god_n that_o give_v forth_o the_o scripture_n and_o it_o be_v not_o latin_a greek_a or_o hebrew_n that_o teach_v to_o understand_v the_o scripture_n but_o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o to_o whosoever_o that_o spirit_n be_v give_v and_o god_n give_v it_o to_o who_o he_o please_v they_o only_o be_v fit_a to_o declare_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n unto_o other_o and_o to_o expound_v scripture_n and_o none_o else_o but_o they_o who_o have_v experience_n of_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o their_o own_o heart_n and_o this_o we_o hold_v and_o believe_v 6._o concerning_o ordinary_a call_v and_o speak_v as_o he_o be_v inspire_v i_o say_v the_o scripture_n nowhere_o speak_v of_o ordinary_a call_n and_o if_o by_o ordinary_a call_v it_o be_v mean_v call_v to_o any_o office_n in_o the_o church_n without_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n i_o say_v there_o be_v no_o such_o call_v for_o the_o ministry_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o apostle_n day_n be_v call_v by_o the_o holy_a spirit_n and_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o true_a church_n be_v make_v ordain_v and_o call_v according_a to_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n holy_a spirit_n which_o he_o give_v and_o as_o every_o one_o say_v peter_n have_v receive_v the_o gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n so_o let_v he_o administer_v the_o same_o one_o to_o another_o so_o that_o it_o be_v manifest_a by_o the_o scripture_n that_o the_o call_v to_o the_o ministry_n in_o the_o apostle_n day_n be_v not_o of_o man_n nor_o by_o man_n say_v paul_n but_o according_a to_o the_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a anoim_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o also_o every_o one_o in_o the_o true_a church_n may_v speak_v as_o it_o be_v reveal_v to_o they_o for_o say_v paul_n if_o any_o thing_n be_v reveal_v to_o another_o that_o stand_v by_o let_v the_o first_o hold_v his_o peace_n for_o you_o may_v all_o speak_v one_o by_o one_o that_o all_o may_v be_v edify_v so_o that_o it_o be_v no_o error_n to_o hold_v that_o every_o one_o in_o the_o true_a

among_o we_o and_o that_o such_o be_v our_o ringleader_n this_o be_v a_o false_a slander_n and_o you_o ought_v to_o put_v the_o accuser_n to_o prove_v it_o it_o be_v your_o duty_n so_o to_o do_v and_o that_o such_o popish_a agent_n be_v name_v and_o where_o they_o be_v and_o i_o challenge_v the_o accuser_n to_o name_v one_o among_o we_o or_o else_o let_v he_o stop_v his_o mouth_n for_o a_o liar_n who_o have_v abuse_v your_o name_n with_o dedicate_a untruth_n to_o you_o for_o your_o approof_n again_o he_o accuse_v we_o for_o say_v the_o spirit_n blow_v where_o it_o list_v and_o he_o say_v we_o judge_v none_o have_v the_o spirit_n but_o ourselves_o answ._n 1._o christ_n himself_o say_v the_o wind_n blow_v where_o it_o list_v and_o so_o be_v every_o one_o that_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o spirit_n and_o we_o do_v judge_n god_n have_v give_v of_o his_o spirit_n to_o many_o that_o be_v yet_o ungodly_a and_o many_o be_v convince_v of_o sin_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o their_o conscience_n that_o be_v wicked_a and_o ungodly_a who_o be_v not_o of_o we_o but_o yet_o we_o say_v as_o the_o saint_n in_o age_n pass_v say_v we_o know_v that_o we_o be_v of_o god_n and_o that_o the_o whole_a world_n lie_v in_o wickedness_n and_o they_o that_o be_v of_o god_n hear_v we_o and_o be_v one_o with_o we_o and_o we_o do_v inform_v all_o people_n to_o the_o measure_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o their_o conscience_n that_o they_o may_v come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o to_o be_v one_o with_o we_o again_o he_o accuse_v we_o to_o be_v act_v by_o the_o same_o delude_a spirit_n as_o john_n of_o leyden_n be_v act_v by_o answ._n 1._o what_o spirit_n john_n of_o leyden_n be_v act_v by_o we_o now_o dispute_v not_o neither_o do_v this_o accuser_n well_o know_v but_o what_o he_o have_v from_o the_o report_n of_o other_o which_o may_v be_v false_a as_o like_o as_o true_a in_o some_o particular_n but_o the_o spirit_n that_o we_o follow_v be_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n by_o which_o we_o be_v act_v in_o the_o way_n of_o truth_n and_o righteousness_n and_o be_v not_o delude_v nor_o follower_n of_o a_o delude_a spirit_n for_o we_o be_v willing_a to_o be_v ●ied_v in_o our_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n according_a to_o the_o scripture_n and_o though_o we_o stand_v accuse_v of_o these_o and_o the_o like_a thing_n yet_o we_o challenge_v he_o to_o prove_v it_o before_o you_o and_o that_o we_o may_v be_v admit_v to_o make_v our_o defeace_n and_o we_o shall_v the_o rather_o easy_o prove_v that_o our_o accuser_n be_v act_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o devil_n who_o be_v a_o accuser_n of_o the_o brethren_n like_o the_o devil_n and_o that_o be_v a_o delude_a spirit_n that_o teach_v man_n to_o backbite_v lie_v and_o slander_n as_o this_o man_n have_v do_v so_o he_o be_v prove_v full_o guilty_a of_o that_o whereof_o he_o have_v accuse_v other_o and_o must_v own_v the_o shame_n and_o condemnation_n to_o himself_o which_o he_o will_v bring_v upon_o other_o again_o the_o accuser_n charge_v we_o that_o we_o will_v neither_o have_v king_n magistrate_n nor_o minister_n but_o of_o ourselves_o etc._n etc._n answ._n 1._o i_o have_v before_o mention_v what_o kind_n of_o ruler_n and_o governor_n we_o will_v have_v even_o such_o as_o be_v just_a man_n and_o man_n of_o truch_n and_o righteousness_n and_o that_o hate_v covetousness_n and_o every_o evil_a way_n and_o such_o be_v of_o we_o even_o such_o we_o will_v have_v to_o reign_v as_o be_v approve_v of_o god_n who_o will_v be_v a_o praise_n to_o they_o that_o do_v well_o and_o a_o

bless_v in_o their_o authority_n 2._o and_o till_o such_o only_a rule_n and_o bear_v the_o sword_n of_o justice_n in_o the_o earth_n we_o do_v know_v peace_n and_o happiness_n can_v never_o be_v in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n but_o division_n and_o confusion_n will_v arise_v and_o be_v bring_v forth_o for_o it_o be_v the_o only_a blessedness_n of_o a_o government_n in_o any_o nation_n when_o the_o authority_n itself_o be_v just_a and_o according_a to_o god_n and_o when_o such_o as_o bear_v the_o execution_n thereof_o be_v just_a king_n righteous_a magistrate_n and_o minister_n of_o justice_n that_o will_v judge_v for_o god_n and_o not_o for_o man_n and_o we_o seek_v not_o the_o place_n of_o government_n in_o this_o world_n nor_o do_v we_o intrude_v ourselves_o into_o such_o place_n though_o this_o we_o say_v while_o that_o spirit_n reign_v and_o rule_n in_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o earth_n which_o be_v not_o of_o god_n but_o contrary_a to_o we_o peace_n and_o happiness_n in_o good_a government_n among_o man_n through_o the_o world_n can_v never_o be_v though_o we_o be_v true_o subject_a to_o whatsoever_o authority_n be_v set_v over_o we_o by_o do_v or_o suffer_v then_o the_o accuser_n speak_v of_o teach_v the_o way_n of_o righteousness_n and_o say_v according_a to_o this_o the_o quaker_n have_v go_v through_o ireland_n and_o he_o speak_v of_o god_n wrath_n follow_v for_o hardness_n of_o heart_n and_o this_o say_v he_o be_v just_a like_o the_o quaker_n doctrine_n now_o answ._n that_o the_o quaker_n scornful_o so_o call_v have_v go_v through_o ireland_n and_o through_o many_o other_o nation_n of_o the_o world_n to_o teach_v and_o preach_v truth_n and_o righteousness_n this_o be_v true_a and_o without_o occasion_n of_o a_o evil_a charge_n against_o they_o for_o so_o do_v and_o the_o lord_n have_v prosper_v we_o and_o be_v with_o we_o to_o the_o turn_n of_o many_o from_o darkness_n to_o light_n and_o from_o the_o power_n of_o satan_n unto_o god_n and_o we_o have_v testimony_n in_o the_o conscience_n of_o many_o for_o the_o truth_n of_o our_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n and_o this_o be_v not_o error_n nor_o heresy_n to_o proclaim_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n because_o of_o the_o hardness_n of_o people_n heart_n for_o that_o be_v the_o portion_n of_o all_o hard-hearted_a man_n and_o we_o be_v not_o ashamed_a of_o this_o doctrine_n for_o it_o be_v according_a to_o the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n and_o but_o that_o this_o accuser_n be_v give_v up_o to_o blindness_n of_o mind_n he_o will_v never_o have_v mention_v these_o thing_n
