A84126	A Bermudas preacher proved a persecutor being a just tryal of Sampson Bond's book, entituled, A publick tryal of the Quakers, &c. : Fraught with fallacies, false doctrine, slanders, railings, aspersions, perversions, and other abuses herein detected, disproved and wiped off. : And that the True Christ is owned by the people called Quakers, plainly made manifest.

intend_a matter_n so_o i_o leave_v that_o and_o come_v a_o little_a to_o examine_v the_o proof_n of_o the_o second_o false_a assertion_n viz._n that_o the_o main_a end_n of_o the_o quaker_n meeting_n in_o these_o island_n be_v to_o make_v the_o lord_n christ_n his_o holy_a spirit_n his_o angel_n and_o apostle_n all_o liar_n and_o false_a witness_n of_o god_n now_o let_v any_o reasonable_a man_n judge_n what_o ground_n or_o foundation_n he_o have_v to_o lay_v down_o such_o a_o positive_a assertion_n for_o he_o never_o be_v at_o any_o of_o our_o meeting_n in_o these_o island_n to_o know_v our_o practice_n in_o our_o meeting_n whereby_o he_o may_v discover_v our_o end_n but_o either_o he_o must_v have_v it_o by_o information_n or_o supposition_n or_o consequence_n which_o either_o of_o these_o may_v prove_v true_a or_o false_a and_o therefore_o whether_o the_o one_o or_o the_o other_o it_o be_v too_o slender_a a_o ground_n to_o build_v such_o a_o accusation_n upon_o against_o a_o innocent_a people_n but_o whither_o will_v not_o envy_n lead_v a_o man_n even_o to_o shame_v himself_o but_o let_v we_o see_v how_o he_o will_v prove_v his_o work_n why_o mark._n first_o he_o suppose_v that_o the_o main_a end_n of_o our_o meeting_n be_v to_o declare_v to_o people_n or_o to_o build_v up_o one_o another_o in_o this_o doctrine_n that_o the_o light_n within_o or_o spirit_n of_o christ_n in_o we_o be_v the_o saviour_n this_o he_o suppose_v to_o be_v the_o main_a end_n of_o our_o meeting_n and_o this_o say_v he_o be_v against_o the_o testimony_n of_o christ_n to_o the_o man_n who_o eye_n he_o have_v open_v john_n 9.35_o 36_o 37._o as_o i_o remember_v this_o be_v the_o scriptu_fw-la e_fw-la he_o bring_v when_o the_o blind_a man_n inquire_v who_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v that_o he_o may_v believe_v jesus_n answer_v i_o that_o speak_v unto_o thou_o be_o he_o this_o say_v he_o be_v the_o man_n or_o body_n only_o from_o whence_o he_o do_v infer_v that_o the_o man_n jesus_n consider_v mere_o as_o man_n be_v the_o o●ly_a saviour_n and_o therefore_o say_v he_o the_o quaker_n main_a end_n of_o their_o meeting_n be_v to_o make_v the_o lord_n christ_n a_o lyar._n no●_n see_v what_o weight_n this_o argument_n have_v in_o it_o the_o weight_n must_v lie_v in_o these_o word_n i_o that_o speak_v unto_o thou_o be_o he_o now_o here_o lie_v the_o question_n whether_o in_o these_o word_n he_o mean_v the_o body_n only_o or_o that_o which_o dwell_v in_o the_o body_n also_o which_o be_v the_o godhead_n join_v with_o the_o manhood_n which_o thing_n be_v not_o at_o all_o prove_v at_o that_o time_n from_o the_o scripture_n according_a to_o his_o promise_n and_o so_o do_v falsify_v his_o word_n and_o be_v it_o not_o strange_a that_o the_o priest_n shall_v make_v christ_n body_n to_o speak_v without_o his_o spirit_n but_o now_o that_o people_n may_v not_o be_v leave_v in_o the_o dark_a with_o their_o understanding_n cloud_v consider_v and_o weigh_v serious_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o the_o same_o jesus_n which_o speak_v to_o the_o jew_n in_o the_o forego_n chapter_n 8_o 56._o abraham_n rejoice_v to_o see_v my_o day_n and_o he_o see_v it_o and_o be_v

but_o s._n b._n say_v that_o he_o be_v not_o the_o son_n of_o god_n but_o as_o he_o be_v man_n now_o consider_v how_o grievous_a dark_a this_o man_n be_v read_v the_o scripture_n diligent_o and_o you_o shall_v see_v what_o a_o testimony_n it_o give_v concern_v the_o son_n of_o god_n psal_n 2.7_o the_o lord_n have_v say_v unto_o i_o thou_o be_v my_o son_n this_o day_n have_v i_o beget_v thou_o this_o be_v long_o before_o the_o body_n be_v and_o he_o speak_v here_o of_o the_o time_n present_a this_o day_n have_v i_o beget_v thou_o heb._n 1.2_o where_o he_o say_v that_o god_n have_v in_o

so_o see_v and_o consider_v well_o and_o weigh_v this_o matter_n and_o let_v the_o wise_a in_o heart_n judge_n for_o god_n have_v promise_v afore_o by_o his_o prophet_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n concern_v his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n who_o be_v make_v of_o the_o seed_n of_o david_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n and_o declare_v to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n with_o power_n

do_v infer_v that_o we_o witness_v to_o the_o spirit_n do_v makes_z spirit_n of_o god_n a_o lyar._n let_v we_o see_v what_o weight_n this_o argument_n have_v in_o it_o and_o for_o the_o better_a

be_v reveal_v to_o he_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n that_o he_o shall_v see_v be_v it_o not_o the_o lord_n christ_n if_o the_o body_n bare_o consider_v without_o the_o spirit_n have_v be_v the_o lord_n christ_n then_o the_o jew_n have_v see_v the_o lord_n christ_n for_o they_o only_o see_v the_o body_n and_o crucify_a it_o but_o the_o lord_n christ_n the_o lord_n of_o glory_n be_v veil_v from_o

unbelieve_a jew_n have_v neither_o hear_v the_o father_n voice_n at_o any_o time_n nor_o see_v his_o shape_n john_n 5.37_o and_o so_o it_o be_v clear_a though_o they_o see_v the_o body_n yet_o see_v not_o the_o father_n they_o see_v not_o the_o eternal_a power_n and_o godhead_n as_o they_o do_v who_o eye_n where_o open_v in_o and_o by_o the_o spirit_n as_o old_a simeon_n be_v who_o see_v

may_v be_v bring_v tend_v to_o the_o proof_n of_o what_o i_o have_v before_o assert_v but_o these_o i_o judge_n may_v be_v sufficient_a the_o last_o thing_n i_o find_v myself_o concern_v with_o he_o in_o his_o book_n be_v in_o page_n 69._o where_o he_o say_v i_o call_v on_o he_o to_o make_v good_a the_o three_o part_n of_o the_o charge_n viz_o that_o the_o prime_a principle_n of_o a_o quaker_n be_v the_o same_o which_o be_v hold_v and_o profess_v by_o the_o beast_n that_o paul_n fight_v with_o at_o ephesus_n this_o i_o own_o indeed_o that_o i_o do_v call_v upon_o he_o to_o make_v good_a or_o prove_v as_o in_o his_o paper_n send_v to_o we_o he_o say_v he_o will_v do_v with_o the_o great_a plainness_n and_o clearness_n out_o of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n a_o copy_n of_o which_o paper_n i_o have_v still_o by_o i_o these_o word_n to_o wit_n with_o the_o great_a plainness_n and_o clearness_n i_o find_v he_o have_v leave_v out_o and_o say_v in_o his_o book_n from_o the_o holy_a scripture_n i_o note_v it_o because_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o difference_n between_o prove_v a_o matter_n with_o the_o great_a plainness_n and_o clearnness_n out_o of_o holy_a scripture_n and_o prove_v of_o it_o by_o his_o pretend_a logical_a argument_n and_o cousequence_n because_o the_o one_o make_v a_o thing_n perfect_o appear_v as_o it_o be_v but_o the_o other_o as_o ill_o manage_v and_o misapply_v darken_v people_n mind_n as_o his_o ergo_n it_o be_v so_o or_o consequent_o it_o must_v be_v or_o may_v be_v so_o in_o which_o manner_n of_o prove_v a_o matter_n may_v be_v gross_a err_a as_o i_o have_v already_o show_v where_o he_o say_v of_o i_o that_o i_o never_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o i_o his_o first_o argument_n to_o prove_v that_o be_v thus_o form_v use_v the_o apostle_n word_n in_o the_o 1_o john_n 5.8_o where_o he_o say_v there_o be_v three_o that_o bear_v witness_n in_o earth_n the_o spirit_n and_o the_o water_n and_o the_o blood_n and_o these_o three_o agree_v in_o i_o mean_v himself_o but_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v in_o thou_o do_v not_o agree_v with_o the_o water_n of_o baptism_n nor_o blood_n of_o the_o supper_n for_o thou_o have_v renounce_v both_o the_o sacrament_n therefore_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v not_o in_o thou_o why_o shall_v the_o spirit_n that_o be_v in_o i_o agree_v with_o such_o a_o popish_a phrase_n as_o blood_n of_o the_o supper_n any_o mo●e_n than_o with_o sacrament_n of_o the_o altar_n will_v this_o prove_v that_o i_o never_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o i_o or_o that_o the_o spirit_n of_o

not_o say_v he_o that_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n commit_v sin_n but_z he_o that_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n do_v not_o commit_v sin_n and_o so_o thou_o be_v a_o false_a accuser_n of_o the_o belove_a disciple_n of_o christ_n jesus_n who_o say_v 1_o john_n 1.5_o this_o be_v the_o message_n we_o have_v hear_v and_o declare_v unto_o you_o that_o god_n be_v light_a and_o in_o he_o be_v no_o darkness_n at_o all_o if_o we_o say_v we_o have_v fellowship_n with_o he_o and_o walk_v in_o darkness_n we_o lie_v and_o do_v not_o the_o truth_n but_o if_o we_o walk_v in_o the_o light_n as_o he_o be_v in_o the_o light_n we_o have_v from_o fellowship_n one_o with_o another_o and_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n his_o son_n cleanse_v we_o from_o all_o sin_n but_o if_o we_o say_v we_o have_v no_o
