we may obey and do it which if thou diligently wilt observe thou shalt be led out of all unrighteousness and in thy obedience shalt thou receive power to become a Son of God in which happy estate God only can be known by men and they know themselves to be justified before him whom experimentally to know by Jesus Christ is life Eternal A Post-script of Animadversions upon T. V's Contradictions delivered in his Sermon from 1. John 5.4 at his evening Lecture in Spittle-Yard For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the World Whatsoever Person is born of God overcometh the World There is a two-fold Victory the first Compleat the second Incompleat This is as well a contradiction to his Text and Doctrine as common sence for besides that they neither of them say He that 's born of God cannot perfectly overcome the World but much the contrary I fain would understand his intention by an incompleat victory If he means not such a one as is obtained by the slaughter of every individual but that which onely does subdue the force and lead captive their enemies yet will the Victory prove compleat for if they be so far overcome as to be disarmed of farther power to mischieve the dispute is properly determined but whatsoever is incompleat is but overcoming or in the way to victory and victory is the compleating of what was before imperfect Such overcome as are born again who are in Christ that have cast off the old Man and known a change altogether new Worldly lusts can't be extirpated out of God's People in this World If sin must have a place in them how can they be born of God and have a place in Christ or cast off the old man and know a change altogether new Gods Children are the greatest Conquerors Alexander and Caesar were Conquerors but these overcome their lusts God's Children can't perfectly overcome the lusts of the World they sometimes take them captive What strange Divinity is this that God's People should be Conquerors and yet Captives overcome the World and yet be overcome thereby Sin may tyrannize over Believers But not have dominion it 's in captivity it 's in chains Who is so absolutely injurious and incontrolable as a Tyrant and notwithstanding that he should have no dominion but be in captivity and in chains at best are Bedlam distinctions and consequently unworthy of any mans mouth that has a share of common sence You must kill or be kil'd either you must overcome the World or the World you If ye fight ye shall overcome 2. Incompleatly he overcomes when he breaks their force leads them captive and puts them into chains but they are not at all slain they sometimes take him captive To kill or be kill'd admits no middle way to escape yet that both Sin and Gods Children should lead one another captive and that he which fights shall overcome and yet in danger of being led captive because incompleatly a Conqueror to me seems very strange Doctrine However he goes on to tell them Whosoever is born of God overcomes the lusts of the World and he that overcomes the lusts of the World overcomes the Devils of Hell God's Children have to do with a conquered Enemy Yet he would all this while be understood in an incompleat sence and to excite all to fight for this incompleat Victory he recommended to their consideration the excellent rewards of Conquerors that is To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the Tree of Life the hidden Mann● I will give him a white Stone a new Name Power over Natons whi●e Rayment yea I will make him a Pillar in the Temple of my God he shall go no more out and I will grant him to sit with me in my Throne Admirable priviledges I acknowledge but are they promis'd to incompleat Conquerors I judge not Reader by this thou mayest be able to give a probable conjecture of the rest and ●s I have begun with him and his Co-disputants with them I l'e 〈◊〉 who notwithstanding all their boasts and calumnies against us have so evaded those many opportunities we have offered them by Letters Verbal Messages and Personal Visits that had they any Zeal for their Principles love for their Reputation or Conscience in their Promises they would have been induc'd to a more direct and candid Treaty But as it hath occasioned the publication of this little Treatise so am I credibly inform'd through the too busie and malitious inquisition of some concerning it which have amounted to no less than positive Reports its currantly discours'd How that a certain Quaker hath lately espoused the controversie against R.F. and therein has perverted the Christian Religion to that degree as plainly to deny Christs coming in the flesh with much more then was fit to be said or is fit to be answered But Reader I shall ask no other Judge to clear me from that most uncharitable accusation since first I am altogether unacquainted with R.F. nor never did design directly such a thing being unwilling to seek more Adversaries than what more nearly seek the overthrow of Truth although I doubt not but this plain and simple Treatise may prove some confutation of his Sentiments And lastly as concerning Christ although the slander is not new yet never the less false for I declare on the behalf of that despised People vulgarly called Quakers the Grace of which we testifie hath never taught us to acknowledge another God then he that 's the Father of all things who fills Heaven and Earth Neither to confess another Lord Jesus Christ than he that appeared so many hundred years agoe made of a Virgin like unto us in all things sin excepted or any other Doctrine than was by him declared and practised therefore let wery mouth be stopt for ever opening more in blasphemy against God's Innocent Heritage who in Principle Life and Death bea● an unanimous Testimony for the only True God True Christ and Heavenly Doctrine which in their Vindication is openly attested by William Penn jun.
