A44843 The record of sufferings for tythes in England the sufferers are, The seed of God, or, The assembly of his first-born, or, The first fruits unto God in England, in this age, who are called to be faithful, and have been found faithful, therefore have we suffered willingly the spoiling of our goods, for to us the truth is more precious then our estates, lives, or outward liberties, and thererfore hath the Lord accounted us first worthy to suffer for his name sake, and to be as lights in this deceitful generation : those which our suffering is a testimony against, is that priesthood which is light and treacherous, which in all ages the Lord raised up faithful witnesses against : ... : and in these dayes we may say, that they are worse then any troop of robbers, or any that preached for hire that ever went before them, as will appear in this book following, by their devouring vvidovvs houses spoiling mens goods, and destroying mens persons / given forth from those whom the Lord regards, who do tremble at his word, for which cause we are in scorn called Quakers ...

THE RECORD OF SUFFERINGS FOR TYTHES IN ENGLAND The Sufferers are The Seed of God or The assembly of his First-born or The First Fruits unto God in England in this Age who are called to be faithful and have been found faithful therefore have we suffered willingly the spoiling of our Goods for to us the Truth is more precious then our Estates Lives or outward Liberties and therefore hath the Lord accounted us first worthy to suffer for his Name sake and to be as Lights in this deceitful Generation Those which our sufferings is a testimony against is that Priesthood which is light and treacherous which in all Ages the Lord raised up faithful witnesses against for Isaiah said That they were all blind and ignorant and dumb dogs and never had enough Isa. 56. 10 11. And Ieremiah said That the Prophets prophesied falsly and the Priests did bear rule by their means Jer. 5. And Ezekiel said They fed themselves and not the flock Ezek. 34. Mica said They preached for hire and divined for money Mic. 2. 11. and Hosea said That they were as a Troop of Robbers that did wait for a man so the company of Priests did murther in the way by consent Hos. 6. 9. And in these dayes we may say that they are worse then any troop of Robbers or any that preached for hire that ever went before them as wil appear in this Book following by their devouring VVidows Houses spoiling mens goods and destroying mens persons Given forth from those whom the Lord regards who do tremble at his word for which cause we are in scorn called Quakers whom the Lord hath raised up as his army before whom the Nations shall tremble Ioel 2. and bow down their backs always before the truth London Printed for Tho. Simmons at the Bull and Mouth neer Aldersgate 1658 To the READER GOD hath a great work to do in this generation to pull down the abominations which hath long reigned and many are straitned till it be accomplished and onely such must be exercised in this work who are called chosen and faithful many have been called but have not been faithful but have destroyed in their works that which they seemed to have established by words and was not faithful to witness the life of their words by their works so that by a true search we have found the words of righteousness in many but we have found the works of righteousness but in few and though God hath shined into the hearts of many by his light yet there are but few children of it in comparison of the disobedient The eye of God hath looked into the world and he sees men differ more in words then in life and conversation and some in words do witnesse for God but in their works deny him As for example How many of late yeers had a zeal stirred up in them by the spirit of the Lord against the abominations of the Priests and the oppression of tythes preaching both down even as that which denyed Christ to be come in the flesh So that if words had ben that which would have finished the work the Land had been clensed before this time of that abomination but the Lord hath brought a tryal upon such spirits whether they will own their testimony through the spoiling of their Goods and imprisonment of their bodies and therefore hath God suffered an earthly power and a Law to try them and now they do rather deny their Testimony then suffer by that Law which gives the Priests tythes as for Witnesses most of the baptized people in England have betrayed their testimony and profession in that thing And how are you worthy to be called Saints which bear such a testimony can this equally be compared with the testimony of the Saints of old Did they cry down false worships and false teachers in words and did they uphold them by giving them wages Have you not herein sinned against light Did you not once see that they were never sent of God And will you now uphold them because you cannot suffer for your testimony Is not your paying them wages and giving them tythes a greater witness for them then your preaching them down in words is against them and may they not herein rejoice over you Christ is not herein your example which for this end was born and for this end came into the world to bear witness to the truth and did finish the work which the Father had given him to do and was made perfect through sufferings but such never need suffer who preach down deceit in words and hold it up in works And the Apostles is not your example for they were in works that which they declared in words therefore hath God cast you by as not fit to be Labourers in his Vineyard But a people is the Lord raising up whom he is giving his holy spirit unto whose witness to him must stand as well in works as in words who love the truth more then their lives or liberties goods or estates and are valiant for it upon the earth which cannot be subject to the powers of darkness nor the Rulers of the darkness of this world but believeth that whatsoever they deny for Christ in this life they shall receive a hundred sold in the world to come life everlasting And these are they whom the Father will exercise with his holy spirit in the gathering his seed from the ends of the earth and for the turning of many to righteousness and such shall shine as the stars in the firmament of Heaven when as the false and deceitful witnesses shall be turned into darkness because their testimony is not able to endure the tryal for the Lords House must be built with tryed stones that the winds of persecutions cannot blow it down and upon such wil his light arise who when they are tryed are found faithful and who are counted worthy to bear a testimony in this work though it be through sufferings in this day when the powers of the Earth have set themselves to wear out the Saints of the most High God by changing times and Laws whereby to restrain the liberty of the Lords people whose worship stands in the spirit and in the truth Times they have changed by a Law in making the first day of the week to be their Sabbath but that day is more profaned then any of the seven And Laws they have changed to get a ground to stop the word of the Lord from having free course and free utterance among the people These seek to scatter the power of the holy people and to cast the truth to the ground by their acts of cruelty and decrees of unrighteousnesse and by a tollerating cruelty and oppression among a company of Priests which are worse then those in Hosea's dayes who then were As a Troop of Robbers that wait for a man even so the company of Priests murther in the way by consent Hos. 6. 9. and saith the
