A70157	A just defence and vindication of Gospel ministers and Gospel ordinances against the Quakers many false accusations, slanders and reproaches. In ansvver to John Horwood his letter, and E.B. his book, called, A just and lawful tryal of the ministers and teachers of this age, and several others. Proving the ministers calling and maintenance just and lawful, and the doctrine of perfection by free justification, preached by them, agreeable to the scriptures. VVith the Quakers objections answered. And the Quakers perfection by hearkning to, and obeying a light within them, proved contrary to the scriptures. And their practices in ten particulars proved contrary to the commands and examples of Christ and his apostles. By a lover of gospel ministers and gospel ordinances.

and_o hold_v concern_v this_o great_a point_n in_o controversy_n of_o be_v perfect_o free_v from_o sin_n and_o that_o according_a to_o what_o i_o do_v believe_v concern_v the_o same_o according_a to_o that_o measure_n of_o light_n within_o i_o according_a to_o the_o scripture_n and_o i_o pray_v god_n to_o open_v your_o eye_n that_o you_o may_v be_v able_a both_o to_o see_v and_o believe_v the_o

and_o lively_a faith_n believe_v on_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o life_n and_o salvation_n be_v perfect_o free_v from_o all_o sin_n here_o by_o justification_n and_o that_o alone_a by_o the_o

his_o death_n resurrection_n and_o intercession_n and_o make_v perperfect_o righteous_a by_o his_o righteousness_n wherefore_o i_o shall_v plain_o prove_v both_o these_o to_o be_v by_o justification_n in_o and_o by_o christ_n alone_o according_a to_o that_o of_o the_o apostle_n be_v justify_v free_o by_o his_o grace_n 39_o through_o the_o redemption_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n and_o be_v it_o
