B09558 A looking-glass for George Fox the Quaker, and other Quakers; wherein they may see themselves to be right devils. In answer to George Fox his book, called, Something in answer to Lodowick Muggletons book, which he calls The Quakers neck broken. Wherein is set forth the ignorance and blindness of the Quakers doctrine of Christ within them; and that they cannot, nor doth not know the true meaning of the Scriptures, neither have they the gift of interpretation of Scripture. As will appear in those several heads set down in the next page following. / Written by Lodowick Muggleton ... Muggleton, Lodowick, 1609-1698. 1667 (1667) Wing M3046; ESTC R10137 83,636 106

suffer_v in_o the_o flesh_n but_o he_o do_v not_o die_v as_o he_o be_v god_n chap._n xxiv_o answer_n here_o fox_n have_v discover_v his_o allegorical_a cheat_n as_o i_o have_v make_v appear_v before_o for_o say_v he_o in_o the_o fourteen_o particular_a of_o this_o book_n the_o quaker_n own_v the_o son_n of_o god_n who_o be_v crucify_v and_o lay_v in_o the_o grave_n and_z rise_v again_o and_o sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n yet_o fox_n say_v the_o godhead_n life_n do_v not_o die_v here_o fox_n have_v manifest_v his_o great_a ignorance_n of_o life_n that_o die_v also_o he_o have_v cut_v himself_o off_o from_o have_v any_o part_n or_o portion_n in_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n for_o god_n and_o christ_n be_v all_o one_o undividual_a or_o undivided_a essence_n person_n and_o substance_n so_o that_o when_o christ_n die_v god_n die_v and_o when_o christ_n blood_n or_o soul_n be_v pour_v out_o unto_o death_n the_o soul_n of_o god_n be_v pour_v out_o unto_o death_n also_o christ_n be_v god_n and_o man._n for_o no_o man_n can_v true_o say_v christ_n be_v god_n and_o man_n except_o he_o be_v god_n as_o well_o as_o man_n for_o if_o there_o be_v another_o god_n beside_o christ_n or_o above_o christ_n than_o christ_n be_v not_o god_n as_o well_o as_o man_n as_o people_n do_v vain_o imagine_v now_o we_o read_v that_o christ_n pour_v out_o his_o soul_n unto_o death_n and_o will_v any_o dare_v to_o say_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o the_o soul_n of_o god_n it_o be_v high_a blasphemy_n to_o affirm_v the_o contrary_a beside_o it_o cut_v a_o man_n off_o from_o all_o benefit_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n for_o no_o blood_n but_o the_o blood_n of_o a_o god_n can_v speak_v peace_n to_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n therefore_o it_o be_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n speak_v better_a thing_n than_o the_o blood_n of_o abel_n because_o abel_n be_v but_o a_o faithful_a man_n but_o christ_n be_v god_n as_o well_o as_o man_n yet_o this_o godhead_n life_n do_v die_v and_o quicken_v again_o by_o its_o own_o power_n which_o abel_n life_n can_v not_o do_v be_v but_o a_o man_n but_o what_o shall_v i_o talk_v to_o quaker_n of_o these_o thing_n for_o they_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o any_o soul_n die_v no_o not_o their_o own_o they_o all_o slip_n away_o and_o leave_v the_o body_n to_o suffer_v so_o fox_n say_v christ_n suffer_v in_o the_o flesh_n but_o his_o soul_n do_v not_o die_v but_o slip_v out_o of_o his_o body_n for_o he_o do_v not_o own_o that_o christ_n soul_n die_v neither_o as_o he_o be_v god_n nor_o as_o he_o be_v man_n but_o this_o be_v open_v more_o large_a concern_v the_o godhead_n life_n die_v in_o the_o interpretation_n of_o the_o whole_a book_n of_o the_o revelation_n but_o what_o think_v you_o fox_n do_v cain_n kill_v the_o soul_n or_o life_n of_o abel_n or_o no_o or_o do_v he_o only_o drive_v his_o soul_n or_o spirit_n out_o of_o his_o body_n sure_o if_o cain_n have_v not_o kill_v abel_n soul_n his_o blood_n will_v never_o have_v cry_v for_o vengeance_n in_o god_n ear_n and_o in_o his_o own_o conscience_n as_o it_o do_v if_o his_o life_n have_v not_o be_v kill_v what_o do_v you_o think_v fox_n that_o judas_n do_v by_o his_o soul_n when_o he_o hang_v himself_o do_v he_o only_o hang_v the_o body_n that_o his_o soul_n may_v slip_v away_o and_o leave_v his_o body_n to_o suffer_v what_o do_v you_o think_v the_o suffering_n that_o all_o quaker_n of_o late_a and_o other_o have_v undergo_v in_o imprisonment_n and_o banishment_n some_o have_v die_v by_o reason_n of_o those_o suffering_n but_o you_o quaker_n do_v believe_v it_o be_v nothing_o but_o their_o body_n that_o suffer_v their_o soul_n suffer_v nothing_o they_o slip_v out_o of_o their_o body_n and_o go_v some_o where_o you_o know_v not_o where_o so_o your_o persecutor_n do_v you_o no_o great_a hurt_n only_o turn_v your_o soul_n out_o of_o your_o body_n before_o the_o time_n as_o a_o landlord_n do_v a_o bad_a tenant_n turn_v he_o out_o of_o his_o house_n for_o not_o pay_v his_o rent_n he_o never_o kill_v he_o so_o the_o quaker_n soul_n be_v never_o kill_v they_o be_v only_o separate_v from_o the_o body_n so_o that_o there_o be_v no_o great_a harm_n do_v by_o the_o persecutor_n they_o do_v but_o only_o separate_v soul_n and_o body_n one_o from_o the_o other_o they_o do_v not_o kill_v life_n in_o the_o quaker_n for_o life_n can_v die_v the_o body_n indeed_o may_v suffer_v but_o life_n can_v die_v this_o be_v fox_n the_o quaker_n faith_n and_o all_o quaker_n else_o that_o i_o have_v talk_v with_o and_o be_v not_o the_o quaker_n blind_v and_o harden_v they_o will_v be_v ashamed_a to_o own_o such_o a_o principle_n for_o all_o true_a believer_n be_v ashamed_a of_o the_o quaker_n faith_n in_o this_o point_n nay_o man_n that_o be_v mere_a moral_a man_n that_o have_v no_o light_n but_o the_o dictate_v of_o nature_n do_v know_v by_o experience_n that_o the_o spirit_n and_o soul_n of_o man_n do_v die_v for_o nothing_o can_v be_v capable_a of_o pain_n but_o life_n nor_o nothing_o can_v be_v capable_a to_o die_v but_o life_n yet_o these_o blind_a quaker_n can_v believe_v that_o life_n can_v die_v as_o aforesaid_a 19_o page_n 21._o muggleton_n say_v god_n the_o king_n of_o heaven_n be_v not_o in_o this_o world_n at_o all_o fox_n call_v this_o lie_v also_o for_o say_v he_o thou_o do_v confess_v that_o christ_n

word_n of_o john_n and_o say_v christ_n be_v in_o the_o world_n but_o the_o world_n know_v he_o not_o mind_n do_v i_o ever_o deny_v in_o all_o my_o write_n that_o christ_n never_o be_v in_o the_o world_n i_o always_o in_o all_o my_o write_n justify_v more_o than_o any_o man_n live_v that_o christ_n the_o only_a god_n be_v in_o this_o world_n in_o the_o state_n of_o mortality_n which_o the_o apostle_n do_v witness_v unto_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o john_n say_v christ_n be_v in_o the_o world_n but_o the_o world_n know_v he_o not_o which_o do_v imply_v that_o christ_n be_v not_o in_o the_o world_n in_o his_o person_n at_o that_o time_n when_o john_n write_v those_o word_n if_o he_o have_v john_n will_v have_v say_v christ_n be_v now_o in_o the_o world_n but_o the_o world_n know_v he_o not_o so_o that_o it_o be_v clear_a to_o those_o that_o know_v the_o scripture_n that_o christ_n the_o only_a god_n be_v not_o in_o this_o world_n at_o all_o in_o the_o apostle_n time_n he_o be_v in_o the_o world_n before_o he_o suffer_v death_n and_o the_o world_n know_v he_o not_o but_o after_o he_o be_v ascend_v he_o have_v not_o be_v in_o this_o world_n never_o since_o and_o this_o john_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n know_v very_o well_o and_o they_o preach_v this_o christ_n that_o be_v in_o the_o world_n but_o the_o world_n know_v he_o not_o therefore_o they_o persecute_v he_o and_o slay_v he_o and_o will_v slay_v he_o again_o if_o he_o be_v in_o this_o world_n now_o so_o john_n know_v well_o enough_o therefore_o he_o testify_v that_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o world_n in_o his_o own_o person_n but_o the_o wicked_a world_n put_v he_o to_o death_n because_o they_o know_v he_o not_o but_o he_o be_v not_o in_o the_o world_n now_o for_o he_o be_v ascend_v for_o john_n know_v if_o christ_n have_v be_v in_o the_o world_n in_o his_o person_n at_o that_o time_n they_o will_v have_v do_v unto_o he_o as_o they_o do_v before_o and_o because_o christ_n be_v not_o
they_o the_o assurance_n of_o everlasting_a life_n but_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o such_o to_o return_v to_o the_o truth_n again_o and_o this_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o a_o man_n can_v proper_o be_v say_v to_o fall_v away_o but_o when_o man_n and_o woman_n fall_v from_o a_o commission_n for_o we_o see_v many_o people_n fall_v oft_o from_o one_o profession_n of_o religion_n to_o another_o as_o from_o baptist_n to_o quaker_n and_o independent_o to_o baptist_n and_o quaker_n fall_v from_o that_o principle_n to_o other_o and_o some_o to_o atheism_n yet_o this_o be_v not_o proper_o a_o fall_v away_o because_o there_o be_v no_o true_a prophet_n or_o ministry_n among_o they_o all_o not_o in_o the_o whole_a world_n so_o that_o to_o my_o knowledge_n many_o have_v fall_v from_o one_o thing_n to_o another_o and_o at_o last_o have_v come_v to_o be_v save_v by_o this_o commission_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o have_v have_v assurance_n of_o eternal_a life_n in_o themselves_o notwithstanding_o their_o fall_n from_o several_a form_n of_o worship_n but_o who_o ever_o fall_v from_o the_o commission_n of_o god_n there_o can_v be_v no_o return_n again_o neither_o can_v they_o possible_o be_v save_v therefore_o think_v it_o convenient_a to_o let_v you_o know_v what_o will_v be_v the_o effect_n of_o your_o fall_n i_o have_v be_v in_o this_o commission_n these_o sixteen_o year_n and_o i_o never_o know_v but_o four_o person_n that_o do_v fall_v which_o seem_v to_o own_v we_o yourself_o be_v one_o and_o a_o scotch_a woman_n alexander_z hayles_z his_o wife_n she_o fall_v to_o the_o quaker_n as_o soon_o as_o we_o be_v put_v in_o newgate_n for_o indeed_o she_o be_v very_o poor_a and_o we_o be_v in_o prison_n can_v not_o supply_v she_o with_o loaf_n no_o long_o there_o be_v but_o very_o few_o that_o do_v believe_v at_o that_o time_n so_o she_o do_v fall_v to_o the_o quaker_n and_o forsake_v we_o for_o i_o suppose_v the_o quaker_n have_v more_o loaf_n among_o they_o for_o they_o be_v many_o for_o a_o loaf_n of_o bread_n be_v the_o great_a religion_n she_o have_v in_o she_o for_o she_o be_v for_o john_n robins_n his_o people_n so_o long_o as_o he_o can_v maintain_v they_o with_o the_o stock_n he_o get_v from_o they_o but_o when_o that_o be_v spend_v she_o do_v fall_v from_o he_o and_o his_o people_n also_o the_o three_o person_n be_v mistress_n langley_n the_o

in_o it_o this_o mistress_n langley_n do_v fall_v to_o the_o quaker_n as_o you_o have_v do_v but_o a_o woeful_a effect_n do_v follow_v upon_o it_o even_o distractedness_n of_o brain_n a_o waste_n of_o
