A85133 A character whereby the false christs, or antichrists, seducers, false prophets, and house creepers may be known. Now in the latter dayes, wherein there are perilous tims [sic], as it is written & hath been foretold of in 2 Tim. 3.3. And saith Jesus, false prophets shall come, but by their fruits shall ye know them, Mat. 7. 15, 16. and 20. And now they are come, and by their fruits they are known, as it is written. As may be seen in two letters sent to severall priests in Liestershire, after two severall meetings, betwixt them and those called Quakers, one letter was to be sent to one Tho. Cockeram of swannington [sic], servant to the Lord Protector, at whose house one meeting was, as the letter will further make mention, and shew the difference betwixt the true prophets and the false, which letter was directed to him to to [sic] be read to the priests being present at the meeting, and the other was to the priest of Twycrosse, after the meeting appointed betwixt two priests, and those whom the world scornfully calleth Quakers: wherein is discovered the true prophet and the false, and who those are that creep into houses, leading silly people men and women captive, laden with sin, and led away with diverse lusts, ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth; and who those false prophets and house-creepers are, that are spoken of, as is proved, both by their fruits, and also by Scripture, as may be seen, &c. / By one known to the world, by R[ichard Fu]rnvvorth. R. F. (Richard Farnworth), d. 1666. 1654 (1654) Wing F475; Thomason E817_8; ESTC R207412 17,091 16

be the false Prophets that Christ said should come and now you are come and declared and testified against Ephes 5.11 Mat. 7.15 16 and 20. But Jeremiah the true Prophet of the Lord he did not preach for hire neither did he bear rule by his means but he declared against such as did and were set in the stocks by one Priest and smitten on the face Ier. 20. and Ieremiah the true Prophet of the Lord he pronounced woes to such as thou art as thou mayest read Ier. 23.1 2. And thou art one of those false prophets which speaks a vision of thy own heart and makes the people light and vain as thy fruits and theirs maketh you manifest as him that thou called Mr. Kendall and others that were with thee who were so foolish vain and sottish which is part of thy fruits vanity upon vanity like Priest like people read Ier. 23.16 Hos 4.9 Thou art of those false prophets that ran but never was sent by the Lord for thou and Priest Whetstone both said that you was not as Isaiah the true Prophet was and you said also that a false Prophet ran before he was sent therefore be witnesse against your selves that you are false prophets and not true and ran before you was sent that are not as Isaiah was for Isaiah said he was annointed to preach by the Spirit Isa 61. but you are not nor none in your nature likewise Isaiah the the true Prophet said The Lord God and his Spirit had sent him to preach Isa 48.16 17. but so hath not the Lord God and his Spirit sent you to preach who said you was not like Isaiah the true Prophet that were sent but you are the false Prophets and all such as you are that hath run unsent as the false prophets did Ier. 23.21 And thou Hill and Whetstone thy partner and all such as you are steals the words of the true Prophets to trade withall and sels them for money as the false prophets did and the Lord is against you for it as he was against them therefore are you false prophets as your fruits maketh you manifest and as you may read Ierem. 13.30 31 32. And you that say that Revelations is ceased and say there is no knowledge of God but by the Letter of the Scripture as you did when the Scripture saith that there is no knowledge of God the Father but by Revelation Mat. 11.27 Gal. 1.11 12. Gal. 1.15 16. Eph. 3. Gal. 2. 1 Pet. 1. Herein you are found lyars false prophets seducers and antichrists and bringeth a contrary Doctrine to Christ and his Apostles therefore are you and all such to be holden accursed Gal. 1.8 9. Thou art one of those that the Prophet Micah speaks of that cryes peace peace to people whilst they put into thy mouth but those that cannot for conscience sake put into thy mouth and give thee money and tythes which thou hast no right to by the Law of God in the New Covenant therefore because thou art a false prophet and no Gospel Minister now thou art ready to prepare war against them or threaten them to go to Law with them which Christ forbids Mat. 5.4 And thou mayest read thy condition and all such as thou art Micah 3.5 and the 11. And many false Prophets are gone out into the world like unto thee who through covetousnesse make merchandize of the people for their own ends as thou dost and as the false Prophets did read 2 Pet 2 Thou and all hireling Priests and false Prophets such as thou art goes on in the wayes of Cain in envy as he did and are erred from the Spirit as Balaam was and wo is your portion read Jude 11. Thou art one of those that takes the wool and feeds thee with the fat as the idoll shepherds and false prophets did that Ezekiel was sent to cry wo against and wo is to thee and all such as thou art as it was to them Read Ezekiel 34. and let the true Prophets words judge thee thou false prophet and all such as thou art And I charge thee and all hireling Priests such as thou art to shew me one place of Scripture in all the Prophets writings if you can when any one true Prophet of the Lords preached for hire and threatened to sue men at the Law for their goods and said they had as good right to them as a man hath to his outward inheritance as thou and Whetstone said you had for speaking your lyes to the people who are Ministers made by the wi●l of man and not by God and so are false prophe●s Stop your mou●hs forever plagues and vengeance from the Lord expect for your reward Isa 3.11 Isa 30.1 R●m 2.5.6 And thou art an evill beast and a slow belly and a lyer like unto the Cretians whose mouth is to be stopped and all such as thou art read thy self who art in that nature a lyer an evill beast and a slow belly the light of God in thy conscience which thou acteth contrary to will rip thee up and let thee see thy wickednesse and be thy condemnation who loveth the deeds of darknesse as thy fruits maketh thee manifest rather than the light as thy fruits maketh thee manifest and as thou mayest read John 3 19 20. read Tit. 1 ●● and the 16. Philip. 3.18 19. Thou holds up the idols Temple 〈◊〉 hath the chiefest place in the Assembly of envious and wicked ones as the Scribes and Pharisees had and thou art called of men Mr. as they was and wo is thy portion as it was theirs read Mat. 23. and let Christs words there judge thee thou hypocrite thou raging wave of the sea that foameth out thy own shame read Iude 13. and thou may see all such as thou art are reserved for blacknesse and darknesse Wo to thee thou blinde guide but if the blind lead the blinde shall not both fall into the ditch Mat. 15.14 Thou art oxe of those that creeps into houses having two Steeple-houses to sell thy Brain-study and carnall inventions there and deceiveth people and keepeth them ever learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth and preaches sin in stead of grace and pleads for a continuance in sin and so for the devils kingdome for he that commits sin is of the devill 1 Iohn 3.8 but he that is born of God sinneth not neither can he sin 1 Iohn 3 9 1 Iohn 5.18 Iohn 4.16 17. which birth thou knowes nothing of nor none of thy raging fl●ck that tore the other Letter that I sent unto thee in your Beast house before any of it was read not willing that your d●c●its sh●uld come to light who yet worship the Beast and his image but se● your ●●ward Revelations 14.9 10 and 11.
