A90808	The holy scripture clearing it self of scandals: or, An answer to a book written by Richard Farnworth, who is commonly called a Quaker, bearing this title, Truth cleared of scandals. In this answer, you have the substance of a dispute at Harliston in Staffordshire, between Richard Faruworth [sic] and the author, in the yeer 1654. Written by Tho. Pollard, a member of the Church of Christ, gathered in, and about, Leichfield. Whereunto is added, Certain considerations and queries concerning those people called the Quakers; with desire of an answer. As also, a postscript, manifesting their folly in pretending a necessity of using the terms thee and thou to a single person. / By Henry Haggar, a servant of Jesus Christ, and of the congregation of his saints.	Pollard, Thomas, fl. 1655.; Haggar, Henry.	1655 (1655)	Wing P2775; Thomason E857_8; Thomason E842_10; ESTC R206619	43,888	64

here_o thou_o must_v needs_o judge_v very_o many_o that_o thou_o do_v never_o know_v or_o hear_v of_o and_o so_o be_v guilty_a of_o this_o sin_n in_o speak_v evil_a of_o they_o that_o thou_o know_v

28.26_o the_o second_o thing_n that_o this_o farnworth_n affirm_v that_o when_o paul_n speak_v those_o word_n in_o the_o seven_o of_o the_o roman_n where_o he_o cry_v out_o of_o a_o body_n of_o

the_o gospel_n and_o so_o eminent_a a_o apostle_n of_o christ_n and_o unconvert_v here_o let_v we_o try_v by_o the_o scripture_n whether_o it_o be_v so_o or_o no_o first_o see_v act_n 9.5_o 6._o when_o the_o voice_n from_o heaven_n which_o voice_n be_v christ_n that_o say_v to_o he_o saul_n saul_n why_o persecute_v thou_o i_o he_o tremble_v and_o astonish_v say_v lord_n what_o will_v thou_o

in_o the_o synagogue_n to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o further_o see_v vers_fw-la 27._o of_o this_o nine_o chapter_n where_o it_o be_v make_v plain_a to_o the_o apostle_n and_o he_o be_v with_o

it_o evident_a both_o in_o what_o he_o do_v and_o suffer_v that_o he_o be_v convert_v and_o further_o see_v rom._n 1.1_o paul_n a_o servant_n of_o jesus_n christ_n then_o sure_o convert_v else_o no_o

his_o mind_n before_o conversion_n be_v only_o to_o persecute_v the_o church_n and_o people_n of_o god_n and_o here_o we_o will_v bring_v his_o own_o word_n to_o witness_v 1_o cor._n 15.9_o i_o say_v paul_n be_o the_o least_o of_o the_o apostle_n not_o worthy_a to_o be_v call_v a_o apostle_n mind_n the_o reason_n because_o i_o persecute_v the_o church_n of_o god_n by_o all_o which_o we_o may_v
