A56313	A modest account from Pensylvania of the principal differences in point of doctrine, between George Keith, and those of the people called Quakers, from whom he separated : shewing his great declension, and inconsistency with himself therein : recommended to the serious consideration of those who are turned aside, aud [sic] joyned in his schism.	Pusey, Caleb, 1650?-1727.	1696 (1696)	Wing P4248; ESTC R40087	25,043	138

nor_o have_v not_o leave_v it_o to_o man_n industry_n to_o search_v after_o they_o but_o deliver_v they_o to_o we_o in_o plain_a express_a scripture-word_n and_o term_n over_o and_o over_o again_o as_o in_o respect_n of_o many_o of_o they_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o why_o be_v it_o that_o the_o scripture_n be_v so_o full_a and_o large_a in_o their_o testimony_n to_o the_o doctrine_n

contrary_a to_o the_o principle_n of_o the_o church_n they_o belong_v to_o both_o among_o we_o you_o and_o other_o yet_o certain_o in_o this_o case_n i_o very_o believe_v the_o fault_n have_v be_v chief_o in_o you_o for_o pervert_v our_o word_n now_o whereas_o you_o allege_v the_o papist_n say_v they_o keep_v to_o scripture_n word_n when_o they_o say_v from_o christ_n word_n this_o be_v my_o

sense_n christ_n call_v the_o bread_n of_o the_o passover_n his_o body_n in_o that_o sense_n it_o be_v his_o body_n even_o as_o in_o what_o sense_n he_o call_v himself_o a_o door_n and_o a_o vine_n in_o that_o sense_n he_o be_v a_o door_n and_o a_o vine_n and_o so_o we_o may_v conclude_v without_o any_o danger_n of_o pervert_v the_o text_n or_o run_v into_o error_n about_o that_o or_o such_o like_a text_n of_o scripture_n but_o if_o some_o of_o you_o think_v yet_o that_o it_o be_v not_o safe_a enough_o to_o express_v our_o faith_n in_o the_o express_a word_n of_o scripture_n and_o shall_v
