A87656	False judgments reprehended and a just reproof to Tho. Everndon, and his associates and fellow-travellers, for the false and rash judgment T.E. gave against G.K. and his faithful Friends and brethren, at the publick meeting at Philadelphia, the 27. of 10. mon. 1692. And also for their bringing with them their paquet of letters (Saul-like to Damascus) containing the false judgment of a faction of men, calling themselves the Yearly-Meeting at Tredaven in Maryland the 4 of 8. mon 92. And another false judgment contained in another letter from William Richardson, all which will return upon their own heads.	Keith, George, 1639?-1716.; Budd, Thomas, 1648-1699.	1692 (1692)	Wing K164; ESTC W9991	7,376	12

have this word of Comfort further to deliver to you my Brethren from the Lord That the Judgments of the Lord will overtake them that have printed and published these things to the Dishonour of God and his Truth c. Where Note first That he said He came up to enquire whether these things were so or not and yet near 3 Months before he came here to see whether these things were so or not he and his Companions believed Reports against us in Maryland and signed the said Judgment against us Now pray consider whether T. E. and Companions were the Impartial men they pretend to be to enquire and judge of this great Controversie when 1ct before they came here they gave their Judgment against us upon bare Report 2ly When they came here before they had time to make due enquiry viz. in less then 48 hours to say That he found his Brethhen sound in the Faith and That these were Lyes and Calumnies cast upon them was great rashness First they condemned us and then T. E. said he came some hundreds of Miles to enquire whether these things for which they had condemned us were true or not Was ever greater Folly acted by men pretending to Reason Conscience and the highest Perfection in Christianity Our Souls pity them and heartily desire that they might see their Rashness and Repent But to demonstrate that T. Everndon had but one ear to hear or at 〈◊〉 to give credit to one party in prejudice to the other pray note these following Observations Observ 1st That at the said Meeting 27 of 10 mon. before T. E. bore his Testimony John Wilsford declared a long time concerning the Faith of Christ saying He had the TRVE Fa●●h of Christ as he dyed and rose again and ascended and was our Mediator in * But J●●● Wilsford ●as not told us whe●●er that heaven be 〈◊〉 ●in or without into which the Man Christ is go● Rob. Young says 't is within us Heaven before he came among Friends and even from his Childhood he had that True Faith but yet that Faith did not purifie him nor gather him to God but he remained in the dark and his Religion was only an outside Profession c. Observ 2ly That T. E. did not only hear J. W. speak this but he also heard G. K. reprove divers things in his Doctrine and prove it to be false unsound especially that he said He had the true Faith of Christ as he dyed and rose again and yet that Faith did not purifie him c. This said G. K. is unsound Doctrine to call that the true Faith of Christ that doth not purifie nor gather to God nor bring a man out of the dark and to have no more of Religion than an outside Profession this is not the true Faith but a false Faith for the true Faith purifieth the Heart and gathers unto God and brings him that hath it to know the Kirr●d and inward Life of Religion If he had said he had not the true Faith of Christ crucified c. but a dead literal and notional Faith of it he might have said true but to say he had the true Faith and yet that it did not purifie him doth prove him to be yet ignorant of the true Faith and that he is yet in the dark There is a true and a false Faith both of Christ without of Christ within the False is only Literal Historical and Notional and many have no other but a bare literal historical and notional Faith of Christ within as others have of Christ without they say they believe that Christ is in them only because they read it and hear it preached but this Faith is dead and is not true more than a dead Picture of a Man is a true Man but the True Faith of Christ both without and within is a living fruitful Faith wrought in them who have it by the Power Spirit of Christ accompanying the Preaching of it and the Testimony of the holy Scriptures concerning the same Observ 3dly That at the same Meeting F. E. heard John Hutchens grosly pervert that place of Scripture 1 Thes 4.15 We which are alive and remain to the Coming of the Lord shall be caught up to meet the Lord in the Air c. which most evidently relates to his coming in his glorified Body without us at the great Day of Judgment whereas J. ● appl●ed it wholly to mens being caught up in the Spirit grosly confounding Christ the Son the Heir with the Air which he also heard G. K. 〈◊〉 contradict and reprove Obser 4ly That the Printed Judgment concerning Will Stockdale which is a true Copy of the Original saith That it was proved by two Witnesses that he said G. K. preached two Christs because he preached Faith in Christ within without is evidence sufficient of his unsoundness and yet he was all along allow'd to preach and pray in Meetings Obs 5ly That by their printed Judgment concerning T. Fit●●●●●● its evident that they clear T. F. and condemn G. K. for saying 〈◊〉 Light is not sufficient without 〈◊〉 thing else to wit the Man Christ Jesus and what he did suffered for us on Earth and what he is now doing for us in Heaven and which at the next Monthly Meeting The L●o●●● at the Month of the Meeting acknowledged They knew G. K. meant the Man Christ Jesus and what he did and suffered for us and what he 〈◊〉 now a doing for us to be that something else thereby denying the Man Christ Jesus from having any part or share in our Salvation Obser 6ly That both on the first day before in the publick Meeting and in the evening before this Meeting G. K. gave T. E. and Companions a faithful account how John Delavall had accused him of being guilty of Heresie and Error in a Fundamental Doctrine for asserting that the Light within is not sufficient without some-what else thereby excluding the Man Christ Jesus without us Now after this which T. E. could not but be sensible of for him to say in such a great Auditory That he had made enquiry and sound his Brethren sound in the Faith and these things in our printed Books were Lyes and Calumnies bewrayeth his great weakness in this as Folly and Rashness in his Signing a Paper of Judgment against us in Maryland upon bare Report And therefore it is manifest that T. Everndon has been very imprudent in the management of this weighty Affair thus to clear the guilty and condemn the Innocent and that in the Name of the Lord. Oh! the righteous Iudge of the whole Earth who knows the secrets of all hearts will judge for these things And in private Conference that Evening aforesaid the principal thing for which T. E. blamed G. K. was for making known to the World the Errors of some called Preachers among the Quakers here saying he had made Friends stink and become the Song of the Drunkards But G. K.
