of God for all such things with the light are condemned and who come to witnesse trembling and quaking the powers of the earth to bee shaken the lustfull to come to be destroyed the scorning and scoffing come to be iudged with the light in it waite to receive power who shakes the earth this power wee owne and faith stands in it which all the world scoffes at the lusty ones the proud ones the presumptuous ones who live in presumption and yet make a profession of the Scr●pture as your Fathers the Pha●ses did who were painted Serpents and the Scribes who had the chiefest places in the assemblies stood praying in the Synagogues called of men Masters which Christ cryed woe against who are not come so farr as the trembling of D●vels which believed and trembled let that Judge you the light and life of the Scripture is seene and made manifest that with it all you scoffers and all you scorners all persecutors raylers are seen take warning all yee powers of the earth how you persecute them whom the world nicknames and calls Quakers who dwells in the eternall power of God left the hand of the Lord be turned against you and yee be all cut off and to you this is the word of
