FIrst of all you go about and flatter the powers and the Magistrates and tells them they ought to have a care of their peoples souls in keeping them from infection of idolatry and blasphemy and you say you are to informe them of the dangerousnesse of great meeting in London of Quakers whose opinions are blasphemous Paganish Antiscriptural and Anti-Christian even as the former And further the greatest thing that troubles you is Printing and publishing books many thousands you say concerning blasphemous and heretical and antimagistratical opinions tending to unchristian people and disorder the people of the Nations and to bring in paganisme and libertinisme and this you say you present unto them to provoke their zeale against them Oh you blood thirsty minded men all the care that you would have the Magistrates to take of the people is to destroy them and to have them shut up in holes and caves and dens and prisons and the truth ever suffered by your generation and your generation hath ever pressed the Magistrates that they might abuse their power and if they will but hearken to you instead of healing the people they will be destroyers and in stead of making up breaches they will make desolate and so you would drive them on hastily to satisfie your corrupt wil and to uphold your Diana and your craft that you may make merchandize of that which hath been long enough sold and printed by you and what hath it done who is turned from darknesse to light and you that makes a trade of others writings and words to maintain you in your lusts and deceive this you would have them to uphold but as for the care of peoples soules it s far enough from you and all along your filthy lying slanderous booke you are made manifest to bee of those that would have fire to come down from heaven in your wils to destroy all those that withstand you and your imaginations And therfore let all magistrates in whom the fear of the Lord is take heed how they take things from the hands and mouthes of them who hath alwaies persecuted the power of truth and called truth errour and light darknesse and darknesse light and in a blind zeale for God destroy them whom the power of the Lord is manifest in for so Paul persecuted Christ and the Saints and so the Jewes crucified Christ and all the Saints have suffered And you are offended at our meeting in London while wee have beene here in the City wee have not been in a corner and wee challenge you and all the City in the name of the Lord who is dreadfull to all liers and slanderers to show what are those blasphemies that you speake of you backbiters shall have your portion with the rest of hypocrites opinions we deny for the light of Jesus Christ which is spirituall which appears and declares against all sects and opinions and blasphemies and all you who hates it are in contention and in opinions and blaspheme the truth and here I charge it upon you in the presence of the living God that you are blasphemers who calls the light naturall and paganisme and the Lord wil plead with you you filthy corrupt minds who calls the light of Christ Antichristian for here in the presence of the Lord of hosts I speake it no other light doe wee owne to walk by but that which is spiritual and eternal the light of Christ which he hath enlightned every one that comes into the world withal and this is not Anti-scriptural as thou cals it for the Scriptures witness the same and Christ bears witness of it and no other light do we own but the same that ever was which was in the beginning and which convinceth the world of sin and the same that led up the Saints to know the Father and the Son and you that cal this paganisme and heretical and blasphemous and Antichristian let all who have any light in them judg and let shame cover your faces and fear take hold upon you for your words stinke and come out of the mouth of the dragon ye filthy unclean frogs which hath poison under your tongues And as for the bookes which wee have Printed wee owne them and are ready to lay downe our lives for the testimonie of Jesus and the truth of them and seale them with our blood and what are written in them through the eternal power of God which is made manifest and that wee have published any thing against any just Magistracie let all our writings and all who reade them judge and if bearing witnesse to Jesus Christ unchristians people let all judge for no other do wee owne but the same Christ to day and yesterday and for ever and here all your petitioning is made manifest from whence it did arise and proceed and your shame and nakednesse and envie appears And the Sacraments which you say you use which is appointed in the Scripture and Farnworth in Answer to a petition did deny them Answer His answer we owne and I challenge you to bee perverters of the Scripture where read you of Sacraments in the Scripture here I charge you to be liers and slanderers and deniers of the Scripture and adders to it and the plagues shall be added to you and as for that which you use among you is traditional and imitatory Yet the bread which wee break is the Communion of the body of Christ and the cup wee drink is the Communion of the blood of Christ and this is that which Paul received from him and Baptisme by one spirit into one body we owne the baptisme is but one and this wee owne and here you liers and slanderers are seen and denied Another thing you call heresie and blasphemy is that wee say
