A39305 A further discovery of that spirit of contention & division which hath appeared of late in George Keith, &c. being a reply to two late printed pieces of his, the one entituled A loving epistle, &c. the other, A seasonable information, &c. : wherein his cavils are answered, his falshood is laid open, and the guilt and blame of the breach and separation in America, and the reproach he hath brought upon truth and Friends by his late printed books, are fixed faster on him / written by way of epistle ... by Thomas Ellwood.

call_v quaker_n do_v separate_a from_o other_o profession_n not_o only_o because_o of_o the_o error_n in_o
doctrine_n which_o they_o charge_v they_o with_o but_o also_o because_o those_o profession_n in_o general_a be_v depart_v from_o the_o power_n and_o life_n of_o godliness_n and_o withstand_v and_o deny_v the_o inward_a appearance_n of_o christ_n in_o his_o people_n and_o second_o as_o far_o as_o they_o do_v separate_v on_o the_o account_n of_o doctrine_n it_o be_v because_o they_o find_v those_o doctrine_n even_o as_o those_o profession_n themselves_o have_v state_v they_o to_o be_v not_o according_a but_o contrary_a to_o what_o be_v upon_o record_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n he_o

and_o excuse_v they_o etc._n etc._n and_o that_o shall_v satisfy_v we_o in_o this_o point_n but_o have_v not_o t._n l._n and_o friend_n often_o if_o not_o as_o often_o tell_v he_o that_o he_o have_v not_o prove_v they_o guilty_a of_o those_o gross_a and_o vile_a eerror_n he_o talk_v of_o nor_o other_o of_o cloak_v and_o excuse_v they_o and_o yet_o he_o will_v not_o be_v satisfy_v of_o which_o more_o in_o his_o next_o perversion_n he_o say_v many_o hold_n to_o my_o certain_a knowledge_n that_o the_o resurrection_n be_v the_o new_a birth_n and_o nothing_o else_o other_o say_v immediate_o after_o death_n we_o get_v the_o resurrection_n full_o if_o by_o many_o that_o hold_v thus_o he_o mean_v many_o of_o the_o people_n call_v quaker_n i_o neither_o own_v nor_o know_v any_o that_o hold_v such_o doctrine_n so_o also_o his_o other_o say_n viz._n this_o gross_a and_o vile_a error_n that_o christ_n be_v not_o to_o come_v without_o we_o in_o his_o glorify_a body_n to_o judge_v all_o

that_o too_o probable_o they_o have_v drink_v it_o in_o from_o some_o unsound_a expression_n in_o some_o of_o the_o print_a book_n too_o general_o own_v by_o they_o discover_v in_o he_o a_o unsound_a
