A80157	Provocator provocatus. Or, An answer made to an open challenge made by one M. Boatman in Peters Parish in Norwich, the 13th of December, 1654. in a sermon preached there at a fast, in which answer these questions are spoke to. 1. Whether juridicall suspension of some persons from the Lords Supper be deducible from Scripture; the affirmative is proved. : 2. Whether ministeriall or privative suspension be justifiable; the affirmative also is maintained. : 3. Whether the suspension of the ignorant and scandalous be a pharisaicall invention; a thing which wiser ages never thought of, as Mr Boatman falsly affirmed. In opposition to which is proved, that it hath been the judgment and practice of the eminent saints and servants of Christ, in all ages, of all other reformed churches in all times ... / By John Collings ...

but_o especial_o and_o more_o particular_o holy_a reproof_n and_o admonition_n and_o that_o be_v the_o utmost_a the_o text_n reach_v severe_a and_o wholesome_a admonition_n and_o dehortation_n from_o evil_a these_o be_v call_v holy_a and_o pearl_n for_o several_a reason_n 1._o because_o of_o the_o fountain_n whence_o they_o flow_v divine_a truth_n be_v of_o the_o breath_n of_o god_n therefore_o christ_n be_v call_v the_o word_n and_o say_v to_o come_v from_o the_o bosom_n of_o the_o father_n joh._n 1._o therefore_o by_o our_o saviour_n christ_n they_o be_v call_v holy_a nothing_o be_v or_o

be_v effectual_a to_o beget_v grace_n and_o produce_v holiness_n in_o the_o heart_n hence_o we_o find_v rom._n 1.16_o the_o gospel_n be_v call_v the_o power_n of_o god_n unto_o salvation_n and_o 1_o cor._n 5._o spirit_n and_o life_n all_o signify_v not_o only_o their_o power_n but_o purity_n 2._o why_o be_v these_o truth_n especial_o sacred_a and_o wholesome_a reproof_n call_v pearl_n 1._o for_o their_o own_o innate_a and_o inward_a preciousness_n though_o none_o in_o the_o world_n do_v own_o they_o or_o take_v notice_n of_o they_o but_o slight_v they_o yet_o they_o be_v precious_a 2._o they_o be_v so_o to_o they_o that_o receive_v they_o and_o possess_v they_o we_o find_v they_o therefore_o call_v riches_n under_o the_o notion_n of_o wisdom_n etc._n etc._n so_o that_o in_o effect_n these_o holy_a thing_n in_o the_o text_n and_o pearl_n speak_v of_o be_v divine_a truth_n wholesome_a reproof_n and_o admonition_n occasional_o give_v sect._n 2_o the_o next_o thing_n be_v to_o see_v who_o be_v the_o dog_n and_o the_o swine_n both_o signify_v one_o and_o the_o same_o sort_n of_o man_n in_o general_a yet_o they_o speak_v a_o distinction_n between_o obstinate_a and_o wicked_a man_n in_o the_o general_n none_o but_o obstinate_a and_o very_a irreprovable_a man_n these_o be_v the_o dog_n and_o swine_n they_o be_v call_v dog_n in_o relation_n to_o their_o cruelty_n fierceness_n and_o rage_n against_o the_o gospel_n when_o it_o be_v offer_v to_o they_o as_o a_o check_n to_o their_o lust_n and_o restraint_n to_o their_o abomination_n as_o dog_n enrage_v will_v fly_v at_o a_o man_n when_o they_o be_v whip_v and_o beat_v for_o the_o mischief_n they_o do_v they_o will_v turn_v again_o and_o fly_v at_o his_o face_n so_o say_v our_o saviour_n christ_n there_o be_v a_o sort_n of_o man_n in_o the_o world_n to_o who_o if_o you_o speak_v never_o so_o serious_o savoury_o charitable_o and_o holy_o yet_o like_o dog_n they_o will_v turn_v again_o and_o rend_v you_o by_o swine_n he_o denote_v another_o sort_n of_o obstinate_a opposer_n one_o denote_v they_o furious_a this_o luxurious_a so_o as_o to_o be_v grow_v in_o love_n with_o their_o filthy_a way_n their_o sin_n and_o abomination_n that_o they_o will_v not_o veil_v to_o wholesome_a save_a truth_n etc._n etc._n sect._n 3_o now_o let_v we_o see_v to_o our_o saviour_n reason_n first_o they_o will_v trample_v and_o that_o speak_v the_o ineffectualnesse_n of_o such_o holy_a and_o savoury_a truth_n when_o they_o meet_v with_o such_o uncapable_a subject_n as_o if_o christ_n have_v say_v never_o do_v it_o it_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n they_o will_v make_v no_o more_o of_o they_o than_o swine_n do_v of_o pearl_n when_o they_o be_v throw_v to_o they_o that_o speak_v the_o uselessenesse_n of_o they_o and_o of_o deal_n with_o such_o kind_n of_o man_n the_o second_o be_v draw_v from_o that_o injury_n that_o may_v accrue_v to_o the_o admonisher_n when_o the_o lust_n of_o obstinate_a man_n be_v reprove_v instead_o of_o do_v that_o they_o shall_v and_o say_v

policy_n shall_v now_o and_o then_o divide_v and_o we_o humble_o submit_v to_o god_n and_o desire_v rather_o to_o be_v faithful_a steward_n for_o he_o then_o provider_v for_o ourselves_o and_o we_o

much_o earthiness_n in_o all_o their_o heart_n as_o expose_v they_o to_o some_o temptation_n to_o use_v all_o endeavour_n for_o a_o comfortable_a subsistence_n in_o this_o life_n if_o any_o of_o they_o neglect_v both_o that_o and_o this_o and_o choose_v rather_o to_o venture_v the_o beg_n of_o their_o own_o bread_n then_o to_o throw_v the_o child_n bread_n to_o dog_n rather_o to_o prostitute_v their_o own_o name_n and_o lose_v their_o interest_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o some_o people_n then_o to_o prostitute_v the_o lord_n sacred_a ordinance_n and_o give_v his_o name_n to_o a_o
