A86646	Quaking principles dashed in pieces by the standing and unshaken truth. Being an examination of the tenents held forth by certain northern people, viz. 1. Slighting of the written word. 2. A speaking to that within man. 3. Denying the use of reason in the matters of God. 4. A denying of the ascension and being of the body of Christ. 5. A denying of all the ordinances of Christ. 6. A denying honour to men. 7. Affording absolute perfection at one instant. / By Henoch Howet.	Howet, Enoch.	1655 (1655)	Wing H3152; Thomason E821_2; ESTC R207358	15,546	20

our_o comfort_n or_o hope_n shall_v be_v take_v from_o we_o for_o comfort_v and_o hope_v they_o be_v in_o two_o respect_n first_o what_o cause_n of_o comfort_n be_v there_o when_o all_o our_o

for_o nothing_o but_o what_o god_n have_v in_o scripture_n promise_v this_o make_v we_o come_v bold_o to_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n dan._n 6._o i_o daniel_n understand_v by_o book_n etc._n etc._n

that_o be_v a_o speak_n to_o a_o thing_n within_o thou_o i_o will_v fain_o know_v what_o can_v be_v mean_v by_o the_o thing_n within_o man_n for_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o man_n to_o be_v speak_v to_o but_o man_n if_o it_o be_v light_v it_o have_v enlighten_v man_n and_o then_o man_n be_v to_o be_v account_v and_o speak_v to_o as_o enlighten_v so_o than_o they_o can_v speak_v to_o his_o light_n as_o distinct_a but_o to_o man_n enlighten_v for_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n always_o speak_v to_o man_n it_o be_v true_a satan_n that_o have_v send_v forth_o his_o angel_n transform_v himself_o into_o angel_n of_o light_n to_o publish_v his_o delusion_n and_o deceit_n may_v and_o it_o be_v likely_a have_v therewithal_o send_v forth_o a_o spirit_n in_o man_n to_o persuade_v the_o receive_n that_o his_o dark_a and_o delusive_a light_n and_o hereupon_o the_o angel_n of_o satan_n without_o may_v speak_v to_o the_o spirit_n of_o satan_n within_o under_o the_o notion_n of_o light_n but_o unless_o they_o speak_v unto_o satan_n or_o some_o of_o his_o legion_n in_o man_n i_o know_v not_o how_o they_o can_v speak_v unto_o any_o light_n in_o man_n distinct_a from_o he_o it_o may_v be_v his_o language_n but_o it_o be_v none_o of_o god_n for_o it_o be_v no_o form_n of_o sound_a word_n which_o we_o be_v command_v to_o hold_v fast_o 2_o tim._n 1.13_o and_o now_o i_o come_v to_o the_o three_o of_o their_o mistake_n that_o be_v the_o deny_v the_o use_n of_o reason_n or_o consideration_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o god_n call_v it_o serpentine_a and_o many_o other_o term_n of_o contempt_n and_o upon_o this_o ground_n they_o will_v not_o do_v as_o the_o apostle_n of_o christ_n and_o christ_n himself_o who_o do_v dispute_v or_o reason_n with_o the_o gainsayers_a of_o the_o

it_o but_o because_o of_o the_o strength_n of_o demonstration_n that_o be_v in_o it_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n make_v use_v of_o reason_n or_o wisdom_n and_o tongue_n in_o man_n and_o all_o the_o

give_v to_o the_o saint_n so_o that_o you_o see_v how_o far_o different_a these_o man_n be_v from_o the_o word_n and_o practice_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o ministry_n as_o for_o reason_n carnal_o imply_v we_o justify_v it_o not_o which_o have_v this_o character_n it_o be_v pity_v itself_o and_o therein_o satan_n be_v conversant_a for_o when_o peter_n say_v to_o christ_n master_n pity_v thyself_o none_o of_o these_o thing_n shall_v befall_v thou_o etc._n etc._n for_o this_o reason_n where_o it_o rule_v will_v not_o let_v any_o follow_v god_n or_o christ_n further_a than_o they_o can_v carry_v their_o own_o thing_n viz._n their_o own_o honour_n pleasure_n ease_n worldly_a belove_n that_o their_o worldly_a lust_n may_v have_v life_n and_o delight_n and_o so_o throw_v by_o the_o
