Lord and reads thy book wil avoid thee and it and have no fellowship with such unfruitful workers and works of Darkness thou hast forgotten judge not and thou hypocrite first cast out the beam thy envious Spirit which fomes like the sea casting up filth swells beyond its bounds but thou art limited as all thy impious generation have been and by the power of the Lord are we preserved from thy errors and hellish blasphemy and thy railing and slandering return upon thy felt fruitless tree upon which no grapes is gathered Thou sayest what Paul said to the Galatians the same thou wilt say to the giddy headed people of the Church of England Reply The true Church is in God builded upon the true rock and is not giddy-headded here thou manifests the fruits of the Teachers who so long hath taught and had so much for teaching and the Church of England yet giddy-headded but the Lord is comming to gather his people into the true Fold from the mouths of all Idol Shepheards and to teach his people himself that they may be established in righteousness Thou sayest Paul taught the Romanes and in them us first that it is the imputed Righteousness of Christ onely that makes us just in the sight of God Secondly that our election is of Gods free Grace Thirdly that we are justified only by faith in the sight of God without good works fourthly that the scriptures is of divine authority Reply Silence flesh before the Lord upon the children of disobedience shall the wrath of God be revealed own thy Portion what Paul said to such as thee thou must witness a change before that which Paul wrote to the Romanes be to thy condition the Lord is our righteousness and our justification and by his grace we are saved who hath elected us and chosen us in Christ Jesus who hath all power and authority committed unto him and upon whose shoulders the government is laid but from thy earthly wisdom is the election and the faith hid who art without good works and belyes the Apostle and ignorant art of the Letter which kils Fiftly Thou sayest no man since the fall of Adam can perfectly fulfil the Law of God in this Life and therefore cannot merit except it be wrath Reply For meriting the wrath it s thy own but Christ Jesus since the fall of Adam hath perfectly fulfilled the Law of God and there is Salvation in no other and the righteousness of the Law is fulfilled in us who walk not after the flesh but after the spirit but by the works of the Law no flesh shall be justified for the Commandment which was ordained unto life wrought death if thou can hear thou may In thy sixt and seventh thou saist that he that hath received a Ministry should wait on his Ministry and take heed to fulfil it and that every soul must be subject to the higher power and yeild obedience to every Ordinance of theirs if not contrary to Gods word Reply Thou slanders us and rails upon us who hath received a Ministry from God waits to fulfil it and thou receives such as come in their own name who are made by the wil of man against such do we bear witness by the power of God unto which our souls is subject for conscience sake and to every ordinance for the Lords sake which is not contrary to Gods word Thou sayest thou art afraid that the Lord hath a controversie with the Church of England Reply Fearfulness surprizeth the heart of the hypocrite and a controversie hath the Lord with you because of your iniquities misery is coming upon you fearful ones and unbelievers who are no Church of Christ but a Synagogue of Satan who say they are Iews and are not but are a giddy-headed Church as thou confessest Thou sayest Make not the light within a rule to walk by and yet saith sollow the light within and teacher within what else Reply The light discovers thee to be in confusion they that walk in the light stumbles not and they who love the Light bring their deeds to it and believes in the light but their deeds are evil who ha●e it and walk not in it and there is thy condemnation Thou sayest He that entreth not in by the door to wit a true and lawful call but climbeth up some other way the same is a thief and a robber and such are the quakers but he that entreth in by the door is the shepherd of the Sheep and such are your ancient Divine● Reply Here thou as in other places art a false accuser and a perverter of the Scriptures your Divines is not the Shepheard there thou art a blasphemer who would set up fal●e Christs the true Shepheard laid down his life for the sheep and he is the door and them whom thou slanderest enters in at the door where no thief nor no diviner can enter nor no hireling which the true Shepheard cryed against And as thou sayest Thou will speak something to our principles first for judging Reply Thou hast judged us to be deceivers and seducers and false accusations against the truth thou hast brought and against some in particular naming that Iohn Audland was a child of the Devil and yet thou hast confessed thou never saw me nor heard me but thou hast not proved wherein which I charge thee to do publikely or own thy condemnation for thy slandring lying and backbiting thy laying that it is so doth not make it to be so and that which thou cals a confutation confutes thyself but proves nothing against the Saints judging them whom they saw and discerned to be unlearned for when an unbeliever came in or one that was unlearned he was judged of all and the thoughts of his heart made manifest and this honor have all the Saints to bind Kings in chains and to execute upon the heathen all the judgments written and the Scripture we own and the Saints life by which thou art judged and with the light condemned who judgest and acts against the Saints with that mind that is for judgment The second is that they are not true Ministers which are called by mans Ministery or by a mediate call from man and this thou goest about to confute by saying that Christ ordained apostles and disciples And the Holy Ghost said Seperate me Barnabas and Saul for the work of the Ministry and that there was Elders ordained in the Church and the like Reply These things proves nothing to thy mediate cal or mans Ministery Christ is not born by the wil of man and holy men spoke as they were moved by the Holy Ghost and no prophesie came by the will of man Paul a Minister and Apostle not by the will of man and that which is highly esteemed amongst men is abomination in the sight of God and there is thy mediate call and mans ministery which the Scriptures speaks not of what Christ did and the Saints did was by the power of
