A26821	Truth's vindication, or, A gentle stroke to wipe off the foul aspersions, false accusations, and misrepresentations cast upon the people of God called Quakers, both with respect to their principle and their way of proselyting people over to them also An epistle to such of the Friends of Christ that have lately been convinced of the truth as it is in Jesus.

say_v before_o it_o be_v still_o but_o one_o thing_n if_o right_o understand_v in_o its_o true_a notion_n and_o thus_o i_o choose_v to_o express_v it_o because_o thus_o i_o have_v find_v it_o viz._n a_o principle_n of_o divine_a light_n and_o life_n in_o christ_n jesus_n place_v in_o the_o conscience_n which_o discover_v both_o sin_n and_o duty_n to_o we_o and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o it_o reprove_v the_o one_o and_o enable_v to_o perform_v the_o other_o and_o this_o i_o know_v that_o a_o measure_n of_o the_o same_o be_v place_v in_o the_o conscience_n of_o all_o mankind_n by_o which_o they_o may_v see_v the_o right_a way_n be_v but_o their_o mind_n turn_v thereunto_o therefore_o let_v none_o slight_a or_o undervalue_v this_o light_n of_o jesus_n manifest_a in_o their_o conscience_n by_o call_v it_o as_o some_o have_v do_v a_o natural_a create_v insufficient_a light_n which_o will_v lead_v man_n down_o to_o utter_v darkness_n though_o sometime_o again_o these_o very_a person_n will_v confess_v that_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n as_o they_o call_v it_o ought_v to_o be_v follow_v as_o far_o as_o it_o will_v lead_v for_o say_v they_o though_o the_o obey_n it_o dictate_v will_n never_o bring_v man_n to_o heaven_n yet_o the_o disobey_v they_o will_v certain_o sink_v they_o down_o to_o hell_n hereby_o render_v the_o lord_n cruel_a to_o his_o creature_n as_o if_o he_o require_v they_o to_o follow_v a_o guide_n that_o will_v certain_o lead_v they_o amiss_o or_o leave_v they_o short_a of_o the_o place_n of_o rest_n and_o then_o will_v punish_v they_o for_o be_v misled_n or_o for_o sit_v down_o when_o they_o have_v no_o guide_n to_o show_v they_o the_o way_n to_o walk_v in_o and_o that_o from_o a_o purpose_n in_o himself_o to_o leave_v the_o great_a part_n of_o mankind_n without_o any_o other_o guide_n to_o direct_v they_o in_o matter_n of_o salvation_n but_o that_o that_o be_v insufficient_a that_o it_o must_v be_v a_o miracle_n if_o it_o show_v they_o the_o way_n to_o heaven_n according_a to_o their_o common_a answer_n when_o ask_v how_o those_o must_v be_v save_v who_o have_v not_o the_o scripture_n among_o they_o which_o these_o account_n the_o only_a rule_n to_o guide_n man_n why_o we_o leave_v they_o to_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n say_v they_o the_o lord_n may_v in_o a_o extraordinary_a manner_n bring_v some_o to_o heaven_n if_o he_o have_v any_o elect_n among_o they_o but_o whether_o any_o of_o they_o shall_v be_v save_v or_o not_o it_o be_v hard_a for_o we_o to_o determine_v thus_o they_o darken_v counsel_n by_o utter_v word_n without_o knowledge_n they_o say_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v free_a and_o yet_o they_o make_v it_o a_o monopoly_n so_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v free_a to_o all_o nor_o must_v all_o be_v sharer_n in_o it_o neither_o will_v they_o allow_v the_o lord_n himself_o to_o dispense_v it_o nor_o yet_o to_o inspire_v his_o servant_n to_o go_v forth_o and_o preach_v it_o but_o arrogate_v to_o themselves_o a_o kind_n of_o sacerdotal_a right_n to_o be_v dispensers_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o jesus_n christ_n because_o of_o some_o outward_a qualification_n acchieve_v by_o they_o as_o external_n part_v or_o humane_a learning_n although_o they_o never_o be_v call_v of_o god_n to_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ministry_n nor_o never_o have_v the_o word_n of_o reconciliation_n commit_v to_o they_o yet_o will_v they_o have_v people_n come_v to_o inquire_v of_o they_o the_o way_n to_o the_o kingdom_n though_o they_o be_v so_o narrow-spirited_n as_o to_o shut_v out_o the_o

be_v unavoidable_o ignorant_a of_o and_o yet_o few_o or_o none_o of_o these_o will_v jeopardize_v their_o life_n to_o preach_v among_o such_o notwithstanding_n this_o be_v the_o apostle_n paul_n

the_o father_n of_o light_n and_o therefore_o have_v he_o give_v a_o measure_n of_o his_o own_o divine_a light_n to_o all_o mankind_n to_o reveal_v himself_o unto_o they_o that_o so_o they_o may_v know_v substantial_o what_o he_o be_v and_o not_o worship_v he_o as_o the_o unknown_a god_n and_o this_o knowledge_n of_o himself_o the_o father_n be_v please_v to_o dispense_v to_o man_n in_o and_o through_o the_o son_n of_o his_o love_n christ_n jesus_n our_o lord_n who_o be_v come_v a_o light_n into_o the_o world_n as_o himself_o testify_v john_n 12._o 46._o i_o be_o come_v a_o light_n into_o the_o world_n say_v christ_n that_o whosoever_o believe_v in_o i_o shall_v not_o abide_v in_o darkness_n and_o therefore_o i_o believe_v and_o be_o well_o assure_v this_o be_v the_o one_o faith_n whereinto_o many_o thousand_o by_o the_o lord_n have_v be_v gather_v viz._n that_o the_o god_n of_o all_o grace_n have_v send_v his_o son_n into_o the_o world_n a_o free_a gift_n unto_o the_o world_n and_o have_v give_v a_o measure_n of_o his_o light_n and_o spirit_n to_o manifest_v and_o reveal_v he_o unto_o all_o man_n thus_o have_v his_o universal_a love_n and_o free_a grace_n appear_v for_o though_o god_n make_v man_n pure_a and_o innocent_a yet_o satan_n and_o disobedient_a man_n have_v mar_v that_o creation_n in_o the_o beginning_n god_n create_v man_n in_o his_o own_o image_n in_o the_o image_n of_o god_n create_v he_o he_o as_o we_o read_v gen._n 1._o 27._o but_o man_n soon_o deface_v and_o stain_v this_o glorious_a stamp_n and_o by_o yield_v to_o the_o tempter_n go_v out_o from_o his_o first_o nature_n and_o so_o his_o beauty_n be_v turn_v into_o deformity_n i_o mean_v that_o beauty_n of_o his_o inward_a man_n wherein_o the_o image_n of_o god_n stand_v in_o which_o he_o have_v communion_n and_o fellowship_n with_o his_o maker_n through_o disobedience_n this_o be_v lose_v and_o so_o man_n come_v to_o be_v without_o god_n in_o the_o world_n be_v alienate_v from_o that_o divine_a life_n light_n love_n grace_n goodness_n wisdom_n power_n holiness_n virtue_n purity_n innocency_n wherewith_o the_o lord_n invest_v he_o at_o the_o first_o in_o perfect_a beauty_n but_o man_n go_v out_o from_o that_o

not_o prove_v the_o lord_n to_o be_v so_o partial_a in_o his_o love_n towards_o his_o creature_n as_o to_o choose_v some_o but_o leave_v the_o great_a part_n of_o mankind_n in_o the_o fall_v state_n without_o afford_v they_o any_o benefit_n by_o christ_n or_o a_o measure_n of_o his_o grace_n and_o spirit_n for_o want_v of_o which_o and_o be_v so_o pass_v by_o of_o god_n as_o somehave_v assert_v they_o become_v under_o a_o necessity_n of_o sin_v &_o a_o necessity_n of_o die_v oh_o harsh_a doctrine_n and_o so_o i_o must_v confess_v i_o often_o think_v it_o whilst_o i_o be_v industroms_o

be_v no_o respecter_n of_o person_n but_o in_o every_o nation_n he_o that_o sear_v god_n and_o work_v righteousness_n be_v accept_v of_o he_o for_o though_o all_o have_v sin_v and_o come_v short_a of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n wherefore_o he_o have_v conclude_v all_o under_o sin_n it_o be_v that_o he_o may_v have_v mercy_n upon_o all_o not_o willing_a that_o any_o shall_v perish_v in_o sin_n but_o that_o all_o may_v come_v to_o repentance_n moreover_o than_o this_o the_o scripture_n do_v abundant_o speak_v forth_o the_o extent_n and_o benefit_n of_o christ_n death_n for_o all_o mankind_n
