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.

Fourthly, that that very man who did go away from his Disciples into heaven, will come again personally the same man the second time, and before him shall be gathered all Nations, and he shall judge them for their sins; and take his to himself, who shall soul and body be with him to all eternity; these things, (I say) thou couldest not own, though they are the truth of God. But leaving thee to the great God, who will give the according thy works, in this as in other things: I shall come to thy Answers to my Queries.
