A44504 Truth's triumph over deceit, or, A further demonstration that the people called Quakers be deceivers, and such as people ought to accompt accursed in their doctrines and principles in vindication of a former proof of that charge, made good against them, from the sorry shifts and evasions from it, and cavils of George Whitehead against it, in a pamphlet of his, called The Quakers no deceivers / written by John Horne ... as a further preservation of people from following any of their pernitious principles ...

pharisee_n reject_v the_o counsel_n of_o god_n and_o be_v not_o baptize_v of_o he_o mat._n 3.5_o 6._o with_o luke_n 7.30_o i_o distinguish_v the_o people_n both_o from_o his_o friend_n and_o
