A66719 The chasing the young quaking harlot out of the city, or, A turning the Quakers dark side into the light wherein is plainly discovered a twofold design against the publick peace, the one by their doctrine, the other by their sword : with an answer to E. B. Salvation to his brethren : the Quaker founded out of his lying trumpet : with seven special marks to know the quaking harlot from the other harlots : also certain queries sent to I. Lilburn, in order to prove his resurrection to be but a meer imagination, and quaking delusion : together with a certain rule to know whether the Quakers doctrine be a new dispensation of Gods, or a fiction out of a Quakers brain / by Thomas Winterton.

into_o the_o world_n be_v as_o a_o hammer_n and_o fire_n to_o break_v and_o consume_v all_o carnal_a lust_n whatsoever_o or_o do_v at_o all_o mortify_v and_o consume_v carnal_a lust_n 2._o let_v we_o

one_o line_n will_v contain_v the_o substance_n of_o the_o matter_n and_o that_o be_v no_o other_o but_o as_o every_o creature_n be_v move_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o live_a god_n and_o here_o be_v all_o the_o substance_n of_o this_o large_a story_n the_o which_o he_o do_v upon_o purpose_n to_o bemuse_v and_o confound_v the_o people_n that_o so_o they_o may_v be_v keep_v off_o from_o the_o

to_o the_o jew_n nor_o christ_n and_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o gentile_n they_o have_v make_v way_n for_o as_o great_a abomination_n as_o the_o quaker_n do_v for_o as_o all_o worship_n will_v have_v be_v one_o as_o another_o so_o every_o worship_n will_v have_v be_v as_o good_a as_o another_o yea_o the_o turk_n the_o pope_n and_o all_o the_o heathen-worshipper_n in_o the_o world_n may_v approve_v

the_o spirit_n of_o the_o live_a god_n and_o therefore_o in_o that_o james_n naylor_n do_v acknowledge_v in_o his_o writing_n that_o there_o be_v a_o carnal_a spirit_n and_o a_o spirit_n of_o the_o

have_v not_o his_o wisdom_n be_v as_o small_a as_o his_o honesty_n 3._o now_o see_v the_o scripture_n can_v say_v nothing_o for_o thou_o in_o the_o good_a sense_n let_v we_o try_v whether_o it_o

beware_v of_o false_a prophet_n and_o in_o the_o 10._o ver_fw-la he_o tell_v we_o that_o we_o may_v know_v they_o by_o their_o fruit_n the_o which_o fruit_n be_v the_o distinguish_a character_n to_o know_v a_o true_a prophet_n from_o a_o false_a now_o this_o character_n be_v not_o 〈◊〉_d pretence_n of_o holiness_n for_o that_o have_v the_o false_a prophet_n for_o the_o text_n say_v that_o they_o come_v in_o sheep_n clothing_n neither_o be_v it_o manifestation_n of_o the_o tongue_n for_o that_o the_o false_a prophet_n can_v do_v likewise_o but_o this_o distinguish_a character_n be_v work_n only_o whereby_o a_o true_a prophet_n or_o apostle_n be_v know_v from_o a_o false_a yea_o and_o thus_o do_v christ_n distinguish_v himself_o from_o all_o false_a christ_n also_o and_o therefore_o he_o say_v the_o work_n that_o i_o do_v bear_v witness_n of_o i_o and_o further_o he_o say_v that_o if_o he_o have_v not_o do_v work_n among_o they_o that_o never_o none_o do_v their_o reject_v of_o he_o have_v be_v no_o sin_n and_o therefore_o when_o he_o command_v his_o disciple_n to_o go_v preach_v unto_o the_o world_n the_o which_o be_v sufficient_a on_o their_o part_n to_o put_v their_o

such_o heavenly_a demonstration_n that_o all_o the_o world_n can_v not_o furnish_v a_o false_a apostle_n or_o prophet_n withal_o and_o therefore_o forasmuch_o as_o james_n naylor_n do_v engage_v in_o
