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.

the_o apostle_n what_o do_v it_o profit_n though_o a_o man_n say_v he_o have_v faith_n and_o have_v not_o work_n show_v i_o thy_o faith_n without_o thy_o work_n and_o i_o will_v show_v thou_o my_o

that_o you_o be_v my_o disciple_n if_o you_o have_v love_v one_o to_o another_o yet_o it_o be_v also_o true_a which_o the_o apostle_n john_n say_v 14._o we_o know_v that_o we_o be_v translate_v from_o

a_o good_a sign_n of_o god_n forgive_a of_o we_o and_o this_o the_o disciple_n of_o christ_n do_v evidence_n 5._o when_o christ_n say_v unto_o they_o if_o thy_o brother_n trespass_n against_o thou_o seven_o time_n a_o day_n and_o seven_o time_n a_o day_n return_v say_v i_o repent_v thou_o shall_v forgive_v he_o and_o the_o apostle_n say_v unto_o the_o lord_n increase_v our_o faith_n the_o

many_o trespass_n against_o they_o for_o if_o a_o man_n have_v no_o apprehension_n of_o god_n mercy_n in_o forgive_a his_o sin_n he_o can_v have_v no_o true_a seel_v bowel_n of_o mercy_n to_o

the_o same_o that_o we_o can_v but_o forgive_v other_o 9_o for_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v the_o love_n of_o christ_n constrain_v we_o and_o you_o yourselves_o be_v teach_v of_o god_n to_o love_v one_o another_o now_o i_o hope_v by_o this_o you_o will_v be_v convince_v that_o this_o doctrine_n of_o be_v justify_v and_o save_v only_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n be_v no_o doctrine_n of_o carnal_a liberty_n to_o sin_n and_o to_o live_v idle_o without_o do_v good_a work_n but_o contrary_a that_o it_o be_v the_o only_a ground_n and_o foundation_n of_o all_o good_a work_n but_o because_o i_o have_v often_o hear_v some_o of_o your_o teacher_n say_v that_o a_o man_n be_v save_v by_o the_o harken_v to_o the_o light_n within_o he_o and_o obey_v the_o same_o which_o be_v a_o

which_o be_v a_o false_a light_n by_o nature_n teach_v he_o that_o by_o do_v and_o obey_v the_o law_n of_o god_n he_o shall_v be_v save_v i_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o this_o light_n be_v christ_n that_o i_o deny_v but_o say_v it_o be_v the_o light_n that_o be_v natural_o in_o every_o man_n since_o the_o fall_n of_o adam_n for_o as_o adam_n do_v lose_v the_o estate_n of_o innocency_n by_o

of_o the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_n and_o this_o be_v natural_a to_o all_o the_o son_n and_o daughter_n of_o adam_n to_o believe_v that_o they_o shall_v come_v to_o a_o

christ_n answer_v he_o according_a to_o his_o question_n 22._o and_o say_v if_o thou_o will_v enter_v into_o life_n keep_v the_o commandment_n and_o ask_v which_o commandment_n say_v all_o this_o

the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n and_o as_o these_o galatian_n have_v a_o natural_a inclination_n after_o the_o doctrine_n of_o justification_n and_o be_v soon_o draw_v away_o by_o that_o and_o the_o false_a teacher_n so_o be_v there_o the_o same_o in_o all_o man_n natural_o because_o man_n natural_o will_v fain_o sacrifice_v to_o his_o own_o net_n he_o will_v have_v something_o in_o himself_o he_o can_v endure_v to_o be_v rob_v and_o spoil_v of_o all_o his_o good_a work_n he_o will_v fain_o have_v some_o glory_n to_o himself_o like_o the_o pharisee_fw-mi who_o thank_v god_n he_o be_v not_o

free_a justification_n in_o and_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n alone_o without_o work_n take_v away_o all_o glory_n from_o a_o man_n rob_v he_o of_o all_o and_o give_v all_o glory_n to_o
