A87231	The Quakers quaking: or, the foundation of their deceit shaken, by scripture, reason, their own mouthes at several conferences. By all which will appear, that their quaking, ministery, doctrine, and lives, is a meer deceit, and themselves proved to be the great impostors of these latter times: / by Jeremiah Ives.	Ives, Jeremiah, fl. 1653-1674.	1656 (1656)	Wing I1103; Thomason E883_3; ESTC R207296	36,620	64

because_o i_o have_v purge_v thou_o and_o thou_o be_v not_o purge_v that_o be_v as_o if_o god_n have_v say_v i_o have_v do_v that_o which_o be_v sufficient_a for_o thy_o purgation_n and_o the_o like_a

of_o the_o deed_n do_v in_o the_o body_n and_o there_o be_v thousand_o and_o ten_o thousand_o that_o have_v not_o give_v a_o account_n than_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n be_v

waterbaptism_n it_o appear_v by_o what_o i_o have_v already_o say_v by_o way_n of_o reply_n to_o this_o notion_n also_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o heb._n 6._o of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o baptism_n

yet_o he_o say_v there_o be_v but_o one_o lord_n jesus_n so_o in_o like_a manner_n we_o read_v of_o divers_a baptism_n as_o of_o water_n and_o affliction_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n yet_o there_o

every_o man_n in_o the_o world_n have_v the_o light_n within_o he_o speak_v of_o in_o john_n 1_o to_o this_o james_n nayler_n reply_v say_v that_o christ_n do_v inlighten_v every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n according_a to_o joh._n 1._o to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o i_o do_v not_o oppose_v the_o say_n of_o that_o text_n but_o his_o say_n which_o be_v that_o every_o one_o in_o the_o

say_v the_o light_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o in_o he_o to_o this_o i_o do_v answer_v first_o that_o every_o man_n in_o the_o world_n be_v not_o in_o that_o place_n and_o therefore_o if_o every_o one_o in_o that_o place_n shall_v say_v this_o light_n be_v in_o they_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o therefore_o that_o light_n speak_v of_o joh._n 1._o be_v in_o every_o one_o in_o the_o world_n but_o second_o i_o tell_v he_o that_o if_o every_o one_o in_o that_o place_n will_v say_v they_o have_v this_o light_n in_o they_o it_o do_v 〈…〉_o as_o i_o fear_v many_o of_o this_o generation_n do_v i_o do_v therefore_o bid_v james_n nayler_n to_o give_v i_o a_o scripture_n to_o prove_v that_o every_o one_o have_v the_o light_n within_o they_o speak_v of_o joh._n 1._o he_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v prove_v already_o in_o every_o man_n conscience_n but_o say_v he_o it_o be_v not_o evidence_v for_o if_o it_o be_v there_o will_v need_v no_o teach_v to_o this_o i_o reply_v that_o if_o it_o be_v prove_v to_o every_o man_n conscience_n than_o it_o be_v evidence_v for_o proof_n and_o evidence_n to_o the_o conscience_n be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o which_o he_o deny_v i_o further_o tell_v he_o that_o the_o conscience_n may_v be_v misguide_v and_o therefore_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o a_o thing_n be_v therefore_o true_a because_o a_o man_n in_o conscience_n think_v it_o so_o i_o therefore_o as_o before_o call_v for_o a_o plain_a text_n for_o proof_n of_o what_o he_o say_v he_o thereupon_o bring_v eph._n 5.13_o 2_o cor._n 4.6_o i_o tell_v he_o neither_o of_o these_o scripture_n do_v prove_v that_o every_o man_n in_o the_o world_n have_v the_o light_n within_o he_o speak_v of_o joh._n 1._o and_o therefore_o if_o he_o have_v any_o scripture_n that_o say_v it_o he_o will_v do_v well_o to_o produce_v it_o and_o if_o not_o to_o forbear_v preach_v any_o such_o thing_n that_o he_o can_v show_v no_o scripture_n for_o hereupon_o james_n assume_v a_o apostolical_a

have_v no_o scripture_n for_o to_o this_o i_o reply_v that_o he_o be_v no_o apostle_n and_o therefore_o as_o before_o call_v for_o a_o proof_n of_o this_o notion_n that_o they_o preach_v in_o most_o

the_o world_n if_o this_o light_n be_v not_o in_o every_o one_o to_o this_o i_o do_v answer_v as_o former_o that_o god_n and_o christ_n be_v usual_o say_v in_o scripture-dialect_n to_o do_v thing_n for_o the_o world_n when_o they_o do_v use_v a_o mean_n sufficient_a for_o the_o do_v of_o it_o and_o so_o christ_n be_v say_v to_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n and_o to_o be_v the_o

that_o if_o a_o man_n walk_v in_o the_o dark_a he_o stumble_v because_o there_o be_v no_o light_n in_o he_o now_o i_o tell_v james_n nayler_n that_o those_o that_o he_o say_v he_o turn_v from_o

after_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v practise_v to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v by_o christ_n command_v after_o that_o he_o rise_v from_o the_o dead_a see_v

leave_v undo_v i_o demand_v whether_o it_o be_v not_o then_o as_o great_a a_o sin_n in_o peter_n act_v 10._o to_o command_v the_o do_v of_o it_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n as_o it_o be_v for_o man_n to_o forbid_v to_o marry_v or_o to_o command_v to_o abstain_v from_o meat_n 1_o tim._n 4.2_o 3._o see_v that_o to_o command_v the_o do_v of_o that_o which_o god_n have_v leave_v to_o

i_o answer_v first_o how_o will_v this_o be_v prove_v that_o all_o they_o that_o be_v then-baptized_n be_v so_o command_v be_v not_o the_o contrary_a to_o this_o easy_o make_v manifest_a from_o act_n
