Christ c. Which is as large an Excommunication as the Pope himself or his Infallible Council ever pretended to for they have not only by their Bull of Excommunication cut him off as they dream from the fellowship of the Quakers in London Wales c. but off from the whole Church of Christ And as this is a great arrogancy in the Quakers and presumption too so do they thereby differ from the French Protestants And in regard this their Bull of Excommunication was denounced against G. Keith for that he did not effectually call in his Books writ against the errors of the Quakers and thereby clear the body of the Quakers from those errors charged upon the Quakers in Pensilvania which in Conscience he could not do in regard he knew them Guilty thereof This is a plain demonstration that W. Pen's averring that they never endeavour to hinder the sale of their Adversaries Books is a great untruth See the next proof Instance III. In the year 1693. I put forth a Book entituled New Rome Arraigned c. which the Quakers by an Officer seized and carried 60 of them to a Quakers house and Indicted me in the Old Baily London An Abstract of the said Bill of Indictment is as followeth London ss At the General Quarter Sessions of the Peace holden for the City of London at the Guild-Hall of the said City on Monday the ninth of October 1693. before Sir J.

And now passing by most of the form I come to set forth the Aggravating terms of their said Indictment c. Ut supra A certain Bill of Indictment against one Francis Bugg then and there brought before B. B. G. B c. Jury-men then and there sworn and charged to enquire for the said King and Queen and the body of the said City And was returned by the Jury thus Indorsed Ignoramus Which Bill follows in these words The Jury for our Lord the King and Queen do present upon their Oaths That Francis Bugg late of London Yeoman being a person of an unquiet and turbulent disposition devising practising and intending falsly unlawfully seditiously and maliciously Geo. Whitehead Ja. Park Ben. Antrobus Sam. Waldenfeild c. faithful Subjects of our Lord and Lady the King and Queen now of this their Kingdom of England extremely to scandalize to pr●cur● and bring to Infamy and Reproach amongst their Neighbours and other Subjects of our said King and Queen As also to move stir up and cause discords tumults and miser●●● slaughters between the Subjects of this Kingdom of England on the 18th day of September in the 5th year of our Lord and Lady c.

Well however as this shews what the Quakers would do had they power so it is a sufficient proof that they did endeavour to hinder the Sale of my Books also this their indicting me shows what an envious and lying spirit they G. Whitehead and his Brethren are of SECT XVIII AS I have shewed how contrary the Principles and Practices of the Quakers are to the Principles and Practices of the French Protestants and indeed to all other Christians I am now about to shew their disparity in the Articles of their Faith setting forth an Abstract of the French Protestants Confession of Faith containing 40 in number which was presented to several French Kings as judging it a most proper way to obtain their Liberty as at large in the 1st Volume of J. Quicks History stiled Synodicon in Galia Reformata p. 6. to 15. And likewise what the Quakers believe if they believe as they write for by reason they have not given forth distinct Articles of their Faith like the Christian Churches in all ages I must collect some select passages out of their Books in one Column and the French Protestants in another viz. The Quakers Faith A Declaration to all the world of our Faith and what we believe who are called Quakers Concerning God and Christ Burrows works p. 439. We believe there is one only true God who is a Spirit and his presence filleth heaven and earth and he is eternal and everlasting the Creator and Preserver of all things Sauls Errand to Damascus c. p. 8. He that hath the same spirit that raised up Jesus from the dead is equal with God The Sandy Foundation p. 12 16.
