as_o to_o deserve_v this_o title_n two_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v suppose_v viz._n admonition_n and_o conviction_n 1._o that_o he_o have_v be_v admonish_v and_o that_o more_o than_o once_o of_o the_o

be_v plain_o intimate_v by_o st._n paul_n in_o his_o advice_n to_o his_o son_n titus_n already_o quote_v and_o in_o what_o manner_n and_o by_o who_o this_o admonition_n be_v to_o be_v give_v our_o

with_o thou_o one_o or_o two_o that_o by_o the_o mouth_n of_o two_o or_o three_o witness_n every_o word_n may_v be_v confirm_v and_o if_o he_o refuse_v to_o hear_v they_o tell_v it_o unto_o the_o church_n and_o if_o he_o refuse_v to_o hear_v the_o church_n let_v he_o be_v unto_o thou_o as_o a_o heathen_a and_o a_o publican_n where_o we_o may_v observe_v that_o our_o saviour_n speak_v of_o a_o twofold_a admonition_n viz._n one_o that_o be_v to_o be_v give_v in_o private_a and_o in_o a_o brotherly_a and_o friendly_a manner_n and_o another_o that_o be_v to_o be_v give_v in_o public_a by_o those_o who_o have_v jurisdiction_n over_o the_o offend_a person_n and_o be_v vest_v with_o power_n and_o authority_n to_o censure_v he_o now_o let_v we_o apply_v this_o to_o the_o case_n in_o hand_n if_o thy_o brother_n offend_v by_o embrace_v and_o tenacious_o hold_v some_o fundamental_a error_n in_o religion_n and_o this_o come_v to_o thy_o knowledge_n it_o will_v be_v a_o charitable_a work_n in_o thou_o if_o in_o a_o brotherly_a and_o friendly_a manner_n thou_o do_v private_o admonish_v he_o between_o thou_o and_o he_o alone_o if_o thou_o be_v successful_a therein_o thou_o have_v do_v a_o good_a work_n thou_o have_v gain_v thy_o brother_n but_o if_o this_o will_v not_o do_v thou_o must_v not_o leave_v it_o so_o but_o take_v other_o with_o thou_o and_o admonish_v he_o before_o they_o thus_o far_o may_v a_o private_a person_n interess_n himself_o in_o admonish_v another_o who_o be_v fall_v into_o or_o in_o danger_n of_o fall_v into_o heresy_n and_o if_o the_o person_n admonish_v continue_v obstinate_a against_o such_o admonition_n he_o do_v by_o that_o stubbornness_n very_o much_o add_v to_o his_o crime_n and_o incur_v the_o guilt_n of_o heresy_n yet_o proper_o speak_v he_o can_v true_o be_v call_v a_o heretic_n in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o church_n because_o she_o have_v not_o yet_o take_v cognizance_n thereof_o and_o therefore_o it_o follow_v if_o he_o refuse_v to_o
