A True Tryall of the Ministers and Ministry of England As also a true Discovery of their Root and Foundation and of the called English Church with its Honours Possessions Tythes and Maintenance Together with the fruits of the said Ministers and Ministry Published for the sake of the simple Ones that they may no longer be deceived but may come to witnesse the Altar whereof they have no right to eat who serve the Tabernacle Hebr. 13.10 Written forth by Gervase Benson The Heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made in the net which they hid is their own foot taken Psal 9.15 His mischief shall return upon his own head and his violent dealing shall come upon his own pate Psal 7.16 FRiends and People Now in your dayes is the Lord who is the Living and Faithfull God fulfilling his Promises and hath fulfilled what he said by Isaias the Prophet Isa 2.9 The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light and they that dwelt in the Land of the shadow of death upon them hath the light shined By which their feet are guided into the way of peace and in which light they see their salvation through the tender mercy of God and the remission of their sins through the knowledge of Him who is the Light of the world and hath enlightened every one that cometh into the world which light is the Saints Teacher and the Worlds Condemnation that hate it Therefore that all of you might come to know the true God whom ye ignorantly worship both Priests and People who contrary to the light do walk and act To the light which Christ Jesus hath enlightened you withall take heed and it love and obey in whatsoever it shall shew unto you That is the light which shewes you darknesse sin and evill and all things that ever you have done brings to remembrance and all your Deeds to the Light bring that with it they may be proved whether or nay they be wrought in God for all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light Ephes 5.13 And that with the light ye may come to see Him who is the way to the Father of Lights with whom is no variablenesse nor shadow of change who is the Truth And there is no coming to the Father but by Him who is the Life who is the beloved Son of God in whom alone he is well pleased who the true Prophet is which God promised he would raise up whom all the people should hear Acts 3.22 23. and every Soul that will not hear this Prophet whom God hath raised up for a light to the Gentiles that he might be his salvation unto the ends of the earth Isa 49.6 shall be destroyed from among the people and salvation they shall never witnesse for there is no other Name under heaven given among men whereby they must be saved neither is there salvation in any other Acts 4.12 but by this Jesus who continueth a Priest for ever over the houshold of God who to himself took not this honour but he that said unto him Thou art my Son this day begat I thee he also saith Thou art a Priest for ever after the order of Melchizedeek who endureth for ever hath an everlasting Priesthood who perfectly saveth them that come to God by him who is holy harmlesse undefiled and separate from sinners who is consecrated for evermore ever liveth to make intercession for the Saints who is become their High Priest of good things to come by a greater and more perfect Tabernacle not made with hands That is to say not of this building who by his own blood entred in once into the holy place having obtained eternall redemption for them whose consciences he hath and doth purge from dead works to serve the living God not in the oldnesse of the letter but in the newnesse of the Spirit Rom. 7.6 Whose hearts are sprinkled from an evil conscience and their bodies washed with pure water And of this Saviour Jesus and this High Preist whom God hath exalted and is exalting with his Right Hand to be a Prince and a Saviour are they witnesses who have believed in the Light who are the Children of the Light who by the Children of Darknesse which hate the light whose words and deeds be evill are in derision called Quakers who witnesse Him in them who is greater then he that is in the world who is entred into the Holiest of all daily making intercession for them And the true Tabernacle made without hands they are witnesses of and the New Covenant and the anointing that teacheth them of all things so that they need not that any man teach them but as the same anointing teacheth them of all things and is true and is no lye And by the Holy Ghost which he hath given them can they truly say That Jesus is the Lord and that in him they are compleat which is the head of all Principality and Power in whom also they are Circumcised with the Circumcifion made without hands in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ buried with him in Baptisme wherein also they are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God who hath raised him from the dead who is the first and the last Even he that liveth and was dead and behold he liveth for evermore And with the light which from the Lord Jesus Christ doth come they do see and know That other Lords and Priests besides him have had Dominion over them but he that hath wrought and doth work all their works in them the living powerfull God of Life and Light hath made and is making their memory to perish who have brought nothing to perfection who hold up those places wherein the Nations served their gods which the Lord commanded should utterly be destroyed Deut. 12.2 And do allow and practise those things which then 〈◊〉 ha●● disanulled blotted out and nailed to the Crosse the hand-writing of Ordinances imposed untill the time of reformation Of which time and reformation the People of God called Quakers are witnesses in life and power and so also is the Holy Ghost And the time is accomplished wherein the Lord is drawn near to judgment and is become a swift witnesse against the Sorcerers and against the Adulterers and against the Oppressors and against the Hirelings And against the Shepheards that feed themselves with the fat and cloath themselves with the wooll but feed not the flock And against the Scoffers and against all who after their own ungodly
