But while they are obstinate, and pertinacious, in maintaining Lies, and Untruths, they ought to be confuted, as the man was, that denyed Snow to be white.

For what kindness or respect can they have for the Scriptures, but such as men carry to Topicks or common places, whence they draw Arguments to impugne others, or defend themselves with. For they do not look upon the Word as their Rule, seing (as they dream) they have a Light within them, beyond that more sure Word of Prophesie, which the Aopstle Peter prefers to a voice from Heaven. Nay, they have so little veneration for the Scriptures, that they will not suffer them to be called the Word of GOD, contrary to many express places of the Scripture; as","proofs":["1 Kings 16:12"]}]}]}
