points he accounts Necessary?
A59222Be it what it will in it self, the Point is, How does it Build Faith in us?
A59222Besides, how should they prove this Divine Assistance?
A59222Besides, who can tell but this man is better stock''t with Dr. St''s Morall Qualifications and Inward Light than his Judges and Pastours are?
A59222But could you not have afforded to inform us likewise by what he was satisfi''d?
A59222But did she follow this Rule?
A59222But his Reason was Nonplust, and his Fancy was over- heated, and this must plead his excuse: for what could he do better in such ill circumstances?
A59222But how proves he that when we have found a Certain Authority we must not follow it and rely on it?
A59222But if I take that word ill, how must I do to take it well?
A59222But is he sure that I. S. contradicts himself?
A59222But is it so much as an Argument ad hominem?
A59222But is not your Tradition for Scripture Human Testimony too?
A59222But let us see what you will make of it: What would you have prov''d next?
A59222But our Point is how we shall know assuredly what is Christs Doctrin?
A59222But pray what difference betwixt Heresie and Error in matter of Faith?
A59222But pray, what express Scripture has your Sober Enquirer for his Power to make the Implicit Points Explicit?
A59222But the Point is, Can you make good his Logick in this irregular Proceeding?
A59222But the only Point is still, Are you absolutely- certain by your Grounds, that your Faith is indeed built on the Word of God?
A59222But to let this pass, as you say, with your causelesly gleeking Reflections upon Scripture and Tradition, what say you to the Proof I bring?
A59222But was Tradition follow''d, while they follow''d their Authority?
A59222But was this pretence to a Secret Tradition a pretending to follow the Publick Tradition of the Church?
A59222But what a shift is the Dr put to?
A59222But what becomes of those who use not those Means?
A59222But what becomes then( say you) of the Vulgar Latin Translation?
A59222But what have we to do with any of your pretended Christian Churches, whether Eastern, or not- Eastern, Modern, or Antient; many or few?
A59222But what if men differ about this Certain Authority wherein it lies, and how far it extends?
A59222But what is it which you manifest?
A59222But what needs more?
A59222But what provision was made in the mean time against the mischief and Scandall?
A59222But what says he to my discourse?
A59222But what says that B. Apostle?
A59222But what were my words that were so mirthful?
A59222But what would I. S. do with such a man?
A59222But what''s all this to the Point?
A59222But what''s become of your Proof all this while?
A59222But what''s this to our case?
A59222But where''s his Sincerity?
A59222But where''s this Proof, where''s this Truth all the while?
A59222But who set the bounds of Reason?
A59222But why are you so shy to quote the Pages or Paragraphs where we bring these absurd Proofs?
A59222But why is this made a distinct Conclusion or disjoynted from the rest, whereas it was the most necessary and Essentiall part of our true Tenet?
A59222But will not that follow which you say here will not?
A59222But, What is this to our present business?
A59222But, Why all this?
A59222But, Why must they, or how can they pretend alike?
A59222But, can any one think so excellent a Wit, as Yours, is justly reputed, should expose himself so manifestly, without some latent Design?
A59222But, did the Antient Church, in reality, never know any thing of this way?
A59222But, into what an unadvisedness does your Anger transport you, to run the Weapon through your own Side to do us a Mischief?
A59222But, ought you not to be assur''d first that he did indeed deliver it?
A59222But, the main Point is, while we are enquiring which the Way is which God has left, pray what have we to do with the Iudgments of men?
A59222But, what a put off is this?
A59222But, what would we have?
A59222But, where lies the Jest?
A59222But, where lyes the Quarrel?
A59222But, why Presbyterians and Socinians?
A59222But, why do I make such a Spitefull Reflexion on him as to call them His Christian Churches?
A59222But, why should I think it needs no Proof against You; who, we see plainly, have interpreted your selves out of your Natural Sentiments?
A59222But, why should I vex you with putting you upon manifest Impossibilities?
A59222But, why so Cholerick?
A59222By it''s meer Letter, descanted upon by private Iudgments, or, interpreted by the Church?
A59222Can Tradition infallibly deliver contrary things?
A59222Can a man be Absolutely Certain of a Falshood, because he apprehends that Falshood to be a Truth, or that a thing is so when''t is not so?
A59222Can any man living make Sense of such stuff, or ever come at his Faith by such a Rule?
A59222Can any thing be more Trifling?
A59222Can he be truly said to Regulate himself by him, when he does not use his manner of speaking, meerly because he Professes and Declares he does it?
A59222Can he deny this?
A59222Can his apprehending it so make it so?
A59222Can they add weight to the Divine Authority, or clear that to us which is already so plain by Scripture?
A59222Can they make or unmake it?
A59222Can they, or can they not?
A59222Can this man do himself a greater prejudice, than by thus confessing, that he holds not Christian Faith, absolutely speaking, True?
A59222Can you deny this?
A59222Christian Faith is Divine, these Grounds and the Faith built on them is Human, being the Testimony of Men: Are these two the same Notion?
A59222Could any man but this Gentleman undertake to combat a Proposition so formally, which is in Sense Identicall and Self- Evident?
A59222Could any thing be clearer or more candid?
A59222Did God''s Grace ever make a Conclusion follow which did not follow, or make the Terms cohere which were Incoherent?
A59222Did I speak of the Epistle to the Hebrews?
A59222Did any of them say that the Churche''s Tradition of a Doctrin, as Christs, was liable to Errour?
A59222Did ever any man pretend that Tradition will keep men from any Possibility of Errour whether they follow it or no?
A59222Did ever any mortal Man think or pretend that Tradition was an Article, or a Power, any more than that it was a Horse shoe?
A59222Did he never reflect why a Tenet is Metaphorically call''d a Point?
A59222Did not they all hold, that who taught any thing contrary to the Doctrin delivered down by the Church, was a Heretick?
A59222Did our Saviour teach, and do Protestants believe no more, than that the Book so call''d is Scripture?
A59222Did she not do her best in the present Circumstances?
A59222Did the Apostles when they went to convert the world go with Books in their hands, or Words in their Mouths?
A59222Did the Dr. or any man living hear any Mortal man when he is about to express his Certainty of a thing, say[ I am Fallibly Certain of it?]
A59222Did the Testimony of the Christian Church tell them that Enthusiasm was Christ''s Doctrin?
A59222Did they ever alledge, that the Tradition or Immediate Testimony of the Body of the Church, deliver''d down their Doctrin for Christ''s?
A59222Did we ever press him to admit it blindly; the Point is, will he renounce his Reason when it tells him this Authority ought to be believ''d?
A59222Did your self when you granted the Latin and Greek Churches follow''d Tradition, intend to signify that they follow''d Articles and Powers?
A59222Do I hinder you from shewing Protestants that They are Certain of their Faith?
A59222Do either of us alledge Miracles, or any Arguments that Proves it to be such?
A59222Do not many of your Congregation( and the like may be said of all Sects) sin often, and yet few or none of them desert their Faith once?
A59222Do not these two consist well together?
A59222Do not they all profess to resolve theit Faith( I mean their abominable Errours) into the written Word?
A59222Do not they all strive to lay claim to the Letter of Scripture for their Rule, as well as you?
A59222Do not your self use the same Method?
A59222Do the Apostolical or succeeding Churches testify either of these?
A59222Do their contrary Pretences hinder it from being seen whether the Deed be for Peter or Paul; or Tradition for Catholicks or Protestants?
A59222Do we contend here they could follow no other?
A59222Do you deny this?
A59222Do you deny this?
A59222Do you do any such matter?
A59222Do you so much as go about it?
A59222Do you take them for Snares, or Fences, and when for the one, and when for the other, and wherefore?
A59222Does any of our School- Divines take the Words[ Rule of Faith] in this Sense?
A59222Does he deny this, or shew my Discourse faulty by assigning any other that particularizes or distinguishes them?
A59222Does he deny this?
A59222Does he deny this?
A59222Does he mean the Vniversality of Christians in the First Age, or any succeeding one?
A59222Does he mean they were to Vnderstand what it was the Apostles taught?
A59222Does he mean they were to examin whether the Apostles were Divinely- inspir''d or not?
A59222Does he not cite my words here, that this Human Faith had by Tradition, leads us to what''s Divine?
A59222Does he think''t is so with Truths and Falshoods?
A59222Does he understand how to answer our many Arguments to prove it?
A59222Does it follow so Naturally that Faith needs no Higher Grounds of Certainty, because J. S. writes unconstantly?
A59222Does not he prove it to be as Evident as''t is that the same is the same with it self?
A59222Does not the word[ their] signify theirs as distinct from all other sorts of Christians?
A59222Does not this Metaphor look a little more Proper, and the Discourse upon it hang better together than his likening Scripture to a Purse?
A59222Doth Mr. M. think our Faith is to be resolv''d into the Original Texts?
A59222Every Clause?
A59222Faith as''t is formally Divine has for its Grounds the Divine Authority ▪ But are we in our Controversy Examining it as''t is Formally Divine?
A59222For let me ask you once more, Is not the Sense of Scripture your Faith?
A59222For which way can an Inference be drawn from an Antecedent, in which it was not to be drawn?
A59222For, pray, did Christ teach any Error?
A59222For, pray, how many of these Books go to make up your Rule of Faith?
A59222For, what can these words mean?
A59222From what Antecedent is this Conclusion drawn?
A59222Had not I then good reason to ask him if Christ was a meer Man, it falling in so Naturally?
A59222Has Peter Twenty pounds in his Purse, because Paul can not prove he has not?
A59222Has he it by Divine Revelation, or by Reason?
A59222Have not I produc''t in my First Catholick Letter, p. 35. reasons enow to shew him how disputable this point is, none of which he so much as mentions?
A59222He asks him smartly, what Infallible Ground is there for this Divine Faith, and where it fixes?
A59222He asks how I know it?
A59222He asks, did Christ teach any Errours?
A59222He discourses against Tradition as''t is Practical; but has he said any thing against it as''t is Oral?
A59222He must learn the Sense of Scripture by them, and yet trust himself interpreting Scripture, not them, for the Sense of it?
A59222He read it, and at my request made his Exceptions; which being clear''d by me, he askt me why I did not Print it?
A59222He understands?
A59222How Plausibly and smoothly this Discourse runs, and how shrewdly it seems to conclude?
A59222How can you without destroying the Certainty of your own Rule[ Scripture] which depends upon it, and withal contradicting your self?
A59222How does it appear that the Church of Rome is Infallible in the sense and meaning of Tradition?
A59222How often must it be repeated that you have as yet produc''t no Rule at all for your Faith?
A59222How smart and victorious this looks?
A59222How will he prove it?
A59222How?
A59222How?
A59222How?
A59222How?
A59222I ask next, did Mr. T. use all these means in a doubtful Point, to compass a rational satisfaction?
A59222I ask you then, what do you mean by those words[ necessary for Salvation] which mince the matter so warily?
A59222I ask, with the good leave of his Jest, Does he think Christ and his Apostles taught any unnecessary Points?
A59222I take my Ruler, and draw a Line by it; Does the Straightness or Crookedness of this Line depend upon my Vnderstanding?
A59222I would gladly know if that point be contain''d in those Books?
A59222If Tradition was not follow''d but deserted when men were led by False Teachers, what''s this to us?
A59222If for want of a firm Ground, Faith hap to be False?
A59222If it did?
A59222If it was the same Sense, why did he not speak to it directly in the Proposers words?
A59222If not; why did he use such cautious diminishing expressions, and instead of All their Doctrin, put, All matters necessary to our Salvation?
A59222If so, how proves he This at least?
A59222If the Chapter or Verse he cites be not True Scripture, or if any materiall Word in the Verse be alter''d can he securely build his Faith on it?
A59222If the Church may explain the sense and meaning of Tradition; that is, of the Method of conveying down Christs Doctrin?
A59222If they can err in matters necessary to Salvation, then doubtless many will err, and how can errour Save them?
A59222If they do not, what are they good for in a Controversy, or what signifies a Proof that Concludes nothing?
A59222If you demand how the Roman Church came by this knowledge of making Implicit Points Explicit?
A59222In pursuance of this new Method of Proving and Confuting He asks again, How comes Mr. S. to know we are not Certain when we say we are?
A59222In the mean time let us ask you, how you come to be thus Certain of it?
A59222In the mean time why has not Mr. G. done already as much as should be done?
A59222In these words of yours( p. 7)[ As to the Rule of our Faith] give me leave to reflect on the word[ OVR,] and thence to ask you, who are YOV?
A59222Intrinsicall Ground?
A59222Is Certainty of this more, and Certainty of this Book all one?
A59222Is Faith ever a jot more Certain or True because some may be Satisfy''d it is?
A59222Is all his Discourse at the Conference with Mr. G?
A59222Is any thing in the world capable to be known?
A59222Is he Sure they can not err as to what''s necessary to their Salvation?
A59222Is here any occasion of fine sport?
A59222Is it Pelagianism to say, we must use our Reason to come to Faith; or, do you pretend all the World must be the worst of Phanaticks, and use none?
A59222Is it meerly built on his Apprehension or Thinking it so?
A59222Is it not Confest and Suppos''d by both Parties that the Faith Taught at first was Divine; and are we to Examin what''s Confest and Granted?
A59222Is it not a Madness to say, a Rule will direct them Right that do not Follow it?
A59222Is it not agreed on between us, that Christ is God, and his Doctrine Divine?
A59222Is it not equally blamable to Falsify your Adversaries Tenet perpetually, as''t is to falsify his Words?
A59222Is it not that Passage that he who has past it, finds himself at that Place?
A59222Is it possible to deform Tradition more untowardly, or wrest it into more misconstructions than has been done already?
A59222Is not this a special way of Regulating himself by the Rule of Justice, and a most Cheap way for a Man to pay debts without disbursing a farthing?
A59222Is not this mighty Learned?
A59222Is not this pleasant?
A59222Is not this to make a man Absolutely Certain of he knows not what?
A59222Is shall know and may know all one?
A59222Is that an Answer?
A59222Is the holding the Godhead of Christ, and that God dy''d to save and redeem Mankind, a Matter Necessary to Salvation?
A59222Is there any possible way to ascertain this, but by our Doctrin- Rule?
A59222Is there no more requisit to a Rule, but to be the Word of God?
A59222Is this Solid Answering or plain Prevaricating?
A59222Is this Tradition a Rule of Faith distinct from Scripture?
A59222Is your sober Enquirer Bound to use these means for his satisfaction in doubtful Points, or not?
A59222Lastly, does his Friend only tell you''t is self- evident?
A59222Lastly, why is not an Extrinsicall Ground or Testimony prov''d to be such by Intrinsicall Reasons sufficient in our case?
A59222Lastly, why must his Providence be confin''d to only Translaters and Transcribers?
A59222May he not with as good Sense say that Two and Three do not make Five?
A59222Means he then''t is not a Proper Medium to prove Christ''s Faith deriv''d to us who live now?
A59222Miss tho''they follow it?
A59222Most Excellent?
A59222Must all Men necessarily be Scepticks who allow not his No- way of doing this, tho''they propose and Maintain a certain way that can do it?
A59222Must my Memory be blam''d, when their Judgments are in fault?
A59222Must we bid them rely on their Private Interpretations of Scripture?
A59222Must we bring them the Publick Interpretation of it by the Church?
A59222Must we produce such invisible things for open Proofs?
A59222Must we then, at the first dash, alledge the Publick Interpretation of the Church Divinely assisted?
A59222Must you be minded that an Arguer is to prove his Conclusion, and an Answerer to shew he does not, by assigning where and how he fails?
A59222Must you be minded that the Business must be stopt before it come to the Conclusion, and that otherwise there is no speaking against it?
A59222My last question shall be, Whether your sober Enquirers are not to come to their particular Faith, by this their particular Rule of Faith?
A59222Nay, Thomas a Iesu, Azorius,& c. who were of the same Judgment?
A59222Nay, do not they all alledge the same?
A59222Nay, is it not worse, being less liable to discovery, and so more certainly and more perniciously Injurious?
A59222Neither of them is his Concern: What does he then?
A59222Never spare me, good Sir, nor balk your mirth for me if I give a just Occasion: But where lies the Jest?
A59222Next he asks, Are all People Capable of this Certain Reason?
A59222Next, he asks, what if the matter propos''d by this Certain Authority which I have found out by my Reason be very much against Reason?
A59222No such matter: and the Accidental occasions of it''s writing at first, and it''s Acceptation afterwards, bar any such Pretences?
A59222Nor Lastly, not to advert that even the Divinity of Faith depends, in some sort, on Naturall Means?
A59222Notwithstanding?
A59222Of what Account do you speak, I beseech you?
A59222Onely I must note your forgetfulness, or what else may I call it?
A59222Only those Dogmatical Points controverted from time to time between the Sons of the Church, and her Deserters; of which, and none but which, we speak?
A59222Or are you to adhere to it as his, whether you are certain''t is his or no?
A59222Or by what Means shall we come at it?
A59222Or does he imagin the Thoughts of the Christian World could take a Walk of two or three Hundred years between Is and Is not?
A59222Or does he show that all these may not fail if the Churches''s Care be set aside?
A59222Or does he show that without the Care of the Church preserving the Letter Right all along, he can have any Such Certainty of the Letter?
A59222Or does he think I meant that that single Epistle was half or three quarters of the Canon of Scripture?
A59222Or does it depend on them to be or not be the Way he left, as they happen to be different?
A59222Or durst they disgrace themselves by going about to avail themselves of such an open and Notorious Lye?
A59222Or how does he make good his judgment of Discretion, or overthrow ours?
A59222Or how is the Demonstration lost if many men err''d upon divers other accounts so none err''d while they follow''d Tradition?
A59222Or how shews he that a seen Fallibility is able to beget Absolute Certainty?
A59222Or is it enough to hold it was only a Man to whom they owe that highest Obligation to Love him?
A59222Or is it not enough for our purpose when''t is confess''d on both sides that Christ''s Doctrine is Divine?
A59222Or is it not possible to keep this roving Pen of his to any thing?
A59222Or keep those from Errour who took a Way, that, for any thing he has prov''d to the contrary, facilitated men to fall into it?
A59222Or rather, would it not have preserv''d men from them, had nothing else been attended to but that Rule?
A59222Or that All Christians have gone upon this Principle?
A59222Or were those Words a jot less Sacred when it came from their Mouths, than when they put them in a Book?
A59222Or what do you mean?
A59222Or what''s her Teaching to the Immediate and Certain Light to know Christs Sense in those Main Articles?
A59222Or where did we prove we follow''d this Rule only with iffs?
A59222Or would she have condemn''d them had they spoke her thoughts or follow''d her Doctrin?
A59222Or, How come I to stand in your way?
A59222Or, Is this any thing to the Council of Trent, as you pretend?
A59222Or, are not ten millions of Attesters as able to cause Absolute Certainty as Twenty?
A59222Or, can not I use a plain word in the Context of my Discourse falling in naturally, because he had misus''d it unskillfully and inartificially?
A59222Or, do you so much as pretend they do?
A59222Or, ever the more Title to an Estate, because an Adversary may have the ill luck to be Non- suited?
A59222Or, forfeit the Dignity of Pastours and Leaders, because they are not Infallible?
A59222Or, that the Apostles did not instruct people in those Main Articles?
A59222Or, will he recurr to Divine Assistances to keep Particular Persons from Errour, and yet deny them to the Church?
A59222Our General Objection then against* your whole Paragraph is this, that you never apply your several What ifs?
A59222Pray Sir, do You take my sence, or say what I do?
A59222Pray Sir, what''s become of your Jest?
A59222Pray be candid, and tell us, After a thing is plain in Scripture, are you to value a straw, what either Primitive Church, Creeds, or Fathers say?
A59222Pray what ails this Argument?
A59222Pray what assistance do you afford them to determin either way?
A59222Pray, Sir, who sent you?
A59222Pray, how comes Mr. G. to lye under an Obligation, from which Men of Reputation in his own Communion are exempt?
A59222Pray, what Conscience is yours, if mine be bad when I say as you do?
A59222Pray, what''s the Way to a Place?
A59222Pray, when will that When of yours be?
A59222Pray, which is more aukward?
A59222Pray, who are or can be those some who take it and will not keep it?
A59222Principle; in which You endeavour to establish Scripture to be a Rule?
A59222Question, What Churches you accounted Christian Churches?
A59222Shall we never have done with this ridiculous and palpable Nonsense?
A59222Since, notwithstanding you have your Rule, you are still as far to seek as before in all a Rule should be good for?
A59222Still he asks, Are not we Certain because some( that is, the Socinians) are not Certain?
A59222T is ask''t, whether this Testimony assures us certainly the New Testament contains all the Divine Revelations?
A59222That a Means will bring a man to his End, who does not use it?
A59222That a Way will keep a man from Straying in his Journey who does not walk in it?
A59222That is, will you affirm the same Virtue does not work the same Effect if the matter be capable?
A59222The Apostles did Miracles to attest their Doctrin: Did St. Luke, do any to attest the True Sense of all he writ in those Points?
A59222The Point is, how does he clear himself?
A59222The Point still sticks: How can an indifferent man, seeking for Faith by your Rule, be satisfy''d They abuse it more than You?
A59222The Proposer''s?
A59222The Second Proposition is[ And if they follow this Rule they can never Err in Faith] what says he to this?
A59222The best way, say you?
A59222The case then between us being such plain sense, what says the Learned Dr to it?
A59222This gives me occasion to ask you what becomes of Your Rule, and, consequently, of Your Faith all that while?
A59222This he should have prov''d solidly and clearly: But, instead of proving it, he barely says it; and who will at this time of day believe his word?
A59222This is the only Point, and therefore must only be omitted: what''s this to a Nurse''s Teaching to read?
A59222This lay upon him to prove, and this with Absolute Certainty, if he would have Scripture an Intire Rule of his Faith; How proves he it?
A59222To Christian Faith as''t is Divine?
A59222To maintain that Christian Faith needs not to be Absolutely Certain?
A59222To what end all Instructions, Conferences, and Explications of them by the Pastours?
A59222To what imaginable purpose then was this frivolous distinction brought in?
A59222To what purpose is it, to talk Sense to a man who is resolv''d to run still so wildly into Nonsense?
A59222To what?
A59222Was his Answer the same in Sense with the Question?
A59222Was it Ambiguous?
A59222Was it False?
A59222Was the Position as it lay in the terms of the Proposer, true; and, so, to be granted?
A59222Well, but did I say true, or no?
A59222Well, but how came he off with that Task?
A59222Well, but what are my* words?
A59222What Reply made Dr. Tillotson?
A59222What Shift has he then?
A59222What a weakness is this, to suppose Miracles must be done for no other end, but that you may answer our Argument?
A59222What absurd pretences not lay hold of, rather than be brought to this odious and dangerous thing call''d Proving?
A59222What answers he to common Sense and to his own Experience too when he instructs others?
A59222What answers he to this plain Evidence?
A59222What answers he?
A59222What are People the wiser now?
A59222What do you call being wanting to themselves?
A59222What do you talk then of erring for, and mistaking and abusing the Way?
A59222What does he then?
A59222What effect can this have upon those who do not yet hold that Tenet; and, consequently, how can this be a Proper Argument to convince them?
A59222What have we to do with Opinions?
A59222What if some Sons were so negligent as to take no care either to remember or teach what they had been taught by their Fathers?
A59222What if some, through Ambition, Vain- Glory and Popularity, set a broach New Doctrines, and taught them for Apostolical Tradition?
A59222What impertinent Brabbling is this?
A59222What is''t then you call Misunderstanding a Rule?
A59222What man in his senses ever said or thought it?
A59222What may you mean by this?
A59222What mean these dry Common words?
A59222What means he, or how can he apply this to our Question?
A59222What miserable Stuff is this?
A59222What needed then this shuffling Paraphrase?
A59222What new Stratagem must be invented then to avoid it?
A59222What pityfull Trifling is this?
A59222What reason has Mr. G. to prove it a second time?
A59222What says he to this?
A59222What says he to this?
A59222What says the Dr now to this plain state of the Controversy?
A59222What says the pleasant Dr to this?
A59222What then is this Absolute Certainty?
A59222What then?
A59222What will this come to at last?
A59222What wretched Shifts are these?
A59222What''s become of his Sincerity and Morall Honesty, which he so profest to Love?
A59222What''s your particular Rule?
A59222What?
A59222What?
A59222When a Father believ''d what Christ taught him, and the Son what the Father believ''d, did not the Son too believe what Christ taught?
A59222When a Truth is once prov''d, is it not prov''d, notwithstanding all Objections?
A59222When that very[ Peradventure] hinders his Certainty from being Absolute or Perfect?
A59222When will the day come, in which you will shew your Faith to be solidly- grounded on the Word of God?
A59222Where will you pitch when you light?
A59222Where your Conscience?
A59222Where''s your Love of Moral Honesty?
A59222Where''s your Sincerity?
A59222Which once put, what can all the other, esteem''d by you but Human Authorities, serve for?
A59222Who ever question''d that God was Living or Infallible; or that he has left us an Infallible Word?
A59222Who ever said it?
A59222Whose Sense?
A59222Why conceal''d he the true Meaning of the word[ Traditionary] given by us, but took it purposely in another Sense, and then rally''d upon it?
A59222Why did I not say that All Christians are Traditionary?
A59222Why did he not Instance in the Trinity, the Godhead of Christ and such like, which and only which we say are Obscure?
A59222Why did he not grant it then?
A59222Why does he not Suspend?
A59222Why does he not confute all my Book by that Method?
A59222Why is he then so high against me for exposing him, when those of the Church of England have already expos''d him more than I have done?
A59222Why is it then ridiculous to profess we do this?
A59222Why must it be quite forgotten then, and buried in silence, that they taught any thing by word of mouth or preacht the Gospel publickly?
A59222Why no Reply to my Confutation of his smartest or rather Only Argument to prove Scripture a Rule, given by me particularly to every Branch of it?
A59222Why not a word in Confutation of an Infallible Iudge, as that Point is stated by me?
A59222Why not a word of Answer to my Discourse shewing Absolute Certainty& Infallibility to be the same?
A59222Why nothing to justify that his Assent of Faith may not be False, and so, no Faith?
A59222Why nothing to the unavoidable force of our Argument, manifesting it to be Self- evident that Tradition is a Certain Rule?
A59222Why quote you not the page where we say this?
A59222Why should not his Sober Enquirers trust the Church rather than themselves; and why no Answer to the Reasons why they should?
A59222Why such wincing and kicking?
A59222Why, First, he says, If by Fallible Certainty I mean this and that,& c. I mean?
A59222Why, I said, Suppose Mr. G. could not prove Protestants are certain, are they therefore certain?
A59222Why, do you think it is with Arguments as with Writs, where the want of a Non obstante spoils all?
A59222Why, suppose Mr. G. could not prove that Protestants are not Certain, are they therefore Certain?
A59222Why?
A59222Why?
A59222Will it not follow, that he who at his Journeys End finds himself at York, did not go the Way to London?
A59222Will it not follow, that the Way by which a man that goes in it comes to Errour, is not the Way to Truth?
A59222Will it shew us, that a Cause can be without its Effect, or an Effect without its Cause?
A59222Will it shew us, that a thing can be and not be at once?
A59222Will it shew us, that a thing which can not possibly be chang''d, may yet possibly remain not the same?
A59222Will the Dr hold to these words?
A59222Will the alledging Invisible Qualifications do the work?
A59222Will this venomous Ca nt never be left?
A59222Will your Notwithstanding shew us there was a time in which Men were not Men, nor acted like Men?
A59222With what Sense can any of this be imagin''d?
A59222With what Sense can any of this be pretended?
A59222Yet, how oft has he heard them say, I am Infallibly Certain of such a thing?
A59222Yet, what is it you will not do?
A59222You Preface to the Third Proposition with asking, who I dispute against?
A59222You proceed: Must a Rule be no good Rule, because some who use it misunderstand it and abuse it?
A59222You question on; Must a Way be a wrong Way, because some that take it will not keep it?
A59222all the Points of Christian Faith( there spoken of) Particular Opinions?
A59222and allowing no Absolute Certainty to any particular Point of Faith, may be called an Answer?
A59222and what wants it, save bare Application, to conclude what was intended as fully and as rigorously as you can desire?
A59222and which shall they be for; the Argument or the Instance?
A59222and why if I would be thought to dispute against you, I do not use such and such Terms?
A59222and, Is not that Essentially your Particular Rule of Faith, that gives you your Particular Faith?
A59222degenerated into Parrots, and learn''d to prate set- Words, without minding their Sense?
A59222especially, since he stands impeacht of destroying Church- Government as to any thing belonging to Faith?
A59222its Plainness to People of all sorts who are to be regulated by it?
A59222l. 32. upon it?
A59222must he put what Sense he thinks fit to the Question?
A59222nor to reflect that our Controversy only treats of them under this latter Consideration?
A59222of Arguing against the Conclusion instead of Answering the Premisses?
A59222or must I stand answering every voluntary saying of his( which are infinit,) every Supposition, and every why not?
A59222or whom does it oppose?
A59222prov''d that Doctor St''s Church has no Certainty of its Faith?
A59222that It is impossible they should adhere to our Rule, and yet erre?
A59222that is, without any Publick Interpreter?
A59222the Souls of the Faithfull, and the Scripture?
A59222was it an Argument?
A59222what Doctrin was Deliver''d immediately before, and this throughout every Age, Year, or Day?
A59222what Grace of God, what Assistance of the Holy Spirit are necessary to such a Faith as this?
A59222what an Answer has that weak man given us?
A59222when you can not but know, they dare not teach them any Faith, but what the Church holds; nor does the Church hold any but upon Tradition?
A59222why did he not deny it?
A59222why did he not, the Proposer being present, desire him to explain it?
