Ans. Here thou polluted beast hath made it manifest what thou hast been driving at all this while in thy queries, which is, that thou would have corruption and filthines to be accounted righteous in Gods sight, that so thou might lye and wallow in thy sins & filthinesse, but Iohn saith, that he that commits sin is of the divell: for the divell sin∣neth from the beginning, and for this purpose the Son of God was made manifest, that he might destroy the works of the divell, and thou man of sin would have it to stand, but those that loves God keeps his Commandements, and they are not grie∣vous; and God doth not accept any where there is any failing, or who do not ful∣fill the Law, and answer every demand of justice, and he doth reserve the unjust unto the day of judgement to be punished, 2 Pet. 2 9. and chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleannesse, and there thou art.
Ansvvers to severall queries put forth to the despised people called Quakers, by Philip Bennett, who cals himself a minister of Christ, but is found a deceiver; answered by them to whom they were directed. Also, ansvvers to severall other subtil queries put forth by one Iohn Reeve, who lives in the City of London, who cals himself the last messenger and witnesse unto the true God, but is found a false witnesse, and a lyar, and a perverter of the right way of God. / Answered by Edward Burrough, and Francis Howgill, who are witnesses unto the truth against this subtil serpent-like generation.
