The Innocency of the righteous seed of God cleared from all slanderous tongues and false accusers IN answer to a printed paper set forth by Frederick Woodall wherein he goes about to render the truth of God odious and by a clack of maliciousness to cover those lies which he hath formerly published but in the light of God I do him see and comprehend and in it he is made manifest to all the children of light to be no minister of Christ and to the light of Christ in all consciences I speak that in it they may read these things which from the light is declared that so occasion may be cut off from all who seek occasion against the truth that so peoples minds may not be Insenced against the truth of God by his refuge of lyes set forth in his paper called naturall and spirituall light distinguished But in the light of Christ which is but one which is not naturall but spirituall is he seen to be naturall and his distinction to be naturall and so in the light the naturall man with his naturall doctrine and naturall distinction is denied and Christ Jesus we do witnesse who is the true light which lighteth every one that cometh into the world John 1. 9. I am come a light into the world that whosoever believeth in me should not abide in darkness John 12. 46. and this is the condemnation of the world that light is come into the world and men loved darkness rather then light because their deeds were evill Joh. 3. 19. 20. 21. Now all you who are enlightned by Christ Jesus and can read in the light and with understanding to you there is no occasion of stumbling but all stumbling and the occasion of it is in them who hates the light and calls it naturall which light is Christ for him a witnesse I am against all such who deny Christ to be the true light which lighteth every on that cometh into the world Who is of the world called Richard Hubberthorne NOw as in answer to thee Frederick Woodall who hath put a stumbling block before the eyes of many by thy lies and deceipt to keep them from receiving the pure truth of God which the Lord is now spreading abroad and making manifest to gather to himself his own from the mouths of all false sheppards that Jesus Christ the true sheppard they may come to witnesse who is the true light and is not naturall as thou would make him to be nor that light in the conscience is not naturall which Jesus Christ hath enlightned every one with all but all who in it dwell shall witnesse against thee and thy malicious spirit who hath uttered forth thy bitternesse and venome against those who walk in the light and who witnesse the truth of God in the life and power of it and against all false accusers In the beginning of thy Epistle to the Reader thy enmity thou utters forth against those who for the name of Christ do bare his reproach in the world in whom the Scripture is fullfilled which saith they shall speak all manner of evill of you falsely for my name sake and thou art one of them who art speaking evill and encouraging others to speak evil against those whom thou and the rest of the scorners call Quakers and calls them a nest of stinging wasps and saith that they have leavened a dear Brother and Sister of thine and made them prosylites unto them This accusation is returned back again upon thy own I answ head for the poison of asps is found under thy tongue and forth of the venome doth proceed as all who hath understanding may see and discern and those whom thou calls thy dear Brother and Sister are made able in the light of Christ to testifie against thee and thy ly and to witnesse that they are brought out of the prosilites condition and out of the leaven of the false profits and false teachers which they were in so long as they followed thy doctrine but now that doctrine they do see whichdoth leaven and draw peoples minds from the light of Christ within them and so makes prosilites and children of the devill but in the light of Christ art thou and all that uphold that doctrine seen and denied In the first page of thy paper thou would make people believe that thou makes no defence against my reply to thy answers and yet in the second page thou replies against mine concerning the tenth Query and charges me in reputing thee the authour or father of aly in returning to thee again thy own words in answer to the tenth Query which words are these it is intollerable that Christ should be the prince of peace I answer let every on who hath a desire to know whether this be so read thy own words in thy printed paper in thy answer to the tenth Query in the twelft page whether these be not thy own words the tenth is Intollerable that Christ may be the Prince of peace and here to all whose eyes are opened may see that thoudenies that Christ may be the Prince of peace and saith it is Intollerable and the rest of thy words which are in answer to that Query are full of confusion and all who reads them may see it so I leave thee to be Judged of all condemned of all who in the light of Christ do see thy confusion which proceeds out of thy own mouth 'T is a previledge we have cause to blesse God for every Priest day viz. that unto us are committed the Oracles of God Here I charge the to prove when ever the oracles of Answ God was committed unto thee or to the Priests of England unto the Jews they were committed which was before Christ came in the flesh and they who had the oracles of God committed unto them did seek to kill and crucifie the Son of God as you the priest of England who go in the way of Cain and after the error of Balaam do now seek to destroy the Son of God where he is made manifest and the Oracles of God were never committed unto you nor the ministration of the Gospell but in the steps of those you are found who ever persecuted the righteous seed of God as you have made it manifest in this generation And again thou art bringing scriptures to prove the letter to be the word of God which Scriptures will witnesse against thee for the Scripture saith that God is the word John 11. and thou art diminishing from some and adding to others and perverting the Scriptures to thy own ends thou brings that scripture in Titus 2. 10. 11. 12. 13. and these words thou speaks from them this is the grace of God bringing salvation when the Apostle saith for the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men teaching us that denying ungodliness and worldly lusts wee should live soberly righteously and Godly in this present world and here though thou
