A38688	The Eternal gospel once more testified unto and vindicated against the ignorance, or malice of the bishops and teachers of the now Church of England : this book proving against their doctrine that the Holy Ghost is not ceased, but is still given to all the faithful and to some in the same measure as the Apostles and Disciples of Christ had it ...		1681 (1681)	Wing E3365; ESTC R23873	92,034	226
