A39389	To en archy: or, An exercitation upon a momentous question in divinity, and case of conscience viz. whether it be lawfull for any person to act contrary to the opinion of his own consicence, formed from arguments that to him appear very probable, though not necessary or demonstrative. Where the opinions of the papists, Vasquez, Sanches, Azonius, &c. are shewed, as also the opinions of some Protestants, viz. Mr. Hooker, Bp Sanderson, Dr. Fulwood, &c. and compared with the opinions of others; the negative part of the question maintained; the unreasonableness of the popish opinions, and some Protestants, for blind obedience, detected; and many other things discoursed. By a Protestant.	Protestant.; Collinges, John, 1623-1690, attributed name.	1675 (1675)	Wing E718; Wing C5314_CANCELLED; ESTC R214929	62,722	96

in_o case_n the_o thing_n command_v we_o be_v by_o we_o judge_v lawful_a for_o that_o he_o beg_v all_o along_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o forbear_v do_v it_o because_o some_o of_o our_o brethren_n will_v

the_o exercise_n of_o true_a religion_n the_o genus_fw-la we_o agree_v and_o think_v he_o may_v have_v shorten_v the_o description_n by_o leave_v out_o outward_a and_o temporal_a because_o no_o man_n

what_o his_o conscience_n tell_v he_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n he_o shall_v do_v and_o we_o take_v notice_n too_o of_o a_o excellent_a passage_n in_o the_o doctor_n book_n p._n 45._o l._n ult_n &_o penult_n that_o god_n have_v as_o much_o right_a to_o appoint_v the_o way_n of_o his_o worship_n as_o to_o be_v worship_v a_o passage_n we_o be_v so_o much_o in_o love_n with_o that_o it_o be_v

other_o ceremony_n §_o 9_o but_o suppose_v we_o allow_v the_o doctor_n description_n of_o persection_n the_o next_o question_n be_v how_o we_o shall_v know_v what_o be_v true_a religion_n who_o shall_v be_v the_o judge_n shall_v the_o scripture_n but_o who_o shall_v interpret_v the_o scripture_n as_o to_o a_o christian_n private_a practice_n shall_v the_o superior_n then_o certain_o there_o be_v never_o any_o persecution_n in_o the_o world_n for_o it_o be_v very_o uncharitable_a to_o presume_v that_o any_o superior_a shall_v punish_v another_o for_o the_o exercise_n of_o what_o himself_o own_v to_o be_v the_o true_a religion_n we_o have_v more_o charity_n for_o bonner_n himself_o shall_v the_o inferior_a be_v judge_n what_o be_v true_a religion_n then_o i_o fear_v the_o doctor_n will_v be_v cast_v many_o of_o they_o will_v say_v they_o be_v mischievous_o and_o violent_o prosecute_v imprison_v punish_v revile_v for_o what_o they_o judge_v the_o exercise_n of_o the_o true_a religion_n §_o 10._o the_o upshot_n of_o this_o discourse_n be_v that_o who_o they_o be_v who_o be_v true_o guilty_a of_o persecute_v will_v not_o be_v determine_v till_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n when_o god_n shall_v determine_v which_o be_v the_o true_a religion_n and_o whether_o man_n true_o run_v those_o hazard_n because_o they_o be_v afraid_a of_o sin_v against_o god_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n as_o to_o we_o he_o be_v persecute_v who_o can_v true_o say_v that_o he_o suffer_v for_o do_v any_o thing_n which_o he_o think_v he_o shall_v sin_v against_o god_n if_o he_o do_v not_o do_v and_o for_o forbear_v any_o thing_n which_o he_o true_o ●●●n●s_v he_o shall_v sin_v against_o god_n if_o he_o shall_v do_v and_o we_o believe_v that_o those_o who_o thus_o suffer_v though_o another_o day_n they_o shall_v be_v adjudge_v by_o god_n to_o have_v be_v in_o a_o mistake_n and_o so_o not_o persecute_v yet_o as_o to_o what_o they_o have_v do_v will_v be_v judge_v guilty_a of_o no_o more_o than_o a_o humane_a infirmity_n §._o 11_o we_o have_v so_o much_o charity_n as_o to_o believe_v that_o that_o popish_a priest_n who_o suffer_v according_a to_o the_o law_n for_o seduce_v if_o he_o can_v true_o say_v that_o he_o do_v believe_v god_n word_n oblige_v he_o to_o do_v what_o he_o do_v may_v proper_o enough_o say_v he_o be_v persecute_v but_o we_o also_o believe_v that_o god_n will_v not_o judge_v so_o another_o day_n and_o that_o the_o magistrate_n do_v but_o his_o duty_n because_o by_o god_n law_n none_o ought_v to_o be_v endure_v that_o entice_v other_o to_o idolatry_n but_o whoso_o make_v another_o to_o suffer_v because_o he_o dare_v not_o sin_n against_o god_n act_v contrary_a to_o what_o his_o conscience_n judge_v unlawful_a from_o probable_a argument_n we_o believe_v far_o less_o excusable_a because_o there_o be_v no_o necessity_n upon_o he_o to_o lay_v any_o such_o command_n and_o enforce_v they_o by_o any_o such_o penalty_n but_o there_o do_v lie_v a_o necessity_n of_o suffer_v in_o this_o case_n upon_o the_o inferior_a to_o avoid_v sin_v against_o his_o conscience_n whether_o his_o conscience_n be_v in_o the_o right_n or_o in_o the_o wrong_n will_v be_v determine_v another_o day_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n he_o shall_v sin_v if_o he_o shall_v not_o hearken_v to_o it_o to_o avoid_v which_o he_o suffer_v which_o be_v so_o far_o as_o he_o can_v possible_o judge_v to_o suffer_v for_o righteousness_n sake_n after_o the_o say_n of_o which_o we_o think_v little_o more_o need_v be_v say_v to_o the_o doctor_n be_v book_n §_o 12._o to_o conclude_v our_o discourse_n upon_o this_o question_n we_o have_v observe_v in_o all_o those_o almost_o who_o have_v write_v for_o conformity_n great_a insist_v upon_o the_o authority_n of_o former_a and_o present_a church_n and_o the_o testimony_n of_o many_o divine_n dead_a or_o alive_a some_o of_o which_o they_o tell_v we_o be_v old_a nonconformist_n and_o this_o have_v be_v the_o general_a method_n of_o all_o late_a writer_n almost_o to_o pass_v over_o all_o our_o and_o our_o forefather_n argument_n and_o in_o order_n to_o make_v we_o as_o odious_a to_o the_o world_n as_o they_o will_v have_v

this_o these_o in_o artificial_a argument_n be_v use_v we_o can_v tell_v unless_o those_o that_o bring_v they_o have_v a_o little_a tincture_n of_o the_o jesuit_n doctrine_n we_o before_o show_v at_o
