A56305	The church of Christ in Bristol recovering her vail out of the hands of them that have smitten and wounded her, and taken it away. Being, a just and necessary vindication, from a false and scandalous imputation cast upon her by Dennis Hollister, formerly a member of her, but now an apostate from, and an opposer of those waies, truths, and people, which once he seemed zealous for. As appears by a late pamphlet put forth by him, called, The skirts of the whore discovered. With some particular words, from some particular persons whom he hath by name abused and reproached. Likewise a word by Thomas Ewen, unto what concerns him in the said pamphlet, and also to the later part of another book, called, Satan enthroned in his chair of pestilence.

ask_v your_o conscience_n this_o question_n do_v you_o not_o publish_v and_o set_v forth_o this_o thing_n to_o wit_n of_o my_o not_o be_v a_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n etc._n etc._n to_o lay_v i_o if_o you_o can_v under_o contempt_n and_o scorn_n both_o in_o the_o city_n and_o nation_n though_o you_o know_v in_o what_o sense_n and_o upon_o what_o ground_n i_o have_v deny_v the_o title_n and_o dignity_n of_o a_o minister_n as_o i_o have_v before_o declare_v but_o you_o know_v that_o this_o be_v a_o nail_n that_o will_v go_v and_o therefore_o you_o strick_v here_o and_o be_v not_o this_o such_o another_o piece_n of_o envy_n and_o hypocrisy_n as_o poor_a mris._n prince_n do_v manifest_a when_o she_o come_v to_o rail_v at_o i_o and_o reproach_v i_o at_o my_o lecture_n at_o nicholas_n when_o in_o her_o conscience_n she_o dare_v not_o object_n against_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v deliver_v though_o it_o be_v often_o put_v to_o she_o by_o i_o but_o instead_o thereof_o after_o much_o bitter_a revile_n against_o i_o call_v to_o the_o people_n and_o bid_v they_o to_o beware_v of_o i_o for_o she_o have_v hear_v i_o say_v i_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n etc._n etc._n now_o suppose_v this_o have_v be_v true_a that_o i_o have_v at_o any_o time_n utter_v my_o complaint_n to_o she_o or_o any_o other_o in_o the_o sadness_n and_o bitterness_n of_o my_o soul_n when_o under_o temptation_n as_o the_o lord_n know_v what_o sad_a hour_n and_o dark_a day_n i_o have_v pass_v through_o since_o i_o come_v to_o bristol_n though_o you_o and_o many_o other_o little_a observe_v it_o or_o inquire_v after_o it_o but_o suppose_v i_o say_v i_o have_v utter_v my_o complaint_n to_o she_o as_o she_o and_o many_o other_o have_v do_v to_o i_o be_v it_o a_o christian-like_a part_n in_o she_o to_o publish_v this_o in_o the_o face_n of_o a_o congregation_n many_o of_o which_o may_v be_v apt_a enough_o to_o take_v up_o a_o prejudice_n against_o i_o etc._n etc._n will_v you_o or_o she_o or_o any_o other_o think_v it_o either_o honesty_n christianity_n ingenuity_n civility_n or_o humanity_n in_o i_o if_o i_o shall_v publish_v to_o the_o world_n what_o you_o or_o she_o or_o they_o have_v at_o any_o time_n utter_v to_o i_o as_o a_o matter_n of_o grief_n burden_n trouble_n sadness_n affliction_n or_o temptation_n that_o lie_v upon_o your_o or_o their_o spirit_n now_o both_o you_o and_o she_o also_o know_v full_a well_o the_o sad_a complaint_n of_o my_o soul_n under_o the_o sense_n of_o my_o own_o weakness_n the_o fore_n and_o terrible_a temptation_n that_o i_o encounter_v with_o the_o greatness_n and_o weightiness_n of_o my_o work_n the_o many_o eye_n that_o be_v upon_o i_o and_o the_o great_a dishonour_n that_o will_v have_v come_v to_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n if_o i_o shall_v have_v miscarry_v in_o my_o work_n which_o make_v i_o to_o see_v the_o necessity_n and_o prize_v the_o excellency_n and_o long_a for_o the_o supply_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n and_o often_o to_o complain_v of_o that_o small_a measure_n i_o apprehend_v i_o have_v of_o it_o etc._n etc._n but_o second_o both_o you_o and_o she_o and_o some_o other_o know_v in_o your_o conscience_n that_o there_o be_v another_o ground_n upon_o which_o and_o another_o sense_n in_o which_o i_o have_v sometime_o question_v whether_o i_o and_o many_o other_o christian_n have_v yet_o receive_v the_o spirit_n which_o for_o the_o reader_n information_n end_v my_o own_o vindication_n i_o shall_v now_o declare_v when_o i_o live_v in_o london_n and_o sit_v under_o the_o ministry_n of_o some_o choice_n

godly_a man_n i_o do_v sometime_o hear_v expression_n to_o this_o effect_n that_o there_o be_v a_o twofold_a come_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n into_o the_o heart_n of_o believer_n the_o first_o be_v that_o by_o which_o the_o eye_n of_o man_n understanding_n be_v open_v and_o they_o turn_v from_o darkness_n to_o light_n faith_n and_o repentance_n wrought_v in_o the_o soul_n conversion_n regeneration_n or_o the_o new_a birth_n effect_v and_o so_o he_o that_o be_v once_o a_o dead_a sinner_n become_v a_o live_a saint_n or_o believer_n though_o as_o yet_o but_o weak_a a_o babe_n in_o christ_n etc._n etc._n the_o second_o work_n or_o come_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v that_o by_o which_o the_o soul_n be_v seal_v confirm_v establish_a fill_v with_o joy_n and_o peace_n in_o believe_v and_o fit_v and_o furnish_v to_o every_o good_a work_n that_o god_n call_v they_o whether_o do_v or_o suffer_v etc._n etc._n now_o this_o put_v i_o upon_o the_o search_n of_o the_o scripture_n as_o first_o ephes_n 1._o 13._o after_o you_o believe_v you_o be_v seal_v which_o scripture_n relate_v to_o that_o act_n 19_o 2._o have_v you_o receive_v the_o holy_a spirit_n since_o you_o believe_v etc._n etc._n so_o act_v 8._o 14._o to_o 17._o samaria_n have_v receive_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o believe_v in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v baptize_v by_o philip_n the_o deacon_n the_o church_n at_o jerusalem_n or_o rather_o the_o apostle_n send_v forth_o peter_n and_o john_n that_o they_o shall_v pray_v that_o they_o may_v receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o as_o yet_o he_o be_v not_o fall_v upon_o any_o of_o they_o etc._n etc._n another_o scripture_n i_o find_v joh._n 7._o 37_o 38_o 39_o in_o the_o last_o day_n the_o great_a day_n of_o the_o feast_n jesus_n stand_v and_o cry_v say_v if_o any_o man_n thirst_n let_v he_o come_v unto_o i_o and_o drink_n he_o that_o believe_v on_o i_o as_o the_o scripture_n have_v say_v out_o of_o his_o belly_n shall_v flow_v river_n of_o live_a water_n but_o this_o speak_v he_o of_o the_o spirit_n which_o they_o that_o believe_v on_o he_o shall_v receive_v for_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v not_o yet_o give_v because_o that_o jesus_n be_v not_o yet_o glorify_v so_o luke_n 11._o 9_o to_o 13._o such_o as_o god_n be_v a_o father_n unto_o be_v bid_v to_o pray_v to_o ask_v to_o seek_v and_o to_o knock_v etc._n etc._n with_o assurance_n by_o many_o argument_n that_o they_o shall_v receive_v the_o holy_a spirit_n so_o in_o the_o 14_o 15_o 16_o chapter_n of_o john_n our_o saviour_n speak_v to_o such_o as_o do_v believe_v in_o he_o love_v he_o and_o keep_v his_o commandment_n etc._n etc._n he_o promise_v to_o send_v the_o comforter_n unto_o they_o even_o the_o holy_a spirit_n which_o the_o world_n can_v not_o receive_v &c_n &c_n and_o to_o this_o agree_v many_o of_o the_o prophecy_n both_o in_o isa_n jer._n ezek._n joel_n zach._n and_o other_o now_o then_o as_o to_o the_o first_o work_n or_o come_n of_o the_o spirit_n namely_o to_o make_v a_o man_n to_o become_v a_o saint_n a_o christian_a a_o believer_n a_o new_a creature_n etc._n etc._n i_o never_o deny_v but_o always_o affirm_v that_o whosoever_o do_v believe_v in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n or_o have_v the_o least_o beginning_n of_o a_o work_n of_o grace_n in_o their_o soul_n it_o be_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o they_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o first_o sense_n according_a to_o rom._n 8._o 9_o now_o if_o any_o man_n have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n he_o be_v none_o of_o he_o etc._n etc._n but_o in_o the_o second_o or_o latter_a sense_n namely_o to_o seal_v establish_v fill_v with_o joy_n and_o comfort_n etc._n etc._n with_o many_o other_o glorious_a effect_n which_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o and_o which_o the_o saint_n in_o the_o primative_a time_n do_v enjoy_v in_o this_o sense_n i_o have_v often_o say_v that_o i_o do_v question_n whether_o i_o then_o have_v or_o whether_o many_o other_o in_o the_o church_n have_v receive_v the_o spirit_n and_o to_o this_o you_o do_v then_o assent_n etc._n etc._n and_o therefore_o i_o do_v often_o press_v it_o in_o the_o church_n that_o we_o may_v pray_v more_o for_o that_o bless_a spirit_n according_a to_o the_o command_n and_o promise_v of_o christ_n luke_n 11._o 9_o 13._o as_o before_o and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o i_o have_v often_o call_v the_o great_a legacy_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o as_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o great_a promise_n of_o the_o first_o or_o old_a testament_n so_o this_o bless_a spirit_n be_v the_o great_a promise_n of_o the_o second_o or_o new_a testament_n which_o all_o believer_n be_v to_o wait_v pray_v and_o long_o for_o as_o the_o believer_n under_o the_o first_o testament_n be_v to_o wait_v and_o long_o for_o the_o messiah_n and_o this_o be_v my_o meaning_n when_o i_o have_v sometime_o say_v that_o a_o man_n may_v be_v a_o christian_n a_o believer_n a_o convert_a soul_n or_o a_o babe_n in_o christ_n and_o not_o as_o yet_o have_v receive_v the_o spirit_n i_o mean_v still_o in_o this_o latter_a sense_n in_o respect_n of_o seal_v establish_v etc._n etc._n yet_o i_o neither_o do_v nor_o do_v expect_v the_o gift_n of_o tongue_n or_o work_a miracle_n etc._n etc._n neither_o do_v i_o find_v that_o the_o great_a promise_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v principal_o to_o that_o end_n though_o that_o be_v accomplish_v by_o it_o when_o and_o how_o the_o lord_n please_v as_o heb._n 2._o 4._o with_o divers_a miracle_n and_o gift_n or_o distribution_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n according_a to_o his_o own_o will_n but_o i_o find_v rather_o that_o the_o great_a promise_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v for_o such_o glorious_a end_n as_o these_o etc._n etc._n 1._o to_o open_v and_o reveal_v the_o hide_a
