A90622	A discovery of the priests, that say they are sent off by the Lord, but upon trial are found out of the commands of Christ, the prophets, and Apostles, and to be those that are not sent of the Lord, but to be such that the sent ones of the Lord did cry wo against, and to be such that are false apostles, deceitful, wicked, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ: and no marvail, for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light; therefore it is no great thing, if his ministers be transformed as the ministers of righteousness, ... With a few words to such professors and prophane, that together joyn to persecute the righteous: and to the ranters that do commit all manner of sins with greediness. Darkness denied by the children of Light, and the babe of Christ growing up to a perfect man. / Written from one who is known to the world by the name of John Pain, who accounts it great riches to suffer reproaches, and afflictions with the people of the Lord, who scornfully by the world are called Quakers, ... Written from Starford in Hartford-shire the 7. day of the 4. month. 1655.	Pain, John, shoemaker.	1655 (1655)	Wing P188; Thomason E848_22; ESTC R203094	39,396	39

made you manifest that these are works of darkness proceeding from darkness and will end in darkness O the deceit of some of the chief professors in the Town of Starfford when there come one into their place of meeting to declare against the Priests deceit before they did know what was spoken she was haled out by these professors which were then officers and was led by them to the Cage and there she did sit seven hours where she was pissed on and spit on by those bruites of Starfford 2 Thess 1.4 5 6 7 8. these professors knowing of it which they did tell me did grieve their hearts for to see and about two or three of the clock did come to my house to me to know whether I would receive her and I did tell them I would but they went away and did not bring her tell six of the clock at night here was the deceit of you made manifest had it grieved your hearts as you said it did Why did not you sooner release her but the double hearted man God will judge Know that mercy to your fellow creature had been better then sacrifice but thus is the heart made manifest that it may be known by the fruits of it The next day she was carried to a Justice thinking to lase her in prison but when they came there they had none to accuse her thus was their folly made manifest She came a second time to their meeting where she was haled out like a dog and the officers did turn her out of the grave-yard to the mercies of the heathen who rent her and did tear her pulling her head tire oft pulling her by the hair of the head and throwing her down in the street as she passed along to come to a friends house which is nigh half the quarter of a mile from the steeple house howling and shouting at their fellow creature was it not your office to see the peace kept that these bruites might not make a prey of her had not a stranger which was at our meeting took her part and rescued her from the violence of those heathen what he could he did see no other but they would have killed her Be ashamed that ever such wickedness should be suffered in a town professing Christ you Magistrates had warning to deal justly to love mercy to walk humbly with the Lord not to respect the persons of men in judgement but to deal righteously according to that righteous Law of God in the conscience was this a righteous act of yours to leave your fellow creature to the mercy of the heathen Take counsel together and it shall come to nought speak the word and it shall not stand for God is with us Oh all people will walke in the name of his God and we will walk in the name of the Lord our God for ever and ever Micha 4.6 DARKNESSE Denyed by the CHILDREN OF LIGHT IN the fourth moneth upon the sixth day of the moneth I went to John Pains house of Starford to know of him if he did not receive a letter of mine that was sent me from Cambridge from James Blackly Justice of the peace and he said he had none of it but James Blackly asked the Coachman that did bring it and he said it was delivered to Mr. Pain Minister of Starford his name being the same with mine both of us being named John Pain but if he had or hath it and doth deny it it is his deceit this was the cause of my going to his house And then when I was there with him he did begin with me about some words that I did say to him about the publike Ministery as it doth now stand the National Ministery that I did say the spirit of the Lord in their Ministery was departed from them that they should not convert one soul more to the Lord by their Ministery which thing was true I did so say to him and so I shall do still and the fruites of it shall appear more and more as they stand contrary to the commands of Christ they shall not as is proved they do they that neither follow the example of Christ Prophet nor Apostles they shall not profit the people their preaching is like the blood of a dead man as is manifest they have the form of truth but the power is denyed by them and so the power is not made manifest among them for this many yeers but this power was by thee denied for thou did tell me thou hadst not the infallible spirit of Paul if not that spirit J then another the spirit in the Saints is but one in all and is the spirit of truth that leads into all truth and shews things to come even the spirit of truth Joh. 14.17 whom the world cannot receive because it seeth him not neither knoweth him but we know him for had welleth with us and shall be in us and this spirit is the same as ever this spirit was in Paul in the Prophets in the Saints that ever were or ever shall be From this spirit was the Scripture gave forth and none but the spirit can reveal the Mysteries of God in them for no man doth know the things of God but the Spirit of God and he to whom the Spirit of God doth reveal them and he that hath not the Spirit of Christ is note of his and this spirit is the spirit of Revelation now in the Saints and no man knows any thing as he ought to know it but what is revealed by the spirit 1 Cor. 2.11 It is recorded in Scripture that the Spirit beareth witness with our spirits Rom. 8.9 that we are the sons of God How doth it witness but by revealing to our spirits 〈◊〉 it is so This is the earnest of our inheritance this is the intrance into the everlasting kingdom for there none of our names after the flesh are set down but this maketh known the white stone and the new name which no man doth know but those that do receive it and this spirit of revelation and the Apostle pray for for the Church of the Ephesians that the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ the father of 〈◊〉 may 〈◊〉 unto ●ou the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him Eph. 1.17 18. Eph. 4.4 5 6. and 〈◊〉 man 〈◊〉 the ●●ther but 〈◊〉 Son and he to whom the Son doth reveal him so revelations are not ceased as might be proved by many places of the Scripture yea I witness against all gain-sayers that Scripture fulfilled in me Joh. 16.13 That he will shew you things to come This I witness is truth and many with me will witness the same these things are hid from wise men and revealed to babes the weak things of the world confound the strong and might glory be to thy name for ever and ever 1 Cor. 12.13 This spirit is in all his Saints and this spirit is infallible it

cannot lye it is the spirit of truth and leads into all truth and it abideth with his for ever and is the same as ever was and is infallible Now as ever this thou didst deny and didst say thou hadst not the infallible spirit of Paul the spirit I told thee was but one in all the Saints and if thou hadst not that infallible spirit thy spirit I did deny thou didst stand for to maintain it by Argument and I gave the Bible to prove it there but thou didst not but thou didst say thou couldst do it but it must then be by some new Scripture of thy own making by that fallible spirit of thine the old Scripture that was given forth by the infallible spirit will not do it but that witnesseth and I witness with it against thee that this denying thou hast not the spirit that gave forth the Scriptures and art no Minister of Christ And here I charge thee to have a false spirit 1 Joh. 4.1 for thou not having the same spirit that gave forth the Scripture then another and so a false spirit and a spirit of evil and here thy spirit is tryed as the Scripture saith Try the spirits and it is found to be a seducing eye leading from the anointing in the Saints which is infallible and knows no difference between the infallible spirit of God in man and mans own spirit which is fallible but the anointing which ye hath received of him abideth in you and ye need not that any man teach you but as the same anointing teacheth you all things and is truth and is no lye and even as it hath taught you ye shall abide in him that spirit that doth draw away any from this anointing is the spirit of eror and the fallible spirit that the false Prophets ever had to oppose the infallible spirit where it was manifest thou didest then tell me thou hadst admonished me twice and told me the danger that was like to follow Joh. 2.2 to 28. for thou didst say I was now grown obstinate and then didst tell me an Heretick after the first and second admonition thou wast to reject but thou not having the infallible spirit that gave forth the Scripture Thy casting me out I do not regard they are nothing to me they will not enter they were not words spake forth from the life as may be known by them One of the times thou didst call me Coxcomb and the other time thou didst say we were a company of fools such admonitions were not given by the Apostles but these words came from thy fallible spirit for the spirit of truth saith He that calleth his brother fool Mat. 5.2 is in danger of hell fire And the infallible spirit saith Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouthes Eph. 4.2 30. but such as may Minister grace to the hearers but thy spirit will say any thing thy tongue is thy own Judge now you that are his hearers are you like to profit by such a one that cannot refrain his tongue from speaking evil and such are in the heresie Thou didst say he that was an heretick thou wouldst reject and thou didest bid me go away from thee thou wouldest have nothing to do with me nor speak no more with me when after that thou didst speak many words more to me which I told thee of and did ask thee wherefore thou didst do so when thou saidst thou would speak no more to me here was the lye found in thy mouth And thou didst bid me have a care of the Churches power for what they bound in earth was bound in heaven thou art under that Church power but for the power of your Church your curse and your blessing all is one as was made manifest in Scotland when our Army went into the Land there was curse upon curse excommunication one after another See your Churches power or rather your blindness to curse those the Lord will bless and did bless your curses and theirs Num. is like to Balaams curses all off one power they are the instruments as they are in your hands of foolish shepherds though Church-power I do own and wo be to that that is under their censure that must be given to Sathan that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord but this is done by the infallible spirit in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ When you are rathered together 1 Cor. 5.4 5 and my spirit with the power of the Lord Jesus Christ to deliver such a one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord. But Pauls infallible spirit is denyed by you and your Churches censures denyed by me The Babe in Christ growing up to a perfect man Heb. 5.13 Eph. 4.13 He that hath the Son hath this witness in him THe heresies that thou did cast me our for were these 1. That I did hold perfection in this life A state of perfection I would have proved there was and I did take the Bible so for to do but thou didst take it out of my hand and did knock it many times together as if thou hadst not been thy self and would not suffer me for to speak Joh. 3.6 but thou said thou would stand for the truth against all the Hereticks in the world and maintain it that there was no perfection in this life 1 Cor. 15.47 48 49. That which was given forth from the infallible spirit will prove it that which is born of the flesh is flesh and that which is born of the spirit is spirit the first man of the earth earthly the second man is the Lord from heaven as is the earthly Joh. 1.13 such are those that are earthly and as is the heavenly such are they also that are heavenly which were born not of blood John 3.3 nor of the will of man but of God the first birth is of the earth and is earthly and shall never enter into the kingdom except a man be born again he cannot see the kingdom of God but being born again not of corruptible seed but of incorruptible seed by the word of God which liveth and abideth for ever this is the new birth that maketh the new man and this new man is created in righteousness and holiness after the similitude of him that did create him 1 Pet. 1.23 and this new man is perfect yea know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself and the wicked one reacheth him not This is the new mans state of perfection which is the state of life and nothing that is not perfect shall never enter the kingdom no unclean thing shall enter that which is not perfect is not clean 1 Joh. 5.18 and here thou hast shewed thy self to be ignorant of the perfect state of the Saints and yet thou will say thy self there is a

to live Were not the mouthes of the world open against them with all manner of revilings scoffings and scornings Were not professors gainsaying and blaspheming Were not some hewn asunder and some sawne asunder whom the world was not worthy Act. 13.45 in prisons oft in perils oft in travels oft had no certain dwelling place but sent about from place to place from City to City yet were no vagabonds in hunger and nackedness hid in caves and dens of the earth they were halled out of their Synagogues they were had before Rulers for the witnessing of Jesus Now know those that the Lord hath sent forth now to declare the same everlasting Gospel their lives are not dear to them Nay wo are they if they preach it not what affliction or persecution so ever from the world they do indure counting it their joy to suffer for Christ who hath called them forth to the work of the Ministery And now is this Scripture fulfilled and fulfilling that God hath revealed his counsel to babes and sucklings and hath hid these things from the wife and prudent 1 Cor. 1.27 28 for so it hath pleased him and God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things that are mighty and base things of the world and things that are despised hath God chosen yea the things that are not to bring to nought things that are that no flesh should glory in his sight but as it is written Let him that glories glory in the Lord. Praised be the Lord for ever that after this long night of darkness he hath sent forth his messengers to direct us to the true light that doth lead into purity and holiness bringing down all things that would exalt it self Heb. 11.26 this is witnessed in those that do obey it to their everlasting joy and comfort unto whom the reproaches of the world is great riches this I do witness that they do approve themselves to the conscience in the sight of God and approve themselves as the Ministers of God in much patience in afflictions in necessities in distresses in stripes and imprisonments in tumults in labors in watchings and fastings by pureness 1 Cor. 4.2 by knowledge by long suffering by kindness by the Holy Ghost by love unfained by the word of truth by the peace of God by the Armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left by honor and dishonor by good report and evil report as deceivers and yet true as unknown and yet well known as dying and behold we live as chastised and not killed as sorrowful yet alwayes rejoycing as poor yet making many rich as having nothing and yet possessing all things All that are joyned by one spirit to them in their measure this doth witness against all ravenous beasts and the Vultur's eye Now consider all sorts of men professors and prophane that do joyn together for to scoff and scorn revile and persecute these innocent Lambes of Christ which he hath sent forth among the Wolves of the world who are rent and torn by you say you had warning for know whatsoever you do to one his little ones that believes in him ye do it to himself and so it will be taken and you judged accordingly and it were better that you had never been born for the Lord will execute judgement upon all and to convince all that are ungodly among you of all your ungodly deeds Jud. 14. which they have ungodly committed and of all your hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against them What you speak against the servants of Christ you speak against Christ all your hard speeches all your evil surmisings against them is all known to the Lord who is just and righteous and will not suffer the wicked to go unpunished Repent repent and turn to the Lord the great day of the Lord is neer it is neer it hasteth greatly even the great day of the Lord the mighty man shall cry out bitterly that day is a day of wrath a day of trouble and distress a day of wastness and desolation a day of darkness and gloominess a day of clouds and thick darkness and I will bring distress upon men and they shall walk like blinde men because they have sinned against the Lord this shall they have for their pride because they reproached and magnified themselves against the people of the Lord of hostes the Lord will be terrible unto you then you will wish the mountains to fall upon you and hide you from the presence of the Lord so terrible will the Lord be to all the enemies of Sion for he will set his Son upon that holy hill and he will roar out of Sion and utter his voice out of Jerusalem and terribly shake the earth and he will famish the gods of the earth and men shall worship him every one from his place even all the Isses of the heathen for then will I turn to the people a pure language that they may call upon the name of the Lord and serve him with one consent Amos 3.16 and will shake all Nations and the desire of all Nations shall come No wart these promises fulfilled and fulfilling praises be to the Lord for ever he hath turned to his people a pure language and they do serve him with one consent Heb. 12 2● and now is the shaking all Nations shaking earth and shaking heaven that those things that cannot be shaken may remain therefore take heed you powers of the earth how you set your power against this great power of the Lord least he shake you out with the workers of iniquity when he shall come to cleanse the Land of evil doers for at last he will make his Jerusalem a praise upon the earth and he will arise and have mercy upon his Sion Behold at that time I will undo all that afflict thee and will get them praise and fame in every land where they have been put to shame Consider this ye persecuters ye scoffers and scorners ye sons of Ishmael who scoffes the righteous and makes a scorn of the upright but the Lord that sits in heaven shall laugh have you in derision and will mock when your fear cometh Prov. 1.26 27. your destruction shall come like a whirle winde affliction and anguish shall come upon you then shall you call but he will not answer you but shall cast you forth with the workers of iniquity Repent behold the day cometh that shall burn as an even and all the proud yea all that do wickedly shall be stuble and the day that cometh shall burn them up it shall leave you neither root nor branch and ye shall be troden under the soles of their feet in the day that I shall do this saith the Lord of Hosts Repent all scoffers and scorners repent all proud ones which know not what to eat

sixteenth but they have salt in themselves to savor withal at all seasons they shall not need to run to old Authors to patch piece up Sermons and to write them down and tell the people this is the word of the Lord when he never spake that unto them this is their artificial preaching that their study and Art have furnished them with all this is their boldness before the Lord to speak their own inventions and not the word of the Lord. The word of the Lord is life and power the word of the Lord doth sanctifie the word of the Lord doth ingraft the word of the Lord 's a sword to cut down the word of the Lord is fire the word of the Lord doth purifie the word of the Lord is a hammer Joh. 17.17 but where are these things witnessed amongst you where is the power of the word Whom hath it sanctified whom hath it ingrafted Heb. 4.12 whom hath it cut down what hath it burned up is your Lead and Tin consumed are you purified by it what hath it broke down amongst you doth not your high thoughts stand still doth not your own wills stand still doth not pride and covetousness stand still doth not wrath stand still doth not envy stand still do not these fruites of the flesh and such like stand Flatter not your selves Jam. 1.21 for such things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience those that spake the word of the Lord witnessed these things to pass upon them and so they did first learnt their own Ministery thorow the death of the first wisdom Isa 23.29 and so came to witness the Ministery of death to be glorious and so came to witness Moses and never none come to witness the glorious Ministery of life but come to witness the glorious ministration of death death doth pass upon all men for all men have sinned and so come to witness deaths reign from Adam to Moses who is the figure of him that was to come and so come to witness that as sin hath raigned unto death even so grace reigns thorow righteousness unto eternal life thorow Jesus Christ our Lord and so came to witness both states of death and life and so came to witness the Prophets John and the Apostles and witness the covenant of peace and life this was their way they went in these were the sootsteps of the flock of Christ and then went forth to preach to the world and did gather a people out of the world by their Ministery and there were daily added to the Church such as should be saved and those that were thus gathered by the eternal word living in them were of one heart and one minde and they were the 〈◊〉 of the Lord and those did edifi● one another in their most holy faith they were not of the world but chosen out of the world and the Church vvas in God and in Christ and it is the pillar and ground of truth the fulness of him that doth fill all things Heb. 2.11 to the 15. all members of his body for both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren saying I will declare thy name among my brethren they are begotten by the immortal seed of God partakers of the Divine nature the Sons of God living stones builded upon the rock Christ Jesus in vvhom the whole building fitly framed together groweth up to a holy Temple in the Lord and from his Holy Temple doth he make known his will to the intent that novv unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the Church the manifold wisdom of God Eph. 2.10 Therefore silence proud flesh that would be exalting it self above your fellow members Now professors see and try if it be thus with you and your teachers can they witness this way into the Ministery or can you witness that you are of this Church of the first born whose names are vvritten in heaven and come to the spirits of just men made perfect If not in your measures flatter not your selves with a Ministery and a Church and Ordinances for it vvill not avail you Remember the Jews I spake of before their Ordinances and their Priveleges were very great they had the true form but wanted the power they did offer sacrifices they did observe Sabbaths and nevv Moons Isa 1.13 14 15 16 17. and had solemne dayes they had obligations and incense yet these were counted by the Lord iniquity the soul of the Lord hated them they were a burden to him he was weary to bear them and though they made many prayers yet he would not hear them yet these were ordinances of the Lords appointing there vvas not a ceasing to do evil and a learning to do vvell they did not seek judgement nor relieve the oppressed nor judge the fatherless nor defend the vviddovv there vvas no fruites of righteousness brought forth in their high profession a fruitless profession reaching at the shaddovvs but did neglect the substance friends deal honestly vvith your selves do you think the profession of truth vvill serve your turns and stand you in any stead before the Lord. When the secrets of all hearts shall be laid open they that have the form of the truth and not the povver 2 Tim. 5. to the 7. vve are commanded from such to turn avvay and vvill not the Lord turn avvay from such vvhich he hath commanded us to turn avvay from yea he vvill of such sort are those that lead filly vvomen captive ever learning and never able to come to the knovvledge of the truth Is it not thus in your Assemblies vvhich are so great some learning ten yeers some tvventy yeers some fourty yeers some threescore yeers and yet ignorant of the very first principle of that which turns the minde to God and so no good do know but ever Learning when for the time yee ought to be teaching ye had need that one teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God these are the house creepers for had Paul spoke against preaching in a private house Act. 28.29 20 31. he had spoke against his own practice for it was his manner so for to do he did preach in his own hired house and did dispute in markets and reason in the Jews Synagogues with the devout persons daily and how oft was Paul haled out beaten and stoned while some supposed he had been dead some said what will this babler say they counted it new doctrine and strange things and thus it is at this day calling it a disturbance so for to do and by the same spirits are persecuted Now as those were then haled Act. 5.25 rent and torn read the Scriptures and see if these things be not so and there you may finde your own actions done by the same spirits therefore boast not your selves but this

is your Church orders for shame disown such filthy practices and see what spirits you do joyn with those that are of the world those are beloved of the world for the world doth love her own but those that are not of the world Act. 17.17 18. the world doth hate them there is emnity put between the seed of the woman and the seed of the Serpent never can those be reconciled the evil spirit knows the evil spirit in another though one hath got the form and words of truth if the life be wanting the spirit of the prophane world and their spirits will joyn together to persecute the power but as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the spirit Heb. 13.2 even so it is now It is no new thing when the Church was scattered about and went up and down preaching the Gospel and had no certain dwelling places but their habitation was in God how were they hated by the world and made the very off-scowring of it of whom the world was not worthy they were strangers to them and therefore hated by them but to entertain strangers forget not 1 Tim. 5.10 oppress not a stranger because he is a stranger when the widdows were taken into the Church they were well reported of for good works if she hath brought up her children if she hath lodged strangers if she hath washed the Saints feet What Church is yours that will not do this to strangers but persecute them and imprison them speak all manner of evil of them when they offer violence to no man Consider this both Priest and people is it not thus with you are not these fruits made manifest and yet you are not ashamed to call your selves a Church you are indeed the Synagogues of Satan behold I will make them of the Synagogue of Satan which say they are Jews and are not but do lie Behold I will make them to come and worship before thy feet and to know that I have loved thee he is not a Jew that is one owardly but he is a Jew that is one inwardly and Circumcision is that of the heart in the spirit and not in the letter Rom. 2.32 whose praise is of God not of men Now where the heart is purified fruites of persecution doth not appear nor neither can they but there love gentleness to all men doth appear doing by others as they would be done to But if these fruits do still remain among you lie not against the truth your Religion is in vain it will not endure the fire but this is the National Church that are baptized Gal. 2.27 but not into Christ and here is the world made the Church of whom Christ is not the head nor they his members Rom. 6.3 4 and here the world rests as if they were the people of the Lord and if any doth come to speak to the contrary then they are all of an uproare like bruit beasts Do not your teachers joyn with the world in feastings in idle speeches and in foolish jeastings that do administer no grace to the hearers telling tales and stories which are pleasing to the flesh which they do soon receive Act. 16.5 for it is one with them and so prophaneness is gone forth from the Priests the Ministers of Christ their life was an example and pattern of holiness but you strengthen the hands of the wicked and dishonor the Lord of purity and holiness Is this to keep your selves unspoted of the world are not these spots in your feasts to feed your selves without fear and joyn with the world if you did reprove them sharply when you did hear of unsavory words not seasoned with grace they would not endure your company it would be as fire amongst them But like Priest like people the Ministers of Christ they say have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness but rather reprove them that they may be ashamed is this your practice no it is not you go from place to place a feasting into all companies Eph. 5.4 and 11. and so get the love of all but wo be to you you joyn with the world and the great ones of the world and have their persons in admiration because of advantage bowing and cringing and worshipping the seed of Haman which Mordcai would not do you are respecters of persons and so are transgressors of the Law of God this you to do get a living from them though they are not for Christ but for their lusts and pride most of them these are beloved by you and you do not speak against them because of your gain Jud. 16. and the honor you have from them you speak of sin in the general and live the life of it and so it is put off from the one to the other Jam. 4.9 but which of you do as the prophet did to David say thou art the man come home to them and speak in particular and then you will try them dealing faithfully not fearing the face of man which must perish but approve your hearts to the Lord is this practised among you is not the contrary do you not daube the great ones with untempered mo●ter Hest 3.2 speaking peace to the wicked Did you forsake and shun their companies and not joyn with them in pride and filthiness and works of the flesh they would soon hate you or their filthy practices practises there would be no living thus but a separation you would see But are not fruits of pride and covetuousness which is idolatry fruites of envy and malice made manifest among your Church and hearers these fruits maketh it manifest that you are one with the world say what you will Are not they the false prophets that are entered into the world in fellowship with the world beloved of the world Who is it that doth side with you for to defend you when any doth come from the Lord to speak to you to leave your deceits Do not the rude multitude side with you swearers drunkards scoffers and railers and your professors al together tearing and rending like ravenous beasts see now where you are what spirit joyns for you be ashamed that ever such beasts should take your parts did ever such bruites heathens take part with the Apostles when they were halled out of their Synagogues no they did not as it was then so it is now See now where is your Religion the pure Religion reacheth to do by another as ye would be done by not to tear and rend like beasts of prey your fellow creatures Act. 19.32 36 37 39 40. beating and smiting of them are these the fruites of the spirit no they are not but fruites of the flesh Is this your Church order be ashamed for ever that such should joyn with you but by your fruites you are known and the fruites of your Ministery received from man is now made manifest the day hath
