| A62844 | of Miracles? |
| A62844 | or is it that the Christians have a better Right to Mysteries than the Gentiles? |

| A55820 | * Quae pietas ei debetur à quo nihil acceperis? |
| A55820 | * Quid Leges, sine Moribus, vanae proficiunt? |
| A55820 | * Quid faciet is homo in tenebris qui nihil timet nisi Testem? |
| A55820 | * Quo alio tuti sumus quàm quod mutuis juvamur Officiis? |
| A55820 | And if it be possible for him to intermeddle, whensoever he sees convenient, how will they prove he does not? |
| A55820 | And is that Man virtuous, who is so only in Appearance, either for fear of the Law, or for the sake of his Reputation? |
| A55820 | And what''s the Harm? |
| A55820 | And who has told them that he has not done it? |
| A55820 | Are they so, indeed? |
| A55820 | Aut quid omnino, cujus nullum meritum sit, ei deberi potest? |
| A55820 | But are they indeed so? |
| A55820 | But take it at the worst; That Superstition is the sole Cause of Persecution, and of all the Mischiefs attending it: What is the Cure of this Evil? |
| A55820 | But what are those Occasions? |
| A55820 | But( says he) if their Opinion be true; What ground is there left for Piety, Sanctity, or Religion? |
| A55820 | But, how dare Men be so bold to carp at what they are not able to mend; nay, nor in the least degree to imitate? |
| A55820 | Can they be certain of this? |
| A55820 | Do they not evidently contradict the Character they pretend to? |
| A55820 | For what conceivable Right can any one have, to treat those otherwise, who are really within the Bounds of this Restriction? |
| A55820 | For who has assured the Objectors that This is not a probationary State; And that all such irregularities will be set even hereafter? |
| A55820 | For, let us examine further; What is it that can influence any Man in secure Secrecy? |
| A55820 | From whence comes this Fear? |
| A55820 | How shall we answer this? |
| A55820 | I ask then, Would the World receive any considerable Advantage by the spreading of these Opinions? |
| A55820 | If it be not; Or that we are ignorant; Who dares say it? |
| A55820 | Is Deism an ill thing? |
| A55820 | Is it because of any Disorders they observe in the Universe, that they conclude it not to have been formed by an Intelligent Workman? |
| A55820 | Is it for fear of this Mischief, that Men endeavour to destroy the Seeds, and extirpate the Roots of all Religion? |
| A55820 | Is the thing inconsistent with the Scheme of the Universe? |
| A55820 | Is this also impossible? |
| A55820 | It may then be enquired, how shall we do to know what this Uniform Rule is? |
| A55820 | Nam quid crit quare solito dignemur honore Numina, si demas velle juvare Deos? |
| A55820 | Nay sometimes to signifie those that have no such Right at all? |
| A55820 | Nay, What will any Patchings* signifie, whilst our Manners are thus corrupted? |
| A55820 | Nay, numberless Varieties of such Creatures, suited to the various Disposition of those Parts of the Universe where he has placed them? |
| A55820 | Or have Ill Men shrowded themselves under that Specious Name? |
| A55820 | Quando Leoni Fortior eripuit vitam leo? |
| A55820 | Quid in deserto loco, nactus quem multo auro spoliare possit imbecillum atque solum? |

| A55820 | What Breach of Symmetry do we make in the Universe? |
| A55820 | What Difference to me is there between a God that neither can influence here, nor will ever hereafter animadvert upon my Actions, and no God at all? |
| A55820 | What Effect now can the Idea of such a God as this have upon the Minds of Men? |
| A55820 | What Man in his Wits( says he) can, any other way, hope for greater Advantages, than from the Gods; in whose power it is to bestow on us the greatest? |
| A55820 | What Reformation; What Patchings of our shattered Frame, can we expect? |
| A55820 | What do I talk of perswading them to it? |
| A55820 | What is the Reason of it? |
| A55820 | What is the matter then, that this sort of Deists are so busie and industrious in propagating their Notions, and gaining Proselytes? |
| A55820 | What shall we do? |
| A55820 | What will be the Effect of it; suppose the whole World should become thus religious? |
| A55820 | What? |
| A55820 | Which of them shall I then chuse? |
| A55820 | Who is it, that would not abhor any thing that tends to the Ruin of his whole Species? |
| A55820 | Who knows it? |
| A55820 | Will some Sectaries, that may chance to see this Letter, be apt to say; Are no Systems, no Articles, no Creeds, worth enquiring into? |
| A55820 | — Fac nos singulos, quid sumus? |
| A57956 | And can this be effected without the use of Reason? |
| A57956 | And is it possible now to discern the faint and weak glimmerings of Intellectual Light through such profound and clammy darkness? |
| A57956 | And to what Purpose were our Faculties given, if they be of no use in those things wherein we most need them? |
| A57956 | Annon proprio judicio, intellectu, lumine, haec omnia peragenda sunt? |
| A57956 | Are not all these things to be done by a Man''s own proper Judgment, Intellect and Light? |
| A57956 | Are we to put off Humane Nature that we may become Religious? |
| A57956 | Atque hoc quid aliud est quam Ratio fixa& stabilis, rerum omnium rationes nexúsque immoto oculo simul advertens? |
| A57956 | Aut alterius cujuspiam lumine praeeunte ambulabo? |
| A57956 | Aut oculi claudendi penitus, quia Aquilarum carent perspicacitate? |
| A57956 | Aut quaenam alia facultas reliqua est cujus ductu veram Religionem investigemus? |
| A57956 | Can it be imagined that God intended to perplex Humane Intellect with inexplicable subtleties? |
| A57956 | Ergóne luce Meridia ● … destituti, languidiores solis radii contemptui erunt,& tenebrae reputandae? |
| A57956 | Et quem in finem datae sunt Facultates, si nulli esse possunt adjumento, cùm iis maximè est opus? |
| A57956 | For why should the Conjunction of the Deity with the Nature of Christ more trouble the Understanding then the Union of the Soul with the Body? |
| A57956 | Hallywell, Henry, d. 1703? |
| A57956 | If we once forsake the Guidance of Reason must not all Religion be owing either to Education, Superstition or some Fanatical Impulse? |
| A57956 | If we once forsake the guidance of Reason, must not all Religion be owing either to Education, Superstition, or some Fanatical Impulse?] |
| A57956 | Illéne putandus est Religionis capacissimus, qui aut superstitiosus maximè aut oscitanter credulus? |
| A57956 | Is he to be deemed the fittest subject for Religion, who is most Bigotical and carelesly credulous? |
| A57956 | Must he whose Eyes are somewhat dull, be therefore accounted stark blind? |
| A57956 | Nay further, is there need of any other Faculty in the choice of Religion, and such Principles as tend to the Regulation of Life, but only of Reason? |
| A57956 | Now what is this but fixed and stable Reason looking upon the Reasons and Connections of all things at once, and as it were with an Unmoved Eye? |
| A57956 | Num ad normam Principiorum, quae alius mente concepit, vitam meam disponam? |
| A57956 | Num affectus inordinatos argumentis non intellectis edomabo? |
| A57956 | Num alienis oculis videbo? |
| A57956 | Num alterius intellectus meam diriget voluntatem? |
| A57956 | Num cui in mentem venire potest Deum in animo habuisse intellectum humanum non- percipiendis impedire atque implicare subtilitatibus? |
| A57956 | Num cui paulò obtusior est acies, omni prorsus lumine cassus censebitur? |
| A57956 | Num ex solis miraculis? |
| A57956 | Num exuenda est natura humana, ut imbuamur Religione? |
| A57956 | Num quid ideò excellentius quia omnem excedit intelligentiam? |
| A57956 | Num quis alius nostro loco judicium feret? |
| A57956 | Num verò hoc fieri potest sine usu Rationis? |
| A57956 | Or govern my life by the mea ● … ure of another Man''s Principles? |
| A57956 | Or is any thing the more excellent and Venerable, because it exceeds all Understanding? |
| A57956 | Or must we quite shut our Eyes, because they want the sharpness and Perspicacity of Eagles? |
| A57956 | Or shall the Understanding of another direct my will? |
| A57956 | Or walk only by the light that another carries before me? |
| A57956 | Or what other Faculty is there left by who ● … e conduct we can search into the Truth of Religion? |
| A57956 | Or why should we be such Obedient Fools, as to do more for them then God would have us do for himself? |
| A57956 | Quidni itaque Deus uteretur aliquo è nobis, uti Anima Corpore, tanquam Instrumento, quo interveniente consilium suum declaret? |
| A57956 | Quidni& nos eadem Commendatio pertingat, si à quocunque dictata, tanquam legem divinitùs acceptam, severissimo examini subjiciamus? |
| A57956 | Quorsum Benignissimus Deus largitus est nobis Rationis facultatem, si nefas sit, cùm res nostra maximè agitur, eam munere suo fungi? |
| A57956 | Shall I fee with other mens Eyes? |
| A57956 | Shall I mortifie my irregular Affections with Arguments that I do not understand? |
| A57956 | Shall another Judge for us? |
| A57956 | Si Rationis partes deseramus, annon educationi, superstitioni, aut afflatui cuidam Fanatico, omnis accepta ferenda erit Religio? |
| A57956 | Supposing it be, 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 where will be the Liberty of our will? |
| A57956 | What shall this Teacher of Righteousness answer to these Things? |
| A57956 | What then can not Omnipotence do in this kind, if it would? |
| A57956 | Wherefore should a Gracious God bestow upon us the Faculty of Reason, if we must not suffer it to do its Office when our concern is most in Question? |
| A57956 | Why may not God make use of some one of us( as the Soul doth of the Body) as an Instrument by whose Intervention he may discover his Mind to us? |
| A57956 | Will it appear from Miracles alone? |
| A57956 | and where that laudable Assent to the Truth, and Aversation from Lies and Falshood? |
| A55818 | And can we call it any other than the worst, if it be such an Imposture, as you would have it to be? |
| A55818 | And how can any one do this without knowing all Truths, and having them also all ready and present in his mind to consider them in order thereto? |
| A55818 | And how then can it be said, that any thing of worldly interest can be contained either in this Religion, or those holy Books in which it is written? |
| A55818 | And therefore, say they, if signs and wonders can be wrought by false Prophets, how can they be evidences for the true? |
| A55818 | And to this I have these two Answers to return? |
| A55818 | And what Plot can be more wicked than to impose a false Religion upon Mankind? |
| A55818 | And what book can be more such, than that which is to propose a new Law to Mankind? |
| A55818 | And what but the hand of God himself backing and strengthening it in the conflict, could be sufficient to give it such a victory therein? |
| A55818 | And what greater or more desirable interest can this World afford, than such a state of advancement? |
| A55818 | And what is there that is more valued and esteemed in the opinion of all mankind, than the attainment thereof? |
| A55818 | And what worldly interest is it which they could possibly have in this matter? |
| A55818 | But how can God be more dishonoured, than by a false Religion? |
| A55818 | But if the Atheist be the deviser, what intention of Good can the device carry therewith? |
| A55818 | But whoever yet charged* Jesus Christ, or his holy Apostles with any thing like this? |
| A55818 | For can Enthusiasm raise the dead to life again, cure all manner of diseases, and work such other Miracles, as Christ and his Apostles did? |
| A55818 | For can it possibly be said that it was only by Enthusiasm that five hundred Men together saw Christ after he was risen again from the dead? |
| A55818 | For what Plot or Conspiracy have we ever known or heard of, which hath been thus managed, and hath not had some false Brother or other to discover it? |
| A55818 | For what blunders and absurdities do the wisest of the Philosophers lay down concerning the Deity? |
| A55818 | For what other Power but that of the Almighty could raise a Man, who had been four days dead, again to life? |
| A55818 | For who are more fit to be imposed on, than the ignorant? |
| A55818 | For why else should they be so concerned for him? |
| A55818 | For why should the Lord himself put his hand to that work, which may as well be discharged by the Ministry of his Servants? |
| A55818 | For, did he not come from God, how could he have this wonderfull Knowledge, as thus to fore- tell things to come? |
| A55818 | Have any of the ancient enemies of our holy Religion( and it had bitter ones enough from the very beginning) ever recorded any such against them? |
| A55818 | If riches and honour be alledged as their end, I must desire you to tell me, how this could be a means to gain them? |
| A55818 | Or how can we at all rely upon them for the verifying of any doctrine which they deliver unto us? |
| A55818 | Or what other hand, but that of the Creator himself, could make him see, who had been without the natural organs of Sight from his very birth? |
| A55818 | Were he not of the Secrets of the Almighty, how could he so certainly have fore- shown, what in after- times he would bring to pass? |
| A55818 | and what can be more dangerous than to attempt it? |
| A55818 | and what can be more holy, pure, and perfect than the Precepts thereof? |
| A55818 | and what mistakes have those, who exalted Morality to the highest pitch among Men, made therein? |
| A55818 | and what more worthy of us and perfecting of our nature than that Law for the conduct of our lives which he hath delivered unto us? |
| A55818 | and who can be more easie to receive a new Religion, than those who are not prepossessed with any other to prejudice them against it? |
| A55818 | and yet did any one of them ever flinch from it? |
| A55818 | as to the matters of fact contained in the History of the New Testament whoever yet convicted any one of them of falsehood? |
| A55818 | did any one of them ever retract, what he had attested concerning it? |
| A55818 | had they in the least been guilty hereof? |
| A55818 | or have any other ever since from any good authority, or any authority at all, ever been able to tax them herewith? |
| A55818 | or that it is possible for any sort of Men so long to have born all this for the sake of a Lye? |
| A55818 | or that it was by Enthusiasm that his Apostles saw him ascend up into Heaven from Mount Olivet in the presence of them all at noon- day? |
| A55818 | or when did they ever make the least offer in order thereto? |
| A55818 | or whether any one of them ever attained to either thereby? |
| A55818 | or why he should not in so favourable a juncture, as was then offer''d for it, have possessed himself thereof? |
| A55818 | what errours and follies have they taught and practised concerning his worship? |
| A55818 | whether it prescribes us any one particular relating to his worship, but what is most agreeable to those his excellencies? |
| A28444 | 18.18? |
| A28444 | 38.4,& c. Where were thou when I said the Foundations of the Earth: when the morning Stars sang my praises, and all the Sons of God shouted for joy? |
| A28444 | After all this what follows? |
| A28444 | Again, I wonld fain know where she resides after her Departure from the Body? |
| A28444 | All Hail most fair one, what are you doing so solitary and serious under this Shade? |
| A28444 | And where their Thread that very first Day of their Creation? |
| A28444 | Besides, according to what Geography or Hydrography will you have Moses to describe these Rivers Antidiluvian, or Postdiluvian? |
| A28444 | Besides, if the Longaevity or Immortality of Men had depended only upon one Tree, or its Fruit, what if Adam had not sinned? |
| A28444 | Besides, suppose these I know not what kind of Waters had been above the highest Heavens, what had it signified to the people to know this Mystery? |
| A28444 | But according to this solution, pray what did God Almighty create the second day, a little extension or space? |

| A28444 | But shew me, if you can, what is the Substance and Body of the Soul( as it were) by it self? |
| A28444 | But the most confusedly and foolishest Question of all is, What will the World say? |
| A28444 | But what Testimony, with Authority, have they for this? |
| A28444 | But what a folly of follies is it, to think that Death should be the way to a second Life? |

| A28444 | For how can Evil proceed from a Being infinitely Good, and without whom nothing is, if Evil be not? |
| A28444 | For how can anothers sin, wherein we have no hand, be imputed to us? |
| A28444 | For suppose Adam had continued Innocent, how would there have been room for his Posterity within the inclosures of one Garden? |

| A28444 | If you say all, pray what offence had the rest been guilty of, that they also must loose the use of their Tongues? |
| A28444 | It is a common and ancient usage to rob upon St. Albans Road, is it therefore ● ●''e the more lawful? |

| A28444 | who requite the good they did them upon their* Children, or other Relations? |
| A43778 | ; pray now, before we go any further, what are your Thoughts of him? |
| A43778 | And if so Sir, pray why may not the Christians believe there is a Trinity, though some of them may differ in what we must believe concerning it? |
| A43778 | And not only for His, but for any other Man, or Body of Men, as well as King William, when these Men shall think fit to find a Crack in his Covenants? |
| A43778 | And pray Sir, why may we not renounce all unintelligible Mysteries? |
| A43778 | And that none are promoted to Dignities but such who come in upon this Title; as is said Pages the 12th and 13th? |
| A43778 | And that their Controversie at bottom only is, How they shall make the best Market of the People? |
| A43778 | And what Answer Sir, can you make to this Charge? |
| A43778 | And where shall we find( Sir said he) such a Man, with all these Qualifications? |
| A43778 | But Sir, Can you deny that Dr. S. set up a De Facto- ship? |
| A43778 | But now we are talking of Title- making, pray Sir, what Title would this Man be pleased with? |
| A43778 | But pray Sir, are there any of the Clergy preferred, but such as come in upon the De Facto Title? |
| A43778 | But pray Sir, can you deny but that the Ambition and Pride of the Clergy has been often the Ruin of this Government? |
| A43778 | But pray Sir, how shall he make it out as to the Chancellor and Twelve Judges? |
| A43778 | But pray Sir, let me ask you one Question more, if you please, before we have done? |
| A43778 | But pray Sir, said I, how can this be? |
| A43778 | But pray Sir: If there be any Bishops guilty of this Man''s Charge, why did he not Name them? |
| A43778 | But pray what can you say to A''s abusing the Honourable Sir R. H. for his Excellent Treatise? |
| A43778 | But suppose he doth both meet him, and ask him; must all follow what this Man says? |
| A43778 | But this you call Sir, Proclaiming of War; and Rivalling of Sovereignty, do you not? |
| A43778 | But what wickedness may not the Fatalists be guilty of, and charge it upon God when they have done? |
| A43778 | But what''s all this to the business Sir? |
| A43778 | But who can believe him after so many malicious Invectives against them, and their Power? |
| A43778 | But who can guess what, or who he is? |
| A43778 | Can you deny Sir, but that this is now, what Non- Resistance was formerly, the Shiboleth of the Church of England? |
| A43778 | Can you doubt it Sir, is there not waging of War against Men''s Livelihoods, as well as Lives? |
| A43778 | Do they so Sir? |
| A43778 | Do you call the De Facto Title then, a Man of Straw? |
| A43778 | Do you not think that my Friend has by the last Argument plainly demonstrated, that the Bishops of England Rival( as he says) the Sovereign Power? |
| A43778 | Does not my Friend tell you plainly there are not? |
| A43778 | Does not this Man then( said he) envy the Bishops their Estates? |
| A43778 | For who can give a better Account of it, than he that has been one great Cause of it? |
| A43778 | For who that had any Regard to the Honour of his Majesty, would reflect so basely on his Wisdom and Government? |
| A43778 | Has the King his Scepter? |
| A43778 | Has the King his Throne? |
| A43778 | How Sick do they make this good Author? |
| A43778 | How heavy do they lie upon many a good Man''s Stomach? |
| A43778 | How is that proved Sir? |
| A43778 | If he did, why did he not own them? |
| A43778 | If not, why did he not answer them? |
| A43778 | If the same should happen to his Sons in England, How offensive must some Mens Neighbourhood be? |
| A43778 | If we do allow he has, is therefore the De Facto- ship the Shiboleth of the Church of England? |
| A43778 | In short, is the King Enthroned? |
| A43778 | Is it not worth its weight in Gold, as scarce as Mony is now? |
| A43778 | Is not this Argument a plain Demonstration of the Ambition and Pride of the Bishops? |
| A43778 | Nay, Does the King wear a Doublet and Breeches? |
| A43778 | Pray Sir, how does this appear? |
| A43778 | Pray Sir, how does this appear? |
| A43778 | Pray Sir, said I, what is your reason for this Opinion? |
| A43778 | Pray Sir, what would you advise my Friend to do in this Case? |
| A43778 | Pray Sir, who Rivals the Sovereignty now? |
| A43778 | Pray Sir, who leaves a Loophole for King James his Right now? |
| A43778 | Pray what Title is it Sir, that this Man would have? |
| A43778 | Pray what is that Sir? |
| A43778 | Pray who are those Sir? |
| A43778 | So has the Bishop,& c. And now, what think you Sir? |
| A43778 | Suppose this Bishop does not meet Dr. H. there, what then? |
| A43778 | The Bishop is Enthronised; Has the King a Divine Right? |
| A43778 | The Jure Divino Bishops, that say God makes the King; or this Man, that says, He makes Him? |
| A43778 | The Wars they have proclaimed Sir, pray who are they at Peace with? |
| A43778 | Then first of all Sir, as to the Nobility he may Argue, That has the King his Crown? |
| A43778 | To which my Friend replyed, and who knows Sir, saith he, what hidden Reserve this Man had when he made use of it? |
| A43778 | What Convulsions, what Vomitings do they cause in Him? |
| A43778 | What an unhappy Effect had the Spirit of Father Laud upon King Charles the First? |
| A43778 | When it shall be wholly in their Power which shall be Uppermost, the Head or the Rump? |
| A43778 | Whereby it is plain, that your differences are so great about it, that you know not what you believe your selves; and how then shall other Men know? |
| A43778 | Whether that Man be still living or no, who can tell? |
| A43778 | Who Rivals the Sovereignty now Sir? |
| A43778 | Who can believe( said he) this Author can have any grounds to Hope for what he says at last, that has read what he said before? |
| A43778 | Why Sir, was not the King made to pay Fifteen Hundred Pounds a Year to Dr. S. for a De facto- ship only? |
| A43778 | Why did he not produce the Bonds of Resignation they have taken from the Curates, and the Articles they agreed on? |
| A43778 | Why did he not tell us who they be, and where they live? |
| A43778 | Why do you think''t is of no weight Sir? |
| A43778 | Why has not Dr. S. done it Sir? |
| A43778 | Will he conclude that Government is nothing but a Piece of Kings- Craft, and that Government and Governours are Cheats both alike? |
| A43778 | as undeniable Arguments of their Pride and Ambition? |
| A43778 | but the Insolence of the Priesthood that brought about Father Laud''s, and Father Peter''s Revolutions? |
| A43778 | does the Presbyterians dealing barbarously with the Bishops and Clergy, justifie their dealing so with them, and other Dissenters? |
| A43778 | how many vacant Dignities be there then at this time in the Church of England? |
| A43778 | my Lord Chancellor has his Mace: Has the King his Purple? |
| A43778 | so have They: Has the King a Coach and Six, and a numerous Attendants of Lackyes and Foot- boys? |
| A43778 | so have They: Has the King his Robes? |
| A43778 | so have the Nobles their Coronets: Has the King his great Palaces? |
| A43778 | what makes your Friend so sweet all on a sudden on the Presbyterians? |
| A52412 | A Bottomless Depth with( I will not say a Finite, but) so very scanty a Measuer? |
| A52412 | And I pray Consider seriously, and tell me truly, do you verily think in your Consciences that your Reason is the Measure of Truth? |
| A52412 | And are you sure that you always do, I mean so as to act by it, that you hold it in Hypothesi as well as in Thesi? |
| A52412 | And can it be much less for an Infinite Intelligence to have only a Finite Intelligible for its Object? |
| A52412 | And do we not find it so when we Convert our selves to it by Study and Meditation? |
| A52412 | And do you not then plainly see that your great Maxim falls to the ground, that you are to believe nothing but what you can Comprehend? |
| A52412 | And if Christianity be no More, what Proportion( say they) will it bear to its Miraculous Introduction? |
| A52412 | And in order to all this it must also be intimately present to it, and united with it, otherwise how can it so act upon it? |
| A52412 | And indeed how is it possible it should consist in any thing else? |
| A52412 | And indeed if Truth were not Infinite how can the Knowledge of God be so? |
| A52412 | And now Sirs what do you think of your Principle? |
| A52412 | And what Ground of Assurance can we have from either or both of these, which are apt rather to lay a Foundation of Diffidence and Distrust? |
| A52412 | And what an extravagant Folly and Weakness, not to say Pride and Vanity is it to fancy that we can? |
| A52412 | And what better way have we to know the Distinction of things, but only that the Idea of one is not the Idea of another? |
| A52412 | And what is the Object of the Divine, or of any other Understanding, but Truth? |
| A52412 | And what will it be found to have so very Considerable as either to deserve or justifie such an Apparatus? |
| A52412 | And why proud of that which should rather deject us, and make us Humble, of our Imperfections and our Defects? |
| A52412 | And why then are we Proud? |
| A52412 | And yet as if this were not Presumption enough, do you not also make your Reason the Rule of Faith, as well as of Revelation? |
| A52412 | Are not the Sciences continually improved, and yet are there not still Depths in every Science which no Line of Thought can ever Fathom? |
| A52412 | Besides how comes it to be a Perfection of the Divine Understanding? |
| A52412 | But does the supposition of its having Limits infer that it has the same? |
| A52412 | But hold a little, before your Reason can be the Measure of Faith, must it not be the Measure of Truth? |
| A52412 | But how then can we found the Depth of Truth with so short a Line? |
| A52412 | But not to consider Hypothetical Truth, can the Bounds of that which is Absolute be ever fix''d, or its Stock ever Exhausted? |
| A52412 | But now I pray what Ideas are so but the Divine? |
| A52412 | But now how comes it to be so Dark and Cloudy? |
| A52412 | But now what can be more dark and inevident than this Implicit Faith? |
| A52412 | But now where does the Ground of this Consequence rest at last, or upon what Principle does it ultimately depend? |
| A52412 | But suppose I say he should, would you not believe it? |
| A52412 | But then I demand whence has it this Self- subsistence and Independency of Being? |
| A52412 | But then it so, what if we add the other Consideration to it? |
| A52412 | But what is it that makes them Infinite and Incomprehensible? |
| A52412 | But what then, shall we not Believe it? |
| A52412 | But why do you not care to own it? |
| A52412 | By what Logic does this Latter Proposition follow from the Former? |
| A52412 | Can any thing be a Rule to God that is not himself? |
| A52412 | Do not these seem flat Contradictions one to the other, and how then shall we adjust the Matter between them? |
| A52412 | Do you never assent to any thing but what you can Comprehend? |
| A52412 | Do you not see at the first cast of your Eye that you are unavoidably driven upon it by your profess''d Maxim? |
| A52412 | Does he Consult or Follow any thing but what is One with his own Divine Nature and Essence? |
| A52412 | For do we Dispute about Names or Things? |
| A52412 | For how I pray comes the Incomprehensibility of a thing to conclude the untruth of it? |
| A52412 | For how should we be able to know it, or upon what shall we ground this our Knowledge? |
| A52412 | For if the Object of Faith be alwayes inevident so far as Believ''d, then will it not follow that it May be believ''d though inevident? |
| A52412 | For otherwise how should their not being able to comprehend a thing, be an Argument that it is not true? |
| A52412 | For what can be More plain than that Not to Comprehend how a thing may be, and to Comprehend that it can not be, are two different things? |
| A52412 | For what though it be above Reason, is it therefore above Faith? |
| A52412 | For who can define the Out- flowings of the Divine Fecundity, or Number the Rounds of the Intellectual Scale? |
| A52412 | For why may not a thing really and in it self inevident be believ''d, when even that which is Evident is Consider''d by Faith as inevident? |
| A52412 | Has Faith any regard to Evidence? |
| A52412 | His Ground is every whit as Firm and Sure as the others, and why then should the Measure of his Assurance be less? |
| A52412 | How comes it also to be the Rule and Measure of his Will, which can be determin''d by nothing but what is just Reasonable and True? |
| A52412 | How is it that it is Present in all Places, and to all Minds, so as to be Contemplated by them all at the same time, and after the same Manner? |
| A52412 | How, for instance, shall we accord the Vnity with the Trinity, the Society of three different Persons in the perfect Simplicity of the Divine Nature? |
| A52412 | I can not Comprehend such a thing, therefore it is not True, where''s the Consequence? |
| A52412 | If a Finite Being were able to Comprehend Truth, why must Man be that Being? |
| A52412 | If the having any limits does so unqualifie it for the adequate Comprehension of Truth, how then does the having so very short and strait ones? |
| A52412 | If to nothing but what is Clear and Evident, how then to what is Obscure and Inevident? |
| A52412 | Is any thing a Perfection to God but himself? |
| A52412 | Is it not a goodly one, and richly worth all the Passion and Zeal you have express''d for it? |
| A52412 | It is as high as Heaven, what canst thou do? |
| A52412 | No, For though Finite, its Bounds may possibly be extended further than those of our Understandings, and how can we be sure that they are not? |
| A52412 | Or if to what is Obscure and Inevident, how then to nothing but what is Clear and Evident? |
| A52412 | Or is it determin''d by any Rational Motive, I mean that is taken from the Nature of the Object? |
| A52412 | Or whether there be any thing further requisite to the understanding or knowledge of a thing after a full and clear perception of it? |
| A52412 | Since there are so many inconceivable things, or if you please, Mysteries, in the Works of Nature and of Providence, why not in Religion? |
| A52412 | Well, be it so as this Gentleman pretends( though I believe upon Examination it would appear otherwise) yet what is this to the purpose? |
| A52412 | What but One thing excepted from the Verge, and placed beyond the reach of Human Knowledge? |
| A52412 | What is there in the whole Compass of Being that is Necessary, Eternal and Immutable but God and his Divine Perfections? |
| A52412 | Whence again has it its fix''d and unalterable Nature, such as we can neither add any thing to, nor diminish ought from? |
| A52412 | Why can we not enter into the Detail of Providence? |
| A52412 | Will it not inevitably lead you to the denial of all Religion? |
| A52412 | Will not this necessarily lead you to the denial of God the Foundation of all Religion? |
| A52412 | deeper than Hell, what canst thou know? |
| A27428 | And again, What is that which determines the Growth of all living Creatures? |
| A27428 | And again, such a Crust could fall but once; for what Architect can an Atheist suppose, to rebuild a new Arch out of the ruins of the other? |
| A27428 | And do the Atheists thus argue in common matters of Life? |
| A27428 | And how could all the Stars of one Asterism agree and conspire together to constitute an Universal? |
| A27428 | And how could these two Apostles have preached the Gospel to the Lystrians, if they did not use the common Language of the Country? |
| A27428 | And let us examin it further by our Critical Rule: Are the present Revolutions in circular Orbs more beneficial, than the other would be? |
| A27428 | And to what purpose did they cry out and speak to them, if the Hearers could not apprehend? |
| A27428 | And what a numerous train of Absurdities do attend such an assertion? |
| A27428 | And what relation or affinity is there between a minute Body and Cogitation, any more than the greatest? |
| A27428 | And when they scoffingly demand, Why would this imaginary Omnipotence make such mean pieces of Workmanship? |
| A27428 | And would not they have really had as much reason as our Atheists, to plead the power of the Temptation, and the propensity of Flesh and Blood? |
| A27428 | And would not this be a fine bargain indeed? |
| A27428 | Are Adultery and Fornication forbidden only by Moses and Christ? |
| A27428 | Are not God''s ways equal, O ye Children of Destruction, and are not your ways unequal? |
| A27428 | Are not envious and covetous, discontented and anxious minds tormenters to themselves? |
| A27428 | Are such opposite motions both equally mechanical, when in both cases the Matter was under the same modification? |
| A27428 | Are these Barbarians of man- eating Constitutions, that they so hanker after this inhumane Diet, which We can not imagin without horror? |
| A27428 | As if the late Discoveries of the Celestial Bodies had not plainly detected the imposture of Astrology? |
| A27428 | As if, because they are supposed to be Rational, they must needs be concluded to be Men? |
| A27428 | But how came it to be so moved? |
| A27428 | But how came it to pass at the beginning, that the Earth moved in its present Orb? |
| A27428 | But how came the Sun to be Luminous? |
| A27428 | But how could Particles so widely dispersed combine into that closeness of Texture? |
| A27428 | But how little can any Motion, either circular or other, contribute to the production of Thought? |
| A27428 | But it will be asked, why then were the Apostles so slow and backward in reclaiming them? |
| A27428 | But shall the Axis rather observe no constant inclination to any thing, but vary and waver at uncertain times and places? |
| A27428 | But shall this Motion be as much retarded, and the Seasons lengthen''d in the same proportion? |
| A27428 | But then what horrid darkness and desolation must have reign''d in the World? |
| A27428 | But then what security hath he made for the Preservation of Humane Race from the Jaws of ravenous Beasts? |
| A27428 | But then why did they not continue their descent, till they were contiguous to the Sun; whither both Mutual Attraction and Impetus carried them? |
| A27428 | But we answer; First, in the words of St. Paul: Nay, but, O Man, who art thou, that repliest against God? |
| A27428 | But what a forlorn destitute Creature is the Atheist in Distress? |
| A27428 | But what need there many words? |
| A27428 | But with the leave of these Fortune- tellers, did the Stars do this feat once only, which gave beginning to Humane Race? |
| A27428 | But would we rather part with the Parallelism? |
| A27428 | Can any Credulity be comparable to this? |
| A27428 | Did the Blood first exist, antecedent to the formation of the Heart? |
| A27428 | Do not Contentiousness and Cruelty and Study of Revenge seldom fail of Retaliation? |
| A27428 | Do not Pride and Arrogance infallibly meet with Contempt? |
| A27428 | For can it be credible to any rational person, that St. Mark could have that meaning? |
| A27428 | For do not the Nile, and the Niger, and the Ganges, and the Menam, make yearly Inundations in our days, as they have formerly done? |
| A27428 | For every Mountain must have some determinate figure, and why then not a Humane one, as possibly as another? |
| A27428 | For if All have not such a power, what is it that could make that difference between Bodies of the same sort? |
| A27428 | For if it were so; what monstrous absurdities would follow? |
| A27428 | For is not the whole Substance of all Vegetables mere modified Water? |
| A27428 | For since we have shewn, that there is an Incorporeal Substance within us: whence did that proceed, and how came it into Being? |
| A27428 | For to a man that places all his Happiness in the Indolency and Pleasure of Body, what can be more terrible than Pain or a Fit of Sickness? |
| A27428 | For what is Man? |
| A27428 | For where can we put a stop to the Efficacy of the Almighty? |
| A27428 | Hath he an Idea, or Notion, or Discovery of any more? |
| A27428 | Have we then any capacity to judge and distinguish, what is the effect of Chance, and what is made by Art and Wisdom? |
| A27428 | How could we sustain the pressure of our very Cloaths in such a condition; much less carry burthens and provide for conveniences of Life? |
| A27428 | How impudent then are the Atheists, that traduce the easie and gracious Conditions of the Gospel, as Unreasonable and Tyrannical Impositions? |
| A27428 | How many thousand years might expire, before those solitary Vessels should happen to strike one against the other? |
| A27428 | How then can that Motion be the efficient of Thought, which is evidently the Effect and the Product of it? |
| A27428 | How then can the Atheist reflect on his own Hypothesis without extreme sorrow and dejection of Spirit? |
| A27428 | If any one shall think with himself, How then can any Animal at all live in Mercury and Saturn in such intense degrees of Heat and Cold? |
| A27428 | If frequently, why is not this Rule deliver''d in Ptolemee and Albumazar? |
| A27428 | If it was necessary, how then could that Necessity ever beget Liberty? |
| A27428 | If once only at the beginning, then how came it to be discover''d? |
| A27428 | If the Earth in its first constitution had been left to it self, what horrid deformity and desolation had for ever overspread its face? |
