if_o another_o shall_v not_o communicate_v at_o easter_n he_o will_v be_v in_o the_o same_o condemnation_n be_v not_o this_o contrary_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o jesus_n christ_n who_o demand_v

this_o rigorous_a spirit_n which_o be_v now_o observe_v in_o the_o church_n be_v not_o conformable_a to_o that_o of_o jesus_n christ_n who_o 30._o yoke_n be_v easy_a and_o his_o burden_n light_n whereas_o those_o impose_v troublesome_a and_o grievous_a command_n yea_o even_o impossible_a to_o be_v observe_v for_o he_o who_o will_v live_v as_o a_o true_a christian_a will_v have_v no_o need_n of_o confess_v once_o a_o year_n nevertheless_o these_o make_v a_o command_n of_o it_o i_o must_v confess_v sir_n that_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n i_o do_v not_o observe_v it_o for_o since_o i_o

because_o the_o most_o of_o those_o decree_n and_o command_n be_v more_o political_a than_o divine_a and_o jesus_n christ_n do_v not_o follow_v these_o way_n they_o ought_v to_o come_v from_o above_o the_o four_o conference_n of_o the_o reformation_n of_o the_o church_n of_o its_o council_n command_n and_o ordinance_n i_o say_v to_o she_o that_o the_o council_n be_v hold_v that_o they_o may_v

they_o who_o will_v make_v a_o good_a reformation_n ought_v always_o to_o take_v up_o again_o the_o first_o institution_n and_o make_v it_o only_o be_v observe_v for_o the_o holy_a spirit_n can_v never_o be_v mistake_v 14._o there_o be_v nothing_o to_o be_v mend_v in_o nor_o add_v to_o any_o of_o his_o work_n and_o since_o we_o can_v never_o change_v a_o perfect_a form_n and_o give_v it_o

have_v creep_v into_o the_o church_n will_v have_v be_v redress_v better_a by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o jesus_n christ_n take_v it_o in_o the_o plain_a letter_n than_o by_o so_o many_o other_o new_a

for_o it_o regulate_v all_o our_o action_n and_o manner_n there_o need_v nothing_o to_o be_v add_v to_o it_o in_o order_n
to_o revive_v the_o true_a spirit_n of_o christianity_n with_o more_o ease_n than_o all_o that_o they_o will_v join_v to_o it_o since_o which_o thing_n have_v be_v the_o cause_n that_o many_o have_v

shall_v find_v direct_a contradiction_n because_o these_o council_n will_v have_v by_o force_n what_o jesus_n christ_n will_v not_o have_v but_o by_o love_n he_o never_o press_v any_o body_n to_o

to_o his_o own_o freewill_n whereas_o these_o damn_v the_o soul_n and_o oppress_v the_o body_n of_o those_o who_o will_v not_o obey_v they_o they_o condemn_v as_o guilty_a of_o mortal_a sin_n all_o

very_o short_o make_v they_o know_v to_o all_o the_o world_n though_o they_o strive_v so_o earnest_o to_o cover_v they_o i_o say_v to_o she_o i_o shall_v be_v very_o sorry_a if_o i_o shall_v aim_v to_o cover_v what_o displease_v god_n but_o that_o it_o be_v the_o common_a sentiment_n of_o all_o christian_n to_o own_o and_o follow_v as_o a_o good_a thing_n what_o the_o church_n assemble_v in_o

do_v not_o take_v the_o bark_n for_o the_o wood_n and_o a_o humane_a church_n for_o the_o divine_a the_o holy_a church_n can_v err_v as_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o divers_a time_n because_o it_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n with_o god_n if_o it_o be_v holy_a it_o be_v apostolic_a now_o the_o apostle_n never_o command_v the_o go_v once_o a_o year_n to_o confession_n upon_o pain_n of_o sin_n nor_o even_o teach_v it_o to_o any_o as_o a_o virtue_n on_o the_o contrary_a jesus_n christ_n say_v to_o all_o those_o who_o sin_n he_o remit_v 11._o go_v and_o sin_n no_o more_o this_o be_v far_o from_o

of_o necessity_n a_o man_n must_v sin_v every_o year_n that_o he_o may_v confess_v every_o year_n if_o he_o will_v not_o commit_v a_o sacrilege_n do_v you_o not_o see_v sir_n that_o the_o holy_a

though_o it_o be_v in_o use_n among_o christian_n to_o refer_v to_o it_o and_o believe_v it_o this_o can_v be_v nothing_o but_o a_o blind_a submission_n for_o if_o we_o have_v good_a eye_n we_o will_v

therefore_o to_o satisfy_v your_o demand_n i_o will_v explain_v the_o nine_o way_n by_o which_o we_o offend_v god_n in_o another_o first_o we_o commit_v sin_n in_o counsel_v to_o do_v evil_a how_o many_o be_v there_o who_o be_v guilty_a of_o this_o sin_n without_o perceive_v it_o if_o you_o have_v a_o friend_n affront_v you_o will_v say_v to_o he_o i_o will_v not_o suffer_v this_o affront_n without_o revenge_v myself_o or_o you_o will_v tell_v he_o you_o will_v not_o have_v the_o heart_n to_o suffer_v it_o and_o such_o like_a thing_n or_o if_o we_o give_v any_o counsel_n that_o be_v not_o according_a to_o the_o righteousness_n goodness_n or_o truth_n of_o god_n or_o if_o we_o counsel_v any_o to_o do_v evil_a for_o our_o pleasure_n or_o profit_n or_o otherwise_o these_o counsel_n be_v as_o many_o sin_n as_o the_o wicked_a action_n which_o those_o commit_v who_o we_o have_v counsel_v to_o do_v they_o whether_o they_o be_v in_o word_n or_o deed_n because_o our_o
advice_n be_v often_o the_o cause_n why_o the_o sin_n be_v do_v by_o a_o just_a title_n then_o we_o ought_v to_o bear_v the_o punishment_n of_o it_o as_o we_o shall_v certain_o do_v before_o god_n who_o look_v more_o to_o the_o wickedness_n of_o the_o heart_n than_o to_o the_o evil_a action_n and_o he_o who_o counsel_v another_o to_o do_v evil_a be_v sometime_o more_o wicked_a than_o he_o who_o do_v it_o out_o of_o complaisance_n to_o his_o counsellor_n or_o out_o of_o the_o esteem_n he_o have_v for_o he_o those_o in_o office_n or_o attorney_n and_o advocate_n who_o give_v counsel_n and_o not_o according_a to_o straight_a justice_n and_o truth_n do_v often_o fall_v into_o these_o sin_n and_o therefore_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v condemn_v of_o the_o same_o guilt_n with_o he_o who_o commit_v the_o evil_a deed_n to_o which_o they_o have_v advise_v he_o for_o they_o have_v both_o equal_o contribute_v thereunto_o and_o the_o counsellor_n often_o with_o more_o wickedness_n than_o the_o doer_n because_o to_o counsel_v evil_a be_v worse_a than_o to_o do_v it_o second_o he_o who_o support_v evil_n commit_v also_o the_o same_o sin_n with_o he_o who_o do_v it_o because_o if_o evil_a be_v not_o support_v it_o will_v not_o be_v so_o often_o commit_v therefore_o the_o supporter_n of_o evil_a cause_n the_o evil_a deed_n and_o give_v the_o man_n boldness_n to_o commit_v it_o the_o more_o and_o therefore_o he_o who_o support_v it_o ought_v just_o to_o bear_v the_o punishment_n of_o he_o who_o do_v it_o yea_o even_o more_o for_o it_o will_v be_v in_o his_o power_n to_o hinder_v it_o by_o not_o support_v it_o those_o be_v double_o guilty_a that_o be_v of_o the_o support_n that_o they_o themselves_o give_v and_o of_o the_o evil_n do_v by_o the_o other_o which_o he_o will_v not_o do_v if_o he_o be_v not_o support_v in_o it_o the_o three_o way_n by_o which_o we_o commit_v sin_n in_o another_o be_v in_o command_v to_o do_v evil._n in_o which_o father_n and_o mother_n master_n and_o mistress_n and_o other_o superior_n do_v very_o often_o fall_v who_o command_v those_o under_o they_o to_o do_v something_o that_o be_v not_o just_a or_o good_a these_o be_v guilty_a of_o as_o many_o sin_n as_o they_o command_v their_o subject_n or_o inferior_n who_o very_o often_o if_o they_o be_v leave_v to_o themselves_o will_v not_o or_o dare_v not_o commit_v the_o evil_n which_o be_v command_v they_o though_o inferior_n be_v not_o oblige_v and_o never_o aught_o to_o obey_v the_o command_n which_o be_v give_v they_o to_o do_v evil_a yet_o the_o commander_n cease_v not_o to_o offend_v mortal_o 29._o only_a by_o command_v it_o as_o a_o inferior_a commit_v a_o mortal_a sin_n in_o do_v the_o evil_a which_o have_v be_v command_v he_o because_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o one_o can_v lessen_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o other_o but_o both_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o same_o command_v sin_n in_o which_o many_o be_v deceive_v who_o believe_v that_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o they_o to_o do_v the_o evil_n which_o have_v be_v enjoin_v they_o by_o father_n mother_n master_n or_o mistress_n or_o any_o other_o superior_n whosoever_o they_o be_v as_o also_o such_o superior_n deceive_v themselves_o who_o be_v persuade_v that_o they_o have_v not_o commit_v sin_n when_o they_o act_n not_o in_o the_o evil_a deed_n for_o true_o and_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n they_o commit_v as_o many_o as_o they_o have_v command_v to_o be_v do_v for_o if_o their_o will_n be_v not_o evil_a they_o will_v never_o advise_v to_o do_v evil_a much_o less_o command_v it_o the_o four_o way_n by_o which_o we_o offend_v god_n by_o another_o be_v when_o we_o commend_v or_o approve_v evil_a this_o be_v very_o common_a in_o this_o age_n wherein_o evil_a doer_n be_v commend_v when_o we_o see_v any_o one_o avenge_v himself_o of_o a_o affront_n we_o will_v say_v he_o show_v that_o he_o have_v courage_n we_o be_v ready_a even_o to_o praise_v child_n that_o be_v malicious_a in_o defend_v themselves_o as_o well_o as_o other_o who_o give_v blow_v for_o blow_n or_o those_o 18._o who_o signalise_v themselves_o by_o pompand_n vanity_n or_o we_o praise_v those_o who_o exceed_v in_o feast_v or_o other_o evil_n whatever_o they_o be_v now_o the_o praise_n of_o evil_n incite_v man_n to_o do_v it_o the_o more_o and_o encourage_v they_o to_o commit_v it_o the_o more_o bold_o and_o therefore_o he_o who_o praise_v it_o be_v guilty_a of_o as_o many_o sin_n as_o he_o who_o do_v the_o evil._n the_o five_o way_n by_o which_o we_o offend_v god_n in_o another_o be_v in_o partake_v of_o the_o evil_a as_o when_o one_o have_v some_o advantage_n by_o the_o evil_n do_v by_o another_o or_o if_o any_o one_o profit_n by_o the_o theft_n which_o another_o commit_v whether_o by_o buy_v what_o be_v steal_v ot_fw-mi eat_n and_o drink_v it_o or_o by_o enjoy_v some_o ill-gotten_a good_n so_o also_o he_o who_o make_v gain_v by_o the_o gluttony_n or_o drunkenness_n or_o other_o sin_n which_o other_o man_n commit_v by_o all_o these_o thing_n man_n be_v partaker_n of_o other_o man_n sin_n and_o thereby_o do_v the_o same_o evil_n with_o he_o who_o direct_o commit_v it_o yea_o even_o more_o because_o he_o who_o commit_v theft_n or_o any_o other_o actual_a wickedness_n run_v the_o hazard_n of_o his_o life_n or_o of_o other_o corporal_a punishment_n but_o he_o who_o partake_v in_o it_o only_o live_v without_o fear_n though_o he_o be_v equal_o guilty_a with_o he_o who_o commit_v it_o nevertheless_o he_o do_v not_o undergo_v the_o same_o penance_n in_o this_o world_n neither_o do_v he_o acknowledge_v his_o fault_n that_o he_o may_v give_v satisfaction_n for_o it_o in_o the_o other_o therefore_o his_o sin_n be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o dangerous_a because_o he_o do_v not_o weigh_v it_o as_o it_o be_v weigh_v before_o god_n the_o six_o way_n that_o we_o offend_v god_n in_o another_o be_v when_o we_o take_v pleasure_n in_o another_o man_n sin_n as_o he_o who_o take_v pleasure_n to_o see_v man_n fight_v a_o duel_n or_o otherwise_o or_o be_v please_v that_o another_o cheat_v cunning_o or_o steal_v handsome_o or_o provide_v for_o his_o accommodation_n with_o luxury_n and_o vanity_n thus_o whatever_o the_o evil_n be_v the_o pleasure_n that_o we_o take_v in_o see_v another_o do_v evil_a be_v sin_n for_o he_o who_o love_v god_n aught_o to_o be_v grieve_v 21._o for_o all_o kind_n of_o evil_n that_o he_o see_v commit_v by_o other_o as_o well_o as_o for_o what_o he_o commit_v himself_o the_o seven_o way_n be_v when_o we_o do_v not_o correct_v evil_a as_o much_o as_o be_v in_o our_o power_n as_o father_n mother_n master_n mistress_n who_o tolerate_v the_o evil_a of_o their_o child_n or_o inferior_n because_o they_o desire_v not_o to_o offend_v they_o or_o for_o some_o other_o humane_a respect_n or_o even_o out_o of_o softness_n of_o temper_n or_o natural_a goodness_n suffer_v evil_a rather_o than_o they_o will_v correct_v it_o when_o they_o be_v oblige_v to_o do_v it_o all_o these_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o same_o evil_n with_o their_o child_n or_o inferior_n for_o their_o tolerate_v they_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o they_o be_v habituate_v and_o continue_v in_o evil_a who_o may_v have_v amend_v if_o they_o have_v be_v rebuke_v and_o chastise_v for_o it_o thus_o many_o will_v be_v damn_v who_o be_v not_o apprehensive_a of_o it_o for_o all_o the_o evil_n which_o subject_n or_o inferior_n commit_v for_o want_v of_o reproof_n will_v be_v lay_v to_o the_o charge_n of_o superior_n as_o if_o they_o themselves_o have_v commit_v they_o by_o their_o own_o deed_n 8._o because_o of_o the_o obligation_n that_o lie_v on_o they_o to_o correct_v evil_a and_o their_o neglect_v to_o do_v it_o upon_o whatsoever_o pretext_n the_o eight_o way_n that_o we_o offend_v god_n in_o another_o be_v when_o we_o do_v not_o hinder_v evil_a when_o we_o may_v do_v it_o as_o if_o two_o person_n quarrel_n or_o fight_v and_o we_o may_v pacify_v or_o divert_v they_o nevertheless_o we_o will_v not_o give_v ourselves_o the_o trouble_n either_o through_o sloth_n or_o humane_a respect_n or_o some_o other_o cause_n or_o when_o we_o see_v one_o ready_a to_o do_v evil_a and_o we_o may_v hinder_v it_o by_o admonish_v he_o or_o discover_v his_o evil_n by_o cry_v out_o or_o otherwise_o which_o we_o omit_v we_o commit_v the_o same_o evil_n with_o he_o who_o do_v it_o when_o it_o be_v in_o our_o power_n to_o hinder_v it_o by_o what_o way_n soever_o this_o may_v be_v as_o by_o give_v too_o much_o liberty_n to_o those_o under_o our_o charge_n or_o leave_v they_o in_o dangerous_a occasion_n or_o give_v they_o money_n or_o other_o thing_n with_o which_o they_o take_v occasion_n to_o offend_v god_n in_o all_o these_o and_o
