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.

Ans. There are a company of dumb dogs that are crept into the Nation, that love, give ye, and desire to bear rule by their means; and they are every one for his gain from their quarter. Secondly, there are a company of wolves crept out also, having warped themselves about with sheeps clothing, and these are both alike abominable to the Lord Neither can a man give a more right description of a false prophet, than the Prophets and Christ with his Apostles did give, therefore examine your selves.
