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

contrary_n which_o we_o witness_v than_o those_o who_o obey_v his_o command_n not_o to_o salute_v any_o luke_n 10._o 4._o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o breach_n of_o it_o which_o to_o affirm_v be_v to_o

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
