shall_v find_v you_o to_o do_v the_o like_a for_o it_o do_v not_o stand_v with_o a_o right_a quaker_n principle_n to_o believe_v that_o the_o same_o flesh_n and_o bone_n of_o christ_n which_o suffer_v

and_o be_v both_o in_o heaven_n together_o if_o so_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o the_o quaker_n shall_v get_v christ_n within_o they_o for_o if_o christ_n be_v a_o distinct_a person_n of_o himself_o of_o substance_n flesh_n and_o bone_n though_o a_o spiritual_a body_n now_o in_o heaven_n how_o come_v christ_n to_o get_v his_o spiritual_a body_n into_o every_o quaker_n body_n and_o every_o man_n body_n else_o for_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o the_o heaven_n shall_v contain_v he_o until_o the_o restitution_n of_o all_o thing_n mean_v that_o body_n of_o flesh_n and_o bone_n so_o that_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n or_o his_o essence_n can_v be_v in_o this_o world_n at_o all_o much_o less_o in_o the_o quaker_n body_n nay_o he_o be_v not_o in_o i_o though_o he_o have_v choose_v i_o to_o be_v his_o messenger_n to_o declare_v what_o he_o be_v in_o his_o form_n and_o nature_n as_o have_v be_v abundant_o declare_v in_o our_o write_n therefore_o do_v not_o you_o say_v that_o it_o be_v a_o slander_n and_o a_o lie_n for_o i_o to_o say_v that_o you_o be_v the_o very_a absolute_a spirit_n of_o antichrist_n that_o do_v deny_v both_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n for_o though_o you_o talk_v of_o a_o christ_n and_o of_o his_o be_v the_o express_a image_n of_o his_o father_n person_n and_o of_o a_o holy_a ghost_n because_o you_o read_v of_o such_o thing_n in_o scripture_n which_o be_v other_o man_n word_n so_o you_o read_v of_o they_o have_v jumble_v the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n together_o and_o so_o in_o stead_n of_o one_o person_n you_o have_v get_v three_o person_n and_o yet_o never_o a_o person_n for_o i_o be_o sure_a when_o i_o talk_v with_o john_n perrot_n about_o god_n he_o can_v find_v never_o a_o person_n but_o a_o infinite_a spirit_n without_o a_o body_n or_o person_n at_o all_o all_o the_o quaker_n that_o ever_o i_o have_v have_v to_o do_v withal_o which_o have_v be_v a_o great_a many_o i_o can_v never_o find_v any_o quaker_n to_o own_o god_n to_o be_v a_o person_n in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o man_n but_o a_o infinite_a spirit_n that_o fill_v heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o all_o place_n and_o all_o thing_n and_o so_o do_v the_o pope_n and_o all_o other_o opinion_n that_o be_v which_o do_v show_v the_o darkness_n of_o the_o quaker_n and_o the_o pope_n and_o all_o other_o for_o if_o god_n be_v a_o person_n in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o man_n as_o i_o be_o sure_a he_o be_v for_o i_o do_v acknowledge_v no_o other_o god_n but_o the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n who_o be_v a_o distinct_a body_n of_o flesh_n and_o bone_n of_o his_o own_o how_o then_o can_v he_o fill_v heaven_n and_o earth_n with_o his_o presence_n and_o get_v into_o the_o quaker_n body_n and_o all_o other_o people_n body_n too_o and_o yet_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n above_o the_o star_n which_o heaven_n must_v retain_v he_o until_o the_o last_o day_n from_o this_o body_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o only_a god_n have_v i_o power_n over_o all_o

you_o say_v that_o you_o do_v own_o christ_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n he_o be_v of_o abraham_n which_o be_v blasphemy_n to_o say_v it_o be_v quite_o contrary_a to_o the_o scripture_n for_o those_o jew_n that_o persecute_a christ_n be_v according_a to_o the_o flesh_n the_o child_n of_o abraham_n therefore_o it_o be_v they_o say_v we_o have_v abraham_n for_o our_o father_n and_o never_o be_v in_o bondage_n to_o any_o for_o indeed_o all_o those_o that_o be_v the_o child_n of_o abraham_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n be_v the_o child_n of_o the_o devil_n or_o of_o the_o serpent_n but_o all_o those_o that_o be_v the_o child_n of_o isaac_n or_o the_o child_n of_o the_o promise_n which_o be_v the_o seed_n of_o faith_n which_o be_v the_o child_n of_o abraham_n according_a to_o the_o spirit_n and_o so_o according_a to_o the_o faith_n of_o abraham_n of_o which_o christ_n come_v and_o so_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n may_v say_v true_o they_o be_v bone_n of_o his_o bone_n and_o flesh_n of_o his_o flesh_n because_o the_o seed_n or_o spirit_n of_o faith_n which_o abraham_n the_o father_n of_o the_o faithful_a have_v in_o he_o live_v in_o our_o flesh_n and_o bone_n and_o we_o may_v be_v say_v indeed_o to_o be_v bone_n of_o his_o bone_n and_o flesh_n of_o his_o

flesh_n and_o so_o call_v his_o brethren_n because_o we_o be_v bear_v not_o of_o the_o will_n of_o man_n nor_o of_o the_o flesh_n but_o of_o water_n and_o of_o the_o spirit_n which_o spirit_n do_v lie_v secret_o hide_v in_o the_o water_n be_v the_o motion_n of_o peace_n that_o do_v arise_v from_o the_o seed_n which_o be_v call_v the_o spirit_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o quaker_n christ_n be_v according_a to_o the_o flesh_n of_o abraham_n and_o so_o indeed_o they_o be_v bone_n of_o his_o bone_n and_o flesh_n of_o his_o flesh_n for_o indeed_o they_o know_v no_o other_o christ_n but_o according_a to_o the_o flesh_n that_o be_v according_a to_o the_o seed_n of_o reason_n for_o in_o scripture_n the_o seed_n of_o reason_n be_v call_v the_o flesh_n from_o whence_o the_o motion_n of_o sin_n do_v arise_v which_o be_v call_v the_o motion_n of_o the_o flesh_n which_o i_o have_v large_o unfold_v in_o the_o interpretation_n of_o the_o 11_o chapter_n of_o the_o revelation_n for_o the_o scripture_n take_v no_o notice_n of_o the_o outward_a bodily_a flesh_n but_o as_o the_o two_o seed_n do_v operate_v and_o work_v in_o man_n reason_n be_v call_v the_o flesh_n and_o faith_n be_v call_v the_o spirit_n wherefore_o it_o be_v say_v let_v christ_n dwell_v in_o your_o heart_n by_o faith_n and_o so_o every_o one_o that_o do_v true_o believe_v in_o that_o flesh_n and_o bone_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v now_o live_v do_v eat_v his_o flesh_n and_o so_o christ_n dwell_v in_o his_o heart_n by_o faith_n and_o not_o in_o his_o person_n and_o essence_n as_o the_o quaker_n do_v vain_o imagine_v for_o they_o make_v no_o distinction_n between_o the_o person_n and_o essence_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n which_o light_n of_o christ_n be_v one_o thing_n and_o his_o person_n another_o as_o the_o body_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v one_o thing_n and_o the_o light_n that_o shine_v from_o it_o be_v another_o and_o so_o according_a to_o the_o flesh_n that_o be_v according_a to_o the_o seed_n of_o reason_n the_o quaker_n be_v bone_n of_o his_o bone_n and_o flesh_n of_o his_o flesh_n and_o they_o be_v the_o child_n of_o abraham_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n as_o their_o imaginary_a christ_n be_v for_o all_o abraham_n child_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n be_v the_o child_n of_o cain_n who_o be_v the_o father_n of_o most_o part_n of_o the_o quaker_n and_o in_o this_o

for_o none_o can_v interpret_v scripture_n true_o but_o myself_o neither_o do_v any_o man_n in_o the_o world_n true_o know_v christ_n nor_o the_o father_n nor_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o myself_o
