the_o prophet_n muggleton_n epistle_n to_o the_o believer_n of_o the_o commission_n touch_v the_o rebellion_n occasion_v by_o the_o nine_o assertion_n thus_o i_o have_v give_v a_o answer_n to_o all_o those_o nine_o assertion_n which_o william_n meadgate_n have_v draw_v up_o as_o a_o charge_n against_o i_o say_v they_o be_v contrary_a to_o all_o truth_n and_o against_o all_o sober_a reason_n and_o now_o i_o shall_v speak_v a_o few_o word_n unto_o he_o and_o the_o rest_n of_o believer_n as_o follow_v and_o because_o one_o of_o the_o conspirator_n in_o the_o rebellion_n have_v repent_v of_o his_o rebellion_n and_o ask_v forgiveness_n before_o it_o be_v too_o late_o i_o forgive_v he_o his_o trespass_n against_o i_o and_o against_o god_n namely_o thomas_n burton_n he_o do_v well_o to_o agree_v with_o his_o adversary_n while_o he_o be_v in_o the_o way_n for_o the_o prophet_n be_v a_o adversary_n to_o all_o those_o that_o rebel_n against_o god_n and_o this_o i_o will_v have_v all_o rebel_n to_o know_v though_o too_o late_o that_o obedience_n be_v better_a than_o sacrifice_n viz._n obedience_n to_o the_o prophet_n be_v better_a than_o all_o the_o legal_a righteousness_n you_o have_v perform_v between_o man_n and_o man_n all_o your_o day_n yet_o this_o aught_o to_o be_v do_v but_o not_o to_o leave_v the_o other_o undo_v and_o you_o may_v know_v that_o rebellion_n be_v as_o the_o sin_n of_o witchcraft_n for_o rebellion_n against_o the_o prophet_n be_v rebellion_n against_o god_n for_o when_o king_n saul_n rebel_v against_o the_o prophet_n samuel_n word_n he_o rebel_v against_o god_n for_o it_o be_v the_o prophet_n samuel_n that_o give_v the_o king_n a_o command_n and_o it_o be_v he_o that_o reprove_v the_o king_n for_o his_o rebellion_n and_o disobedience_n for_o god_n never_o speak_v to_o the_o king_n nor_o give_v sentence_n upon_o he_o it_o be_v the_o prophet_n only_o and_o not_o god_n and_o because_o the_o king_n do_v mind_n god_n only_o and_o not_o the_o prophet_n as_o you_o have_v do_v therefore_o that_o great_a evil_n do_v befall_v he_o he_o be_v reject_v of_o god_n for_o rebel_a against_o the_o prophet_n samuel_n and_o so_o be_v you_o reject_v of_o god_n for_o rebel_a against_o the_o prophet_n now_o alive_a now_o ought_v not_o the_o king_n to_o have_v mind_v the_o prophet_n samuel_n only_o and_o not_o god_n and_o because_o he_o do_v mind_n god_n only_o and_o reject_v the_o prophet_n as_o you_o have_v do_v therefore_o that_o great_a evil_n do_v befall_v he_o for_o he_o mind_v god_n only_o in_o that_o he_o think_v to_o please_v god_n better_o by_o offer_v up_o the_o best_a of_o cattle_n in_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n he_o think_v it_o better_o to_o mind_n god_n only_o than_o the_o prophet_n word_n but_o how_o do_v god_n reject_v he_o for_o disobey_v the_o prophet_n and_o his_o sacrifice_n be_v reject_v also_o now_o have_v not_o saul_n better_a have_v mind_v the_o prophet_n only_o then_o will_v it_o have_v be_v well_o with_o he_o but_o he_o mind_v god_n only_o and_o disobey_v and_o rebel_n against_o the_o prophet_n what_o a_o woeful_a effect_n do_v fall_v upon_o he_o and_o so_o it_o will_v upon_o all_o that_o rebel_n against_o prophet_n thus_o it_o be_v with_o man_n that_o think_v themselves_o more_o wise_a and_o righteous_a than_o their_o teacher_n for_o whoever_o disobey_v a_o true_a prophet_n disobey_v god_n and_o it_o be_v so_o account_v of_o god_n therefore_o it_o be_v good_a for_o man_n to_o mind_n the_o prophet_n only_o and_o pin_v their_o faith_n upon_o his_o sleeve_n or_o else_o there_o can_v be_v no_o true_a peace_n and_o safety_n why_o because_o no_o man_n can_v come_v unto_o god_n to_o reason_n and_o dispute_v with_o he_o but_o by_o his_o prophet_n only_o this_o have_v be_v the_o way_n god_n have_v walk_v in_o all_o age_n and_o now_o i_o be_v the_o last_o prophet_n of_o all_o god_n have_v put_v i_o in_o his_o place_n here_o upon_o earth_n and_o have_v raise_v i_o up_o as_o he_o do_v that_o good_a man_n joseph_n gen._n the_o last_o and_o the_o 9th_o verse_n who_o say_v unto_o his_o brethren_n fear_v not_o for_o i_o be_o in_o the_o place_n of_o god_n and_o in_o the_o 21_o verse_n fear_n not_o for_o i_o will_v nourish_v you_o and_o he_o comfort_v they_o and_o speak_v kind_o unto_o they_o so_o god_n have_v raise_v i_o up_o to_o be_v his_o last_o prophet_n and_o seat_v i_o in_o his_o place_n here_o to_o nourish_v his_o people_n who_o have_v believe_v his_o prophet_n report_n with_o spiritual_a and_o heavenly_a knowledge_n for_o true_a prophet_n true_a apostle_n true_a minister_n have_v make_v saint_n in_o all_o age_n so_o that_o without_o these_o no_o saint_n at_o all_o they_o may_v be_v elect_a vessel_n but_o not_o saint_n for_o no_o man_n or_o woman_n can_v proper_o be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o saint_n except_o they_o come_v actual_o to_o believe_v in_o a_o true_a prophet_n true_a apostle_n or_o true_a minister_n of_o christ_n and_o far_o i_o say_v that_o whoever_o do_v not_o well_o by_o that_o law_n write_v in_o his_o heart_n and_o do_v not_o stand_v in_o awe_n of_o that_o and_o fear_v to_o offend_v that_o law_n of_o conscience_n as_o if_o god_n himself_o do_v stand_v by_o and_o take_v notice_n of_o all_o his_o action_n therefore_o he_o do_v well_o because_o god_n eye_n be_v over_o he_o else_o not_o i_o say_v all_o his_o well_o do_v be_v but_o eye_n service_n and_o respect_v of_o god_n no_o more_o than_o the_o cut_n of_o a_o dog_n neck_n and_o that_o man_n be_v in_o the_o depth_n of_o darkness_n who_o will_v do_v nothing_o that_o be_v good_a except_o god_n do_v take_v notice_n of_o he_o to_o reward_v he_o for_o every_o good_a deed_n he_o do_v but_o if_o he_o do_v evil_a than_o he_o desire_v god_n to_o take_v no_o notice_n of_o it_o but_o blot_v it_o out_o of_o his_o remembrance_n as_o if_o god_n be_v behold_v to_o man_n to_o do_v well_o when_o there_o be_v a_o blessing_n in_o the_o deed_n do_v and_o a_o curse_n in_o evil_a do_v but_o this_o i_o say_v if_o there_o be_v no_o god_n to_o reward_v the_o good_a nor_o to_o punish_v the_o evil_a yet_o can_v not_o i_o do_v any_o otherwise_o then_o i_o do_v for_o i_o do_v well_o not_o because_o i_o expect_v any_o reward_n from_o god_n or_o refrain_v from_o evil_a because_o god_n will_v punish_v i_o or_o that_o he_o do_v mind_v i_o in_o it_o but_o i_o do_v well_o to_o please_v the_o law_n write_v in_o my_o heart_n so_o that_o i_o may_v not_o be_v accuse_v by_o that_o law_n in_o my_o conscience_n as_o god_n have_v please_v for_o his_o watchman_n to_o tell_v i_o when_o i_o do_v well_o so_o i_o be_o justify_v by_o faith_n in_o god_n in_o my_o own_o conscience_n and_o be_v not_o condemn_v by_o the_o law_n write_v in_o my_o heart_n i_o have_v boldness_n to_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n neither_o do_v i_o refrain_v from_o evil_a for_o fear_v of_o god_n person_n see_v i_o and_o he_o see_v i_o will_v punish_v i_o but_o i_o refrain_v from_o evil_a because_o the_o law_n write_v in_o my_o heart_n see_v all_o my_o do_n and_o that_o watchman_n god_n have_v set_v there_o to_o watch_v i_o will_v tell_v god_n of_o all_o my_o do_n so_o that_o god_n need_v not_o trouble_v himself_o to_o watch_v over_o every_o man_n action_n himself_o for_o he_o have_v place_v his_o law_n a_o watchman_n in_o every_o man_n and_o woman_n to_o give_v notice_n of_o all_o their_o do_n whether_o good_a
