business_n of_o excommunication_n be_v place_v by_o he_o in_o actual_a receive_n from_o which_o he_o suspend_v all_o that_o refuse_v to_o submit_v unto_o his_o way_n it_o follow_v that_o this_o man_n

grieve_v the_o tender_a mr._n drake_n say_v it_o will_v do_v the_o wheat_n much_o good_a the_o servant_n take_v their_o lord_n proviso_n to_o forbear_v mr._n drake_n take_v it_o to_o do_v the_o contrary_a you_o must_v think_v mr._n drake_n a_o little_o wise_a than_o these_o servant_n as_o for_o his_o term_n of_o negative_a and_o positive_a suspension_n we_o may_v approve_v if_o he_o will_v

what_o will_v become_v of_o this_o excommunication_n i_o answer_v there_o be_v no_o doubt_n of_o christ_n reconcile_n his_o own_o ordinance_n p._n 59_o christ_n converse_n with_o sinner_n make_v for_o

2_o christ_n sometime_o converse_v too_o with_o the_o pharise_n i_o hope_v to_o do_v good_a upon_o they_o 3_o i_o have_v think_v christ_n have_v often_o company_v with_o sinner_n to_o bring_v they_o to_o repentance_n and_o not_o with_o such_o only_a as_o be_v penitent_a already_o and_o that_o i_o think_v apply_v here_o make_v little_a for_o you_o p._n 60_o he_o bring_v in_o some_o expression_n of_o i_o with_o amazement_n the_o sense_n whereof_o as_o harmless_a as_o the_o word_n be_v but_o this_o i_o judge_v christ_n act_n of_o admit_v judas_n have_v be_v general_o prevalent_a with_o the_o

whatsoever_o become_v of_o this_o opposite_a thing_n that_o contend_v with_o it_o not_o that_o i_o hold_v all_o judge_a unlawful_a for_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o there_o may_v be_v both_o a_o public_a
