A70157 A just defence and vindication of Gospel ministers and Gospel ordinances against the Quakers many false accusations, slanders and reproaches. In ansvver to John Horwood his letter, and E.B. his book, called, A just and lawful tryal of the ministers and teachers of this age, and several others. Proving the ministers calling and maintenance just and lawful, and the doctrine of perfection by free justification, preached by them, agreeable to the scriptures. VVith the Quakers objections answered. And the Quakers perfection by hearkning to, and obeying a light within them, proved contrary to the scriptures. And their practices in ten particulars proved contrary to the commands and examples of Christ and his apostles. By a lover of gospel ministers and gospel ordinances.

to_o receive_v the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n aright_o and_o that_o he_o do_v first_o by_o lay_v down_o christ_n institution_n and_o command_n unto_o he_o for_o the_o use_n of_o that_o ordinance_n and_o second_o show_v the_o great_a danger_n of_o unworthy_a receive_n three_o direct_v they_o how_o to_o receive_v the_o same_o aright_o but_o let_v a_o man_n examine_v himself_o 28._o and_o so_o let_v he_o eat_v of_o that_o bread_n and_o drink_v of_o that_o cup._n as_o if_o the_o apostle_n have_v say_v though_o there_o be_v such_o danger_n in_o unworthy_a receive_n abuse_v yet_o will_v i_o not_o have_v you_o neglect_v the_o same_o but_o examine_v yourselves_o and_o so_o come_v and_o in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o chapter_n tell_v they_o verse_n that_o the_o rest_n i_o will_v set_v in_o order_n when_o i_o come_v but_o you_o quaker_n will_v have_v no_o order_n and_o as_o this_o be_v the_o practice_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n so_o have_v it_o be_v the_o practice_n of_o all_o reform_a church_n since_o the_o apostle_n day_n you_o quaker_n be_v alone_o in_o this_o practice_n and_o woe_n be_v to_o he_o that_o be_v alone_o and_o a_o woe_n be_v to_o they_o who_o be_v so_o

i_o leave_v to_o your_o serious_a consideration_n and_o be_v your_o own_o judge_n whether_o you_o be_v perfect_a who_o walk_v so_o contrary_a to_o the_o command_n and_o example_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n see_v the_o apostle_n exhort_v be_v you_o follower_n of_o i_o as_o i_o be_o of_o christ_n and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o a_o three_o particular_a wherein_o your_o practice_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o example_n and_o practice_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n and_o all_o reform_a church_n the_o three_o particular_a be_v your_o different_a practice_n from_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n in_o sing_v of_o psalm_n wherefore_o i_o shall_v lay_v down_o this_o for_o a_o truth_n that_o se_v of_o psalm_n with_o a_o voice_n be_v a_o part_n of_o god_n worship_n now_o in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n as_o well_o as_o in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o old_a for_o proof_n whereof_o take_v the_o example_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n 30._o who_o sing_v a_o psalm_n or_o hymme_n together_o after_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n which_o be_v a_o time_n of_o sorrow_n and_o heaviness_n for_o christ_n have_v new_o tell_v they_o before_o of_o his_o be_v betray_v and_o the_o time_n of_o his_o suffering_n be_v near_o at_o hand_n and_o yet_o they_o sing_v a_o psalm_n together_o which_o sure_o be_v for_o our_o example_n also_o the_o apostle_n paul_n and_o silas_n be_v in_o prison_n 25._o sing_v praise_n unto_o god_n also_o the_o apostle_n paul_n instruct_v and_o exhort_v the_o ephesian_n 19_o to_o speak_v one_o to_o another_o in_o psalm_n and_o

the_o corinthian_n 16._o that_o such_o as_o sing_v in_o the_o church_n shall_v not_o only_o sing_v in_o the_o spirit_n but_o with_o understanding_n also_o those_o who_o sing_v when_o they_o have_v get_v victory_n over_o the_o beast_n be_v say_v to_o sing_v the_o song_n of_o moses_n and_o the_o lamb_n 3._o by_o which_o it_o seem_v that_o the_o song_n of_o moses_n do_v suit_n with_o that_o deliverance_n but_o it_o be_v object_v by_o you_o and_o other_o object_n that_o these_o be_v not_o the_o psalm_n of_o david_n but_o some_o other_o hymn_n or_o spiritual_a song_n immediate_o inspire_v which_o you_o like_v well_o and_o sometime_o persuade_v yourselves_o that_o you_o have_v such_o inspiration_n and_o fall_v a_o sing_v mere_a nonsense_n which_o edify_v neither_o yourselves_o nor_o other_o wherefore_o i_o shall_v show_v that_o all_o these_o three_o title_n be_v give_v to_o david_n psalm_n some_o be_v call_v psalm_n some_o be_v call_v hymn_n some_o be_v call_v song_n that_o be_v

apostle_n shall_v direct_v we_o in_o our_o sing_n to_o the_o very_a title_n of_o david_n psalm_n if_o it_o be_v not_o his_o meaning_n that_o we_o shall_v sing_v they_o so_o that_o you_o must_v exclude_v the_o psalm_n of_o david_n from_o the_o name_n of_o psalm_n and_o hymn_n and_o spiritual_a song_n or_o else_o you_o must_v be_v force_v to_o acknowledge_v that_o we_o be_v exhort_v to_o

of_o the_o passover_n and_o some_o affirm_v that_o it_o be_v the_o 118_o psalm_n which_o christ_n do_v sing_v i_o confess_v by_o the_o suitableness_n of_o the_o psalm_n to_o the_o occasion_n there_o may_v be_v some_o probability_n but_o i_o think_v no_o certainty_n but_o our_o psalm_n be_v not_o the_o same_o in_o meet_a object_n nor_o the_o same_o tune_n which_o the_o jew_n have_v that_o see_v

fit_v the_o solemnity_n of_o god_n worship_n and_o that_o because_o that_o tune_n be_v but_o circumstantial_a and_o not_o the_o substance_n and_o the_o church_n now_o in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v not_o in_o her_o minority_n or_o young_a age_n 6._o but_o in_o her_o man-age_n or_o full_a grow_v age_n as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v and_o therefore_o fit_a to_o appoint_v circumstantial_a thing_n in_o god_n worship_n then_o the_o jew_n be_v in_o their_o nonage_n but_o david_n psalm_n be_v to_o be_v sing_v with_o david_n spirit_n object_n or_o the_o same_o spirit_n
