A43234	The spirit of the Quakers tried, according to that discovery it hath made of it self in their great prophet and patriarch, George Fox, in his book titled, The great mystery of the great whore, &c. in an epistle to the said Quakers, but especially to the honest hearted amongst them ... : also, the judgment and sentence is pronounced by George Fox himself against himself and party in the persons of his adversaries / by a lover of truth and men.

effecting it So our Lord Christ saith Matt. 5.15 Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel but on a candlestick and it giveth light to all that are in the house And yet if a man shut his eyes or have very sore eyes he shall not be enlightned See also Luk. 11.33 and 36. 2. The next shall be the 7 th verse of the same Joh. 1. which he has relation to in p. 13. or else I know not where to find it where he answers thus Contrary to John's doctrin and Christ's who saith The light that doth enlighten every man that cometh into the world is the true light that men through the light might believe and in p. 10. cited but now that through it he might believe notwithstanding if you take the pains to read it you will find it thus that all men through him might believe and read that and the former verse and you will perceive that him refers to John Baptist and not to the light as George Fox would have it So that he doth not only change the word but brings in thereby a divers sence of his own See p. 28. and many other places 3. The Third shall be that in 2 Cor. 4.6 which he cites almost as oft as that of Joh. 1.9 but seldom right as it is but thus or the like p. 11. Ans When as Paul said that the light which shined in their hearts to give the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ If it be non-sence I cannot help it p. 21. he saith which was the work of the true Apostles to bring people to the light within that shined in their hearts to give c. See p. 41 59. and 20. places more to the same purpose Only in p. 59. when he had cited the Scripture after his wonted false manner attributing that to the light which the Text attributes to God he saith Mark he saith the light is that which gives the knowledge c. What a strange degree of confidence must this man be arrived at that he should abuse his Reader with falsity and bid him Mark it too For the Apostle Paul has it thus For God who commanded the light to shine out of darkness hath shined in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ But if he had recited it right it would then have appeared not only that God is the giver of light and the light a gift but also that it is the light of knowledge and created for God commanded the light to shine out of darkness by creating it See Gen. 1.3 4. But George Fox likes none of these Doctrines therefore it was his Interest to pervert the Text. And because that Text Col. 3.10 seems to have been corrupted by him upon the same account that shall be 4. The next And have put on the new man which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him So saith Paul but George Fox p. 220. puts them in stead of him and so the Saints must be the Antecedent to Them whereas the new man is the Antecedent to Him and shews that the new man is created which George Fox is not willing to allow for p. 10. he corrects his Adversary for saying The light is a creature and I take it he means by the light and the new man the same thing However this is the alteration is manifest of the words and of the sence by reason thereof 5. The fifth Scripture shall be that of Deut. 30.14 where I complain of defect p. 10. for there he makes mention indeed of the words of the 12 th and 13 th verses but in the same Character with his own words but then he changes his Character whereby he intimates that he cites the very Text and saith But the word is night in thy heart Deut. 30. Moses saith But the word is very nigh unto thee in thy mouth and in thy heart that thou mayst do it To say The word is nigh thee in thy heart agrees pretty well with his Doctrine of the light within but to say The word is in thy mouth and in thy heart argues that word there spoken of is indeed such a word as is wont to be in ones mouth that is a word spoken and that our Author G. F. is not willing to acknowledge So he saith p. 47. The word of faith is within Rom. 10. This is manifest that in citing this Scripture he leaves out of the middle that which seems against him and takes the former part and the latter part that seem to be on his side Compare this with what he condemns in his Adversaries Now because it follows immediately in the same paragraph of his Books p. 10. that Text in 6. Luke ch 24. v. 5 6. shall be the sixth Scripture wherein his prevarication appears notorious For he brings in the Priest saying Christ was not in his Disciples when he said I am the light of the world And G.F. corrects him by Christ who saith I in you and you in me Then he brings in the Priest saying They that will came to Justification must go to Christs grave without c. And answers him by citing Deut. 30. as I have said And then it follows And the Angel said unto them that went to the grave without Why seek ye the living among the dead he is risen now the Angel's words run thus Why seek ye the living among the dead He is not here but is risen So G. F. leaves out He is not here out of the middle of the citation for that would have overthrown his opinion of Christ within and not without for the Angels would not say truth in saying He is not here if he was indeed there even within those that sought him 7. The Seventh Scripture follows in the same paragraph So he has abused 3. Texts of Scripture in 6. lines For it follows after He is risen and the Saints sits with him in heavenly places We must take no notice of the failure in Syntax for that 's frequent Now Paul saith Eph. 2.6 and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus Now there may be a different sence of sitting with Christ and sitting in him for when an Ambassador from any State is honourably entertained and seated the people of that State may be said to be honourably entertained and to sit in him because he represents them but scarcely to sit with him But whether there be any difference or no in the phrases it 's certain that G. F. chargeth the Translators with corruption for putting with for in See p. 373. Jud. 14. The reciting of this Scripture in this manner is so frequent with him that though he use it perhaps 20 times or more yet not once I think as it is in Scripture And here give me leave to complain of him that he deals like a deceitful Chapman that would not
