A30035	The pilgrim's progress, from Quakerism to Christianity containing, a farther discovery of the dangerous growth of Quakerism, not only in points of doctrine, but also in their politicks, respecting their government, and opposite to it, together with their fund or common bank to support the same : with a remedy proposed for this malady, and the cure of Quakerism : to which is added an appendix, discovering a most damnable plot, contriv'd and carrying on by New-Rome, by an united confederacy, against the reformed religion and professors thereof, as will appear from the designs of their silent meetings, their monthly, quarterly, second-day, six-week, and yearly meeting, all which are particularly herein treated on / by ...

of you may think that these Doctrines of ours point to or aim only at extraordinary Commands as Moses going to Pharoah with some other Temporary Commands my very Doctrine shew it to be the Ten Commandments First By telling the Priest they might as well carry the Ten Commandments to Christ the Consequence of which is that Christ had as much need to learn them as we have Secondly in that we never Recommended the Ten Commandments to our Hearers that they should teach them to their Children and so from Age to Age one Generation after another as the Churches do and ever did both Jewish and Christian Thirdly Because we never read them in our Meetings nor in any one of our Books Recommend them to be so read This therefore may confirm you in our Ancient Testimony which have been to lay them by as a dead Letter Dust Death Serpents Food and Beastly Ware c. and I exhort you to be Bold and Valiant to maintain our Ancient Testimonies and this leads me to the third and last Inference namely Touching Baptism and the Lord's Supper Dear Friends I am now come to give you the Arguments of the Christians for Baptism and the Supper which is founded upon the Letter which our Apostle G. Fox said was Dust and Death viz. Their Sacrament is Carnal their Communion is Carnal a little Bread and Wine so Dust is the Serpent's Meat Their Original is but Dust which is but the Letter which is Death and their Gospel is Dust Matthew Mark Luke and John which is the Letter Again p. 35. A Word to all you Deceivers who deceive the People and Blasphemers who utter forth your Blasphemy and Hypocrisie That tell the People of a Sacrament and tell that it is the Ordinance of God Blush blush and tremble before the Lord God Almighty for dreadful is he that will pour forth his Vengeance upon you You who live in the Witchery and bewitch the People c. News coming up out of the North c. p. 14 35. Dear Lambs I first told you that the Authority the Christians make use of for these Two Ordinances is bottomed upon the Letter I have now shewed you a greater Authority for the disannulling them namely what is said by the Spirit of Truth through our Second Moses And to prove it read the Gospel wrote by me 1659. viz. * * Truth defending the Quakers c. p. 7. That which is spoken from the Spirit of Truth in any then to be sure in Geo. Fox is of as Great Authority as the Scriptures or Chapters are and Greater Thus Friends I first told you what Authority the Christians pleaded for these two Institutions of Baptism and the Supper namely the Scriptures I have likewise told you by what Authority we have laid them aside but lest all of you should not remember the Words the Christians quote not being much used to Scripture they are these Go ye therefore and teach all Nations Baptizing them in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you And lo I am with you always even to the end of the World Matth. 28.19,20 Again And he Christ took Bread and gave Thanks and brake it and gave unto them saying This is my Body which is given for you THIS DO IN REMEMBRANCE OF ME. Likewise also the Cup after Supper saying This Cup is the New-Testament in my Blood which is shed for you Luke 22.19,20 Again Matthew hath it And as they were eating Jesus took Bread and blessed it and brake it and gave to the Disciples and said Take eat this is my Body And he took the Cup and gave Thanks and gave it to them saying Drink ye all of it for this is my Blood of the New-Testament which is shed for many for the Remission of Sins Matth. 26.26,27,28 Again Paul hath it For I received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you That the Lord Jesus the same Night in which he was betrayed took Bread And when he had given Thanks he broke it and said Take eat this is my Body which is broken for you THIS DO IN REMEMBRANCE OF ME. After the same manner also he took the Cup when he had supped saying This Cup is the New-Testament in my Blood THIS DO YE as oft as ye drink it IN REMEMBRANCE OF ME 1 Cor. 11.23,24,25 Beloved I cannot but allow that if the Letter viz. the Scriptures were of greater Authority than our Sayings or that the Words of Matthew Luke and Paul were of greater Authority than our Sayings I should be of the Christians side for nothing in the World is plainer said nor more possitively commanded But Friends in the beginning we were convinced by G. Fox that Matthew Mark Luke and John were Death Dust and Serpents Meat that the Scriptures were Beastly Ware that all that preached out of them were Conjurers that the Letter of the Scripture is Carnal Death and Killeth that such as once told the People of a Sacrament were Witches News coming up c. p. 14 35. Printed 1655. A brief Discovery of a Threefold State c. p. 9. Printed 1653. Saul 's Errand to Damascus c. p. 7. Printed 1654. And that therefore they ought not only to blush but tremble that such as preached Christ without and bid People believe in him as he is in Heaven above were false Ministers Witches Devils c. Smith's Primer p. 8. That it was Blasphemy to call the Scriptures the Word of God Fox's Great Mystery p. 240. Printed 1659. That Circumcision is as much of Force as Water Baptism and the Paschal-Lamb as Bread and Wine for says my dear Brother W. Penn the Continuance of those Two Ordinances as the Lord's Supper and Baptism would have been a Judaizing of the Evangelical Worship and to assert their Continuance would be as much as in us lies to pluck up the Gospel by the Roots Hence says our dear Brother that Appellation Ordinances of Christ I do renounce as Unscriptural and Unevangelical and can testifie from the same Spirit by which Paul Renounced Circumcision that they to wit Water-Baptism and the Supper are to be rejected as not now required c. W. Penn's Reason against Railing c. p. 108 109. And therefore I warn you all to take heed of Apostatizing from our Ancient Testimony as you have it in my Text for what we were convinced of by our Light in the beginning to be Evil to be Death Dust Serpents Meat 't is so still to be Beastly Ware and Conjuration 't is so still and therefore keep up to your Ancient Testimony my dear Lambs in all the Parts of it Ha ha ha hme hme hme silent After a little Silence Will. Bingley c. Friends Friends I am filled I am filled as with new Wine I am ready to burst at the joyful News I have heard to Day respecting our Ancient Testimony And oh
