Ans. O thou dark beast and conjurer, who art querying with thy conjured words, that which thou knowes nothing of, and which is out of thy reach and comprehensi∣on; thou blasphemer, dost thou limit Christ to dayes, in taking upon him the form of a Servant, and the seed of Abraham? Is not he the same now as ever he was? And for the union of the God-head and Manhood, as thou calls it, let thy mouth be stopt, for with thee God nor none of his children hath any union, for God ha••h put an utter enmity, betwixt thy seed, thou serpent, and the seed of the woman, and the perfect union with Christ we witnesse, who is the same to day, yesterday and for ever, and therefore are we separate from thee and thy generation.
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.
