A77832	A vindication of the book called, Some Gospel-truths opened; according to the Scriptures, and the opposition made against it by Edward Borrough, a professed Quaker, (but proved an enemie to the truth) examined and confuted by the word of God. And also, the things that were then laid down, and declared to the world by me, are a second-time born witness to, according to truth: with the answer of Edward Burrough to the quæries then laid down in my book reproved. And also, a plain answer to his quæries, given in simplicitie of soul; and is now also presented to the world, or who else may read, or hear them; to the end (if God will) that truth may be discovered thereby. / by John Bunyan ...	Bunyan, John, 1628-1688.; Burrough, Edward, 1634-1662.; Bunyan, John, 1628-1688. Some gospel-truths opened according to the Scriptures.	1657 (1657)	Wing B5606; ESTC R170889	81,202	76

shall_v clear_o prove_v first_o because_o thou_o deny_v that_o redemption_n be_v wrought_v out_o for_o sinner_n by_o the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n on_o the_o cross_n or_o tree_n on_o mount_n calvary_n

to_o these_o word_n why_o do_v the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n hang_v on_o the_o cross_n on_o mount_n calvary_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o his_o child_n thou_o say_v because_o they_o wicked_o judge_v he_o to_o be_v a_o blasphemer_n friend_n i_o do_v not_o ask_v thou_o why_o the_o jew_n do_v put_v he_o to_o death_n but_o why_o be_v he_o crucify_v there_o for_o the_o sin_n of_o his_o child_n but_o thou_o
