A54177	The new witnesses proved old hereticks, or, Information to the ignorant in which the doctrines of John Reeve and Lodowick Muggleton, which they stile, mysteries never before known, revealed, or heard of from the foundation of the world, are proved to be mostly ancient whimsies, blasphemies and heresies, from the evidence of Scripture, reason and several historians : also an account of some discoourse betwixt L.M. and my self, by which his blasphemous, ignorant and unsavory spirit is clearly and truly manifested, in love to the immortal souls of those few, who are concern'd in the belief of his impostures / by a living true witness to that one eternal way of God, revealed in the light of righteousness W.P.

never_o come_v from_o dust_n nor_o earth_n as_o reeve_n and_o muggleton_n affirm_v p._n 45._o t.s.t._n therefore_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o the_o soul_n can_v true_o be_v say_v to_o return_v to_o

therefore_o the_o soul_n come_v from_o he_o and_o die_v not_o neither_o can_v it_o with_o the_o body_n return_v to_o dust_n four_o be_v not_o afraid_a of_o they_o that_o kill_v the_o body_n and_o

can_v kill_v the_o one_o without_o the_o other_o but_o christ_n jesus_n the_o author_n of_o truth_n and_o salvation_n say_v the_o body_n may_v be_v kill_v by_o man_n and_o the_o soul_n remain_v

for_o aught_o we_o know_v one_o thousand_o six_o hundred_o more_o must_v needs_o have_v lose_v not_o only_o a_o little_a but_o all_o that_o he_o enjoy_v live_v instead_o of_o further_a gain_n therefore_o i_o infer_v their_o principle_n of_o the_o soul_n mortality_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o apostle_n for_o with_o he_o to_o die_v be_v gain_n that_o this_o be_v the_o

to_o enjoy_v he_o but_o this_o have_v be_v no_o straight_a if_o he_o be_v to_o lose_v what_o he_o have_v and_o not_o to_o enjoy_v he_o after_o departure_n in_o any_o sense_n as_o the_o dead_a
