A26882	Catholick communion doubly defended by Dr. Owens, vindicator, and Richard Baxter and the state of that communion opened, and the questions discussed, whether there be any displeasure at sin, or repentance for it in Heaven : with a parallel of the case of using a faulty translation of Scripture, and a faulty lyturgy.	Baxter, Richard, 1615-1691.	1684 (1684)	Wing B1208; ESTC R11859	46,778	44

be_v a_o great_a hard_a necessary_a work_n we_o can_v easy_o call_v other_o man_n to_o repent_v iii_o have_v tell_v you_o my_o judgement_n i_o will_v as_o this_o worthy_a brother_n advise_v yet_o further_o review_v my_o own_o action_n i_o be_o one_o of_o those_o that_o have_v former_o imitate_v austin_n in_o some_o confession_n and_o retractation_n but_o i_o can_v make_v every_o scornful_a

have_v prevent_v those_o overturning_n which_o i_o bewail_v and_o at_o that_o time_n i_o think_v they_o a_o sin_n so_o great_a as_o i_o will_v not_o now_o describe_v and_o take_v in_o the_o prognostic_n of_o their_o consequent_n in_o which_o i_o have_v only_o be_v thus_o far_o mistake_v that_o god_n wonderful_a mercy_n have_v hitherto_o make_v they_o much_o easy_a than_o i_o expect_v i_o mention_v they_o most_o open_o and_o plain_o then_o to_o convince_v the_o guilty_a and_o save_v the_o tempt_v and_o i_o have_v oft_o since_o make_v some_o mention_n of_o they_o not_o to_o call_v the_o

find_v that_o some_o much_o mistake_v i_o and_o think_v that_o all_o the_o person_n that_o i_o have_v name_v i_o mention_v as_o intolerable_a or_o make_v they_o worse_o than_o they_o be_v and_o
