B09558	A looking-glass for George Fox the Quaker, and other Quakers; wherein they may see themselves to be right devils. In answer to George Fox his book, called, Something in answer to Lodowick Muggletons book, which he calls The Quakers neck broken. Wherein is set forth the ignorance and blindness of the Quakers doctrine of Christ within them; and that they cannot, nor doth not know the true meaning of the Scriptures, neither have they the gift of interpretation of Scripture. As will appear in those several heads set down in the next page following. / Written by Lodowick Muggleton ...	Muggleton, Lodowick, 1609-1698.	1667 (1667)	Wing M3046; ESTC R10137	83,636	106

late_a not_o in_o any_o i_o marvel_v how_o you_o quaker_n can_v have_v christ_n person_n manifest_a in_o you_o and_o how_o you_o can_v speak_v in_o his_o person_n let_v the_o reader_n mind_n the_o quaker_n cheat_n they_o own_o christ_n person_n without_o they_o yet_o this_o person_n of_o christ_n without_o they_o be_v manifest_a within_o they_o see_v the_o deceit_n of_o this_o fox_n i_o have_v read_v of_o christ_n manifest_v in_o his_o saint_n and_o apostle_n by_o his_o spirit_n or_o seed_n of_o faith_n but_o i_o never_o read_v that_o christ_n person_n flesh_n and_o bone_n be_v ever_o manifest_a within_o any_o man_n that_o be_v always_o without_o man_n and_o will_v be_v without_o man_n for_o ever_o distinct_a of_o himself_o also_o fox_n say_v the_o quaker_n speak_v in_o christ_n person_n here_o be_v another_o allegorical_a speech_n without_o any_o distinction_n i_o have_v hear_v that_o a_o ambassador_n have_v represent_v the_o person_n of_o a_o king_n and_o his_o speech_n by_o virtue_n of_o a_o commission_n from_o the_o king_n be_v in_o the_o king_n stead_n but_o the_o ambassador_n be_v not_o in_o the_o king_n person_n though_o he_o represent_v the_o king_n person_n the_o king_n person_n be_v at_o a_o great_a distance_n from_o his_o messenger_n so_o it_o be_v with_o christ_n ambassador_n as_o paul_n say_v we_o be_v ambassador_n in_o christ_n stead_n beseech_v you_o to_o be_v reconcile_v unto_o christ_n by_o our_o doctrine_n now_o paul_n person_n and_o christ_n person_n be_v at_o a_o great_a distance_n one_o from_o the_o other_o for_o christ_n person_n be_v in_o heaven_n above_o the_o star_n and_o paul_n person_n be_v here_o upon_o earth_n so_o that_o paul_n do_v not_o speak_v in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v at_o such_o a_o distance_n as_o i_o say_v before_o but_o paul_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n by_o virtue_n of_o their_o commission_n give_v from_o christ_n be_v ambassador_n of_o he_o and_o so_o stand_v in_o christ_n stead_n but_o christ_n person_n be_v far_o enough_o off_o from_o they_o as_o a_o king_n person_n be_v far_o off_o when_o his_o ambassador_n be_v in_o a_o strange_a land_n who_o represent_v the_o king_n person_n as_o aforesaid_a but_o the_o quaker_n they_o will_v get_v into_o christ_n person_n and_o speak_v there_o or_o else_o they_o will_v get_v christ_n person_n into_o they_o and_o so_o christ_n must_v speak_v there_o in_o their_o person_n so_o as_o i_o say_v before_o the_o quaker_n will_v not_o be_v separate_v from_o christ_n nor_o suffer_v he_o to_o separate_v himself_o from_o they_o though_o i_o know_v they_o never_o be_v in_o union_n together_o neither_o be_v christ_n ever_o in_o they_o that_o i_o have_v damn_v nor_o never_o will_v be_v neither_o be_v they_o ever_o in_o christ_n nor_o never_o shall_v be_v neither_o do_v fox_n own_o indeed_o that_o person_n of_o christ_n of_o flesh_n and_o bone_n that_o die_v at_o jerusalem_n to_o be_v now_o live_v in_o heaven_n above_o the_o star_n but_o fox_n and_o the_o quaker_n christ_n they_o so_o much_o talk_v of_o be_v a_o mere_a allegory_n without_o substance_n a_o christ_n that_o may_v be_v blow_v away_o with_o the_o word_n of_o a_o true_a prophet_n mouth_n as_o i_o say_v in_o the_o neck_n of_o the_o quaker_n break_v also_o fox_n say_v solomon_n book_n be_v good_a scripture_n though_o i_o say_v they_o be_v not_o be_v not_o in_o the_o spirit_n of_o solomon_n that_o give_v they_o forth_o here_o i_o perceive_v that_o fox_n and_o the_o quaker_n be_v get_v into_o solomon_n spirit_n just_a as_o they_o do_v get_v into_o christ_n person_n i_o see_v fox_n can_v get_v into_o spirit_n as_o he_o do_v into_o person_n but_o i_o perceive_v fox_n be_v get_v into_o solomon_n spirit_n and_o he_o blame_v i_o because_o i_o be_o not_o in_o solomon_n spirit_n i_o do_v serious_o confess_v that_o i_o be_o not_o in_o solomon_n spirit_n and_o i_o be_o glad_a i_o never_o be_v in_o his_o spirit_n for_o who_o ever_o be_v in_o solomon_n spirit_n do_v not_o know_v the_o true_a god_n nor_o the_o right_a devil_n for_o solomon_n know_v neither_o of_o they_o though_o he_o be_v a_o wise_a man_n in_o thing_n of_o nature_n but_o ignorant_a of_o spiritual_a and_o heavenly_a wisdom_n for_o solomon_n wisdom_n have_v the_o groundwork_n of_o much_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o idolatry_n for_o the_o ranter_n practice_n be_v ground_v upon_o solomon_n practice_n who_o know_v so_o many_o woman_n so_o the_o ranter_n think_v they_o may_v have_v the_o same_o liberty_n see_v wise_a solomon_n write_n be_v own_a for_o scripture-record_n thus_o they_o continue_v many_o of_o they_o in_o their_o practice_n of_o lust_n till_o many_o of_o they_o be_v weary_a of_o it_o as_o solomon_n be_v when_o he_o be_v old_a and_o then_o they_o leave_v off_o that_o practice_n and_o turn_v quaker_n and_o so_o fall_v to_o be_v the_o great_a idolater_n of_o any_o as_o solomon_n do_v to_o his_o heathenish-wive_n draw_v his_o heart_n away_o from_o the_o worship_n of_o moses_n to_o worship_v idol_n so_o be_v it_o with_o those_o ranter_n that_o be_v turn_v quaker_n they_o be_v become_v absolute_a heathen_a idolater_n for_o when_o they_o be_v puritan_n so_o call_v they_o be_v zealous_a for_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o do_v practise_v a_o good_a life_n as_o near_o as_o they_o can_v to_o the_o letter_n but_o after_o they_o fall_v to_o the_o practice_n of_o lust_n be_v encourage_v by_o solomon_n writing_n they_o leave_v that_o legal_a worship_n and_o civil_a practice_n the_o law_n tie_v they_o unto_o and_o follow_v solomon_n practice_n of_o lust_n and_o now_o they_o be_v turn_v quaker_n be_v fall_v to_o heathen_a idolatry_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o quaker_n they_o worship_v a_o unknown_a god_n a_o spirit_n without_o a_o body_n they_o adore_v a_o christ_n within_o they_o and_o never_o mind_v a_o body_n of_o christ_n without_o they_o at_o a_o distance_n they_o believe_v their_o own_o spirit_n to_o be_v immortal_a and_o can_v die_v they_o believe_v their_o spirit_n go_v to_o god_n or_o into_o god_n again_o according_a to_o solomon_n word_n they_o believe_v god_n spirit_n be_v a_o infinite_a be_v without_o a_o body_n and_o that_o this_o infinite_a bodiless_a spirit_n take_v all_o thing_n into_o itself_o and_o so_o their_o spirit_n be_v immortal_a they_o go_v into_o god_n when_o they_o die_v they_o will_v not_o acknowledge_v that_o life_n or_o soul_n do_v die_v but_o depart_v out_o of_o the_o body_n they_o know_v not_o where_o notwithstanding_o the_o scripture_n be_v so_o full_a to_o prove_v the_o soul_n that_o sin_n shall_v die_v and_o experience_n show_v it_o do_v die_v so_o that_o the_o quaker_n be_v become_v the_o great_a spiritual_a idolater_n of_o any_o and_o the_o great_a fighter_n against_o a_o personal_a god_n of_o any_o for_o as_o solomon_n do_v fall_v to_o worship_v the_o heathen_a woman_n visible_a image_n or_o idol_n so_o do_v the_o quaker_n worship_n invisible_a idol_n as_o a_o spirit_n without_o a_o body_n and_o that_o their_o own_o spirit_n may_v subsist_v without_o body_n and_o that_o spirit_n may_v be_v capable_a of_o happiness_n or_o misery_n without_o body_n this_o be_v the_o heathen_a philosopher_n opinion_n they_o bring_v into_o the_o world_n that_o principle_n of_o the_o immortality_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o that_o spirit_n may_v go_v to_o happiness_n or_o misery_n without_o body_n and_o the_o quaker_n have_v get_v the_o heathen_a principle_n to_o a_o hair_n therefore_o become_v heathen_a idolater_n as_o solomon_n be_v for_o the_o scripture_n declare_v another_o thing_n where_o do_v the_o scripture_n say_v that_o god_n be_v a_o infinite_a spirit_n without_o a_o body_n the_o scripture_n say_v god_n be_v infinite_a and_o so_o he_o be_v also_o the_o scripture_n say_v god_n be_v a_o spirit_n and_o will_v be_v worship_v in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n but_o it_o be_v not_o say_v god_n be_v a_o spirit_n without_o a_o body_n for_o this_o i_o say_v that_o if_o a_o man_n may_v worship_n god_n in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n in_o this_o natural_a body_n as_o the_o disciple_n of_o christ_n do_v in_o their_o natural_a body_n and_o as_o i_o myself_o do_v in_o my_o natural_a body_n then_o of_o necessity_n it_o will_v follow_v that_o god_n have_v a_o spiritual_a body_n whereby_o i_o may_v worship_v he_o else_o i_o shall_v worship_v i_o know_v not_o what_o as_o you_o quaker_n do_v and_o because_o god_n body_n be_v a_o spiritual_a body_n therefore_o christ_n say_v when_o on_o earth_n god_n be_v a_o spirit_n and_o will_v be_v worship_v in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n he_o know_v that_o body_n of_o his_o that_o be_v then_o a_o pure_a natural_a body_n shall_v by_o his_o death_n and_o rise_v again_o be_v make_v a_o spiritual_a body_n and_o then_o all_o true_a believer_n

shall_v worship_v he_o in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n here_o in_o this_o natural_a body_n and_o so_o true_a believer_n have_v worship_v christ_n the_o only_a god_n in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n in_o the_o apostle_n commission_n and_o so_o do_v we_o now_o worship_n god_n in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n for_o there_o can_v be_v no_o worship_v god_n in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n without_o a_o true_a preacher_n send_v of_o god_n as_o the_o apostle_n john_n reeve_n and_o myself_o be_v and_o in_o this_o sense_n god_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o spirit_n because_o he_o be_v a_o spiritual_a body_n and_o not_o a_o bodiless_a spirit_n as_o you_o quaker_n do_v vain_o imagine_v else_o why_o may_v not_o god_n be_v worship_v in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n without_o a_o body_n as_o well_o as_o god_n to_o be_v a_o spirit_n without_o a_o body_n you_o quaker_n do_v not_o do_v well_o in_o that_o you_o do_v not_o turn_v your_o soul_n out_o of_o your_o body_n they_o be_v as_o you_o conceive_v immortal_a i_o think_v you_o may_v sometime_o let_v your_o immortal_a soul_n slip_v out_o of_o your_o body_n and_o go_v into_o that_o infinite_a spirit_n without_o a_o body_n and_o worship_n in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n and_o then_o come_v into_o those_o body_n again_o for_o i_o see_v you_o have_v by_o your_o own_o word_n get_v into_o christ_n person_n and_o you_o have_v get_v into_o solomon_n spirit_n and_o why_o can_v you_o not_o get_v your_o immortal_a soul_n into_o god_n infinite_a spirit_n without_o a_o body_n by_o this_o the_o reader_n may_v see_v that_o the_o quaker_n principle_n be_v build_v upon_o the_o heathen_a philosopher_n and_o not_o upon_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n who_o write_v the_o scripture_n for_o heathen_a man_n be_v the_o first_o broacher_n of_o the_o immortality_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o of_o god_n be_v a_o infinite_a spirit_n without_o a_o body_n and_o so_o the_o great_a idolater_n for_o those_o that_o write_v the_o scripture_n never_o intend_v any_o such_o thing_n but_o altogether_o the_o contrary_a but_o the_o quaker_n do_v cleave_v to_o the_o heathen_a principle_n as_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n without_o a_o body_n and_o the_o immortality_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o so_o they_o become_v with_o the_o heathen_a the_o great_a spiritual_a idolater_n of_o any_o people_n under_o the_o sun_n for_o i_o be_o quite_o out_o of_o solomon_n spirit_n
