A90861	Innocencie appearing, through the dark mists of pretended guilt. Or, A full and true narration of the unjust and illegal proceedings of the commissioners of Berks, (for ejecting scandalous and insufficient ministers) against John Pordage of Bradfield in the same county. In which he is justly vindicated from the unjust and horrid aspersions of blasphemy, divelism or necromancie, scandal in his life, and all things else falsly objected against him by his enemies. Published for the clearing of truth, and the detecting of malice and subtilty, and for the prevention of all mispprehensions that may be caused by any scandalous pamphlets, and false relations of the proceedings in his case. As likewise for the information of all sober-minded Christians touching his judgement in many things of high concernment, and particularly concerning chastity, virginity, apparitions of spirits, visions, communion with the holy angels, the invisible worlds, magistracy, &c. / Written by the said John Pordage.	Pordage, John, 1607-1681.	1655 (1655)	Wing P2967; Thomason E1068_7; ESTC R210422	152,492	125

follow_a principle_n of_o divine_a truth_n as_o my_o real_a and_o avow_a judgement_n 1._o that_o there_o be_v a_o trinity_n of_o person_n in_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o divine_a essence_n viz._n the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n distinct_a from_o each_o other_o 2._o that_o christ_n be_v god_n coeternal_a coessential_a and_o coequal_a with_o the_o father_n and_o therefore_o jehovah_n 3._o that_o christ_n be_v a_o perfect_a saviour_n and_o redeemer_n of_o his_o church_n and_o so_o more_o than_o a_o type_n 4._o that_o christ_n righteousness_n be_v a_o most_o holy_a pure_a spotless_a complete_a and_o perfect_a righteousness_n for_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o lose_a sinner_n 5._o that_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o only_a redeem_n and_o ransome_v in_o reference_n to_o hell_n and_o damnation_n but_o also_o purchase_v in_o reference_n to_o salvation_n as_o have_v purchase_v a_o open_a gate_n and_o way_n to_o glorification_n and_o life_n eternal_a for_o purify_a saint_n 6._o that_o all_o art_n of_o necromancy_n and_o black_a magic_n all_o compact_n with_o evil_a spirit_n whether_o explicit_a or_o implicit_a direct_a or_o indirect_a be_v unlawful_a be_v against_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o never_o look_v into_o or_o practise_v by_o i_o but_o on_o the_o contrary_a abominate_v even_o as_o they_o be_v to_o be_v detest_a and_o abhor_v not_o only_o by_o all_o christian_n but_o by_o all_o mankind_n 7._o that_o polygamy_n and_o all_o such_o practice_n that_o tend_v to_o the_o indulgeing_n of_o the_o flesh_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o mind_n of_o god_n and_o not_o to_o be_v own_v by_o christian_n i_o do_v moreover_o disow_v and_o reject_v these_o subsequent_a position_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o former_a principle_n 1._o as_o to_o maintain_v that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o person_n in_o the_o holy_a trinity_n 2._o that_o christ_n be_v not_o god_n that_o christ_n be_v not_o jehovah_n 3._o that_o christ_n be_v not_o perfect_a and_o that_o he_o be_v no_o more_o than_o a_o type_n 4._o that_o christ_n righteousness_n be_v a_o poor_a vain_a empty_a and_o sapless_a righteousness_n 5._o that_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o merit_v and_o redeam_v blood_n or_o that_o it_o be_v a_o poor_a thing_n to_o live_v upon_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n 6._o that_o be_v lawful_a to_o have_v communion_n with_o evil_a spirit_n or_o any_o compact_n with_o they_o explicit_a or_o implicit_a 7._o that_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o a_o man_n to_o keep_v company_n with_o more_o woman_n than_o one_o now_o this_o most_o solemn_a protestation_n i_o make_v in_o all_o humility_n and_o reverence_n before_o the_o divine_a majesty_n the_o omnipresent_v god_n the_o searcher_n of_o all_o heart_n that_o from_o a_o true_a intention_n without_o any_o vail_n or_o cover_n as_o i_o shall_v answer_v it_o at_o the_o great_a day_n when_o the_o secret_n of_o all_o heart_n shall_v be_v reveal_v and_o now_o if_o you_o my_o judge_n have_v not_o so_o much_o as_o a_o grain_n of_o faith_n to_o believe_v this_o my_o cordial_a and_o solemn_a protestation_n let_v god_n angel_n saint_n and_o all_o here_o present_a bear_v witness_n that_o i_o have_v leave_v every_o one_o of_o you_o inexeusable_a and_o now_o have_v perform_v what_o i_o can_v and_o what_o i_o think_v myself_o oblige_v to_o do_v in_o reference_n to_o the_o vindication_n of_o that_o pure_a truth_n i_o own_o and_o live_v to_o i_o be_o as_o ready_a to_o receive_v any_o sentence_n from_o you_o whether_o of_o acquitment_n or_o ejectment_n as_o you_o be_v to_o deliver_v it_o now_o although_o the_o commissioner_n will_v take_v no_o notice_n of_o this_o solemn_a declare_v of_o my_o judgement_n yet_o it_o be_v of_o great_a moment_n as_o you_o may_v see_v by_o that_o passage_n in_o the_o ordinance_n by_o which_o the_o commissioner_n be_v to_o act_v page_n 613._o where_n it_o
