A77832 A vindication of the book called, Some Gospel-truths opened; according to the Scriptures, and the opposition made against it by Edward Borrough, a professed Quaker, (but proved an enemie to the truth) examined and confuted by the word of God. And also, the things that were then laid down, and declared to the world by me, are a second-time born witness to, according to truth: with the answer of Edward Burrough to the quæries then laid down in my book reproved. And also, a plain answer to his quæries, given in simplicitie of soul; and is now also presented to the world, or who else may read, or hear them; to the end (if God will) that truth may be discovered thereby. / by John Bunyan ... Bunyan, John, 1628-1688.; Burrough, Edward, 1634-1662.; Bunyan, John, 1628-1688. Some gospel-truths opened according to the Scriptures. 1657 (1657) Wing B5606; ESTC R170889 81,202 76

say_v that_o i_o be_o confound_v in_o my_o discourse_n and_o so_o leau_v i_o confute_v none_o of_o my_o word_n by_o holy_a scripture_n but_o fall_v a_o rail_n because_o i_o reckon_v pharisees_n and_o

if_o thou_o do_v this_o be_v a_o delusion_n and_o a_o dangerous_a doctrine_n for_o a_o spirit_n have_v not_o flesh_n and_o bone_n and_o so_o have_v the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n now_o it_o may_v be_v
