Sug. 1. There is no such word of God at all: that Scripture which is called Gods word, was not inspired of God, but so said to be, only to make men to give greater credence thereto. Thus before Gods word was written, Satan brought men to doubt of that revelation of Gods will which it pleased God to give to man, asa our first parents, andb the old world. Now it is written, he makes men think it is but as other writings of mans invention: herewith are not only plain Atheists, but also many poor distressed wavering souls deceived.3
