Shewing the dark ways and worships of the ministry of Antichrist now in these apostated times, which is perilous, as is foretold of often by the Holy Ghost that spoke through Paul, and now is fulfilled in these latter days, 2 Tim 3. Thus saith the Lord, Arise Sion, and thresh with a sharp threshing instrument, and shine, for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen, and is arising, and Jerusalem shall be a burdensome stone to all nations, now that Christ is unto his people both the light and glory thereof. Wherein something is written in reply to a book that was set forth by the dry and night vines in and about Beverley, who scornfully nicknameth the people of God, in reviling and falsly accusing them, and calleth them Quakers, in and about York-shire.

things and as unknown and yet well known of the Lord and of all those that are the Lords but of our selves we can do nothing It is God that worketh in us both to will and to do of his own good pleasure and is thy eye evil because his is good It is God that doth us justifie and we know that all things work together for good to them that love God to them who are the called according to his purpose Rom. 8.28 29. to the end of the Chapter What would you then have us to continue in sin that grace may abound God forbid for how shall we that are d●ad to sin live any longer therein knowing that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death that like as Christ was raised from the dead by the Glory of the Father even we also shall be raised up to walk in newness of life Rom. 6. Isai 66.12 Truth we own and righteousness we own and all Christian Authority such as is of God we own knowing that the Law is holy 1 Tim. 1.8 9 10. and just and good for the lawless and for the disobedient and that the righteous Magistrate beareth not the Sword in vain neither will he suffer sin to go unpunished Justice such as is pure according to the Command of Jesus Christ that which is for the punishing of evil doers and for the praise of them that do well and all that fear the Lord and make conscience of their ways and doings who hold the mystery of faith in a pure conscience such we do own And think not that we do come to destroy or declare against righteousness but unrighteousness that purity may be set up and righteousness established that deceits and deceivableness and all unrighteousness may be thrown down and Christ the Son of righteousness exalted in the purity of the Gospel this we do own and this we do honour But all deceivers blind guides hirelings Seducers and Antichrists who do not act in righteousness nor abide in the Doctrine of Christ we do disown And all Ranters and Libertines who are without order and spiritual Government who delight in vanities and follow the course and fashions of the world and live in voluptuousness and filthiness of the flesh and those that say and do not and seem to be what they are not speaking fair words and walk contrary in their actions which preach to others liberty and they themselves are the servants of corruption be they what they will be such we disown and utterly do deny and we loath and abhor all manner of evil knowing this That he that doth not righteousness is not of God 1 Iohn 3.10 For God is pure and of purer eyes then to behold iniquity and all Ranters Sects and opin●ons whatsoever we do deny for it is purity that we do honour knowing That he that doth righteousness is of God 1 Iohn 3.7 But such as hold that there is neither God nor Devil good nor evil but what a man doth imag●ne and that good and evil is alike Let me tell them by the Spirit of the living God that they are lyars and guided by a spirit of delusion Now all that love the Lord Jesus Christ have a care and take heed of all such for they are not of Christ but of Antichrist and we do them disown and utterly deny in obedience to the command of the Spirit of truth and according to the Command of our Lord Jesus Christ who saith Have no fellowship with them Ephes 5.11 For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret but all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light for whatsoever doth make manifest is light Ephes 5.12 13. Let all the workers of iniquity know That the unrighteous shall not inherit the Kingdom of God 1 Cor. 6.9 10. Gal. 5.19 20 21. And let them know That the wicked and all that forget God shall be turned into hell Psal 9.17 For the Secrets of the Lord are with them that fear him and the grace of God which bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men teaching us to deny all ungodliness and worldly lusts and to live righteously soberly and godly in this present evil world Tit. 12.11 12. s o God is thereby dishonoured but he is zealous of his honour with a godly jealousie and he will not give it unto graven Images but will judge the Heathen in righteousness and all are Heathen that know not God by his power ruling in them and he will scatter the proud in all their imaginations and therefore be not deceived for God will not be mocked And saith he If I be a Father where is my honour A son honoureth his father in loving him and walking humbly before him and yeilding obedience to him from love received and a servant he serveth his Master and is in obedience to him in all things Therefore his servants ye are to whom ye do obey Rom. 6.16 And he that commits sin is the servant of sin John 8.33 But know you not that the wages of sin is death but the gift of God to them that love him and serve him in holiness and righteousness is Eternal life a Therefore saith he Be ye holy as I am holy for without holiness no man shall see the Lord profess what they will And It is not every one that saith Lord Lord that shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven saith Jesus Christ but he that doth the will of my Father which is in Heaven And saith he Herein is my Father glorified that ye bring forth much fruit But why call ye me Lord and Master saith he and do not the works that I say Therefore every one that doth profess love to God and Christ be what you speak in all things or else profess nothing at all and be not sayers but doers for to say and not to perform is hypocrisie and dissimulation But hypocrites and dissemblers God will judge and pour forth fury upon the head of the wicked Therefore all that do walk in disorder to the Spirit of truth God doth disown and we do disown but those that walk according to the Spirit of truth and bring forth the fruits of the Spirit as love out of a pure heart fervently peace meekness gentleness goodness temperance and patience godliness and brotherly kindness and such as these which are according to the Spirit of truth Gal. 5.22 23 24 25 26. such we do own and wish grace mercy and peace to all that walk according to this rule and to all the Israel of God And I say as the Apostle did who was a true Minister of Jesus Christ and a man of God who was acted and given by the Spirit of the living God and was hated of the world and both by the Jews Pharisees Sadduces Grecians Libertines and all Sects and opinions which were many as there are now and all in confusion and out of the way but truth it is but one which stands out of all sects and opinions and is in that which is but one where purity is out of all apprehensions and comprehensions in the Eternal Divine Being And it is for the truths sake that we are reproached and so we are made willing to submit to the righteousness of the Spirit And as many as walk according to this rule Peace be on them on the Israel of God From henceforth let no man trouble me For I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus Christ And to all that are Brethren Gal. 6.16 17 18. The Grace of our Lord Iesus Christ be with your Spirits Amen This Epistle was written for the Vindication of the Truth By a Friend and Lover of the Truth and a Servant of the Lord Rich.
