A32802 The rise, growth, and danger of Socinianisme together with a plaine discovery of a desperate designe of corrupting the Protestant religion, whereby it appeares that the religion which hath been so violently contended for (by the Archbishop of Canterbury and his adherents) is not the true pure Protestant religion, but an hotchpotch of Arminianisme, Socinianisme and popery : it is likewise made evident, that the atheists, Anabaptists, and sectaries so much complained of, have been raised or encouraged by the doctrines and practises of the Arminian, Socinian and popish party / by Fr. Cheynell ... Cheynell, Francis, 1608-1665. 1643 (1643) Wing C3815; ESTC R16168 87,143 88

he_o teach_v man_n to_o depend_v upon_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n and_o not_o make_v man_n stand_v at_o a_o gaze_n to_o expect_v a_o revelation_n in_o a_o extraordinary_a way_n or_o else_o let_v

the_o inward_a and_o special_a revelation_n of_o the_o spirit_n he_o may_v be_v a_o socinian_n still_o but_o this_o by_o the_o way_n i_o shall_v say_v the_o less_o of_o mr._n chillingworth_n when_o

he_o will_v say_v the_o papist_n do_v not_o agree_v and_o therefore_o the_o catholic_n chillingworthianos_fw-la church_n of_o this_o age_n be_v not_o against_o the_o socinian_o nay_o the_o father_n do_v not_o all_o agree_v and_o so_o there_o be_v not_o a_o catholic_n consent_n of_o the_o ancient_n as_o mr._n chillingworth_n i_o believe_v do_v purposely_o show_v at_o large_a in_o the_o eighteen_o section_n of_o his_o answer_n to_o n._n n._n that_o so_o he_o may_v wind_v himself_o out_o the_o better_a in_o this_o 28._o section_n nay_o peradventure_o he_o will_v put_v the_o socinian_o in_o for_o to_o give_v a_o vote_n if_o you_o ask_v for_o the_o consent_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n of_o this_o age_n for_o he_o call_v they_o a_o company_n of_o christian_n in_o the_o 29._o section_n and_o though_o he_o say_v they_o be_v erroneous_a in_o explicate_n he_o do_v not_o say_v in_o deny_v the_o mystery_n of_o religion_n and_o allow_v great_a liberty_n in_o speculative_a matter_n so_o the_o socinian_o call_v the_o article_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n than_o any_o other_o company_n of_o christian_n do_v or_o they_o shall_v do_v yet_o for_o their_o honour_n he_o say_v they_o explicate_v the_o law_n of_o christ_n with_o more_o rigour_n and_o less_o indulgence_n to_o the_o flesh_n than_o the_o papist_n do_v and_o that_o be_v true_a but_o not_o much_o for_o their_o commendation_n because_o they_o thereby_o disgrace_v the_o moral_a law_n of_o god_n and_o say_v it_o be_v imperfect_a till_o christ_n give_v new_a law_n but_o mr._n chillingworth_n be_v willing_a to_o

there_o will_v not_o be_v a_o general_a consent_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n against_o the_o socinian_o once_o more_o if_o he_o take_v in_o all_o the_o arminian_n and_o some_o jesuited_a

though_o they_o be_v of_o mr._n fisher_n or_o mr._n flued_a his_o mind_n and_o rank_n all_o these_o among_o protestant_n for_o we_o have_v have_v strange_a kind_n of_o protestant_n for_o these_o twelve_o year_n last_o past_a than_o i_o believe_v there_o will_v not_o be_v a_o general_a consent_n of_o such_o protestant_n against_o the_o socinian_o and_o so_o mr._n chillingworth_n may_v oppose_v socinianism_n when_o all_o these_o agree_v together_o to_o oppose_v it_o but_o indeed_o he_o have_v one_o argument_n which_o make_v i_o believe_v that_o he_o and_o more_o of_o that_o faction_n who_o countenance_n many_o socinian_n error_n do_v not_o agree_v with_o the_o socinian_o in_o all_o point_n because_o socinianism_n if_o it_o be_v take_v in_o all_o its_o dimension_n be_v such_o a_o
