R. the Abomination that maketh Desolate standing amongst the Quakers Wherefore hear the Word of the LORD ye Rulers of Sodom and People of Gomorrah 't is this Spirit that hath encompassed your Jerusalem about as with Armies by which we know the Destruction thereof draweth nigh Finally 't is that Spirit of Wickedness in the form of Righteousness that hath already torn your Crown from off your Head and discovered your Secret Parts so that the Scab of Contention and Strife is seen that will never leave nor cease to Divide you till the Name of Quaker become an Hiss and a Scorn amongst the Nations This Witness is true AND You that for the vast number of your Tribes have seemed to magnifie your selves in your increase of Children Wo be to You that now give Suck and take so much pains to add to your Sect for behold in one Day loss of Children and Widowhood shall come upon you This Witness is true OF this I am most certain that a Bitter Lying and Persecuting Proud Spirit inhabits your Tents which Babylonish Garment hath long been seen to lye hid amongst that Tribe called the Ministry the Teachers and Leaders of the Quakers even such Spiritual Wickedness which if practised amongst Presbyterians Independents or others whom ye disown and can see nothing in them that is good they would abhor themselves therein which You as with a Whore's Forehead boldly maintain and defend You are in truth those that justifie your selves before Men but GOD knoweth your Hearts and the Day is at Hand even at your very Door which will Discover Reveal and Preach as upon the House-tops many and great Abominations which yet lye hid amongst You that so you may be judged according to your Deeds This Witness is true as St. Paul said Tit. 1.12 13. I am constrained contrary to my Nature to plead like a Man of Contention against this Proud Pharisaical and Perverse Generation this Leviathan and Crooked Serpent in whose Nostrils unless a Hook be put would swallow not only the Rivers but also the very Sea into himself viz. Receive all tho' never so unclean in Heart and Spirit if outwardly they will but own him receive his Mark * Of Thee and Thou and the Hat and walk in outward Observation and Shew conformable to Them who while they profess themselves free from Sin and being the only Children of GOD are notwithstanding found bitter Persecutors of the Truth and Enemies to the Unction the Anointed One in whomsoever HE doth appear thereby rendring themselves guilty of all the Innocent Blood which hath been spilt from the Blood of Righteous Abel even to this Day All which Blood cryeth aloud for Vengeance upon the well-favoured Harlot Mystery Babylon who in the Golden Cups and goodly Shew of an outward Profession hath inwardly with a bitter ravening and devouring Spirit made her self Drunk with the Blood of the Saints and Martyrs of JESUS This Witness is true I have observed that those that forsake Father and Mother the Sect that nourish'd and brought them forth to follow the Lord fully and wholly as did Caleb Joshua and JESUS c. not minding their own Reputations or Fame nor loving their Lives to the Death such I say have been accounted as in all Ages so by this Hypocritical Proud Self-righteous Generation as the worst of Men calling them Ranters Atheists Blasphemers Devils any thing even all manner of Evil so they may wound the Truth and slay the Innocent Defenders thereof whose harmless Souls I see lying under the Altar of Truth sorely oppressed for their Testimony thereunto and crying out How long LORD GOD Holy and True will it be e're thou dost Judge and Revenge our Blood For whose Elect sake the GOD of my Salvation will suddenly arise and behold Enmity Lies and Falshood c. even all that Spirit of Wickedness will surely fly hide it self and sink again into the bottomless Pit from whence it came THEY care not whom they slander or what Lies they tell so they may Advance Strengthen and Increase their Party and Sect.
