A vindication of the book called, Some Gospel-truths opened; according to the Scriptures, and the opposition made against it by Edward Borough, a professed Quaker, (but proved an enemy to the truth) examined and confuted by the word of God. And also, the things that were then laid down, and declared to the world by me, are a second-time born witness to, according to truth: with the answer of Edward Borough to the queries then laid down in my book reproved. And also, a plain answer to his queries, given in simplicity of soul; and is now also presented to the world, or who else may read, or hear them; to the end (if God will) that truth may be discovered thereby. / by John Bunyan ...A vindication of the book called, Some Gospel-truths opened; according to the Scriptures, and the opposition made against it by Edward Borrough, a professed Quaker, (but proved an enemie to the truth) examined and confuted by the word of God.

God sending his own Son in the likeness of si• full flesh, and for sin condemned sin in the flesh. That is, he was condemned in the flesh that he took on him of the Virgin Ma y, Rom. 8.3. And again, he bore our sins in his own body on the tree, which was the Cross on mount Calvary.

Jesus also (saith the Apostle) that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered: Where? Not in any believer, but without the gate of Jerusalem, Heb. 13.12. How say you, do you really believe, that at that time when Jesus did hang on the Cross without Jerusalems gate, even at that time he did give the justice of God a full and complete satisfaction, for all the sins of all believers, that have been formerly, or are now, or hereafter shall be? Or do you look upon Jesus at that time to be but a shadow, or type of somewhat that was afterwards to be done within? Answer plainly, yea or no; that the simple may understand you.
