15 I think I understood from part 1 something very fundamental about how early Friends experienced the possibility of the Reign of Heaven, that they would no longer need the law because they would in their life in the Light be naturally unable to do wrong. This was the point at which Fox was accused of the heresy of Perfectionism, I believe. So is the importance of discernment something that actually emerged a bit later, after the Nayler-Fox split and the end of the Commonwealth with the Restoration?

21 Your introduction via the pentecoste makes me wonder where Quakers sit on the christian theological timeline. Mainstream Christian churches have "gone through" the garden of Eden, the old testament before Christ, the coming, death and resurrection of Christ, and are awaiting a second coming. Had Quakers, through the second coming of Christ via the Pentecoste and through continuing revellation moved beyond the second coming, or reverted to garden of Eden? Was there a conclusive theological position, and how does this compare with other groups? (I know fairly little about Christian theology)
