Seasonable advice concerning Quakerism or, a short account of some of the Quaker-Errours, both in principle and practice. Wherein are contain'd, some blasphemous expressions, and several new quotations taken out of the Quakers most approved authors, and never yet before mention'd by any that have wrote against them. Fitted for the meanest capacities. Written chiefly for the use of a private parish, and now made publick for the benefit of the unlearned members of the Church of England, who have any Quakers of Quakerly-Meetings amongst them, or in their neighbour-hood. By J. Stillingfleet, rector of Beckingham in Lincolnshire.

A confutation of Quakerism or a plain proof of the falshood of what the principal Quaker writers (especially Mr. R. Barclay in his Apology and other works) do teach concerning the necessity of immediate revelation in order to a saving Christian faith; the Being, Nature and Operation of the Pretended Universal Light within; its Striving with Men, moving them to Prayer, and calling them to the Ministry; Regeneration, Sanctification, Justification, Salvation and Union with God; the Nature of a Church; the Rule of Faith; Water-Baptism; and the Lord's-Supper. Diverse Questions also concerning Perfection, Christ's Satisfaction, the Judge of Controversies, &c. are briefly stated and resolved. By Thomas Bennet, M. A. Rector of St. James's in Colchester, and late Fellow of St. John's College in Cambridge.
