A35520	This is an answer to John Wiggans book, spread up and down in Lancashire, Cheshire and Wales, who is a baptist & a monarchy-man wherein may be seen how he exalts himself, against Christ the light, that doth enlighten every man : and also some of his, and his peoples erronious principles, and assertions, which he and his people held in a dispute, with some Quakers ... / from the prisoners at Lancaster, whom he then opposed being then a prisoner, Thomas Curwen, William Houlden, Henery Wood, William VVilson ; also here is an answer to his appendix annexed to the book by Margaret Fell.

as_o be_v without_o god_n in_o the_o world_n and_o stranger_n have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o themselves_o to_o grieve_v and_o vex_v thou_o say_v for_o that_o which_o may_v be_v know_v of_o god_n be_v manifest_a in_o they_o and_o when_o they_o know_v god_n they_o do_v not_o glorify_v he_o as_o god_n but_o become_v vain_a in_o their_o imagination_n and_o change_v the_o truth_n of_o

spirit_n of_o god_n in_o themselves_o as_o well_o as_o in_o other_o and_o whereas_o thou_o say_v joh._n 16._o 7_o 8._o if_o i_o depart_v i_o will_v send_v the_o comforter_n etc._n etc._n thou_o say_v by_o this_o promise_n christ_n make_v be_v to_o send_v the_o holy_a ghost_n after_o his_o departure_n it_o be_v evident_a enough_o that_o this_o scripture_n can_v be_v no_o proof_n of_o thy_o assertion_n to_o wit_n that_o every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n have_v not_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o if_o every_o man_n have_v he_o when_o he_o come_v into_o the_o world_n what_o

christ_n departure_n which_o destroy_v thy_o opinion_n yet_o thou_o grant_v the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v come_v after_o christ_n ascend_v to_o the_o apostle_n and_o to_o reprove_v the_o world_n so_o by_o this_o thou_o have_v overthrow_v thy_o own_o opinion_n and_o assertion_n and_o we_o say_v that_o christ_n do_v enlighten_v every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n and_o be_v a_o saviour_n and_o the_o light_n be_v save_v and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v give_v to_o reprove_v the_o world_n and_o lead_v the_o saint_n and_o it_o be_v prove_v before_o that_o the_o wicked_a resist_v the_o

thou_o deny_v it_o and_o say_v they_o have_v it_o not_o and_o so_o deme_n plain_a scripture_n and_o pervert_v our_o word_n for_o our_o word_n be_v that_o christ_n do_v enlighten_v every_o man_n that_o

all_o truth_n second_o thou_o say_v this_o promise_n be_v make_v particular_o to_o the_o disciple_n of_o christ_n i_o will_v send_v he_o to_o you_o and_o not_o unto_o the_o world_n answ_n why_o do_v thou_o wrong_v the_o scripture_n do_v it_o not_o say_v when_o he_o come_v he_o shall_v reprove_v the_o world_n of_o sin_n righteousness_n and_o judgement_n of_o sin_n because_o they_o believe_v not_o in_o he_o be_v he_o send_v then_o only_o to_o the_o disciple_n and_o not_o to_o the_o world_n read_v john_n 26._o 7_o 8_o 9_o 10._o over_o again_o and_o see_v thy_o own_o ignorance_n and_o darkness_n and_o it_o be_v sufficient_o prove_v that_o the_o wicked_a resist_v the_o holy_a ghost_n before_o christ_n come_v as_o also_o they_o that_o kill_v the_o prophet_n and_o also_o it_o be_v prove_v that_o christ_n do_v send_v the_o comforter_n to_o his_o disciple_n after_o his_o ascension_n which_o spirit_n shall_v reprove_v the_o world_n and_o though_o the_o disciple_n be_v lead_v into_o all_o truth_n by_o the_o spirit_n by_o which_o they_o be_v to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o all_o nation_n that_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n may_v be_v spread_v over_o all_o this_o do_v not_o disprove_v the_o

see_v they_o crucify_v the_o lord_n of_o glory_n the_o son_n of_o god_n afresh_o and_o put_v he_o to_o open_a shame_n and_o now_o priest_n wiggan_n say_v these_o wicked_a man_n have_v not_o the_o

have_v long_o make_v a_o trade_n of_o they_o and_o whereas_o thou_o make_v a_o preamble_n upon_o our_o word_n wherein_o we_o reply_v to_o thy_o assertion_n to_o wit_n that_o no_o wicked_a man_n have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n but_o only_o the_o saint_n and_o thou_o do_v affirm_v that_o balaam_n have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o we_o prove_v that_o balaam_n have_v the_o spirit_n of_o

none_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n but_o believer_n and_o balaam_n prophesy_v of_o great_a thing_n to_o the_o jew_n and_o god_n speak_v to_o he_o and_o we_o know_v there_o be_v a_o difference_n betwixt_o those_o that_o grieve_v the_o spirit_n and_o those_o that_o walk_v in_o it_o and_o before_o thou_o be_v ignorant_a of_o these_o scripture_n as_o balaam_n and_o saul_n have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o now_o thou_o confess_v that_o wicked_a man_n may_v have_v it_o upon_o some_o occasion_n but_o say_v all_o wicked_a man_n have_v it_o not_o read_v over_o again_o joh._n 16._o act_v the_o second_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n shall_v reprove_v the_o world_n and_o god_n will_v pour_v out_o his_o spirit_n upon_o all_o flesh_n which_o before_o thou_o will_v limit_v only_o to_o

not_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o here_o again_o thou_o overthrow_v thy_o assertion_n and_o thou_o say_v it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n that_o must_v convince_v the_o world_n and_o when_o as_o we_o bid_v thou_o who_o look_v upon_o thyself_o to_o be_v a_o minister_n of_o christ_n convince_v we_o of_o any_o evil_n we_o have_v do_v thou_o shuffle_v

of_o jacob_n which_o it_o be_v say_v at_o a_o full_a stop_n by_o balaam_n there_o shall_v come_v a_o star_n out_o of_o jacob_n and_o a_o sceptre_n shall_v rise_v out_o of_o israel_n now_o how_o can_v he_o prophesy_v of_o it_o if_o he_o do_v not_o see_v it_o and_o this_o overthrow_v thou_o and_o thy_o assertion_n who_o never_o see_v so_o far_o as_o balaam_n do_v and_o whereas_o thou_o say_v they_o shall_v see_v he_o when_o every_o eye_n see_v he_o by_o this_o thou_o confound_v thy_o own_o assertion_n for_o none_o can_v see_v god_n or_o christ_n without_o the_o light_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o thou_o confess_v every_o eye_n shall_v see_v he_o and_o we_o may_v help_v thou_o a_o little_a further_o for_o every_o tongue_n shall_v confess_v and_o every_o knee_n shall_v bow_v at_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n if_o thou_o know_v what_o his_o name_n be_v than_o thou_o may_v know_v that_o the_o light_n of_o the_o body_n be_v the_o eye_n which_o see_v god_n and_o whereas_o thou_o bring_v job_n who_o say_v when_o i_o see_v for_o myself_o and_o with_o my_o eye_n and_o this_o thou_o bring_v to_o prove_v that_o israel_n and_o balaam_n shall_v not_o see_v till_o the_o latter_a day_n and_o thou_o may_v read_v job_n and_o confute_v thyself_o job_n 42._o who_o say_v i_o have_v hear_v of_o thou_o by_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o ear_n but_o now_o my_o eye_n see_v thou_o here_o job_n be_v a_o true_a

be_v a_o baptist_n he_o maintain_v thy_o principle_n and_o be_v one_o with_o thou_o and_o why_o do_v thou_o deny_v he_o now_o and_o whereas_o thou_o say_v there_o be_v a_o light_n or_o law_n in_o
