A80157	Provocator provocatus. Or, An answer made to an open challenge made by one M. Boatman in Peters Parish in Norwich, the 13th of December, 1654. in a sermon preached there at a fast, in which answer these questions are spoke to. 1. Whether juridicall suspension of some persons from the Lords Supper be deducible from Scripture; the affirmative is proved. : 2. Whether ministeriall or privative suspension be justifiable; the affirmative also is maintained. : 3. Whether the suspension of the ignorant and scandalous be a pharisaicall invention; a thing which wiser ages never thought of, as Mr Boatman falsly affirmed. In opposition to which is proved, that it hath been the judgment and practice of the eminent saints and servants of Christ, in all ages, of all other reformed churches in all times ... / By John Collings ...

brethren_n of_o the_o dissent_v party_n we_o will_v suspend_v none_o but_o after_o admonition_n for_o some_o scandalous_a sin_n and_o indeed_o this_o only_a be_v proper_o suspension_n we_o deny_v the_o sacrament_n indeed_o to_o other_o viz._n such_o as_o will_v not_o give_v account_n of_o their_o faith_n and_o submit_v to_o the_o order_n of_o the_o church_n but_o we_o will_v not_o have_v this_o look_v upon_o by_o our_o brethren_n as_o if_o it_o be_v a_o stand_a principle_n of_o we_o or_o as_o if_o we_o intend_v to_o put_v christian_n to_o give_v a_o account_n of_o their_o faith_n every_o time_n they_o come_v to_o the_o sacrament_n the_o contrary_a be_v evident_a in_o our_o practice_n we_o must_v therefore_o be_v consider_v as_o a_o disorder_a and_o now_o reform_v church_n have_v all_o those_o minister_n who_o go_v before_o we_o in_o our_o church_n do_v their_o duty_n they_o have_v save_v we_o our_o labour_n they_o shall_v have_v admit_v none_o at_o first_o to_o the_o

be_v ordinary_o they_o can_v not_o be_v worse_o than_o their_o parson_n we_o enter_v now_o into_o these_o man_n harvest_n and_o find_v what_o slovenly_a work_n they_o make_v we_o can_v think_v it_o

by_o our_o way_n of_o administration_n of_o that_o holy_a ordinance_n have_v make_v our_o church_n a_o reproach_n to_o papist_n and_o a_o grief_n of_o heart_n to_o all_o protestant_n and_o by_o it_o
