With a true answer of what the Baptist teachers objected against the servant of the Lord who in scorn is called a Quaker, and known to the world by the name of Iohn Moon, in several places in VVales, both in Radnorshire, and Breck-nockshire, whose names are these. Hugh Evans, John Price, Daniel Penry, Reese Davies, John Prosser, Evans Oliver, and Vavasor Powel, who are called ministers of the gospel, but are found to be enemies to it. Some of Vavasor Powel's doctrine tryed, and made manifest by the light. And also some queries given forth, and are to be answered by them that lives in observations.

Father ye will do he was a murderer from the beginning and abode not in the truth because there is no truth in him so all people consider and mind that light which lighteth every man that comes into the world that by it you may come to be lead out of darkness to know the light of life but if you deny the light which convinces of sin out of darkness you cannot come and you will remaine ignorant of the truth and though man declare the truth unto you ye cannot believe As the servant of the Lord was moved of the Lord to go unto on of the Baptist meetings to declare as he was moved of the Lord unto the people and said that all worship that stood in the will of man was abomination unto the Lord and said where two or three were gethered togeteer in the name of the Lord he would be in the midest of them and I declared and said that Christ is the light of the world and lighteth every man that comes into the world and it is that which shews man sin and shews the drunkards he should not be drunk and the lyer he should not lye and the proud he reproves then one of the Baptists hearing me cryed out and said prove prove thy doctrine for I deny it then I said unto him if thou canst disprove me do and if thou canst not believe me and I said dost thou cry out against me because I declare against pride and thou being an upholder of it then he said wherein am I an upholder of it then I said thou art on who goeth about to sell ribaning and lace and how canst thou have a face to speake to the people and say thou art one who declares the Gospel then he answered and said that ribaning and lace is to adorn the Gospel then I said the same the drunkard and the swearer is adorned withall now people consider what the Baptist Gospel is adornd withall for the same the whore of Babilon is adornd with but this I say that the Gospel of Christ is the power of God unto salvation unto every one that believes it is adornd with righteousness and now herein you may se the defference betweene the Baptists Gospel and the Gospel of Christ and the same Baptist said that there is nothing that is pure of God in every mans conscience and he bade me prove that there is some thing which is pure of God in every mans conscience and he bade me prove that there is something which is pure of GOD in every Mans conscience and this Scripture I bring to prove it for the grace of God that brings salvation hath apeared to all men and this is that which is pure for there is nothing that Tit. ● 11. brings salvation but that which is of God as the Scripture declares that was the true light which lighteth every man 1 John 2. 9. that cometh into the world and this is that which convinces the world of sin the true light which shines in darkness Vers 5. and darkness comprehends it not and now peopel this I say there is but that conscience which is purged and that conscience which is defiled as the Scripture declares Christ Heb. 9. 14. through the eternal spirit offered himselfe without spot to God purge your consciences from dead works to serve the living God and that conscience which is defiled is the conscience of the wicked and Christ came to call them to repentance which defiled the conscience and that which is defiled is darkness and there the true light shineth and now all people that reads this read it with an understanding and se if the profession be not one with the profane for many more words was betwixt them and me which is not worth the mentioning in so much that they said that the heart of man is always deceitfull and herein by their own words it doth apeare that neither their profession nor their possession doth clense their hearts from sin so all them that would know the remission of sin own that vvhich convinces of sin vvhich is the son of God vvho sets free that freedom you may all come to know Evan Oliver a Baptist said these words that God and his grace is not both on An.
