A86674	A true testimony of the zeal of Oxford-professors and university-men who for zeal persecute the servants of the living God, following the example of their brethren of Cambridge. Also the leudness of those two great mothers discovered, who have brought forth so many children, and never had a husband. With a few words to magistrates that persecute the saints, calling them vagabonds; to shew them who are the vagabonds, and to take off their heat who are so much troubled, that they want the honour of a hat. Richard Hubberthorne.	Hubberthorn, Richard, 1628-1662.	1654 (1654)	Wing H3240; Thomason E806_8; ESTC R207175	10,969	17

you up who be in the many languages and to you all this is the word of the Lord which doth indure for ever and who are redeemed are redeemed forth of the many languages and is come before Babel was And the children which came from the Mother told us that sprinkling Infants was the baptism and the Steeple-house the Church of a Sacrament which there i● no such Scripture And so again here with the light that Christ Jesus Christ hath enlightned us withal we see they taught us more lyes and so with the light they are to be condemned as I said unto you before for the light that gave forth the Scriptures saith the Church is in God and with the Spirit they were baptized all into one body and was made to drink all into one Spirit with the light we do see and witness this praised be God which hath separated us from this lying generation which holds up these Mothers and their Sons which be teachers of lyes And they did tell us these Children that come from their Mothers that they were the Ministers of God and his Prophets and his Messengers Now with the light that comes from Christ we do them all see to be such as be out of the truth and such as the Lord sent Micah to cry against that are hirelings they that do not put into their mouths they prepare war against them they that do to them they preach peace and boast and say Is not the Lord amongst us none evil can come unto us Who be in the evil and transgression with the light that comes from Christ comprehended they are with which light the Prophets that saw Christ witnessed against such with the same light which lighr we witness made manifest which never changes with which light all deceiters deceits are comprehended and with the light we do see them that come from their Mothers to be such as seek for their gain from their quarter as beareth rule by their means as seeketh for the fleece which the Lord sent his Prophets to cry against which were in the light with which light they saw Christ which Christ hath enlightned us with with which light we see the same as the Prophets did which was witnesses of Christ with the light And so here we do see them to be the deceivers who go into the world who useth their tongues and saith the Lord saith when he never spake to them and speaketh a divination of their own brain and follow their own spirits which are the dreamers with the light they are all seen which never changes and with it which is eternal comprehended and to you this is the eternal word of God And those Sons that came from their Mothers told us they were Christs Embassadors with the light which comes from Christ which Christ hath enlightned us withal we do see them to be holding up the figures in the first Covenant their mothers to be lyers and they no Embassadors of Christ which takes Tythes of the people and if they will not give it them who witnesseth the unchangeable Priest Christ Jesus and deny the changeable they sue them at the Law and cause them to be haled before Magistrates Courts Sessions and put them in prison because they will not pay them Tythes Here you are declared to the whole Nation to be lyers and no Embassadours of Jesus Christ for whom he sent forth he sent forth freely denied all oppression Here with the Scripture it self you are all judged to be out of the practice of them that he sent forth And you that take Tythes of the people and bring the Scripture for your rule as they that received Tythes in old time which had a store-house to put it in and them that did not bring their Tythes and fill it they robbed God as said Malachi And the Priests which received the Tythes the strangers the fatherless and the widows were to come within the Priests gate and he was to minister forth to the strangers the fatherless and the widows that there might be no begger in Israel Now to you who receive Tythes I speak who are neither Ministers of the Gospel nor Ministers of the first Covenant but Juglers as you call it you are made manifest to all who be in the light Now if you say Give Caesar his due which are hypocrites and bring that for your cloak for to hold up the figure the first Priesthood that cloak will not you cover but your nakedness and whoredom from the Lord is seen with the light which are all to be condemned from the first Covenant and the second both who are found in the truth in neither For the first Priesthood who had a Store-house into which the Tythes were received which the Priests ministred forth to the strangers widows and fatherless a figure of the unchangeable Priest Christ Jesus who ministers out of the everlasting treasure And whiles the first Priesthood was standing Store-house and Tythes was preached up it was before Christ Jesus was preached up and his resurrection And when Christ Jesus was preached up the unchangeable Priesthood over the houshold of God then the unchangeable was confessed with them and the changeable Priesthood Store-house and Tythes was denied disannulled and of no effect Which the deceivers of the world these mothers and sons for their own ends bring up Tythes again and say they are Ministers of Christ But with the light which comes from Christ we do see who they are and what they are that have told us these lyes So with the light they are to be condemned and their mothers and their children and their proselytes that they have begotten to the light in all your consciences which shall wi●ness me eternally I speak and you all condemn that hate it and hold up such things And to you this is the Word of God that you might see yourselves what you are And they have told us which came from their Mothers that they were in Christs stead and he sent them but with the eternal light which never changes which Christ Jesus hath enlightned us withal we do see them in the steps of the Scribes and Pharisees garnishing the Sepulchres of the righteous building the Tombs of the Prophets and Apostles as whited walls outsides and sepulchres and graves who bury the just whose hands are full of blood envie and hatred which be such as are called of men Masters and have the chiefest places in the Assemblies stand praying in the Synagogues in the steps of the Pharisees their fathers which were enemies to Christ as you may read Matth. 23. And with the light that comes from our Lord Jesus Christ you are all seen and with it to be condemned no cloak can cover you but you are seen with all the children of the light Praised be the Lord God And the Word of the Lord God to all you who say that you are gifted men who say you are not made Ministers by these two Mothers but you are experienced men pretending a gift and you must exercise your gift and you will have 40 50 or 60 or 80 l. a year more or less as you can get it for your gift Now I charge you in the presence of the living God to be such as erre from the spirit as your father Balaam did and are turned from the commands of God as Cain did and you are the self-separation whose fruit shall wither you are the clouds without water the wandring stars who receive the wages of unrighteousness who speak high swelling words through the lusts of the flesh which have mens persons in admiration because of advantage You are the wells without water which say you are experienced men and gifted men and go and sell your gift to the world here again I do charge you in the presence of the living God to be lyers dissemblers and deceivers of the world and contrary to the Scripture and never perceived the gift of God for the elect you cannot deceive which have received the gift of God which is perfect which cannot be bought and sold for money so your gifts which can be sold for money are not received from God but with the light which comes from Christ Jesus which is eternal you and your gifts are to be condemned which can be bought and sold for money You are them that separate your selves sensual not having the Spirit With the light you are seen your fruits which withers with it which never changes you and it are condemned To that in your consciences I speak which never changes which shall witness me which condemns you to you this is the eternal word of God And you that say ye are Ministers of Christ and declares against these two Mothers aforementioned and her sons and children and you your selves such as are called of men Masters have the chiefest places in the assemblies and stand praying in the Synagogues which our Lord Jesus Christ cried woe against And you say the Scripture is your rule here with Christs words are you judged and seen to be deceivers that deceives the world but they who are in Christ which cried woe against such Woe unto you Scribes and Pharisees as you may read Mat. 23. you cannot deceive and your teachers that say the Scriptures is your rule and are separate from these two Mothers and children before mentioned and which say you must observe the Commands of Christ and Ordinances and are zealous of the outward Commands as the Jews was yet ye do not believe that Jesus Christ inlightens every one that comes into the world Here you and your zeal is to be condemned for it is without the knowledge of God to it I bear record eternally and the Commands of Christ you know not and with the light that cones from Christ Jesus you and your zeal is to be condemned which is taken out from the letter in that minde and nature which acteth contrary to the light so you are in the state of the schisme whose mouthes must be stopped FINIS
