A77227	The Quakers quaking principles examined and refuted in a briefe answer to some erroneous tenets held forth by James Naylor in his answers unto Mr Baxter, and some others that have publikely opposed that blacke spirit in the deluded Quakers. Wherein is also included a serious admonition, how wee ought to behave our selves towards the ministers of the gospell, in respect of communicating unto them; and for giving to the poore, so as the Gospell requires: and to beware of covetousnesse, and the effects thereof, least wee be left of God, and delivered up unto strong delusions, and a blasphemous spirit instead of the spirit of God. The heads of the whole discourse are also premised. / Written by Ellis Bradshavve.	Bradshaw, Ellis.	1656 (1656)	Wing B4147; Thomason E869_1; ESTC R207737	57,239	71

word_n of_o god_n 3_o assertion_n to_o wit_n what_o ever_o christ_n have_v speak_v who_o be_v the_o essential_a word_n be_v also_o the_o word_n of_o god_n reason_n first_o because_o he_o be_v the_o

god_n word_n and_o they_o that_o be_v christ_n sheep_n know_v his_o voice_n and_o obey_v and_o follow_v he_o but_o some_o therefore_o hear_v they_o not_o because_o they_o be_v not_o of_o god_n and_o
