A42456Again, where, think we, meaneth he, that all this was pretended?
A42456Against those words, f Did I not then shew both patience, love, and all good affection?
A42456And indeed what was it to any of us, whether M. Walker had had M. Wottons answers, or no?
A42456And might they not justly so report, when in effect the Ministers under their hands had all joyntly so done?
A42456And to what end then should such a charge be given to the Doctor, that M. VValker should by no means be admitted to the sight of it?
A42456And to what purpose were it, for me to deny, and you to affirme; and so as it were out- vy one anothers credit?
A42456And why so?
A42456But am I, or is any man else bound to reconcile whatsoever contradictions are, if any be, or may be found in M. VVottons writings?
A42456But how, or where, doth M. VVotton thus deride our Orthodox Divines?

A42456For x what Iudge is bound to sentence any man upon evidence not produced?
A42456How many mens writings may more then seven times seven errors be found in, whom it were yet most uncharitable therefore to censure for such?
A42456Is the name of Antonie Wotton then so obscure a title?
A42456Or is every one that is taken in grosse contradictions, of necessity thereupon to be condemned for an heretick?
A42456Or wil M. Walker therefore dare to pronounce Luther an heretick, as denying the truth of Christs humanity?
A42456Purgemme?
A42456Sixtly, suppose it were an error, and a dangerous one to, that M. Wotton maintains; whence knows M. Walker?
A42456Thirdly, what if M. Wotton and M. Bradshaw do not herein at all differ, or crosse either other?
A42456We use to ask, who are blinder then they that wil not see?
A42456What more pregnant?

A42456Yea but, how doth M. Walker, from what he either finds in M. Wotton, or fathers on him, extract a denial of Christs Deity?
A42456Yea take away all benefit of Exposition, and who almost may not be condemned of heresie and blasphemy?
A42456and was not M. Wotton the same?
A42456and why not also, x because I do alwaies those things, that are pleasing to him?
A42456and withall desired me to give mine opinion, whether that were not an error?
A42456and yet what is it, that M. Walker thence here alledgeth?
A42456at least why doth he not arraign and condemn him for an heretick as wel as M. Wotton?
A42456b Where at length shall we have him?
A42456but may very well be reconciled?
A42456d Ecquis innocens esse pote ● j ● ● si acousasse sufficiet?
A42456doth not the same word say, that k he was in favour, yea that l he grew in favour, both with God and man?
A42456for how did not he take upon him to determine what was heresie, when he charged M. Wotton with it?
A42456h Now where, saith he, is the infinite valew of Christs Deity, if he have need of justification and favour for himself?
A42456how cometh he then to say, They?
A42456or was it related only there; but pretended before at the meeting among our selves?
A42456or was not either of these for himself?
A42456u Is this matter of eating our Saviour such a pill to your understanding, that rather then disgest it, you will turne Turke or Infidel?
A42456was it pretended at the Table?
A42456was it the Doctor alone, that told all this faire tale, and pretended all this?
A42456would it thence follow that M. VVotton denies the Deity of Christ?
A42456yea or, that in those very words they speake the same thing?
A42456● iri creditis?
A44658A Friend of mine, of Quality and Learning, told me, he ask''d a Minister why he was displeas''d at the History of Religion?
A44658And for whom is it, that you counterfeit this pious Tenderness?
A44658But has Socinus wrote against Christianity?
A44658But how do Mr. Blount and Sir R. H. differ in the Accounts which they give of the Original of Idolatry?
A44658But now it will be ask''d, why it''s call''d Reveal''d Religion?
A44658But pray how has Sir R. set his Face directly against the Doctrines of Religion?
A44658But what do I talk of good luck?
A44658But what is there, so remote, or hid from others, that a Student can not discover it?
A44658But what says Sir R. H.?
A44658But what shall we do in this case?
A44658But why Sons of Belial?
A44658But why not as well the Rites of the latter from the former?
A44658But why that Consequence?
A44658But why this to the Author of the History of Religion?
A44658But why would the Libeller have us believe to the bottom of an Article, when to the bottom we can not dive?
A44658By what Religion, Sir?
A44658Can we describe it?
A44658Do we understand it perfectly?
A44658Do you think your good Nature will bear you out?
A44658For what Nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them as the Lord our God is in all things, that we call upon him for?
A44658Has he confounded Arbitrary Power that had well nigh confounded the Nation?
A44658How Sir R. H. has provok''d,& c. Has Sir R. H. question''d the Existence of a Deity?
A44658How so; have you dropt the least word against the Doctrines of the Trinity, the Incarnation, or the Satisfaction?
A44658Is a Deist quite as bad as an Atheist?
A44658Is not Heaven a Mystery to us?
A44658Is this the Sobriety of a Bishop Elect; or a Reflection to be prefaced with, a Blessed God?
A44658Now what Disciple of Spinoza or Hobbs could have put such pointed words into the Mouth of a wise Heathen?
A44658Now what if Mr. Blount does build on the same Foundation as Dr. Tillotson?
A44658Now who knows but that Sir R. H''s Socinianism may in time come to be good Orthodox Doctrine?
A44658Now, Sir, what do you think of your self, that would have me deal gently with Men that blaspheme both God, and the King?
A44658One word more with this Nominal Vindicator, Why is the History of Religion such an Execrable Pamphlet?
A44658Very true: But what will he hence prove?
A44658What Nation has so glorious Testimonies of Divine Favour and Presence as you have?
A44658What an insufferable Presumption is it in him, to be positive?
A44658What are the Doctrines of Christianity, against which Sir R. H. has fought with borrow''d Socinian Arms?
A44658What is to be got by believing more than we can understand?
A44658What mean these words, Sir R. H. levels directly at the Trinity, Incarnation, Divinity and Satisfaction of Christ?
A44658What new great Mystery''s this, that''s come to Town, So long kept silent, and so lately known?
A44658What says Momus to this?
A44658What then?
A44658and is it not reasonable, is it not necessary, that the Methods of fitting us for it, and of conveying us thither, should be very mysterious to us?
A44658and what Nation is there so great, that hath Statutes and Jugdments so righteous as all this Law which I set before you this day?
A44658be content that his Character should be open''d, and the History of his Life drawn forth?
A44658good moral Practice?
A44658has he slurr''d the Divine Right of Episcopacy, and given the Prelates but a Parliamentary Right in the room?
A44658how will the Gentlemen answer it to God, and their Country, who have laid open the Inclosures of the Corporation?
A44658if the World be made acquainted, how the Heathen Priests topp''d false Doctrines upon the People, and by cunning wicked Arts made a Gain of them?
A44658or deny''d the Truth of Revealed Religion?
A44658prov''d himself a Blockhead, which he need not have done neither?
A44658that accursed and devoted Head?
A44658was God''s Nature chang''d, was he grown weary of the Purity and Simplicity of the Worship which the best Men of the first Ages paid him?
A44658what''s the fault of that History?
A44658who translated himself but t''other day, from working on another Man''s profane Satyr, to the study of Divinity?
A44658would have done it?
A597911st, I desire to know, whether he thinks the Doctrine of the Trinity to be defensible or not?
A597913dly, How are Atheists concerned in the Disputes of the Trinity?
A59791And is it not better that such Pamphlets should be in an hundred hands with an Answer, than in five hands without one?
A59791And now can any Man tell, what Opinion this Melancholy Stander- by has of the Doctrines of the Trinity, and Incarnation?
A59791And what is the hurt of this?
A59791And when the Faith is publickly opposed and scorned in Printed Libels, ought it not to be as publickly defended?
A59791And whether Christ and his Apostles intended to teach any more?
A59791But I would desire this Author to tell me, whether we must believe Fundamentals with, or without Reason?
A59791But did his Socinian Friends, who were such busie Factors for the Cause, tell him so?
A59791But if these Dissentions be so great a blemish to the Reformation, whose Fault is it?
A59791But is there no danger that the Church may be flung out of possession, and lose the Faith, if she do n''t defend it?
A59791But it will be said, What shall we do?
A59791But let them be never so good Men, as some of the Heathen Philosophers were, must we therefore tamely suffer them to pervert the Faith?
A59791But pray, why should we not write against the Socinians?
A59791But what is that?
A59791But when this fit time is come( for I know not what he means by a fit place) what shall we do then?
A59791But why is it so unseasonable in this Juncture?
A59791Can we certainly learn from Scripture, Whether Christ be a God Incarnate, or a mere Man?
A59791Did they print them, that no body might read them?
A59791Do we then deny, that there are Three Persons and One God?
A59791Does he think that they are no Christians, and ought not to be concerned for common Christianity?
A59791For must we believe the Words or the Sense of Scripture?
A59791However, were it so; is there no regard to be had to Hereticks themselves?
A59791I would ask any man who talks at this rate about a Latitude of Faith, Whether there be any more than One True Christian Faith?
A59791If ever it will be so, why is it not so now?
A59791If it be not defensible, why does he believe it?
A59791If this never will be Christian and Wholesome, what else is to be done to Hereticks in fit time and place, unless he intends to Physick''em?
A59791If we can not, Why should we believe either?
A59791Is not every Divine Person who is God, a Mind, and an Eternal Mind?
A59791Is not the Eternal Spirit, which searcheth the deep things of God, as the Spirit of a Man knoweth the things of a Man, a Mind?
A59791Is not the substantial Word and Wisdom of God a Mind?
A59791Is not this their proper Work and Business?
A59791Is this an Age to resolve our Faith into Church Authority?
A59791Must we be afraid of defending the Faith of the Trinity, lest Atheists should mock at it, who already mock at the Being of a God?
A59791Must we renounce Christianity, to keep out Popery?
A59791Must we then turn all Socinians, to preserve the Reformation?
A59791No, The Adversaries to the received Doctrine( Why not to the true Faith?)
A59791No, our business is to prove it, and explain and vindicate it?
A59791Or does he think, that the Defences made by Trinitarians expose the Faith more than the Objections of Socinians?
A59791Or has Christ and his Apostles left it at liberty to believe what we like, and to let the rest alone?
A59791Or how are we concerned to avoid scandalizing Atheists, who believe that there is no God at all?
A59791Or whether they did not intend, That all Christians should be obliged to believe this One Faith?
A59791Or would he himself believe such absurd Doctrines as they represent the Trinity in Unity to be, merely upon Church Authority?
A59791Ought not they to satisfie themselves, that there is no force in the Objections, which are made against the Faith?
A59791Pray what hurt have they done?
A59791Renounce the Faith of the Trinity, for the sake of Peace?
A59791Theirs who dissent from the Truth, or theirs who defend it?
A59791To believe that the Eternal Word was made Flesh; or that Christ was no more than a Man, who had no being before he was born of the Virgin Mary?
A59791Was there ever such a Reason thought of as this?
A59791Well: What shall we do then?
A59791Were they not dispersed in every Corner, and boasted of in every Coffee- house, before any Answer appeared?
A59791What Faith is that which can subsist without a Foundation?
A59791What Faith must we contend for, if not for Fundamentals?
A59791What else can we dispute for, when Foundations are overturned?
A59791What else is worth disputing?
A59791What is the meaning of that Apostolical Precept, To contend earnestly for the Faith?
A59791What purer Reformers were these?
A59791What shall Christians do then, when Atheists, Infidels, and Hereticks, strike at the very Foundations of their Faith?
A59791What shall we have left of Christianity, if we must either cast away, or not defend every thing, which Atheists will mock at?
A59791What?
A59791When Hereticks dispute against the Faith, must we be afraid of disputing for it, for fear of making a Controversie of Fundamentals?
A59791Whether we must take Fundamentals for granted, and receive them with an implicite Faith, or know for what Reason we believe them?
A59791Why does he let St. Austin escape, from whom the Master of the Sentences borrowed most of his Distinctions and Subtilties?
A59791Why does he not accuse the Ancient Fathers and Councils, from whom the Schoolmen learnt these Terms?
A59791Will he then give us leave to write and dispute against such Hereticks?
A59791Will it ever be most Christian and most Wholesome, to dispute for the Faith against Heresie?
A59791Will the World think that we are all of a mind, because there is disputing only on one side?
A59791With respect to the Doctrine of the Trinity and Incarnation?
A59791how long must we be silent?
A42050And if so, How can two such Persons be in an equal Capacity of Salvation, except a wrong way do as directly lead to Heaven as the right one?
A42050And if so, How could the trial of Religions depend upon the Press in those early days, when as yet it had no being?
A42050And is it not high time to watch the Press, lest any thing steal from thence, which may Poyson the Heads of unwary Men?
A42050And is the, how, all?
A42050And was not the neglect of this Duty a sin in former Ages, when there was not so much as one Press in all the World?
A42050And whom he means by these Hereticks, he elsewhere tells us, Calvinistos& Lutheranos Haereticos esse quis non videt?
A42050Are not their Writings and ours to be seen, and had in many Shops in London, Oxford, Cambridge, and other great Towns and Cities?
A42050Are ten thousand of us at once presumed to be Hypocrites, Juglers, and gross Dissemblers with God and Man?
A42050But here it may be demanded, Who must judge, whether such or such an Opinion be justified or condemned by such or such a Text?
A42050But is the miscarriage of some few Licensers an Argument that they should all be laid aside?
A42050But to whom ought the Care of this be committed?
A42050But what do they speak?
A42050But whence might this gross Ignorance of theirs arise?
A42050But where lieth the Fault?
A42050But why did St. Paul inflict it?
A42050Did any of them ever provoke the professours of Divinity in either of our Universities, to a publick Disputation, and was refused?
A42050Did they give them an universal Liberty of Conscience?
A42050Did they indulge them?
A42050For if our Directions should chance to prove wrong, What Excuse could we make?
A42050Have they not received our printed Answers to their printed Objections?
A42050Have we no Catechisms, no Systems of Divinity left amongst us?
A42050His Inference is this, If the first be their Duty, the Press ought not to be restrained; But why not?
A42050If they have, Why should this Author complain for want of fair Play?
A42050Is a Bridle and a Halter the same thing?
A42050Is it indeed his pleasure, that ill Men, and ill Opinions, should be indulged and countenanced in his Church?
A42050Is the what excluded?
A42050It will not fright Men from considering,& c. but what Men?
A42050Must we permit the Church our Mother, or her Sons who are our Brethren to receive Wounds in their Heads, because we have Balsam enough to Cure them?
A42050Must we permit the Souls of Men to be poysoned, because we abound with Sovereign Antidotes?
A42050Nay more, are there not Popish and Socinian Catechisms to be had in England?
A42050Nay, are there not Books of Controversies exposed to Sale in our Cities, greater Towns, and both our Universities?
A42050Nay, the Psalmist tells his God, They speak against thee; and what wonder then if they speak against his Religion too?
A42050Now, the Question is, Who must judge betwixt us and them?
A42050Of the same mind was St. Paul, who saith, Their Mouths must be stopped; but how can that be done, if there may be no Penal Laws?
A42050Protestants they are, but why are they such?
A42050Quae est pejor mors animae, quàm libertas erroris?
A42050Some Judges have been corrupted, and must we therefore have neither King nor Judg?
A42050Suppose a Man profess the Religion of Mahomet with the greatest Devotion that can be, would not the what condemn him, or would the how excuse him?
A42050Tell me then, are our Bibles out of Print, or taken from us?
A42050The Heretick must not be destroyed, but may he not be restrain''d?
A42050There are indeed in the word of God, as the Apostle saith, Some things hard to be understood; but in what Texts do these difficulties lie?
A42050These indeed are very considerable Objections against the Restraint of the Press, were they true; But how doth our Author prove them so to be?
A42050They who have a good Cause, but who are they?
A42050To this our Lord sent his hearers, Search the Scriptures; and again, How readest thou?
A42050Upon whom, or what, must this sin be charged?
A42050We are abundantly convinced that our Religion can not be false; and why then should any Man presume that we have indeed other thoughts concerning it?
A42050We grant it, but what then?
A42050We have so, and bless God for it; But what then?
A42050We, who teach Men that a false Religion leads towards Hell, do we know our own to be false, and yet embrace it still?
A42050Well, the main Parties, now contending, are the Church of England, and our Socinians, and have not these Men very often been heard already?
A42050What one single Soul would be the worse?
A42050Who must determine, whether the Scripture be on their side, or ours?
A42050Why else doth the Apostle mention the Glorious Light of the Gospel?
A42050Why should he unworthily tell the World, that we dare not suffer our Religion to undergo a fair Trial, for fear it should prove False?
A42050did Hezekiah, did Josiah, nay did Jehu, grant a Publick Indulgence for the Worship of Idols, because many both Laicks and Priests were for it?
A42050the whole Clergy?
A42050〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, shall I bring a Rod to whip and scourge you?
A522913. is Eternal Life promised to Belief in the Son?
A5229153. Who shall declare his generation?
A52291And besides, what signifies the largeness and gloriousness of the Heavenly Bodies, in comparison with Mens Immortal Souls?
A52291And had the Socinian Brethren nothing to do, when they wrote their Summaries of Religion, which are Catalogues of their Fundamentals?
A52291And so now what is become of our Authour''s natural Faith which he makes to be the Mother of the Evangelical?
A52291And what other use do we desire to make of them than this?
A52291And what then?
A52291And why should not poor Athanasius Bishop of Alexandria, a mighty City too, draw as many of his Neighbours of his side?
A52291Are all his Chapters about the Socinian Notions of Faith nothing but slips in the penning?
A52291Are so many Arguments against our Saviour''s eternal Generation nothing else?
A52291Besides, if the Holy Ghost be only an action, with what propriety of speech can he be said to act or do?
A52291But I say, What constat is there that he designed only this?
A52291But after all, What constat is there that he designed this to be handed only to those Members?
A52291But for all our Authours hast, why ca n''t we imagine a third way, that he should be two Natures, and but one Person?
A52291But how can he draw from these words, that he had an implicit Faith in the other?
A52291But how does he prove that it may not be so for all the Doctrine of the Trinity?
A52291But how does he prove that?
A52291But however, why should we not dispute concerning a Mystery?
A52291But then, what is this to our Authour''s purpose?
A52291But to pass over this, what though this Controversy was setled by Theodosius?
A52291But what are these to Three distinct Persons in one Essence?
A52291But what disgrace is it to this Council to be Condemned by an Heretick and an Usurper, as Basiliscus was both?
A52291But what is this idle Excuse of an Arian Conventicle to the great Orthodox Council of Nice?
A52291But what though there did arise some Troubles in the Church, upon this dispute of our Saviour''s Divinity?
A52291But what though they did cap Scripture?
A52291But who ever said, that our Lord''s name, being in any Proposition, gave truth or dignity to it purely as such?
A52291But why must every explication of the Possibility of the existence of a thing make it comprehensible?
A52291But why must this be an implicit Faith in two Bishops?
A52291But why should difficulty make a defect of Faith?
A52291But why should not the Bishop of Constantinople, by the same rule, have as many always at his command?
A52291But why should they be lead by the Greatness of his City?
A52291But why so?
A52291But why so?
A52291But, by the Authour''s Favour, who ever, of the Orthodox, said, our Lord''s Person was comprehensible, or ever pretended to comprehend it?
A52291But, why this to the Convocation?
A52291Do the Rubricks, Canons, Articles, or any other Publick Authority of the Church say any thing like it?
A52291Doth not this( says the Authour) plainly deny a Resurrection of the same numerical Particles?
A52291For what can we suppose those Men to say or do, which out of base compliance to a wicked Emperour, had denied their Faith?
A52291For, I pray, what difference is there between Sabellius''s Explication of the Trinity and the Doctor''s?
A52291Has he any 〈 ◊ 〉, that the Compilers of the Common- Prayer designed any such thing?
A52291How all the Gospel is Faith and Repentance?
A52291Now can any mortal Man conclude from hence, that the word God is used to signify something indefinite?
A52291Now in the Union of the Divinity with the humanity, wherein possibly can their Oneness consist, but only in their personality?
A52291Now is not this a pretty excuse after so long hammering out?
A52291Now what can be meant by knowing Jesus Christ, but knowing or believing his Divinity?
A52291Now what sense is there generally in Mens Excuses, when they are resolved to do an ill thing, and want something to say for the doing of it?
A52291Now, is this the Explication that agrees to a Syllable, both to the Holy Scripture, and the Church of England?
A52291Now, what can the Authour draw from this?
A52291Now, what should all this gladness and rejoicing be for?
A52291Or else how come they to make use of that pretty distinction of a God by Nature, and a God by Office?
A52291Quid sibi saxa cavatae, Quid pulchra volunt monimentae?
A52291The Question was put, whether they believed in Homo- ousium or in Christ?
A52291The Sun is a glorious Body, and the more we strive to pry into its Constitution by gazing on it, the more we are blinded; and what then?
A52291V. Why Faith made a greater Figure under the Gospel, than it did under the Law?
A52291Well, but the Authour says, if the Trinity be a Mystery, why should we dispute any longer about it?
A52291Well, but what is this to the Union of Spirits, or rational Beings?
A52291What Changes or Additions latter Ages have made in Matters of Faith?
A52291What alterations or additions have after Ages made in it?
A52291What figure Faith made in natural Religion?
A52291What if ye shall see the Son of Man ascend up where he was before?
A52291What natural Faith is?
A52291What say you, O blessed Paul?
A52291What was that Gospel which our Lord and his Apostles preached as necessary to be believed?
A52291What was the Gospel which our Saviour and his Apostles preached?
A52291Whether it is not promised to the Belief of the true God?
A52291Whom of his stamp did he find there, that he could dare to communicate such a Book to?
A52291Why has not he whom the Father has sanctified,& c. a better claim to this Title?
A52291Will he allow, that Arius, and Euzoius, and Eusebius of Caesarea,& c. were only playing the Fools, whilst they were drawing up their Creeds?
A52291With what tolerable sense can an action be said to speak?
A52291Would not this be as good a Conclusion to all intents and purposes?
A52291are the Orthodox to blame that asserted it, or the Hereticks that denied it?
A52291are there Two Wills, and Two kinds of Operations, or but One?
A52291because our Eyes are so weak that we can not stare into the Furnace of the Sun, must we therefore take it for a Candle?
A52291but what if the relation between the written word and the rational consequence, be so remote, that none but a skilful Herald can drive its Pedigree?
A52291don''t we know the Sun when we see it for all this?
A52291is this the putting the old Materials into a new and better Frame, which he so boasts of?
A52291or who else does he mean by this We?
A52291† Now what is that which is in the graves, but only the Bodies of Men?
A52291† Quid unquam aliud Conciliorum decretis enisa est Ecclesia, nisi ut quod antea simpliciter credebatur hoc idem postea diligentius crederetur?
A52291† Testimoniorum quae sunt genera?
A38042& c. To coakse the Mob he prophanely brings in that place of Scripture, Have any of the Rulers believ''d in him?
A380424. Who but the Vindicator could imagine that these Evangelical Doctrines are not Necessary Matter of Faith to Christian Men?
A38042AND now, to prove yet further the Pernicious Nature of his Writings, doth any man doubt of their Tendency to Irreligion and Atheisin?
A38042Again, granting that the Epistles were all of them writ to those that already believed, yet what can this be to his purpose?
A38042And O how he grins at the Spirit of Creed- making?
A38042And are not these Truths the proper Object of our Faith now under the Gospel, they so peculiarly belonging to the doctrine and belief of the Messias?
A38042And do not these foresaid Texts, which we find in St. Paul''s Epistles, acquaint us with the true Source and Quality of our condition by nature?
A38042And how indeed can they be?
A38042And is not the Reader satisfied that such language as this hath real Truth in it?
A38042And is there no Atheism in this?
A38042And is this set down to no purpose in these Inspired Epistles?
A38042And must he tell the world that the Iesuitical Writers take the part of the Socinians?
A38042And where can we be inform''d concerning the Rise and Nature of this Evil, but in the Sacred and Inspired Writings?
A38042And who could do this but a man that was wholly careless of his Credit, and did not care how he acted?
A38042And why may we not distinguish between these and the Occasional Matters as well as between the Others and them?
A38042And why should not every one of these Evangelical Truths( which is another thing he puts into his Question) be believed and imbraced?
A38042Are we not particularly and expresly told by St. Luke that he writ his Gospel to the most Excellent Theophilus?
A38042But I ask, Why had we not a hint( one gentle hint at least) of this in all his Book?
A38042But he deridingly cries out What will become of me, that I have not mention''d SATISFACTION?
A38042But was it not judiciously said by this Writer that it is well for the Compilers of the Creed that they lived not in my days?
A38042But what is this that he hath to say of my Booksellers?
A38042But what need I, Good Sir, do this, when you have done it your self?
A38042But when doth he do this?
A38042But who doth not wonder more at his Insincerity, that he should act thus?
A38042But who sees not that hereby they depress Christianity, and unspeakably injure the Faith of the Gospel?
A38042But who sees not that this is a mere Elusion?
A38042Can there be a more extravagant way of talking than this?
A38042Can this Writer himself consider this, and not blush?
A38042Can we believe in him, and yet not believe these Great things which are brought to light by his preaching the Gospel?
A38042Did he not, when he writ to the Galatians assert the doctrine of Justification through faith in Christ''s Righteousness, without the Works of the Law?
A38042Do we not know that the Four Gospels were Writ to and for Believers as well as Vnbelievers?
A38042Do you not hereby proclaim to the world that you will put off the Reader with any idle and groundless Conceit of your own?
A38042Doth he not perceive that the discarding of all the Articles but One makes way for the casting off that too?
A38042Doth not this plainly shew that this is All that is requir''d to be believ''d as Necessary to make a man a Christian?
A38042For I ask, what was the end of his being sent?
A38042How impossible then is it for himself to know his heart?
A38042How the Second and Third Persons can be Self- existent?
A38042How then come you, Mr. Examinator, to invent these things for him?
A38042Is it not enough to rob us of our God, by denying Christ to be so, but must they spoil us of all the Other Articles of Christian Faith but One?
A38042Is it not reasonable that a Christian should( as the Apostle speaks of himself) know whom he hath believed?
A38042Is it not requisite that we should know it and believe it?
A38042Might not the Apostle, yea did he not in his Epistles to these Persons remind them of the Great Articles of the Christian Faith?
A38042Must no Believers have any Fundamentals taught them?
A38042Must not this then be his Lasting Character that he hath in his Writings demonstated himself to be not only a Socinian, but a False hearted one?
A38042Nay, did they not require Assent to them?
A38042Now, Sir, you with your Reasonableness of Christianity, what do you think of this?
A38042Suppose they have forgot the Fundamentals, or have corrupted and perverted them?
A38042The use of it, and that in the very way that I have applied it, is to be found in Scripture: Art thou the first man that was born?
A38042This takes up 18 or 19 whole Pages: and why?
A38042Was it not enough, I say, to do all this( which loudly proclaims him a Socinian) but must he also hold the world in hand that he is none?
A38042Was it not that those they writ to might give their Assent to them?
A38042Was it not to Help Mankind, to rescue and deliver them from some Evil?
A38042Were ye baptised in the name of Paul?
A38042What a weak and pitiful Consequence is this?
A38042What dost thou chiefly learn in these Articles of thy Belief?
A38042What is the meaning of Catechizing, which hath been so universally commended and practised by the Ancients?
A38042What is there that he will not take hold of to be Sportive and Gamesome?
A38042What is there that this Gentleman will not turn into Ridicule or Falsity?
A38042What need we have any other part of the New Testament?
A38042What shall we say then to such men as these who will vouch any thing?
A38042What shall we say to such an Oblivious Author as this?
A38042What shall we say?
A38042Who but a Socinian can believe this?
A38042Who could do this but a Socinianiz''d Writer?
A38042Why did the Apostles write these Doctrines?
A38042Why is this sometimes urged without the mentioning of any other Article of Belief?
A38042Why must he be said to be the Ablest Defender when we can name so many Eminent Writers in other Countreys that have perform''d this task?
A38042Would not a Man be hooted at for such Arguing as this?
A38042Yea, is not this absolutely requisite?
A38042as our First Parent Adam?
A38042for what is excluding them wholly but defying them?
A38042had he not enough of the Quaker but he must bring in the Iesuite?
A38042must he publickly give notice that they both carry on the same work, and joyntly conspire to pervert the Scriptures in order to it?
A38042of Christ''s Coming) which all Christians( especially Socinian Christians) are agreed in?
A38042that Iesus is the Messias or Christ, is so often repeated in the New Testament?
A38042the Apostacy of Adam( for he is that one Man) and the dreadful Consequences of it, expressed by Death and Wrath?
A38042the Bishop) say, God must be from himself, or self- originated?
A38042was this only to teach One Article of Faith?
A59811And are they not already concluded by the Articles, Liturgy, Homilies,& c. which he says our Adversaries can not alter?
A59811And did the Dean charge him with any thing more?
A59811And has not that School Divinity enough in it?
A59811And how comes he to know his thoughts?
A59811And if we may do this, Why is it not seasonable to do it now Hereticks are so busy in perverting the true sense of Scripture?
A59811And then Calvin disliked it also; but so he did Episcopacy; and will he think that a sufficient ground to censure our Reformers for retaining it?
A59811And whether that were a good reason not to dispute for the Being of a God, because Atheists denied it?
A59811And who desires him to do more?
A59811Are they not his Friends who move these Ancient Boundaries of Peace?
A59811Basil did dye after one Council only had sat, did not the rest there named live and write after more Councils than one had sat?
A59811But after all, How would this put an End to these Controversies?
A59811But ca n''t he believe what Reason and Divine Revelation Di ● tate?
A59811But can he never be sure of this in any Texts that have been Controverted?
A59811But does a God Incarnate signify any more, but that he who is Incarnate is God?
A59811But does he really think the Church desires no man to believe the Creeds, and particularly the Doctrine of the Trinity, but only not to oppose them?
A59811But have we not whole Systems of Opinions now a- days made up into Confessions of Faith?
A59811But if this were all, Do our Socinians observe this?
A59811But is there not the same reason of it, as of those things that are?
A59811But let us see how he makes it good, What then, do you think of a t ● cit connivance at their stay at home?
A59811But must nothing be done, from whence bad men may take occasion to be Hypocrites?
A59811But then I pray, what is the Latitude in an Vnit, considered as an Unit?
A59811But then, What do you think of a tacit Connivance quietly to come to our Congregations?
A59811But to what purpose are these Citations?
A59811But what has he to answer this Authority?
A59811But what is all this to the Publick Constitutions of a Church, and the Laws of Communion?
A59811But what is this to our purpose?
A59811But what of all this?
A59811Can any thinking man say so?
A59811Did he do that, only that he might have liberty to Ridicule and Expose it?
A59811Doth she indeed hand them to us merely as her own Determinations?
A59811For if I confess that God is Almighty in the most express terms that can be imagined, may I not for all that affirm, that he is not Just or Good?
A59811For in this present Controversy what had he to do with their other Errors?
A59811He could assign many words pitch''d upon from time to time, to guard the Faith and prick the fingers of Hereticks,& c. What then?
A59811However, he is so great a Lover of Peace( why then does he quarrel so much with the Orthodox Writers, and the Church of England?)
A59811I would ask him also, Whether he did not Address to all Learned Writers against the Socinians in this Conttoversy, as well as to the Dean?
A59811If Dr. Sherlock does not argue well, must no body therefore write, that can argue better?
A59811If his Hypothesis be unreasonable, is it therefore unreasonable to write in Defence of the Doctrine of the Trinity?
A59811If our Author answers this too with a Why not?
A59811Is it then to no purpose to teach men the Truth, because they may put upon us, and say they believe it when they do not?
A59811Is it to no purpose to require men to profess their minds sincerely, because we can not always be sure whether they do or no?
A59811Is not this agreeable to the common form of speech?
A59811Nay, and is not what follows, Censuring our Litany and the Compilers of it?
A59811No doubt but he has: What then?
A59811Now what is this to the design of his Book, to persuade men not to Write in Defence of the Doctrine of the Trinity?
A59811Now who can tell what he means by merely her Determinations?
A59811Or do they contradict them?
A59811Or is the Doctrine it self unreasonable?
A59811Pray what''s the matter now?
A59811Pray who are they that will not l ● t it rest?
A59811They are only some Reflections on his Answer to an Objection started by himself in these Words, shall we tamely by a base silence give up the Point?
A59811This he very roundly answers, and utterly confutes, with a short Why not?
A59811Was the dispute, whether the Dean should write in defence of the Doctrine of the Trinity, or whether the Doctrine of the Trinity should be defended?
A59811Why does not he first persuade them to comply thus far, before he desires us not to defend the Church''s Doctrine?
A59811Why then may we not Write in Defence of the Doctrine of the Trinity, and show what is the true sense of Scripture in that Point?
A59811Why then, Must they not be obeyed?
A59811Will his Socinian Friends submit to it?
A59811Will the Socinians be generally Converted any more than they are by Learned mens Writings now?
A59811Will they admit Socinian Opinions?
A59811Will they leave off making Proselytes to their Heretical Opinions?
A59811Will they then not say a word against the Doctrine of the Trinity, nor endeavour to spread their Errors any farther?
A59811Will this justify the writing of that Piece?
A59811and the fittest persons a Committee chosen by that great and reverend Assembly?
A59811must we all pass contentedly for Socinians in the eye of the world, and be afraid to say we are none?
A59811or if they do, will he give us leave to Oppose them and Defend the Truth?
A5183753.8, He shall be taken from prison and judgement; therefore Man: yet who shall declare his generation?
A51837According to what nature doth this office belong to Christ, Divine or Humane?
A51837All things were made by him: What, all without exception?
A51837And are not these great Points?
A51837And how by him?
A51837And must this Religion that condemneth all frauds, and doing evil that good may come of it be supported by a lye?
A51837And that ye put on the New man which after God is created in Righteousness and true Holiness?
A51837And what blessing was that?
A51837Believe ye that I am able to do this?
A51837Besides, if he had it then how could he want it now?
A51837But how do we receive this atonement?
A51837But how is he infinite, if he hath onely a finite Nature, such as a mere Creature hath?
A51837But why was a Ransom necessary?
A51837Did God ever speak to him, or appear to him?
A51837Did the Winds and Seas obey Christ?
A51837Did they do this by command of God?
A51837For the first objection, how was Christ the first, since many were raised before him?
A51837God is offended, and what peace can they have?
A51837Hath God said?
A51837He that brought such multitudes of creatures out of the dark Chaos, hath he forgotten what is become of our dust?
A51837He that gave Life and Being to that which before was not, can not he raise the dead?
A51837He that made the world out of nothing, can not he raise the dead?
A51837He was God: What did he then do?
A51837His Attributes yours, his Providences yours, his Promises yours, what may not you promise your selves from him?
A51837His Kingly Office: How can that be exercised without an Infinite Power?
A51837How can a Magistrate be said to forgive an offender, when the offender beareth the punishment, which the Law determineth?
A51837How he made all things?
A51837How he made all things?
A51837How he received this Doctrine from the Father?
A51837How is Christ an Head to this Body?
A51837How is it a part or fruit of Redemption?
A51837How was he the first- born?
A51837If God be your God, why should you be troubled?''
A51837If he were not perswaded of it, would he say to Christ, My Lord, and my God?
A51837If it were not by his express commandment, would he suffer such an attempt to go unpunished?
A51837If the Fear of God be true Wisdom, to whom should we seek for it, but from the Wise God?
A51837In the beginning; where was the Word?
A51837Iohn begins his Gospel with the dignity of Christs Person, and how doth he set it forth?
A51837Is there any time, or manner, or speech noted by the Evangelists when God made this Revelation?
A51837Is there any work which the one doth, but the other can not do?
A51837It concerns us much to see whether we be in peace or trouble, if in trouble you see the cure, if in peace the next question is, is it Gods peace?
A51837It should be a check to our sluggishness, and mispense of Time: doth God now continue me?
A51837Now can not he put our disordered souls in frame again?
A51837Now shall we doubt of it?
A51837Now this should strike our hearts?
A51837Now what is a divine, and infinite Power if this be not?
A51837Now who can convert himself, or chang ● his own heart?
A51837Now who could do all this but God?
A51837Or how could his finite Nature, without change and conversion into another Nature, be made infinite?
A51837Secondly, Why the Creation of Angels is so particularly mentioned and insisted upon?
A51837Shall poor worms make bold with his Laws, slight his doctrine, despise his benefits?
A51837That Christ as Creator beareth such Affection to man as the work of his hands: Is it good unto thee that thou shouldst despise the work of thy hands?
A51837Then the creature would be independent, and whether God will or no they would conserve their being, and then how should God Govern the World?
A51837Thirdly, How is this an evidence and assurance to all good Christians, of their happy and glorious Resurrection?
A51837Thirdly, Why the Creation of Angels is so particularly and expresly mentioned?
A51837Thou hast layed the burden of all this people upon me, have I conceived this people?
A51837To whom then will ye liken God?
A51837Was it a personal priviledge peculiar to them only?
A51837We are still sinning against God, either we are omiting good, or committing evil, what will we do if we be not forgiven?
A51837Well then before any creature was Christ had a divine Glory, how had it he?
A51837What are the parts of his headship?
A51837What can the Father do which the Son can not do also?
A51837What is Redemption by the blood of Christ?
A51837What light can we see in a Candle when the Sun shineth in his full strength?
A51837What matter is it whether I be a Dog or a Man, a Beast or an Angel, if I serve not the end for which I was made?
A51837What reverence do we owe to him who is our Creator and Preserver as well as Redeemer?
A51837What shall I say?
A51837What this Reconciliation is?
A51837When did he make the angels?
A51837When he made the Angels?
A51837Who can interpret these speeches and A ● ● ributes, but of one who is God- Man?
A51837Why this Excellency of our Redeemer should be so deeply impressed upon our minds and hearts?
A51837Why this should be much upon our minds and hearts?
A51837Will Christ fail us?
A51837You glory in your Riches, and preeminence now, but how long will you do so?
A51837Your own Resurrection, what may facilitate our belief and hope of it?
A51837and to raise men to those inclinations, and affections to which nature is an utter stranger?
A51837by the Creation of the World, by the Eternal Word; and what he saith, is an answer to these questions, When was the Word?
A51837can Ministers Preach, Print, too much of them?
A51837can private Christian Hear, Read, Meditate too much of them?
A51837containing the very vitals of Gospel Revelation?
A51837he did not answer as Iacob did to Rachel,( when she said, Give me children or I dye) Am I in the place of God?
A51837of a very sublime nature?
A51837or Abraham see him?
A51837or can not God govern the World without countenancing such a deceit?
A51837or how are we interessed in it?
A51837or is it possible that such Holy persons as our Lord Jesus and his Apostles were, could be guilty of such an Imposture?
A51837or what likeness will ye compare unto him?
A51837the first- fruits?
A51837the first- raised from the Dead?
A51837to have a Divine Nature put into us?
A51837to what end and purpose?
A51837was he not still the Image of God in our nature?
A51837what is there among all the Creatures that can be like such an infinite and almighty essense?
A51837what shall we do?
A51837when he sitteth at the right hand of God, till he hath made his ● oes his Footstool?
A51837who shall make us of unclean to become pure and holy?
A51837with God; what was the Word?
A51837would he witness from Heaven this is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased?
A51837〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, what then shall we understand by things in heaven?
A3803311?
A3803313. which are spoken of the general Resurrection at the last day?
A3803315 But could he thus speak if the Racovian Position be true, that the Punishment allotted to the wicked at the last day is their Utter Dissolution?
A3803321. and not acknowledg this?
A380335. and can any but Volkelius imagine that* this Form of Speech signifies that they shall be punished, if they be guilty of such and such Crimes?
A38033And can he do so if they that have done all the Mischief imaginable to others, shall feel none themselves here or hereafter?
A38033And do we question then whether there will be this Judicial Action, which we properly call Judging or Trying?
A38033And if they be not deeply concerned for that which is their Darling Point, what can we think of them as to the rest?
A38033And is not the same Atheistick Tang discernible in their denying God''s Foreknowledge of future Contingencies?
A38033And must it not be the same if it be Annihilation?
A38033And now who would not think that Paedobaptism were wholly discarded by the Socinians, and that they can not with a safe Conscience allow of it?
A38033And shall we silently and tamely permit this?
A38033And there is an Inward one, but what is that?
A38033And what is the reason?
A38033And what saith their famous Master?
A38033And who could expect any other thing?
A38033And who will not add, that this is the high Road to Atheism?
A38033And why then do the persons I am speaking of, whilst they follow the Example of the Romanists, seem to condemn them?
A38033Are these the men that talk and write against the Superstition and Idolatry of the Church of Rome as well as that of Pagans?
A38033Are they not hereby confirm''d in their dislike and contempt of what is Sacred?
A38033Are they not to be deem''d very slippery Gentlemen when they thus say, and unsay?
A38033Are we not sure that there are some Irish as well as English ingaged in the service?
A38033Bold strike in with this Company, and vote this Writer to be the Christianissimo( next to LOUIS) of this Age?
A38033But are the English Socinians of this mind?
A38033But are the English and Modern Gentlemen of the same opinion?
A38033But can we be so uncharitable as to think that the Unitarians of our times are guilty of this?
A38033But have they nothing to reply?
A38033But how can he do this if he hath no knwledg of them?
A38033But how can they deny God''s Prescience of Futurities when it is made the Peculiar Character of the Deity?
A38033But how derogatory is it to the Excellent and Perfect Nature of the Deity?
A38033But how do our late Penmen approve of this?
A38033But shall we believe the Racovian Catechism or St. Paul''s words?
A38033But they alledg another Text, What and if ye shall see the Son of Man ascended up where he was before?
A38033But what can be more contrary to those discoveries which are made to us in the Sacred and Inspired Writings?
A38033But what if this Fable be in Scripture?
A38033But what then?
A38033But when this writer saith these men of Art are in an Evil Conspiracy, what is the meaning of that?
A38033But who are these Men of Art?
A38033But would you know what is the true reason of their slighting and undervaluing this Royal Penman who dictated all by an Infallible Spirit?
A38033Can his Care and Providence be exercised about them, and yet he be wholly Ignorant of them?
A38033Can the condition of some persons be more tolerable than that of others, if their Punishment be the very Same?
A38033Can we think it is not necessarily included, though it be not expressed?
A38033Can we think then that the Gospel of St. John was writ against Cerinthus, and yet that Cerinthus writ it?
A38033Do not these men talk like Infidels?
A38033Doth the Great Ruler of the world shew himself Just if they be neither punish''d in this life( as often it happens) nor in another?
A38033Have there not been seen strange Outlandish Books at the Press of late?
A38033How few are there at this day that can endure sound doctrine?
A38033How high an affront is this to the Divine Majesty, that he should allow and approve of these Impurities and Immoralities?
A38033How then can it be said by these Writers that the Image of God wherein our first Parents were created did not consist in Sanctity and Righteousness?
A38033How then can these men challenge the name of Christians?
A38033How unreasonably then do the Socinian Writers cry out against this Just and Wise Dispensation of Heaven?
A38033If their Ethicks be so depraved, what can we think of their Christianity?
A38033If they shall say( and what will they not say)?
A38033If this in them was counted an approach to Atheism, why may it not be reckon''d as such in the persons I am speaking of?
A38033In a word, can it be thought that they speak and think of God as if they had a real belief of him?
A38033In short, shall they neither be punish''d here, nor hereafter?
A38033Is it not said, he will bring every work into Judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil?
A38033Is not Crellius''s Stock somewhere harbour''d among them?
A38033Is not here again a plain siding with the Roman Doctors, and their Device of Merit and Perfection?
A38033Is not here an Example set them for this purpose, and do we not see it daily followed?
A38033Is not here then 〈 ◊ 〉 great defect of Religious Principles?
A38033Is not the Transaction of the Last day represented to us as a Formal Judiciary Process?
A38033Is there not need of the inward gift of the Holy Spirit that we may believe the Gospel?
A38033Is this the Language of one that hath a due respect and reverence for the Scriptures?
A38033Likewise, who sees not that the Providence of God extends it self to this sort of future actions and occurrences?
A38033May we not suspect some Transylvanians and Polanders employ''d in the work lately?
A38033Must they only be deprived of their beings, and at the same time of the sense of all that is painful or hurtful?
A38033Need I now come with my old Charge?
A38033Now, will not any rational and considerate man infer hence that our English Socinians are very cold and unconcerned in their Religion?
A38033Or is this all their Punishment, not to suffer any?
A38033Or, can they be Infallible, and yet Err?
A38033Shall not the Judg of all the World do right?
A38033Shall these men then be call''d Rational( tho I know none call them so but themselves and their Admirers) who assert the contrary?
A38033Shall we then think it impossible for him to resuscitate the same body, though we should grant it to have been for a time annihilated?
A38033Take away this, and what a Damp is there to Vertue and Religion?
A38033Take it thus with the preceding verse, which will lead us to the true sense of it, Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ?
A38033That this is the will of God we learn from the Sacred Writ: and where can it be learnt but there?
A38033This is the Divinity of the Socinians, and who can expect any Moral Truths from them when they discourse after this manner?
A38033To what end and purpose do Reprobates rise again, and are brought to Judgment, if there shall immediately follow an utter Extinction of them?
A38033What is this but bringing down this Inspit''d Author to the same level with Plato and Seneca, or any other honest Moralist?
A38033What means this giving and delivering up the dead in those places, unless the very same bodies that fell are to rise?
A38033What shall we think of these Socinian Writers that discourse after this rate?
A38033What strange Contradiction is this, to reckon our Saviour as a Fictitious God, and yet to pretend to venerate him as a True one?
A38033What therefore is it that these men will not say or do, if they have a mind to it?
A38033What think you of those words of the ‖ Ring- leader of the Party?
A38033What will the Impious Despisers of Religion, what will the Atheists say to this?
A38033Whence then have these Men Authority to suffer the observation of the Lord''s day, since they themselves vouch the utter Abolishing of it?
A38033Where then is their Infallibility, which hath been owned by all Christian Churches?
A38033Whereupon I ask him, is this belief necessary to make a Man a Christian, or not?
A38033Whither shall I go from thy Spirit?
A38033Who but Faustus Socinus would have believ''d this?
A38033Who can read that remarkable passage of the Psalmist, and not believe this?
A38033Who knows where to have this People?
A38033Who will not say( and that on just grounds) that here is more than a Vergency to that cursed genius which I have before mention''d?
A38033Why is this said but to shake the belief of the Soul''s Immortality, and to make men stagger about this Important Point?
A38033Why then are we nice in distinguishing, when they are not differenc''d as to their work and design?
A38033Would not a Thinking Man be induced to believe that they are at the bottom Favourers of the Pontifician Interest?
A38033Would you know the Reason of it?
A38033and who but a Well- willer to Atheism would have broach''d it?
A38033and yet will there be no Judging?
A38033how can it with truth be said by them that there was no Positive Moral Goodness and Rectitude in them?
A38033i ● … not here a demonstration of the Impio ● … Disposition of their Minds?
A38033if these Fundamental Principles be overthrown, what a wretched state will Religion and the Professors of it be reduced to?
A38033must it therefore be counted Unreasonable and Incredible?
A38033or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
A38033when they vouch the most Immoral actions to have been lawful all the time till our Saviour''s coming?
A38033where is the head that hath no Chimaera''s in it?
A50867& c. But I ask, How does that appear?
A5086715. allow them to be clear Truths?
A5086731. he mentions only these?
A5086732. and other places of Scripture?
A5086736, 37, 38, 39, 40?
A508676. doth he not plainly imply, that there is a Knowledge less certain?
A5086762. in these I am; is an Answer only to this Question, Art thou then the Son of God?
A508677. that they shall be condemn''d only for working Iniquity, and not for Unbelief?
A50867Again, Where was there any such Code that Mankind might have recourse to as their unerring Rule, before our Saviour''s time?
A50867Also, how can he say as he doth, that Vice and Blame every where go together?
A50867And after all, what is this to us who live now?
A50867And can they be clear Truths, and yet not certain?
A50867And can we not conceive an Image that doth not include Matter?
A50867And doth he not also repeat it, When this corruptible,& c.?
A50867And is it not as clear from hence as any thing possibly can be, that they had some Principles or Communes notitiae written in their Hearts?
A50867And may we not likewise ask him where it is, that the Lord Herbert mentions Innate Principles or Innate Impressions?
A50867And when Pilate ask''d him, whether he was a King?
A50867Are all that call themselves Christians, agreed as to all the other Advantages which he mentions?
A50867As there was a time before the Son of God was incarnate or cloath''d with Flesh, so hath he after his Incarnation ceas''d to be cloath''d with it?
A50867Besides, how can it be worth the while to enquire after the Rule of reputed Vertue?
A50867But I ask, How had it been shewn?
A50867But afterwards he proposes the Question, Whether these Americans liv''d without any Religion?
A50867But against whom doth he say this?
A50867But how appears it that he is call''d so as Man?
A50867But how doth he prove that it denoted the Person of our Saviour as a proper Name?
A50867But how will he hence make good this Inference, Therefore, of these two, Believing and Repenting, one alone is oft put for both?
A50867But in what Words doth the Apostle appeal to common Repute?
A50867But now what would he gather from this?
A50867But will he hold to this, that St. John knew nothing else requir''d to be believ''d, and admit of no Limitation, or Exception?
A50867Can there be an universal Consent, when besides particular Persons, there are whole Nations that do not consent?
A50867Certainty, doth not perfectly agree to them?
A50867Dei, l. 19. c. 1. speak of two hundred eighty eight Sects or several Opinions concerning it?
A50867Did he not know that it was necessary to believe One Only True God?
A50867Did he not know that it was necessary to believe, that God rais''d the Lord Jesus from the dead?
A50867Doth this, that it is the best Worship of God, amount to no more than this, that God is pleased with it?
A50867For why may we not argue as strongly for the universal Pastorship from the latter Words, as from the former?
A50867He says he does by no means deny it, but does he believe it?
A50867How appears it that these are Solomon''s Words, and not the Sayings of others, which Solomon only repeats?
A50867How knows he, that there are not some other Epistles which were not written after twenty years after Christ''s Ascension?
A50867How was this executed?
A50867I die daily, may we not suppose that he had respect to the Afflictions and Sufferings that came daily upon him for the sake of Christ?
A50867I would ask him, Whether the Jews understood not this Appellation, the Son of God, so as that it denoted the Person so call''d to be God?
A50867IT will possibly he ask''d, What Advantage have we by Jesus Christ?
A50867If he do not deny it, why doth he dispute so earnestly against it?
A50867If he thought this a sufficient Answer to others, why should it not be a sufficient Answer to him?
A50867If they had not understood that by owning himself to be the Son of God he had made himself God, how could they say that he blasphem''d?
A50867If this was the true Reason, Why did it not restrain him from mentioning other things wherein he, and some that are called Christians, do not agree?
A50867If thou thinkest that the whole Church was built upon Peter alone, what wilt thou say of John the Son of Thunder, and every one of the Apostles?
A50867Is it his Meaning, that the eternal Son of God, the second Person in the Trinity, was cloath''d with Flesh?
A50867Is it probable that Solomon would affirm absolutely, as his own Sense, that Man hath no Pre- eminence above a Beast?
A50867Is it then in the Words, whatsoever is of good Report, that he appeals to it?
A50867Is not the Word Death taken in this Sense in other places of Scripture?
A50867It may be enquir''d also, what he means by that Expression, Whilst cloathed in Flesh?
A50867Lock give of this his strange Assertion, that the fore- mention''d Proposition is of very little use in Humane Life?
A50867Lock himself confute this Notion concerning the Obscurity of Words, when he faith that Christ brought Life and Immortality to light by the Gospel?
A50867Lock means by the vastly greater Majority of Mankind?
A50867Lock must either retract this, that''t is plain out of S. Luke that Art thou the Messiah?
A50867Lock often saith they are?
A50867Lock plainly makes Art thou the Son of God?
A50867Lock prove that those were writ after thirty years from our Saviour''s Ascension?
A50867Lock say that he was not cloath''d with it after his Resurrection?
A50867Lock say that the general Resurrection is not spoken of in these Places?
A50867Lock say that the points of natural Religion were so seldom controverted?
A50867Lock say that there are few deprav''d to that degree as not to condemn in others the faults they themselves are guilty of?
A50867Lock says that this Proposition is fit to be inculcated: But on whom is it to be inculcated?
A50867Lock to this?
A50867Lock too severe in pronouncing them to be of no use at all, unless the particular Measures and Bounds of all Vertues and Vices were innate Principles?
A50867Lock when he says, The Son of God was cloath''d with flesh?
A50867Lock''s Mind in thinking, are they material?
A50867May not this be comprehended under the word Death, Gen. 2.?
A50867Might he not call him the Image of the invisible God, as God; and the first- born of every Creature, as Man?
A50867Must it not be a most manifest wrong Judgment that does not presently see to which side in this Case the Preference is to be given?
A50867No man will say that Art thou the Christ?
A50867Now I ask, What is it that is rais''d in Incorruption, in Glory, in Power, and a Spiritual Body?
A50867Or is Creeds put for Creed by the Mistake of the Press?
A50867Or why are the Rewards of another Life of weight enough to determine the Choice against the Pleasures of this, but because they are the greater Good?
A50867Section?
A50867Shall we dare to say that the Gates of Hell could not prevail against St. Peter only, but could prevail against the rest?
A50867Should it be put into Form, how strangely would it look?
A50867So as to Man''s chief Good or Happiness, were there no Controversies, no diversity of Opinions, about that?
A50867THE Faith for which God justified Abraham, what was it?
A50867The Apostles were to teach adult Persons before they baptiz''d them; and what were they to teach them?
A50867There he allows this Proposition to be a clear Truth; but how could he pronounce it to be a clear Truth, if he did not understand the Terms of it?
A50867They had a Belief of the Messiah to come?
A50867They may perhaps also ask, Whether all that do not actually oppose the Being of a God, or not actually disbelieve it, do consent to it?
A50867Were not the several Sects of Philosophers divided about these things as well as about others?
A50867What can be more plain?
A50867What can be more plain?
A50867What is this, upon this Rock I will build my Church?
A50867What says he in his Third Letter to this?
A50867What thinks he of a Death of Afflictions, outward Sufferings and Calamities?
A50867When S. Paul says of himself, that he was in Deaths oft, may we not interpret it in Sufferings oft?
A50867When shall the Saviour the Lord Christ effect this wonderful Change, that our vile Body shall be made conformable to his glorious Body?
A50867Whether he were the Messiah?
A50867Which made them all cry out, Art thou then the Son of God?
A50867Why doth he endeavour, to the utmost of his Power, to baffle the Arguments that are urged for the Proof of it?
A50867Why then doth he that himself, which he condemns in others?
A50867Will he say then, that we owe them to the Superstition of a Nurse, or the Authority of an Old Woman, or our Educations?
A50867Will he say, that Men shall not be condemn''d for their Impenitence?
A50867Withal, how appears it, that one of them alone is oft put for both?
A50867Yea, doth not our Saviour himself, and likewise the Apostles, urge several Duties in the Words of the Old Testament, and making use of its Authority?
A50867You will say, Is it not impossible to admit of the making any thing out of nothing, since we can not possibly conceive it?
A50867and Art thou the Messiah?
A50867and Art thou the Son of God?
A50867and Art thou the Son of God?
A50867and not to that other, Art thou the Messiah?
A50867and, Art thou the Messiah?
A50867behold ye have now heard his Blasphemy?
A50867i. e. Dost thou then own thy self to be the Messiah?
A50867i. e. Dost thou then own thy self to be the Messiah?
A50867or if it did, doth that prove that it is us''d as a proper Name in those places of the Acts?
A50867p. 29. he seems to complain of those that blam''d him for contending for one Article?
A50867take notice of the various Sentiments about it?
A50867that it is nothing else but our Opinion,& c.?
A50867who shall deliver me?)
A497961. Who spake?
A4979625?
A497964. Who made them by him?
A49796All these significations are here intended: But to whom is he so convenient, profitable, necessary?
A49796And again they said, Now therefore why should we dy?
A49796And again, The Cup which my Father hath give ● me, shall I not drink it?
A49796And how can these purge the conscience?
A49796And how careful will they be in case of all means, which conduce to this perseverance?
A49796And how merciful must he needs be, that was tempted himself?
A49796And how much is this silly and unworthy Creature honoured?
A49796And how should we?
A49796And is his coming so certain, and so speedy, and hath God said so?
A49796And shall he endure, and we be impatient under so light a burden?
A49796And shall he, so far more excellent then we are, endure so long, so patiently, from such unworthy persons, so vile, and so much contradiction?
A49796And shall it trouble us to part with that which one day, and we know not how soon, must be taken from us?
A49796And shall the word of the eternal Son of God be disobeyed, and any Offender guilty in this particular escape everlasting penalties?
A49796And shall we reject it?
A49796And shall we so unworthy, not endure far less?
A49796And that his Argument might be more forcing, he proposeth it interrogatively, To which of the Angels said he at any time?
A49796And to whom sware He, that they should not enter into His Rest?]
A49796And what shall I more say?
A49796And where do we find political representation, for Power and Lordship signified in Scripture by such terms?
A49796And why should be fear the Tryal, or, upon the Tryal, Damnation or eternal Death?
A49796And why should the thoughts of bearing his Reproach torment our minds?
A49796And why should this voluntary Humiliation be either any the least derogation from the Excellency of Christ?
A49796And why?
A49796And will any man imagine that the Apostle in so few words so full of different matter would tautologize?
A49796Are our Sufferings comparable to his?
A49796Are we stronger then He?
A49796But by what Warrant, and according to what Rule, did these Priest receive Tythes of their Brethren?
A49796But how and by what was this signified?
A49796But how did Isaac thus bless his Sons?
A49796But how guilty are we of neglect?
A49796But if Christ did not glorify himself, and take upon him to be a Priest, how did he acquire his Sacerdotal Power?
A49796But suppose it should signify sometimes, ● ay often, to take away; doth it follow from thence that therefore it must so signify here?
A49796But suppose we come, what may we expect, or what shall we receive?
A49796But the Question is, To whom he bowed?
A49796But thirdly, What Covenant is this?
A49796But thirdly, Why is this Clause added and inserted?
A49796But what are these Duties exhorted unto?
A49796But what kind of Comparison is this?
A49796But what might be the cause of this dulness?
A49796But what moved him to do this?
A49796But what was the issue of this Promise in respect of the Israelites?
A49796But what?
A49796But who is this High- Priest?
A49796But why may i ● not be an Hebraism?
A49796But with whom was He grieved forty years?
A49796But, how great is our Ignorance of these things?
A49796By what was this Doctrine confirmed?
A49796By whom He spake?
A49796By whom did he speak then unto them?
A49796By whom they were made?
A49796By whom was it confirmed?
A49796Could not God have raised a Priest of that Order far more excellent than Aaron?
A49796David might well admite and say, Lord, What is man, that thou takest knowledg of him?
A49796Doth God any thing in vain?
A49796Doth he desire a Covenant?
A49796Doth he desire a Mediator of this Covenant?
A49796Doth he desire an High- Priest?
A49796Doth he desire his Ministry in Heaven?
A49796Every exhortation implies the desire of the Oratour, or party exhorting; otherwise, why doth he perswade?
A49796For it might be said, What Reason, Suasive, Motive, may be given, why we should be so careful to perform this Duty?
A49796For shall we provoke the Lord to jealousy?
A49796For to which of the Angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee?
A49796For what place doth take or affect us more than that of our Birth, Inheritance, Kindred?
A49796For when we have sinned, what should we do, if we had not him our righteous Advocate and Propitiatour with his Father?
A49796For who shall lay any thing to the charge of God''s Elect?
A49796For who, or what can separate us from his love in Christ?
A49796For, saith he, How then shall the Scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?
A49796For, to which of the Angels said he?
A49796For, what need terrify or trouble them, or shake their hearts, when God hath assured them of eternal life?
A49796Hath Christian Religion no such thing?
A49796Here it''s expressed Interrogatively; For what Son is there whom the Father chasteneth not?
A49796How deeply is he engaged and obliged to eternal gratitude and obedience?
A49796How justly may God charge the Blood of the Souls of our Apostate Brethren upon us?
A49796How long will my Saviour delay his Coming?
A49796How much mischief was done to the Church by Simon Magus, Cerinthus, Ebion, Valentius, and other Hereticks?
A49796How shall we escape?
A49796How unlike unto Christ are all such, who presume of their own merit, and despise such as Christ hath called?
A49796How unwilling are they to part with them?
A49796I see the place of mine eternal Rest afar off, when shall I come near and enter and enjoy my God for ever?
A49796If God had given this Command, and Christ had never obeyed it; how could it have sanctified us?
A49796If Men will believe Men swearing; how much more should we believe and rest satisfied in the Oath of God?
A49796If you endure Chastening, God dealeth with you as with Sons; for, what Son is there whom the Father chasteneth not?
A49796In the words, four things are to be considered: 1. Who spake?
A49796Is it singular in this particular?
A49796It is God that justifirth: Who is he that condemneth?
A49796It might be said, If they were so poor, imperfect, and ineffectual, why were they observed?
A49796Let not any slatter themselves, and think to escape: For how shall we escape, if we neglect,& c?
A49796Not long before his Death, he said, Now my Soul is troubled, and what shall I say?
A49796Of which it might be said, that it''s a matter not of Joy but Grief, and how then can it proceed from Love, and be any wayes beneficial?
A49796Seeing it''s not[ expiatorium& redemtorium], as they grant it is not, How should it be the same?
A49796Shall I never see an end of this Battel, and obtain a final Victory, and so triumph for ever?
A49796Shall the word of Angels transgressed be so severely punished?
A49796Shall we come out of Aegypt, and come so near the borders of the heavenly Canaan, and turn back?
A49796Shall we sin against so great a Majesty, so great a Mercy?
A49796So that for Christ to be heard, was for Christ to be delivered: But what was he delivered from?
A49796Some read them Interrogatively, For then should they not have ceased?
A49796The Answer follows, though proposed, as the former, Interrogatively in these words, But to them that believed not?]
A49796The Expression seems to be taken from the words of the Prophet, Who are these that fly as a Cloud, and as Doves to their Windows?
A49796The Question is, But with whom was He grieved forty years?
A49796The Saints of God sometimes will cry out, Oh when shall these Labours, these Difficulties, these Sufferings of ours have an end?
A49796The Sin is the neglect of the Gospel: The punishment is implyed in the words How shall we escape?
A49796The first is, Whether it be necessary and essential to a Priest to have sins of his own, for which he must offer?
A49796The great doubt is, Whether of these is here intended?
A49796Therefore sung the Psalmist, Why leap ye, ye high Hills?
A49796Therefore we must remember both the advice which Christ gives us, when he saith unto us, Take ● ● thought, saying, What shall we ent?
A49796These Fathers in particular were those who sojourned in Aegypt, 430 years after the Promise was made to Abraham, which informs us?
A49796These words may seem to give a Reason, why they sought a heavenly Country: And why?
A49796They did hear it; for how should they hear without a Preacher?
A49796They give a reason why Christ was lower then the Angels, and suffered Death: And why?
A49796They were come to God the Judge of all: What is the Body without an Head?
A49796This is not only obscure, but, if well examined, false: For what is it[ of its own nature to procure?]
A49796This is the Question, To whom did God thus swear?
A49796To examine and thoroughly search our hearts, that we may more clearly understand our spiritual condition, Whether it be good or bad?
A49796To whom He spake?
A49796To whom did He speak?
A49796To whom?
A49796Was not the High Priest a Priest before he entred with the expiatory blood into the holy Place?
A49796What can Man desire which he shall not have?
A49796What can he want which God hath not provided for him?
A49796What more could be done?
A49796What peace is?
A49796What?
A49796When He spake?
A49796When did God speak to the Children?
A49796When will he come in the Clouds of Heaven, with all his holy Angels?
A49796Where are our Bowels of Compassion?
A49796Where is our Christian Charity?
A49796Whether our Faith be sincere, and our Profession real or no?
A49796Whether we tend unto Perdition or Salvation?
A49796Why by his own blood?
A49796Wretches?
A49796Yet both words signify, they had no fixed place of habitation amongst men: But then it might be said, Where did they wander?
A49796Yet if any ask, When shall we receive the Reward?
A49796Yet it may be said, What was this to these Hebrews?
A49796Yet why might he not be called after the Order of Aaron?
A49796Yet, to what end must they remember all this?
A49796and how much is his estate advanced by this Relation?
A49796and how should they hear without a Preacher?
A49796and how?
A49796and shall no Offender escape?
A49796and to leave that place which suddenly must be left?
A49796and when was he made?
A49796and who makes it, and where is it made?
A49796and who were those Israelies, who, by this Oath, were absolutely debarred of all entrance into that Land?
A49796are ye able to conquer Death, turn Mortality into Eternity, and Earth into Heaven?
A49796bring upon your selves eternal and unavoidable misery?
A49796did Christ fear Death?
A49796how careless are we of this work?
A49796how languishing our Hopes?
A49796how long will it be before, our Saviour will come to Reward us?
A49796how weak our Faith?
A49796or refuse to go forward?
A49796or seem foolishness to the Gentiles?
A49796or stumbling- block unto the Jew?
A49796or the Son of man, that thou makest account of him?
A49796or what shall we drink?
A49796or wherewith shall we be clothed?
A49796or, What is it to us?
A49796reject the tender of Salvation?
A49796was it not with them who had sinned, whose Carkasses fell in the Wilderness?]
A49796what more could the Heirs of Promise desire?
A49796why doth he exhort?
A49796will you despise his sweetest mercy?
A59853A whole Divinity made up of Three partial and incomplete Divinities?
A59853And are they not Three who have all the Perfections of the Divine Nature?
A59853And does not the Scripture, do not all Trinitarians, with the whole Catholick Church, own this?
A59853And if this had not been the belief of the Catholick Church, what meant their Zeal against this Heresy?
A59853And must this One Undivided Monad be in Three separate Localities, because it subsists in three distinct Persons?
A59853And what is the Cons ● quence of this?
A59853And what is there unintelligible in all this?
A59853And what is to be done now?
A59853And when the Arians objected against our Saviour''s saying, I am in the Father, and the Father in me; How can this be in that, and that in this?
A59853And why may not Number then belong to the Divinity, though it be not quantum, have no Predicamental, that is, Corporeal Quantity?
A59853And will any Trinitarian deny, That the Father is, the Son is, and the Holy Ghost is?
A59853And yet I dare appeal to any man of a free and unbiass''d Reason in this Cause, What is that Natural Notion we have of One God?
A59853Are Spirits united by Juxta- position of Parts, or Penetration of Dimensions?
A59853Are there then as many peculiar Manners and Modes of Subsistence, as there are, or ever have been, or ever shall be, distinct Persons in the World?
A59853But after all, Do these Fathers deny, that the Divine Nature is One Individual Nature?
A59853But at this rate, what Divinity do we leave for the Son, and the Holy Spirit?
A59853But ca n''t there be more than one of these Eternal, infinitely Wise, infinitely Good, and Omnipotent Natures?
A59853But do not all Catholick Christians own, That there is but One Infinite, Inseparable, Undivided Nature, in Three Persons?
A59853But does this make God True and Perfect Man?
A59853But how can this be, if Person and Essence, Suppositum and Nature be the same, as it is in God?
A59853But how can we learn God''s Love and Good Will to Mankind, from this Doctrine, if it be not true?
A59853But how will this agree with the Notion of One Divinity, or One Individual Divine Nature?
A59853But if God redeems us by a Man, however he be enabled by a Divine Power, Why is he said to give his Son for us?
A59853But in good earnest, does any sober Christian want an Answer to this Argument?
A59853But in what sense then can we say, That the Trinity is One God, or that Three Persons are One God?
A59853But is not this a kind of Sabellian Composition of a God?
A59853But now will any Catholick Christian say, that thus it is in the Ever Blessed Trinity?
A59853But still what is all this to the Unity of God?
A59853But suppose they could not distinguish them, does this prove that God is Incarnate in such men; or would it be a reason to worship such men as God?
A59853But the Question is, In what sense the Scripture teaches that there is but One God?
A59853But what becomes then of the Son, and Holy Ghost?
A59853But what is this Brightness, and what is this Glory?
A59853But what is this common Nature, which is seen by Reason?
A59853But what possible Sense can we make of this?
A59853But what room then does this leave for a Real Trinity of Persons, in this One, Simple, Uncompounded, Indivisible, Inseparable Nature?
A59853But who ever thought of causes of Distinction and Unity in an Eternal Nature, which has no cause?
A59853But, What it is that makes it One; or what the formal Conception of its Unity is?
A59853Can Eternal Truth, and Infinite Wisdom in any thing vary from it self, to make two Eternal Truths, and Infinite Wisdoms?
A59853Can any thing else give us so true and perfect a Character and Idea of each of them, as this does?
A59853Can the Specifick Notional Unity of Human Nature, make three men one man, as the One common Divine Nature makes Three Persons One God?
A59853Displicet cuiquam in Synodo Nicaena homousion esse susceptum?
A59853Do not all the Christian Creeds teach us to profess our Faith in One God the Father, from whom the Son and the Holy Spirit receive their Godhead?
A59853Do they mean, that there is but one Numerical Subsisting Nature common to all the Individuals?
A59853Does the Father Will any thing?
A59853Ergo inquis, das aliquam substantiam esse sermonem?
A59853For what do these Fathers mean by a common Nature?
A59853For what man knoweth the things of a man, but the spirit of man, which is in him?
A59853For will we say, That the Trinity, or Three Persons, are but One Person?
A59853Has God any Place; does he subsist in any thing but himself?
A59853He must then partake of the Father: But what is that, and whence is it?
A59853Here then we join issue with them, and desire them to shew us, what is impossible or contradictious in this Faith?
A59853How there can be Three Incommunicable Persons, and Suppositums, and but One Nature, and that communicable to more than One?
A59853Iam nunc quaeritur, quis quomodo utatur aliqua re& vocabulo ejus?
A59853If I am asked not only Who but What the Three in the Ever- blessed Trinity are?
A59853If the Unity of the Divine Nature be but a Notion, the Unity of God, the Unity of the Trinity, which is this One God, must be a meer Notion also?
A59853If you inquire, what Spirit, and what Matter is?
A59853In qua ● ffigie Dei?
A59853Is it any thing more, than that there is and can be but One Eternal Self- originated Being, who is the Principle or Cause of all other Beings?
A59853Is it because none is, or can be God, True and Perfect God, but he, who is God of himself, Self- originated and Unbegotten?
A59853Is it such a direct Contradiction to Sense and Reason, to say, That there is alius,& alius,& alius, in the Trinity, but not aliud?
A59853Is it the Son of God, that Eternal Word, which was in the beginning, was with God, and was God?
A59853Is not the Son God?
A59853Is not the Unity of God the fundamental Article of Natural Religion?
A59853Is there any thing else which is common to them, but the Name and Nature of God?
A59853Is this Extraordinary Power a Divine Subsisting Person, in the true and proper Notion of a Person?
A59853Is this Extraordinary Power so united to Human Nature, as to become Man?
A59853Let me then ask this plain Question: When Five hundred Men hear the same Man speak, do they all hear one and the same Voice, or Five hundred Voices?
A59853Let our Socinian Adversaries tell us, what there is absurd, impossible, or contradictious in this Faith?
A59853Non haben ● o autem filium cum ipse sum flius, quem ● do pater ero?
A59853Now if this be true, what Apology can be made for them?
A59853Now what is the meaning of this?
A59853Now will any man say, That the One Divinity, or One Divine Nature, and One God, is a meer Notion?
A59853Now, says he, in what Image of God, was he?
A59853Or how can the Father, who is greater, be at all in the Son, who is less?
A59853Or how much we must believe of them?
A59853Or what wonder is it, that the Son should be in the Father, when it is written of us all, That in him we live, and move, and have our being?
A59853Prolatus est Sermo Dei an non?
A59853Quid agis Lot sancte?
A59853Quid est enim Filius de eo quod Pater est?
A59853So far he is in the right; but what is this different way?
A59853That a Perfect, Living, Subsisting Image, should not be perfectly the same with its Prototype, from whom it receives its Being and Nature?
A59853That the One Common Divinity is One and Common, only as One Common Humanity is, that is, that it is perfectly the same in all?
A59853The Question then is, Whether we must not believe the Doctrines of the Trinity and Incarnation?
A59853The short Question is this; Whether a True, Proper, Divine Person was Incarnate, in the Incarnation of Christ?
A59853Then, says he, he must be the Son of God by participation; what is it then he partakes of?
A59853These are two very different Questions, and of a very different consideration, What God is?
A59853This sounds well; but why does he not speak out, and tell us what this Form of God is?
A59853Three in One Substance, and thrice Once Substance?
A59853Thus what is the Unity of Energy and Operation, but the same Conscious Will and Power acting distinctly, but inseparably in Three?
A59853Vacua& inanis res est sermo De ●, qui filius dictus est, qui ipse Deus cogneminatus est?
A59853Was he a Human Person; or the Person of the Son of God appearing in Human Nature?
A59853Well, But is not the Father then, in his own Person, True and Perfect God, and the Son True and Perfect God, and the Holy Ghost True and Perfect God?
A59853Well, but what is this Essence of a Mind, and this Unity of Essence, which makes a Mind One?
A59853Well: What is necessary to be believed concerning the Trinity?
A59853Well; but are there not Individual Men then, as well as a Common Nature?
A59853What difference between Three Substances, and tria supposita?
A59853What is it then that subsists by it self?
A59853What then was Christ''s Human Nature?
A59853What then was wanting to make us Human Nature a Human Person?
A59853When we profess to believe that there are Three in the Unity of the Godhead the next question is, What Three they are?
A59853Whether the True Divine Nature subsisting in him, a True Divine Person?
A59853Will they venture to say, That it is absurd or contradictious, that God should have a Son?
A59853Would not Human Nature be as perfectly the same in Three Persons or Subsistences, as the Idea of Human Nature is one and the same in Three Minds?
A59853Would they have taught, That the Divinity may be numbred, and yet is without Number?
A59853and Who this God is?
A59853and how then is this One Individual Nature?
A59853and the Spirit God?
A59853but one Universal Human Nature in all the particular men in the World?
A59853but, Whether the Son and Holy Ghost were truly and really distinct Persons from the Father, as the Catholick Church always believed?
A59853if God have no Eternal Son, and therefore did not give his Eternal Son to become Man, and to suffer and dye for us?
A59853or, How many partial Conceptions are united in One Idea?
A59853that is, Have not each of these Divine Persons all the Divine Perfections included in the Notion and Idea of God?
A59853thought I; How is this applicable to the Unity of God?
A59853ut inanis solida,& vacuus plena,& incorporalis corporalia operatus sit?
A59853whether he be Consubstantial with the Father, or have only a Nature like the Fathers, but not the same?
A59853whether he be true perfect God, in opposition to the most perfect created Nature, or be only a made and Creature- God?
A59853whether there were any time, the least conceivable moment before the Son was?
A59809( How comes this guilt to be finite now?
A59809Agreeably to St. Chrysostoms account of the words, as they are translated also by our Author, What is that Loaf?
A59809And a little before: Are we then freed from this Obedience?
A59809And can the grace of God be resisted?
A59809And how is it possible, they should get the Robes of Christs Righteousness, till they are married to him?
A59809And is not Pardon as properly opposed to Condemnation, as Absolution is?
A59809And is not that then the original signification of the Name?
A59809And may he not then require the intervention of a Sacrifice, and of a very meritorious one too, to purchase and seal his Pardon to Sincers?
A59809And that those glorious Discoveries, which God hath made of these Perfections in Christ, are but a metaphorical Brightness of this Glory?
A59809And what our Church attributes to this Faith in the Work of Justification?
A59809And where is the Sanction of it?
A59809And who gave it this Sanction?
A59809And will he save and reward those who do obey for their obedience?
A59809As for instance, he charges my Notion of Union to Christ with disserving holiness; Why, what is my Notion of Union?
A59809But Baptism makes us complete members of the Church only under the notion of Catholick visible; How comes this to pass now?
A59809But I would fain know what he means by neglecting or despising the Grace of God, is it to resist the grace of God, and to make it ineffectual?
A59809But does he indeed speak as he means?
A59809But does not this Imputation make it ours?
A59809But how does this follow?
A59809But how is it said then, Srait is the gate, and narrow is the way that leadeth unto life?
A59809But pray whom or what do I scorn?
A59809But pray why do they think so?
A59809But pray why so?
A59809But pray, who taught him to oppose the Light of Nature to the Gospel of Christ?
A59809But suppose that we are so charitable as to hope that God may receive them, yet how does this make them members of the Catholick visible Church?
A59809But the Doctor proceeds, But may we not, notwithstanding this Command, be justified and saved without this Holiness?
A59809But was not Christ personally righteous with this Righteousness?
A59809But what is this Socinian Notion of Justification?
A59809But what will Mr. Ferguson say, if Mr. Calvin gives the very same account of the words, which I do?
A59809But who told Mr. Ferguson that Christ is not the immediate Political Head of his Church, and that therefore there must be a Vicarious Head?
A59809But why so much haste of declaring?
A59809But why so pray?
A59809Can it be inherent in him, and he not righteous by it?
A59809Can it fail of its Effect?
A59809Could he with any Confidence then cry out of Persecution, when he himself hath sounded the Alarm to it?
A59809Did I ever affirm, that the Death of Christ did only ratifie and confirm the Covenant?
A59809Did he not frequently interpose between God and the People, and by his intercessions divert his anger from them?
A59809Did he so fulfil Righteousness for us, that he himself had no interest in it?
A59809Do I make any spiteful Reflections upon mens Persons?
A59809Do I not every where assert that Christs Death did procure and purchase, as well as seal the Covenant of Grace?
A59809Do I tell merry Tales of them?
A59809Do I transprose them, or dress them up in a fools Coat to be laught at?
A59809Do they believe the Church of England to be infallible?
A59809Do they think it a sufficient proof of the Truth of any Doctrine, that it is the Doctrine of the Church of England?
A59809Does it not as much belong to a supreme and unaccountable Judge to pardon, as to absolve?
A59809Doth this Election and Redemption suppose holiness in us?
A59809First, What is meant by Faith in the Merits of Christ?
A59809For did I ever assert, that an External Union to the visible Church did complete and perfect our Union to Christ?
A59809For what reason then shall we serve God?
A59809Hast thou been a Blasphemer?
A59809Hast thou been a Murderer, an Adulterer, a Thief, a Liar, a Drunkard?
A59809Have you a mind to teach People such Antichristian Pride, as to go about to make themselves fit for Christ, before they will close with him?
A59809He did lay sins on him; When did he lay them?
A59809How come they to be translated again from Christ, and laid upon this Person?
A59809How does he prove this?
A59809How then are they obnoxious to the Curse of the Law?
A59809How then can we answer the demands of the Law with it?
A59809If there be sinfulness in them, where then is their Peace?
A59809If they attribute so much to the Judgment and Authority of our Church, is it not as good in one case, as it is in another?
A59809In what sense then does our Church reject good Works, and attribute our Justification to Faith alone?
A59809Is any thing the less ours, because it is not originally ours, but so by Gift?
A59809Is it that we should kill them, stifle the Creature, that is formed in us in the Womb?
A59809Is not the Promise of Pardon purchas''d and sealed with the Blood of Christ, absolutely necessary to encourage men to be good?
A59809Is there no difference between Works which are imperfectly good, and Works which have no goodness in them?
A59809Is there no difference then between an imputed, and an inherent and personal Righteousness?
A59809Is this a needless enquiry?
A59809Is this the way to cure the world of Atheism?
A59809May it not confer a right, and lay an obligation to Communion with a particular Church, when we come where it is?
A59809May we not imitate that which we can not equal?
A59809Methinks he should consider, whose property it is so much to wonder: But what is the reason of this wonder?
A59809Mr. Shephard begins thus, In what hast thou gone beyond them that think they are rich, and want nothing, who yet are poor, and miserable, and naked?
A59809Must the Conscience be set free in matters of External Order and Government, but tied up in Doctrines and Opinions?
A59809Must we make our selves beautiful before we are married to Christ, or receive all our beauty from him?
A59809Must we reform our Lives, and lay aside our Opposition to God, and return to our Duty and Allegeance?
A59809Nay, is not this an Argument that Baptism admits them into the Church, because such persons only are subject to the Censures of it?
A59809Nay, the brightness of the Glory of God, and the Image of an infinite Spirit, which hath no shape?
A59809No, that he rejected before; What then?
A59809Or is it without any regard to it?
A59809Or must they be false, or wholly rejected, because they are not a true Medium of knowledge in that sense, wherein the Gospel of Christ is?
A59809Or should they teach men to trust wholly in the righteousness of Christ, without any righteousness of their own?
A59809Or that it is Fruitful, or Effective of good things unto the Persons Beloved?
A59809Or that it is Unchangeable?
A59809Or what occasion had I to oppose it in this place?
A59809Say you so Sir?
A59809Should they cry down holiness, and preach up debauchery?
A59809That he, who owns the Gospel of Christ as the only true Medium of knowledge, must be supposed to reject the Light of Nature?
A59809That the Apostle rejects all Works, though they are separated from the notion of Merit?
A59809That they do not differ in their Natures, Acts, and Effects?
A59809That we should give him to the old man to be devoured?
A59809That whatever he did as a man, he did as a Mediator?
A59809The Righteousness of Christ imputed to us makes us righteous as Christ is, and what need is there then of any Righteousness of our own?
A59809There St. Paul enquires by what means our Father Abraham was justified before God?
A59809These are broken Cisterns, and what Peace is there in them?
A59809Thus Christ is called Life, and can any one be an active Creature before there be life breathed into him?
A59809To prove the oneness and identity, which intervenes between Christ, and single Believers?
A59809To what end hath God given us new hearts, and new natures?
A59809To which the Doctor answers, That we are not so to die for any one, as Christ died for us: But what of that?
A59809We are thereby made the righteousness of God in him; if we be righteousness, where is our sinfulness to be charged upon us?
A59809Well, Is there an Essential Unity then here meant betwixt Christ and Believers?
A59809Were there any men who taught the People that Holiness would save them without the Merits of Christ?
A59809What account will he now give of Renouncing the Communion of this Church?
A59809What are those who partake of it?
A59809What has he to object against this?
A59809What is our finite guilt before it?
A59809What subtilty is required in Children to understand these deep Points, and to comprehend the subtil and artificial Schemes of Orthodoxy?
A59809What?
A59809Where is this Law?
A59809Whether Good Works may be said to be necessary to Justification or Salvation?
A59809Who can say I have washed my hands?
A59809Why could not he by all, understand all men of any knowledge and skill in the use of words, which some, and a great many, have not?
A59809Why do they renounce Communion with us?
A59809Why does he not correct the whole Gospel, the language of which is, He that continueth to the end shall be saved?
A59809Why does not our Author correct our Saviour, for telling those new Converts, If ye continue in my words, then shall ye be my Disciples indeed?
A59809Why then I have contradicted the Doctrine to which I have subscribed; if I have done so, it is very ill done of me, but what then?
A59809Why then do they reject any of the Articles of our Church?
A59809Why then this is a sufficient Answer to my Book: But I pray why so?
A59809Why then, to place Justification in pardon of sin, is to make it not a proper but metaphorical Justification; and what then?
A59809Will nothing satisfie the Law but perfect and unsinning Obedience?
A59809Will the Father Elect, and the Son Redeem none but those who are holy, and reject and reprobate all others?
A59809Would not our Author then change his Note, and repent of such Intimations as these?
A59809Yes, for this is not a Gospel- Holiness, which is wholly owing to the Divine Grace: But does the efficient cause then constitute the nature of things?
A59809Yes; But how far?
A59809or that the Goodness of God confers an antecedent title on Sinners to Grace and Pardon?
A59809will he damn those, who do not obey, for their disobedience?
A62735?
A62735Adam why Created out of Paradise, and after brought in?
A62735Alioqui quid erat opus, soris videre carnem,& carnis audire sermones, si intus ● Spriritu su rint instructi perfectè de omnibus?
A62735And had not Abraham reason to be glad?
A62735And had not Christ suffered, and so entred into Glory, how could he have obtained the Kingdom promised of his Father?
A62735And if Socinus doth not ground his own Hypothesis upon Scripture, wherefore doth he call for Scripture, Scripture?
A62735And if so, why did he now?
A62735And if you ask me, what could they do?
A62735And less reason to be given why or how it should be first devised?
A62735And was not Abraham taught as much as this,( do you think?)
A62735And was not this the Question put to Iohn the Baptist, Art thou that Prophet, or do we expect another?
A62735And was that possible without hope?
A62735And what hath he deserved of the truth, that we( that revere the Scripture indeed) should defer so much authority to him?
A62735And when he was come, who should be enquired of but the Pharisees whether he was indeed the Christ, or no?
A62735And whereas she had this heavy sentence from the Lord?
A62735And who was ever set up for an Idol, but the worst of men?
A62735And why must the Law be needs ordained in the hand of such an one?
A62735And, said not God unto Iacob, Go up to Bethel, and dwell there, and make there an Altar unto God?
A62735Annon fatis est, D ● ● n c ● n ● la regere perpetu ●, ac g ● b ● ● nare, n ● ● ● pso plan ● nelente quidquam fieri posse?
A62735BUT here the Objectors may close again, and say, Is there( then) no priviledge or no advantage by the Gospel?
A62735But against this that passage seems to make, that when God demanded of Cain, Where is Abel thy Brother?
A62735But from which of the first reasons( however over- ruled) should it proceed?
A62735But how a Bridle?
A62735But how should these know the difference of their acceptations?
A62735But if ten Tribes give eleven hundred thousand, what shall two Tribes give at the same proportion?
A62735But if the Masters were indifferently such( as I have described) what think you were the Men?
A62735But if they did this to acknowledge the right of the Lord of life and death only, why did they take his right from him?
A62735But let us hear what they say now to this instance of Cain and Abel?
A62735But now She puts Hagar to him, as if it were on purpose to restrain his choice of any other: What shall He do?
A62735But what have we to say at last, that all the Sons of Iacob( his Concubines and all) should be taken in, and never an one rejected?
A62735But what saith the Scripture?
A62735But what shall they dig, or cut withal?
A62735But what should they do at last?
A62735But what though?
A62735But whither must he go?
A62735But why Ashes?
A62735But why?
A62735But, first, What kind of arguing is this?
A62735Certainly, to rise: but if so, must it not be by a right repentance?
A62735Could he have any private Altar?
A62735Could the Son of man then( any more than at his second Coming) find faith upon the Earth?
A62735Could they bring enough?
A62735Cui ● nim usui, obsecro, is ● a praenotio esset?
A62735Did ever Ishmael or Esau play such pranks as some of these?
A62735Did he think it unlawful to take a Concubine?
A62735Dix illud inter homines eruditissimos disceptalum est, quid de summo salutis auspice speraverit olim, credidertive antiquior illa Hebraeorum Natio?
A62735Do we not all believe the Gospel, not knowing how much may be contained in it?
A62735Do we not engage ourselves in Baptism to obey, not knowing what shall be required of us?
A62735Do we not see that he alledgeth Scripture only to baulk us, and admitteth it not to inform himself?
A62735Does not many a Murtherer escape by flying amongst men, and hiding himself in the Crowd?
A62735Doth God abhor incest and adultery, and yet suffer the choicest Blessings of all to descend to their Issue?
A62735For can not God be known but by faith?
A62735For if Abel sacrificed in obedience to some Law of God, what shall we judge of Cain?
A62735For if had been otherwise, what should David have done, when he was convicted by the Prophet of his two great sins, of murder and adultery?
A62735For may not they say, Why do not you hold the Lords Day to be jure Divino?
A62735For must such a mixture be?
A62735For the first of these, Quis unquam negavit?
A62735For what is there in water now, more than in fire before?
A62735For what say others of his Followers?
A62735For who ever thought, that a thing not repugnant must needs be, or be most likely, at the least?
A62735For who should they give them to besides?
A62735For who will dare to disobey the nod of a Prince( if he may understand it right) without the pain of displeasure, or other penalties?
A62735For why?
A62735From Adam''s?
A62735God caused the Covenant of Works to be shut in a Chest under the Mercy- seat, and why?
A62735Has S t Paul magnified his own ministry, and this ministration all in vain?
A62735Having therefore no Lands, what should they do with Seed?
A62735He replyed, I know not: Am I my Brothers Keeper?
A62735He was a Reprobate; From Abel, Noah and Abraham, according to such respective enlightnings as they had?
A62735How a Seal, and of what Covenant?
A62735How many instances might be given to expose such a supposition to laughter?
A62735How the difference stood or appeared in respect of what they offered, and how they were accepted?
A62735How then?
A62735How was he concerned in it?
A62735If it be asked again, Why was Sem chosen rather than Ham and Iaphet?
A62735If it be asked, Why Abel was accepted, and Cain not?
A62735If it be further questioned, What private Religion Ioseph could have unto himself, or what exercise or practice of it, in the house of Pharaoh?
A62735If it had been righteous Abel, the younger Brother, whom Cain hated, would not Cain have disdained to take example from him?
A62735If it had been wicked Cain, would God have spoken so indifferently to him?
A62735If there be a particular Election of persons, conditionally only; then, Whether Election hangeth in suspense?
A62735If they had known him generally, durst the rest of them have crucified the Lord of life and glory?
A62735If they were not according to the Spirit of Christ, how could we be sanctified or comforted by the Scriptures of the Old Testament?
A62735If thou do well, shalt thou not be accepted?
A62735If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted?
A62735If to any Priesthood, after the disappearing of Melchisedeck, where was the like o ● der?
A62735If you ask, Why, where should he have had another?
A62735In all which, if there were not a Syllable of Christ, how could we use the fame Forms and Phrases still?
A62735Is He glad of the occasion for the further satisfying of his flesh?
A62735Is it more reasonable that men should prescribe a modus of his own worship unto God, or he to men?
A62735Is it not for the same reason that we hold Infant- Baptism to be nothing so?
A62735Is not this argumentum ad hominem, if after this he affirm( as his Followers do) that Sacrifices were of humane excogitation only?
A62735Is not this to appeal always to himself?
A62735Let us go over unto the Garison of these uncircumcised Philistins, said Ionathan: Who is this uncircumcised Philistine?
A62735Must not he, as well as his Grandfather Abraham, leave it all behind him, at the next remove?
A62735Now although it be said, that the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelled then in the Land; yet Abram said unto Lot, Is not the whole Land before thee?
A62735Now if any one ask here, Why, what choice had he or the other Brothers?
A62735Or did he spare all his Flock to be immortal, while Man alone was subject to mortality?
A62735Or do you think it proper that God himself should second a project of the wicked Cain, or the decayed Adam?
A62735Or doth he do it the better to please his Wife, even as Adam pleased Eve, and fell by it?
A62735Or how is it that David and Christ should come to descend from this Pharez, rather than from Shelah?
A62735Or how the Egyptians could bear their Sacrifices better than their Trade or Diet?
A62735Or how was Abel''s Sacrifice of more value than Cain''s?
A62735Or indeed, a thousand Head of Sheep or Cattel of any great worth, if their Flesh were not?
A62735Or of the Bread and Wine that was used at the Passover, to frame his own Supper by it, according to their use?
A62735Or should they rather strive and endeavour to rise again?
A62735Or such a Seed proceed from the Bowels of a Canaanitish Woman, as shall be proper to destroy the Canaanites?
A62735Or such a faith without a clear evidence to support it?
A62735Or such an hope, without a ground of faith?
A62735Or what might they have to divide amongst them when they came home?
A62735Or what need had Abel to bring such Sacrifices as these but once a year, the profits whereof arose daily?
A62735Or who can shew the institution before the practice?
A62735Or who ever blamed Abraham for his taking of Hagar or Keturah for his Concubines?
A62735Or who ever questioned but that those were saved by some faith or other equivalent unto ours?
A62735Or, That men were never at all justified by their Offering of Sacrifice in Faith?
A62735Or, could he have any Closets adorned with the Reliques of Noah, Sem, Eber, Abraham,& c or any other holy things?
A62735Or, if he had, any one to serve at that Altar, or to worship at it, besides himself?
A62735Or, in sine, is not he himself also touched with a little spice of unbelief, in his obtemperance unto Sarai, as well as she?
A62735Our first Parents Created in perfection, yet never offered to couple in their innocency, though they had such a command, with a blessing; and why?
A62735Quare voláerunt videre,& audire?
A62735Said not God unto Iacob at his first descent, I will go down with thee into Egypt, and I will also surely bring thee up again?
A62735Secondly, But why( then) did he send his ten Sons only, with their ten Asses, to buy Corn for them all?
A62735Secondly, Why the Sons of Keturah afterwards?
A62735Should they rest in despair, and in dejection?
A62735Should we think it to be too hard for him, or that he had not time enough in the nine hundred and thirty years, that he lived, to accomplish it?
A62735That they import no more but that men should hate Serpents, and Serpents men; and that they should lye in wait for one another?
A62735The Prophet said, I beseech thee, O Lord, for the Lord''s sake; The Question is, For what Lord''s sake?
A62735Thirdly, Why the Servants born in the house, or bought with money, who were all Aliens from the Seed of Abraham?
A62735To this was added the great favour of Almighty God( for when did he ever do so by any other mortal man?)
A62735Under some of which Heads it will fall in to be considered how Circumcision was a Sign, and of what?
A62735Was Circumcision ancienter than He?
A62735Was not Abraham expresly commanded to offer up his Son Isaac, and did not God provide him of a Ram in the stead of his Son?
A62735Was not therefore the Regiment of the Church of the Old Testament under God the Father?
A62735Was that the proper way to acknowledge it?
A62735What made Abram so continent hitherto, and so constant to his barren Wife Sarai?
A62735What private Religion he might have; What godly people near him?
A62735What think you of Murder before Noah?
A62735What was his speech to Ionah?
A62735Wherefore then serveth the Law?
A62735Whether Cain and Abel offered apart, or in one place?
A62735Which of the contradictions of these rational Querists shall we embrace, since they can not all hold together, nor yet agree one with another?
A62735Whither should they go?
A62735Who was this Mediator then?
A62735Who will venture to keep his place, if a General point with his Staff or Finger, directing any motion?
A62735Whom did the other Brothers marry?
A62735Why, also, they coveted Children after their fall?
A62735Why, wherein was the difference?
A62735Will I eat the flesh of Bulls, or drink the blood of Goats?
A62735Will they therefore wholely deny any institution, by way of implicit precept?
A62735Will ye hear it from his own mouth?
A62735[ Was it given to the prejudice of the Grace of Christ?]
A62735and whether it might be imposed?
A62735and why is thy countonance fallen?
A62735of burning for Adultery afterwards?
A62735or by the explicit faith of Christ, exhibited in the New Testament, more than there was before?
A62735or in Bread and Wine now, more than in the Cakes and Libaments, with the flesh and bloud of Sheep, before?
A62735or raise example in some one case, or two, as high as a precept; and in many more, of great importance, study to dwindle it to nothing?
A62735or what congruity in the sense?
A62735or what did he do?
A62735to a place he knew not?
A62735to men that know not him?
A62735when God commanded him to offer up his only Son Isaac, and in sparing Isaac, provided Abraham of another Sacrifice?
A62735— — Quis nescit qualia demens Aegyptus portentae colit?
A62735● If to Sacrifices, what should he add?
A609411688?
A609419. representing Him to their thoughts, as an Old Man sitting in Heaven?
A60941A Rational, a Sensitive, and a Vegetative?
A60941Again, is Pardon of Sin an Essential Act of God''s Iustice?
A60941Agreeably to all which, Seneca in the Preface to his Natural Questions, putting the Question, Quid est Deus?
A60941And I would fain know, Whether this Man of Paradox, will affirm, That God Loves every Thing which he has a true Knowledge and Estimation of?
A60941And St. Ierom in his Epistle to Damasus, Quis ore sacrilego Tres substantias praedicabit?
A60941And after this tell us, That this gives no Account at all, how Three distinct Persons come to have but one Will and Energy, Power and Operation?
A60941And are not these passages an Account of his Dealings and Operations in the Government of the World?
A60941And besides, if a Mind, or Spirit, were not a Substance, what could it be else?
A60941And can so Learned, and every way Excellent a Clergy bear this?
A60941And does not this look mightily agreeable to all the Principles of Reason and Divinity?
A60941And here if it should be asked, How they differ, and whether it be by any real distinction between the Persons?
A60941And how can a Spirit incur directly into that?
A60941And how does he acquit himself as to this?
A60941And how does he prove this 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 to be Mutual Consciousness?
A60941And if True, whether one Truth can any more obscure, perplex, and confound, than it can contradict another Truth?
A60941And if so, must we not needs find a great difficulty in knowing it?
A60941And if they derived this Perfection from their Souls, must not their Souls have been eminently perfect themselves, which rendred them so?
A60941And in the next, assert also, that this Unity of Nature is proved by Unity of Energy and Operation?
A60941And is not this close and profound reasoning?
A60941And now can this Man pretend to speak these Things in the Person of one who thus Abhors, Abominates, and Detests them?
A60941And now, is not this( think we) a most proper and fit posture for such as view and look into things very plain, obvious, and intelligible?
A60941And now, what Relation does or can such an Act of Self- Consciousness imply in it?
A60941And now, what does all this prove?
A60941And that therefore the Laws will be very severe upon such as invade his Property?
A60941And that we can have no Notion of Substance, but what implies in it something gross and material?
A60941And then lastly for the School- men, who could have expected fewer of them also, than Ten, or Twenty?
A60941And then, Where could be the Freedom of this Grace?
A60941And to throw his Scurrility at High, and Low, at all About him, Above him, and Below him( if there be any such) at this insufferable rate?
A60941And what of all this, I pray?
A60941And what sence can there be in affirming, or saying, That they are but one distinct Infinite Mind?
A60941And who denies this?
A60941And will this bold over bearing Man, after all this, Claim their meaning to be the same with his?
A60941And, What is the distinction between Essence, and Personality, and Subsistence?
A60941And, are they so?
A60941And, since Things were so in former Days, what hinders, but that in these latter Days likewise, the same, if not prevented, may happen again?
A60941And, what is yet more, does it not more properly belong to any other of the Divine Acts, than to an Act of Knowledge?
A60941Any more than he who says, That the Father is God, and the Son God, affirms them to be Two distinct Gods?
A60941Are we able to comprehend them perfectly, and to the utmost of what, and how they are?
A60941As, First, Whether the Soul, or Mind of Man be one Person, and the Man himself Another?
A60941Basil, Theodoret, Epiphanius, with several more, all alledged in his behalf?
A60941Between That, without which a Thing can not be, and that, which that Thing properly is?
A60941But I demand of him, does Athanasius here speak of them as of Three Persons, or no?
A60941But also, and much more properly to the Question, that enquires, What kind of Nature, or Essence such a thing is of?
A60941But did his Adversary, Dr. Owen, ever speak so?
A60941But does this inferr, That He is therefore a distinct Intelligent Mind, or Being from the Father?
A60941But how then comes there to be only Three?
A60941But may not others therefore, who are wiser, conceive more worthily of him, without laying aside that Scripture- expression?
A60941But now if any one should ask me, What this Generation and Filiation, this Spiration and Procession are?
A60941But perhaps it will be here said, if these Modes are not so many meer Nothings, or Entia Rationis, what order, or rank shall they be placed in?
A60941But suppose, these unlucky Wits had used some new Terms, have they taught any new Faith about the Trinity in Unity, which the Church did not teach?
A60941But then, I ask him, are not the Divine Operations so too?
A60941But what is this to Spiritual Substances?
A60941But what is this to our Author''s Purpose?
A60941But what must we call them then?
A60941But what shall we say to the Charge of Heresie,( in which St. Austin would have no Person, who is so charged to be silent?)
A60941But where then may we find it?
A60941But why do I speak of reconciling Contradictions?
A60941But why do I speak of the Greek and Latine Fathers?
A60941But why must the School- men bear all the blame of this?
A60941But will this Man conclude, That where there is no Absurdity, there is therefore no Difficulty neither?
A60941But you will say, From whom?
A60941But you will say: Does not this infer Four Persons in the Godhead?
A60941But, why, I pray?
A60941Could you not as well have said, Let us change Saddles?
A60941Do all, or any of the fore- mentioned Terms signifie Mutual Consciousness?
A60941Do these Words speak of these Persons as distinguished, or do they not?
A60941Does he,( I would fain know) in this speak his Judgment, or his Breeding?
A60941For What Reason can be given of this?
A60941For does he, or can he think to Live and Converse in the World upon these Terms?
A60941For does not Unity of Nature, in these three distinct Persons prove this?
A60941For has he lost his daring Polemick Pen?
A60941For if we describe his Nature by any particular Attribute, or Perfection, and be thereupon asked, What that is?
A60941For is it good arguing to conclude, That because a thing is actually thus or thus, it can not possibly be otherwise?
A60941For must it be Nonsence not to own Contradictions?
A60941For otherwise how come so many Socinian Pieces wrote against him to lie so long unanswered?
A60941For the Nature and Condition of the Thing will not have it so, nor have the Ablest Divines ever thought it so,( for where then were the Mystery?)
A60941For this is an Answer, not only to that Question, that enquires, Whether there be such a thing, or Essence, or no?
A60941For will any one say, That the Soul can either Create or Generate the Person, or( to speak more plainly) the Man who is the Person?
A60941For will he say, That the School- men do not grant such Modes to be in God, after he himself has done his poor utmost to confute them for holding it?
A60941For will he, in the first place, assert, in the Three Divine Persons a Numerical Unity of Nature?
A60941For will this Author put out the Eyes of his Reader?
A60941For, Why not a Substance without Beginning, as well as Truth, or Wisdom, or Goodness, without a Beginning?
A60941From Servetus, or Socinus,( from whom also it was borrowed) than from a Son of the Church, in a Book published by Licence and Authority?
A60941How can Three distinct Persons have but One Numerical Substance?
A60941How can three distinct Persons have but one Numerical Substance?
A60941I Answer, What if we can not?
A60941I tell him, This is not the Point in Controversie, Whether we can imagine it, or no?
A60941If it be here now asked: Whether Subsistence, or Suppositality added to bare Nature, does not make a Composition?
A60941In the mean time, why should any one who had reàd but a Page in Calvin, quote him for such a word as could not possibly drop from so Learned a Pen?
A60941In what the Father''s placed the Unity in Trinity?
A60941In which case, who must be the Person drawing them?
A60941Indeed no more than that Reply of Hazael, Is thy Servant a Dog?
A60941Is a Beast an Intelligent Substance?
A60941Is it because this Author has got the Monopoly of them, and engrossed them all to himself?
A60941Is there so much as one Tittle in the Fathers expressing, or necessarily implying, that it is so?
A60941Is this( says he) Language becoming a Son of the Church of England?
A60941It is so far from being a wonder to meet with any Thing[ whose Nature] we do not understand,& c. But is this Sence, or Grammar?
A60941Master, What needs all these Words?
A60941Must nothing be applyed to God, but what shall let us into the full knowledge of all that is difficult and mysterious in the Divine Nature?
A60941Must we all take up in Scepticism, and acknowledge, that nothing is to be known?
A60941Nay, Where could be this Grace it self?
A60941Nay, on the contrary, does it not Exert it self in Infinite other Acts?
A60941Now all this is very true; but how will our Author bring it to his purpose?
A60941Now how shall we reconcile these blind Assertions, that so cruelly bu ● t and run their Heads against one another?
A60941Or an Act of Sight such a Circulation?
A60941Or can we think that the Fathers wrote Things without Words, as some do but too often write Words without Things?
A60941Or charge them as the necessary Consequences of his Doctrine, without proving, or by any formed Argument so much as offering to prove them so?
A60941Or did that Act consist in a Wise proportion of Rewards and Punishments, before there was any Act of the Creature to be Rewarded, or Punished?
A60941Or does any Man say, Reach me that Book,[ who lies there] or that Chair[ who stands there?]
A60941Or does he never reflect upon himself, nor consider, That though he does not, others assuredly will?
A60941Or does the Son''s Relation to the Father consist in his being Conscious to himself of this Relation?
A60941Or has he lost the use of his Hand?
A60941Or has he run himself out of Breath?
A60941Or must it be Heresie not to Subscribe to Tritheisme, as the best and most Orthodox Explication of the Article of the Trinity?
A60941Or that this 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 in the whole Latitude and Compass of it extends no further?
A60941Or the Language, they wrote in, too scanty to express their Speculations by?
A60941Or use the Expressions here uttered by this Author?
A60941Or what does it conclude for him?
A60941Or will he say, That our Saviour meant the same Thing with himself, but was not so happy in expressing it?
A60941Or, can a Beast be a Person, and yet not an Intelligent Substance, when he affirms, That they are Terms Reciprocal?
A60941Or, that Self- Consciousness is the proper ground, or Reason of their distinction?
A60941Ought it not more justly to have been expected from a Iew, or a Mahometan?
A60941Pray what hurt have they done?
A60941Quid enim insanius?
A60941Quod si tenemus, cur non& magnitudinis suae,& bonitatis,& aeternitatis,& omnipotentiae suae Generator sit?
A60941So that the Matter being in effect brought to this point, Whether He shall be too hard for the World, or the World for Him?
A60941So that we see here what our Author asserts; But may we rely upon it, and hold him to his Word?
A60941So that, that which removes one, must needs remove the other too?
A60941That God created the Heavens and the Earth, and that therefore the Three Divine Persons are and must be one, only by an Unity of Mutual Consciousness?
A60941That One infinite Spirit is Three distinct Infinite Spirits?
A60941That as Generation and Filiation make two, so Spiration and Procession should make two more?
A60941That, by which it is it self formally a Person, and that other, which by its Constituting it self a Person, is Constituted and caused by it?
A60941The Question before him was, Whether the Three Divine Persons were Three Gods?
A60941There is one Person of the Father, another of the Son, and another of the Holy Ghost?
A60941Was either the Thing it self( as I noted before) of such deep, or sublime Speculation, as not to be reached by them?
A60941Was it the School, the University, or Gravel- Lane, that taught him this Language?
A60941Well; and what then?
A60941What can the meaning of this be?
A60941What is God?
A60941What is Intellectual Love( says this Author) but the true Knowledge, or Estimation of Things?
A60941What is Iustice and Goodness but an equal Distribution of, or a true and wise Proportion of Rewards and Punishments?
A60941What is perfect Power, but perfect Truth and Wisdom which can do whatsoever it knows?
A60941What is the Distinction between Essence, and Personality, and Subsistence?
A60941What is the Substance and Nature of God?
A60941What then mean those Words of the Creed?
A60941What then will that old Principle of Nature, 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, serve for, but to tantalize and torment us?
A60941What( says our Author) is the Substance, or Nature of God?
A60941Whereupon I would again learn of him how many steps are necessary to explain Mutual- Conciousness?
A60941Whether it be so in Infinite?
A60941Whether or no Self- Consciousness be the Reason of Personality in Finite Persons?
A60941Whether the three Persons of the Blessed Trinity are not Mutually Conscious to one another of their Mutual In- existence in one another?
A60941Why does he let St. Austin escape, from whom the Master of the Sentences borrowed most of his Distinctions and Subtleties?
A60941Why, how then comes a Beast, in page 269. to be a Person?
A60941Why, in the first place we must search and enquire, whether it be so, or no?
A60941Why?
A60941all drawn forth in Rank and File, to have fought his Battels?
A60941and whether God revealed them for any other purpose than that he might be known and understood by them?
A60941or, whether there be one between the first and the second?
A60941the Words and Actions of Men, which they both Exist in, and Converse about?
A61548Am I bound to believe it or not?
A61548And are not all the main Articles of the Christian Faith comprehended under it?
A61548And doth not all this discover no good will to the Scriptures, at least, as they are received among us?
A61548And from whence comes it?
A61548And from whence comes such a Denomination?
A61548And how can those who hold three Persons be Sabellians?
A61548And how can three Persons be one Person, unless three incommunicable Properties may become one communicated Property to three Persons?
A61548And how can we but divide the Substance, which we find in three distinct divided Persons?
A61548And if there are three Persons which have the Divine Nature attributed to them; what must we do in this Case?
A61548And is not this an admirable Way to bring us to a certainty of Reason?
A61548And is not this great skill in these Matters, to make such a Parallel between three Persons in the Godhead, and Peter, Iames and Iohn?
A61548And is not this very good Authority among us?
A61548And is this all indeed, that is to be said for the being of Substance, that we accustom our selves to suppose a Substratum?
A61548And is this indeed the great Secret which this bold Man, as they call him, hath discover''d?
A61548And now let the World judge, how wisely they have interpreted both S. Iohn, and his Commentator Grotius?
A61548And now what Reason can there be, that any such late Copies should be prefer''d before those which were used by the Greek Fathers?
A61548And now what do these Men do?
A61548And so Heaven and Earth are called to bear Witness against obstinate Sinners: May men therefore be baptized in the name of God and his Creatures?
A61548And that he is the Word, and God of God, from Theophilus Antiochenus?
A61548And to make his Apostles set up the Worship of a Creature, when their design was to take away the Worship of all such, who by Nature are not Gods?
A61548And to what purpose then are they brought?
A61548And upon his bringing Erasmus to prove that it was not in S. Cyprian, S. Hilary, and S. Chrysostome, he cries out, Where is Sincerity?
A61548And what Answer do they give to this?
A61548And what Answer doth S. Ambrose give to this?
A61548And what answer do they give to this?
A61548And what certainty can we have that he hath not done it?
A61548And what defence have they since made for themselves?
A61548And what follows from hence, but that the relative Property is the Foundation of the Personality?
A61548And what follows?
A61548And what follows?
A61548And what greater argument can there be, that it was then the general sense of the Christian Church?
A61548And what is this, but to own two distinct Substances?
A61548And what must they think of our Saviour the mean time, who knew the Iews understood him quite otherwise, and would not undeceive them?
A61548And what saith he to this purpose?
A61548And what say our Vnitarians to it?
A61548And what say our Vnitarians to this?
A61548And what say our Vnitarians to this?
A61548And what then?
A61548And what then?
A61548And what then?
A61548And what then?
A61548And wherein is this different, from what all men of Understanding have said?
A61548And who are these Dominions and Powers?
A61548Are not then( without Trifling and Fooling) these Real Essences Mysteries to them?
A61548Are not these very good Christians the mean while?
A61548Are not three Substances and but one a Contradiction?
A61548Are they not three Gods?
A61548Are they resolved to set up Deism among us, and in order thereto, to undermine the authority of the New Testament?
A61548As of divine Authority?
A61548As though he allow''d more Gods than one in Number?
A61548As to the Essence?
A61548But Eusebius doth not use Hegesippus his words, but his own in that place; and withal, how doth it appear that Hegesippus himself was an Ebionite?
A61548But after all, why do we assert three Persons in the Godhead?
A61548But by no means, that the Person of the Father is nothing but the relative Property?
A61548But can any thing of this Nature be charged upon one, who hath not only written in Defence of it, but speaks of it with the highest Veneration?
A61548But can one whole entire indivisible Substance be actually divided into three Substances?
A61548But can these Men of Sense and Reason think, that the Point in Controversie ever was, whether in Numbers, One could be Three, or Three One?
A61548But can you have a full and evident Perception of a thing, so as to difference it from all others, when you grant it to be Incomprehensible?
A61548But comes it from a good hand?
A61548But did they mean three distinct Subsistences, or only one Subsistence sustaining the Names, or Appearances, or Manifestations of three Persons?
A61548But do these assert, that there is but one subsisting Person, and three only in Name?
A61548But doth any one imagine, that because Iohn Baptist did enter his Disciples by Baptism, therefore they must believe him to be God?
A61548But doth he not say, That he hath a Legitimate and proper Substance of his own begotten Nature from God, the Father?
A61548But doth it follow that they are guilty of Heresie?
A61548But he will Demonstrate something instead of it?
A61548But how I pray doth this appear?
A61548But how came the Preface to be curtail''d in the Ebionite Gospel?
A61548But how can I comprehend this Attribute of Eternity?
A61548But how can we but divide the Substance which we see in three distinct divided Persons?
A61548But how comes Christ to assume that to himself which belong''d to the Word?
A61548But how comes he to take no notice of this Difference of the Clermont Copy?
A61548But how comes the general Idea of Substance, to be framed in our Minds?
A61548But how do our simple Ideas help us out in this Matter?
A61548But how do they make out this gross Stupidity of theirs?
A61548But how doth he apply these things to the divine Nature?
A61548But how doth he make this out?
A61548But how doth it appear that we have any Power to comprehend what is infinite?
A61548But how doth it appear, that Beza''s Clermont Copy was the very same which Morinus had?
A61548But how doth it appear, that he brought in any new Doctrine?
A61548But how doth it appear, that the Word Mystery is always used in that Sense?
A61548But how doth that appear?
A61548But how doth the other Antagonist escape?
A61548But how far?
A61548But how if any one Person were left out?
A61548But how is it possible to understand this?
A61548But how is this clear''d by the other Party?
A61548But how then can there be but one individual Essence in all three?
A61548But how then comes it not to make a distinct Essence, as it makes distinct Persons, by being communicated?
A61548But how then?
A61548But how?
A61548But how?
A61548But how?
A61548But if he had so meant it, how could he have expressed it otherwise?
A61548But if he was for ever, he must be from himself, and what Notion, or Conception can we have in our Minds concerning it?
A61548But if that be not taken as an Evidence of his being the eternal Son of God, how doth this prove him above Angels?
A61548But if the Christian Interpreters were such Fools; what think they of the Deists, whom they seem to have a better opinion of, as to their Wisdom?
A61548But may not Christians have such doubts in their minds?
A61548But may not each Person have a distinct Essence belonging to him, as we see it is among Men?
A61548But may not the fame Essence be divided?
A61548But saith S. Augustin, The Caviller will ask, if there be Three, what Three are they?
A61548But saith he, Will it not hence follow, that as these are two Men, so the Father and Son in the Divine Essence must be two Gods?
A61548But the Question is whether the Fathers used it in that sense, so as to imply a difference of Individuals in the same common Essence?
A61548But they leave out what he saith, and put in what he doth not say; is not this interpreting like Wise men?
A61548But this is said to be a Contradiction; so it was in the other case and not allow''d then and why should it be otherwise in this?
A61548But this worthy Author produces other Reasons, which Sandius himself laughs at, and despises?
A61548But to what purpose?
A61548But were not the Iews to understand it in the Sense it was known among them?
A61548But what Bias was it, which made him write with that Strength and Iudgment against their Opinions?
A61548But what Reason doth he give for it?
A61548But what are these very strong and weighty Reasons?
A61548But what consequence do they draw from hence?
A61548But what do they say to the Old Paraphrases, whereon the main Weight as to this matter lies?
A61548But what is it which makes the Vnion indissoluble?
A61548But what is it?
A61548But what is this Distinction founded upon?
A61548But what is this to the first Christians of the Church of Ierusalem?
A61548But what is to know?
A61548But what reason do they give for it?
A61548But what reason do they give for such a forced and unusual Sense, besides the avoiding the difficulty of having the Name of God given here to Christ?
A61548But what saith Grotius himself?
A61548But what saith S. Augustin to this?
A61548But what say our Wise Interpreters to this?
A61548But what then do they think of these passages in his Conferences with the Iews?
A61548But when you have reckon''d them what is it you have been Counting?
A61548But whence or how?
A61548But where doth Grotius say any thing like this?
A61548But where doth S. Augustin give any such Account of it?
A61548But where else are these honest, conscientious Deists to be found?
A61548But where is this said?
A61548But wherein is it that Eusebius blames them?
A61548But wherein lies it?
A61548But wherein lies this Impossibility?
A61548But wherein then lies the difference in point of Reason?
A61548But who is to set these Bounds but themselves in all Acts of relative Worship, because they depend upon the intention of the Persons?
A61548But who made them subject to him?
A61548But who was this Arian Bishop, and these Campenses?
A61548But why do we call them Persons, when that Term is not found in Scripture, and is of a doubtful Sense?
A61548But why must they confound the Persons, if there be but one Essence?
A61548But will not this overthrow the distinction of Persons and run us into Sabellianism?
A61548But, if our Reason depend upon our clear and distinct Idea''s; how is this possible?
A61548By dividing the Substance?
A61548Can the communicating the divine Essence by the Father to the Son, be called a Name, or a Mode, or a Respect only?
A61548Can we be certain without any Foundation of Reason?
A61548Can we learn from them, the difference of Nature and Person?
A61548Can we suppose them Guilty of such stupidity to lose their Lives, for not giving Divine Honour to Creatures, and at the same time to do it themselves?
A61548Did God make the Earth and all the living Creatures in it, when he made Man Lord over them?
A61548Did ever N ● etus or Sabellius, or any of their Followers speak after this manner?
A61548Did he die to reform them, as well as Mankind?
A61548Did they all interpret the Scriptures like Fools, and not like Wise Men?
A61548Did they mean no more, but as any Good man is?
A61548Do not you comprehend that it is incomprehensible?
A61548Do the others who maintain a Trinity deny this?
A61548Do they hope ever to convince Men at this rate of wise interpreting?
A61548Do they suppose the divine Nature capable of such Division and Separation by Individuals, as human Nature is?
A61548Do they think there is no difference between an infinitely perfect Being, and such finite limited Creatures as Individuals among Men are?
A61548Doth Marcion hold this Trinity?
A61548Doth Origen say all the Iewish Christians there were such?
A61548Doth he not say, the Arian Bishop, and the Campenses put him upon it?
A61548Doth he own such a Community of Nature, and Distinction of Individuals there?
A61548Doth he say they borrowed the Form of Baptism from thence?
A61548Doth it therefore follow, that there are no Doctrines in the Gospel above the reach and comprehension of our Reason?
A61548Doth not S. Ambrose say, as Curcellaeus quotes him, That the Father and Son are not two Gods, because all men are said to be of one Substance?
A61548Doth not by whom all things were created in Heaven and Earth imply, that Heaven and Earth were created by him?
A61548Doth not this look like a design to furnish the Deists with such arguments as they could meet with against it?
A61548Doth this prove such a difference, as is among Individuals of the same kind among men?
A61548Doth this reach the Nature of the thing, or only the manner of our Conception?
A61548Ecce inquit tres dixisti, sed quid tres exprime?
A61548Especially, when they say, That S. Iohn doth not oppose them Why then are these Arguments produced against his Gospel?
A61548Filium quem dicitis, Deum dicitis?
A61548For I appeal to the common Sense of mankind, whether we can be said to Comprehend that, which we can have no adequate Idea of?
A61548For according to this Sense, how comes a divine Attribute to be called the Son of Man?
A61548For the question upon the Creed is, Whether the Substance can be divided?
A61548For unto which of the Angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee?
A61548For what is it makes the second Sun to be a true Sun, but having the same Real Essence with the first?
A61548For what is the old or first Creation, but the making the World, and creating all things in Heaven and Earth?
A61548For what reason?
A61548For, if he could have no Cause, what could we think of his being Eternal?
A61548For, they say, That he held, that as to this question, How many Gods?
A61548From what evidence?
A61548Grant he was so, yet how doth it appear that all the Iewish Christians were at that time Ebionites or Cerinthians?
A61548Had all men lost their Senses in Theodoret''s time?
A61548Had he no more skill in Arithmetick than to say there are Three and yet but One?
A61548Have the Brutes and Trinitarians learnt Arithmetick together?
A61548Have they any new Books of Scripture to judge by?
A61548Have we not now a very comfortable account of the Canon of the New Testament from these ancient Vnitarians?
A61548He answers, Why not, since we call Body and Soul by the Name of the Man?
A61548He granted that they were one Essence, one Nature, one Substance: but how?
A61548He grants to Praxeas, that Father, Son and Holy Ghost are one, but how?
A61548He pretends to Demonstrate; but what I pray?
A61548How are the Angels created by him and for him?
A61548How can that be said to be the Son of God begotten of the Father, without Division, before all Worlds, as he quotes it from Iustin Martyr?
A61548How can that be?
A61548How can the Substance be distinct, if it be the very same; and the Son subsist in that Substance of which he was begotten?
A61548How can these things consist?
A61548How can this be consistent with deducing our Certainty of Knowledge from clear and simple Ideas?
A61548How can this distinction be?
A61548How come the Mysteries of Faith to require more Knowledge than the Nature of Man is capable of?
A61548How could the Son of Man be said to ascend thither, where a divine Attribute was before?
A61548How could this be, if all the Christians were out of his reach, then being setled about Pella?
A61548How doth that appear?
A61548How doth that appear?
A61548How doth this appear to be very probable?
A61548How is it possible for Three to be but One?
A61548How is this possible, if a Person doth suppose some peculiar Property, which must distinguish him from all others?
A61548How so?
A61548How so?
A61548How then can our Vnitarians pretend, That the Ante- Nicene Fathers did not alledge the Form of Baptism to prove the Trinity?
A61548How then can we know, that of which we can have no adequate Idea?
A61548How then is it possible to understand S. Basil of more Gods than one in number?
A61548I allow he Reason to be very good, but the Question I ask is, whether this Argument be from the clear and distinct Idea or not?
A61548I desire to know, Whether the Adoration of such were Idolatry or not?
A61548If it be said to be the same Specifick Nature; then how comes that which is in it self capable of Division to make an indissoluble Vnion?
A61548If it be, is it the same individual Essence, or not?
A61548If it extends to all the other things, doth it exclude this, which is the first mention''d?
A61548If it were necessary to be believed, why is it not more plainly revealed?
A61548If only some parts of Matter have a power of Thinking, how comes so great a difference in the Properties of the same Matter?
A61548If the same individual Essence makes the inseparable Union, what is it, which makes the difference of individuals?
A61548If their arguments are mean and trifling and merely precarious, why are they not slighted and answered by such as pretend to be Christians?
A61548If they are false, why do they not answer them?
A61548If they are true, why do they not affirm them?
A61548If they do understand them, why do they say, They do not, nor can not?
A61548In the former Testimony, the authority of the Vulgar Latin was made use of: and why, is it rejected here?
A61548Interrogant enim nos aliquando Infideles,& dicunt, Patrem quem dicitis, Deum dicitis?
A61548Into the Father?
A61548Into the Holy Ghost?
A61548Into the Son?
A61548Is it like wise Men, to go upon such grounds as will justifie both Pagan and Popish Idolatry?
A61548Is it not rather exposing and ridiculing them?
A61548Is it not to have adequate Ideas of the things we know?
A61548Is it possible for Men that live in our Age to give such an account as this of the Growth of Deism and Atheism among us?
A61548Is it the Vnity of the Essence or not?
A61548Is it the attributing a general Name to them?
A61548Is not the like Equity to be shew ● d in another though different Explication?
A61548Is not this Subtle and deep Reasoning?
A61548Is not this a fine turn?
A61548Is not this a rare Specimen of Wise interpreting, and Fair dealing with so considerable a Person, and so well known, as Grotius?
A61548Is not this a rare way of fixing the Boundaries of Faith and Reason?
A61548Is not this a very strong and weighty Reason?
A61548Is not this doing great Honour to our Saviour?
A61548Is not this fair dealing with such a Man as S. Basil, to represent his Sense quite otherwise than it is?
A61548Is not this interpreting like wise Men indeed?
A61548Is that Custom grounded upon true Reason or not?
A61548Is the divine Essence but a mere Name, or a different respect only to Mankind?
A61548Is this Wise interpreting?
A61548Is this a sufficient reason or not?
A61548Is this by Abstracting and inlarging simple Ideas?
A61548Is this interpreting Scripture like Wise men, to deny Divine Worship to be given to our Saviour when the Scripture so plainly requires it?
A61548Is this interpreting Scripture like wise Men, to take advantage of all Omissions in Copies, when those which are entire ought to be preferr''d?
A61548Is this interpreting the Scriptures like wise Men?
A61548Is this right?
A61548Is this sufficient to charge such a Person with the Sabellian Heresy, which he utterly disowns?
A61548Is this to interpret Scripture like Wise men, to make our Saviour''s meaning to be expressly contrary to his Words?
A61548It is easie to guess whom these kind Words were intended for: And are not these very modest and civil Expressions?
A61548It''s very true; but how doth this prove that there is a God?
A61548Let the Case be now put as to the Trinity; do you believe the Doctrine of it, as of Divine Revelation?
A61548Must not this be a very learned Critick who could mention S. Ierom, as Translator of S. Matthews Gospel into Greek?
A61548Must we cast off the Vnity of the Divine Essence?
A61548Must we quit Christ''s being the Messias, because the Jews deny it?
A61548Must we reject those Scriptures which attribute Divinity to the Son and Holy Ghost, as well as to the Father?
A61548Must we renounce the Christian Doctrine to please the Jews and Mahometans?
A61548No, Are they not three Almighties?
A61548No, they may say, but ye who hold three Persons must think so: For what reason?
A61548Non tres omnipotentes?
A61548Now if Christ were taken up into Heaven, as Moses was into the Mount, why was it not made publick at that time?
A61548Now if both Parties mean what they say, where lies the difference?
A61548Now what Prolation can there be of a meer Attribute?
A61548Now what was this Doctrine of Noetus?
A61548Now what was this unheard of Doctrine of Noetus?
A61548Now wherein doth this differ from the present Hypothesis?
A61548Now, what is the Subject in this case?
A61548Now, what saith the Vnitarian to this, who pretended to Answer me?
A61548Number, saith he again, belongs to Quantity, and Quantity to Bodies, but what relation have these to God, but as he is the Maker of them?
A61548Nunc mihi Calumniator respondeat, quid ergo tres?
A61548Of mere Names or Cyphers, or of one God and two Creatures joyned in the same Form of words, as our Vnitarians understand it?
A61548Of mere Names or Energies?
A61548Of what?
A61548One God the Father, and one God the Son; how can this be, and yet not two Gods?
A61548Or Paulus Alciatus, who from a Unitarian turned Mahometan?
A61548Or as other Hereticks, three Principles or three Gods?
A61548Or doth our Reason give us true Notions of things, without these Idea''s?
A61548Or rather was Man said to create them, because he was made their Head?
A61548Or the suffering of Christ, because the Mahometans think it inconsistent with his Honour?
A61548Or were they all turned Ebionites then?
A61548Peter, and Iames, and Iohn, are all true and real Men; but what is it which makes them so?
A61548Quare hoc non est ita ibi?
A61548Quid sunt isti tres?
A61548Respondemus Deum Spiritum Sanctum quem dicitis, Deum dicitis?
A61548St. Augustin mentions it as such, when he saith, the Infidels sometimes ask us, what do you call the Father?
A61548That the Father and Son are divided from each other, as they were?
A61548The Israelites were baptized unto Moses; but how?
A61548The Man Christ Iesus?
A61548The Point in hand?
A61548The question is, Whether this be interpreting those Scriptures which speak of the Honour and Worship due to Christ, like wise Men?
A61548The question is, whether the distinct Properties of the Persons do imply a Division of the Substance?
A61548Then they were asked, Why they used those terms?
A61548They know there are such by the Ideas of their Properties, but know nothing of their Real Essence; and yet they will not allow them to be Mysteries?
A61548They may tell them, as they do us that they can have no Ideas, no clear and distinct Perceptions of immaterial Substances?
A61548Very true: But can you have a clear and distinct Idea of what you can not comprehend?
A61548Very true; but is all this contained in the simple Idea of these Operations?
A61548Was he not bound to undeceive them, when he knew they did so grossly mis- understand him, if he knew himself to be a meer Man at the same time?
A61548Was it not by force of Arms and the Prevalency of the Saracen and Turkish Empire?
A61548Was not his whole design in that Book to prove three distinct Persons of Father, Son and Holy Ghost, and yet but One God?
A61548Was the Morocco Ambassador one of them?
A61548Was this mystical Sense primarily intended or not?
A61548We can not reason without clear Ideas, and yet we may be certain without them: Can we be certain without Reason?
A61548Well, but what is this creating or disposing things into a new order?
A61548Were ever wise Men driven to such miserable Shifts?
A61548Were not those Iewish Christians?
A61548What Christian Ingenuity is here?
A61548What Proof, what Evidence, what credible Witnesses of it, as there were of his Transfiguration, Resurrection and Ascension?
A61548What Trinity do they mean?
A61548What a false and spiteful Inference is this?
A61548What an honest- hearted Deist do they make that Impostor Mahomet?
A61548What another sort of character is this from that of the greatest, and in their opinion the best of our Clergy?
A61548What answer do they give in this case?
A61548What are these Three?
A61548What can be the meaning of this if he did not take it for granted, that the Christian Church embraced the Doctrine of the Trinity in Baptism?
A61548What can satisfie such men, who are content with such an answer?
A61548What can this prove, but that we may call God and his Creatures to be Witnesses together of the same thing?
A61548What could they mean, if they did not believe them to have the same Divine Nature?
A61548What disposition of Matter is required to thinking?
A61548What do these men mean by such suggestions as these?
A61548What do these men mean, to charge one who goes upon these grounds with Sabellianism?
A61548What if S. Paul name the elect Angels in a solemn Obtestation to Timothy, together with God, and the Lord Iesus Christ?
A61548What is now become of the general Consent of the Christian Church, East and West?
A61548What is that bare Essence without the Powers and Properties belonging to it?
A61548What is that?
A61548What is the meaning of this, but that we can not have an adequate Idea of any thing?
A61548What is the meaning of this?
A61548What must these men think the Christian Church hath been made up of all this while?
A61548What number of Atheists is there, upon any other account than from a looseness of Thinking and Living?
A61548What say our Vnitarians to this?
A61548What say our Wise Interpreters to all this?
A61548What should make Beza pass it over here?
A61548What strange way of arguing would this have been?
A61548What that is, whereby we perceive the difference of Individuals?
A61548What that is, which really makes two Beings of the same kind to be different from each other?
A61548What the Holy Ghost?
A61548What the Son?
A61548What then would they say of the rest?
A61548What then?
A61548What would Iulian have given for such a Wise Interpretation of S. Iohn?
A61548What would these wise Interpreters have?
A61548What, and if ye shall see the Son of Man ascending where he was before?
A61548What, if Men without Biass of Interest, or Education think ours the more proper and agreeable Sense?
A61548What, nothing but good Words to him?
A61548What?
A61548When God is said to be an incomprehensible Being; who before them did understand the meaning to be, That we can not comprehend that there is a God?
A61548Where is the least Intimation given, that he look''d on the divine Persons as Modes and Respects only?
A61548Whether a specifick divine Nature be not inconsistent with the absolute Perfection, and necessary Existence which belongs to it?
A61548Whether it was accounted a monstrous Paradox and Contradiction, where Persons were not sway''d by Force and Interest?
A61548Whether their Doctrine about the Trinity or ours, be more agreeable to the sense of Scripture and Antiquity?
A61548Whether there be any ground of common reason, on which it can be justly charged with Nonsense, Impossibilities and Contradiction?
A61548Whether there can be more Individuals, where there is no Dissimilitude, and can be no Division or Separation?
A61548Which arise from the shallowness of Mens Capacities, and not from the repugnancy of Things: and who can help Mens Understandings?
A61548Who are they?
A61548Who are those Historians who give this character of him?
A61548Who denies it?
A61548Who denies, that one Person may have different Respects, and yet be but one Person subsisting?
A61548Why are these strong Reasons of learned Criticks mentioned, but to raise Doubts in Peoples minds about them?
A61548Why are they not named, that their authority might be examin''d?
A61548Why did he not conceal it,( as some would have done) and only represent to the Emperours, the fair and plausible part of Christianity?
A61548Why not the time and place mention''d in Scripture, as well as of his Fasting and Temptation?
A61548Why then should these clear and simple Ideas be made the sole Foundation of Reason?
A61548Will they make this a Contradiction too?
A61548Will they say, the Holy Ghost was there added for the sake of Montanus his Paraclete?
A61548Will you hold to this Principle?
A61548and if these are real Mysteries in Nature, why may not the same term be used for Matters of Faith?
A61548and of the Commentators upon this Creed?
A61548and to what end?
A61548but doth my argument proceed upon that, or upon the not having a distinct and clear Idea of a Spirit?
A61548in the Idea of our Selves?
A61548no Cerinthians among them?
A61548non tres Dii?
A61548none that had common sense, and could tell the difference between One and Three?
A61548or honest and fair dealing?
A61548were there no Men among them but the Vnitarians?
A61548why no Appearance of the Glory to satisfie Mankind of the truth of it?
A61548why no Witnesses?
