B23179 A fevv plain words to be considered by those of the army, or others that would have a Parliament that is chosen by the voyces of the people, to govern the three nations. Wherein is shewed unto them according to the Scriptures of truth, that a Parliament so chosen, are not like to govern for God, and the good of his people. Also something to the other part of the army, and the new committee, who turned out, or ownes the turning out of the late Parliament. / From a lover of the truth of God, and all his creatures, George Fox the younger.

custom_n of_o england_n to_o call_v and_o choose_v many_o wise_a man_n after_o the_o flesh_n &_o many_o mighty_a and_o noble_a man_n so_o call_v to_o be_v parliament_n man_n that_o so_o we_o see_v the_o call_n &_o choose_v of_o parliament_n in_o england_n have_v be_v exact_o contrary_a to_o god_n calling_n &_o choose_v read_v 1_o cor._n 1.26_o &_o therefore_o such_o parliament_n be_v not_o like_a to_o act_v for_o god_n &_o the_o good_a of_o his_o people_n but_o against_o they_o but_o that_o which_o god_n have_v call_v and_o choose_v shall_v confound_v and_o bring_v to_o nought_o the_o wise_a and_o the_o mighty_a and_o the_o noble_a thing_n so_o call_v of_o the_o world_n and_o this_o the_o lord_n will_v bring_v to_o pass_v that_o so_o no_o flesh_n may_v glory_v in_o his_o presence_n read_v 1_o cor._n 1.27_o 28_o 29._o and_o likewise_o the_o choose_n of_o parliament_n man_n according_a to_o the_o custom_n of_o england_n which_o be_v call_v its_o birthright_n stand_v in_o respect_n of_o person_n and_o not_o in_o equality_n for_o the_o rich_a covetous_a oppress_a man_n who_o oppress_v the_o poor_a they_o have_v the_o only_a power_n to_o choose_v lawmaker_n and_o they_o will_v choose_v to_o be_v sure_o such_o as_o will_v uphold_v they_o in_o their_o oppression_n and_o the_o poor_a man_n that_o be_v oppress_v though_o he_o have_v no_o power_n allow_v he_o to_o choose_v yet_o he_o must_v be_v subject_a to_o the_o law_n which_o they_o make_v who_o be_v his_o oppressor_n or_o else_o he_o be_v account_v a_o rebel_n so_o what_o right_o think_v you_o be_v the_o oppress_a like_a to_o have_v when_o his_o oppressor_n choose_v the_o man_n that_o be_v to_o be_v judge_n of_o his_o cause_n and_o thus_o the_o rich_a man_n oppress_v the_o poor_a and_o draw_v they_o before_o their_o

of_o parliament_n according_a to_o england_n custom_n and_o how_o unlike_o it_o be_v that_o a_o parliament_n so_o choose_v shall_v make_v england_n a_o free_a nation_n see_v the_o great_a oppressor_n of_o the_o land_n viz._n priest_n and_o lawyer_n and_o the_o great_a wicked_a covetous_a persecute_v man_n be_v so_o much_o concern_v in_o the_o choose_n they_o so_o that_o if_o parliament_n so_o choose_v shall_v continue_v the_o people_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v not_o like_a to_o be_v set_v free_a from_o their_o oppression_n though_o parliament_n and_o ruler_n have_v be_v make_v to_o do_v many_o good_a thing_n by_o a_o power_n which_o many_o of_o they_o scarce_o know_v but_o the_o lord_n have_v a_o further_a thing_n yet_o to_o do_v in_o the_o nation_n than_o either_o protector_n or_o

and_o if_o they_o will_v not_o do_v his_o work_n in_o break_v every_o yoke_n and_o let_v the_o oppress_a go_v free_a god_n will_v assure_o break_v they_o with_o a_o great_a destruction_n than_o come_v
