Fox takes the Name to himself saying He is the Eternal Judge of Quick and Dead Answ This is notoriously false in Fact being in the very same Book Saul's Errand recorded among those Matters Falsly charged on G. F. by his Adversaries the Priests and others in the County of Lancaster in their Petition p. 1 2 3 4 5 6. of Saul's Errand where G. F. opposeth and answereth their Objections 2. E. P. c. p. 29. That they meaning the Quakers say That Christ hath no Body but his Church Quoting Saul's Errand p. 9. Answ Which is notoriously false again For it was the said Priest's Objection against L. F. that he professed That Christ had never any Body but his Church Saul 's Errand p. 2. Which was also false and there recorded among their other false Charges objected tho' in the Answer it is confessed That Christ's Church is his Body 'T is also confessed That we are Members of his Body of his Flesh and of his Bones Which grants his particular Body and his Churches Union therewith Therefore far from such Profession as That Christ had never any Body but his Church E. P. c. p. 59. See Parnell 's Shield of Truth p. 12. Where he calls Water-Baptism a formal Invention and Imitation of Men and so a meer Delusion Answ This James Parnell speaks not of Water-Baptism without Distinction as they state it against him for he saith it was a Figure meaning as John and the Disciples used it but of Sprinkling Infants as he saith He received Water upon his Face as his Parents told him This he calls an Invention of Men and so do Baptists I think p. 67 68. Collection of J. P. 's VVritings Thus Immorral and Unjust are these Anabaptists in writing against us FINIS
