A65609	Quakery slain irrecoverably by the principal Quakers themselves, with a spiritual sword of their own forgery, whose names are here under-written their spreading spiritual murder cries up to heaven for justice, which appears clearly in this treatise ... / written in love as a fore-warning, given to all tender-hearted seeking, unsetled Christians, by Christopher Wade.

deceitful Tutor hath given you the slip again and hath enforced your own tongues to betray you again and to publish your own perpetual shame for by that your saying you do acknowledge in full effect with James Parnel your brother quaker aforesaid That your own confessing and forsaking your sins if you did so are and can be no other but your own meritorious works or fruits meriting and deserving mercy for you said That by their confessing and forsaking their sin they found mercy And thus you again tender up the aforenamed ten principal quakers to be dissembling equivocating hypocrits by your affirming as being ing quakers That salvation cannot be merited by works but the devil leaves you not here neither but by that your affirmation he hath enforced you quakers most shamefully to pervert that inspired holy Scripture Prov. 28.13 for you over-stare Solomon's ground first laid for that his affirmation he first teaching men how to honour God in a right manner saying Honour the Lord thy God with thy substance and with the first fruits of thine encrease Prov. 3.9 hereby letting us know That God is not honoured except a man do first perform his Gospel-duties by God at that time established by mens obediently offering up to him typical sacrifices and oblations out of mens substance and first fruits of their encrease then typifying Christ to be sacrificed and his blood to be shed And it appears that if men then did not at first not only confess but also forsake their supreme sin against the Gospel of Grace and then obediently offer up to God in the very manner by him prescribed sacrifices oblations and offerings then typifying Christ to be offered up to God his Father and to be sacrificed for mens sins that that man neglecting that Gospel-duty was to be cut off from amongst his people according to Lev. 17.8 9. and they were also to bear their iniquity still Lev. 7.18 whatsoever their confessing and forsaking their other legal sins were And thus is proved that you quakers by your refusing the Gospel-imputation of the vertues of Christ lifted up and sacrificed without you for your sins as those typical sacrifices and Moses typically lifting up the brazen Serpent in the wilderness were all performed without men for mens healing And by your wilful persisting in the supreme Gospel-sin aforesaid you quakers confiding in your own meritorious confessing and forsaking your sin if in truth you do so as in truth you do not yet even by that performance you have cut your selves off from amongst God's people and whatsoeuer you fantastically fancy to the contrary you do bear your iniquities still even in your own self-Christed condition and by Scripture all legal exhortations in Scripture are to be subjected under the aforesaid supreme Gospel-sence for without mens confiding in the Gospel-Faith in Christ's blood shed all the quakers-Christs and all the quakers or any other man's Reformation is in Gods sight no other but noysome deformation for God himself inspiredly tells us plainly That without shedding of blood is no remission Heb. 9.22 you quakers And you quakers say That your man Christ in you is spiritual and a Spirit cannot die nor have his blood shed as when our Saviour's person was spirituallized in by and at his Resurrection it was impossible for him to die or have his blood to be shed again see Rom. 6.9 the vertues of which his blood shed you having desperately refused for your justification you having made it appear That your supposed Man Christ in you cannot possibly have his blood shed in you for your sins acted by you both before and more presumptiously now in your self Christed-quakery so that you have neither the vertues of Christ's real bloodshed without you nor within you to appear for your justification and therefore you cannot possibly confide in the vertues of any blood shed And thus you have again firmly staked down your luciferian Christs to be justified only by your own Popish works in your own confessing your legal sins and your supposed meritorious forsaking them and thereby you have rendred up again the forenamed ten quakers to be dissembling equivocating hypocrites for behold you quakers if you have but one corner of a seeing eye left you to look out of your selves by what God inspiredly saith in his Scriptures which you frequently acknowledge are true see I say how highly God doth by them advance Christ's death and bloodshed and doth totally exclude works whether wrought by men or by any spirit in men whatsoever for mens justification in Rom. 3.24 25. Or secondly for the forgiveness of mens sins Ephes 1.7 Or thirdly for the doctrinal foundation of mens faith see Ephes 2.8 Or fourthly for mens reconciliation to God see Rom. 5.10 Col. 1.19 Or fifthly for mens Redemption see Ephes 1.7 1 Pet. 1.13 Or sixthy for the onely way for mens encouragement to enter by Faith even into the holy place before God Heb. 10.19 All which places and very many more such are fastned to mens faith in Christ's death and blood shed without men and they are all confirmed by that grand Scripture-principle That without shedding of blood is no remission Heb. 9.22 and works are totally excluded Blood is blood you quakers and works are works but they are not Christ's is blood And yet you high-flown quaking Christs are so stifned in impudency that you are not ashamed to establish your Christed indignity by popish meritorious works and yet desperately to face it out and in full effect calling the living God of heaven and earth to testifie for you that you mean no such matter But know you quakers That though it is written Work out your own salvation Phil. 2.12 yet the Apostle in the very next Chapter sheweth how they should work that out he telling them that they were to work or strive for the Faith of the Gospel Phil. 1.27 through Faith in Christ's blood Rom. 3.25 but not of works Ephes 2.8 And beloved the quakers choice principle being That every believer is justified by Christ alone without Imputation There is in this also included That as Christ himself hath authority to execute judgement because he is the Son of man John 5.27 and so hath power to forgive sins on earth Matth. 9.6 that so every quaker Christ man or woman must upon necessity conclude that they have authority to judge and justifie their own particular persons to be as free from all sin in them as Christ himself is and thereby they justifie themselves to be Christ for they refuse any Christ to be without them to judge and justifie them And thus that dark speech aforesaid comes forth cleered shewing how and by what authority every believer to wit every believing quaker do justifie themselves and so every such believer is justified by a self-quaker-Christ alone without any imputation which being done then there is a quakers self-constituted Christ holy and perfect in all respects inherently without any additional imputation of
