The

whole

Dotirine

we

contend for, is

plainly,

and clearly afferted , and

bottomed on

a

text

of

Scripture,

which

in

a frecial manner

(

as

we have

tame

)

we

do

infift upon; all

that

is

loft

by

temptations

in

the

Chuich,

Anéyet,

we

arc

within the compafs

of

that

fpan

ofame,which our adverfaries,without proof,w,thout

fhame,

claime

to

be

theirs. One Principal

foundation

of

out

lottrine

, is

the bellowing

of

the

holy

Ghoft

upon

Believers by

jells Chuff

Where

he

is

fay

we he

abides:

for

he

is

given them

for

that end.eiz:

to

abide

with

them

for

ever.

Now

concerning

him

Bahl

tells us,

that

though

in a

fort, he may

be faid

to

be

prefent with

all,

that

are

baptifed,

yet

he

u

never

mix-

ed

With any

that are

not worthy,

that

is,

he

dwells

not

with

any

that
