A89836 A discovery of the man of sin, acting in a mystery of iniquitie, pleading for his kingdom, against the coming of Christ to take away sin. Or, an answer to a book set forth by Tho. Weld of Gateshead, Richard Prideaux, Sam. Hamond, Will. Cole, and Will. Durant of Newcastle. By way of reply to an answer of James Nayler's to their former book, called The perfect Pharisee: who call themselves ministers of Christ, but are found ministring for the kingdom of Antichrist. Published for clearing the innocency of the truth from their malicious slanders, and discovering their deceits. By one whom the world calls James Nayler. Naylor, James, 1617?-1660. 1654 (1654) Wing N274; Thomason E738_16; ESTC R202155 50,411 56

position_n that_o the_o scripture_n be_v not_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o a_o declaration_n of_o the_o condition_n of_o they_o that_o speak_v they_o forth_o and_o in_o your_o reply_n you_o allege_v

the_o spirit_n of_o the_o world_n for_o such_o can_v try_v the_o spirit_n neither_o with_o the_o letter_n nor_o without_o it_o as_o i_o have_v former_o prove_v neither_o do_v christ_n send_v they_o to_o try_v his_o spirit_n when_o he_o bid_v they_o search_v the_o scripture_n nor_o do_v the_o berean_o try_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n but_o search_v the_o word_n which_o paul_n speak_v from_o those_o scripture_n that_o declare_v of_o christ_n and_o here_o by_o the_o visible_a eye_n they_o try_v visible_a word_n but_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v invisible_a and_o can_v be_v try_v by_o

god_n will_v set_v up_o carnal_a judge_n over_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n when_o the_o scripture_n say_v the_o natural_a man_n understand_v not_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n and_o you_o confess_v the_o eternal_a spirit_n to_o be_v the_o trier_n of_o spirit_n though_o former_o you_o seem_v to_o deny_v it_o but_o say_v your_o question_n be_v what_o the_o saint_n have_v to_o try_v the_o spirit_n by_o i_o answer_v by_o the_o same_o spirit_n by_o which_o they_o be_v sanctify_v and_o prove_v in_o scripture_n where_o the_o saint_n be_v command_v to_o try_v the_o spirit_n by_o any_o other_o thing_n and_o here_o see_v your_o confusion_n for_o the_o letter_n be_v dead_a and_o speak_v nothing_o for_o the_o apostle_n say_v they_o serve_v god_n in_o the_o newness_n of_o life_n and_o not_o in_o the_o

spirit_n of_o god_n in_o all_o age_n have_v make_v use_n of_o the_o letter_n against_o the_o deceitful_a doctrine_n as_o we_o do_v at_o this_o day_n and_o yet_o this_o letter_n be_v not_o the_o judge_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o they_o for_o this_o be_v to_o set_v the_o letter_n above_o the_o spirit_n and_o whereas_o you_o accuse_v we_o to_o exclude_v the_o scripture_n because_o we_o say_v the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v the_o original_n of_o they_o which_o slander_n be_v false_a for_o hereby_o we_o confess_v and_o own_v the_o scripture_n to_o be_v give_v forth_o by_o the_o holy_a
