A23660	The danger of enthusiasm discovered in an epistle to the Quakers : in which 'tis endeavoured, to convince them of being guilty of changing God's method of bringing men to salvation / by one who is no more an enemy to their opinions, than their opinions are enemies to them themselves.	Allen, William, d. 1686.	1674 (1674)	Wing A1058; ESTC R13150	64,102	137

obedience_n to_o he_o for_o god_n say_v one_o of_o they_o who_o command_v the_o light_n to_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n have_v shine_v into_o our_o heart_n to_o give_v the_o light_n of_o the_o

12_o 13._o now_o we_o have_v receive_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o world_n but_o the_o spirit_n which_o be_v of_o god_n that_o we_o may_v know_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v free_o give_v to_o we_o of_o god_n which_o thing_n also_o we_o speak_v not_o with_o the_o word_n which_o man_n wisdom_n teach_v but_o which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n teach_v and_o beside_o this_o of_o internal_a and_o

that_o by_o the_o process_n of_o this_o discourse_n you_o be_v bring_v to_o this_o either_o to_o say_v that_o all_o man_n to_o who_o the_o gospel_n come_v be_v enlighten_v by_o christ_n with_o the_o

to_o grant_v that_o some_o man_n in_o the_o world_n be_v not_o enlighten_v by_o christ_n without_o be_v ●aught_v by_o outward_a mean_n to_o know_v what_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o believe_v upon_o

immediate_a and_o mediate_a revelation_n or_o instruction_n if_o be_v reduce_v to_o this_o straight_a you_o shall_v be_v so_o absurd_a as_o to_o choose_v to_o say_v that_o all_o those_o under_o the_o

do_v it_o yet_o the_o scripture_n as_o well_o as_o all_o experience_n will_v detect_v your_o folly_n in_o so_o say_v for_o i_o have_v prove_v in_o my_o propositiion_n to_o which_o i_o refer_v you_o that_o god_n way_n &_o method_n of_o proceed_v with_o man_n in_o justify_v or_o condemn_v they_o will_v be_v according_a to_o their_o obedience_n to_o or_o disobedience_n against_o that_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o they_o have_v hear_v preach_v by_o man_n to_o they_o go_v preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o every_o creature_n say_v our_o saviour_n he_o that_o believe_v not_o shall_v be_v damn_v that_o believe_v not_o that_o gospel_n so_o preach_v and_o make_v know_v to_o they_o by_o preach_v mat._n 16._o 16._o and_o the_o apostle_n suppose_v it_o impossible_a for_o the_o generality_n of_o man_n to_o believe_v that_o have_v not_o hear_v of_o christ_n in_o the_o way_n of_o preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o they_o and_o conclude_v that_o those_o that_o do_v believe_v be_v bring_v to_o

you_o see_v paul_n know_v of_o no_o such_o way_n to_o propagate_v the_o faith_n after_o it_o be_v once_o set_v on_o foot_n in_o a_o extraordinary_a way_n if_o he_o have_v he_o will_v not_o have_v
