Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Guide to Christ, or the Way of Directing Souls That Are Under the Work of Conversion: Compiled for the Help of Young Ministers; And May Be Serviceable to Private Christians Who Are Inquiring the Way to Zion
The truth of this Opinion is much to be suspected from what has been left on record to the contrary, by Hildersham, Perkins, Dodd, Sibbs, Bains, Dike, Ball, Preston, Hooker, Shepard, Norton, and others'of the like stamp, whose judgment in matters of this nature does outweigh the judgment of thousands of others, though othern itse' learn ed men. But besides this, there is a great deal of light held forth in the word of God, in this matter. I will not argue from Israel's being led by Moses, the lawgiver, out of Egypt, through a land of pits and droughts, and fiery ?ying serpents, before they were brought into the land of Canaan by Joshua nor from the legal dispensation of the cove nant of grace foregoing the evangelical: nor from John Baptist's being sent as a forerun ner of Christ to prepare the way of the Lord nor from the parable of the prodigal, being in want, and becoming a servant ofa citizen of the country before he returned to his father nor from the dry bones being in a disconsolate condition, before God put life into them. These things may better be made use of for illustrations than proofs.
