A62893 The Muggletonians principles prevailing being an answer in full to a scandalous and malicious pamphlet, intituled A true representation of the absurd and mischevious principles of the sect called Muggletonians : herein the aforesaid principles are vindicated, and proved to be infallibly true : and the author of that libel, his scandalous title and subject proved as false to truth, as light is to darkness, and that he knows no more what the true God is, nor what the right devil is, nor any true principle or foundation of faith, for all his great learning he so much bosts of, then those Jews that put the Lord of life to death, for learned and taught reason is but natural, and so falls short of the glory of God, as will appear in the following discourse / by T.T. Tomkinson, Thomas, 1631-1710? 1695 (1695) Wing T1840; ESTC R18719 47,859 79

must_v be_v divide_v from_o the_o father_n and_o holyghost_n now_o this_o be_v certain_a that_o if_o there_o be_v a_o father_n distinct_a from_o that_o bless_a body_n of_o christ_n it_o must_v then_o be_v as_o john_n bidle_n say_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o john_n bidle_n as_o well_o as_o arius_n and_o s●sinus_n make_v he_o but_o man_n because_o they_o will_v have_v but_o one_o single_a
