A89827	An answer to the booke called The perfect Pharisee under monkish holinesse: wherein is layd open, who they are that oppose the fundamentall principles of the doctrine of the Gospel, and the scripture practises, which the authors of that book would cast upon those they call Quakers, but are found to be themselves; who appear to be no ministers of the Gospel, but walke contrary to all that ever Christ sent forth in the scripture, scorning them who live the life of the scriptures, or are brought into the obedience of the same spirit. Published for no other end but to cleare the truth from the slanders of these men, who thereby goe about to deceive the simple, and keep them off from obedience to the truth. By one whom the world calls, James Nayler.	Naylor, James, 1617?-1660.	1654 (1654)	Wing N261; Thomason E735_2; ESTC R206955	29,772	36

christ_n be_v the_o word_n be_v to_o destroy_v the_o foundation_n of_o faith_n to_o make_v the_o scripture_n lose_v their_o authority_n and_o diverse_a such_o like_a false_a conclusion_n i_o answer_v

your_o false_a conclusion_n as_o that_o to_o be_v guide_v by_o the_o spirit_n be_v to_o draw_v the_o soul_n from_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n and_o you_o cite_v john_n gilpin_n against_o the_o
