A57303	The good old way and truth which the ancient Christians many ages and generations ago witnessed unto in the world from age to age, even from the dayes of Christ unto this very time, wherein the same doctrine, life and practice is witnessed unto by us who are in contempt called Quakers, through many tribulations, which our ancestors, the most ancient and true Christians that ever were upon the earth, sealed unto, with the loss of their lives and liberties, by which, in short, is fully manifested, in what is treated of herein, that the doctrine of the Quakers, in denying to swear any oath, and their refusing to pay tythes, and many other things they practise, was the doctrine and practise of the most famous and renowned Christians, both testified of in the Scriptures of truth, and the books of martyrs : also, a brief discovery of the ground and rise and tythes, manifesting them no Gospel-maintenance, but was testified against by the best and most ancient Christians many ages ago / written by ...

disciple_n and_o follower_n not_o to_o swear_v at_o all_o neither_o by_o heaven_n neither_o by_o the_o earth_n neither_o by_o jerusalem_n nor_o by_o the_o head_n etc._n etc._n mat._n 5._o 34_o 35_o 36._o now_o here_o be_v a_o plain_a change_n of_o the_o law_n which_o command_v israel_n to_o swear_v by_o the_o lord_n by_o he_o who_o have_v all_o power_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n give_v unto_o

of_o the_o law_n who_o say_v if_o man_n swear_v truth_n it_o be_v no_o evil_a but_o only_o they_o be_v not_o to_o swear_v to_o that_o which_o be_v false_a to_o which_o be_v answer_v that_o this_o be_v a_o invention_n of_o the_o objector_n and_o no_o where_o so_o say_v in_o the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n it_o need_v no_o other_o answer_n but_o a_o denial_n for_o by_o they_o of_o old_a time_n be_v speak_v of_o they_o by_o who_o god_n speak_v to_o israel_n under_o the_o law_n let_v the_o greek_a reader_n speak_v if_o the_o word_n therein_o do_v not_o imply_v so_o much_o but_o when_o israel_n revolt_v from_o the_o lord_n in_o their_o heart_n and_o yet_o keep_v the_o form_n of_o swear_v and_o say_v the_o lord_n live_v yet_o the_o prophet_n jeremiah_n say_v though_o they_o say_v the_o lord_n

people_n love_v to_o have_v it_o so_o but_o what_o will_v you_o do_v in_o the_o end_n thereof_o but_o though_o israel_n play_v the_o harlot_n yet_o let_v not_o judah_n so_o offend_v but_o come_v you_o not_o to_o gilgal_n neither_o go_v you_o up_o to_o bethavan_n nor_o swear_v the_o lord_n live_v and_o amos_n say_v they_o that_o swear_v by_o the_o sin_n of_o samaria_n and_o say_v the_o god_n of_o
