A77227	The Quakers quaking principles examined and refuted in a briefe answer to some erroneous tenets held forth by James Naylor in his answers unto Mr Baxter, and some others that have publikely opposed that blacke spirit in the deluded Quakers. Wherein is also included a serious admonition, how wee ought to behave our selves towards the ministers of the gospell, in respect of communicating unto them; and for giving to the poore, so as the Gospell requires: and to beware of covetousnesse, and the effects thereof, least wee be left of God, and delivered up unto strong delusions, and a blasphemous spirit instead of the spirit of God. The heads of the whole discourse are also premised. / Written by Ellis Bradshavve.	Bradshaw, Ellis.	1656 (1656)	Wing B4147; Thomason E869_1; ESTC R207737	57,239	71

one_o that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n with_o what_o light_n they_o have_v of_o understanding_n and_o rationalitie_n and_o who_o know_v not_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v in_o we_o except_o we_o

by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n by_o which_o no_o flesh_n can_v be_v justify_v but_o by_o the_o hear_n of_o faith_n preach_v because_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o law_n kill_v spiritual_o but_o the_o

stranger_n will_v they_o not_o follow_v for_o they_o know_v not_o the_o voice_n of_o stranger_n joh_n 10.5_o but_o james_n naylor_n be_v send_v with_o strong_a delusien_n to_o some_o that_o they_o

we_o imagine_v ans_fw-fr not_o proper_o of_o god_n nor_o by_o his_o spirit_n but_o satan_n have_v get_v commission_n to_o be_v a_o lie_a spirit_n in_o his_o mouth_n and_o in_o the_o mouth_n of_o all_o his_o complice_n as_o he_o be_v in_o the_o mouth_n of_o all_o ahab_n prophet_n to_o deceive_v those_o who_o receive_v not_o the_o truth_n in_o love_n but_o have_v pleasure_n in_o unrighteousness_n if_o he_o have_v a_o pair_n of_o horn_n of_o iron_n such_o as_o zedekiah_n the_o son_n of_o chenana_n make_v that_o he_o may_v bring_v they_o to_o fox_n and_o tell_v he_o that_o with_o those_o he_o

true_a prophet_n of_o the_o lord_n though_o james_n naylor_n himself_o have_v prophesy_v so_o much_o concern_v all_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n in_o england_n and_o elsewhere_o yea_o even_o all_o the_o generation_n of_o they_o who_o ever_o they_o be_v that_o will_v not_o receive_v and_o believe_v his_o lie_n which_o true_o be_v so_o palpable_o gross_a that_o i_o very_o believe_v that_o not_o one_o minister_n that_o be_v send_v of_o god_n in_o all_o the_o world_n will_v own_v for_o truth_n though_o he_o shuffle_v they_o up_o never_o so_o close_o among_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n as_o in_o that_o be_v he_o be_v extreme_a cunning_n and_o it_o be_v no_o marvel_n if_o that_o old_a lie_a spirit_n have_v skill_n to_o teach_v he_o and_o be_v in_o his_o mouth_n for_o he_o have_v long_o use_v that_o very_a art_n and_o of_o all_o the_o art_n that_o he_o have_v yet_o learned_a it_o be_v the_o most_o deceivable_a and_o therefore_o he_o have_v use_v it_o long_o he_o deceive_v eve_n with_o it_o when_o she_o be_v pure_a from_o sin_n and_o perfect_o wise_a no_o marvel_n then_o if_o he_o deceive_v so_o many_o now_o that_o be_v lade_v with_o sin_n and_o lead_v with_o divers_a lust_n and_o not_o so_o wise_a as_o she_o but_o i_o hope_v it_o be_v his_o last_o and_o chief_a refuge_n i_o can_v but_o rejoice_v to_o see_v he_o play_v this_o card_n to_o transsorme_v himself_o into_o a_o angel_n of_o light_n and_o his_o minister_n into_o minister_n of_o righteousness_n i_o hope_v it_o will_v be_v to_o his_o loss_n in_o the_o end_n if_o the_o ranter_n doctrine_n will_v have_v take_v among_o we_o he_o will_v never_o have_v own_v so_o many_o truth_n and_o good_a thing_n but_o that_o not_o take_v he_o be_v glad_a to_o transform_v himself_o and_o his_o minister_n in_o new_a suit_n of_o apparel_n not_o all_o out_o of_o course_n but_o fine_a wool_n and_o smooth_o weave_v and_o dress_v yet_o the_o design_n and_o doctrine_n against_o the_o scripture_n be_v not_o own_v as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o in_o respect_n of_o disow_v the_o teach_n of_o man_n as_o utter_o needless_a they_o be_v teach_v of_o god_n as_o they_o say_v to_o love_v one_o another_o they_o be_v just_o the_o same_o which_o the_o ranter_n use_v their_o design_n be_v clear_o the_o same_o with_o the_o ranter_n to_o wit_n to_o preach_v down_o all_o preach_n and_o teach_n of_o man_n though_o never_o so_o holy_a and_o

that_o light_n though_o it_o be_v but_o darkness_n in_o comparison_n of_o what_o we_o may_v learn_v from_o scripture_n and_o from_o man_n likewise_o who_o teach_v we_o from_o thence_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n second_o where_o do_v the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o that_o he_o that_o be_v the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n and_o that_o inlighten_v every_o one_o that_o comute_v into_o the_o world_n do_v inlighten_v all_o sufficient_o and_o so_o as_o to_o guide_v they_o insallible_o or_o that_o he_o inlighten_v all_o alike_o and_o that_o immediate_o without_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o

even_o to_o the_o least_o of_o they_o be_v the_o case_n so_o now_o that_o all_o know_v he_o what_o need_n be_v there_o then_o of_o the_o teach_n of_o james_n naylor_n and_o his_o complice_n if_o their_o light_n within_o they_o be_v sufficient_a it_o can_v teach_v they_o all_o that_o he_o do_v and_o all_o that_o he_o know_v and_o how_o to_o eye_v it_o only_o and_o to_o look_v within_o for_o
