A54015	A modest detection of George Keith's (miscalled) Just vindication of his earnest expostulation published by him as a pretended answer to a late book of mine, entituled, Some brief observations, &c. By E.P.	Penington, Edward, 1667-1701.	1696 (1696)	Wing P1144; ESTC R220367	34,038	60

us from having any share therein as plainly appears from the place referred to though not named by G. Keith viz. A Serious Apology p. 148. Wherein W. Penn reciting an Objection of one Tho. Jenner viz. That we deny Justification by the Righteousness which Christ hath fulfilled in his own Person for us WHOLLY without us and therefore deny the Lord that bought us He Answers And indeed this we deny c. Now mark the stress of his denial lies upon his Antagonist's Word WHOLLY whereupon W. Penn argues thus No Man can be Justified without Faith says Jenner No Man hath Faith without Works any more than a Body without a Spirit says James Therefore the Works of Righteousness by the Spirit of Christ Jesus are necessary to Justification Observe he doth not say the Works of the Spirit are only necessary thereby excluding the Righteousness which Christ fulfilled in his own Person without us but joins them together the Works wrought without us and the Works wrought within us and calls that Doctrine which would divide them and Attribute all wholly to the outward A Doctrine of Devils which to manifest the more clearly and thereby the more fully to detect G. Keith's Injustice and Falshood I shall give the Reader another Quotation out of the very next Page of the same Book where explaining our Faith concerning the Father Son and Holy Spirit in that part relating to the Son he saith Who took upon him Flesh and was in the World and in Life Doctrine Miracles Death Resurrection Ascension and Mediation perfectly did and does continue to do the Will of God to whose Holy Life Power Mediation and Blood we only ascribe our Sanctification JUSTIFICATION Redemption and perfect Salvation But besides G. Keith his abusing and misrepresenting W. Penn in the above-mentioned Passage I have another Remark to make upon him and that is That the very same Doctrine which W. Penn in his aforenamed Serious Apology called a Doctrine of Devils in T. Jenner G. Keith in his Postscript to the Nature of Christianity calls corrupt Doctrine in R. Gordon see p. 70. of the said Book The Title of that Part is Some of Robert Gordon 's corrupt Doctrines and p. 71. the eighth Head is That Redemption Justification were finished and compleated in the Crucified Body in Christ for us not in our Persons And the twelfth Head viz. That Redemption c. and all things are wrought purchased c. for us without the help of any thing to be wrought in us Now if these are corrupt Doctrines with G. Keith now which were so it seems with him in 1671. the Time of the Date of that Book is he not insincere in a high Degree in quarrelling with W. Penn for opposing the very same Doctrine in the very same Year his Serious Apology being likewise Printed in 1671. And on the other Hand if these Doctrines be not corrupt according to his Opinion and Judgment at this Time then doth he give himself the lye in this very Paper of his now before me p. 4 and 5. wherein he expresseth himself thus But whereas they upbraid me again and again with contradicting my former Doctrines and Principles as to Articles of Faith I cannot find that they have proved it against me in one Particular Of which more anon Well to conclude this Matter I shall tell him yet farther that I know not of any Quakers who do not ascribe Remission of Sins to that one Offering upon the Cross through Faith in the Name of Jesus Christ but if I understand any thing of the Quakers Principles as I think I do that is one of them and to prove that I speak not by Rote I will produce another Author approved amongst them viz. my Father Isaac Penington to confirm what I say as the Reader may see in his Treatise Entituled The Flesh and Blood of Christ c. p. 16. and of his Works Part 2. p. 186. It was a spotless Sacrifice of great Value and Effectual for the Remission of Sins And I do acknowledge humbly unto the Lord THE REMISSION OF MY SINS THEREBY and bless the Lord for it even for giving up his Son to Death for us all and giving all that believe in his Name and Power to partake of Remission through him In my Brief Observations p. 8. I produced a Proof out of A brief Narrative of the second Meeting c of his Self-contradiction in then saying The whole Protestant cause lieth at stake in the Defence whereof we with all true Protestants are concerned against the Jesuites and Baptists And yet in his Expostulation We promote vile Errours worse than the worst of Popery This he shuffles off saying p. 4. In vain are all his shuffling Aggravations against me upbraiding me with my being changed in my Opinion of what these Quakers were and a little lower I own it they deceived me they were the Deceivers and I was the Deceived Answ Any intelligent Reader may perceive it was Principles and not Persons he vindicated the Cause not Parties he then espoused therefore this is only a Sophistical turn to serve a turn and his Pretences to knowing them better only a false gloss that he may abuse them the worse and the Cause of their Changing their Opinion of him is his changing Sides and now taking up the Baptists old Arguments against his quondam Friends which he once assisted them in Baffling and now wou'd insinuate a mistake in the Men and not in the Principles to hold up his Credit of not being changed whereas the Men are the same their Principles the same now he opposes them as they were when he Vindicated them and he is the Man that is Changed Deviated Apostatized and therefore an ill Man which hath been over and over proved upon him and not disproved by him any other way than by a bare denial without Demonstration and so any farther Proof at present needless Yet to shew the Reader his former Judgment of our Principles both as Consonant with Scripture and also with those of the first Reformers so far as theirs agreed with Scripture I shall add a Quotation out of Help in Time of Need p. 46. viz. And now ye who accuse us in Derision called Quakers by you as Apostates and that we have denied our Fore-fathers Faith try your selves and Paralel your Fathers Principles and Practices with your own and also with ours and ye shall find ye are degenerated from them exceedingly as we were while with you but through the Grace of God are we recovered and brought to witness the Spirit and Life of the Primitive Protestants and Christians and ye cannot Instance to us one Particular wherein we Dissent from them warranted from the very Letter of the Scripture The Second Head viz. His Reflections upon the Protestant Clergy as more Lukewarm if they oppose not the Quakers here than the Popish Clergy at Rome would be in such a case He saith Hath nothing in it worth noticing but their
