In all these, Familists 1 Deny the Trinity, three persons in on God. And if the reader consider it Saltm. speaketh the same way with Gortine and H. Nich. Sparkles of glory p. 288. Others say (he meaneth himself and Familists whom he divideth from Protestants) the mystery of salvation is no other then Immanuel or God with us, or God in flesh, Christ being no more but an anointed one, and that anointed one is our nature or weakness anointed with the spirit, even God himself who is strength. There is not a word here of God and man in one person, and of true God consubstantial with the Father, and man like us in all things except sin, in the unity of one person, but Christ is our nature (in every Saint and believer) and weakness anointed with the spirit. Then every saint is Christ, and Christ hath no body and soul of his own, but every believer, Goded, deified, and anointed with the spirit, is Christ.

There is not a word here of God and man in one person, and of true God consubstantiall with the Father, and man like us in all things except sinne, in the unity of one person, but Christ is our nature (in every Saint and beleever) and weaknesse anoynted with the spirit. Then every saint is Christ, and Christ hath no body and soule of his owne, but every beleever, Goded, deified, and anoynted with the spirit, is Christ.
2 Christ is not one single man, who was crucified on Mount Calvary: But every weak believer made of flesh, and a frail body, and of a soul Goded and anointed with the spirit, is God manifest in the flesh, and another Messiah we have not but every Saint is his own Saviour, Christ is nothing but mystical Christ by his spirit dwelling in the flesh and weak nature of all Saints; is not this the Antichrist who denieth that Christ is come in the flesh?
