The immediate voyce which speaks within, which we never knew.

Pr. And he saith,  there is an immediate voyce which speaks within, which we have never heard, nor do we know it within ourselves experimentally, and we believe and hope that we never shall know it, &c. page 30.

Answ. And so shews, that they never knew the spirit of the Father speaking within them, but follow their own dreams and spirits, and stop their ear against that of God in them; and they blesse themselves from that immediate voyce within, and calls it the voice of the Devil, which is the spirit of inspiration, and the word of God in their hearts, which men must obey and do.
