A89851 A second answer to Thomas Moore, to that which he calls, his Defence against the poyson, &c. Wherein is shewed the crooked wayes, the Serpent is forced to take to keep God and his creatures at a distance, and yet would do it under the name of a teacher. But is seen to be the same, that perswaded man out from his guide in spirit, and now would keep him so, lest his unclean wayes in the heart of man should be discovered with the spiritual light of Christ; and so man should turn to the Lord, who is that spirit, and the vail be done away, ... Here is also 54. lies gathered out from amongst a multitude more, with T.M. hath heaped up for his defence, against the truth, which he calles the poyson of Satan, which are sent him back to the 48. that I sent him before, that he may either prove them, or they root with the founder, for the truth they touch not. / Set forth to clear the truth from this froth, cast upon it by the enemy thereof, By a friend to the seed of truth, called James Naylor.

of_o they_o and_o because_o they_o may_v stand_v as_o witness_n against_o thy_o deceit_n in_o this_o book_n as_o they_o do_v in_o the_o other_o and_o see_v this_o may_v come_v to_o the_o hand_n of_o some_o which_o the_o other_o do_v not_o i_o be_o free_a to_o send_v they_o to_o thou_o again_o and_o to_o all_o the_o world_n and_o do_v not_o call_v they_o wolves_n till_o thou_o have_v so_o prove_v they_o neither_o seek_v to_o cast_v thy_o dirt_n upon_o they_o by_o shuffle_a they_o out_o of_o their_o place_n and_o seek_v to_o make_v people_n believe_v i_o mean_v another_o thing_n than_o i_o

in_o thy_o own_o forgery_n and_o meaning_n to_o make_v some_o show_n unto_o people_n to_o cover_v thy_o nakedness_n without_o which_o as_o it_o appear_v thou_o dare_v not_o meddle_v to_o oppose_v these_o truth_n though_o they_o be_v much_o in_o thy_o way_n which_o be_v as_o follow_v 1_o that_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o first_o principle_n that_o show_v a_o man_n his_o condition_n and_o lead_v to_o christ_n the_o saviour_n and_o without_o it_o the_o gospel_n be_v hide_v from_o every_o creature_n live_v and_o without_o it_o none_o can_v read_v with_o profit_n 2_o that_o though_o christ_n jesus_n in_o himself_o have_v suffer_v and_o satisfy_v the_o whole_a will_n of_o god_n for_o all_o the_o world_n yet_o none_o but_o who_o by_o faith_n in_o this_o come_v to_o receive_v a_o

the_o voice_n of_o christ_n in_o they_o but_o who_o have_v that_o spirit_n and_o light_n in_o they_o that_o give_v they_o forth_o to_o open_v their_o understanding_n to_o know_v the_o mystery_n and_o life_n of_o they_o 5_o that_o no_o man_n know_v his_o own_o heart_n but_o who_o first_o own_v the_o light_n of_o christ_n to_o search_v it_o and_o the_o same_o light_n that_o search_v the_o heart_n give_v light_a to_o know_v god_n and_o his_o glory_n 6_o that_o the_o least_o measure_n of_o live_a faith_n that_o be_v not_o a_o fancy_n but_o stand_v in_o christ_n jesus_n be_v present_a power_n against_o all_o sin_n and_o the_o great_a power_n of_o satan_n if_o the_o creature_n abide_v faithful_a in_o it_o and_o run_v to_o no_o other_o help_n but_o mind_n obedience_n in_o it_o 7_o that_o no_o man_n can_v be_v a_o minister_n of_o christ_n nor_o preach_v he_o true_o but_o who_o preach_v perfection_n and_o that_o be_v the_o end_n of_o his_o ministry_n which_o thou_o call_v a_o doctrine_n of_o devil_n 8_o that_o there_o be_v not_o one_o particular_a of_o the_o worship_n you_o perform_v in_o your_o high_a place_n but_o it_o be_v add_v or_o alter_v from_o what_o it_o be_v when_o christ_n appoint_v it_o and_o establish_v it_o 9_o that_o god_n and_o his_o word_n be_v now_o manifest_a in_o the_o body_n of_o his_o saint_n in_o the_o same_o manner_n and_o as_o free_o as_o former_o he_o have_v be_v and_o that_o there_o he_o be_v a_o sufficient_a teacher_n and_o shield_n against_o sin_n without_o any_o other_o help_n to_o all_o according_a to_o the_o measure_n of_o their_o knowledge_n of_o he_o present_a 10_o that_o no_o man_n can_v receive_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n spirit_n but_o who_o mind_n somewhat_o of_o god_n in_o they_o to_o receive_v it_o withal_o 11_o that_o the_o least_o measure_n of_o god_n spirit_n be_v a_o infallible_a guide_n and_o without_o it_o no_o man_n know_v christ_n nor_o can_v judge_v of_o any_o thing_n of_o god_n or_o his_o truth_n his_o kingdom_n or_o the_o way_n to_o it_o or_o the_o devil_n and_o his_o subtlety_n but_o lie_v open_a to_o be_v deceive_v in_o all_o thing_n and_o to_o be_v lead_v by_o man_n of_o corrupt_a mind_n in_o who_o the_o devil_n be_v 12_o that_o the_o ground_n of_o all_o error_n sect_n and_o opinion_n heresy_n and_o blasphemy_n that_o be_v in_o the_o world_n be_v in_o be_v lead_v from_o the_o guidance_n of_o this_o

which_o thou_o accuse_v we_o in_o thy_o book_n have_v wrest_v they_o contrary_a to_o our_o judgement_n and_o practice_n thereby_o to_o darken_v the_o way_n of_o truth_n more_o dear_a to_o i_o then_o life_n to_o the_o end_n that_o all_o may_v find_v it_o and_o rest_n to_o their_o soul_n i_o have_v lay_v they_o down_o as_o plain_a as_o i_o can_v as_o they_o be_v in_o jesus_n in_o i_o reveal_v without_o any_o add_v or_o diminish_v as_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n so_o when_o thou_o write_v to_o oppose_v again_o let_v it_o be_v plain_a to_o the_o people_n whether_o thou_o own_v or_o deny_v so_o the_o difference_n may_v be_v judge_v with_o the_o true_o wise_a in_o heart_n and_o the_o ground_n of_o it_o nad_z do_v not_o cast_v a_o mist_n over_o the_o truth_n as_o in_o thy_o book_n and_o yet_o dare_v neither_o own_v nor_o deny_v but_o secret_o bite_v and_o devour_v here_o be_v also_o some_o of_o thy_o lie_n send_v back_o to_o the_o author_n and_o when_o thou_o prove_v they_o i_o shall_v make_v my_o defence_n till_o then_o let_v they_o rot_v with_o the_o raiser_n of_o they_o which_o be_v as_o follow_v 1_o that_o i_o own_v myself_o to_o be_v one_o of_o those_o that_o sleight_n and_o reject_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n 2_o that_o the_o way_n of_o lie_v proud_a boast_n and_o false_a accuse_v be_v the_o perfection_n of_o our_o doctrine_n and_o principle_n 3_o that_o i_o own_o some_o other_o spirit_n then_o that_o in_o and_o with_o the_o scripture_n as_o god_n spirit_n 4_o that_o we_o will_v present_v man_n perfect_a in_o themselves_o while_o there_o be_v nothing_o perfect_a that_o so_o they_o may_v not_o look_v to_o the_o perfection_n of_o christ_n 5_o that_o we_o promise_v other_o liberty_n freedom_n from_o sin_n glorious_a conquest_n in_o themselves_o 6_o that_o we_o count_v that_o sin_n that_o be_v look_v to_o that_o jesus_n which_o be_v the_o very_a christ_n 7_o that_o we_o never_o make_v it_o our_o work_n in_o our_o speaking_n or_o writing_n to_o preach_v lift_v up_o or_o commend_v that_o jesus_n as_o he_o be_v in_o that_o one_o personal_a body_n etc._n etc._n 8_o that_o we_o preach_v not_o jesus_n and_o the_o resurrection_n as_o the_o apostle_n do_v 9_o that_o we_o make_v up_o our_o whole_a doctrine_n and_o matter_n without_o that_o which_o god_n have_v lay_v in_o zion_n for_o a_o foundation_n 10_o that_o we_o magnify_v not_o the_o son_n of_o man._n 11_o that_o i_o assert_v nothing_o in_o my_o book_n of_o that_o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n in_o that_o which_o he_o have_v do_v &c_n &c_n 12_o that_o i_o array_v christ_n as_o herod_n do_v that_o i_o may_v mar_v his_o visage_n and_o mock_v at_o he_o 13_o that_o in_o my_o book_n i_o say_v i_o be_o christ_n and_o that_o we_o leave_v nothing_o of_o the_o declaration_n of_o hope_n that_o we_o so_o invert_v not_o 14_o that_o if_o any_o do_v preach_v thing_n according_a to_o scripture_n we_o revile_v it_o as_o the_o heathen_a revile_v the_o apostle_n for_o preach_v jesus_n and_o the_o resurrection_n 15_o that_o i_o be_o a_o denier_n of_o christ_n as_o judas_n be_v 16_o that_o we_o make_v not_o jesus_n the_o sum_n and_o subject_a matter_n of_o our_o preach_n 17_o that_o we_o
