B09558 A looking-glass for George Fox the Quaker, and other Quakers; wherein they may see themselves to be right devils. In answer to George Fox his book, called, Something in answer to Lodowick Muggletons book, which he calls The Quakers neck broken. Wherein is set forth the ignorance and blindness of the Quakers doctrine of Christ within them; and that they cannot, nor doth not know the true meaning of the Scriptures, neither have they the gift of interpretation of Scripture. As will appear in those several heads set down in the next page following. / Written by Lodowick Muggleton ... Muggleton, Lodowick, 1609-1698. 1667 (1667) Wing M3046; ESTC R10137 83,636 106

of_o hell_n and_o thus_o man_n and_o woman_n have_v know_v good_a and_o evil_n by_o eat_v of_o the_o forbid_a fruit_n of_o lust_n this_o many_o ranter_n be_v guilty_a of_o to_o my_o knowledge_n neither_o be_v your_o quaker_n people_n free_a for_o i_o know_v of_o those_o that_o have_v fall_v to_o the_o quaker_n think_v to_o find_v ease_n there_o but_o they_o will_v find_v the_o quaker_n

this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o easy_a point_n that_o be_v to_o prove_v by_o scripture_n and_o experience_n these_o be_v the_o word_n that_o george_n fox_n do_v ground_n the_o immortality_n of_o the_o

breath_n of_o life_n by_o which_o man_n become_v a_o live_a soul_n mortal_a and_o say_v be_v this_o thy_o knowledge_n as_o if_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o i_o to_o answer_v or_o to_o make_v good_a by_o scripture_n chap._n vi_o answer_n this_o point_n have_v be_v prove_v by_o scripture_n in_o all_o our_o other_o write_n as_o aforesaid_a and_o that_o book_n of_o the_o mortality_n of_o the_o soul_n the_o chief_a subject_n it_o treat_v upon_o be_v to_o prove_v the_o soul_n mortal_a but_o all_o these_o thing_n will_v do_v fox_n no_o good_a nor_o convince_v he_o of_o his_o ignorance_n in_o this_o point_n fox_n have_v hard_a luck_n that_o he_o can_v see_v none_o of_o these_o write_n for_o nothing_o may_v have_v better_o inform_v he_o in_o these_o thing_n but_o the_o book_n of_o the_o

aforesaid_a they_o be_v more_o large_o expound_v but_o to_o give_v a_o little_a further_o answer_v to_o this_o point_n here_o first_o i_o shall_v prove_v that_o breath_n of_o life_n god_n breathe_v into_o adam_n to_o be_v mortal_a and_o do_v die_v let_v the_o reader_n mind_n i_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o breath_n of_o life_n god_n breathe_v into_o adam_n which_o make_v he_o become_v a_o live_a soul_n it_o be_v immortal_a when_o it_o come_v from_o god_n but_o it_o be_v breathe_v into_o a_o earthen_a vessel_n adam_n be_v of_o the_o earth_n he_o be_v earthly_a and_o so_o capable_a to_o be_v overcome_v by_o temptation_n from_o a_o heavenly_a body_n viz._n the_o serpent_n angel_n now_o christ_n be_v the_o lord_n from_o heaven_n therefore_o he_o be_v not_o capable_a to_o be_v overcome_v by_o the_o temptation_n of_o earthly_a body_n viz._n the_o serpent_n angel_n his_o seed_n in_o mortality_n mind_v also_o this_o breath_n of_o life_n which_o god_n breathe_v into_o adam_n wherein_o he_o become_v a_o live_a soul_n it_o be_v immortal_a so_o long_o as_o he_o stand_v in_o obedience_n to_o god_n and_o no_o death_n can_v have_v touch_v he_o but_o this_o i_o must_v tell_v the_o reader_n adam_n can_v have_v have_v no_o other_o heaven_n than_o this_o world_n he_o be_v make_v of_o this_o earth_n he_o shall_v never_o have_v go_v high_a to_o the_o place_n where_o god_n be_v the_o holy_a angel_n and_o all_o spiritual_a body_n be_v there_o adam_n shall_v not_o have_v come_v but_o this_o i_o say_v adam_z shall_v have_v be_v free_v from_o all_o sickness_n disease_n and_o death_n and_o shall_v have_v live_v a_o paradisical_a life_n of_o peace_n upon_o this_o earth_n for_o ever_o if_o he_o have_v keep_v that_o state_n he_o be_v create_v in_o i_o confess_v this_o be_v a_o state_n that_o i_o be_v always_o desirous_a to_o get_v into_o and_o i_o do_v endeavour_n much_o after_o it_o but_o can_v not_o attain_v unto_o it_o but_o when_o the_o revelation_n of_o faith_n do_v arise_v in_o i_o the_o spirit_n of_o faith_n which_o i_o call_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n or_o god_n show_v i_o what_o the_o state_n of_o adam_n be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o innocency_n and_o the_o paradisical_a heaven_n here_o upon_o this_o earth_n but_o when_o the_o spirit_n show_v i_o the_o form_n of_o god_n angel_n and_o other_o creature_n in_o a_o celestial_a state_n in_o the_o celestial_a heaven_n in_o all_o glory_n i_o think_v then_o that_o this_o earthly_a paradise_n though_o it_o have_v be_v for_o ever_o very_o inferior_a and_o below_o that_o which_o i_o be_o sure_a i_o shall_v possess_v but_o to_o the_o matter_n in_o hand_n i_o shall_v make_v it_o appear_v that_o adam_n soul_n do_v die_v though_o it_o be_v the_o breath_n of_o god_n make_v it_o live_v yet_o by_o disobey_v the_o command_n of_o god_n this_o life_n must_v die_v as_o in_o gen._n 2._o and_o verse_n 17._o for_o in_o the_o day_n thou_o eat_v thereof_o thou_o shall_v sure_o die_v be_v not_o this_o plain_a that_o adam_n soul_n do_v die_v notwithstanding_o the_o breath_n of_o life_n god_n breathe_v into_o he_o this_o become_v mortal_a and_o do_v die_v if_o you_o fox_n shall_v say_v the_o soul_n depart_v from_o the_o body_n and_o the_o body_n die_v this_o be_v the_o opinion_n of_o most_o people_n but_o it_o be_v a_o ignorant_a dark_a opinion_n contrary_a to_o sense_n reason_n or_o faith_n for_o if_o the_o soul_n slip_v out_o of_o the_o body_n or_o depart_v from_o it_o that_o can_v be_v say_v to_o die_v but_o to_o part_v one_o from_o another_o for_o a_o season_n beside_o the_o body_n be_v a_o dead_a lump_n fit_a for_o no_o use_n without_o a_o soul_n also_o the_o scripture_n say_v the_o soul_n that_o sin_n shall_v die_v the_o scripture_n do_v not_o say_v the_o soul_n shall_v slip_v out_o of_o the_o body_n that_o sin_n but_o shall_v die_v it_o be_v that_o which_o sin_n that_o must_v die_v and_o do_v you_o fox_n ever_o know_v a_o body_n commit_v sin_n without_o a_o soul_n if_o you_o do_v not_o methinks_v you_o may_v be_v convince_v of_o your_o ignorance_n and_o teach_v the_o people_n no_o more_o that_o lie_v where_o do_v you_o read_v in_o scripture_n that_o ever_o any_o body_n be_v condemn_v to_o die_v we_o read_v in_o scripture_n in_o many_o place_n of_o soul_n that_o shall_v die_v and_o soul_n that_o shall_v be_v cut_v off_o from_o the_o land_n of_o the_o live_n but_o never_o of_o body_n again_o it_o be_v say_v that_o christ_n pour_v out_o his_o soul_n unto_o death_n will_v you_o fox_n be_v so_o wicked_a to_o say_v that_o christ_n do_v not_o die_v he_o pour_v out_o his_o soul_n unto_o death_n death_n take_v christ_n soul_n into_o itself_o that_o be_v death_n swallow_v up_o his_o soul_n it_o be_v not_o say_v he_o give_v his_o body_n for_o a_o ransom_n for_o sin_n but_o he_o give_v his_o soul_n a_o ransom_n for_o sin_n how_o shall_v any_o man_n be_v save_v from_o eternal_a death_n if_o christ_n soul_n do_v not_o die_v but_o i_o know_v the_o quaker_n look_v for_o no_o benefit_n from_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n all_o their_o happiness_n it_o must_v come_v from_o the_o law_n write_v in_o their_o heart_n that_o they_o call_v the_o light_n of_o christ_n in_o they_o for_o they_o know_v no_o other_o christ_n neither_o within_o they_o nor_o without_o they_o for_o this_o i_o say_v they_o that_o can_v believe_v that_o their_o own_o soul_n shall_v die_v can_v believe_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o christ_n do_v die_v and_o so_o they_o can_v receive_v no_o benefit_n by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n the_o reader_n may_v see_v the_o innocence_n in_o the_o quaker_n write_n fox_n say_v he_o do_v believe_v in_o christ_n that_o suffer_v rise_v again_o and_o ascend_v and_o yet_o christ_n soul_n do_v not_o die_v according_a to_o the_o quaker_n faith_n for_o if_o they_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o christ_n soul_n do_v die_v they_o must_v needs_o acknowledge_v their_o own_o soul_n must_v the_o also_o and_o if_o fox_n have_v believe_v the_o one_o he_o will_v have_v believe_v the_o other_o and_o never_o have_v put_v i_o to_o this_o trouble_n to_o answer_v that_o difficult_a point_n as_o fox_n think_v to_o prove_v from_o scripture_n that_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v mortal_a if_o there_o be_v no_o scripture_n at_o all_o experience_n will_v prove_v that_o every_o day_n we_o see_v it_o with_o our_o eye_n also_o i_o will_v ask_v fox_n or_o any_o other_o where_o the_o soul_n of_o lazarus_n be_v those_o four_o day_n his_o body_n be_v in_o the_o grave_n i_o believe_v fox_n
cain_n be_v his_o father_n this_o i_o know_v for_o a_o certain_a truth_n and_o to_o stop_v the_o mouth_n of_o that_o objection_n which_o quaker_n and_o all_o other_o do_v make_v in_o that_o adam_n know_v his_o wife_n eve_n and_o she_o conceive_v and_o bare_a cain_n and_o say_v i_o have_v get_v a_o man_n from_o the_o lord_n to_o this_o i_o say_v she_o be_v with_o child_n by_o the_o angel_n before_o but_o after_o adam_n and_o she_o be_v put_v forth_o of_o the_o garden_n that_o be_v from_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n than_o it_o be_v say_v adam_n know_v his_o wife_n and_o she_o conceive_v and_o bare_a cain_n and_o she_o say_v he_o have_v receive_v a_o man_n from_o the_o lord_n and_o yet_o that_o cain_n be_v none_o of_o adam_n beget_v for_o we_o never_o read_v in_o scripture_n that_o ever_o adam_n beget_v cain_n neither_o be_v adam_n call_v cain_n father_n but_o she_o be_v with_o child_n by_o that_o serpent_n angel_n before_o adam_n know_v she_o but_o he_o be_v but_o a_o cloak_n to_o cover_v her_o sin_n as_o many_o adulterous_a woman_n have_v be_v with_o child_n by_o other_o man_n that_o be_v not_o their_o husband_n yet_o their_o husband_n have_v be_v a_o cloak_n to_o cover_v their_o shame_n and_o the_o child_n have_v be_v count_v her_o husband_n which_o be_v nothing_o so_o this_o many_o can_v experience_n if_o they_o will_v and_o that_o many_o of_o the_o quaker_n too_o when_o they_o be_v ranter_n if_o not_o since_o so_o that_o cain_n be_v none_o of_o adam_n beget_n though_o he_o know_v his_o wife_n eve_n but_o some_o may_v say_v why_o do_v not_o moses_n tell_v we_o these_o thing_n to_o that_o i_o say_v it_o be_v not_o make_v know_v to_o he_o nor_o to_o no_o other_o till_o now_o but_o to_o the_o witness_n of_o the_o spirit_n only_o the_o condition_n of_o eve_n be_v much_o like_o the_o condition_n of_o mary_n the_o virgin_n she_o be_v espouse_v to_o joseph_n before_o she_o be_v with_o child_n by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o joseph_n never_o know_v she_o before_o nor_o after_o she_o be_v with_o child_n by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n till_o that_o child_n jesus_n be_v bear_v therefore_o jesus_n be_v call_v emanuel_n that_o be_v god_n with_o we_o that_o be_v god_n be_v bear_v of_o a_o virgin_n also_o mary_n be_v say_v to_o conceive_v with_o child_n by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n yet_o if_o joseph_n have_v know_v mary_n his_o espouse_a wife_n in_o the_o interim_n of_o her_o conception_n by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n it_o be_v like_a that_o mary_n will_v have_v say_v that_o she_o have_v receive_v her_o child_n jesus_n from_o joseph_n her_o husband_n for_o she_o can_v not_o tell_v which_o get_v it_o if_o such_o a_o thing_n shall_v have_v be_v but_o it_o be_v otherwise_o order_v with_o she_o than_o it_o be_v with_o eve_n for_o adam_n know_v eve_n as_o soon_o as_o the_o angel_n have_v enter_v into_o her_o womb_n and_o then_o adam_n know_v his_o wife_n after_o they_o be_v put_v forth_o from_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n so_o that_o eva_n do_v not_o know_v which_o she_o be_v with_o child_n by_o the_o serpent_n angel_n or_o her_o husband_n adam_n so_o that_o she_o may_v well_o say_v she_o have_v receive_v a_o man_n from_o the_o lord_n but_o if_o eve_n have_v not_o entice_v her_o husband_n to_o know_v she_o that_o be_v eat_v of_o the_o forbid_a fruit_n she_o will_v have_v bring_v forth_o according_a to_o the_o time_n of_o life_n that_o very_o same_o devil_n cain_n flesh_n blood_n and_o bone_n as_o she_o do_v if_o adam_n have_v never_o know_v she_o in_o that_o time_n even_o as_o the_o virgin_n mary_n do_v the_o bless_a jesus_n the_o god_n and_o saviour_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o adam_n with_o flesh_n blood_n and_o bone_n so_o that_o the_o reader_n may_v see_v clear_o that_o adam_n be_v not_o cain_n father_n neither_o do_v he_o beget_v he_o for_o cain_n be_v the_o devil_n become_v flesh_n and_o this_o be_v the_o right_a devil_n and_o you_o fox_n the_o quaker_n be_v one_o of_o his_o son_n beget_v by_o he_o but_o to_o make_v it_o more_o clear_a that_o adam_n be_v not_o cain_n father_n he_o can_v not_o be_v cain_n father_n and_o christ_n father_n also_o now_o we_o find_v by_o the_o scripture_n that_o christ_n do_v own_o adam_n to_o be_v his_o father_n and_o the_o scripture_n do_v own_o cain_n to_o be_v the_o right_a devil_n and_o the_o father_n of_o all_o other_o devil_n as_o i_o have_v show_v before_o and_o that_o adam_n be_v call_v the_o father_n of_o christ_n read_v luke_n the_o three_o to_o the_o last_o verse_n in_o the_o genealogy_n which_o be_v the_o son_n of_o enos_n which_o be_v the_o son_n of_o seth_n which_o be_v the_o son_n of_o adam_n which_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n so_o that_o god_n be_v adam_n father_n as_o he_o be_v god_n and_o adam_n be_v christ_n father_n as_o he_o be_v man_n therefore_o call_v himself_o the_o son_n of_o man._n what_o do_v you_o quaker_n think_v the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_n be_v and_o that_o serpent_n that_o beguile_v eve_n do_v you_o look_v upon_o it_o to_o be_v some_o appletree_n and_o the_o serpent_n to_o be_v a_o ugly_a snake_n and_o so_o this_o snake_n creep_v up_o the_o tree_n and_o get_v a_o apple_n in_o his_o mouth_n and_o the_o woman_n take_v the_o apple_n out_o of_o the_o snake_n mouth_n and_o so_o eat_v of_o it_o and_o give_v her_o husband_n to_o eat_v and_o so_o bring_v themselves_o into_o this_o misery_n and_o all_o mankind_n do_v you_o teach_v your_o hearer_n this_o what_o be_v it_o you_o teach_v that_o your_o hearer_n be_v so_o ignorant_a of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o true_a god_n and_o the_o right_a devil_n and_o of_o the_o scripture_n this_o be_v the_o faith_n that_o other_o religious_a man_n do_v believe_v concern_v the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_n and_o of_o the_o serpent_n but_o you_o quaker_n carry_v it_o in_o a_o allegory_n so_o that_o nothing_o can_v be_v make_v of_o it_o neither_o one_o way_n nor_o other_o but_o all_o professor_n of_o the_o scripture_n do_v own_o that_o the_o tree_n of_o life_n be_v christ_n and_o i_o suppose_v you_o quaker_n do_v so_o too_o if_o you_o grant_v that_o the_o tree_n of_o life_n be_v christ_n than_o this_o tree_n of_o life_n can_v speak_v now_o if_o the_o tree_n of_o life_n do_v speak_v why_o shall_v not_o the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_n speak_v also_o if_o christ_n the_o tree_n of_o life_n because_o he_o give_v life_n to_o every_o thing_n in_o creation_n so_o why_o pray_v not_o the_o angel_n be_v call_v a_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a or_o a_o serpent_n which_o bring_v death_n and_o

do_v ever_o any_o snake_n we_o call_v serpent_n speak_v such_o a_o language_n sure_o no._n i_o marvel_v people_n be_v so_o unwilling_a to_o believe_v that_o the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a

do_v eat_v of_o the_o same_o forbid_a fruit_n now_o as_o adam_n and_o eve_n do_v then_o and_o as_o the_o tree_n be_v pleasant_a to_o the_o eye_n and_o good_a to_o make_v one_o wise_a be_v it_o not_o

this_o make_v many_o to_o know_v good_a and_o evil_n by_o woeful_a experience_n for_o this_o sweetness_n of_o sin_n be_v but_o for_o a_o season_n for_o i_o have_v know_v many_o in_o my_o day_n that_o
