A54177	The new witnesses proved old hereticks, or, Information to the ignorant in which the doctrines of John Reeve and Lodowick Muggleton, which they stile, mysteries never before known, revealed, or heard of from the foundation of the world, are proved to be mostly ancient whimsies, blasphemies and heresies, from the evidence of Scripture, reason and several historians : also an account of some discoourse betwixt L.M. and my self, by which his blasphemous, ignorant and unsavory spirit is clearly and truly manifested, in love to the immortal souls of those few, who are concern'd in the belief of his impostures / by a living true witness to that one eternal way of God, revealed in the light of righteousness W.P.

new_a thing_n it_o be_v strange_a therefore_o that_o moses_n be_v not_o rather_o of_o the_o two_o elect_v to_o represent_v he_o in_o heaven_n who_o be_v a_o figure_n of_o he_o on_o earth_n but_o though_o reeve_n will_v not_o tell_v we_o so_o i_o be_o of_o the_o mind_n i_o know_v the_o reason_n of_o it_o namely_o that_o christ_n do_v not_o call_v moses_n moses_n but_o eli_n eli_n when_o upon_o the_o cross_n and_o i_o be_o persuade_v he_o have_v no_o other_o ground_n for_o that_o conceit_n not_o consider_v that_o eli_n eli_n be_v hebrew_n word_n import_v no_o more_o elias_n elias_n than_o they_o do_v moses_n moses_n but_o my_o god_n my_o god_n as_o the_o place_n express_o show_v we_o much_o more_o may_v be_v say_v but_o let_v this_o serve_v three_o that_o the_o immortal_a god_n can_v never_o die_v or_o cease_v to_o be_v be_v manifest_a and_o the_o contrary_a blasphemous_o false_a 1._o if_o god_n be_v he_o that_o make_v all_o thing_n and_o by_o who_o they_o be_v uphold_v as_o all_o believe_v that_o believe_v there_o be_v a_o god_n at_o all_o then_o have_v he_o cease_v to_o be_v the_o creation_n have_v cease_v to_o have_v be_v uphold_v and_o consequent_o all_o have_v fall_v into_o its_o first_o chaos_n or_o the_o world_n can_v subsist_v without_o he_o 2._o that_o he_o who_o nature_n it_o be_v never_o to_o have_v beginning_n and_o ever_o to_o live_v without_o variation_n can_v never_o become_v so_o contrary_a to_o his_o own_o nature_n and_o be_v as_o to_o change_v die_v or_o cease_v to_o be_v but_o such_o be_v the_o true_a god_n therefore_o he_o never_o die_v 3._o

the_o jew_n crucify_a christ_n or_o the_o saint_n die_v too_o they_o deny_v they_o all_o they_o say_v god_n dyed_n and_o there_o be_v saint_n and_o they_o live_v move_v and_o have_v their_o be_v in_o

of_o itself_o that_o have_v beginning_n from_o or_o dependence_n on_o another_o as_o have_v all_o the_o visible_a world_n on_o god_n therefore_o because_o all_o live_v and_o be_v preserve_v that_o

of_o man_n then_o be_v there_o no_o predestination_n previous_a without_o consideration_n have_v to_o their_o work_n but_o the_o text_n affirm_v most_o plain_o therefore_o such_o decree_n be_v deny_v
