Theos anthropophoros. Or, God incarnate. . Shewing, that Jesus Christ is the onely, and the most high Godʺ In four books. Wherein also are contained a few animadversions upon a late namelesse and blasphemous Commentary on the Epistle to the Hebrewes, published under the capital letters, G.M. Anno Dom. 1647. In these four books the great mystery of man's redemption and salvation, and the wayes and means thereof used by God are evidently held out to the capacity of humane reason, even ordinary understandings. The sin against the Holy Ghost is plainly described; with the cases and reasons of the unpardonablenesse, or pardonablenesse thereof. Anabaptisme, is by Scripture, and the judgment of the fathers shewed to be an heinous sin, and exceedingly injurious to the Passion, and blood of Christ. By Edm. Porter, B.D. sometimes fellow of St. John's Colledge in Cambridge, and prebend of Norwich.
