A65478	The voyce of him that is escaped from Babylon Reasons given forth to all sober minded people, why I departed from the ministry of those called ministers of parishes; and why I departed from the ministry of those called Anabaptists; and why I have, and what I have contended for, some years past.	West, Robert, b. ca. 1613.	1658 (1658)	Wing W1391; ESTC R217331	15,883	20

i_o ask_v he_o whether_o he_o mean_v the_o visible_a blood_n that_o be_v shed_v without_o the_o gate_n of_o jerusalem_n he_o say_v yea_o i_o ask_v then_o of_o william_n crabb_n and_o nicholas_n

that_o for_o these_o reason_n first_o that-blood_n have_v a_o beginning_n which_o be_v shed_v without_o the_o gate_n of_o jerusalem_n but_o the_o everlasting_a gospel_n have_v no_o beginning_n again_o the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v to_o abraham_n and_o they_o that_o be_v dead_a and_o christ_n preach_v the_o gospel_n before_o the_o visible_a blood_n be_v shed_v and_o remit_v sin_n and_o there_o be_v

you_o deny_v it_o they_o then_o be_v silent_a then_o say_v i_o i_o shall_v not_o prove_v it_o except_o they_o do_v deny_v it_o many_o other_o wordspass_v with_o which_o i_o shall_v not_o trouble_v the_o reader_n for_o matter_n this_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o that_o present_a meeting_n after_o this_o they_o say_v that_o i_o be_v fall_v from_o the_o faith_n and_o that_o they_o be_v sorry_a for_o i_o and_o other_o i_o then_o examine_v what_o may_v be_v the_o meaning_n of_o this_o their_o say_n and_o i_o find_v in_o my_o understanding_n that_o they_o do_v mean_a because_o i_o do_v believe_v the_o first_o principle_n to_o be_v preach_v to_o man_n be_v the_o light_n that_o shine_v in_o darkness_n to_o wit_n in_o their_o heart_n whereas_o they_o preach_v to_o man_n the_o first_o principle_n to_o be_v believe_v be_v without_o man_n and_o not_o within_o man_n now_o i_o confess_v it_o have_v be_v a_o question_n some_o time_n in_o my_o understanding_n whether_o yea_o or_o nay_o i_o have_v not_o

the_o say_n of_o the_o woman_n but_o true_o as_o they_o say_v so_o say_v i_o they_o say_v now_o we_o believe_v not_o because_o of_o thy_o say_n for_o we_o have_v hear_v he_o ourselves_o and_o know_v that_o this_o be_v indeed_o the_o christ_n the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n for_o friend_n it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o believe_v the_o scripture_n or_o report_v of_o man_n but_o it_o be_v another_o
