A63786	Truth's triumph over errour: or, The routing of the seven false prophets who have all lived in London in lesse then these 20. years: (viz.) Farnam, Bull, weavers, Robbins, Garment husbandmen. Smith, a shooe-maker. Muggleton and Reeve, taylors. Wherein is clearly discovered and confuted all their most blasphemous, damnable, false and rediculous tenents. Themselves and falshoods opened, anatomized, and dissected, and found to be no better then impostures, liers, deluders, and spirituall gypsies. Proved by time the mother of truth, reason, scripture, and their own contradictions. Written by Stephen Proud-love, a lover of the truth.		1653 (1653)	Wing T3172A; ESTC R219214	8,882	17

fright_v and_o terrify_v the_o heart_n and_o spirit_n of_o some_o other_o simple_a heart_a people_n just_a as_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v by_o their_o excommunication_n the_o author_n of_o this_o short_a treatise_n hear_v of_o these_o man_n who_o assume_v unto_o themselves_o such_o power_n do_v desire_n to_o be_v acquaint_v with_o they_o and_o at_o the_o first_o meeting_n do_v ask_v

he_o be_v in_o the_o person_n of_o a_o man_n from_o all_o eternity_n and_o that_o there_o be_v not_o be_v not_o nor_o never_o shall_v be_v any_o other_o god_n but_o the_o same_o lord_n jesus_n

when_o this_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v incarnate_a and_o in_o his_o minority_n and_o at_o his_o suffering_n and_o in_o the_o grave_n then_o there_o be_v no_o god_n in_o heaven_n nor_o in_o earth_n the_o government_n of_o all_o thing_n for_o that_o time_n be_v commit_v to_o moses_n and_o elias_n and_o whatsoever_o god_n shall_v be_v profess_v by_o any_o they_o have_v power_n both_o to_o curse_v and_o to_o damn_v they_o and_o their_o professor_n to_o the_o second_o they_o plain_o declare_v that_o they_o can_v not_o err_v nor_o fail_v and_o be_v both_o alike_o mind_v for_o they_o have_v a_o

able_a to_o write_v scripture_n more_o than_o they_o all_o and_o that_o there_o have_v not_o be_v any_o man_n these_o fourteen_o hundred_o year_n past_a that_o ever_o have_v speak_v truth_n from_o

that_o that_o eternal_a everliving_a and_o all_o sufficient_a only_o wise_a god_n who_o have_v his_o be_v of_o himself_o and_o in_o himself_o send_v forth_o all_o thing_n as_o of_o so_o from_o

make_v the_o rock_n to_o rend_v in_o piece_n you_o how_v terrible_a be_v the_o voice_n of_o god_n to_o the_o israelite_n at_o mount_n sinai_n that_o they_o never_o desire_v to_o hear_v it_o any_o more_o wherefore_o they_o desire_v that_o moses_n may_v speak_v with_o they_o and_o not_o god_n any_o more_o and_o second_o whereas_o they_o do_v declare_v that_o they_o can_v sin_v at_o all_o nor_o

if_o rash_a anger_n rash_a judgement_n censure_v and_o backbiting_a be_v not_o sin_n again_o i_o with_o many_o other_o be_v able_a to_o testify_v against_o they_o to_o their_o face_n how_o they_o

no_o man_n be_v able_a to_o deceive_v they_o or_o go_v about_o it_o but_o they_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o discern_v their_o hypocrisy_n or_o deceit_n they_o have_v in_o my_o hear_n and_o in_o the_o hear_n of_o some_o other_o pronounce_v the_o sentence_n of_o damnation_n upon_o a_o man_n i_o ask_v whether_o for_o no_o this_o sentence_n can_v not_o be_v revoke_v upon_o the_o party_n humiliation_n and_o acknowledgement_n of_o his_o error_n the_o one_o of_o they_o to_o wit_n muggleton_n answer_v it_o may_v then_o i_o ask_v the_o other_o to_o wit_n reeve_n the_o same_o question_n and_o he_o

prophet_n reeve_n have_v in_o my_o sight_n with_o a_o many_o other_o pronounce_v the_o sentence_n of_o blessedness_n and_o salvation_n to_o a_o gunsmith_n in_o the_o minory_n his_o fellow_n prophet_n do_v within_o a_o quarter_n of_o a_o hour_n pronounce_v the_o sentence_n of_o damnation_n upon_o the_o same_o party_n and_o also_o the_o blast_a of_o his_o estate_n again_o not_o long_o since_o be_v in_o company_n with_o the_o foresay_a two_o pretend_a prophet_n and_o some_o other_o company_n there_o come_v in_o a_o gentleman_n who_o they_o have_v damn_v three_o month_n before_o or_o

by_o which_o mean_n he_o do_v obtain_v their_o good_a like_n insomuch_o that_o they_o both_o declare_v they_o have_v nothing_o against_o he_o but_o that_o he_o may_v have_v the_o blessing_n whereupon_o the_o gentleman_n call_v they_o a_o couple_n of_o loggerhead_n say_v be_v you_o the_o prophet_n of_o the_o lord_n &_o do_v not_o know_v that_o you_o have_v already_o sentence_v i_o to_o

himself_o and_o three_o these_o two_o pretend_a prophet_n do_v not_o only_o assume_v unto_o themselves_o a_o prerogative_n and_o power_n above_o and_o beyond_o moses_n &_o the_o other_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o mind_n and_o will_n of_o god_n in_o the_o scripture_n but_o also_o that_o they_o can_v both_o add_v to_o these_o scripture_n and_o diminish_v from_o they_o say_v whatsoever_o they_o shall_v not_o approve_v of_o to_o be_v scripture_n be_v no_o scripture_n at_o all_o and_o so_o have_v cut_v off_o all_o salomon_n write_n and_o the_o book_n of_o job_n to_o be_v any_o part_n of_o the_o scripture_n by_o mean_n whereof_o there_o be_v a_o great_a stumble_a block_n lay_v before_o the_o weak_a who_o in_o the_o sincerity_n of_o their_o heart_n be_v seek_v the_o lord_n and_o have_v ever_o have_v these_o book_n in_o esteem_n as_o all_o other_o scripture_n nay_o and_o some_o have_v say_v that_o they_o may_v as_o well_o question_v all_o the_o other_o scripture_n as_o these_o now_o i_o will_v question_v whether_o or_o no_o these_o man_n that_o thus_o add_v to_o and_o diminish_v at_o their_o pleasure_n from_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v not_o such_o as_o come_v under_o that_o sentence_n mention_v in_o the_o 22._o of_o the_o revel_n curse_a be_v every_o one_o that_o add_v or_o diminish_v from_o the_o word_n which_o be_v write_v in_o this_o

and_o likewise_o that_o these_o pretend_a prophet_n may_v not_o be_v the_o same_o false_a deceive_a prophet_n which_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n bid_v use_n beware_v and_o take_v heed_n of_o in_o the_o 7._o of_o matth._n ver_fw-la 15._o therefore_o i_o have_v here_o insert_v their_o tenet_n as_o follow_v several_a tenet_n hold_v by_o these_o pretend_a prophet_n 1._o the_o god_n who_o they_o worship_v and_o serve_v have_v not_o only_o a_o audible_a voice_n but_o also_o the_o body_n of_o a_o man_n discribe_v he_o to_o be_v a_o little_o short_a than_o the_o author_n of_o this_o book_n and_o a_o little_o tall_a than_o the_o say_a prophet_n reeve_n nay_o he_o be_v the_o pitch_n of_o a_o young_a gentleman_n who_o they_o have_v bless_v 2._o that_o there_o be_v a_o place_n or_o earth_n above_o the_o star_n wherein_o this_o bodily_a god_n do_v reside_v and_o out_o of_o which_o he_o create_v this_o natural_a earth_n upon_o which_o we_o live_v and_o that_o in_o that_o upper_a or_o firmamentall_a earth_n there_o be_v sea_n with_o all_o manner_n of_o fish_n and_o that_o there_o be_v all_o manner_n of_o beast_n and_o fowl_n and_o there_o be_v the_o place_n or_o habitation_n of_o the_o bless_a angel_n as_o also_o of_o the_o saint_n aforesaid_a 3._o that_o the_o body_n and_o soul_n do_v both_o depart_v this_o life_n and_o die_v together_o and_o so_o continue_v unto_o the_o resurrection_n 4._o that_o after_o the_o general_n resurrection_n this_o earth_n upon_o which_o we_o now_o live_v shall_v be_v a_o place_n whereupon_o all_o the_o damn_a shall_v reside_v and_o be_v torment_v for_o ever_o 5._o this_o shall_v be_v the_o torment_n wherewith_o the_o say_v damn_v shall_v be_v torment_v that_o their_o body_n shall_v be_v as_o brimstone_n and_o their_o spirit_n as_o fire_n there_o to_o burn_v and_o be_v torment_v for_o ever_o and_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o outgoing_a nor_o incom_v of_o any_o of_o the_o sense_n whereby_o they_o shall_v have_v the_o least_o comfort_n or_o pleasure_n in_o any_o thing_n 6._o whereas_o some_o have_v declare_v and_o a_o many_o more_o may_v declare_v that_o they_o have_v receive_v the_o assurance_n to_o themselves_o of_o god_n love_n in_o jesus_n christ_n yet_o these_o do_v declare_v that_o it_o be_v nothing_o nor_o of_o no_o worth_n if_o they_o shall_v declare_v the_o contrary_a whereby_o they_o make_v themselves_o to_o be_v above_o god_n himself_o 7._o that_o whosoever_o do_v not_o work_v for_o they_o be_v all_o sure_a as_o there_o be_v a_o god_n in_o heaven_n damn_v to_o all_o eternity_n there_o be_v once_o a_o old_a man_n in_o company_n who_o they_o have_v former_o dam_v speak_v to_o the_o prophet_n reeve_n to_o fall_v to_o his_o work_n again_o he_o do_v plain_o declare_v in_o the_o

be_v a_o doctrine_n for_o you_o 8._o that_o most_o of_o all_o those_o who_o have_v draw_v the_o sword_n in_o these_o war_n be_v as_o sure_a as_o there_o be_v a_o god_n in_o heaven_n damn_v to_o all_o eternity_n and_o that_o general_n cromwell_n himself_o if_o he_o shall_v despise_v their_o commission_n they_o will_v pronounce_v he_o a_o damn_a reprobate_n 9_o that_o all_o minister_n lawyer_n physician_n and_o whosoever_o go_v to_o law_n or_o whosoever_o take_v physic_n for_o the_o recovery_n of_o their_o health_n be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o damnation_n 10._o that_o all_o those_o who_o they_o damn_v in_o this_o world_n shall_v never_o neither_o in_o this_o world_n nor_o in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v see_v or_o know_v any_o other_o god_n but_o they_o 11._o that_o whosoever_o they_o declare_v or_o sentence_v to_o be_v bless_v shall_v daily_o more_o and_o more_o increase_n in_o faith_n and_o more_o and_o more_o daily_o shall_v have_v power_n over_o sin_n and_o at_o a_o time_n one_o who_o they_o bid_v bless_v declare_v plain_o that_o he_o have_v not_o as_o yet_o find_v any_o such_o effect_n wrought_v on_o he_o they_o tell_v he_o that_o their_o faith_n shall_v uphold_v he_o till_o he_o have_v receive_v faith_n of_o his_o own_o 12._o one_o ask_v they_o how_o they_o shall_v attain_v to_o their_o faith_n they_o tell_v he_o that_o they_o must_v cast_v away_o all_o ordinance_n as_o pray_v hear_v and_o the_o like_a and_o believe_v they_o to_o be_v those_o two_o prophet_n beforementioned_a send_v of_o god_n 13._o if_o that_o god_n shall_v not_o maintain_v they_o without_o work_v they_o will_v never_o serve_v such_o a_o god_n 14._o that_o their_o god_n be_v wise_a and_o know_v more_o to_o day_n then_o yesterday_o and_o so_o continual_o increase_v in_o wisdom_n &_o knowledge_n 15._o that_o the_o judge_n of_o this_o land_n together_o with_o the_o minister_n and_o magistrate_n be_v those_o that_o shall_v be_v cast_v into_o the_o lake_n alive_a 16._o if_o they_o shall_v be_v bring_v before_o authority_n for_o this_o their_o judgement_n or_o practice_n they_o shall_v not_o be_v half_a so_o fearful_a to_o suffer_v death_n as_o jesus_n christ_n himself_o be_v i_o have_v also_o often_o observe_v one_o cheat_a trick_n or_o policy_n of_o these_o last_o 2_o pretend_a prophet_n that_o when_o any_o come_v to_o reason_n with_o they_o and_o to_o put_v they_o to_o it_o they_o will_v present_o pronounce_v the_o sentence_n of_o damnation_n against_o such_o a_o one_o mere_o to_o shun_v all_o manner_n of_o discourse_n with_o such_o say_v that_o they_o be_v not_o to_o reason_n or_o bold_a conferrence_n with_o the_o damn_a now_o i_o come_v to_o a_o conclusion_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o all_o tenderness_n of_o affection_n i_o will_v entreat_v all_o people_n to_o be_v careful_a and_o take_v heed_n of_o all_o such_o false_a deceive_a and_o delude_a spirit_n which_o come_v forth_o with_o such_o message_n to_o damn_v and_o to_o curse_v and_o say_v that_o they_o be_v send_v of_o god_n for_o that_o end_n and_o purpose_n which_o in_o my_o judgement_n be_v one_o of_o the_o horride_v blasphemy_n that_o ever_o i_o hear_v of_o and_o a_o doctrine_n so_o contrary_a to_o the_o tenor_n of_o the_o whole_a gospel_n for_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o 5._o chapter_n of_o matthew_n pronounce_v many_o blessing_n but_o these_o two_o say_v that_o no_o blessing_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v available_a upon_o any_o that_o shall_v in_o the_o least_o gainsay_v they_o the_o power_n of_o blessing_n and_o curse_v be_v commit_v to_o they_o as_o the_o instrument_n of_o god_n for_o that_o purpose_n and_o this_o also_o be_v far_o contrary_a to_o paul_n doctrine_n who_o say_v bless_v and_o curse_v not_o know_v that_o you_o be_v thereunto_o call_v and_o it_o have_v be_v ever_o the_o property_n of_o all_o saint_n in_o all_o age_n whensoever_o they_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n that_o they_o themselves_o be_v bless_v of_o god_n not_o only_o to_o refrain_v from_o curse_v but_o even_o with_o all_o their_o heart_n and_o soul_n to_o bless_v and_o to_o rejoice_v themselves_o in_o blessing_n but_o i_o have_v know_v these_o two_o pretend_a prophet_n with_o all_o eagerness_n and_o bitterness_n of_o spirit_n to_o double_a and_o redouble_v their_o curse_n upon_o some_o call_v they_o devil_n and_o reprobate_v devil_n mere_o for_o not_o approve_v their_o judgement_n and_o therefore_o for_o my_o own_o part_n i_o leave_v they_o to_o the_o judgement_n of_o those_o who_o shall_v have_v
