do_v condemn_v unrighteousness_n and_o bring_v war_n and_o a_o sword_n upon_o earth_n as_o christ_n doctrine_n do_v and_o this_o be_v the_o good_a where_o we_o come_v many_o be_v change_v from_o wickedness_n rudeness_n and_o ungodliness_n to_o live_v sober_o righteous_o and_o pure_o in_o this_o present_a world_n without_o offence_n towards_o god_n and_o man_n for_o to_o say_v we_o make_v people_n both_o to_o hate_v godly_a teacher_n and_o people_n this_o be_v utter_o false_a for_o we_o endeavour_v to_o bring_v people_n to_o the_o true_a teacher_n christ_n jesus_n and_o to_o have_v fellowship_n with_o the_o saint_n it_o be_v true_a in_o the_o world_n our_o doctrine_n do_v make_v division_n and_o do_v set_v a_o man_n at_o variance_n and_o do_v set_v father_n against_o son_n and_o son_n against_o father_n even_o as_o christ_n do_v and_o his_o doctrine_n so_o he_o say_v we_o do_v but_o again_o he_o belie_v we_o in_o say_v we_o bring_v people_n into_o confusion_n and_o abominable_a error_n or_o that_o we_o cast_v people_n into_o a_o malicious_a mood_n or_o tincture_n of_o bitterness_n this_o be_v also_o false_a and_o this_o be_v my_o answer_n he_o that_o do_v the_o will_n of_o our_o father_n know_v of_o our_o doctrine_n whether_o we_o be_v of_o god_n or_o of_o ourselves_o and_o to_o all_o the_o world_n beside_o we_o be_v unknown_a and_o desire_n to_o be_v manifest_a to_o every_o man_n conscience_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o not_o to_o that_o wisdom_n which_o be_v of_o this_o world_n and_o though_o he_o scorn_v at_o such_o who_o be_v make_v to_o cast_v off_o their_o point_n and_o lace_n yet_o be_v not_o this_o more_o than_o any_o fruit_n that_o his_o doctrine_n have_v bring_v forth_o for_o as_o we_o do_v so_o do_v the_o apostle_n exhort_v against_o all_o superfluity_n of_o naughtiness_n as_o point_n and_o lace_n be_v and_o it_o seem_v that_o such_o as_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n become_v a_o prey_n to_o such_o wicked_a man_n slander_v and_o scornful_a tongue_n and_o a_o manner_n to_o make_v book_n of_o to_o send_v into_o the_o world_n 17._o his_o seventeen_o reason_n say_v he_o it_o be_v no_o great_a encouragement_n to_o we_o to_o turn_v quaker_n when_o we_o consider_v who_o be_v their_o follower_n very_o few_o experience_a sober_a christian_n turn_v to_o they_o say_v he_o but_o such_o who_o be_v ignorant_a and_o ungrounded_a and_o raw_a professor_n etc._n etc._n ans._n to_o this_o i_o answer_v let_v no_o man_n take_v encouragement_n from_o without_o to_o turn_v quaker_n or_o to_o own_o the_o way_n of_o god_n salvation_n but_o let_v every_o one_o feel_v a_o measure_n of_o god_n in_o his_o own_o heart_n convert_v he_o from_o sin_n unto_o righteousness_n and_o draw_v his_o mind_n from_o the_o vanity_n and_o hypocrisy_n of_o this_o world_n to_o the_o truth_n and_o singleness_n of_o heart_n and_o he_o appear_v to_o be_v of_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o pharisee_n who_o say_v none_o but_o a_o company_n of_o poor_a people_n which_o be_v accurse_v follow_v christ_n and_o so_o say_v he_o in_o effect_n none_o but_o such_o as_o be_v ignorant_a and_o such_o like_a but_o what_o if_o there_o be_v not_o any_o other_o but_o such_o who_o own_v the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n this_o be_v a_o confirmation_n of_o it_o rather_o than_o a_o cause_n of_o object_v against_o it_o when_o such_o who_o be_v ignorant_a be_v bring_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n but_o yet_o his_o word_n be_v false_a for_o it_o be_v know_v that_o very_o many_o honest_a humble_a sober_a man_n and_o people_n who_o have_v all_o their_o day_n be_v sincere_a towards_o god_n in_o what_o they_o have_v know_v of_o he_o have_v and_o do_v own_o we_o and_o indeed_o all_o that_o ever_o own_v god_n and_o salvation_n shall_v own_v we_o for_o we_o be_v of_o god_n and_o he_o that_o be_v of_o god_n hear_v we_o and_o the_o whole_a world_n lie_v in_o wickedness_n and_o such_o as_o be_v self-conceited_a and_o in_o pride_n and_o wise_a in_o their_o own_o eye_n and_o in_o the_o wickedness_n of_o the_o world_n such_o be_v his_o follower_n and_o not_o we_o though_o he_o false_o say_v it_o for_o such_o as_o follow_v christ_n have_v we_o fellowship_n with_o and_o not_o with_o such_o as_o walk_v in_o darkness_n 18._o his_o eighteen_o reason_n say_v he_o it_o be_v a_o evident_a judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o these_o people_n that_o turn_v quaker_n and_o a_o punishment_n for_o their_o former_a sin_n etc._n etc._n ans._n to_o this_o i_o answer_v the_o lord_n god_n his_o angel_n and_o all_o his_o saint_n and_o servant_n i_o call_v to_o record_v against_o thou_o and_o they_o all_o shall_v witness_v that_o it_o be_v mercy_n and_o not_o judgement_n upon_o they_o that_o own_v the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o they_o that_o own_v the_o quaker_n in_o truth_n and_o sincerity_n have_v and_o do_v witness_v a_o remission_n of_o their_o former_a sin_n and_o forgiveness_n of_o they_o by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o not_o a_o punishment_n for_o they_o and_o richard_n baxter_n may_v please_v himself_o and_o some_o other_o with_o his_o reasonless_a reason_n as_o these_o be_v yet_o they_o be_v not_o worthy_a of_o the_o name_n of_o reason_n they_o be_v so_o senseless_a and_o utter_o false_a and_o though_o he_o rail_v against_o the_o anabaptist_n as_o well_o as_o against_o we_o yet_o any_o man_n who_o eye_n be_v open_a see_v his_o folly_n and_o turn_v it_o upon_o his_o own_o head_n and_o he_o may_v conceit_v himself_o in_o these_o thing_n for_o a_o moment_n but_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n will_v declare_v it_o otherwise_o and_o that_o upon_o we_o mercy_n and_o peace_n shall_v be_v and_o not_o judgement_n nor_o wrath_n 19_o his_o nineteen_o reason_n say_v he_o they_o be_v already_o in_o division_n among_o themselves_o as_o the_o contention_n between_o nayler_n and_o fox_n and_o their_o follower_n do_v show_v to_o this_o i_o answer_v though_o a_o occasion_n may_v come_v and_o be_v take_v against_o the_o truth_n yet_o woe_n unto_o he_o by_o who_o it_o come_v and_o to_o they_o who_o do_v receive_v it_o for_o the_o testimony_n of_o truth_n abide_v for_o ever_o but_o as_o about_o that_o division_n he_o speak_v of_o it_o have_v be_v answer_v by_o writing_n several_a time_n and_o now_o i_o say_v it_o happen_v but_o as_o a_o trial_n to_o the_o lord_n people_n and_o not_o to_o destroy_v they_o though_o the_o enemy_n boast_v himself_o because_o of_o it_o yet_o the_o lord_n know_v how_o to_o preserve_v he_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o temptation_n but_o these_o thing_n be_v now_o at_o a_o end_n though_o a_o temptation_n present_v itself_o yet_o it_o overcome_v not_o and_o truth_n be_v the_o same_o and_o the_o testimony_n thereof_o do_v never_o change_v and_o all_o these_o refuge_n which_o the_o wicked_a fly_n unto_o shall_v not_o cover_v they_o when_o the_o lord_n appear_v 20._o his_o twenty_o reason_n and_o say_v he_o to_o make_v all_o their_o delusion_n more_o odious_a wickedness_n they_o father_n it_o upon_o the_o holy_a ghost_n etc._n etc._n ans._n his_o word_n be_v utter_o false_a yet_o we_o say_v we_o have_v receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o teach_v we_o and_o lead_v we_o into_o all_o truth_n and_o by_o it_o be_v we_o lead_v out_o of_o all_o wickedness_n and_o delusion_n and_o all_o wicked_a speech_n which_o he_o brand_v we_o withal_o and_o these_o thing_n be_v his_o own_o for_o he_o be_v see_v to_o be_v in_o delusion_n and_o odious_a wickedness_n and_o wicked_a speech_n and_o say_v he_o they_o speak_v against_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o cry_v down_o the_o love_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o against_o the_o ordinance_n of_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n to_o this_o i_o have_v answer_v in_o the_o love_n and_o union_n with_o all_o the_o saint_n we_o be_v and_o minister_n of_o christ_n but_o against_o hypocrisy_n we_o declare_v such_o who_o profess_v what_o they_o be_v not_o and_o use_v their_o tongue_n and_o say_v the_o lord_n say_v when_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o speak_v to_o they_o and_o sprinkle_v infant_n and_o say_v it_o be_v ●n_v ordinance_n of_o christ_n and_o sing_v david_n experience_n in_o rhyme_n and_o meet_a with_o many_o other_o thing_n which_o the_o priest_n have_v in_o their_o practice_n such_o thing_n we_o deny_v to_o be_v ordinance_n of_o christ_n and_o they_o to_o be_v minister_n of_o christ_n which_o do_v practice_n they_o and_o this_o we_o do_v say_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n but_o that_o we_o prenounce_v damnation_n against_o god_n church_n and_o holy_a servant_n this_o be_v false_a again_o and_o be_v but_o the_o fulfil_n the_o number_n of_o his_o lie_n and_o though_o he_o charge_v we_o secret_o with_o preach_v another_o gospel_n then_o that_o which_o paul_n preach_v be_v false_a and_o
