Rom. 8. 14. Also, something in short, concerning Melchizedeks order of taking the tythes of spoils only of Abraham, after the return from the slaughter of the kings, a free-will offering at one time, and no more, Gen, 14. answering Heb. 7. And in short, of the order of tythes, by command under the law, in the Aaronical and Levitical priesthood, the change of the law, and priesthood also, Heb. 7. 12. so an end of tythes: with a godly exhortation and instruction, full of sweet Gospell truths, to such as have the witness of the new Testament, through the blood of Jesus, and some mementoes: with something also to stop lies and slanders, that trute [sic] may be cleared.

are gone out into the world i Ioh. 4 i And your spirit and doctrine is tryed and proved to be contrary to the Apostles who had the Spirit of God dwelling in them and were guided by it and the Spirituall man judged all things but you bring a contrary Doctrine to theirs that saith the Spirituall man doth not judge all things here you have the lying spirit you also said you had not the same spirit that the Apostles of Christ had so a contrary as it is tryed therefore are you the false Prophets that are gone out into the world preaching for hyre and seeking your gaine from your quarter and so to be denyed and declared against as such false teachers was Ier. 5 30,3i Isa 56 i0 ii And you that said you had not the same spirit that the Apostles had your spirit is the false spirit and not the true then not the spirit of God therefore you are to be holden accursed and also your doctrine that is contrary and by a contrary spirit to theirs Gal. i,8,9 The Apostles and ministers of Christ and the New-Covenant were able Ministers of the spirit 2 Cor. 3.6 and they had the spirit of God dwelling in them i Iohn 3.24 i Cor. 2 i2 Rom. 8 i4,15 i6 And they that had the spirit of God to wit Christs Apostles you said you had not the same spirit that they had then the spirit of error therefore are you none of Christs Apostles nor Ministers that hath not his spirit for if any man have not the spirit of Christ they are none of his Rom. 8.9 but the Apostles and Ministers of Christ had the spirit of Christ and were made able Ministers thereby 2 Cor. 3.6 and by it they knew that they was his Rom. 8 i5 i6 i7 and you that say you have not their spirit you have not the spirit of Christ and so are none of his for they had his spirit out of your own mouths are you judged who have shewed a false spirit and a spirit of error whereby you are known and your spirit tryed and proved to be that spirit of error and so you that are in the spirit of error are those false Prophets that are gone out into the world i Iohn 4 i who through Covetousness makes a prey upon the people as such in your nature did Ezek. 34. Mic. 3 ii 2. Pet. 2. Iude ii And you that say the spirituall man doth not judg all things when the Minister of the spirit and spirituall man in his Doctrine said he doth judge all things as by Scripture is proved here again you ly of the Scriptures and cross the Spirituall Mans doctrine and bringeth a contrary doctrine to the Spirituall Mans Doctrine therefore sylence deceivers and stop your mouths you are not to be received into the house of believers but to be holden accursed as the Scripture saith 2 Iohn 9 i0 i1 Galathians i. 8 You two Priests are manifested to be out of the Apostles Doctrine and false witnesses against the truth of the Spirituall Mans Doctrine for hee that is spirituall judgeth all things so saith the Scriptures and you ly against plain Scripture and saith the Spiritual Man doth not judg all things the Spiritual Mans words proves the truth against your error and deceit for he who was the learned Apostle in the Spiritual truths doth affirm the truth of the thing and saith he that is Spirituall judgeth all things proved in 1 Cor. 2 i5 And they had an unction from the holy one who thereby knew all things proved by sound words in Scripture i Iohn 2.20 He that said the Spirituall man judged all things is to be beleeved before you for he had the spirit of God guiding him and you say you have not the same Spirit therefore are you and your doctrine to be denyed and he thae said the Spirituall man judged all things is to beleeved before you for he knew the counsell of God witnessed by Scripture Acts 20.26,27,28 but you that have not the Apostles Spirit as you said you had not you are out of the Counsel of God also which they stood in and therefore are you to be denyed declared against by such as stand in the counsel of God as the Gospel ministers did Acts 20. 27. who your selves are found lyars of the Apostle that stood in the Counsel of God and falfe witnesses against his doctrine that shunned not to declare the Counsel of God which you are not in that said the Spirituall man did not judg all things and the SCRIPTURE saith Hee doth judge all Things and is to bee believed and you are by the life of them judged and denyed who also said you had not an infallible spirit and said you had not the same Spirit that the Apostles had then you have the fallible false lying Spirit the spirit of error as it is proved and as you to the Children of light have manifessed your selves your dark Caves will not hide you who be in the works of darkness Therefore can wee the CHILDREN of LIGHT have no fellowship with your unfruitfull VVORKS of DARKNESSE but rather reprove them as wee are required proved Ephesians 5 ii And woe to you and all such who are covered but not with the SPIRIT of the LORD who adds Sin unto Sin as such in your nature do and aforetime did read Isa 30 i Another Example concerning the SPIRITUALL MANS Iudgement the SPIRIT of the LORD in STEPHEN the Messenger of GOD who were full of the HOLY GHOST that SPIRIT in and through him did see the IEVVS hearts and so far judged them that they were wounded or cut to the very hearts such as were out of Stephens Righteous life for in the Spirit he saw there inwards and told them they was uncircumcised in hearts and judging the uncircumcision of the hearts he judged the seat of enmity and Rebellion from whence proceeded the enmity that resis●ted the Holy Ghost and so he saw the secrets of their hearts and were able to judge the deceipt by the spirit given him of the Lord and by the same spirit in the gift or discerning with it others of the Messengers and Servants of God in the power of the Holy Ghost may see the uncircumcision of the heart and reprove and judg the enmity therein in the hearts of others where it is uncrucifyed though at it they rage now as then they did at him Stephen a man full of power and the holy Ghost said ye uncircumcised in hearts ye always resist the Holy Ghost as did your fathers so do ye and judging the uncircumcision of the heart that is judged which is for condemnation for who are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands the body of Sin is thereby put off and the enmitie slaine for therein lay the enmity in Sins body which being put off there is no confydence in the flesh but unyon with the Father through the Son enjoyed and witnessed and things judged by the
eternall Spirit both concerning salvation and condemnation for such as beleeved not the truth but hath pleasure in unrighteousness are for damnation as in the Spiritual mans doctrine is witnessed Acts 7 5i c. Philip. 3.3 Colos 2 ii and Ephes 3.14 i5 i6 2 Thes 2 i2 Priest Chester thou said Peter though an Apostle knew not the heart of another and so thou said a man might know and be able to judg his own heart but not the heart of another And the Priest of Drayton with the affirmed thee same to manifest your lyes against the truth and your enmity against the Spirituall mans judgment Then I took a bible and read Peters words of sound truth to confute your error there in that time instead of maintaining your cause according to truth you could not but suffered the rude people to hale me and others away and they stopped my mouth with hands and gloves and made one of us to bleed Oh shame upon such a profession teachers and people the end is seene and the fruits of it accursed that is out of the light and out of the truth the Lord is against such for as a Troop of Robbers wait for a man so the company of Priests murder in the way by consent proved Hosea 6. and 9. and there is like Priest like people as their fruits make it manifest and as may be read in Hosea the 4. and 9. And whereas you Priests and lyars said that Peter though an Apostle yet he knew not the heart of another and so you would have raised enmity against the truth saying one might know their owne hearts but not the hearts of others therefore ought they not to judge of the hearts of other men c. Now I shall answer that according to truth being by Scripture proved that Peter an Apostle did know the heart of another and judg the enmity therein which were conceived against the holy Ghost and so against the truth then by and with the same Spirit that was then in Peter the hearts of others may be seen and known therefore is and may the enmity be judged in others hearts by the Spirit of truth as was then but Peter by the spirit given him of God he did know anothers Heart to wit Annanias as then I said til I were haled away by the rude people and might not then be suffered to plead the truth against your deceipts let the honest hearted read Peters words of truth Act. 5. And with his Spirit where it is manifested to rule the heart and guide and govern in the understanding with the gift of the Spirit in the discerning such may judge your pride and deceipt who lies against the truth as then you did Read Acts 5. and there Peter knew the hearts of others and judged the deceipt therein of such by the Spirit of the Lord that Sinned against the truth and the holy Ghost and lyed not to men but to the Lord as Annanias and Saphira did and Peter said to him Annanias why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie against the holy Ghost Acts 5.3 And why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart thou hast not lyed unto men but unto God Acts 5.4 Annanias hearing these words fell down and gave up the Ghost and great fear came upon them that heard these things c. Acts 5.5,6 And Peter said to his wife how is it that ye have agreed to tempt the Spirit of the Lord behold the feet of them that have buried thy husband are at the dore and shall carry thee out then fell she down straightway and yeilded up the Ghost c. Acts 5.7,8,9 i0 Here Peter knew the deceipt of two hearts to wit Annanias and Saphira he knew that Satan had filled their hearts and that they had lyed against the Holy Ghost and that they had tempted the Spirit of the Lord and as Peter knew it by the Spirit of the Lord given unto him from the Lord so others with the same gift from the Lord in the Revelation upon the Spirituall Rock on which the Church of God is built with the same Spirit others on that Rock may see and know deceiptfull and evil hearts and Spirits that are not of that Rock as he did being the gift of God to discern Spirits i Cor. i2 i0 Therefore those that have the discerning and gift given for that end to try Spirits whether they be of God or no the spirit of truth may judge the Spirit of error and deceipt and Sit where Satan Sits in others hearts as it did and the Spirituall man may judge the deceitful heart and the Servant of the Lord may condemn the lying tongue it is a gift proper to him from God according to the Fathers promise who hath said to his in his word every tongue that shall rise up in judgment against thee thou shalt condemn this is the heritage of the Servants of the Lord and their righteousness is of me saith the Lord Isa 54 i7 Therefore be not offended at the Spirituall Mans judgment but let the deceipt of the heart be judged none are offended at it but such as are guilty and condemned by the light of God in their own consciences that answers the judgment to be just upon all who act contrary to the truth and loves darkness rather than the light Ioh. 3.19,20,21 and seeing it is the heritage of the servants of the Lord to condemn every tongue that shall rise up in judgment against them Isa 51 i7 Then there is no condemnation to such as be in the light and so in Christ Iesus Iohn 8.12 Rom. 8 i Therefore they may execute the word of the Lord and do his service and work in condemning deceitfull and evil tongues that riseth up in false judgment against them with joy may they do it because of the Lord their righteousness who hath given them such a gift and a priviledg worh their inheritance for this is the heritage of the servants of the Lord to i ●ondemn every tongue that riseth in judgment against them therefore the●…●…ghteous Spirit may judge the evill heart and the servant of the Lord according to his word may condemn the lying tongue that riseth in judgment against him but the wicked are not to judge the righteous seed which God hath for ever blessed yet the seed of God may judge the seed of the serpent according to the word of the LORD at this the SERPENT is offended because by the righteous seed hee is judged and condemned but there is no condemnation to them that are in CHRIST IESUS who walhk not after the flesh but after the Spirit Rom. 8. and they that are Christs ave crucifyed the flesh with the affections and lust thereof Gal. 5.24 And where judgment is brought forth into victory and the fylth of the flesh pur●…ed out by the spirit of judgment and the spirit of burning Isa 4. There the hearts judg is witnessed ruler and the consuming Fire and
to have no other inheritance amongst the Tribes set apart to do the work required under that Law and were Aaronicall and Leviticall and had a store-house to minister out of from the Tythes by that Law to the poor the widdows fatherless and strangers Num. 18 20,2i c. Numb 4. Deut. i4 29 Malach. 3 i0 He and they that claims tythes by command or a Law of God and are not Aaronicall and Leviticall nor set apart for that service they was who took tythes by command and hath no store-house neither do their gates stand open for the poor the widdows and fatherless thither to come and strangers also to be filled and satisfyed that there may not be a beggar in the land as there was not to be a beggar in Israel but maintained out of the tythes and such as do not as aforesaid and the things in that Law and Covenant contained which was imposed upon them as to circumcise and offer burnt offerings and what by the Priests under that Priesthood were of them required such as do not are by that Laws end and all that witness it to be denyed and by that Law such hath not right to tythes that do not what it of them requires but to be denyed who do not their work therein required that had the tythes a peculiar gift for their service only during that ministration But Christ is come the end of the Law and Covenant in which tythes were paid and he is the everlasting offering and end of all burnt offerings and Sacrifyces that were under the Law are now ended and ceased and so tythes where the New Covenant is witnessed and the Priesthood being changed the Law is changed also and Christ is the end and sum of the things spoken of in Heb. 7 8 9 and i0 Chapters Therefore sylence tything Priests and tyth-mongers you that take tythes deny Christ come in the flesh to put an end to the Aaronicall and Leviticall Priesthood in which they were paid but not in the Gospell therefore are you denyed and are no Ministers of Christ the new Covenant nor the Gospell but declared against by such as witness the unchangeable Priesthood of which Christ Iesus is head and the Saints high Priest praised be the Lord for the riches of his love Something of Chester Priest of Witherley about nakedness PRiest Chester of VVitherley who out of the pride and presumption and evill of thy heart with a lying tongue said to George Fox maliciously Sirrah dost thou heare the old Fox shall take thee and carry thee to the Goale and there shall help to kill thee and to take an Iron and thrust thee thorough this Iohn Smith doth witness Let all the Children of light judge of thy evill heart and take notice of thy envy and false Prophecy who art that lying Prophet thou would have covered it over with zach i3 3 but there is no mention of Sirrah not that the old Fox there nor that hee should rake George and carry him to the Goale nor that he should do as thou said but in it thou hast manifested thy lying Spirit and the envy of thy heart and to be such a one as said when the other Priest was reproved for lying that it was no lye but a slip with the tongue but such covers will not hide Serpents their nakedness from the truth doth appear and wo to all such that cover but not with the Spirit of the Lord that they may adde Sin unto Sin as thou dost and such in thy nature read Isa 30 i Mat. 23.33 Thy foul Spirit and unclean garments are seen and naked thou are from the truth and when thou was contending with the young man in the grave yard against one that had been moved to strip and put off here our cloaths to fygure out such as thou who art naked from the truth and hath thy cloak of dishonesty and coverings of deceit to cast off and all such as thou art but in vindication of the truth against thy deceit I told thee Isaiah the servant of the Lord in his days he went naked in obedience to the word of the Lord to Figure out to Egypt and Ethiopia what the King of Assyria should do unto them Isa 20.3,4,5 And thou lyar said Isaiah did not act or do the thing as to go naked and bare-foot thou said it was but a vision and not an act done till there openly I took a bible and with Isaiahs sound words of truth confuted thy lies therein for thou said he did not do the thing and he said he did do it to wit put off the sack-cloath from off his loyns and the shoe from off his foot and go naked and bare-foot in obedience to the word of the Lord Isa 20 i,2 by Isaiahs words left upon Record in the Scriptures art thou proved a lyar therein and thou was proved a lyar in other things and so manifested thy lying Spirit who thy self art that false lying Prophet speaking lyes of the truth and lyes of Isaiah the true Prophet and servant of the Lord thou said hee did not go naked and bare-foot and hee saith he did go naked and bare-foot and he is to be believed for there is this proofe for it Isa 20. but none for thine against it therefore stop thy mouth thou lying Spirit thou said the Spiritual man did not judge all things and he saith he did judg all things and is to be trusted and believed in what he said there is proofe for his truth i Cor. 2 i5 but none for thy lyes therein against it thou lying spirit and false Prophet that lyes of the true Prophet and of the Spirituall man thou art one that preaches for hire and seeks for thy gaine from thy Quarter as false teachers like thee did which the Lord sent his servants to cry against therefore art thou to be cryed against as such was Ier. 5 30,3i Isa 56 i0 ii Mic. 3 ii Ezek. 34.2 Pet. 2.

Priest Mousall that day in Drayton grave yard out of fury struck Richard Farnworths bible out of his hand who would have had Priest Mousall by it to have proved his practise according to Gospell order but could not
