all Arm-Holes The Lord is against you and he will break down your Wall and rent your Pillows from you as in dayes past Ezek. 13. who have turned away your Ears from the Truth Christ Jesus the true Light which lighteth every Man that cometh into the VVorld and cause the People to Err by your Lyes and by your Lightness like your Brethren the False Prophets of old Was there ever such a Doctrine preached by any of the Holy Men of God as this since the beginning of the World Search the Scriptures and see which you call your Rule where ever they preached That the Faith that justified them and their Salvation was wrought out by a Righteousness or Person wholy without them as you do Did they not say Their Faith workt by Love and purified their Hearts Acts 15. 9. And that the Righteousness of the Law was fulfilled In them who walkt not after the Flesh but after the Spirit Rom. 8. 4. And that the Anointing was In them and was their Teacher and that it was Truth and no Lye And is not Christ the Truth who lighteth every Man And was not he their Righteousness Sanctification and Redemption And much more might be declared of their Testimony how their Salvation was wrought out with Fear and Trembling and that it was God that workt in them to Will and to Do of his own Good Pleasure And yet again thou W. H. saith in thy foresaid Epistle viz. Jesus Christ is amongst us we eat his Flesh and drink his Blood he dwelleth in us and we in him we have both Christ Within and Without we have both Word and Spirit and so we have the better of them that divide these Now if Jesus Christ dwelleth IN you as you say doth not the Saviour dwell in you And if you eat and drink his Flesh and Blood is it not then IN you O William Haworth Dost thou not yet see thy Darkness thy Confusion Contradictions and False Doctrine Hath thy Envy so far blinded thee to cry one while wholely without you and then again he dwelleth in you How will this hold together in the Day of thy Account which hastens And then thou sayest in thy Epistle pag. 9. viz. Our own Righteousness is within us inhering in our Souls it confists in those Vertues and Gifts that the Spirit of God works in our Minds And pag. 10. calls it The Righteousness of meer Man So then the Gifts and Vertues the Spirit of God works in our Minds is but of meer Man by thy Account and as Filthy Rags for so said the Prophet concerning their own Righteousness Isa 64. 6. Would not this be Blasphemy to call the Gifts and Vertues that the Spirit of God works in our Minds Filthy Rags Consider it And would not this be Madness and Folly for Paul to say I count all Loss and Dung that I may win Christ and that I may be found in him not having those Gifts and Vertues which the Spirit of God's work in my Mind Oh Heap of Confusion how hath thy Envy and Pride blinded and befooled thee And then in page 11. thou sayst viz. The Quaker goes about to make his own Righteousness to stand Yes and blame him not if it consists in those Gifts and Vertues that the Spirit of God works in his Mind as thou sayst it doth how is any one a true Christian without these O Will. Haworth How is the wise foolish man taken in his own Envy and Craftiness against the poor honest Quaker The Lord hath found thee out and rebuked thy Madness thou back-sliding treacherous Man And thou art even proclaiming thy Folly like Jannes and Jambres who withstood Moses which is now made manifest And be it known to thee and all the World that the Quaker owns no other Righteousness to be justified by but the Righteousness of Jesus Christ the Righteousness which is of God by Faith in him according to the Scriptures of Truth nor no other Name under Heaven by which Men can be saved whatever any of you dream of them and yet they desire those Gifts and Vertues the Spirit of God works in their Minds may stand and be increased according to that good Exhortation 2 Pet. 1. 5. Add to your Faith Vertue and to Vertue Knowledge and to Knowledge Temperance c. for he that lacketh these things is blind c. Had not Gamaliel more Wisdom Patience and Understanding then thee and thy Companion in this Work who said If the Work were of God it would stand and they could not overthrow it And you call the Work of God the Righteousness of meer Man and say its rotten and must fall as in the last page of your Book Who is Anti-christ now W. H. the Quaker or thee Read 1 Joh. 4. 2 3 4. and consider your Babel where God is confounding your Language and the Language of all the Earth whole Weapons shall not prosper against his Truth and People but he will condemn every Tongue that rises up against them as he hath thine And why dost thou call the Quakers Spirit a Spirit of Delusion and say their Doctrine is Anti-christian in diametrical Opposition to the Doctrine delivered by the Apostles of Jesus Christ which Way wilt thou go about to prove this false envious Charge against us thou canst never prove it while thou livest but it shall turn upon thy own slandering Head for we can prove our Doctrine to be parrellel with the Doctrine of the Apostles and of Christ himself by the Scriptures of Truth and we are made manifest in mens Consciences as the true Ministers of the Gospel were and we witness that in Truth which thou hast stole the Words of for we do eat the Flesh of the Son of Man and drink his Blood c. which didst thou really witness thou wouâ—dst have Fellowship with us and not revile and belie us as thou dost But whose Doctrine is yours like think you who cry wholy without and the Devil had Cards to pâ—ay against Satisfaction from wholy without for all your Sins past present and to come and that the Father hath poured forth all his Wrath upon his Son Jesus Christ Oh ye Blasphemers who blaspheme God and his Tabernacle and them that dwell in Heaven for I testifie for God ye call his true and faithful Witness in you the Devil and the Hour is coming in which you shall feel his heavy Stroaks for these things and he will play you such Cards as you call them as all your Skill Wit and Strength will not be able to prevail against and then your false Hope Joy and Peace will perish It s the Word of the Lord God unto you all who deny his pure Light wherewith he hath lighted you and call his Gifts and Vertues but of meer Man And then you shall know there is Wrath left enough to punish the Hypocrite Lyar and Slanderer and that God is angry with the wicked every Day Psal 7. And thou W. H. â—ayst

and confident as if he needed nothing for all true Sense flows from the Spirit and all it works in us is but our own Righteousness sayst thou and to be all Glorious within as is spoken of the King's Daughter Psalm 45. 13 is to abound in our own Righteousness according to thy Interpretation And 2 Pet. 1. 5 8. speaking of the Vertue of Christ saith He that lacketh these things is blind and contrariwise it maketh them in whom these Vertues abound that they are neither barren nor unfruitful in the Knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ Wâ—at is this less then the calling Christ Belzebub And what follows but that he has a Devil viz. And we express these outwardly in the Observation of the Moral Law in our walking amongst men So the worse people are and the looser they walk the greater Right they have unto the Righteousness of Christ and in a better Condition to receive it then those that from the Sense of the Evil of Sin turn from it because say'st thou this is properly our own Righteousness which consists in those Gifts and Vertues that the Spirit of God works in our Minds c. Is not this Rantism in the highest Degree And for the Moral Law Christ is so far from repealing of it that in Mat. 5. he binds it closer and faster to his Disciples For of old it was said Thou shalt not commit Adultery but by him Thou shalt not Lust c. And of old Thou shalt not Kill but by him Thou shalt not Hate c. But remarkable is Mat. 7. 13 14 15. where he commands doing as we would be done by and calls it the Straight Gate fore-seeing that False Prophets would preach another Broader Way and Wider Gate therefore the next words say Beware of False Prophets c. And at present thou art one of them O that thy Eyes were open to see it Thy Reasons are as Ridiculous as thy positions one is because it is called your Faith and our Righteousness and your Love c. Answ By the same Reason Christ himself must be our own Righteousness for he shall be call'd The Lord our Righteousness Jer. 23. 6. And their Righteousness is of me saith the Lord Isa 54. 17. And 1 Cor. 1. 2. Christ our Lord c. And the Scripture saith He that dwells in Love dwells in God and this Love is shed abroad in the Hearts of the Righteous do they therefore dwell in their own Righteousness Oh thick Darkness Another Reason thou givest is because our Souls are the Subjects of this Righteousness 't is really in our Minds therefore ours Answ What wouldst thou have to be the Subjects of true Righteousness Is it not our Souls that are saved Do not they and we by them reap the Benefit of Salvation And is not that the Subject of Righteousness which is saved by it And by the same Reason the Grace of God must be our own Righteousness because our Souls are saved by it and the Subjects of it It is said God loves Truth in the Inward Parts and that he will write his Law in our Hearts thou sayest All that is in our Inward Parts is our own Righteousness though wrought by the Spirit of God which is said to lead into all Truth Therefore by thy Conclusion God saves us by our own Righteousness But the Ground of thy dislike of the Gifts and Vertues that the Spirit of God works in our Minds which thou callest our own Righteousness is because it is really in our Minds therefore ours What! a Christian and an Enemy to Reallity What! a Spiritual-Man and an Opposer of those Gifts and Vertues the Spirit of God works in our Minds calling them our own Righteousness What! must the Poor in Spirit the Meek the Mourner the Hungerer and Thirster the Merciful the Pure in Heart the Peace-maker c. deny their Blessedness which they must do if these be their own Righteousness according as thou affirmest they are viz. Those Gifts and Vertues that the Spirit of God works in their Minds What! must they turn from Reallity and lay hold of Imagination from real Enjoyments and Possessions to conceived or imagined Apprehensions Who ever besides Hypocrites were Enemies to Reallity VVho ever besides the Vitious Debauched Proud and Letter-learned Pharisees withstood and opposed the real Gifts and real Vertues that the Spirit of God really works in our Minds This is a Doctrine so contrary to the very Tenure and Scope of Scripture that it may well be called A New-invented Fable which all sober People must needs abhor the very Thoughts of It is very strange that ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰ Reality of a thing should make it nothing worth for our own Righteousness is said to be as Filthy Rags And thou sayest Because the Gifts and Vertues of the Spirit of God are Really in our Minds therefore our own Righteousness The sum of the Matter seems to be this That our Heads and not our Hearts our Bodies and not our Souls our own Conceivings and not Reallity our Imaginations without and not the Gifts and Vertues of the Spirit within our Minds are the Subjects of true Righteousness according to thy Account Another Reason thou givest to prove the Gifts and Vertues afore-mentioned to be our own Righteousness because we put forth the Actions wherein this Righteousness consisteth both internal and external is it not we that believe and we that repent and that we are said to pray Answ By this Argument its best neither to believe nor repent nor pray because these are but our own Righteousness and the more we do them the heavier are we loaden with the Filthy Rags of our own Righteousness These things manifest thy Estrangedness to the VVork of Regeneration and Helpings of the Spirit of God A Heavy Charge upon all the Prophets and Apostles of Christ who were obedient to these inward Gifts Vertues and Motions of God's Holy Spirit For by thy Account they did but obey their own Righteousness in what they did they knew and understood that their Hearts was but as the Pen of a ready Writer as David speaks And must there be nothing written spoken or acted because the Spirit makes use of Men and Women to do these things but if they do it it must be charged upon them as their own Righteousness doth the yielding of the Members of our Bodies Instruments to the Holy Spirit of God to act by according to the Exhortation therefore make all its Performance in us our own Righteousness while the Scripture saith 'T is not I that Live c. but Christ Lives in me Neither is it we that speak as we are kept truly Silent out of all our own Thoughts but the Holy Ghost in us Mark 13. 11. Thou say'st Our Righteousness is but the Righteousness of meer Mâ—n c. and yet before saith It consists in the Gifts and Vertues the Spirit of God works in our Minds See thy Confusion from thy own words Thou say'st One
