rightly what I have written than the Books themselves I leave them to judge and do as they are and as such men lead them And how far Tradition or History or Humane aide and Testimony is necessary to our Reception of the Scripture I have long agoe opened at large in the Preface to the second Part of my Saints Rest and shewed you that Dr. Whitaker Chemnitius Davenant Rob. Baronius and other Protestants usually say the same that I do and that otherwise by casting away such subordinate means Proud-ignorance and pievish wrangling will cut the throat of faith it self and undermine the Church of God Reader I will conclude also with an Admonition as my Accuser doth As thou lovest Christianity Scripture and thy soul take heed of those Ignorant destroying-defenders of the Scripture who would tell the Infidel world that they may continue Infidels till we can prove that the Scripture alone by its own light without humane Testimony History or Tradition will bring it self to all mens hands without mans bringing it and will translate it self without mans translating it or in the original tongues will make all English men and all that cannot read at all to understand it or being translated will tell you sufficiently which is the true translation and where the Translater failed or will tell you among many hundred divers Readings which is the right and which Copy is the truest and which particular text is uncorrupted or rightly translated For instance whether it should be in Luke 17. 37. 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 or 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 when it is 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 in Matth. 24. 18. and Beza saith In uno exemplari apud Theophilactum Scriptum est 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 id est Cadaver sicut etiam in nonnullis codicibus testatur selegisse Erasmus Videturque haec lectio magis accomodata c. Hundreds of such may be named And believe not these men till they can name you one man that ever knew before some man told him by the Book alone whether Esther and the Canticles were Canonical and the Book of Wisdom and Pauls Epistle to the Laodioaeans Apocryphal and knew what was the sense of the Original Text and what Copies and Readings and Translations were true and what false Yea or that knew these particular Books were the same that the Apostles wrote without alteration till some one told it them Would not that man reduce the Church into less than one single person who would have no man believe the Scripture nor take it for Gods word till he can do it without any help of man or humane History or Testimony or Tradition But of this I put him twenty Questions before It shall now suffice to tell you this much of the plain truth that such furious false Teachers as shall take the foresaid course may not utterly subvert your faith The Scripture and Christian Religion taken together as one frame or Body hath that in it self which may prove that frame and all the essential parts of our Religion to be of God And the true proof of the Divine Authority of the Scripture is by the evidence of the spirit not a new Revelation of the spirit But by a double Impression of Gods own Image made by the Holy Ghost one upon the Scripture it self The other by the Scripture in its continued efficacy on Belivers souls And both these Images are the Impresses of the Trinity of Divine Principles even of the Power Wisdom and Goodness of God which are unimitably done in both This is the true proof that Scripture is the word of God But this proof excludeth not but supposeth the Ministry and Testimony of man as a subservient help and means even to bring it to us to translate it to teach us how to know both the sense and verity of it and to testifie which is the true Canon Copies Reading Translation c. And they are ignorant subverting deceivers and destroyers of your souls who would separate the Word the Spirit and the Ministry which Christ hath conjoyned as necessary together for your faith and that would cast out subservient helps as unnecessary under pretence of the sufficiency of the Scripture As if Printing it were needless because Scripture is sufficient of it self And the fore-said self-evidencing Light is not sufficient without humane help and Testimony to make you know every Canonical Book from the Apocryphal nor to know the truest Copies in the Original nor the rightest readings nor this or that particular verse to be uncorrupted nor the translation to be true nor this or that to be the true meaning of the Greek or Hebrew word nor that the Minister readeth truly to the unlearned that cannot try it by his own skill nor read himself And he that would make the contrary supposition to be the foundation of your faith would destroy your faith the Church and you Postscript REader since the Writing of this two things have faln out which make it a more displeasing work to me than it was before And I am sorry that Mr. Bagshaw made it necessary The one is that as the current report saith he is again in Prison for Refusing the Oath of Allegiance And I naturally abhorre to trample upon a suffering person which hath caused me to say so little against the Armies and Sectarian miscarriages since their dissolution and dejection in comparison of what I did before in the time of their prosperity The other is The Printing of the Life of Mr. Vavasor Powel which hath so many good things in it that I fear lest the mention of his false Prophecies extorted by Mr. Bagshaw who first published also his name as the Author of them should abate their exemplary use But yet I must give this notice to forreigners and posterity that they must not judge either of the JUDGEMENT or the SUFFERINGS of the Non-conformists by these mens It is not for refusing the Oath of Allegiance that they are silenced and suffer as they do nor do they consent to the words which conclude the life of Mr. Powel That since such a time he hath learnt that we must pray for our present Rulers as sinners but not as Magistrates No man can truly say that such Doctrines as these have been proved against any considerable part of the Ministers that are now cast out or that they were deposed and silenced for such things seeing they commonly take the Oathes of Allegiance and Supremacy And how far the ejected Ministers of Scotland are from the Principles of Separation Mr. Browne a Learned Scottish Divine hath shewed in the Preface of a Learned Treatise Newly Published in Latine against Wolzogius and Velthusius even while he saith most against receding from a Reformation overthrowing the Tenents maintained by our two or three English Brownes which formerly were called Brownisme Though the same mans numerous reasonings against the derivation of the Magistrates Office from the Power of the Mediator I waite
thus he did which is mentioned as no rarity should you not rather take part with God than him And if an Aaron will make the people naked to their shame will not God record it to his shame Is not the honour of the Spirit of God more tenderly to be preserved than his or yours or mine or any mans O do not injure God for Man Sect. 27. E. B. p. 8. But 1. May not a good man yea a true Prophet be sometime mistaken Was not Samuel so when he took Eliab to be the Lords anointed Was not Nathan deceived when he encouraged David to build the Temple R. B. 1. Yes they may be deceived when they speak in their own names and judge by their own Spirit or reason But do you think they may be deceived when they prophesie as from God If so then what certainty can we have of the truth of any of their Prophecies if they may speak falsly to us in the name of God 2. Will not your followers think you yet see your partiality who in one Page reproach others as denying Scripture to be a perfect Rule and in another can thus seek to parallel Gods Prophets with one that rashly in the Pulpit prophesieth three falshoods together in the name of God Is it not Gods direction to us to take him for a false Prophet who prophesieth that which cometh not to pass Every one that foretelleth that which doth come to pass is not a true Prophet Deut. 13. 23. But every one that absolutely prophesieth that which doth not come to pass is a false Prophet Deut. 18. 20 21 22. But the Prophet which shall presume to speak a word in my name which I have not commanded him to speak even that Prophet shall dye Mark whether God do judge as you do And if thou say in thy heart how shall we know the word which the Lord hath spoken when a Prophet speaketh in the name of the Lord if the thing follow not nor come to pass that is the thing which the Lord hath not spoken but the Prophet hath spoken it presumptuously thou shalt not be afraid of him Sect. 28. E. B. 2. May not many Prophets truly foretell things to come and yet those things be a long time suspended and delayed because of the sins of the people Is not this condition to be understood in most Scripture Prophecies expressed Zach. 6. 15. And this shall come to pass if you will diligently obey c. R. B. 1. A Conditional promise or prediction may be not only delayed but never fulfilled so as that the thing shall not come to pass if the condition never come to pass 2. Promises are oftner to be expounded as Conditional than peremptory Prophecies when no condition is expressed But what words can more exclude both Conditions and Delayes than I tell you from God that you shall never more c. When 1. They never ceased paying Tythes from that day to this 2. And their Taxes were then upon them and I think they believe not that they never paid more 3. And that we have a King his Subjects all acknowledge Indeed the Jews say that the promise of the Messiah is delayed because of their sins and by such pretences what true Prophecy may not be perverted and false excused As for what you say of Mr. Powels Religiousness diligence and worthiness I never said a word against it And I desire to promote and not to cloud the true honour of his name And your calling that an unchristian calumny which you cannot deny to be a proved truth is but an unmanly calumny of your own And for your Prophecy of my memory dying before me I am not solicitous of the matter let God do with my memory what he please nor am I regardful of your Prophecy who defend false prophecying being commanded not to fear such Deut. 18. 22. Sect. 29. E. B. The pride of your heart discovered by your writings is so apparent that it cannot but be known and read of all men to go no further for instances than your last Books what needed you have told the world in print that you chase once on Easter day to communicate in a very populous Church purposely that it might be the further known Is not this like the Hypocrites to blow a Trumpet before and to do your actions that they may be seen of men What other end could you have in doing that so publickly then or in declaring it now but a vain glorious hope that doubting and unsatisfied Christians might look upon your example as their Pole-star and accordingly direct their course R. B. 1. As to the Pride of my heart I shall first say this in general that I am past doubt I have too much of it As no man is wholly cured of that odious vice so I am one that have no cause to say that I am perfect But these things I can confidently say 1. That so far as I am proud I sin as much against my own judgement I imagine as most men alive do there being sew that ever I was acquainted with that have said and written more against it than I have done I have had these thirty years and more more odious conceptions of that sin and a deeper sense of its commonness and prevalency in the world and the wofull ruines which it makes in the Church and State and souls and how frequently it sheweth it self even in men of great piety and worth than of almost any other sin I have had so many thousand thoughts and words against it as make me much more culpable if I be proud 2. And I shall sin as much against my Conscience in being proud as most men in the world As my Judgement is so much against the sin so my Conscience commandeth me a very Low and Constant self-abasement It telleth me that whether I look to a corruptible painfull flesh or to an Ignorant understanding or to a sinful will or to a sinful and unprofitable life I have so little to be proud of as will render my pride exceeding odious 3. I do evidently see the odiousness of this sin in others Were it not for seeming to retort your charge I should say that though I cannot as you do conclude of the heart yet the usual Ensigns of Pride with Temerity and Injudiciousness Boldness and Blindness do appear to me so monstrous in your Writings above the size that ordinary sinners ever fall to as maketh me the more apprehend how dreadful it is to give way to pride in the beginnings And methinks I see as written on the front of your Writings Be not high-minded but fear Therefore I am still the more culpable if I abound with that which is so terrible a warning to me in your self and other such as you 4. And as I every day watch and pray against it and if ever I knew any thing of my self in the world I am certain that I live in an
of a holy life 5. That Brother Browne instructed me in the fifth Monarchy principle whereas he then opposed it Answ I said Mr. Browne and others were her Instructers who were very zealous for the way called the fifth Monarchy and having instructed her in those opinions c. If I did mistake here I recant my errour But I will tell you my grounds 1. That the others were of that opinion as they deny not so I have heard no others deny 2. At the publishing of that Book same spake the same of Mr. Browne and of his companion 3. The Book doth plead for that opinion 4. His Epistle is before the Book as a Publishing applause of it 5. He professeth that opinion to this day And all these appearances might induce such a judgement of him But if he took it up between the Action and the publication of the Book on what day or week it is none of my business to declare He better knoweth those himself 6. That I imposed abstinence upon my self as to meat when I would gladly have eaten but durst not because I apprehended I had no right to the Creature being out of Christ This is all false and untrue and I am astonished that Mr. Baxter should with so much confidence affirm these things Answ 1. The good Woman understandeth not that she contradicteth her self She did not impose abstinence on her self but she durst not eat for the reason here given that is She did not impose abstinence on her self but she did impose it for fear upon this reason These untruths and nonsence in a Woman are more excusable than in her Teachers Why doth She render a Reason why She durst not eat if by that fear and for that reason she did not impose abstinence on her self Did any other impose it or shut her mouth Is not that our own doing which we give a reason of and say that we did it through fear Doth not he that giveth a Thief his Purse consent himself to it and make it his own act to save his life If she knew not what she did why is she angry for being thought Melancholy which is many a Godly persons case If she did know why doth she falsly call it an untruth that she imposed it on her self By this taste you may see that even in well-meaning people the same principles will oft have the same practices when here are five untruths in this short Letter and four at least of her accusation of my words are visible untruths But I would know of Mr. E. B. or her whether it be true doctrine that one out of Christ should not eat because they have no right and whether almost to consume her self with Famine was well done If so must all wicked men do so If it be false doctrine as undoubtedly it is I further ask whether it was the spirit of God or Satan that was the Author of it I hope she dare not father sin and falshood on Gods Spirit And if it was a Temptation of Satan as it was I ask whether to yield so far to a Temptation so much against the light of Scripture nature and self-preservation in a case so plain that common people know the errour of it and to proceed so long almost to famishment in that errour and sin I say whether this shewed not some flaw at that time in natural understanding and reasoning as well as in grace If it did as sure it did what could it be less than Melancholy And I hope it was never the mind of Mr. Jordan or Mr. Browne in that Book to father this opinion or practice on Gods spirit I doubt not but God thus oft tryeth his own but it is as little doubt but that he oft leaveth them under Melancholy as the Tempters opportunity and advantage And its pitty that poor souls should be angry with those that know their case better than they themselves and truly pitty them Sect. 81. R. B. I come now to Mr. Brownes Letter wherein I will not reckon it as it is with his untruths that my two last Treatises give great occasion to the Adversaries of Truth and Purity to reproach and Blaspheme God and his people For the man speaketh as his ill cause and principles have made him think And that this is no more than some of my Disciples have suggested to him whether it be true or false I know not What men that I have been eleven years driven from may be drawn to by cruelties on the one hand and seducers on the other I can give no account of at this distance Let them answer for themselves The first untruth I charge him with is that I have uttered many falshoods of himself and others The case is anon to be tryed Sect. 82. Mr. Browne P. 27. How the present Conformists can be excused from some degree of Idolatry remains to be better proved R. B. An answer to what I said had been more congruous than this put-off And that you take it for no Railing to call almost all Christs Churches on Earth even the Reformed Idolatrous and yet take it for railing to be told that you so accuse them ignorantly rashly and self-conceitedly doth but shew the blinding power of selfishness and dividing principles when there is so vast a disparity 1. In the matter of the charge 2. And in the persons charged That your Brother Bagshaw liath as you call it now deceived your expectation and wronged his cause that is hath been fain to leave his untruths unjustified I suppose you cannot deny in consistence with your own expressions Sect. 83. Mr. Browne p. 28. Indeed sir in two lines there are no less than two Vntruths published to the world concerning me The first is that I am the Author and Publisher of that Book which is affirmed by him against the most notorious evidence in the World to the contrary The Author Mr. Timothy Jordain and all that I did was being desired to write an Epistle wherein I acquaint the Reader that I am not the Author of it but only did joyne in Testimony to signifie what was recorded in the ensuing Treatise was true R. B. Reader wouldst thou think it possible for a man that voluminously accuseth the Churches and chargeth them with Idolatry and had read my detection of his Brothers Untruths to face men down with such words as these that I say that which I never said I have many times over read my own words and I can find no syllable of what he saith that I affirm him to be the Author of that Book I only said the Publisher and he addeth the Author as may presently by the Readers eye-sight be convicted I say Published by Mr. Browne as is uncountroledly affirmed And is not this also a rash and careless man that no better heedeth what he readeth and what he writeth And doth he not here declare himself a Publisher of it when he confesseth he put an Epistle to it
to joyne in Testimony that what was recorded was true And is this Printed Epistle and Testimony no Publication Sect. 84. Mr. Bowne The second untruth is that I am uncontrolledly affirmed so to be when I believe he had never a second in the world that either will or can affirm it R. B. Here are two more falshoods 1. That it is an Vntruth that I said of him 2. That I said it was uncontrolledly affirmed that he was the Author But that he was a Publisher you have now his own Confession of his Epistle which I had read and Mr. Joseph Baker gave me the Book and told me it was published by Mr. Jordain and Mr. Browne and this report I oft after heard and it never was controlled to me which is all that I can reasonably mean my uncontrolled For how is it possible for me to know what is said of him to all others in every distant place and corner Sect. 85. Mr. Browne As for the Book it self and the matter of fact contained in it I never yet met with any judicious sober Christian that had seriously perused it who durst adventure to pronounce either of the whole or any considerable part of it that it was an effect of Melancholy R. B. Who talkt of the whole But what part you will call considerable who knows Is not this a concession that some part is so judged of And must your Ignorance of such matters as Melancholly have so great influence into your Divinity But you may say true For most now adayes converse with few but those of their own mind And the Book is not to be got in any shop that I can hear of Sect. 86. Mr. Browne Whether this decrying of experiences this slighting the work of Gods spirit in the soul the crying out that these things are but the effects of Melancholy be not the ready way to make all supernatural Conversion derided and the whole mysterie of Godliness contemned consider R. B. 1. Here is implyed a fourth Untruth that I decry experiences and the rest here mentioned 2. Alas must the poor Church of Christ have such miserable Guides that build hay and stubble and think if it be burnt the Church must fall I tell you sir such rash and Ignorant Teachers as your Writings shew you to be are the men that do so much towards the very same effects which you seem to fear even to tempt men to deride all supernatural conversion as that I scarce know a more powerful way If you heard one man say Satan as an Angel of Light stirred up the Quakers to pretend Miracles Prophesies and spiritual raptures purposely to tempt the World to Infidelity by perswading them that the Spirit in the Prophets and Apostles was but the like And if you heard James Naylor say Your calling the Spirit in us a vain Imagination or deceit is the way to perswade men that the spirit in the Prophets and Apostles was but imagination and deceit Which of these two sayings would you believe I take the case which I spake of to be the like I tell you still that all the Truth and Goodness that your Book mentioneth truly was wrought by the spirit of God But if men will make the world believe that any false doctrine or any sin or any false exposition of Scripture is of the spirit or that their unproved Impulses which are not agreeable to the word but are against it or besides it must be believed to be of God and will describe these as Experiences and Gods way of Converting souls their Ignorance will as effectually serve the Devil to bring true Conversion and the spirit into scorn as the derisions of a Drunkard will do if not more It is no new thing for Satan to deceive as an Angel of light and his Ministers as Ministers of Righteousness And if you know not his wiles expect not that we should all concur with you in exposing spirituality and holiness to the scorn of such as now abhorr it or as of late have taken such advantages against those that are better than themselves Sect. 87. R. B. Whether you instructed her in those principles you know best If you deny it I retract it That you were very zealous in them is past doubt but just the day when you began whether before that Book was begun or before it was finished or when I leave to your own report Sect. 88. Mr. Browne Indeed it is now my Opinion that there is a glorious state of the Church yet to come before the last end of all things when all Oppression and Oppressours shall cease and every thing of man shall be laid down in subserviency to the Interest of Christ and the Kingdom of the World shall become his R. B. Amen! It is my earnest Desire as well as yours But Desire and Belief are not all one The Prophesies that you suppose foretell all this I thought I almost understood thirty two years agoe but since I perceive I did not But I contradict not that which I do not understand nor never did Who will plead for Oppression And what Christian desireth not the greatest Holiness and Righteousness in the World I freely confess my Ignorance in the point whether on this side the general Resurrection there shall be so perfect and universal Righteousness as you describe as that All Oppression shall cease My greatest Hope is in the three Petitions of the Lords Prayer Thy Name be Hallowed Thy Kingdom Come Thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven And I am sure this will warrant my desires And I the better like those Opinions of a perfect age because Hope will set men upon praying for it But as I detest all Rebellions against just Authority on pretence that they are not truly Godly and all setting up mens selves on pretence of setting up Christ and using unlawful means on pretence of good ends so I am afraid of being tempted down from the Heavenly Hopes and Comforts by looking for more on earth than is indeed to be expected Sect. 89. Mr. Browne p. 29. He tells us first that she was suddenly moved to come to hear him Preach R. B. A meer untruth as I have before shewed I said not so Sect. 90. Mr. Browne That she had such convictions from his Sermon for so he seems to intimate c. R. B. Untrue again as is before shewed Nor will your seeming salve it Sect. 91. Mr. Browne That she desired to speak with him is another untruth R. B. Of that I shall speak anon Sect. 92. Mr. Browne That she did impose on her self abstinence from meat R. R. Here he contradicts himself as she did and saith she durst not eat and yet falsly chargeth me with untruth for saying the same sence Sect. 93. Mr. Browne Lastly She never fell in so among the Quakers as to be one of them though it is true that through the power of Temptations she was somewhat
