A70157 A just defence and vindication of Gospel ministers and Gospel ordinances against the Quakers many false accusations, slanders and reproaches. In ansvver to John Horwood his letter, and E.B. his book, called, A just and lawful tryal of the ministers and teachers of this age, and several others. Proving the ministers calling and maintenance just and lawful, and the doctrine of perfection by free justification, preached by them, agreeable to the scriptures. VVith the Quakers objections answered. And the Quakers perfection by hearkning to, and obeying a light within them, proved contrary to the scriptures. And their practices in ten particulars proved contrary to the commands and examples of Christ and his apostles. By a lover of gospel ministers and gospel ordinances.

that_o none_o can_v be_v perfect_o free_v from_o sin_n while_o they_o live_v here_o for_o answer_v to_o which_o i_o say_v that_o you_o quaker_n neither_o know_v nor_o understand_v what_o our_o

shall_v make_v good_a what_o i_o have_v write_v by_o scripture_n 13._o that_o it_o be_v a_o duty_n incumbent_n to_o all_o good_a and_o bad_a to_o pray_v unto_o god_n for_o his_o blessing_n be_v any_o

all_o the_o earth_n make_v a_o joyful_a noise_n unto_o the_o lord_n 2._o all_o the_o land_n come_v before_o his_o presence_n with_o sing_v 32._o sing_v unto_o the_o lord_n all_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o earth_n o_o sing_v praise_n unto_o the_o lord_n now_o by_o all_o the_o earth_n all_o the_o land_n all_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v all_o the_o people_n of_o the_o earth_n 3._o land_n and_o kingdom_n and_o sure_o all_o be_v not_o saint_n in_o they_o 4._o the_o lord_n be_v a_o great_a god_n and_o a_o great_a king_n above_o all_o god_n and_o therefore_o make_v a_o joyful_a noise_n to_o he_o with_o psalm_n he_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v above_o all_o god_n and_o therefore_o sing_v unto_o he_o all_o the_o earth_n so_o that_o god_n greatness_n and_o goodness_n in_o his_o work_n of_o creation_n and_o providence_n that_o concern_v all_o the_o son_n of_o man_n in_o general_a be_v ground_n of_o prayer_n and_o praise_n 21._o the_o lord_n give_v food_n to_o all_o flesh_n therefore_o let_v all_o flesh_n bless_v his_o holy_a name_n let_v every_o thing_n that_o have_v breath_n wicked_a man_n have_v breath_n praise_v the_o lord_n for_o his_o mighty_a

the_o wicked_a as_o well_o as_o the_o godly_a and_o therefore_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o pray_v to_o god_n and_o praise_n god_n as_o well_o as_o the_o godly_a 25._o and_o therefore_o the_o lord_n threaten_v that_o he_o will_v pour_v out_o his_o wrath_n upon_o the_o heathen_n and_o all_o the_o family_n that_o call_v not_o on_o his_o name_n what_o then_o shall_v become_v of_o you_o quaker_n that_o not_o only_o neglect_v this_o duty_n of_o prayer_n and_o praise_v god_n in_o your_o family_n but_o sit_v down_o to_o meat_n and_o rise_v from_o it_o more_o like_a swine_n then_o christian_n but_o you_o teach_v man_n so_o to_o do_v tell_v they_o that_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n and_o so_o teach_v man_n to_o sin_n while_o you_o teach_v they_o to_o disobey_v god_n command_n 14._o the_o heathen_a that_o be_v in_o the_o ship_n with_o jonah_n may_v rise_v in_o judgement_n against_o you_o for_o they_o by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n know_v that_o god_n be_v to_o be_v pray_v unto_o and_o the_o heathen_a nincvite_v repent_v proclaim_v a_o fast_n and_o sure_o pray_v as_o well_o as_o fast_v 10_o and_o god_n repent_v of_o the_o evil_a that_o he_o have_v say_v he_o will_v do_v unto_o they_o also_o wicked_a ahab_n when_o he_o humble_v himself_o before_o the_o lord_n by_o fast_v and_o prayer_n the_o lord_n say_v to_o eliah_n 29._o see_v thou_o how_o ahab_n humble_v himself_o before_o i_o i_o will_v not_o bring_v this_o evil_n in_o his_o day_n but_o you_o object_n that_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o wicked_a be_v a_o abomination_n unto_o the_o lord_n and_o so_o their_o praise_n for_o what_o have_v thou_o to_o do_v to_o take_v my_o name_n in_o thy_o mouth_n and_o hate_v to_o be_v reform_v i_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v say_v also_o by_o the_o same_o prophet_n that_o the_o plow_a of_o the_o ploughman_n be_v sin_n and_o it_o be_v a_o truth_n that_o the_o eat_n and_o drink_v of_o every_o man_n out_o of_o christ_n be_v sin_n will_v you_o therefore_o say_v that_o wicked_a man_n ought_v not_o to_o plough_v i_o fear_v than_o we_o shall_v want_v corn_n and_o if_o wicked_a man_n shall_v refrain_v from_o eat_v and_o drink_v will_v they_o not_o strave_n and_o will_v not_o they_o then_o be_v guilty_a of_o their_o own_o death_n and_o so_o be_v self_n murderer_n but_o you_o must_v learn_v to_o distinguish_v between_o action_n moral_o good_a and_o divine_o good_a and_o between_o action_n civil_o good_a in_o themselves_o and_o divine_o good_a now_o to_o plough_v or_o do_v any_o other_o action_n or_o work_n of_o a_o man_n calling_n be_v good_a civil_a moral_a work_n in_o themselves_o and_o yet_o the_o person_n do_v they_o be_v not_o justify_v they_o be_v not_o good_a unto_o he_o because_o whatsoever_o be_v not_o of_o faith_n be_v sin_n will_v you_o therefore_o teach_v that_o no_o wicked_a man_n ought_v to_o do_v the_o work_n of_o his_o call_n nor_o eat_v nor_o drink_v because_o they_o be_v sin_n to_o he_o in_o do_v they_o the_o reason_n be_v the_o same_o in_o moral_a work_n to_o hear_v read_v pray_v sing_v psalm_n and_o give_v of_o thanks_o they_o be_v work_v moral_o good_a be_v command_v by_o the_o lord_n but_o the_o person_n do_v they_o be_v not_o justify_v they_o be_v not_o good_a to_o he_o but_o yet_o you_o may_v no_o more_o neglect_v these_o duty_n than_o the_o civil_a duty_n of_o your_o call_n for_o if_o a_o wicked_a man_n neglect_v these_o moral_a duty_n he_o sin_v more_o than_o in_o do_v of_o they_o for_o in_o do_v of_o they_o he_o may_v have_v a_o temporary_a good_a as_o ahab_n and_o the_o ninevite_n and_o we_o read_v that_o when_o the_o young_a man_n in_o the_o gospel_n say_v to_o christ_n 21._o all_o these_o have_v i_o keep_v from_o my_o youth_n that_o jesus_n behold_v he_o love_v he_o so_o that_o christ_n do_v show_v his_o like_n and_o approve_v of_o those_o moral_a work_n which_o he_o say_v he_o have_v do_v wherefore_o to_o conclude_v this_o answer_n i_o believe_v that_o although_o a_o wicked_a man_n can_v be_v save_v by_o his_o do_v work_v moral_o good_a in_o themselves_o yet_o he_o shall_v have_v less_o torment_n in_o hell_n then_o those_o that_o do_v they_o not_o for_o he_o that_o know_v his_o master_n will_n and_o do_v it_o not_o shall_v be_v beat_v with_o many_o stripe_n i_o have_v make_v a_o little_a digression_n in_o answer_v these_o objection_n because_o i_o desire_v to_o take_v in_o all_o your_o objection_n by_o the_o way_n and_o answer_v they_o hope_v you_o will_v not_o be_v offend_v see_v yourselves_o be_v often_o guilty_a of_o the_o same_o fault_n if_o it_o be_v a_o fault_n i_o aim_v only_o at_o your_o good_a to_o rectify_v your_o judgement_n but_o you_o object_n that_o in_o our_o assembly_n many_o sing_v they_o know_v not_o what_o and_o many_o do_v know_v that_o they_o sing_v many_o of_o the_o psalm_n that_o be_v not_o suitable_a to_o their_o condition_n nor_o suitable_a to_o the_o time_n and_o season_n as_o when_o they_o sing_v o_o lord_n i_o be_o not_o puff_v in_o mind_n they_o be_v proud_a and_o my_o heart_n desire_v be_v bend_v thy_o law_n to_o keep_v when_o their_o heart_n be_v against_o the_o law_n this_o i_o have_v hear_v some_o of_o you_o often_o object_n unto_o i_o and_o other_o against_o sing_v of_o psalm_n that_o the_o ignorance_n of_o man_n in_o discern_v the_o true_a matter_n answ_n or_o the_o right_a manner_n of_o a_o duty_n do_v not_o exempt_v they_o
