A62893	The Muggletonians principles prevailing being an answer in full to a scandalous and malicious pamphlet, intituled A true representation of the absurd and mischevious principles of the sect called Muggletonians : herein the aforesaid principles are vindicated, and proved to be infallibly true : and the author of that libel, his scandalous title and subject proved as false to truth, as light is to darkness, and that he knows no more what the true God is, nor what the right devil is, nor any true principle or foundation of faith, for all his great learning he so much bosts of, then those Jews that put the Lord of life to death, for learned and taught reason is but natural, and so falls short of the glory of God, as will appear in the following discourse / by T.T.

3.12_o to_o clear_v this_o further_a do_v not_o the_o apostle_n john_n say_v that_o cain_n be_v from_o that_o serpent-angel_n which_o he_o call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o wicked_a one_o now_o dare_v

worth_a the_o mind_v here_o that_o joseph_n can_v not_o be_v the_o natural_a son_n of_o both_o those_o man_n for_o observe_v in_o the_o genealogy_n of_o our_o saviour_n matthew_n make_v mathan_n to_o

here_o be_v a_o different_a race_n for_o jacob_n the_o natural_a father_n of_o joseph_n he_o proceed_v from_o solomon_n but_o hely_n spring_v from_o nathan_n and_o be_v joseph_n father_n by_o law_n
