A47149	Gross error and hypocrisie detected in George Whitehead and some of his brethern as doth appear from the disingenuous and hypocritical answer he and some others have given to some queries sent to the last Yearly Meeting of the people call'd Quakers, in the third month, 1695, by comparing the said answer with the printed books of the said George Whitehead, William Pemn, and John Whitehead, leading men in the said Meeting, wherein the great inconistency and contradiction of their present late answer to the express words and sentiments of their printed books is discovered : with a further account of their vile and pernicious errours / by George Keith.	Keith, George, 1639?-1716.; Lancaster, William, 1650-1717.; Gratton, John, 1641-1712.	1695 (1695)	Wing K172; ESTC R3387	26,885	44

christ_n personal_a come_v yet_o to_o be_v as_o because_o paul_n say_v we_o that_o be_v alive_a and_o remain_v etc._n etc._n as_o if_o therefore_o paul_n do_v not_o mean_v any_o outward_a or_o
