Whether there was such orders of men and women in the true Church of Christ in the Apostles dayes and where did Christ give Institution for such worships practices and manner of life and slothful idleness and unprofitableness to God and men as ye hold forth And whether any are bound to believe you and follow your Religion and practices except you can prove by the Scriptures the words of Christ or example of his Saints and Apostles your Religion and lives and practices and worships and whether you do admit of tryal in all your whole Religion by and according to the Scriptures and writings of the Apostles yea or nay 2. Whether the world in your hearts and the worlds nature even the root of lust the root of pride covetousness and the love of this world and its vanities and the root of Idolatry is subdued in you to the light in your consciences I do speak and what is the root of all these things and what is it that subdues it is it an outward abstinence by the force of locks and doors and bolts or self-separation and secret places that subdues the worlds nature in men and women and is i● by such means that Christ gives victory over sin and overcomes it in his people or is it not by the power of God in the heart onely And whether is it not damnable hypocrisie in you to appear outwardly holy and free from these things while yet the nature and root of all these things are alive in you and boiling up in the motions of them and is any outward thing the Crosse of Christ and Christ crucified which mortifies to the world which the Apostles Preached and rejoyced in 3. Whether is it a true denial of the world in you to deny it in one manner and place and to run into it and imbrace it in another way and place it doth not appear to me that you have denyed the world as the Apostles did for answer me where had they any such ●eats in the finest and fattest places of the Cities and Towns as ye have such great fine houses and Gardens and such revenues by the year as ye have staying all their dayes in a great house and spending their time in sloth and idleness as ye do they went up and down the world Preaching the Gospel and had no certain dwelling place but followes the Lamb of God in the spirit and did not settle themselves in fat places of the earth continuing all their dayes as ye do therefore we judge that you are out of the life and not in the spirit as the Apostles were in but are in the form of righteousness and holiness without the power So I demand an answer to clear your selves if you can and to prove that you are of the true Church and t●at your w●yes and practices are in and by the spirit of God and according to the Scriptures 4. What is that death that hath passed over all and reigned from Adam to Moses and whether it doth not reign yet in and over you and what is Moses Ministration and whi●her ever through it you yet truly came and whether that part be subdu●d in you which the Law of God was added upon and whether are you come to Christ and knowes him as he was before Abraham and before Mary and how was he Davids Lord and how his Son and is Christ within you born and reve●led to you by whom the world was made and do you expect to be perfectly freed from sin that ye shall not commit sin in this life upon earth
