A30029	A modest defence of my book entituled, Quakerism expos'd as also of my broad sheet : with a scheme of the Quakers yearly synod, and other books presented anno 1699 to the Parliament : and G. Whitehead's inside turn'd outward, by reprinting his ancient book Ishmael, &c. intirely, shewing thereby the Quakers ancient testimony of contempt of the Holy Scriptures and blasphemy against the blessed Trinity ... / by Francis Bugg.	Bugg, Francis, 1640-1724?; Atkinson, Christopher. Ishmael and his mother cast out into the wilderness.	1700 (1700)	Wing B5375; ESTC R19514	73,450	146

aforesaid i. e. A Brief Discovery c. p. 6. the Quakers Painter G. Whitehead says in his Truth and Innocency c. p. 9. We says George deny the Words as there printed tho' not until near 40 Years after printed therefore the Words He that hath should be left out Now George may not the London Jews by the same Art and with as much Truth and Innocency defend their deceased Brethren the Jews in their Blasphemy against Jesus Christ in the Days of his Flesh who said John 8.48 Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan and hast a Devil But then by G. W.'s Rule of Arguing the London Jews may now say The Words and hast a Devil should be left out they only meant that he was the compassionate Samaritan mentioned Luke 10.33 Would this do George No sure theirs was plain Blasphemy and Fox's is as plain Blasphemy who said he was equal to God as aforesaid Thus Reader have I shewed thee the Quakers way of answering Books viz. First by Transposing Words by which if allowed I have proved that James slew Herod Secondly That by their Adding Words they likewise may excuse any Blasphemy as Whitehead here doth his Brother Burroughs who said first that the Quakers Sufferings are greater than Christ's and all his Apostles and Martyrs under the Heathen Emperors and Bloody Massacres to this Day Secondly That the Sufferings of the Quakers are more unjust than all the forementioned Thirdly That what was done to Christ his Apostles and Martyrs was chiefly done by a Law Fourthly and in great part by the Due Execution of a Law But says Whitehead It should rather have been said by a Regular or Judicial Procedure and truly this is so far from clearing Edw. Burroughs and his Brethren for they are all of one Mind being lead into these Blasphemies by their Darkness within which they call Light that it rather confirms what he Blasphemously said than otherwise And no great Marvel for the Quakers in Print deny that Person which suffered upon the Cross to be properly the Son of God * See W. Penn's Serious Apol. p. 146. For a Confutation of Penn's Doctrine read John 14.28 yea the whole Chapter and the Jews being of the same Faith they said as in John 19.7 We have a Law and by our Law he ought to die because he made himself the Son of God Thus do both Jews and Quakers agree in their Fundamentals the Quakers deny him properly to be the Son of God and the Jews put him to Death because he said he was the Son of God and both Jews and Quakers herein resist the Testimony of God himself the Glorious Angels the Holy Apostles and Army of Martyrs yea all Christian Churches to this Day and because my self and others urge that they may be examined touching these their Blasphemous Books therefore they cry out Persecution Persecution Fr. Bugg would raise the Monster of Persecution with this they make a Noise and raise a Dust but fear no such thing they only fear being examined about their Blasphemous Books and obliged by Authority to Retract them and then down goes their beloved Darling Infallibility And what remains now but to follow the Pious Example of good King † Against the Blasphemy of Senacherib King of Syria Hezekiah 2 Kin. 19.14 And Hezekiah received the Letter of the Hand of the Messengers and read it and Hezekiah went into the House of the Lord and spread it before the Lord and prayed c. And therefore that God may give a Blessing to our Labour and for his Name Sake Rebuke this Spirit of Blasphemy which have entered this our Island and if it be his Holy Will to convince the Gainsayers of his Sacred Word and Ordinances For as St. Paul Teacheth 1 Cor. 9.10 He that ploweth plows in Hope and he that thresheth in Hope shall be partaker of his Hope especially if he faint not and though to Plow and Thresh and Beat Clods be hard Work yet 't is a necessary Work to Prepare the Field For the Seedsmen who are ordained thereunto not that the Plowmen or the Sowers have wherewith to Glory for Paul may plant and Apolo water but it is God alone that giveth the increase And to him not unto us belong the Glory And tho' it has been my work to Plow and Break the Clods which is hard Labour and to thresh the Mountains that the Fields may be prepared and fitted for the Master's use yet I can say according to the discretion God has given me I have not desired to break the Bruised Reed nor to quench the Smoaking Flax by being harsh to the weak or severe to the tender but have cut down the Lofty Weeds and hewed down the Tall Ceders who stood in opposition to the way and work of God which he is bringing to pass in the Earth And therefore I shall conclude in the Prayers of our Church beseeching God of his Great Mercy to give his Blessing to my weak Endeavours And say We Sinners do beseech to thee to hear us O Lord and that it may please thee to Rule and Govern thy Holy Church Universal in the Right Way That it may please thee to keep and strengthen in the true Worshiping of thee in Righteousness and Holiness of Life thy Servant William our most Gracious King and Go vernuor That it may please thee to Rule his Heart in thy Faith Fear and Love and that he may evermore have Affiance in thee and ever seek thy Honour and Glory That it may please thee to be his Defender and Keeper giving him the Victory over all his Enemies That it may please thee to Illuminate all Bishops Pastors and Ministers of thy Church with true Knowledge and Understanding of thy Word and that by their Preaching and Living they may set it forth and shew it accordingly That it may please thee to endue the Lords of the Council and all the Nobility with Grace Wisdom and Understanding That it may please thee to Bless and Keep the Magistrates giving them Grace to execute Justice and to maintain Truth That it may please thee to give to all thy People Increase of Grace to hear meekly thy Word and to receive it with pure Affection and to bring forth the Fruits of the Spirit That it may please thee to bring into the way of Truth all such as have Erred and are Deceived That it may please thee to Strengthen such as do stand and to Comfort and Help the weak Hearted and Raise up them that Fall and finally to beat down Satan under our Feet That it may please thee to Defend and Provide for the Fatherless Children and Widows and all that be Desolate and oppressed That it may please thee to forgive our Enemies Persecutors and Slanderers and to turn their Hearts That it may please thee to give us and all Men true Repentance to forgive us all our Sins Negligences and Ignorances and to endue us with the Grace of thy
