A89827 An answer to the booke called The perfect Pharisee under monkish holinesse: wherein is layd open, who they are that oppose the fundamentall principles of the doctrine of the Gospel, and the scripture practises, which the authors of that book would cast upon those they call Quakers, but are found to be themselves; who appear to be no ministers of the Gospel, but walke contrary to all that ever Christ sent forth in the scripture, scorning them who live the life of the scriptures, or are brought into the obedience of the same spirit. Published for no other end but to cleare the truth from the slanders of these men, who thereby goe about to deceive the simple, and keep them off from obedience to the truth. By one whom the world calls, James Nayler. Naylor, James, 1617?-1660. 1654 (1654) Wing N261; Thomason E735_2; ESTC R206955 29,772 36

saint_n perfect_a to_o the_o father_n as_o be_v plain_a in_o scripture_n and_o here_o you_o show_v what_o kingdom_n you_o be_v of_o who_o plead_v so_o much_o against_o the_o end_n of_o christ_n come_n and_o in_o your_o 11._o page_n you_o quote_v gal._n 3._o 10._o and_o say_v there_o the_o apostle_n clear_o hold_v forth_o a_o universal_a impossibility_n to_o fulfil_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o

of_o christ_n come_n and_o plead_v for_o continue_v in_o sin_n and_o imperfection_n as_o be_v plain_a in_o this_o you_o call_v your_o confutation_n wherein_o you_o wrest_v and_o twine_v the_o

thing_n that_o richard_n farnesworth_n shall_v say_v that_o no_o unclean_a thing_n can_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n though_o it_o be_v plain_a scripture_n but_o you_o must_v appear_v for_o now_o god_n be_v separate_n the_o precious_a from_o the_o vile_a the_o day_n be_v come_v for_o your_o eleven_o position_n that_o every_o man_n in_o the_o world_n have_v a_o light_n within_o he_o sufficient_a to_o guide_v he_o to_o salvation_n without_o the_o help_n of_o any_o outward_a light_n or_o discovery_n i_o answer_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o only_a light_n and_o there_o be_v

christ_n say_v of_o himself_o i_o be_o the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n he_o that_o follow_v i_o shall_v not_o walk_v in_o darkness_n but_o shall_v have_v the_o light_n of_o life_n john_n 8._o 12._o again_o this_o be_v the_o condemnation_n that_o light_n be_v come_v into_o the_o world_n and_o man_n love_v darkness_n rather_o than_o light_n because_o their_o deed_n be_v evil_a john_n 3._o 19_o now_o this_o light_n shine_v in_o darkness_n but_o 5._o john_n 1._o 4._o 5._o the_o darkness_n comprehend_v it_o not_o and_o here_o be_v you_o who_o call_v this_o light_a a_o natural_a light_n and_o deny_v the_o word_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o prophet_n and_o will_v make_v they_o liar_n like_o you_o and_o all_o the_o world_n shall_v witness_v against_o you_o that_o they_o have_v a_o light_n that_o let_v they_o see_v when_o they_o sin_n which_o if_o they_o do_v mind_n and_o obey_v woule_n lead_v out_o of_o sin_n to_o christ_n and_o all_o who_o have_v obey_v it_o shall_v witness_v it_o and_o this_o light_n of_o christ_n be_v perfect_a in_o its_o measure_n as_o it_o arise_v and_o needs_o no_o outward_a light_n or_o discovery_n and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o this_o light_n be_v so_o hate_a of_o the_o devil_n and_o they_o that_o love_v their_o sin_n because_o the_o devil_n can_v have_v no_o hold_n in_o any_o corner_n of_o the_o heart_n but_o this_o will_v discover_v he_o and_o no_o sin_n can_v be_v commit_v but_o it_o check_v for_o it_o till_o the_o
