A77227	The Quakers quaking principles examined and refuted in a briefe answer to some erroneous tenets held forth by James Naylor in his answers unto Mr Baxter, and some others that have publikely opposed that blacke spirit in the deluded Quakers. Wherein is also included a serious admonition, how wee ought to behave our selves towards the ministers of the gospell, in respect of communicating unto them; and for giving to the poore, so as the Gospell requires: and to beware of covetousnesse, and the effects thereof, least wee be left of God, and delivered up unto strong delusions, and a blasphemous spirit instead of the spirit of God. The heads of the whole discourse are also premised. / Written by Ellis Bradshavve.	Bradshaw, Ellis.	1656 (1656)	Wing B4147; Thomason E869_1; ESTC R207737	57,239	71

increase_v we_o and_o give_v it_o in_o to_o the_o church_n treasury_n that_o there_o need_v be_v no_o trouble_n in_o gather_v of_o it_o and_o that_o to_o be_v dispose_v to_o the_o ministry_n and_o to_o the_o poor_a as_o may_v be_v think_v most_o needful_a and_o convenient_a by_o faithful_a man_n i_o have_v hear_v of_o a_o english_a lawyer_n of_o late_a year_n who_o be_v so_o conscientious_a of_o his_o duty_n to_o god_n in_o this_o respect_n that_o he_o put_v apart_o every_o ten_o shilling_n that_o he_o get_v with_o his_o practice_n and_o dispose_v of_o it_o for_o pious_a and_o charitable_a use_n as_o he_o find_v occasion_n and_o he_o so_o increase_v that_o he_o grow_v very_o rich_a and_o honourable_a and_o so_o live_v and_o dye_v in_o great_a esteem_n and_o i_o doubt_v will_v rise_v up_o in_o judgement_n to_o the_o condemnation_n of_o many_o carnal_a and_o worldly_a professor_n that_o make_v no_o conscience_n of_o their_o duty_n unto_o god_n and_o their_o faithful_a minister_n nor_o to_o the_o poor_a neither_o in_o these_o respect_n and_o i_o much_o fear_v that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n themselves_o be_v much_o blame-worthy_a and_o neglective_a of_o their_o duty_n in_o these_o respect_n and_o that_o it_o tend_v great_o to_o the_o hindrance_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o disparagement_n of_o their_o profession_n beside_o their_o own_o detriment_n which_o be_v very_o great_a as_o i_o can_v large_o instance_n but_o this_o be_v a_o subject_n deserve_v a_o whole_a treatise_n only_o this_o item_n i_o desire_v we_o may_v remember_v that_o if_o the_o scripture_n be_v true_a he_o that_o in_o these_o respect_n sow_v spare_o do_v and_o must_v receive_v but_o spare_o if_o he_o be_v a_o christian_n and_o that_o both_o spirituall_n and_o temporall_n from_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o he_o that_o sow_v liberal_o do_v and_o shall_v and_o may_v certain_o expect_v to_o reap_v abundant_o from_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n both_o for_o this_o life_n and_o the_o life_n to_o come_v the_o which_o be_v easy_a to_o confirm_v from_o many_o testimony_n in_o sacred_a scripture_n beside_o many_o example_n that_o may_v be_v produce_v from_o experience_n among_o we_o to_o wit_n of_o many_o professor_n of_o great_a estate_n go_v to_o decay_n that_o be_v provident_a enough_o for_o thing_n of_o this_o life_n if_o not_o too_o covetous_a and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o bless_v they_o in_o what_o they_o go_v about_o but_o blow_v upon_o their_o design_n and_o labour_n and_o estate_n and_o it_o be_v but_o just_a and_o according_a to_o his_o word_n for_o professor_n ought_v to_o be_v as_o light_n to_o the_o world_n and_o so_o to_o let_v their_o light_a shine_n that_o they_o may_v see_v their_o good_a work_n and_o glorify_v their_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o as_o they_o excel_v in_o other_o grace_n so_o they_o ought_v to_o excel_v in_o this_o grace_n also_o and_o to_o exemplify_v true_a christianity_n and_o obedience_n and_o subjection_n to_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n in_o every_o duty_n both_o to_o god_n and_o man_n that_o so_o they_o may_v also_o be_v bless_v of_o god_n and_o increase_v according_o that_o so_o they_o may_v witness_v the_o truth_n and_o verity_n of_o his_o promise_n and_o blessing_n pronounce_v in_o scripture_n in_o such_o a_o case_n and_o for_o further_a
