Concerning the Scriptures ' Geo. Fox says as quoted The Scriptures are not Infallible nor Divine but Humane Note 〈◊〉 there are no such words in the place Cited altho' it is elsewhere notwithstanding the Attestation of the three Doctors and five Masters of Art and Rectors and G. K's Affirmation to the Truth as Cited However hear G. K. G. K 's Truth 's Defence p. 53. I Answer That not only the Old Testament but even the Writings or Letter of the New Testament may be called a Killing Letter to those that remain alienated from the Spirit that quickens even as Origen hath formerly Taught in his Commentary on Leviticus Not only saith he in the Old Testament is found the Killing Letter there is also in the New Testament the Letter which Killeth him who doth not spiritually attend unto the things which are spoken Now if any go from the Spirit that only makes the true Gospel Administration and set up the Letter or Writing of the Apostles in the room of the same these Writings of the Apostles do eventually become a killing Letter no less than that of the Law and can no more give Life or make Perfect than the outward Law could Ibid. 59. The Translations of the Scripture the which Translations are commonly called Scripture have divers Additions which Men have added without any pretence to Divine Inspiration The Letter or External Form of the Writing is not properly the Word of God 54. By the Word of God in the Scriptures is not understood the Letter but Christ 49. Thus far G. K. And will he now say Only the bare Writing or Characters consisting of Ink and Paper is properly the Word of God 47. and are Infallible Divine and not Humane If G. K. will now so assert let him Concerning Christ's Coming to Iudgment Is quoted G. W. as followeth Call What is the Glory of the Father in which Christ's Coming is Is it visible to the carnal Eye and ' where is that Coming to be Is it now to be looked for outwardly G. K. saith G K 's Rector Cor. p. 16. I do seriously and truly tell thee as I faithfully believe that Christ did locally Ascend upwards into the Heavens whence also he shall Descend at the time of the Restitution of all things And if G. K. hath Retracted this the Quakers see no cause to Retract nor yet to affirm that Christ's Coming is Visible to the carnal Eye Concerning Heaven and Hell Call There is none have a Glory and Heaven but within them And in Answer to this and what W. Penn saith hear G. K. saith Rector Cor. p. 14. This is no great Riddle nor Paradox to the least Child of the New Jerusalem Paul indeed was before in Heaven and so is every Regenerate Man Note If every Regenerate Man is in Heaven then he hath a Heaven within him or hath a Peace and Joy in him from Christ. at present Concerning doing Servile Work on the Lord's Day and the Moral Law We might wave till G. K. brought plain and express Scripture and proved by plain and express Scripture and in express Scripture Terms that the doing of any Servile Work on the 1st Day of the Week called here the Lord's Day is forbid and by express Scripture proves the 1st Day of the Week and none of the other Days is called the Lord's Day and that Christ is not the Life of a Christian or the true Christians Life and doth by express Scripture and in plain and express Scripture Terms prove that it 's an Article of Faith or Doctrine in common to be believed but he may expect some Quotations to that Head and seeing in this Sheet use is made of a Quotation out of an Appeal as it 's said out of a Quakers Book concerning the Church of England's Ministry we refer the Reader to a Sheet Intituled Mr. Geo. Keith's Account of a National Church and the Ministry of the Church of England and to the Animadversions thereon and also to the Book Intituled The Portraiture of Mr. Geo. Keith wherein it doth appear what Account G. K. gives concerning the Ministry of the Church of England and the Dissenting Ministry and let him now if he will own or deny them to be Heretical and Antichristian so far as they reflect upon the Persons of our Opposers and most Heretical From the foregoing and following Quotations it will appear what G. K's Belief was and the Quakers is concerning the Ten Articles 1st Concerning Infallibility G. K. saith G. K 's Truth 's Defence p 64. How unreasonable this Consequence is I leave unto sober Men to Judge as to Conclude because Men are * It 's supposed this should be Fallible Infallible that therefore the Dictate and Light of God's Spirit in Men is Fallible also Was not Peter Fallible in some Cases Yea Did not he fail sorely as well as G. K. when he denied his Master Doth it therefore follow that the Dictate or Light of God's Spirit in him was Fallible To say that they have no Infallible Spirit the plain English of which is that the Spirit of God and ' God himself is Fallible saith G. K. in his Presb. and Ind. Visible Churches p. 47. Concerning the Holy Scriptures and their being the Only Rule of Faith and Practice or to try Spirits c. G. K. saith Truth 's Defence p. 65. It 's no Repugnancy that one and the same thing be Superiour and Inferiour in different Respects and as it respecteth different Subjects But there is no necessity to understand the Dictate and Light of God's Spirit in divers Men to be Superiour and Inferiour when it Examines and is Examined for one equal may be a Measure or Rule to another yea one thing may be said to be a Rule unto it self according to that common Maxim or Principle Linea recta est norma sui Obliqui i. e. A right Line is a Rule of it self and also of that which is Crooked The Power of God is the Rule For none know truly the Scriptures p. 68. but they who know the Power of God and therefore that Power which is Life Light and Spirit is the more Principal and Original Rule Concerning the Trinity G. K. saith G. K 's Serious App. p. 2. The only Exception we have is against that Unscriptural Term or Phrase of Three Persons or a Trinity ' of Persons And therefore let all Men know G. K's Presb and Ind. visib Churches p. 58. to whose hand this may come That the People called Quakers never denied but on the contrary faithfully believed and do still faithfully believe whatever is Recorded in the holy Scriptures of that great Mystery to wit That God is One and that the Father the Son and the Holy Ghost is that One Only True and Living God the Creator and Upholder of all Concerning Christ and his Blood G. K. saith Ibid. p. 58. The Lord Jesus Christ whom the Apostles preached that died for our Sins and rose again for our Justification is ascended and gone into Heaven is that alone Son of God and that his Body was
