THE Unequal Unyoked AND The Equal Yoked AND Light separated from Darkness Darkness and Blindness joyn'd together In Answer to a Paper that would joyn together Truth and Vntruth the true Worship and the false And here it is discovered and the Author thereof in part rewarded by joyning him justly to those he unjustly joyned others to By a Lover of Justice and Equity and Hater of the Contrary PETER PRICE Her Priests have violated my Law and have prophaned my holy things and have put no difference between the Holy and the Prophane neither have they shewed difference between the Vnclean and the Clean and have hid their Eyes from my Sabbaths and I am prophaned among them Ezek. 22.26 And as Troops of Robbers wait for a Man so the Company of Priests Murder in the way by consent for they commit Lewdness Hosea 6.9 London Printed and Sold by Andrew Sowle at the Crooked-Billet in Holloway-Lane in Shoreditch 1683. The Unequal unyoked and the Equal yoked c. THere came a Paper to my hands from a Bishop as I am credibly informed and I have strong Reasons to believe that it came from his hand or some of his Priestly Generation 1st Because the Comparisons came not from the Spirit of God but from a Darknist who is ignorant of the Truth of God that did not see the difference between us and his Father the Pope 2dly It is plainly seen that it came from a malicious Heart that would have a suffering peaceable People still to suffer and so doth joyn with the Oppressors to oppress the Oppressed and thus he saith That any man may see and discover how near Quakers and Papists are in Opinion let them read these following Comparisons of the one to the other 1. Quakers claim the Spirit to Infallibility so doth Pope and Papists Answ The Spirit of God is Infallible which we do own and possess and wouldst thou have us to deny the Spirit of God to be what we know it to be because Papists as thou sayst do own it so to be It is clearly seen that thou art a stranger to the Spirit of God who wouldst have it to be fallible and not only so but also any Enemy to it that would undervalue the unchangeable and infallible Spirit of God Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ he is none of his Rom. 4.9 and vers 11. He that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal Bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you and vers 15. But ye have received the Spirit of Adoption The People of God in all Ages had and now have the Spirit of God to be their Teacher Counsellor and Instructor in all things and it is given to every man to profit withal and if we cannot claim title to the Spirit of Infallibility what benefit may we expect from that which is given to fail to change or to alter But the fallible deceiveable Spirit doth enquire after large Livings great Wages and most Hire Benefit and worldly Riches to enjoy and this is an earthly worldly selfish greedy covetous Spirit which ever was and now is against the Spirit of God and all those that were and are led by it This is the Wolfs devouring Spirit that casteth to Prison and devoureth the goods of them that cannot feed it Behold the Devil shall cast some of you into Prison Rev. 2.10 2 Quakers make themselves the sole Church so Papists Answ Here we are falsly accused for we do not make our selves the sole Church for what we are is of the Lord and not of our selves and he hath made us Members of his Church and the Lord added to the Church daily such as should be saved Acts 2.47 The Church is the Body of Christ Col. 1.24 And we could not make our selves the Body of Christ the Body must be like the Head for by him they are redeemed out of the Sins which the World doth live in for they by Christ their Head are washed cleansed purified fitted and prepared for himself to dwell therein These and such as these are the Church of God 3. Quakers hold no Salvation but in their Meetings so do Papists but in their Communion Answ Here we are again falsly accused for we hold Salvation no where else but only in and through Jesus Christ the Son of the living everlasting God 4. Quakers are Recusants so Papists Answ How now Bishop and Priest I speak to them only that are guilty would you now make us Recusants because we cannot seed your greedy Bellies nor maintain you in your Pride and Covetousness we dare not feed that which Christ came to destroy the which would destroy Christ in his Members 5. Quakers deny Bishops to be jure divino so Papists witness the Council of Trent Answ We do deny you to be what you are not and we do own you to be what you are for we wrestle not against Flesh and Blood but against Princi●●lities against Powers against the Rulers of the Darkness of this World against spiritual Wickedness in high places as they did Ephes 6.12 Your jure divino is your spiritual Wickness in high places Come down exalted boasted Selfishness the everlasting Bishop we own and those that are called and chosen by him are also by him made divine and it is his right to oversee the Soul but you that covet after filthy Lucre we deny 6 Quakers are of rebellious Tenets so Papists Answ Let all People that are not defiled with Tythes judge who are most quarrelsom troublesom burdensom and whose Tenets are most Rebellious against all appearance of Godliness and who are bad Examples you or us As the high Priests did stir the Magistrates and People against Christ Jesus and his followers perswading the People that he did those mighty Works which he did through Belzebub that his Followers were movers of Sedition and turners of the World up-side down So likewise this man who is one in Enmity and Malice with his Predecessors the high-Priests hath falsly belyed us expecting thereby to stir Persecution against us so his envious Spirit is seen and judged 7. Quakers as they piece up the Word of God by wild Fancies pretended Revelations so Papists by Traditions Answ The Word of God thou knowest not which cannot be pieced broken changed or altered thou dost botter know how to compel the People to maintain thee whilst thou hast the Magistraies on thy side than to speak of things that are too high for the Nature thou art in but the Natural man parceiveth not the things of the Spirit of God for they are foolishness unto him neither can he know them for they are spiritually discerned 1 Cor. 2.14 8. Quakers are against Common-Prayer so Papists Answ Thou who art sensual it is that needest the Common-Prayer who hast not the Spirit of God to pray by which the holy men of God had to teach them to pray and to declare the things revealed to them by the
