“They that walk in the light have fellowship one with another.” What shall we say of those who plead being left to the light in order to justify their not having fellowship one with another? And, which is worse, who suppose people may conscientiously and justifiably dissent within themselves by reason of the variety of the degrees of the spirit and grace that are given of God unto them, as if the lesser degree may dissent from the greater, because of its not being able to Comprehend it. And such tell us, “This is the ancient principle of Truth,” and “How will you else be able to maintain the Quakers’ principles?”

The fallacy of this lieth in not rightly distinguishing between diversity and disagreement, variety and contrariety. For this diversity hath concord and this variety hath unity.

—William Penn, True Spiritual Liberty (1681), a condensation by the Tract Association of Friends
