In which book he hath declared many perverse things against the people of God (called Quakers,) and for so much as is considerable, wherein that people are any way concerned, it is in the power of God here answered, by one who is set for the defence of the Gospel, William Smith.

actual_a worship_n unto_o god_n answ_n the_o mixture_n be_v in_o the_o fall_n but_o who_o be_v regenerate_v and_o bear_v again_o they_o live_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o know_v both_o time_n and_o place_n to_o render_v actual_a worship_n unto_o god_n in_o the_o order_n of_o his_o spirit_n and_o yet_o be_v not_o determine_v to_o time_n or_o place_n by_o limittation_n thou_o say_v if_o the_o god_n of_o this_o world_n will_v have_v all_o professor_n enjoy_v a_o total_a immunity_n from_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o all_o manner_n of_o licentiousness_n allow_v without_o check_n of_o conscience_n let_v he_o then_o make_v a_o every_o day_n sabbath_n answ_n christ_n be_v lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n and_o christian_n enjoy_v a_o every_o day_n sabbath_n in_o christ_n of_o who_o the_o jew_n sabbath_n be_v a_o figure_n and_o they_o be_v in_o his_o righteousness_n and_o do_v not_o allow_v any_o licentiousness_n for_o their_o rest_n be_v holy_a and_o they_o lie_v down_o in_o it_o without_o check_n of_o conscience_n thou_o say_v public_a worship_n speak_v a_o joint_a concurrence_n of_o several_a worshipper_n for_o the_o performance_n of_o the_o same_o action_n of_o religious_a worship_n so_o that_o the_o very_a light_n of_o nature_n say_v thou_o give_v it_o clear_a suffrage_n for_o the_o necessity_n of_o convenient_a place_n of_o meeting_n for_o the_o performance_n of_o the_o public_a worship_n and_o service_n of_o god_n answ_n christian_n do_v joint_o concur_v in_o the_o spirit_n in_o which_o they_o have_v unity_n and_o that_o in_o the_o same_o action_n of_o religious_a worship_n but_o apostate_n can_v do_v so_o and_o though_o they_o meet_v together_o in_o one_o place_n yet_o not_o have_v unity_n in_o the_o spirit_n they_o can_v joint_o concur_v in_o the_o woiship_n of_o god_n and_o so_o the_o place_n and_o worship_n which_o thou_o call_v public_a be_v set_v up_o in_o the_o apostasy_n and_o not_o after_o christ_n the_o christian_n can_v own_v they_o for_o light_n and_o darkness_n have_v no_o communion_n together_o thou_o say_v be_v not_o this_o to_o cry_v up_o inward_a light_n and_o yet_o plain_o to_o live_v in_o darkness_n answ_n this_o be_v to_o cry_v up_o inward_a light_n and_o to_o live_v in_o it_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o we_o deny_v all_o false_a worship_n which_o be_v set_v up_o and_o practise_v in_o the_o darkness_n thou_o say_v i_o have_v neither_o faith_n to_o believe_v nor_o any_o reason_n to_o see_v that_o there_o be_v any_o separate_v i_o add_v and_o consecrate_a place_n for_o divine_a worship_n any_o such_o legal_a or_o ceremonial_a kind_n of_o holiness_n which_o render_v duty_n perform_v there_o more_o acceptable_a unto_o god_n then_o if_o perform_v by_o the_o same_o person_n and_o in_o the_o like_a manner_n in_o any_o other_o place_n answ_n thou_o have_v all_o this_o while_n be_v plead_v for_o that_o separate_a place_n to_o be_v the_o church_n and_o have_v be_v hold_v forth_o a_o special_a

in_o any_o other_o place_n and_o if_o thou_o have_v neither_o faith_n to_o believe_v it_o nor_o reason_n to_o see_v it_o as_o thou_o say_v than_o thou_o may_v have_v spare_v thy_o pain_n in_o write_v thy_o book_n for_o thy_o chief_a aim_n be_v to_o bring_v people_n to_o conform_v to_o the_o worship_n there_o observe_v as_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n in_o his_o church_n which_o if_o duty_n be_v no_o more_o acceptable_a unto_o god_n which_o be_v there_o perform_v then_o if_o perform_v in_o any_o other_o place_n than_o such_o as_o withdraw_v from_o it_o may_v perform_v duty_n as_o acceptable_a unto_o god_n in_o other_o place_n according_a to_o thy_o own_o faith_n and_o reason_n &_o so_o it_o be_v not_o a_o true_a church_n nor_o a_o true_a worship_n for_o the_o worship_n and_o duty_n perform_v in_o the_o true_a church_n which_o be_v in_o god_n be_v only_o accept_v of_o god_n and_o in_o no_o other_o place_n or_o place_n whatsoever_o and_o here_o thou_o have_v pull_v down_o thy_o own_o build_n with_o thy_o own_o hand_n thou_o say_v here_o then_o arise_v that_o ample_a provision_n that_o christ_n have_v make_v for_o his_o special_a presence_n in_o the_o place_n of_o religious_a worship_n viz._n from_o the_o communion_n of_o saint_n meet_v in_o convenient_a separate_a place_n for_o public_a worship_n and_o from_o the_o promise_n annex_v thereto_o and_o not_o from_o any_o peculiar_a holiness_n in_o those_o place_n where_o they_o thus_o meet_v to_o worship_v god_n answ_n the_o communion_n of_o saint_n be_v in_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n and_o so_o say_v john_n if_o we_o walk_v in_o the_o light_n as_o he_o be_v in_o the_o light_n then_o have_v we_o fellowship_n one_o with_o another_o and_o this_o be_v not_o the_o state_n of_o adam_n in_o the_o fall_n neither_o can_v his_o son_n and_o daughter_n perform_v a_o religious_a worship_n unto_o god_n and_o so_o no_o church_n either_o by_o communion_n of_o saint_n or_o the_o place_n itself_o and_o therefore_o such_o worshipper_n have_v not_o the_o promise_n annex_v in_o the_o five_o chapter_n thou_o seem_v to_o hold_v forth_o the_o special_a presence_n of_o god_n in_o public_a worship_n by_o his_o train_n or_o retinue_n of_o angel_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v general_o answ_n that_o god_n be_v present_a in_o his_o public_a worship_n which_o be_v perform_v in_o his_o spirit_n be_v never_o yet_o deny_v by_o we_o but_o thou_o have_v not_o prove_v thy_o worship_n to_o be_v the_o worship_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o we_o say_v that_o god_n presence_n be_v not_o in_o it_o to_o the_o comfort_n of_o the_o worshipper_n and_o this_o may_v answer_v all_o thy_o jumbling_n about_o the_o angel_n for_o thou_o be_v not_o come_v to_o the_o angelical_a ministration_n in_o the_o six_o chapter_n thou_o seem_v to_o hold_v forth_o the_o practical_a inference_n draw_v from_o the_o presence_n of_o angel_n in_o the_o place_n of_o public_a worship_n answ_n when_o he_o bring_v forth_o his_o only-begotten_a son_n into_o the_o world_n he_o say_v and_o let_v all_o the_o angel_n of_o god_n worship_v he_o and_o this_o be_v a_o full_a answer_n to_o this_o whole_a chapter_n in_o the_o seven_o chapter_n thou_o seem_v to_o hold_v forth_o god_n presence_n in_o public_a worship_n by_o his_o word_n with_o some_o other_o particular_n relate_v to_o that_o matter_n which_o i_o may_v mention_v and_o answer_v if_o i_o do_v intend_v largeness_n but_o find_v the_o whole_a matter_n of_o thy_o book_n to_o lie_v chief_o as_o to_o church_n worship_n ministry_n and_o practice_n as_o they_o general_o now_o stand_v i_o shall_v not_o make_v needless_a repetition_n by_o answer_v the_o same_o thing_n over_o and_o over_o yet_o this_o i_o say_v unto_o this_o chapter_n that_o god_n presence_n by_o his_o word_n be_v in_o his_o worship_n and_o all_o that_o worship_v he_o aright_o he_o teach_v they_o by_o his_o word_n but_o that_o thy_o preach_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n or_o that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v in_o thy_o preach_n or_o his_o presence_n by_o his_o word_n in_o that_o public_a worship_n through_o they_o preach_v that_o thou_o have_v not_o any_o where_o prove_v and_o therefore_o it_o fall_v of_o itself_o in_o the_o eight_o chapter_n thou_o seem_v to_o hold_v forth_o practical_a inference_n that_o teacher_n of_o the_o word_n must_v not_o corrupt_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o that_o it_o must_v be_v own_v as_o god_n word_n and_o receive_v and_o mingle_v with_o faith_n and_o practise_v in_o obedience_n answ_n i_o answer_v general_o that_o they_o who_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o word_n which_o be_v immortal_a they_o do_v not_o corrupt_v it_o but_o be_v true_a and_o faithful_a minister_n of_o it_o and_o many_o have_v receive_v it_o as_o it_o be_v indeed_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o they_o mingle_v it_o with_o faith_n and_o practice_n it_o in_o obedience_n and_o such_o be_v doer_n of_o the_o word_n and_o be_v bless_v but_o thy_o tongue_n must_v learn_v silence_n and_o thou_o must_v know_v a_o new_a birth_n and_o a_o new_a tongue_n before_o thou_o can_v true_o minister_v the_o word_n of_o god_n in_o the_o nine_o chapter_n thou_o seem_v to_o hold_v forth_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n in_o his_o worship_n by_o his_o minister_n and_o that_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n must_v be_v hear_v though_o from_o ungodly_a preacher_n and_o that_o minister_n be_v god_n ambassador_n and_o steward_n of_o the_o mystery_n of_o god_n and_o that_o god_n and_o man_n work_v together_o in_o the_o conversion_n of_o soul_n and_o production_n of_o save_a faith_n ans_fw-fr thou_o say_v even_o
