the_o reason_n than_o all_o kiss_v and_o all_o feast_n will_v be_v holy_a but_o now_o holiness_n stamp_v somewhat_o peculiar_a upon_o the_o thing_n it_o be_v apply_v to_o and_o signify_v that_o by_o

where_o it_o be_v not_o allow_v and_o this_o be_v the_o case_n in_o the_o ancient_a church_n to_o which_o he_o reply_v their_o practice_n be_v great_a uncertainty_n and_o their_o write_n deprave_v

that_o their_o write_n be_v deprave_v be_v very_o true_a but_o that_o they_o be_v so_o deprave_v as_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o certain_o they_o be_v what_o no_o one_o will_v assert_v and_o that_o

of_o learned_a man_n of_o all_o side_n as_o to_o what_o he_o say_v that_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v that_o none_o can_v have_v communion_n with_o they_o unless_o etc._n etc._n it_o be_v easy_a to_o

reader_n suppose_v however_o the_o first_o to_o be_v true_a yet_o if_o they_o have_v some_o form_n they_o have_v somewhat_o not_o prescribe_v but_o have_v they_o only_o some_o form_n relate_v to_o

problematical_a and_o say_v they_o be_v divide_v upon_o it_o among_o themselves_o 40._o i_o think_v not_o myself_o at_o present_a concern_v to_o show_v the_o absurdity_n of_o this_o principle_n as_o

consider_v what_o he_o offer_v on_o its_o behalf_n 1._o he_o say_v they_o may_v not_o in_o this_o case_n obey_v without_o sin_n because_o nature_n teach_v we_o not_o to_o part_v with_o all_o our_o natural_a liberty_n 2._o because_o we_o have_v a_o command_n to_o stand_v fast_o in_o the_o liberty_n etc._n etc._n as_o to_o the_o former_a i_o only_o say_v and_o that_o be_v enough_o that_o nature_n

his_o argument_n have_v any_o thing_n in_o it_o it_o have_v nothing_o in_o it_o as_o to_o our_o case_n for_o the_o second_o 46._o i_o leave_v he_o to_o what_o be_v say_v by_o way_n of_o prevention_n in_o the_o tract_n he_o oppose_v and_o which_o he_o shall_v have_v answer_v before_o he_o have_v make_v use_n of_o this_o as_o a_o argument_n all_o that_o he_o have_v except_v against_o upon_o that_o

particular_a institution_n and_o he_o give_v this_o reason_n against_o it_o 40._o for_o in_o that_o viz._n natural_a liberty_n we_o must_v not_o stand_v fast_o because_o divine_a institution_n have_v restrain_v we_o in_o it_o etc._n etc._n neither_o have_v christ_n restore_v we_o to_o any_o such_o liberty_n in_o answer_n to_o this_o i_o shall_v consider_v what_o natural_a liberty_n be_v and_o then_o what_o liberty_n it_o be_v that_o the_o apostle_n do_v treat_v of_o as_o to_o the_o former_a it_o be_v no_o other_o but_o the_o free_a use_n or_o disuse_n of_o thing_n indifferent_a whether_o out_o of_o or_o in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n as_o to_o the_o latter_a it_o be_v no_o other_o than_o a_o freedom_n from_o the_o jewish_a yoke_n of_o bondage_n and_o that_o law_n that_o gendr_v to_o it_o as_o the_o whole_a current_n of_o the_o apostle_n discourse_n do_v show_v and_o therefore_o it_o can_v be_v with_o respect_n to_o no_o other_o condition_n than_o that_o which_o mankind_n will_v have_v be_v have_v there_o be_v no_o such_o particular_a institution_n and_o be_v in_o before_o that_o institution_n it_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o injoin_v of_o it_o by_o

but_o one_o sort_n of_o they_o 9_o but_o under_o the_o gospel_n it_o be_v otherwise_o for_o the_o disjunction_n the_o or_n and_o the_o alias_o do_v not_o proceed_v from_o divine_a institution_n but_o from_o the_o nature_n of_o thing_n and_o sometime_o from_o human_a art_n and_o contrivance_n as_o when_o wash_v be_v command_v for_o i_o shall_v not_o contend_v about_o it_o all_o the_o particular_n

surplice_n now_o when_o this_o disjunction_n do_v proceed_v not_o from_o divine_a institution_n but_o from_o the_o reason_n aforesaid_a and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o special_a command_n of_o god_n to_o interpose_v determine_v restrain_v or_o disjoin_v it_o can_v be_v no_o controlment_n of_o the_o wisdom_n or_o authority_n of_o god_n for_o a_o church_n to_o interpose_v restrain_v or_o
