that they were greatly mistaken for Christ did not come according to the Flesh out of the North of England but out of the Town of Bethlehem Micah 5.2 But thou Bethlehem ephratah though thou be little amongst the thousands of Judah yet out of THEE shall HE come forth unto me that is to be Ruler in Israel whose goings forth have been from of old from everlasting And to this Testimony of the Prophet St. Matthew the Evangelist agrees Matth. 2.6 so that they mist in their Calculation take them in the best sense and therefore not led by an infallible Spirit that is infallibly certain for the Town of Bethlehem is not in the North of England And they say that this STAR this BRANCH this Son of Righteousness which gives Light to all the Regions round about came out of that barren and desolate place which is reckoned the least of the Nations i. e. the North of England Well but to confirm that they meant G. Fox Hear G. F. himself in his Book News out of the North Written FROM THE MOVTH OF THE LORD from ONE i. e. G. F. whose Name is not known in the World risen out of the NORTH which was prophesied of and NOW is fulfilled * G. F 's News out of the North c. See Title-page printed 1655. c. I say they believing this no marvel they were so deceived to write as they did And likewise others of their Preachers gave him such Divine Attributes as belong only to Christ And so did he give himself viz. THE SON OF GOD † Man of Sin p. 3. and said He had power to BIND and to LOOSE * Spirit of the Hat p. 27. c. As Dear George Fox who art the Father of many Nations whose Life hath reached through us thy Children even to the Isles afar off to the begetting many again to a lively hope for which Generations to come shall call thee Blessed whose Being and Habitation is in the power of the Highest in which thou rulest and governs in Righteousness and thy Kingdom is established in Peace and the increase thereof is without end c. And all this Blasphemy justified by William Penn Judas and the Jews * Which Book was put forth by their chief Leaders and is particularly owned by G. W. in his Apostate Incendiary p. 24. so that 't is plain he owned and justify'd as well as W. P. these blasphemous passages See also his Book Serious Search p. 58 59. touching S. Eccles Blasphemy c. c. p. 44 45 46 47. So that the Coherence of their Writings consider'd 't is very probable they do account that G. Fox was that Star that Branch that Sun of Righteousness which gives Light to all the Regions round about even to the Isles afar off yea and as justifiable too as to say that his G. Fox's Kingdom is established in Peace and that of the increase thereof there is no end for this I prove to be a Title and an Attribute due only to Christ who is GOD over all blessed for evermore and that from Luke 1.32 33. He shall be great and shall be called the Son of the Highest And the LORD GOD shall give unto HIM the Throne of his Father David And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever and ever and of his Kingdom there shall be no end c. Again to put it yet more out of doubt if more can be I will prove by the Prophet Isaiah's words and now I hope they will come into force at least with G. W. if not with his Brethren since he hath whether at unawares I cannot tell confessed that the Holy Scriptures are given by Divine Inspiration that to say G. Fox's Kingdom is establisht in Peace and that the increase thereof is without end is both Idolatrous and Blasphemous forasmuch as those Titles and Divine Attributes are due only to Christ See Isa 9.6 7. For unto us a Child is born unto us a Son is given and the government shall be upon his shoulders and his name shall be called Wonderful Counsellor The mighty GOD The everlasting Father The prince of peace Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end upon the throne of David and upon his kingdom to order it and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever the zeal of the Lord of HOSTS will perform this Now G. W. with what Face couldst thou appear in Print in the Name of the Quakers who robs Christ of his HONOVR and blasphemes HIS Holy Name and not first condemn these abominable and odious Tenents and downright Blasphemies Oh! Blush and be ashamed and humble your selves and publickly condemn these and the like Errors and pernicious Principles and then let a Confession of Faith be signed by as many as condemn your Errors and then many will be glad of such a happy Reformation which that it may come to pass in the sight of the Nation is my hearty Prayer to GOD. Again THIS IS ONLY TO GO AMONGST FRIENDS P. 13. Come away my beloved Ones drink abundantly and be refreshed and praise his Name for ever eternally I am shed and spilt among you Never so as now never to be separated out of the eternal Oneness sound forth HIS praise declare HIS word Let it go forth as Thunder let the Heathen bow let the Princes of this world fall O! Beloved Ones who are the Children of my eternal FATHER who have eaten at HIS Table and drunk of the new Wine of the Kingdom of GOD who are nourished and dandled upon the lap of everlasting love who suck at the breasts of everlasting consolation P. 14. Your beauty is comely I am ravished I am filled I am filled with love to you all I am sick of love Your beauty hath ravished my heart come sit down my dear Lambs together in the Fold where no Wolf can come and let us rejoice together and sound forth HIS praise who hath washed us and cleansed us and covered us and made us worthy to enter into the Fold the Bride-chamber to eat with HIM of the bread of Life for ever at the eternal Table of life The Bridegroom is come Friends of HIM I know you rejoyce greatly because of his voice And now ny dearly beloved Ones follow HIM for evermore in the eternal light and life where we were bred brought forth * Viz. In the North of England 'T is well this high Applause of the Quakers was to go only amongst themselves surely never higher Applause was given to any Mortals than they give to one another accounting all besides themselves ignorant of GOD HEATHENS the WORLD c. and nourished and are unknown to all the world but me you know And I know you in One who is the condemnation of the world and in HIM I meet you and leave you in HIS Arms. I lie down with you in the bosom of eternal Love Life Peace
