Wherein Dr. Owen's discovery of the true nature of schism is briefly and friendly examined, together with Mr. Noyes of New England his arguments against imposition of hands in ordination. / By Giles Firmin, sometime of new England, now pastor of the Church at Shalford in Essex.

schism_n from_o a_o congregation_n that_o be_v not_o reform_v will_v not_o nor_o can_v reform_v itself_o with_o p._n 262._o 1_o tim._n 6.5_o 2_o tim._n 3.5_o hos_fw-la 4.12_o if_o the_o dr._n apply_v

i_o will_v not_o say_v the_o holy_a ghost_n command_v schism_n but_o separation_n in_o some_o case_n he_o do_v therein_o i_o agree_v with_o the_o doctor_n and_z according_o practice_n different_a

make_v a_o separation_n in_o the_o congregation_n but_o not_o from_o the_o congregation_n have_v i_o read_v that_o the_o apostle_n have_v stand_v upon_o the_o reality_n of_o grace_n in_o their_o admission_n into_o church-fellowship_n i_o will_v have_v be_v as_o strict_a as_o some_o brethren_n say_v they_o be_v but_o because_o i_o find_v it_o not_o in_o their_o practice_n i_o look_v on_o it_o as_o man_n add_v to_o the_o word_n and_o so_o let_v it_o alone_o but_o our_o question_n be_v not_o whether_o any_o separation_n but_o whether_o such_o a_o separation_n be_v command_v as_o thus_o here_o be_v a_o church_n where_o be_v many_o corrupt_a member_n that_o be_v true_a but_o withal_o here_o be_v 1._o many_o real_a and_o visible_a saint_n 2._o a_o pastor_n godly_a sound_a in_o

when_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v celebrate_v they_o be_v separate_v not_o admit_v but_o there_o be_v a_o pure_a lump_n 5._o the_o church_n be_v not_o puff_v up_o but_o rather_o grieve_v that_o there_o be_v so_o many_o corrupt_a member_n among_o they_o but_o according_a to_o their_o light_n they_o be_v so_o many_o know_v not_o how_o to_o cast_v they_o out_o leave_v there_o by_o other_o man_n sin_n but_o bear_v this_o evil_n with_o complaint_n and_o prayer_n to_o god_n for_o heal_v yet_o notwithstanding_o a_o few_o of_o these_o visible_a saint_n the_o minor_a part_n be_v sure_a we_o observe_v shall_v make_v separation_n not_o only_o from_o the_o corrupt_a member_n but_o from_o the_o major_a part_n of_o the_o godly_a and_o visible_a saint_n from_o that_o godly_a pastor_n have_v no_o communion_n with_o these_o no_o not_o in_o the_o supper_n where_o they_o be_v a_o pure_a lump_n and_o yet_o this_o minor_a part_n have_v not_o do_v their_o part_n to_o reform_v these_o corrupt_a member_n if_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v command_v such_o a_o separation_n i_o pray_v doctor_n quote_v the_o text_n where_o we_o may_v find_v it_o i_o fear_v he_o will_v hardly_o find_v three_o text_n for_o such_o a_o separation_n yet_o i_o know_v where_o such_o separation_n be_v and_o of_o these_o man_n complain_v if_o he_o can_v produce_v scripture_n he_o have_v say_v nothing_o to_o many_o of_o our_o separation_n the_o dr._n i_o perceive_v speak_v much_o of_o original_a institution_n and_o primitive_a constitution_n of_o church_n but_o i_o shall_v desire_v he_o to_o show_v we_o the_o scripture_n where_o the_o apostle_n do_v use_v to_o go_v to_o several_a congregation_n where_o indeed_o be_v divers_a corrupt_a member_n but_o withal_o many_o godly_a at_o least_o visible_a saint_n who_o have_v walk_v before_o with_o their_o godly_a pastor_n in_o constant_a attendance_n upon_o and_o subjection_n to_o the_o ordinance_n of_o christ_n and_o there_o the_o apostle_n do_v pick_v out_o some_o of_o the_o best_a of_o the_o member_n and_o leave_v the_o pastor_n and_o other_o grieve_v weaken_a and_o thus_o do_v constitute_v church_n i_o can_v remember_v any_o scripture_n which_o show_v this_o be_v their_o practice_n whence_o i_o doubt_v this_o kind_n of_o constitution_n be_v not_o so_o old_a but_o rather_o have_v its_o original_n since_o 1640._o as_o for_o parochial_a precincis_fw-la i_o shall_v speak_v to_o they_o hereafter_o object_n but_o why_o then_o do_v not_o these_o godly_a pastor_n and_o visible_a saint_n you_o speak_v of_o separate_z the_o profane_a and_o gross_o ignorant_a from_o their_o congregation_n but_o sinful_o retain_v they_o or_o at_o least_o suffer_v they_o to_o abide_v with_o they_o if_o they_o do_v so_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v trouble_v with_o godly_a man_n separate_v from_o they_o they_o sweep_v not_o the_o lord_n house_n answ_n whether_o godly_a man_n will_v not_o separate_v then_o i_o can_v tell_v if_o the_o apostle_n rule_v of_o admission_n be_v sufficient_a to_o guide_v we_o there_o may_v be_v more_o hope_n they_o will_v not_o but_o when_o man_n set_v up_o rule_v themselves_o and_o all_o man_n must_v come_v to_o their_o rule_n and_o way_n they_o will_v be_v as_o apt_a to_o separate_v from_o those_o who_o the_o apostle_n will_v admit_v i_o think_v they_o will_v be_v almost_o as_o eager_a for_o separation_n as_o now_o whether_o those_o pastor_n and_o saint_n visible_a do_v sinful_o suffer_v such_o in_o their_o church_n and_o so_o be_v blame-worthy_a i_o dispute_v not_o but_o as_o to_o the_o present_a state_n of_o these_o church_n leave_v such_o by_o the_o negligence_n &_o sin_n of_o those_o who_o usurp_v the_o power_n over_o they_o whence_o some_o will_v scarce_o own_v they_o for_o church_n and_o other_o
