A56305	The church of Christ in Bristol recovering her vail out of the hands of them that have smitten and wounded her, and taken it away. Being, a just and necessary vindication, from a false and scandalous imputation cast upon her by Dennis Hollister, formerly a member of her, but now an apostate from, and an opposer of those waies, truths, and people, which once he seemed zealous for. As appears by a late pamphlet put forth by him, called, The skirts of the whore discovered. With some particular words, from some particular persons whom he hath by name abused and reproached. Likewise a word by Thomas Ewen, unto what concerns him in the said pamphlet, and also to the later part of another book, called, Satan enthroned in his chair of pestilence.

in_o scripture_n give_v to_o reprobate_n and_o castawaies_a and_o so_o conclude_v with_o that_o 2_o thes_n 2._o 8._o now_o we_o desire_v any_o sober_a christian_a to_o consider_v of_o this_o your_o

enough_o still_o to_o mourn_v for_o complain_v of_o and_o pray_v against_o a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o ministry_n thereof_o i_o do_v not_o speak_v this_o of_o all_o nor_o intend_v it_o to_o all_o for_o i_o doubt_v not_o to_o affirm_v against_o the_o quaker_n that_o god_n have_v many_o precious_a servant_n in_o the_o ministry_n both_o among_o those_o call_a presbyterian_o and_o they_o call_v independent_o and_o the_o baptise_a and_o some_o that_o be_v of_o or_o under_o none_o of_o these_o name_n yea_o both_o learned_a and_o unlearned_a etc._n etc._n who_o yet_o be_v faithful_a to_o the_o lord_n jesus_n and_o do_v prefer_v the_o conversion_n and_o salvation_n of_o precious_a soul_n before_o all_o the_o treasure_n in_o the_o world_n and_o who_o do_v rejoice_v to_o see_v that_o work_n of_o god_n carry_v on_o by_o any_o either_o learn_v or_o unlearned_a as_o man_n now_o speak_v and_o i_o trust_v that_o as_o the_o lord_n who_o hold_v the_o star_n in_o his_o right_a hand_n will_v establish_v such_o so_o the_o time_n be_v near_o when_o man_n shall_v not_o wear_v a_o rough_a garment_n or_o a_o prophetical_a garb_n to_o deceive_v but_o that_o the_o false_a prophet_n and_o unclean_a spirit_n shall_v pass_v out_o of_o the_o land_n and_o that_o god_n will_v raise_v up_o and_o give_v pastor_n according_a to_o his_o own_o heart_n for_o faithful_a be_v he_o that_o have_v promise_v who_o also_o will_v do_v it_o and_o whereas_o he_o say_v page_n 68_o that_o you_o shall_v know_v they_o to_o wit_n the_o ignorant_a and_o unlettered_a minister_n by_o this_o badge_n or_o character_n they_o be_v separate_v factious_a and_o schismatical_a etc._n etc._n i_o remember_v these_o be_v word_n much_o in_o use_n and_o cast_v as_o brand_n upon_o the_o godly_a people_n call_v puritan_n by_o the_o bishop_n and_o their_o clergy_n about_o 20_o or_o 30_o year_n ago_o and_o how_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o these_o word_n be_v take_v up_o again_o i_o know_v not_o unless_o it_o be_v that_o the_o same_o spirit_n that_o be_v in_o the_o bishop_n and_o their_o clergy_n be_v again_o revive_v and_o if_o so_o than_o they_o in_o who_o it_o be_v have_v best_o take_v heed_n that_o they_o apply_v those_o nickname_n right_a than_o the_o former_a do_v lest_o etc._n etc._n but_o i_o shall_v give_v another_o badge_n or_o character_n of_o those_o that_o i_o mean_v and_o that_o be_v you_o shall_v always_o know_v they_o by_o their_o pride_n envy_n and_o covetousness_n or_o their_o scorn_v revile_v and_o persecute_v all_o those_o that_o differ_v from_o they_o and_o therefore_o as_o he_o commend_v the_o caution_n and_o counsel_n of_o the_o apostle_n rom._n 16._o 17._o 18._o so_o shall_v i_o make_v bold_a humble_o to_o recommend_v the_o caution_n and_o counsel_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n matth._n 7._o 15_o 16._o beware_v of_o false_a prophet_n etc._n etc._n for_o by_o their_o fruit_n you_o shall_v know_v they_o i_o do_v not_o speak_v this_o of_o any_o godly_a man_n or_o man_n for_o i_o know_v no_o godly_a man_n can_v do_v so_o as_o above_o now_o for_o his_o close_a word_n to_o the_o minister_n that_o be_v lawful_o call_v etc._n etc._n if_o by_o lawful_o call_v he_o mean_v pastor_n or_o elder_n call_v choose_v constitute_v ordain_v and_o appoint_v to_o office_n in_o church_n and_o by_o church_n according_a to_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o according_a to_o the_o example_n and_o practice_n of_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n both_o in_o new_a england_n and_o old_a than_o i_o free_o close_a with_o he_o therein_o for_o such_o a_o call_v and_o ordination_n i_o own_o and_o plead_v for_o according_a to_o scripture_n but_o if_o by_o minister_n lawful_o call_v he_o mean_v all_o the_o parish_n minister_n in_o england_n or_o bristol_n as_o such_o than_o i_o can_v but_o wonder_v how_o any_o man_n pretend_v to_o godliness_n dare_v so_o to_o abuse_v that_o precious_a scripture_n act_v 20._o 28._o and_o how_o he_o will_v be_v able_a to_o prove_v that_o parish_n be_v such_o church_n and_o that_o all_o parish_n minister_n be_v such_o and_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n make_v overseer_n in_o the_o sense_n of_o that_o scripture_n for_o my_o own_o part_n i_o must_v be_v silent_a and_o so_o i_o think_v may_v he_o well_o have_v be_v it_o be_v true_a the_o 29._o verse_n may_v in_o a_o sense_n be_v right_o apply_v to_o some_o man_n in_o england_n that_o call_v themselves_o minister_n who_o since_o the_o apostle_n time_n and_o the_o apostasy_n that_o follow_v have_v like_o grievous_a wolf_n enter_v in_o not_o spare_v the_o flock_n etc._n etc._n i_o write_v not_o this_o of_o nor_o intend_v it_o to_o any_o godly_a man_n of_o any_o judgement_n whatsoever_o but_o as_o for_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o jerk_n jeer_n quible_n scoff_v derision_n reproach_n and_o untruth_n which_o he_o have_v cast_v upon_o i_o with_o all_o the_o injury_n and_o wrong_n that_o he_o have_v thereby_o do_v to_o i_o i_o shall_v lay_v it_o at_o my_o foot_n look_v upon_o it_o as_o the_o fruit_n of_o a_o frothy_a brain_n and_o the_o product_n of_o a_o spleenish_a temper_n and_o shall_v not_o bestow_v a_o pen_n full_a of_o ink_n or_o one_o minute_n time_n to_o answer_v it_o but_o do_v rather_o in_o my_o heart_n wish_v and_o desire_n that_o he_o may_v so_o repent_v of_o this_o piece_n of_o folly_n and_o wretchedness_n whereby_o he_o have_v harden_v the_o heart_n and_o open_v the_o mouth_n of_o many_o against_o i_o that_o it_o may_v do_v his_o soul_n no_o more_o hurt_v another_o day_n than_o it_o do_v i_o at_o present_a in_o the_o mean_a time_n i_o resolve_v to_o sit_v down_o in_o silence_n as_o to_o he_o etc._n etc._n and_o now_o i_o return_v again_o to_o you_o denn●●_n hollister_n to_o close_v up_o my_o answer_n to_o your_o book_n and_o i_o can_v but_o take_v notice_n as_o many_o other_o do_v of_o your_o shameful_a abuse_v that_o precious_a upright_a servant_n of_o jesus_n christ_n robert_n simson_n though_o i_o suppose_v he_o will_v clear_v himself_o or_o at_o least_o his_o innocency_n will_v answer_v for_o he_o and_o stop_v your_o mouth_n another_o day_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n i_o can_v but_o bear_v a_o testimony_n of_o his_o integrity_n and_o your_o impudence_n in_o that_o you_o do_v so_o fierce_o and_o faisly_a charge_n he_o to_o be_v a_o liar_n whereas_o i_o can_v testify_v that_o the_o thing_n be_v true_a which_o he_o as_o messenger_n of_o the_o church_n do_v admonish_v you_o of_o namely_o that_o you_o shall_v say_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v a_o blind_a and_o plague_v to_o soul_n which_o thing_n you_o do_v speak_v at_o a_o public_a meeting_n in_o your_o own_o house_n as_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o there_o be_v more_o than_o twenty_o person_n some_o of_o the_o church_n and_o other_o not_o of_o the_o church_n who_o can_v also_o testify_v the_o same_o whether_o your_o meaning_n be_v then_o as_o now_o you_o write_v pag._n 18_o 19_o i_o shall_v not_o dispute_v but_o that_o you_o do_v speak_v those_o word_n be_v true_a and_o no_o lie_n invent_v nor_o lie_v prosecute_v etc._n etc._n therefore_o if_o there_o be_v any_o liar_n in_o this_o thing_n you_o be_v the_o liar_n yet_o i_o dare_v nor_o judge_v you_o to_o the_o lake_n but_o rather_o pray_v &_o hope_v that_o god_n may_v show_v a_o miracle_n of_o mercy_n in_o say_v you_o from_o it_o and_o do_v advise_v you_o to_o take_v heed_n how_o you_o throw_v they_o into_o the_o lake_n or_o under_o condemnation_n who_o jesus_n christ_n have_v by_o his_o precious_a blood_n and_o perfect_a righteousness_n gracious_o free_v from_o it_o and_o as_o for_o the_o sin_n of_o lie_v you_o will_v do_v well_o to_o east_n the_o beam_n out_o of_o your_o own_o eye_n etc._n etc._n for_o robert_n simpson_n be_v a_o man_n as_o well_o know_v in_o bristol_n to_o be_v a_o truth_n speaker_n and_o a_o just_a upright_o conscientious_a dealer_n as_o any_o of_o those_o that_o do_v accuse_v he_o i_o shall_v say_v no_o more_o but_o let_v every_o man_n prove_v his_o own_o work_n gal._n 6._o 4._o but_o pass_v by_o many_o of_o those_o impertinency_n in_o your_o book_n i_o find_v that_o after_o your_o letter_n to_o i_o there_o be_v a_o answer_n to_o 16._o
