First It m●st needs be ●sp●●t of delusion and Antichrist that doth ●nstead of theirs misinform thy heart and so maketh it judg amiss of things as thou hast done and hereafter will more clearly appear to any single eye and thou hast by that spirit of delusion and of Antichrist made manitest thy Astronomical and false Judgment but such are div ners therefore saith the Lord I will n●●k●th m mad as may be read I●a 44. for it is He that frustrateth the tokens of lyars and thou art a lyar therefore thy token 's frustrated and it is the Lord also that maketh diviners mad that tu●neth wise-men backward and maketh their knowledg foolish as th●ne is and such like Isa 44.25 who by thy false and Astronom●cal judgment as thou calls it hast judged clear amiss and called evil good and good evil and so thou owns and approves what thou ought not and condemns by thy false and Astronomicall judgment what ought to be owned and approved the light stands a witness against thee which l●ght is thy condemnation that hates it and acts so against it and contrary to it And secondly That base deceit of Antichrist thou speaks of which is brought forth is not sound in the hearts of those people thou calls Quakers they deny it but it is found and brought forth by Antichrist in thy heart and the hearts of such as thou art thy Astronomical Judgment is false and hath deceived thee and thou thy self art found in that deceit ●irmingeham ● G. who artiso clearly mistaken in judgment as R. G. and such like in their deceiveableness are that calls good evil and ev l good and such as calls the Power of God that reformeth the heart and redeems the soul to God and worketh our pride covetousness theft whoredoms drunkenness lying swearing cursing cheating defraud w●tcherast hatred variance wrath strife and worketh out of sedition and the works of the flesh as 1 Cor. 6.9 10. and Gal. 5.19 20 21. ●nto sanctification and purity as in 1 Cor. 6.11 and into the fruits of the spirit whereby the flesh is crucified with the affections and lusts thereof so that there is a living and walking in the spirit and spiritual communion with the Father by such in the spiritual life of sanctification and purity Gal. 5.23 24 25. And grace and peace is thereby multiplyed through the knowledge of God and of Iesus our Lord according as His divine power giveth unto us all things that pertain to life and godliness through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and vertue 2 Pet. 1.2 3. This power and work of grace wrought by the Spirit of God in the hearts and souls of those you scornfully call Quakers is witnessing and witnessed the Spirit of God also wirnesseth the same with our spirits Rom. 8.14 15 16. Gal. 4.6 and wirnesseth against your lying spirits and against all such as call this work delusion c. Here Edmund Sk●pp thy Astronomical judgment is abominable false
the measure of the sufferings of Christ and those that have thus suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin 1 Pet. 4.1.2 Thy second where thou mentions quaking thy lies there we deny but quaking and trembling we witness to be the Saints conditions fulfilled in us who witness the same power of God as they did Jer. 5.22 Isa 66.2 Psal 2.12 In the third thou speakest thy own lies at random In the fourth thou hast declared thy self to be an enemy to the sufferings of Christ calling it a delusion Oh let shame stop thy mouth for ever thou enemy of the Crosse of Christ and thy own soul for although Isaiah prophesied of what Christ in his own person hath fulfilled yet the Members of Christ are to take up his Crosse and follow him and it is written and witnessed 2 Cor. 1.5 for as the sufferings of Christ abound in us so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ 1 Pet. 4.13 2 Cor. 4.10 That which thou and the rest of the world doth call our bondage and slavery pag. 18. that was the Saints and is our joy and liberty by which the righteous seed is brought forth in obedience to the living God but it is no wonder that the world hate us for they know us not if we were of the world the world would love his own Iohn 15.18.19 Mat. 5.11 12. In answer to that in page 29. Iesus Christ is unto us the bread of life Iohn 6.33.35.48 and he is unto us the water of life Iohn 4.14 7.37 In page 30. thy lies are made manifest unto all men that knowes us for which of us doth deny to labour with his hands and which of us is it that liveth in idleness nay it is Satan the Father of lies that acts thee to say that we should say It is the language of Antichrist that bids men take care for their Families for we do take care for our Families with all diligence in the sight of God but our Conversation is without covetousness Heb. 13.5 What is mentioned in the third Rule pag. 31.32 33 34. to that I an●wer the same spirit that ruled in the Children of disobedience then even in the dayes of the Apostles the same spirit ruleth in thee and others now they stumble at both Prophets Christ and his Apostles and now the same Generation are stumbling at Christ in his Members so all they that stumble stumble at the light and at the corner stone as for the Prophesiers that thou mentions in page 36. I tell thee and them that all Prophesiers that are enemies to possession we do deny to be any Members of Christs Church which is in God 2 Thes 1. Page 37. is another lie yea more then one plainly in saying that we rank our selves with the sinful men of the world who are indeed all under the power of Antichrist from the which thou was never yet redeemed by Christ in thee for thou art astr anger to his life See what thou raisest from supposition or thy if in page 37. see what thou canst witness from those Scriptures fulfilled in thee thou art a Theif and a Robber stealing the Apostles words stealling the word from thy Neighbour thou confesseth that we walk like as the Apostles did in many things as in conversation words and writings in page 40. and 41. thou sayest that the whole bulk of our actions hitherto as far as thou hast either known or heard do declare us to be carried forth as Ministers of righteousness oh let all take notice of this the Devil speaks some truth but in the latter end of page 40. thou art thinking that Satans Kingdom is divided oh filthy conclusion oh meer Babel canst thou open thy mouth and let thy pen run against such a harmless people of whom thou thy self art made to confess such excellent things I shall now leave a little in following of thee in thy confused and deceitful lines and shall turn to that Scripture 2 Cor. 11.13.14 15. for such were false Apostles deceitful workers c. In page 41. elsewhere thou raiseth thy own conceivings as of other things of the Scripture and then amplifie or illustrate upon thy own Imaginations so giving private interpretations of the Scriptures for thy own private ends whereas no Scripture is of any private interpretation 2 Pet. 1.20 I shall lay down by plain Scripture who those false Apostles are 1. They are such as preach another Jesus 2 Cor. 11.4 now Jesus is a Saviour Thou shalt call his name Jesus for he shall save his people from their sins Mat. 1.21 he maketh an end of sin Dan. 9.24 being dead with Christ Rom. 6.8 the body of sin is destroyed v. 6. he that is dead with Christis freed from sin verse 7. compared with 1 Pet. 4.1 by the which we are made free from sin Rom. 6.18.22 and become the Servants of God so that the blood of this Jesus who is the son of the living God cleanseth us from all sin 1 John 1.7.2.12 because your sins are forgiven for his names sake which name is Jesus a Saviour from sin and we know that he is manifested to take away our sins and he that abideth in him sinneth not 1 John 3.5.6 Rev. 1.5 Now whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God 1 John 5.1 Now Jesus is a Saviour Christ is God in flesh or the anointing of the true Teacher 1 John ● 17 Now he that can witness a Saviour is brought forth in flesh he is born of God and can witness Christ in him the hope of glory which is Immanuel God with us and those dwell in God and God in them 1 John 4.16 2 Cor. 6.16 now sin is the unfruitful work of darkness God is light 1 John 1.5 Now he that saith he can witness Jesus and is born of God and yrt lives in darkness to wit sin he is a lier now Jesus is one with the Father and dwelleth in the Father now he that dwelleth in the Father hath this hope or faith that purifieth himself even as he is pure 1 John 3.3 and 5.1 and he that abideth in him sinneth not this is Jesus the son of the living God that saveth his people from their sins whom Paul witnessed revealed in him Gal. 1.16 by the which he preached grace and peace to the Corinthians 1 Cor. 1.3.30 22.16 now there is no other name given under Heaven by which men shall be saved therefore all those that cannot witness this Jesus this Son of God they are false Apostles that speak of a Jesus that they know not like those that went to cast out De●ils in the name of Jesus whom Paul preached Acts 19.13.14.15 16. those were not vagabond-Jewes only but chief of the Priests that did so now all that cannot witness this Christ this Jesus revealed and brought forth in them as the true Apostles did that spoke from the life of Christ in them even all others are false Apostles among whom thou art
