pag._n 10._o he_o bring_v in_o john_n bunyar_n say_v it_o be_v not_o faith_n and_o work_n that_o justify_v a_o man_n before_o god_n but_o it_o be_v faith_n and_o good_a work_n which_o justify_v in_o

be_v as_o perfect_a pharisee_n jewish_a and_o popish_a as_o ever_o burrough_v in_o rome_n or_o jerusalem_n christ._n maintain_v a_o covenant_n of_o work_n justification_n by_o work_n and_o renounce_v

etc._n etc._n 2._o whereas_o g._n fox_n ask_v what_o be_v the_o work_n of_o god_n but_o to_o do_v what_o he_o say_v i_o reply_v covenant_n 1._o the_o work_n of_o god_n according_a to_o christ_n doctrine_n be_v to_o believe_v on_o he_o who_o god_n send_v it_o be_v true_a it_o be_v the_o command_n of_o god_n to_o keep_v his_o command_n but_o since_o the_o deadly_a fall_n of_o man_n none_o not_o one_o be_v able_a rom._n 3._o though_o fox_n deny_v it_o it_o be_v the_o work_n the_o great_a work_n of_o god_n to_o fly_v to_o that_o bless_a propitiation_n for_o poor_a sinner_n throughout_o the_o world_n but_o g._n fox_n can_v distinguish_v between_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n of_o justice_n and_o of_o debt_n and_o that_o of_o mercy_n and_o of_o receive_v all_o as_o a_o beggar_n and_o condemn_v rebel_n poor_a proud_a soul_n they_o know_v not_o any_o difference_n between_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n jesus_n and_o their_o own_o blood_n as_o we_o shall_v see_v afterward_o 3._o whereas_o he_o say_v that_o they_o do_v not_o god_n will_v be_v not_o justify_v in_o so_o do_v i_o answer_v therefore_o it_o follow_v ronnd_o as_o his_o conclusion_n that_o they_o that_o do_v god_n will_v be_v justify_v in_o so_o do_v that_o be_v their_o sin_n be_v pardon_v as_o david_n and_o paul_n by_o pardon_n of_o sin_n describe_v justification_n 127_o who_o see_v not_o the_o subtlety_n of_o this_o fox_n cheat_v himself_o and_o other_o with_o the_o divers_a signification_n of_o this_o latin_a word_n justification_n justification_n it_o be_v true_a a_o man_n can_v not_o be_v justify_v or_o defend_v for_o thieve_v whore_v murder_v etc._n etc._n do_v it_o follow_v therefore_o that_o they_o that_o do_v not_o steal_v whore_n murder_n etc._n etc._n by_o this_o abstain_v from_o sin_n and_o by_o this_o their_o work_n they_o obtain_v the_o pardon_n and_o stand_v by_o this_o their_o work_n legal_o right_a and_o justify_v in_o the_o court_n of_o heaven_n i_o conclude_v that_o by_o these_o hint_n a_o break_a heart_a sinner_n

so_o say_v g._n fox_n and_o all_o our_o fantastic_n out_o of_o weakness_n and_o madness_n not_o weigh_v what_o a_o person_n the_o holy_a record_n describe_v christ_n jesus_n to_o be_v protestant_n but_o as_o foolish_a child_n and_o antic_n in_o the_o lord_n mayor_n show_v they_o cry_v out_o christ_n and_o the_o spirit_n only_o for_o a_o show_n and_o colour_n i_o know_v it_o that_o the_o true_a lord_n jesus_n his_o holy_a father_n and_o holy_a spirit_n be_v as_o odious_a both_o to_o jesuit_n and_o most_o papist_n &_o quaker_n as_o the_o devil_n yea_o infinite_o more_o than_o the_o devil_n himself_o as_o with_o god_n help_v i_o have_v and_o shall_v make_v it_o as_o clear_a as_o the_o noon_n day_n sun_n o_o you_o consider_a protestant_n see_v you_o not_o how_o the_o devil_n will_v rob_v you_o of_o that_o sword_n with_o which_o christ_n jesus_n overcome_v he_o the_o holy_a scripture_n under_o the_o colour_n and_o cloak_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o quaker_n protestant_n how_o if_o the_o holy_a write_n must_v yet_o live_v why_o he_o have_v fisher_n and_o stub_n and_o pennington_n and_o bishop_n and_o other_o that_o skill_n tongue_n and_o yet_o own_o the_o

of_o tongue_n and_o history_n and_o all_o kind_n of_o knowledge_n as_o in_o bellarmine_n and_o his_o associate_n and_o follower_n and_o of_o late_a in_o those_o great_a writer_n petavius_n and_o

end_n only_o they_o talk_v of_o soul_n etc._n etc._n we_o now_o descend_v to_o the_o five_o and_o sorrowful_a point_n of_o suffer_v which_o they_o read_v position_n viz._n that_o the_o suffering_n of_o the_o quaker_n be_v no_o true_a evidence_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o their_o religion_n at_o the_o read_n of_o this_o they_o tell_v i_o that_o although_o their_o suffering_n be_v great_a in_o all_o place_n whither_o the_o lord_n have_v send_v they_o yet_o they_o make_v not_o their_o suffer_v a_o evidence_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o their_o religion_n &_o therefore_o i_o may_v have_v be_v better_o advise_v then_o to_o 175_o put_v this_o in_o among_o the_o rest_n of_o my_o lie_n and_o slander_n as_o not_o considerable_a quaker_n and_o now_o not_o worth_a the_o mention_v etc._n etc._n i_o answer_v that_o i_o understand_v what_o they_o say_v and_o i_o understand_v i_o own_o affirmation_n also_o and_o desire_v their_o patience_n also_o while_o i_o offer_v my_o proof_n to_o two_o particular_n 1._o that_o in_o their_o book_n and_o write_n etc._n etc._n they_o do_v make_v their_o suffering_n a_o great_a evidence_n to_o themselves_o and_o other_o of_o the_o truth_n of_o their_o way_n and_o spirit_n 2._o this_o their_o suffer_v be_v not_o valid_a as_o to_o the_o proof_n of_o their_o religion_n way_n and_o spirit_n to_o be_v of_o god_n so_o then_o they_o bid_v i_o prove_v it_o if_o i_o can_v i_o tell_v they_o that_o i_o can_v find_v no_o jew_n suffering_n no_o papist_n no_o protestant_n that_o do_v so_o magnify_v and_o so_o exact_o insist_v upon_o their_o suffering_n as_o the_o quaker_n do_v it_o be_v ●rue_a that_o paul_n do_v more_o particularize_v his_o suffering_n then_o other_o saint_n in_o scripture_n but_o it_o be_v also_o true_a that_o they_o be_v so_o exceed_o great_a that_o paul_n seem_v a_o none-such_a but_o beside_o that_o it_o be_v upon_o some_o great_a insulting_n of_o the_o false_a apostle_n against_o not_o only_a himself_o but_o against_o the_o truth_n of_o christ_n jesus_n neither_o of_o which_o be_v the_o quaker_n case_n beside_o the_o quaker_n suffering_n general_o be_v not_o to_o be_v compare_v with_o paul_n and_o yet_o they_o set_v down_o such_o exact_a account_n of_o every_o hour_n in_o prison_n every_o stripe_n in_o whip_v record_v every_o pound_n lose_v and_o this_o publish_v to_o the_o world_n in_o print_n as_o if_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n hang_v out_o with_o this_o inscription_n loe_o people_n these_o be_v the_o evidence_n of_o god_n holy_a truth_n and_o god_n holy_a spirit_n of_o our_o persecutor_n wickedness_n and_o our_o christian_a faith_n and_o patience_n who_o for_o his_o truth_n sake_n can_v endure_v all_o this_o i_o say_v it_o be_v not_o rational_a to_o think_v that_o man_n profess_v such_o high_a wisdom_n and_o conscience_n shall_v declare_v such_o list_n and_o catalogue_n of_o suffering_n as_o g._n bishop_n do_v to_o the_o world_n of_o the_o quaker_n suffering_n in_o n._n england_n in_o his_o first_o
