A70157 A just defence and vindication of Gospel ministers and Gospel ordinances against the Quakers many false accusations, slanders and reproaches. In ansvver to John Horwood his letter, and E.B. his book, called, A just and lawful tryal of the ministers and teachers of this age, and several others. Proving the ministers calling and maintenance just and lawful, and the doctrine of perfection by free justification, preached by them, agreeable to the scriptures. VVith the Quakers objections answered. And the Quakers perfection by hearkning to, and obeying a light within them, proved contrary to the scriptures. And their practices in ten particulars proved contrary to the commands and examples of Christ and his apostles. By a lover of gospel ministers and gospel ordinances.

forget_v those_o thing_n which_o be_v behind_o and_o reach_v forth_o unto_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v before_o i_o press_v towards_o the_o mark_n for_o the_o price_n of_o the_o high_a call_v of_o

which_o every_o christian_a have_v in_o and_o by_o christ_n by_o which_o alone_o he_o be_v justify_v be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v we_o be_v make_v the_o

than_o may_v it_o be_v lose_v as_o adam_n be_v but_o that_o conceit_n of_o you_o of_o be_v as_o righteous_a in_o ourselves_o as_o adam_n be_v in_o paradise_n you_o quaker_n learn_v of_o the_o

of_o christ_n alone_o which_o righteousness_n apprehend_v by_o faith_n do_v draw_v the_o soul_n out_o in_o love_n to_o god_n in_o christ_n which_o love_n of_o christ_n do_v constrain_v they_o to_o
