by_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n a_o pardon_n with_o right_a to_o christ_n and_o life_n free_o give_v to_o all_o the_o faithful_a and_o their_o infant-seed_n as_o by_o they_o have_v full_a power_n

for_o the_o poor_a distress_a church_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v distract_v and_o distress_a thus_o even_o by_o such_o as_o be_v most_o devote_v to_o its_o service_n through_o the_o great_a weakness_n of_o our_o judgement_n and_o the_o unhappy_a passion_n and_o strive_n that_o thence_o follow_v either_o i_o or_o this_o worthy_a person_n be_v mistake_v or_o else_o we_o differ_v not_o when_o i_o look_v to_o the_o person_n only_o and_o not_o to_o the_o evidence_n nor_o to_o the_o consenter_n i_o have_v far_o great_a reason_n to_o suspect_v that_o i_o be_o like_a to_o err_v than_o he_o and_o if_o it_o prove_v so_o the_o evidence_n yet_o seem_v to_o i_o so_o full_a for_o what_o i_o hold_v that_o i_o be_o almost_o hopeless_a of_o be_v otherwise_o persuade_v and_o my_o judgement_n be_v not_o at_o my_o command_n how_o then_o shall_v i_o avoid_v the_o injury_n of_o soul_n but_o yet_o i_o think_v that_o to_o hold_v ourselves_o more_o guilty_a of_o our_o parent_n sin_n than_o we_o be_v be_v no_o dangerous_a damn_v error_n it_o may_v molest_v we_o but_o not_o undo_v we_o and_o i_o never_o see_v many_o much_o molest_v by_o it_o but_o if_o either_o we_o differ_v not_o when_o yet_o he_o give_v you_o so_o loud_a a_o alarm_n or_o if_o it_o be_v he_o that_o err_v indeed_o alas_o what_o must_v the_o church_n expect_v from_o the_o too_o great_a number_n of_o ignorant_a and_o ungodly_a teacher_n when_o it_o must_v be_v thus_o use_v by_o the_o learned_a and_o the_o godly_a my_o thought_n be_v 1._o that_o it_o deserve_v tear_n from_o faithful_a minister_n to_o observe_v that_o so_o considerable_a a_o part_n of_o the_o common_a guilt_n and_o misery_n of_o all_o mankind_n shall_v by_o godly_a man_n be_v no_o more_o confess_v and_o lament_v 2._o and_o that_o by_o those_o that_o for_o any_o denial_n or_o extenuation_n of_o our_o original_a sin_n as_o from_o adam_n be_v so_o heinous_o and_o just_o offend_v with_o the_o erroneous_a yea_o ready_a to_o vilify_v man_n as_o arminian_n if_o not_o socinian_n that_o they_o think_v come_v near_o it_o 3._o that_o ever_o the_o stream_n of_o a_o party_n reputation_n interest_n example_n or_o whatever_o else_o of_o that_o kind_n shall_v with_o so_o many_o good_a man_n have_v so_o great_a a_o power_n in_o make_v truth_n or_o error_n duty_n or_o sin_n good_a or_o evil_n orthodox_n or_o heretical_a in_o their_o conceit_n and_o so_o much_o faction_n he_o find_v in_o their_o religion_n 4._o that_o ever_o so_o many_o million_o shall_v be_v teach_v impenitency_n in_o so_o plain_a a_o case_n when_o repentance_n and_o confession_n have_v so_o considerable_a a_o place_n among_o the_o requisite_n to_o remission_n 5._o that_o ever_o so_o many_o million_o shall_v by_o preacher_n be_v teach_v that_o they_o have_v no_o need_n of_o a_o saviour_n nor_o of_o pardon_n nor_o to_o pray_v for_o pardon_n for_o so_o much_o of_o their_o guilty_a and_o punishment_n 6._o that_o ever_o so_o much_o of_o the_o plain_a stream_n of_o scripture-evidence_n can_v be_v deny_v and_o make_v light_n of_o by_o good_a man_n that_o cry_v up_o the_o scripture_n authority_n and_o sufficiency_n even_o when_o they_o can_v lay_v a_o great_a stress_n in_o some_o unprofitable_a hurtful_a controversy_n upon_o some_o one_o text_n who_o sense_n be_v not_o to_o be_v certain_o understand_v 7._o that_o ever_o good_a and_o learned_a teacher_n shall_v be_v so_o conceit_v of_o their_o own_o conception_n as_o in_o their_o confidence_n in_o such_o a_o cause_n to_o brand_v god_n truth_n with_o the_o name_n of_o error_n and_o their_o brethren_n as_o dangerous_a man_n for_o not_o err_v as_o they_o do_v 8._o and_o final_o that_o the_o poor_a people_n must_v be_v under_o such_o grievous_a perplex_v temptation_n as_o i_o before_o mention_v and_o that_o the_o papist_n shall_v be_v thus_o harden_v in_o their_o opinion_n that_o we_o shall_v never_o be_v at_o peace_n and_o concord_n unless_o we_o unite_v in_o their_o usurp_a tyrannical_a peacemaker_n and_o that_o poor_a scholar_n and_o young_a minister_n must_v be_v thus_o frighten_v from_o truth_n duty_n charity_n and_o peace_n and_o man_n make_v believe_v that_o the_o church_n be_v about_o to_o be_v set_v on_o fire_n if_o we_o be_v tell_v of_o that_o which_o be_v contrary_a to_o our_o former_a opinion_n this_o must_v be_v lament_v if_o it_o be_v not_o i_o but_o other_o that_o here_o err_v sect._n 45._o but_o yet_o before_o i_o end_v he_o call_v i_o so_o loud_a to_o consider_v of_o another_o matter_n that_o i_o must_v not_o deny_v his_o invitation_n in_o my_o direct_a for_o cure_n of_o church-division_n dir._n 42._o i_o say_v your_o belief_n of_o the_o necessary_a article_n of_o faith_n must_v be_v make_v your_o own_o and_o not_o take_v mere_o on_o the_o authority_n of_o any_o and_o in_o all_o point_n of_o belief_n and_o practice_n which_o be_v of_o necessity_n to_o salvation_n you_o must_v ever_o keep_v company_n with_o the_o universal_a church_n for_o it_o be_v not_o the_o church_n if_o it_o err_v in_o these_o and_o in_o matter_n of_o peace_n and_o concord_n the_o great_a part_n must_v be_v your_o guide_n that_o be_v caeteris_fw-la
