The SCOOL-MASTER disciplin'd OR A Reply to a lying Paper entitulled The gadding tribe reproved c. WHereas there is a paper lately put forth intitul'd The gadding Tribe reproved by the light of the Scriptures by one who writes himself George VVillington School-master in the City of Bristol whose book is very filly and vain but that sools love to bee medling and in it there is much railing lying and false accusing against those people called by the scorners Quakers I shal say something as to it for the truths sake that the lies may rest upon his own head from whence they came Whereas thou sayest A word from the VVord to the Serpent-generation called Quakers especially to the conniving seducer John Andland and the rest of his brethren in iniquity who have of late set forth a malicious Pamphlet against our godly Magistrates and faithful Ministers intituled The innocent delivered out of the snare and the blinde guide sallen into the pit Reply The innocent delivered out of the snare is not malicious and in this thou art a false accuser and in saying I am a seducer thou art a slanderer I charge thee to prove it and in what which thou hast not yet done though thou rail upon me and I did not write maliciously against any much less against Godly Magistrates and faithful Ministers but godly Magistrates I own and honor in the Lord and faithful Ministers I have unity withal and brethren in iniquity is denied thesefore thee I do deny who a worker of iniquity art found and from the presence of the Lord shut among the serpent-generation who in scorn calls us Quakers and the word is against thee who art feeding upon dust and going upon thy belly and the word of the Lord even the word of truth is against thee who art an accuser of the brethren and rewarded must thou be according to thy deeds and though thou hast named that book the innocent delivered yet let all take notice who reads thy filthy paper that thou hast not answered any one thing there demanded neither confuted any one answer in that Book so the snare remains broken and the innocent is delivered and he that digged a pit into it himself falls and the Scripturo is fulfilled they that help and hee that is holpen hoth falls together And whereas thou s●ts down many Scriptures as of blind guides Serpents scribes Pharisces Hypocrites whited Sepulchres and writest Ye serpents yee vipers how can ye escape the damnation of hell ye are they that justifie your selves before men but that which is highly esteemed amongst men is an abomination to the Lord Reply In that which is an abomination to the Lord thou art which is eesteemed amongst men and these Scriptures were spoken to thy Generation and upon thy own head they are returned for we seek not the praise of men neither have we the praise of men and therefore it is that the ●linde guides Vipers Serpents gather themselves together against the truth which by the power of God is now spreading a witness against all deceit and deceivers Thou sayest thou writest directly to thee John Audland and usest these words thou hypocrite why hath satan filled thy heart to lye against the Holy Ghost why b●astest thou thy selfe in mischief O mighty man thy tongue deviseth mischief like a sharp Rasor thou lovest evil more then good thou lovest all devouring words O thou deceitsul tongue God shal destroy thee for ever And sayest Paul set his eyes on Elimas the sorcerer and said as I may say to thee John Audland O ful of subtilty and all mischief thou child of the Devil and sayest repent of this thy wickedness for I perceive thou art in the gall of bitterness and in the bond of iniquity and many such words thou writest Reply Take it to thy self who art of the Generation to which it was spoken for home to thee do I return it who art in the bitterness and in the gall loving all devouring words these things comes not neer me but over thy head do I rejoyce the misery wil fall upon thy self and thy unclean spirit the Lord rebuke a false accuser thou art and a slanderer I do not love evil more than good if I had I should not have become thine enemy neither am I the gall of bitterness or bond of iniquity thou hast uttered that which thou knowest not for if thou hadst known what this means I wil have mercy and not sacrifice thou wouldst not have condemned the innocent And whereas thou sayest judge not that thou he not judged and judge nothing before the time and with what measure thou meetest it shall be measured to thee again and writest against others for rayling and judging Reply Thou art inexcusable who judgest another and doest the same thing thy mouth is ful of railing lying false accusing which proceeds out of the aboundance of thy heart as in thy book appears out of thy own mouth thou art condemned and this I demand whether calling others Serpents Vipers full of all mischiefe children of the devil be not judging and if this be not then shew the difference between this and judging thou hast gone about to confute that the Saints is not to judge and that confutes thee who yet knows not a Saints life and art so blinde thou cannot behold that thou alloweth thy self in the thing which thou condemneth and with what measure thou measurest it shal be measured to thee again good weight shalt thou receive from the hand of the Lord who art weighed and found as chaff which the wind drives to and fro In thy 7 pag thou beseecheth all who shall read thy book upon consideration of the premises which is these things before mentioned to avoid and abandon the meetings books erroneous doctrines and hellish blasphemies of this new upstart impious Generation Reply All who knows the

Lord and reads thy book wil avoid thee and it and have no fellowship with such unfruitful workers and works of Darkness thou hast forgotten judge not and thou hypocrite first cast out the beam thy envious Spirit which fomes like the sea casting up filth swells beyond its bounds but thou art limited as all thy impious generation have been and by the power of the Lord are we preserved from thy errors and hellish blasphemy and thy railing and slandering return upon thy felt fruitless tree upon which no grapes is gathered Thou sayest what Paul said to the Galatians the same thou wilt say to the giddy headed people of the Church of England Reply The true Church is in God builded upon the true rock and is not giddy-headded here thou manifests the fruits of the Teachers who so long hath taught and had so much for teaching and the Church of England yet giddy-headded but the Lord is comming to gather his people into the true Fold from the mouths of all Idol Shepheards and to teach his people himself that they may be established in righteousness Thou sayest Paul taught the Romanes and in them us first that it is the imputed Righteousness of Christ onely that makes us just in the sight of God Secondly that our election is of Gods free Grace Thirdly that we are justified only by faith in the sight of God without good works fourthly that the scriptures is of divine authority Reply Silence flesh before the Lord upon the children of disobedience shall the wrath of God be revealed own thy Portion what Paul said to such as thee thou must witness a change before that which Paul wrote to the Romanes be to thy condition the Lord is our righteousness and our justification and by his grace we are saved who hath elected us and chosen us in Christ Jesus who hath all power and authority committed unto him and upon whose shoulders the government is laid but from thy earthly wisdom is the election and the faith hid who art without good works and belyes the Apostle and ignorant art of the Letter which kils Fiftly Thou sayest no man since the fall of Adam can perfectly fulfil the Law of God in this Life and therefore cannot merit except it be wrath Reply For meriting the wrath it s thy own but Christ Jesus since the fall of Adam hath perfectly fulfilled the Law of God and there is Salvation in no other and the righteousness of the Law is fulfilled in us who walk not after the flesh but after the spirit but by the works of the Law no flesh shall be justified for the Commandment which was ordained unto life wrought death if thou can hear thou may In thy sixt and seventh thou saist that he that hath received a Ministry should wait on his Ministry and take heed to fulfil it and that every soul must be subject to the higher power and yeild obedience to every Ordinance of theirs if not contrary to Gods word Reply Thou slanders us and rails upon us who hath received a Ministry from God waits to fulfil it and thou receives such as come in their own name who are made by the wil of man against such do we bear witness by the power of God unto which our souls is subject for conscience sake and to every ordinance for the Lords sake which is not contrary to Gods word Thou sayest thou art afraid that the Lord hath a controversie with the Church of England Reply Fearfulness surprizeth the heart of the hypocrite and a controversie hath the Lord with you because of your iniquities misery is coming upon you fearful ones and unbelievers who are no Church of Christ but a Synagogue of Satan who say they are Iews and are not but are a giddy-headed Church as thou confessest Thou sayest Make not the light within a rule to walk by and yet saith sollow the light within and teacher within what else Reply The light discovers thee to be in confusion they that walk in the light stumbles not and they who love the Light bring their deeds to it and believes in the light but their deeds are evil who ha●e it and walk not in it and there is thy condemnation Thou sayest He that entreth not in by the door to wit a true and lawful call but climbeth up some other way the same is a thief and a robber and such are the quakers but he that entreth in by the door is the shepherd of the Sheep and such are your ancient Divine● Reply Here thou as in other places art a false accuser and a perverter of the Scriptures your Divines is not the Shepheard there thou art a blasphemer who would set up fal●e Christs the true Shepheard laid down his life for the sheep and he is the door and them whom thou slanderest enters in at the door where no thief nor no diviner can enter nor no hireling which the true Shepheard cryed against And as thou sayest Thou will speak something to our principles first for judging Reply Thou hast judged us to be deceivers and seducers and false accusations against the truth thou hast brought and against some in particular naming that Iohn Audland was a child of the Devil and yet thou hast confessed thou never saw me nor heard me but thou hast not proved wherein which I charge thee to do publikely or own thy condemnation for thy slandring lying and backbiting thy laying that it is so doth not make it to be so and that which thou cals a confutation confutes thyself but proves nothing against the Saints judging them whom they saw and discerned to be unlearned for when an unbeliever came in or one that was unlearned he was judged of all and the thoughts of his heart made manifest and this honor have all the Saints to bind Kings in chains and to execute upon the heathen all the judgments written and the Scripture we own and the Saints life by which thou art judged and with the light condemned who judgest and acts against the Saints with that mind that is for judgment The second is that they are not true Ministers which are called by mans Ministery or by a mediate call from man and this thou goest about to confute by saying that Christ ordained apostles and disciples And the Holy Ghost said Seperate me Barnabas and Saul for the work of the Ministry and that there was Elders ordained in the Church and the like Reply These things proves nothing to thy mediate cal or mans Ministery Christ is not born by the wil of man and holy men spoke as they were moved by the Holy Ghost and no prophesie came by the will of man Paul a Minister and Apostle not by the will of man and that which is highly esteemed amongst men is abomination in the sight of God and there is thy mediate call and mans ministery which the Scriptures speaks not of what Christ did and the Saints did was by the power of
