to_o be_v evil_o speak_v of_o and_o he_o may_v expect_v to_o bear_v the_o displeasure_n of_o the_o lord_n for_o so_o do_v and_o as_o for_o john_n swinton_n in_o what_o he_o have_v write_v against_o friend_n the_o lord_n do_v not_o own_o it_o for_o it_o do_v not_o proceed_v from_o his_o own_o power_n and_o spirit_n and_o therefore_o the_o witness_n of_o god_n in_o his_o people_n do_v deny_v it_o and_o it_o can_v be_v receive_v into_o the_o spirit_n and_o power_n of_o truth_n because_o it_o proceed_v not_o from_o it_o so_o that_o he_o have_v not_o the_o answer_n of_o god_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o his_o people_n for_o its_o acceptation_n but_o be_v testify_v against_o because_o it_o be_v for_o condemnation_n therefore_o john_n swinton_n have_v better_o never_o have_v write_v the_o same_o but_o it_o may_v be_v a_o warning_n to_o he_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v to_o take_v heed_n how_o he_o presume_v to_o do_v any_o such_o thing_n and_o as_o for_o the_o ground_n and_o cause_n of_o john_n perrot_n forsake_v his_o ministry_n he_o say_v he_o have_v cause_n as_o well_o natural_a in_o manhood_n and_o tender_a affection_n to_o his_o wife_n and_o child_n as_o spiritual_a in_o obedience_n to_o that_o life_n which_o draw_v he_o for_o example_n sake_n to_o labour_n in_o his_o proper_a station_n it_o seem_v his_o ground_n be_v first_o earthly_a and_o proceed_v from_o a_o natural_a cause_n that_o be_v the_o first_o motive_n to_o lay_v down_o his_o ministry_n viz._n in_o respect_n of_o his_o wife_n and_o child_n not_o consider_v that_o they_o who_o have_v receive_v a_o ministry_n from_o god_n be_v to_o continue_v faithful_a to_o the_o lord_n in_o their_o ministration_n and_o in_o preach_v the_o word_n to_o be_v instant_a in_o season_n and_o out_o of_o season_n notwithstanding_o wife_n and_o child_n for_o christ_n have_v say_v he_o that_o love_v any_o thing_n more_o than_o i_o be_v not_o worthy_a of_o i_o and_o that_o which_o a_o man_n most_o love_n that_o he_o be_v most_o constant_a unto_o and_o can_v do_v the_o most_o for_o and_o do_v it_o most_o free_o and_o as_o for_o the_o second_o cause_n it_o be_v but_o a_o pretence_n and_o mere_a deceit_n as_o if_o god_n shall_v give_v a_o ministry_n to_o one_o and_o afterward_o lead_v he_o from_o it_o again_o to_o be_v cover_v over_o with_o earth_n as_o a_o example_n to_o other_o which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o truth_n and_o to_o the_o command_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o true_a gospel_n minister_n who_o say_v walk_v as_o you_o have_v we_o for_o example_n and_o they_o do_v not_o do_v as_o john_n perrot_n do_v for_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v be_v follow_v as_o a_o example_n than_o all_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n may_v forsake_v their_o ministry_n according_a to_o john_n account_n and_o turn_v into_o the_o earthly_a employment_n and_o lie_v hide_v under_o the_o earth_n and_o no_o more_o appear_v for_o the_o lord_n and_o his_o truth_n so_o that_o it_o appear_v his_o ministry_n stand_v in_o his_o own_o will_n to_o dispense_v with_o and_o now_o he_o be_v lay_v aside_o as_o one_o useless_a and_o whereas_o he_o say_v he_o can_v not_o bear_v that_o the_o gospel_n shall_v be_v chargeable_a on_o his_o part_n but_o be_v willing_a to_o lay_v forth_o his_o all_o for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n sake_n that_o be_v concern_v therein_o that_o be_v but_o deceit_n that_o speak_v in_o he_o for_o who_o have_v be_v chargeable_a like_o unto_o he_o upon_o that_o consideration_n and_o then_o he_o have_v forsake_v that_o which_o he_o make_v so_o chargeable_a to_o his_o shame_n and_o confusion_n and_o be_v turn_v into_o the_o earth_n again_o which_o be_v his_o proper_a station_n or_o place_n according_a to_o his_o own_o say_n and_o as_o for_o john_n harwood_n john_n white-house_n and_o dorothy_n white_a they_o be_v deny_v disow_v and_o judge_v by_o robert_n cobbet_n as_o he_o have_v acknowledge_v to_o some_o of_o we_o and_o we_o do_v deny_v they_o to_o be_v of_o we_o and_o hereby_o declare_v that_o we_o do_v not_o own_v they_o but_o do_v testify_v against_o they_o and_o all_o such_o factious_a spirit_n and_o whereas_o john_n perrot_n in_o that_o letter_n from_o jamaica_n say_v he_o be_v toss_v on_o every_o hand_n yet_o not_o move_v by_o any_o if_o he_o be_v not_o move_v by_o any_o have_v he_o not_o hereby_o contradict_v they_o who_o say_v that_o friend_n drive_v he_o from_o the_o truth_n to_o drive_v a_o man_n from_o the_o truth_n be_v to_o move_v he_o but_o friend_n do_v not_o drive_v he_o from_o the_o truth_n and_o john_n in_o effect_n have_v clear_v they_o from_o such_o a_o aspersion_n say_v though_o he_o be_v toss_v on_o every_o hand_n yet_o not_o move_v by_o any_o if_o not_o move_v by_o any_o then_o not_o remove_v or_o drive_v from_o the_o truth_n by_o friend_n therefore_o john_n in_o effect_n have_v clear_v they_o from_o the_o force_n of_o such_o a_o accusation_n or_o charge_n as_o aforesaid_a and_o whereas_o john_n perrot_n say_v in_o that_o letter_n i_o be_o give_v to_o be_v this_o day_n the_o reproach_n of_o many_o who_o have_v give_v he_o to_o be_v so_o do_v he_o not_o give_v himself_o unto_o the_o delusion_n of_o satan_n to_o be_v a_o occasion_n of_o the_o reproach_n of_o many_o and_o who_o be_v they_o that_o he_o be_v a_o reproach_n unto_o a_o reproach_n he_o be_v and_o one_o that_o be_v give_v to_o change_v both_o ministry_n doctrine_n and_o practice_n which_o god_n have_v lead_v his_o people_n into_o and_o enjoin_v they_o to_o continue_v in_o and_o not_o do_v as_o john_n do_v and_o those_o that_o follow_v he_o for_o their_o example_n have_v do_v therefore_o he_o have_v be_v a_o reproach_n to_o the_o truth_n &_o to_o they_o that_o keep_v their_o first_o love_n who_o abide_v in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o he_o may_v be_v ashamed_a of_o his_o do_n and_o so_o may_v all_o they_o who_o join_v with_o he_o in_o that_o and_o those_o thing_n that_o tend_v to_o division_n and_o separation_n from_o god_n and_o his_o truth_n and_o to_o bring_v a_o reproach_n upon_o they_o who_o continue_v and_o abide_v in_o the_o principle_n doctrine_n practice_n and_o power_n of_o god_n receive_v and_o see_v that_o john_n perrot_n by_o harken_v to_o satan_n and_o in_o yield_v unto_o he_o as_o the_o principal_a cause_n of_o his_o removal_n from_o truth_n who_o be_v thereby_o so_o remove_v be_v the_o instrumental_a cause_n or_o only_a man_n who_o make_v such_o dissension_n among_o friend_n that_o be_v in_o so_o great_a love_n and_o unity_n before_o and_o have_v lead_v many_o into_o mark_n of_o separation_n which_o god_n do_v not_o lead_v his_o people_n into_o and_o see_v that_o john_n do_v become_v a_o reproach_n unto_o many_o as_o aforesaid_a this_o may_v teach_v all_o such_o as_o be_v preserve_v out_o of_o his_o spirit_n and_o the_o deceivable_a working_n and_o way_n of_o satan_n to_o mind_v their_o steadfastness_n to_o and_o continuation_n with_o god_n his_o truth_n and_o people_n in_o that_o and_o those_o thing_n which_o make_v for_o unity_n peace_n and_o reconciliation_n and_o they_o may_v for_o ever_o prize_v the_o love_n mercy_n and_o power_n of_o god_n which_o preserve_v they_o that_o they_o do_v not_o meddle_v with_o uphold_v and_o follow_v the_o fantafy_v and_o imagination_n of_o he_o the_o say_v j●hn_n or_o any_o of_o they_o that_o be_v give_v to_o change_v and_o do_v as_o he_o have_v do_v and_o it_o may_v be_v a_o shame_n to_o they_o who_o either_o follow_v or_o plead_v for_o such_o a_o example_n so_o as_o to_o mind_v the_o light_n of_o christ_n jesus_n to_o move_v they_o to_o consider_v how_o they_o go_v out_o from_o unity_n with_o we_o and_o in_o obedience_n to_o the_o manifestation_n direction_n and_o call_v of_o the_o
