A56430	A collection of the several writings given forth from the Spirit of the Lord through that meek, patient, and suffering servant of God, James Parnel, who, though a young man, bore a faithful testimony for God and dyed a prisoner under the hands of a persecuting generation in Colchester Castle in the year 1656	Parnell, James, 1637?-1656.	1675 (1675)	Wing P528; ESTC R11881	266,794	528

messenger_n of_o the_o most_o high_a and_o wilful_o resist_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n make_v lie_v your_o refuge_n as_o here_o do_v plain_o appear_v for_o upon_o the_o day_n aforesaid_a i_o be_v at_o a_o friend_n house_n in_o great_a coggashall_n where_o several_a friend_n and_o neighbour_n be_v come_v to_o see_v i_o and_o there_o sit_v peaceable_o together_o wait_v upon_o the_o lord_n and_o i_o have_v hear_v of_o a_o public_a meeting_n at_o the_o steeplehouse_n in_o the_o say_a town_n of_o the_o priest_n and_o professor_n of_o these_o time_n as_o it_o be_v open_o publish_v by_o priest_n samme_n and_o the_o priest_n of_o the_o say_a town_n in_o the_o say_a steeplehouse_n upon_o the_o first_o day_n last_o pass_v to_o that_o end_n as_o i_o hear_v and_o since_o do_v understand_v for_o to_o fast_a and_o pray_v against_o and_o lay_v open_a the_o error_n as_o they_o say_v of_o the_o people_n call_v quaker_n for_o the_o return_v of_o they_o who_o own_v they_o and_o the_o establish_n and_o strengthen_v those_o against_o they_o that_o do_v not_o own_v they_o to_o wit_n the_o people_n call_v quaker_n so_o i_o be_v press_v in_o my_o spirit_n for_o to_o go_v among_o they_o in_o the_o behalf_n and_o defence_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n bring_v forth_o in_o these_o people_n who_o the_o world_n scornful_o call_v quaker_n i_o also_o be_v make_v a_o minister_n of_o the_o same_o eternal_a truth_n through_o the_o power_n of_o god_n by_o which_o i_o be_o make_v able_a and_o carry_v on_o to_o declare_v it_o open_o and_o public_o to_o the_o confound_a of_o the_o heathen_a and_o the_o revive_n of_o the_o witness_n for_o god_n in_o the_o conscience_n and_o also_o to_o suffer_v for_o the_o same_o which_o i_o do_v believe_v the_o priest_n do_v much_o blaspheme_n and_o reproach_n strive_v to_o present_v it_o odious_a to_o the_o people_n so_o in_o obedience_n to_o the_o lord_n i_o go_v out_o from_o among_o my_o friend_n not_o tell_v one_o of_o they_o whither_o i_o be_v a_o go_v as_o many_o can_v witness_v and_o one_o friend_n follow_v i_o to_o the_o door_n and_o perceive_v something_o of_o my_o go_v he_o ask_v i_o if_o he_o may_v go_v with_o i_o and_o i_o bid_v he_o use_v his_o freedom_n to_o come_v after_o but_o i_o desire_v to_o go_v alone_o and_o so_o i_o go_v on_o the_o way_n single_a and_o when_o i_o come_v at_o the_o steeplehouse_n door_n which_o you_o persecutor_n call_v a_o church_n &_o also_o account_v yourselves_o another_o church_n and_o thus_o you_o set_v up_o church_n in_o your_o imagination_n yet_o be_v stranger_n to_o the_o true_a church_n which_o be_v no_o persecutor_n but_o when_o i_o come_v there_o there_o be_v several_a boy_n and_o child_n that_o will_v have_v flock_v in_o after_o i_o and_o i_o bid_v they_o go_v in_o before_o i_o rather_o than_o to_o go_v in_o disorderly_a whereby_o to_o occasion_v any_o disturbance_n and_o so_o i_o go_v in_o very_o orderly_o and_o stand_v very_o orderly_o not_o speak_v one_o word_n until_o their_o priest_n have_v do_v and_o be_v come_v out_o of_o his_o seat_n as_o many_o can_v witness_v though_o the_o priest_n have_v be_v open_o revile_v and_o reproach_v the_o people_n of_o god_n in_o particular_a who_o he_o scornful_o call_v quaker_n therefore_o let_v all_o people_n who_o understanding_n be_v enlighten_v judge_v in_o what_o riotous_a manner_n i_o enter_v the_o place_n which_o you_o call_v a_o church_n and_o bear_v witness_n against_o you_o who_o be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o make_v lie_v your_o refuge_n against_o the_o innocent_a and_o also_o what_o be_v the_o weapon_n which_o you_o make_v use_v of_o who_o call_v yourselves_o christian_n but_o make_v lie_v your_o refuge_n and_o cover_v your_o action_n with_o deceit_n but_o be_v this_o the_o practice_n and_o nature_n of_o christ_n for_o a_o christian_n be_v christ-like_a and_o let_v all_o that_o profess_v christ_n walk_v as_o he_o walk_v but_o these_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o your_o public_a humiliation_n who_o go_v about_o to_o mock_v god_n but_o your_o end_n shall_v be_v according_a to_o your_o work_n 2._o accusation_n and_o whereas_o you_o say_v be_v in_o order_n thereunto_o then_o exercise_v in_o the_o divine_a worship_n of_o god_n almighty_n he_o the_o say_v james_n do_v then_o and_o there_o stand_v up_o and_o tell_v the_o minister_n he_o blaspheme_v and_o speak_v false_o and_o use_v many_o other_o reproachful_a word_n against_o the_o say_a minister_n reply_v until_o he_o call_v minister_n have_v do_v the_o divinatlon_n of_o his_o own_o brain_n from_o whence_o you_o derive_v your_o divine_a worship_n and_o be_v come_v out_o of_o his_o seat_n i_o do_v not_o speak_v one_o word_n unto_o he_o as_o hundred_o can_v witness_v and_o the_o first_o word_n that_o i_o speak_v be_v not_o as_o you_o accuse_v i_o but_o this_o i_o say_v this_o be_v the_o order_n of_o the_o true_a church_n that_o all_o may_v speak_v one_o by_o one_o 31._o and_o if_o any_o thing_n be_v reveal_v to_o he_o that_o stand_v by_o let_v the_o first_o hold_v his_o peace_n then_o i_o speak_v on_o in_o the_o behalf_n of_o those_o people_n call_v quaker_n who_o the_o priest_n have_v before_o often_o and_o open_o revile_v but_o so_o soon_o as_o i_o have_v speak_v a_o few_o word_n the_o priest_n and_o several_a other_o disorderly_a run_v into_o many_o word_n &_o so_o interrupt_v i_o in_o speak_v that_o it_o breed_v much_o confusion_n then_o the_o priest_n ask_v i_o what_o i_o will_v object_n against_o he_o i_o tell_v he_o in_o that_o he_o revile_v the_o people_n call_v quaker_n and_o say_v they_o be_v build_v upon_o a_o sandy_a foundation_n and_o so_o call_v they_o shakers_n and_o the_o like_a but_o i_o tell_v he_o i_o will_v prove_v their_o foundation_n not_o to_o be_v sandy_a and_o he_o to_o be_v the_o false_a prophet_n and_o so_o i_o declare_v of_o the_o stone_n cut_v out_o of_o the_o mountain_n without_o hand_n which_o strike_v at_o the_o foot_n of_o the_o image_n who_o head_n be_v gold_n and_o breast_n of_o silver_n and_o thigh_n of_o brass_n and_o leg_n of_o iron_n and_o foot_n part_v iron_n &_o part_n clay_n and_o this_o stone_n be_v become_v a_o great_a mountain_n upon_o which_o the_o church_n be_v build_v as_o a_o city_n set_v on_o a_o hill_n can_v be_v hide_v and_o this_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o the_o people_n that_o be_v call_v quaker_n not_o all_o that_o be_v call_v quaker_n but_o the_o real_a people_n who_o the_o world_n scornful_o call_v quaker_n and_o this_o be_v become_v a_o stumbling-stone_n and_o a_o rock_n of_o offence_n to_o the_o nation_n and_o so_o it_o seem_v it_o be_v unto_o you_o because_o you_o be_v the_o worshipper_n of_o the_o great_a image_n which_o you_o call_v the_o divine_a worship_n of_o your_o god_n but_o god_n almighty_n you_o know_v not_o for_o he_o abhor_v all_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o cain_n and_o his_o generation_n which_o be_v ever_o the_o persecute_v generation_n upon_o which_o must_v come_v all_o the_o righteous_a bloodshed_n from_o righteous_a abel_n until_o now_o therefore_o 33._o woe_n unto_o you_o you_o serpent_n you_o generation_n of_o viper_n how_o can_v you_o escape_v the_o damnation_n of_o hell_n and_o now_o you_o fill_v up_o the_o measure_n of_o your_o father_n wrath._n you_o stiffnecked_n and_o uncircumcised_a in_o heart_n and_o ear_n 51._o you_o do_v always_o resist_v the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o do_v your_o father_n so_o do_v you_o but_o think_v not_o that_o you_o shall_v be_v hear_v for_o your_o much_o babble_v who_o for_o a_o pretence_n make_v long_a prayer_n but_o you_o shall_v receive_v the_o great_a damnation_n and_o the_o lord_n will_v make_v your_o diviner_n mad_a who_o have_v speak_v a_o divination_n from_o their_o own_o brain_n 14._o and_o not_o from_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o cry_v peace_n peace_n where_o there_o be_v no_o peace_n because_o you_o put_v into_o their_o mouth_n and_o so_o heal_v you_o slight_o daub_v you_o up_o with_o untempered_a mortar_n but_o you_o shall_v all_o fall_v among_o they_o that_o fall_v in_o the_o day_n that_o i_o visit_v you_o say_v the_o lord_n you_o murderer_n and_o crucifier_n of_o the_o just._n so_o when_o i_o have_v clear_v the_o foundation_n of_o the_o people_n call_v quaker_n as_o aforesaid_a some_o of_o you_o accuse_v i_o that_o i_o own_v no_o church_n and_o i_o say_v it_o be_v false_a then_o some_o of_o you_o
