Antidote pag. 32. The same Jesus that is in our Nature in that Body then and there prepared for him set down in Heaven even he that Person that is Personally absent from Believers is dwelling in their hearts by Faith of and in him This G. F. quotes as an Error and says in Opposition to him But the Saints in the Light receive Christ the hope of Glory and so he is not absent from them p. 135. Now although T. M. does own Christ in them by Faith yet that will not serve G. F. but he opposes T. M's saying That Person that is Personally absent c. And in Opposition says G. F. So he is not absent from them and therefore this implies he G. F. owned no other Personal Jesus but that is in him and did intend and mean hereby to contemn and undervalue our Lord Jesus of Nazareth his Sufferings without us for can he dwell in their Hearts by Faith and not be revealed within them and it was not his being revealed within would satisfie G. F. who not only opposes the Truth but in citing T. M's words in his 135 pag. does by him there as his usual manner was he here also leaves out and adds and of forty words takes but eight and adds the word Christ and cutting the Sentence in two leaves out the most material words and takes a few out of the middle of the Sentence Now from all these judge ye who is wicked T. C. in forgetting an insignificant Parenthesis and and or G. F. in thus wickedly abusing mangling perverting adding and diminishing mens words falsly accusing and belying them and these Foxonian Chief Priests in excusing and covering his Errors And who most deserves the Pillory T. C. or they who Forge and Print false Accusations against T. C. to defame him and cover their own wickedness And in my former Discovery c. I cited G. F. saying pag. 131. All be in the Fancy that he out of the state of Witnessing Christ that suffered within them Now G. F. hath the word and at the beginning of this Sentence which I left out as useless and the Parenthesis I over-looked but neither of them are of stress nor did I leave them out to wrong his sense nor did I make any Observations on those words only cited them but these Foxonian Chief Priests take great occasion against me therefrom and say It 's very unfair if designed and nothing less than my Plea of Ignorance or want of Understanding will excuse â—e with them from being therein guilty of great wickedness This is already spoken to pag. 18 but now having T. M's Book before me in Answer to whom those aforesaid words of G. F's be who in his 131 pag. brings in T. M. thus saying And the Righteousness of God wrought by Christ for us which need not be wrought over again in us And then G. F. Answers Whosoever hath not Christ within are Reprobates and whosoever hath Christ within hath the Righteousness Now here G. F. does endeavour falsly to represent T. M. as opposing Christ or his Righteousness being within the Saints which T. M. doth not as I shall shew He T. M. doth say in the next leaf pag. 61. So that though they Preach the same Jesus that is in them and in and to them being received by Faith the hope of glory c. Now hereby it 's evident T. M. did not oppose or deny Christ being in them as G. F. falsly represents him and so by his Answer opposes his own Imagination and proves himself a Perverter But that 's not all he is guilty of much worse wickedness in this very place than that they make me so wicked for for T. M's words be thus in his Answer to J. N. Says he Not caring how full he J. N. make his acknowledgment of the Righteousness of God wrought in the Death and Resurrection of that Person Jesus in that Personal Body if the Works of Redemption and Righteousness therein wrought be not asserted and understood to be therein fâ—â—ished and made Perfect in him for us so as they need not to be wrought over again in us Now of T. M's 50 words G. F. takes but 20 and cuts off the Sentence and takes out these most material words the Death and Resurrection of that Person in that Personal Body if the Works of Redemption therein be not asserted and understood to be therein finished and made perfect in him for us All these he G. F. leaves out in the middle but steals out from the midst of them where the strokes be these two words viz. Righteousness and wrought and changes T. M's word in into by and for the word Person he puts Christ Behold now according to these Foxonian Priests own Judgment what mangling work here is which is no part of a good Christian and grosly misrepresented abused misquoted curtailed and misapp 〈…〉 d Passages But of this enough to shew his corrupt dealing in abusing a Man but Maliâ—â— abounding c. And as they say pag. 18. by my consent their Servant E. Bennington shall stand on F. 〈…〉 Pillory with his Masters next time as a false Accuser when there is any room for him there This is their own Judgment and 〈…〉 ge vented against me because I discover the wickedness of these Foxonian Chief Priests and much more such Rage and Slanders do they foam out falsly against me which I shall not mind only to shew their Partiality But I would not be guilty of such gross wickedness as this G. F. is for much especially if they were to have the Punishing of me but they do sufficiently shew the Fallibility of their Spirit although their Pride will not let them acknowledge it But to 〈◊〉 to G. F's abuse of T. M. It 's evident it was the efficacy and value of the 〈◊〉 and Obedience of our Lord Jesus that T. M. pleads for and that he opp 〈…〉 was as he says pag. 56. Taking away from us the Personal Sufferings of 〈◊〉 in his own Body and the infinite and abiding Vertues of them for our help and 〈…〉 g in the room of it his i. e. J. N's imaginary or fancified Christ or Light in Men. This and much more that he says as the very words G. F. cites proves viz. which need not be wrought over again in as shew it was not Christ's being manifest within that T. M. opposed nor that G. F. principally intended But G. F. was tormented and raged because our Lord Jesus his Person and sufferings without us was preferred before his G. F's Spirit or Light as in the work of our Salvation Although he dare not deny yet sidelongly misrepresents T. M's Doctrine as farther he brings in T. M. saying And that Christ our Justification should be in us that dyed and suffered that ascended this says G. F. he calls a fancy to fancy him in a particular Person But T. M's words in pag. 59. are thus speaking of J. N. Doth he not mean
Infallible but Fallible and delude the People by G. F's Doctrine Excuse me for troubling you with so much of G. F's impertinent stuff for I am forced to it by their Clamours they hoping thereby to tire me and you too And what regard is there to be had to these Mens Writings who notwithstanding all these and twenty times more I could produce of their proud boastings of themselves and Spirit as being Infallible yet they have the Face in their Discoverer Discovered p. 17. to Challenge T. C. to prove that ever they ascribed Infallibility to Men but as influenced by the Infallible Spirit But if G. F. and his Spirit were not both Infallible he was according to his own Judgment in Print a Bantring Conjurer a Diviner and false Prophet For besides what I have before quoted he says How can you be Ministers of the Spirit and not of the Letter if you be not Infallible And ye do well to confess you have not the Infallible Spirit are not Infallible and how can they but delude People which are not Infallible p. 82. All these prove that G. F. did ascribe Infallibility to Persons as well as to his wicked Spirit And this also proves that these Foxonian Quakers are so notoriously false that they are not to be believed For it 's the Fallibility of themselves as Men that these Men whom G. F. opposes do acknowledge and for which this Juggler G. F. doth so Banter them for it 's not the Spirit of God's being Infallible that they oppose And I shall further manifest the Fallibility and Wickedness of G. F's Spirit who brings in W. T. saying We are justified by Christ without us and not within us p. 104. Now W. T. says in his Epistle We are freely justified by the Grace of God through the Redemption and Righteousness of Jesus Christ which is not within us but without us Now W. T 's words refer to the Righteousness and Redemption of our Lord as performed in his own Person without us as is plain by his term which and not as G. F. perverts his words as if he opposed Christ's Spiritual working in us for as is here shewed he owns that And W. T 's Sentence is 24 words and G. F. takes but 12 of them and perverts them too Also in p. 106. G. F. brings W. T. saying Christ is not come to them in the Flesh Now W. T 's words in his 45 Page are thus Christ is come already in the Flesh to us in the Spirit into us c. But is not come yet nor till the last day is to come in his Power and Glory Here W. T 's Sentence is 32 words and G. F. takes but 10 of them transposing perverting and falsly accusing W. T. for he saith Christ is come already in the Flesh to us and G. F. says that W. T. says Christ is not come to them in the Flesh Here is a Lye a false Accusation and false Quotation all these wicked deeds in this one Sentence of G. F's Again in pag. 106. G. F. brings W. T. saying Men are saved but not by Christ within us But W. T. says pag. 42. Whether he build his Salvation on Christ as be is within that is says he on that of Christ which is within I grant Christ is in us except we be Reprobates this grant of W. T 's proves G. F. a false Accuser saith W. T. But it 's true also Christ doth not save us as within us nor by any thing he hath put within us as if that were the cause of our Justification or Christ by that c. Here W. T 's sentence is 40 words and G. F. takes but 8 of them and perverts them and falsly accuseth him And this is that fame W. Thomas that G. F. doth so banter as before for acknowledging they were Fallible Men. Therefore if G. F. had any Honesty or Infallibility he would here have shewed it when he so highly pretended to it but indeed he hath herein proved himself and his Spirit to be Infallibly wicked This is an Infallible Truth proved here and in my Essay c. Where I omitted many of his false Quotations of those two mens words because I would not burthen the Reader And he often omits to mention Pages but says be saith but no body knows where for some of them I cannot find in all the Books therefore do not you think to delude People with your sham Stories That these are from F. B. or I. P. for I can produce the Books but if they were from them they are not the less true for neither of them are guilty of such wickedness as your great Prophet G. F. is And hereby is not only G. F. discovered but his Spirit also in hopes that it may not trouble Christendom so much as it has done or was intended by you And I question not but a more serviceable and truer Journal than yours will be published of him and his Spirit of which says he Saul's Errand to Damâ—scus c. p. 6. He doth not say G. F. is Christ but he says I and my Father are one and where the same is revealed this is witnessed And then he cites the 2 Phil. 5 6. Let the same mind be in you that was also in Christ who being in the form of God thought it no robbery to be equal with God and yet made himself of no Reputation And then saith G. F. And this I witness to be fulfulled for the same Spirit where it is is equal with God for he that sanctifieth and they that are sanctified are all of one and it is God that sanctifieth saith G. F. But this doth not prove G. F. or his Spirit more Holy than another for all are of him Again says G. F. I am the way â—aith Christ Christ is but one in all his Saints and he speaks in them So that it 's the Spirit that he G. F. speaks by and writes these Falshoods that he gives the Title of Christ to although not to his Flesh and Bone And what shall he said to such a People as these Foxonian Chief Priests who so Revile me for leaving out some of G. F's impertinent words an And and a Parenthesis and yet themselves so grosly guilty of false Citing and perverting mens words that I question whether any Popish Writers do exceed this G. F. therein he not only perverting mens words but the Scriptures also for to warrant being Equal with God he brings 2 Phil. 4 5. which I desire you to read and you will find the whole scope thereor to exhort to Humility in lowlyness of mind Saith the Apostle Let each esteem others better than themselves And says the Apostle concerning our Lord He humbled himself and became obedient unto Death c. Now here is not any word spoke or intended to exalt any Man or Spirit in him but on the contrary according to our Lord's Example to humble our selves Let the same mind be in you that
do or say and should judge for them both for persons and of things after an Infallible manner and that they should neither say nor do nor judge any thing by any understanding of their own but the Spirit all this we deny says S. E. And farther says he So far as we judge according to this word of Christ our Judgment becomes Infallible and so we may speak of Peoples present condition with much certainty but saith he in reference to their future final state we must leave them to the Judgment of God And correspondent with this humble Christian doth W. Thomas say But this would not serve G. F. but to oppose this S. E. and says p. 5. Which is contrary to the Apostles who saith as many as are the Sons of God are led by the Spirit of God and Christ acts all in them and for them and that is it which leads the Saints to divide and discern all things both Spiritual and Temporal Now here you may see although G. F. doth not ascribe Infallibility to his Flesh and Bone yet he pretends its the Infallible Spirit guides him and them in all they do or say for it 's that this S. E. disowns and G. F. opposes him And although G. F. does as above falsly quote him as saying That within them is not Infallible c. yet but three lines lower himself quotes him allowing all Saints have the Spirit in them which is Infallible therefore such a false Accuser as G. F. needs a better memory For it s not the having of the Infallible Spirit that this S. E. denies but as he also says in pag. 2. Though there be the same Spirit in Saints that gave forth Scripture yet all Saints have not the same Inspiration as the Prophets and Apostles had so as they should he able to give forth Infallible Truths and immediately discover the pure and clear will of God as the Prophets and Apostles did This compared with what is just afore shews he allowed enough for any Christian although it would not serve G. F. but he and his wicked false Spirit must be as God 〈◊〉 And this S. E. says pag. 30. The Spirit that they call Christ within them speaking and acting all Infallible that they do or say and that it 's not they but Christ and the Spirit within them Saith S. E. Now it doth appear it is a Spirit of Delusion because it contradicts both Christ and the Scriptures And although G. F. does not here ascribe Infallibility to his Flesh and Bone yet he does imply that all he said and did was by that Infallible Spirit in him and so this and all other his untruths are not his but his Infallible Spirit within which was Infallibly a wicked one And this shews G. W. a meer Quibbler in his Pretences about G. F. assuming Infallibility as if it were only a knowing by looks or outward appearance or as he falsly says by a Spirit of Discerning given to some in the Church But that as I have shewed was allowed G. F. yet it would not content him and the Objections are not made against the possibility of such a Gift but against the Saints or Ministers of the Gospel in general having it and G. F. c. themselves in particular which he G. F. did in opposition to them maintain they had And for your shameless Quibble that G. F. did not ascribe Infallibility to Persons but as influenced by the Spirit it 's fully proved he hath by blaming others as I have shewed it ascribed it to themselves as Persons and who of you that are not Infallible are by his Doctrine Conjurers False Prophets and Diviners But that is also but a pitiful Evasion as I aforesaid although he does not ascribe it to his Flesh and Bone yet he does pretend he was acted by that and that which spoke and acted by or through him was Christ or the Infallible Spirit and as you say in your Discoverer c. He gave the Name Christ to something in him And it 's justly come on him to be detected of so many Untruths and false Accusations of Men and perverting and mangling their words and sense and making them speak Non-sence as a warning to others not to be so presomptious for I think this his Great Mystery c. is the greatest Mystery of Wickedness this Age hath produced of a Book And his G. F's Errors and Falseness is not easily found out by reading only his own Writings or Sayings for he writes so fallaciously seldom plainly affirming or denying but in a double two-fac'd loose way mostly by Queries that it 's difficult to know his meaning so as to prove a thing against him but by reading those Mens Writings whom he opposes his drift is better understood than by his own for they like honest Christians plainly affirm and deny which he seldom doth And therefore who would fully and truly understand G. F. c. their Principles they must read their Opponents Books But for this Great Mystery it is so false in Fact that I fear many more of theirs be of the same kind if strictly examined by understanding Persons capacitated for so great and serviceable a Work for I think it 's of great Concernment to the whole Nation especially who take on them Care and Cure of Souls and it 's observable where ever G. F. so highly pleads for his Infallibility against those humble Christians who honestly acknowledge they have it not as the Apostles he G. F. in the same place and with the same Persons is guilty of some more than usual Falsity as I have in this and other Instances shewed indeed he hath abundantly proved the Fallibility and Wickedness of himself and Spirit and not only as to himself but as the same Spirit doth influence and guide the now High-Priest and the other Chief Priests who Rule now among these Foxonian Quakers who although they may alter their terms or words about our Lord Jesus as they do about their Infallibility yet that 's no Evidence of their altering their Judgment and as the Infallibility of them and their Spirit is gone so is also their Perfection for neither they nor their Spirit is no more Perfect than Infallible which is not at all but on the contrary false and Fallible I could give you a whole Book of Proofs of their Pretences to Infallibility but these are enough to shew them and their Spirit 's wickedness and falseness Also to further manifest the wickedness of these Foxonian Chief Priests whereas I quoted G. F. opposing T. M. and saying And so all be in the fancy who be out of the state of Witnessing Christ that suffered within them p. 131. Now they in their Discoverer c. p. 21. make that G. F's intent herein was only That Christ that suffered without to be revealed within them but G. F. mentions not the words without nor revealed as they do Nor did this T. M. oppose that for says he in his
