the_o scripture_n and_o ministry_n which_o the_o quaker_n make_v so_o light_a of_o etc._n etc._n to_o this_o i_o answer_v this_o be_v as_o false_a as_o the_o rest_n for_o with_o all_o the_o saint_n that_o ever_o be_v upon_o earth_n both_o in_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n we_o agree_v with_o they_o and_o as_o for_o the_o people_n sake_n of_o england_n i_o wish_v his_o word_n be_v true_a and_o that_o they_o have_v indeed_o find_v a_o renew_a light_n and_o life_n by_o this_o ministry_n but_o though_o he_o may_v boast_v of_o it_o now_o in_o the_o day_n of_o god_n righteous_a judgement_n it_o shall_v be_v find_v otherwise_o when_o it_o shall_v be_v try_v that_o the_o renew_n have_v be_v but_o in_o form_n and_o appearance_n from_o one_o likeness_n to_o another_o and_o not_o a_o renew_n from_o death_n to_o life_n and_o though_o there_o have_v be_v something_o of_o god_n sometime_o appear_v a_o zeal_n and_o a_o desire_n after_o he_o in_o the_o ministry_n of_o england_n in_o time_n past_a yet_o from_o this_o day_n have_v the_o lord_n forsake_v they_o and_o such_o as_o be_v sober_a and_o sincere_a in_o what_o be_v make_v manifest_a be_v now_o become_v reviler_n and_o reproacher_n slanderer_n and_o persecutor_n of_o the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o from_o henceforth_o shall_v they_o not_o boast_v of_o many_o be_v convert_v by_o they_o from_o sin_n unto_o the_o way_n of_o righteousness_n but_o further_a he_o say_v we_o tell_v the_o people_n that_o their_o ministry_n do_v the_o people_n no_o good_a and_o none_o be_v the_o better_a for_o it_o if_o we_o do_v we_o tell_v they_o true_a and_o though_o he_o say_v the_o experience_n of_o many_o thousand_o do_v confute_v this_o yet_o say_v i_o the_o experience_n of_o ten_o thousand_o time_n so_o many_o more_o shall_v confirm_v it_o it_o be_v true_a there_o may_v be_v thousand_o like_o himself_o which_o will_v not_o stumble_v to_o belie_v their_o own_o soul_n as_o he_o have_v do_v of_o we_o yet_o betwixt_o he_o and_o i_o in_o this_o matter_n god_n shall_v be_v our_o judge_n who_o have_v not_o send_v this_o ministry_n and_o yet_o it_o have_v run_v therefore_o it_o do_v not_o nor_o shall_v not_o profit_v the_o people_n at_o all_o he_o say_v it_o be_v quite_o contrary_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o saint_n to_o damn_v and_o reproach_v the_o saint_n and_o call_v they_o the_o child_n of_o the_o devil_n this_o be_v true_a but_o it_o be_v not_o contrary_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o saint_n to_o reprove_v hypocrite_n such_o as_o profess_v that_o which_o they_o do_v not_o enjoy_v and_o speak_v that_o which_o they_o have_v not_o receive_v from_o the_o lord_n but_o steal_v from_o other_o man_n word_n such_o be_v many_o of_o the_o teacher_n of_o england_n and_o it_o be_v the_o way_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n sound_o to_o reprove_v such_o and_o this_o be_v our_o way_n and_o we_o do_v not_o reproach_v the_o saint_n nor_o damn_v they_o and_o yet_o to_o the_o wicked_a which_o be_v not_o saint_n we_o dare_v not_o cry_v peace_n but_o do_v say_v the_o wicked_a and_o such_o who_o forget_v god_n shall_v be_v turn_v into_o hell_n and_o for_o this_o david_n be_v our_o example_n 14._o his_o fourteen_o reason_n he_o say_v the_o quaker_n be_v unlikely_a to_o be_v better_a than_o other_o man_n see_v they_o be_v so_o notorious_o proud_a and_o thus_o this_o pride_n do_v appear_v say_v he_o it_o be_v the_o suppose_a spirit_n as_o god_n and_o the_o extraordinary_a holiness_n and_o inspiration_n and_o ability_n that_o they_o be_v proud_a of_o and_o say_v he_o they_o proclaim_v themselves_o perfect_a without_o sin_n and_o this_o be_v the_o pride_n he_o charge_v we_o with_o etc._n etc._n to_o which_o i_o answer_v we_o say_v that_o in_o christ_n we_o be_v complete_a as_o the_o apostle_n say_v to_o the_o church_n and_o do_v not_o boast_v of_o it_o neither_o be_v proud_a of_o it_o more_o than_o the_o church_n be_v but_o in_o the_o lord_n we_o will_v golry_n and_o in_o he_o rejoice_v again_o and_o again_o and_o it_o be_v that_o which_o we_o press_v after_o and_o exhort_v all_o to_o press_v after_o to_o be_v perfect_a in_o he_o who_o take_v away_o our_o sin_n and_o give_v power_n over_o the_o temptation_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o he_o say_v we_o pretend_v to_o know_v man_n heart_n yea_o we_o do_v know_v that_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n be_v desparate_o wicked_a and_o deceitful_a above_o all_o thing_n and_o by_o man_n word_n and_o work_n we_o do_v know_v their_o heart_n to_o be_v evil_a that_o act_n and_o speak_v wickedness_n for_o out_o of_o the_o abundance_n of_o the_o heart_n the_o mouth_n speak_v and_o if_o we_o shall_v say_v we_o do_v not_o know_v man_n heart_n that_o act_n and_o speak_v wickedness_n we_o shall_v be_v liar_n but_o as_o i_o say_v what_o we_o be_v it_o be_v by_o grace_n in_o christ_n and_o we_o boast_v not_o of_o it_o in_o the_o flesh_n but_o our_o glory_v be_v only_o in_o the_o lord_n in_o spirit_n that_o our_o name_n be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n and_o as_o for_o our_o cry_n against_o deceiver_n which_o he_o so_o much_o stumble_v at_o it_o be_v but_o the_o practice_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n as_o may_v be_v read_v through_o the_o scripture_n and_o yet_o we_o do_v it_o not_o no_o more_o than_o they_o do_v in_o self-exaltation_n though_o he_o will_v charge_v we_o with_o it_o 15._o his_o fifteen_o reason_n say_v he_o they_o plain_o discover_v a_o persecute_a spirit_n why_o say_v he_o what_o man_n can_v in_o reason_n think_v but_o that_o they_o run_v up_o and_o down_o the_o world_n to_o bring_v ministry_n into_o hatred_n etc._n etc._n to_o this_o i_o answer_v little_a of_o this_o do_v appear_v that_o our_o spirit_n be_v persecute_v spirit_n for_o we_o pray_v for_o our_o enemy_n and_o do_v forgive_v they_o that_o do_v evil_o entreat_v we_o and_o render_v to_o no_o man_n evil_a for_o evil_n for_o if_o we_o have_v seek_v vengeance_n or_o prosecute_v the_o good_a law_n of_o england_n against_o those_o that_o have_v wrong_v and_o rob_v we_o and_o unjust_o cause_v we_o to_o be_v put_v in_o prison_n many_o may_v have_v deep_o suffer_v by_o true_a justice_n before_o this_o day_n if_o we_o have_v not_o forgive_v our_o enemy_n and_o bless_v they_o that_o hate_v we_o such_o have_v be_v the_o cruelty_n act_v upon_o we_o that_o many_o may_v have_v be_v arraign_v for_o felony_n if_o we_o have_v seek_v the_o prosecution_n of_o the_o good_a law_n and_o not_o forgive_v our_o enemy_n why_o but_o the_o main_a thing_n be_v because_o we_o be_v move_v to_o go_v up_o and_o down_o the_o world_n and_o declare_v against_o the_o false_a minister_n and_o hold_v forth_o that_o ministry_n and_o true_o apply_v it_o to_o many_o of_o the_o teacher_n of_o england_n but_o let_v all_o the_o world_n know_v this_o be_v not_o from_o a_o persecute_a spirit_n no_o more_o than_o isaiah_n do_v it_o and_o micha_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n who_o do_v zealous_o give_v their_o testimony_n against_o such_o as_o go_v for_o gift_n and_o reward_n as_o the_o teacher_n of_o england_n do_v but_o this_o be_v that_o which_o he_o be_v offend_v at_o and_o call_v it_o a_o persecute_a spirit_n which_o be_v not_o so_o but_o in_o love_n to_o people_n soul_n that_o they_o may_v deny_v the_o evil_a and_o follow_v the_o good_a and_o that_o our_o ancestor_n have_v persecute_v to_o death_n as_o he_o say_v this_o be_v also_o a_o lie_n and_o of_o the_o devil_n for_o our_o ancestor_n be_v the_o saint_n who_o be_v call_v of_o god_n and_o be_v not_o of_o the_o world_n even_o as_o we_o be_v not_o of_o the_o world_n and_o we_o be_v persecute_v but_o seek_v not_o to_o persecute_v any_o and_o give_v our_o witness_n faithful_o against_o this_o generation_n and_o against_o the_o sin_n both_o of_o teacher_n and_o people_n and_o this_o i_o suppose_v be_v it_o even_o our_o zeal_n for_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n against_o unrighteousness_n which_o he_o false_o call_v a_o persecute_a spirit_n 16._o his_o sixteen_o reason_n be_v some_o interrogatory_n say_v he_o what_o reasonable_a man_n shall_v turn_v quaker_n that_o see_v the_o common_a fruit_n of_o their_o doctrine_n what_o good_a do_v they_o do_v wherever_o they_o come_v but_o say_v he_o hate_v both_o godly_a teacher_n and_o people_n etc._n etc._n ans._n to_o this_o i_o answer_v the_o fruit_n of_o our_o doctrine_n be_v beget_v people_n to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o a_o convert_v they_o from_o sin_n and_o death_n and_o from_o the_o way_n and_o work_n of_o unrighteousness_n to_o be_v the_o servant_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o every_o spiritual_a man_n do_v see_v this_o to_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o our_o doctrine_n it_o
