A62667 The Quakers apostasie from the perfect rule of the scriptures discovered in a double reply to a twofold answer of theirs, in the vindication of several queries propounded by the author : wherein their deceits, blasphemies and reproches against scripture authority and ordinances of institute religious worship, are spoken unto, their main principles examined and denyed, the truth defended and cleared against their railing, slandering, censorious pens and tongues / by John Timson ...

the_o visible_a church_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v under_o the_o doctrine_n and_o ordinance_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o covenant_n many_o be_v call_v but_o few_o be_v choose_v and_o these_o
