A66530	The lying spirit and false aspertions turned home again, or, An answer to two reviling letters about the peoples right to tythes sent to the people call'd Quakers in the Vail of Bellvier by Clement Nedham, a Presbyterian, who writes himself, a farmer in the county of Leicester : wherein I have shew'd according to scriptures, what spirit it was that brought up tythes among the Christians, so call'd : and that those that brought them up since Christ put an end to them were not in their right senses, but were made drunk by drinking of that spirit of error that made them do they knew not what, and consequently their examples not to be followed : with an addition, shewing, that the impropriator hath less right to tythes then the poor or priest, if less can be : with a few words in love to all those that send their sons to those places called universities, with an intent to make them ministers : also a copy of a letter sent to G.N. in manuscript, wherein his unhansom and unchristian-like dealings may be seen : with a short postcript to the reader / by J.W. ...

chargeable_a to_o any_o 1_o thes_n 2.9_o act_n 20.33_o 34._o then_o i_o also_o believe_v that_o if_o they_o be_v so_o call_v forth_o in_o the_o service_n of_o the_o lord_n from_o their_o outward_a

or_o where_o they_o have_v plant_v a_o vineyard_n they_o may_v eat_v fruit_n or_o where_o they_o have_v feed_v a_o flock_n they_o may_v eat_v milk_n but_o the_o jew_n be_v not_o to_o take_v tithe_n of_o stranger_n the_o priest_n be_v not_o to_o receive_v wage_n of_o they_o they_o do_v no_o work_n for_o for_o that_o be_v count_v unreasonable_a among_o man_n to_o ask_v wage_n of_o they_o they_o do_v nothing_o for_o but_o the_o power_n of_o god_n compel_v they_o that_o be_v in_o it_o if_o need_v be_v to_o administer_v carnal_a thing_n to_o those_o that_o sow_v unto_o they_o spiritual_n and_o there_o need_v not_o a_o outward_a law_n to_o compel_v to_o it_o for_o their_o ministry_n take_v effect_n and_o beget_v a_o love_n and_o a_o life_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o their_o hearer_n but_o a_o dead_a ministry_n beget_v neither_o love_n nor_o life_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o people_n and_o so_o such_o minister_n be_v force_v to_o cry_v out_o for_o a_o outward_a law_n to_o compel_v people_n to_o maintain_v they_o in_o pride_n and_o idleness_n and_o welfare_n contrary_a to_o paul_n exhortation_n to_o timothy_n 1_o tim._n 6.7_o 8._o who_o say_v we_o bring_v nothing_o into_o this_o world_n and_o it_o be_v certain_a we_o can_v carry_v nothing_o out_o have_v food_n and_o raiment_n let_v we_o therewith_o be_v content_a but_o these_o be_v not_o so_o content_a but_o have_v great_a revenue_n as_o be_v well_o know_v and_o be_v not_o these_o revenue_n the_o cause_n why_o so_o many_o man_n send_v their_o son_n to_o those_o place_n call_v university_n which_o make_v our_o nation_n swarm_v with_o so_o many_o locust_n that_o destroy_v our_o corn_n and_o will_v devour_v every_o green_a thing_n in_o god_n garden_n and_o preach_v peace_n to_o people_n in_o their_o sin_n while_o they_o put_v

and_o so_o keep_v people_n in_o the_o err_v and_o stray_v from_o the_o way_n of_o god_n like_v lose_v sheep_n this_o be_v one_o cause_o why_o we_o can_v pay_v our_o rent_n to_o vicious_a landlord_n

they_o be_v evil_a example_n themselves_o another_o cause_n why_o we_o can_v pay_v our_o rent_n to_o vicious_a landlord_n or_o papist_n but_o can_v pay_v tithe_n to_o the_o priest_n be_v because_o we_o usual_o come_v into_o covenant_n with_o our_o land-owner_n to_o pay_v they_o rent_n but_o so_o we_o do_v not_o to_o the_o priest_n to_o pay_v they_o tithe_n yea_o and_o we_o can_v pay_v our_o
