     summary: [ mark ] Here was need for Iohn ; I have need , said Iohn ; well , Jesus denyes it not but there was so , nevertheless Suffer it to be so NOW [ mark Now ] Why Now ? Because Now is thy Time ; for thou wast sent before me for this End , might Christ have said , and this Dispensation is of God ; and thus , or therefore it becometh us to fulfil all the Righteousness : why , then Iohn suffered him . Of this Man's Seed ( saith he ) hath God according to his Promise , raised unto Israel a Saviour , Jesus , when John had first preached before his Coming the Baptism of Repentance to all the People of Israel : Mind ye , all ye Baptizers in Water , when Christ was raised unto Israel , when Iohn had first preached before his Coming [ mark ] Iohn had a Time we grant and own with all our Hearts ; but was it not before his Coming here spoken of ?

     summary: But since Babylon , the Mystery of Iniquity , the Mother of Harlots , got upon the Beast , we have seen many a beastly , drunken and unclean Man , pretend to be a spiritual Man , and a Minister of the Gospel ; and hath not such been cried up , and made great , and bore Rule amongst the People , who have been carried away with his Doctrine ; and why ? Because he is a greater Scholar , and hath attained the Languages , and can speak , or write , like Pilate , Latin , Greek , and Hebrew : But is he dead to Sin , and alive unto Righteousness , made so unto God through Christ ? But , Can any Man serve two Masters ? Christ said , They could not : And , Can any Man be both a Servant of Christ , and a Servant of Sin also ? Christ saith , He that commits Sin , is the Servant of Sin : And Iohn , his beloved Apostle , saith , He that commits Sin , is of the Devil : And in my Iudgment it cannot be denied ; for Sin was never any Service of God , but of the Devil ; and if Men be found in the Devil's Service , and yet say , They are Servants of Christ , What sensible Man will believe them ? Now , therefore , here is the ground Cause of all our Divisions about Religion , Rebels and Wicked Men that are gone away from God , Christ , the Holy Ghost , and are gone into the Kingdom of Satan , and live in Sin all their Days ( for his Kingdom is a Kingdom of Sin ) and yet say , They are Servants of Christ Iesus , and the blind People believe them , though their Fruits do manifest them .
