aske for them all and returne us an answer if he please But however Godwilling I shall to stop his boasting returne in short an answer to his onely spareing the labour of setting most of his downe but those that would compare the answers and Queries may take his book and see them and in this see an answer to them for the boaster Henry Hagger in his proud challenge faith thus much by Henry Hagger and as he saies a setvant of the Lord Jesus Christ and the congregations of the Saints which a desire of an answer by any who will or can But this I say that lyers slanderers and false accusers and such as joynes and partakes with them helping Antichrist to carry on his designe in such an evill work of falshood and deceipt and by a number of lies 70. and odd makes opposition against the truth they are no Servants of Jesus for he doth not imploy his in such an evil work neither are they sanctified and so of the Congregation of Saints but enemies to them and the work of sanctification c. Yet such a one is Henry Haggar who hath joyned himself with Pollard and backed his number of lies slanders false accusations and therefore he is no Servant of Christ but of Antichrist and the Congregations of Saints are ashamed of him and denies him and Pollard and also denies the workes of their hands proceeded from their evil hearts which long hath lien hid but now is brought to light which manifests their Antichristian spirit in their book of slanders with the number of lies as it doth appear and is left to the view that others may thereby take warning and feare And further it is considered and known that false Apostles were and are deceitful workers in that work of iniquity c. so are lyars slanderers and false accusers c. But such are Thomas Pollard and Henry Hagger and deceitful workers c. as it is manifest by their book of lies and wicked deceitful mischievous slanders therefore they are false Apostles that so acts Antichrists part under a refined subtlety and are such false accusers and deceitful workers 1 Cor. 11.13 c. Rom. 1.29 c. 2 Thes 2.7 c. 2. Consideration I answer that it is considered and known that the false Prophets that come to deceive did as you do preach the words of others and say thus faith the Lord when he never spoke to them Jer. 23. and they preached the Letter as you do and their brain imaginations but knew not the spirit and word that were as a fire and a hammer Jer. 23.29 c. which were within in the true Prophets and were as a fire in the bones Jer. 20.9 which words within you being ignorant of you preach the Letter of the Scripture and others words with your brain Imaginations added thereunto and are not guided by the same spirit from which it did proceed as your lies maketh it manifest and therefore you ate like the false Prophets also that as thou sayes pretended to come in the name of the Lord to preach their lies as you have done yours and therefore in that you are considered and known to be as the false Prophets were that said thus saith the Lord when he never spoke to them And as John Griffith in that Book called the Gospel-faith collected into 30 Articles and subscribed with the names of Thomas Lover John Foxwell John Parret Francis Smith John Griffith who in that Book called the Baptized Believers Faith or a Voice from the word of the Lord c. hath taken upon him to prophesie lies in the name of the Lord and the ground of his Prophecy is from the imaginations and corruptions of his own heart who speaks from that and from the Letter and the words of others and not from the voice of the Lord unto him and where did any of the true Prophets take upon them to go and prophecy to a people from anothers writings when they were not called by the Lord and sent so to say by his spirit and word within for they spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost and that was from the spirit and word within 2 Pet. 1.21 and the spirit of Christ was within them 1 Pet. 1.11 and they were not sent by a printed Book to preach and prophecy but by the Lord God and his spirit Isay 48.16.17 and therefore they spoke and prophecyed truly that were so taught called and sent by the Lord God and his spirit moving in them but the false Prophets took the words of others without them and spoke from them a divination of their own brain as John Griffith hath done and spoke not from the word and voice of the Lord God and his spirit within and therefore they prophesied lies in the name of the Lord and were reproved for it c. as this John Griffith the false Prophet is that speaks the brain imaginations and divinations of his own heart from others words and not from the mouth of the Lord as the false Prophets did and therefore the said John Griffith is a false Prophet as such was which the Lord was against therefore he is against him that hath prophesied lies in his name as they did Jer. 23.21 30. 31 32. verses The beginning of John Griffith's false Prophecy where he prophesieth lies in the name of the Lord saying thus saith the Lord to thee Oh Quaker thou art fleshly minded John Griffith that is thy lying spirit that hath told thee so and thou that pretends to speak so from the Scriptures without thee and calls thy saying a word from the voice of the Lord I charge thee in the presence of the Lord to shew that Scripture that faith O Quaker thou art fleshly minded or else I charge thee here to be a lier both of the Scripture and of the Lord for such as walk in obedience to the word and spirit of the Lord are not fleshly and carnally but spiritually and peaceably minded Rom. 8.6 Phil. 2.5 1 Cor. 2.15.16 But they that walk in obedience to the word and spirit of the Lord and are born again not of corruptible seed but incorruptible by the word of God which liveth and abideth for ever 1 Pet. 1.22.23 and are in Covenant with God though reproached by the name of Quakers c. 1 Pet. 4.14 for the name of Christ c. are spiritually and peaceably minded and not as John Griffith hath said therefore he hath taken upon him to prophesie or publish a lie in the name of the Lord And the said John Griffith in his second lie and false Prophesie page 2. saith Oh fleshly minded men whom the God of this world hath blinded that is a third lie because you believe not that is a fourth lie for such as walk in the light of the Gospel 2 Cor. 4.4,5,6,7 and are born of God and in the faith which purifies the heart and overcomes the world as such was Act 15.9.1 John

5.4.5 c. they ate not as John Griffith falsely saith and these Scriptures and the faith and birth spoken of in them and the light we also own who walk in it and are not as John Griffith saith therefore he hath prophesied or spoken other three lies and more also in the name of the Lord and hath manifest thereby his false Prophecy and himself to be a false Prophet as it is considered of and known And he goes on with his lies and speaks them in pretence of the name of the Lord saying and saith falsely thus saith the Lord ye have said it is in vain to serve God and what Profit is it that we have kept his Ordinances c. John Griffith when didst thou hear us say so here thou false Prophet that art without proof for thy lies I testifie unto thee from the witness for God that the Lord never so said unto thee nor sent thee to prophecy those lies in his name neither didst thou ever hear us and the righteous seed say as thou falsely hath done and therefore thou art one that prophecies lies in pretence of the Lord who never said that he would fire root and branch of the righteous seed though reproached by the name of Nazerens or Quakers c. as thou sayes and so thy lies and false Prophecies hath laid thee open and made thee manifest to be a false Prophet And we who fear the living God and serve him that keep his Ordinances and walk humbly or mournfully before him do testifie against thy lies and false Prophecies whom thou and the Serpents seed revilest and reproachest under the nick-name of Quakers And since we knew God and his word Oracle Worship and Ordinances never said that it was in vain to serve him and therefore thou hast added thy fifth lye Neither did we say that are in Covenant with God that it was in vain to keep his Ordinances since they were delivered unto us God is our witness which witness is greater than the witness of men 1 John 5.9.10 c. therefore in that thou hast prophecied falsely and added thy sixth lye Neither did we say nor ever declare it to thee that it was in vain to walk humbly or mournfully before the Lord in that as well as the other God is our witness before whom we appeal and to the truth of it his ●pirit doth witness with ours that obey him and walk humbly before him Rom. 8.14,15,16 And therefore John Griffith thy prophecy is false and in that thou hast added thy seventh lye in thy false Prophecy And therefore from the spirit of the Lord in obedience to the word of the Lord this do I declare and testifie which shall stand a witness against thee and thy lying and false Prophecy wherein thou sayes we are spiritually proud when we are not for that is by us denied as well as all other pride and therefore in that thou hast prophecied falsely and added thereunto thy eighth lye Wherein thou goes on in lying saying that we are proud Pharisees and Hypocrits c. but hath not so proved it therefore thou hast added thy ninth lye Thou sayes that we boast of our light within but boasting we deny and all Pharisaicallism and Hypocrisie and that is thy tenth lye Yet the light we own and follow else we should deny Christ who is the light of the world that lighteth every man that commeth into the world John 1.9 and such as follow him as he hath said are by the light led out of darkness into the light of life as the Scripture declareth which we witness with Col. 1.27 John 8.12 Thou sayes in thy false Prophecy that we neglect the weightier matters of the Law that is thy eleventh lye And the Law it self that is thy twelveth lye p. 3. For righteousness mercy and true judgement c. is the weighty matters of the Law for he hath shewed it unto us and therefore walking humbly before him and doing justly loving mercy c. Mica 6.8 we do not neglect neither the weightier matters of the Law nor the Law it self Rom. 8. for the righreousness of the Law is fulfilled in us that walk not after darkness and the flesh but after the spirit and spiritual light and Law within which doth condemn unrighteousness and sin Rom. 8.2,3,4 as the Scripture witnesseth And thou sayes amongst the rest of thy lies that the Scriptures is the Rule of faith and conversation when Christ and his Spirit is both the way and guid into all truth John 14.6 John 16.13 and so into faith Heb. 12.2 and a holy Converstion for without me saith he ye can do nothing then not believe without him and he is both the Authour and finisher of faith that calleth also into an holy Conversation for saith the Apostle as he that hath called you is holy so be you holy in all manner of cōversation 1 Pet. 1.13,14,15 Take notice of thy contradiction to Scripture and thy error in that who hath thereby added thy thirteenth lye Thou sayes we erre not knowing the Scriptures nor power of God that shall stand for thy selfe which is also thy fourteenth lye For the Scriptures are they that testifie of Christ and that we know as they also witness of themselves where Christ saith search them but he is the life and ye will not come to him that ye might have life that are such enemies to him like their example that were lyars and false accusers like you And as the Scriptures testifie of Christ John 5.39.40 so do they also testifie of the power of God unto salvation Rom. 1.16 which power we know and witness unto and in with the Scriptures that testifie of it and therefore thou John Griffith hath told that fourteenth lie And thou sayes we are they that perish page 3. but such as are kept by the power of God and are thereby saved do not perish which power and salvation by and in it through the Lord Jesus we witness and so do not perish as thou falsely saith and therefore thou art charged with that lie which makes the number fifteen Thou sayes that the Scriptures without faith in Christ for thou leaves that out is able to make a man wise to salvation and to furnish him thoroughly to every good work page 3. when it is Christ that doth it and thou hast belied the Scriptures for thou hast left out the chief and moving cause to wit Christ and faith in him and sayes the Scriptures are able to do it when the Apostle tells Tymothy that the holy Scriptures were able to make him wise to salvation c. Through faith in Christ Jesus 2 Tim. 3.15,16,17 and he saith that Christ is the giver and so both the Authour and finisher of faith Heb. 12.2 and the Apostle prayed that the Colossians might be strengthened and so furnished according to the working of his glorious power giving thanks unto the Father which made them meet to be partakers of the
