A57809	The Quakers refuge fixed upon the rock of ages, though the swelling waters dash never so violently to overturn it wherein is prov'd, that the narrative of Ralph James is an absolute lying-wonder, according to his own definition : and also, the great controversie between the people of God called Quakers, and others, about the holy spirit of God and the Scriptures, truly stated, and very briefly discoursed, as it is owned by the Quakers, and the truth cleared from the false suggestions and deceitful insinuatins of the anabaptists about the said controversie : in answer to a subtil pamphlet, lately published, intituled, The Quakers subterfuge or evasion overturned : also a few queries propounded unto Ralph James, and the author of the subterfuge &c. / by Robert Ruckhill ; to which is added another postscript in answer to some queries propounded in the said pamphlet, wherein many untruths are suggested ; but herein the truth is cleared, and the evasion and deceit of the Baptists made more fully manifest by John Whitehead.	Ruckhill, Robert.; Whitehead, John, 1630-1696.	1673 (1673)	Wing R2169; ESTC R21457	28,153	51

that_o he_o will_v for_o advantage_n rather_o wilful_o mistake_v our_o principle_n then_o have_v a_o right_a understanding_n of_o they_o and_o he_o have_v further_a show_v his_o dishonesty_n and_o

wherefore_o that_o you_o may_v right_o understand_v this_o case_n i_o declare_v that_o the_o word_n which_o be_v speak_v by_o i_o be_v speak_v in_o a_o exclusive_a sense_n and_o that_o upon_o the_o

may_v just_o challenge_v the_o prerogative_n to_o denominate_v for_o without_o soul_n and_o spirit_n a_o mortal_a body_n neither_o be_v nor_o can_v true_o be_v term_v man_n no_o more_o can_v the_o
