A85149 The Scriptures vindication against the Scotish contradictors. By one John Stalham, and as he saith, preacher of the Gospel at Edenborough in Scotland. And the other tiled [sic], A serious review of some principles of the Quakers; wherein error is discovered, and truth defended; by P.E. and written with a pen at Edenborough, printed in the year 1655, and a written name, as if it were the printer called Peter English, but no printed name; and thus they shuffle, but laid open to their shame, and truth in this short answer is defended and cleared, and their errour is discovered, and they ensnared. Who both have manifested their contradictions both to the Scriptures, and their own writings, and so have not the people which they call Quakers. / Published by a servant of the Lord Jesus, in Yorkeshire in England, known to the world by the name of Richard Farneworth. R. F. (Richard Farnworth), d. 1666. 1655 (1655) Wing F503; Thomason E854_9; ESTC R202120 34,303 40

spoken by the Spirit of truth which we owne and now the time is come that deceivers such as you are cannot endure sound doctrine but utters your folly to make your selves manifest what generation you are of even of him whose comming is after the working of Satan with all deceiveable of unrighteousnesse in them that perish 2 Thes 2. 2 Pet 2. Concerning Ordinances Instructing of Children and the Resurrection Praying in familyes thou sayes they say they own with reading and instructing of Children and bringing them up in the feare of the Lord and teaching according to the Apostles doctrine proved by a short Answer to 7 Priests P 19. which thou hast cited and art thou offended at this set thy conceivings that ariseth out of thy darke minde aside and thy vaine Imaginations and close to the Truth and stand not up to oppose it wilfully least thou be found one of those that sins wilfully after grace received to whom there is no more sacrifice for sin but a fearful looking for of Judgement fiery Indignation of the Lord which shall devour the Adversaries and where thou sayes they pretend to owne all that is Gods we doe owne that which is Gods free love mercy to us and all that is Gods as Baptisme the Lords Supper Church-fellowship Sabboth The flesh of Christ the resurrection and all that we owne and what thou hast cited out of the book of James Naylers called Spirituall wickednesse in heavenly places or an answer to a book entituled Freedome of Religious Worship or the Jubile of Ordinances set forth Let the wise-hearted read that book to further witnesse for the Truth on our behalfe to be a witnesse against their deceit such as would falsely slander and reproach us and the Truth and where thou sayes there must be no Lawes concerning Religion yet says they admonish Rulers to see that their Lawes be according to that in the Conscience of every man then thou says after thou hast wrested their words by this it seemes there is no Religion in the Conscience or els why should there not be Lawes according to religion aswel as according to the Conscience Thou deceitfull Spirit how hast thou wrested the words set downe about the Law of God which answers his Justice the Light in the Conscience which answers the law of God which is perfect according to that in the conscience Let the wise-hearted read that Booke which thou hast wrested called The Glory of the Lord arising shaking terribly the earth overturning all untill righteousnesse be set up being an Encounter with the Ministers of the world touching their Maintenance wherein they are beaten with their owne Weapons confuted by their owne Scriptures and Arguments and that will sufficiently witnesse against thy lyes witnesse against to the Law of God which is for Establishing Religion and seeing thy lyes are so made manifest I shall leave this to the simple-hearted that they may take notice of thy deceits herein made manifest besides much filthinesse in thy booke of slanders where thou deceifully hast wrested our words by thy sorcery and witcheraft but Truth is cleared and thou art ensnared and proved to be the contradicter of Scriptures and not those whom thou scornfully calls Quakers This is a Testimony against that Pamphlet namelesse Author called The serious reveiw of some Principles of the Quakers IN a paper called A serious review of some Principles of the Quakers one that saith He hath ceased from man and is dead to Sects and saith There is many in this Age who do own in their judgement many parts of Truth or severall sound Principles of Religion as it were by peecemeal who notwithftanding many more things if not in the most do erre And as for error deceit under refined subtilty that is the condition of die man that saith He is dead to all Sects but he is yet alive in the opinions and stands on the ground of fancies and fil'd with conceits and catching at truths in the notion but errs not knowing the seed of God nor the Key of the true Knowledge nor the Spirit that stands before the Throne the flaming Sword nor the Cherub but is shut out of the ground of Truth grinding and making meal or provision for the Lust feeding with the Serpent upon dust and yet with his high aiery notions and coloured expressions thinks to hide himself but is bare to the single eyed He saith he shall lay down several principles of the Quakers and as he propounds them he shall refute them yet shall speak of none of them but such as be most known that they may not have it to say that he wrests their words and do bely them but in the first place thou wrests and belies the words of J Nayler and G Fox let the wise hearted read Sauls errand and the 4th page in the Answer to the perfect Pharisee and the words are not as thou hast set them down therefore thou art a perverter of them and a lyar and instead of defending the Truth thou art labouring to uphold the Deceit but those two Books shall witnesse for the Truth against thy fancy and whimsie amongst all thy scraped up stuffe this is the weight or matter that thou stumbles at as if there should be something in man that is not creared what is the seed of God that keeps such as are born of God that they cannot commit sin that which is born after the will of God in whom that seed abides which is as the winde that bloweth and no man knows by his will the manner of the work brought forth by it but he that is not of the world and what is that unction that abideth in such which teacheth them all things is truth and no lye Is that holy unction created is not that in the regenerate And the holy Ghost is that created and is not that in such and abides in them that mysterie of Faith which is held in a pure conscience what is that is it not in man and what is that which bruises the Serpents head and the mystery of godlines in man And such as are so joyned to that seed in union with that one spirit thou and the harlot are ignorant of them and that mysterie therefore thou mayst stop thy mouth for thou hast manifeded thy ignorance and knows not our Principles they are not for thee to take up to carry about in thy foul reason dirty mire imagination words that proceeds from the Principle thou imagins of but knows neither the Principle nor the Power in which we stand that knows not that there is somthing in man that is eternall therefore thou knows not the seed of God the holy Ghost the unction the life which comes down from Heaven nor that God in Saints dwells and walks according to his Promise nor that Christ is glorified in them and being ignorant of the life of God in Saints
