for_o first_o if_o what_o i_o have_v lay_v down_o be_v true_a it_o can_v be_v true_a that_o unscriptural_a imposition_n can_v be_v a_o warrantable_a cause_n of_o separation_n from_o a_o church_n suppose_v that_o by_o unscriptural_a be_v mean_v no_o more_o than_o only_o what_o be_v neither_o command_v nor_o forbid_v in_o the_o scripture_n for_o the_o action_n require_v by_o these_o unscriptural_a imposition_n be_v either_o in_o themselves_o lawful_a to_o be_v do_v or_o not_o lawful_a to_o be_v do_v if_o they_o be_v in_o themselves_o unlawful_a to_o be_v do_v than_o they_o do_v not_o fall_v under_o that_o notion_n of_o unscriptural_a we_o here_o speak_v of_o they_o be_v downright_a sin_n and_o so_o either_o particular_o or_o in_o the_o general_n forbid_v in_o the_o scripture_n if_o they_o be_v in_o themselves_o lawful_a to_o be_v do_v than_o it_o can_v be_v imagine_v how_o their_o be_v command_v can_v make_v they_o unlawful_a so_o that_o in_o this_o case_n there_o be_v no_o sin_n in_o yield_a obedience_n to_o the_o church_n and_o consequent_o no_o cause_n of_o withdraw_a our_o communion_n from_o it_o nor_o second_o can_v it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o church_n require_v from_o we_o any_o doubtful_a or_o suspect_a practice_n as_o condition_n of_o her_o communion_n be_v a_o just_a cause_n of_o separation_n for_o we_o must_v have_v at_o least_o as_o much_o certainty_n of_o the_o unlawfulness_n of_o the_o action_n enjoin_v as_o we_o have_v of_o our_o obligation_n to_o the_o authority_n that_o enjoin_v they_o before_o we_o withdraw_v our_o obedience_n to_o it_o otherwise_o we_o do_v not_o proceed_v upon_o safe_a ground_n but_o now_o we_o be_v absolute_o certain_a that_o god_n have_v command_v we_o to_o obey_v they_o that_o have_v the_o rule_n over_o we_o but_o we_o be_v not_o certain_a that_o the_o action_n we_o here_o speak_v of_o be_v any_o where_o forbid_v by_o he_o for_o if_o we_o be_v they_o will_v be_v no_o long_o doubtful_a or_o suspect_v they_o will_v be_v certain_a sin_n so_o that_o if_o we_o will_v follow_v the_o sure_a side_n as_o all_o christian_n in_o these_o case_n be_v bind_v to_o do_v we_o must_v continue_v our_o obedience_n to_o the_o church_n notwithstanding_o we_o suspect_v or_o doubt_v of_o the_o lawfulness_n of_o her_o command_n neither_o three_o can_v it_o be_v true_a that_o error_n in_o a_o church_n as_o to_o matter_n of_o doctrine_n or_o corruption_n as_o to_o matter_n of_o practice_n so_o long_o as_o those_o error_n and_o corruption_n be_v only_o suffer_v but_o not_o impose_v can_v be_v a_o sufficient_a cause_n of_o separation_n the_o reason_n be_v because_o these_o thing_n be_v not_o sin_n in_o we_o so_o long_o as_o we_o do_v not_o join_v with_o the_o church_n in_o they_o so_o that_o so_o long_o as_o we_o can_v communicate_v with_o a_o church_n without_o either_o profess_v her_o error_n or_o partake_v in_o her_o sinful_a practice_n as_o in_o the_o present_a case_n it_o be_v suppose_v we_o may_v do_v so_o long_o we_o be_v bind_v upon_o the_o principle_n before_o lay_v down_o not_o to_o separate_v from_o she_o neither_o in_o the_o four_o and_o last_o place_n be_v the_o enjoy_n a_o more_o profitable_a ministry_n or_o live_v under_o a_o more_o pure_a discipline_n in_o another_o church_n a_o just_a cause_n of_o forsake_v the_o communion_n of_o that_o whereof_o we_o be_v now_o member_n the_o reason_n be_v because_o we_o be_v not_o to_o commit_v the_o least_o crime_n for_o the_o attain_v the_o great_a good_a in_o the_o world_n now_o it_o be_v a_o crime_n to_o forsake_v the_o communion_n of_o the_o church_n whereof_o we_o be_v member_n so_o long_o as_o her_o communion_n be_v not_o sinful_a but_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o a_o less_o profitable_a ministry_n or_o a_o less_o pure_a discipline_n do_v not_o make_v her_o communion_n sinful_a therefore_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o a_o more_o profitable_a ministry_n or_o a_o more_o pure_a discipline_n can_v make_v a_o separation_n from_o her_o lawful_a the_o five_o and_o last_o proposition_n be_v that_o though_o we_o have_v a_o just_a cause_n to_o refuse_v communion_n with_o the_o church_n whereof_o we_o be_v member_n in_o some_o instance_n yet_o we_o be_v not_o therefore_o to_o proceed_v to_o so_o total_a a_o separation_n from_o it_o as_o to_o erect_v new_a church_n in_o contradistinction_n to_o it_o or_o to_o join_v with_o those_o that_o do_v the_o reason_n be_v clear_a from_o the_o forego_n principle_n viz._n because_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o obey_v as_o far_o as_o we_o can_v and_o where_o we_o can_v to_o suffer_v but_o at_o no_o hand_n to_o disturb_v the_o peace_n or_o break_v the_o unity_n of_o the_o church_n though_o we_o can_v comply_v with_o all_o that_o the_o church_n require_v of_o we_o yet_o still_o we_o must_v join_v with_o she_o in_o those_o other_o thing_n where_o we_o lawful_o can_v nay_o though_o the_o church_n shall_v require_v those_o thing_n as_o condition_n of_o her_o communion_n so_o that_o unless_o we_o conform_v to_o they_o we_o can_v at_o all_o communicate_v with_o she_o yet_o still_o there_o be_v a_o passive_a obedience_n due_a from_o we_o we_o must_v sit_v still_o and_o suffer_v and_o not_o make_v a_o rent_n in_o the_o church_n by_o set_v up_o one_o altar_n against_o another_o this_o be_v like_o the_o set_n up_o a_o new_a and_o a_o distinct_a government_n in_o the_o bowel_n of_o the_o state_n nothing_o can_v justify_v such_o a_o degree_n of_o departure_n as_o this_o but_o only_o one_o thing_n to_o wit_n so_o great_a and_o general_a a_o corruption_n of_o the_o church_n both_o in_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n that_o the_o salvation_n of_o all_o that_o communicate_v with_o she_o be_v thereby_o endanger_v which_o though_o it_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o member_n of_o the_o present_a church_n of_o rome_n yet_o i_o dare_v say_v few_o among_o we_o will_v affirm_v to_o be_v the_o case_n of_o they_o that_o communicate_v with_o the_o church_n of_o england_n thus_o have_v i_o as_o brief_o as_o i_o can_v represent_v to_o you_o the_o particular_n of_o that_o duty_n we_o owe_v to_o our_o common_a mother_n in_o the_o preservation_n of_o her_o unity_n and_o communion_n and_o i_o hope_v i_o have_v not_o be_v so_o zealous_a for_o peace_n as_o to_o have_v be_v at_o all_o injurious_a to_o truth_n i_o be_o confident_a i_o have_v say_v nothing_o but_o what_o be_v very_o agreeable_a to_o scripture_n and_o reason_n and_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o best_a and_o ancient_a christian_n and_o i_o be_o certain_a i_o have_v not_o entrench_v upon_o any_o of_o those_o ground_n upon_o which_o our_o ancestor_n proceed_v to_o the_o reformation_n of_o religion_n among_o we_o and_o for_o most_o of_o the_o thing_n here_o deliver_v we_o have_v also_o the_o suffrage_n of_o several_a and_o those_o the_o most_o learned_a and_o moderate_a of_o our_o dissent_v brethren_n and_o now_o if_o after_o this_o any_o one_o be_v offend_v as_o indeed_o these_o kind_n of_o discourse_n be_v seldom_o very_o acceptable_a all_o i_o can_v say_v be_v this_o that_o the_o truth_n here_o deliver_v be_v real_o of_o so_o great_a importance_n to_o religion_n and_o the_o public_a peace_n that_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v dissemble_v or_o suppress_v for_o any_o bad_a reception_n they_o may_v meet_v with_o from_o some_o man_n but_o as_o for_o the_o manner_n of_o deliver_v they_o i_o have_v take_v all_o the_o care_n i_o can_v not_o to_o give_v offence_n to_o any_o i_o now_o pass_v on_o to_o the_o second_o part_n of_o my_o

to_o direct_v you_o to_o the_o pursuit_n of_o those_o thing_n that_o make_v for_o peace_n as_o peace_n signify_v mutual_a love_n and_o charity_n in_o opposition_n to_o strife_n and_o bitterness_n and_o contention_n the_o thing_n that_o make_v for_o peace_n in_o this_o sense_n be_v more_o especial_o these_o that_o follow_v which_o i_o shall_v deliver_v by_o way_n of_o rule_n and_o advice_n the_o first_o rule_n be_v to_o distinguish_v careful_o between_o matter_n of_o faith_n and_o matter_n of_o opinion_n and_o as_o to_o these_o latter_a to_o be_v willing_a that_o every_o one_o shall_v enjoy_v the_o liberty_n of_o judge_v for_o himself_o this_o be_v one_o thing_n that_o will_v help_v very_o much_o to_o the_o extinguish_n of_o those_o unnatural_a heat_n and_o animosity_n which_o have_v long_o be_v the_o reproach_n of_o christian_n if_o man_n will_v set_v no_o great_a value_n upon_o their_o notion_n and_o opinion_n than_o they_o do_v deserve_v if_o they_o will_v make_v a_o difference_n between_o necessary_a point_n and_o those_o that_o be_v not_o so_o and_o in_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o
great_a than_o this_o that_o some_o man_n in_o these_o matter_n speak_v more_o clear_o and_o full_o other_o more_o imperfect_o and_o obscure_o some_o man_n convey_v their_o sense_n in_o plain_a and_o proper_a word_n other_o delight_v in_o metaphor_n and_o do_v perhaps_o too_o far_o extend_v the_o figurative_a expression_n of_o scripture_n some_o reason_n more_o close_o and_o upon_o more_o certain_a principle_n other_o possible_o may_v proceed_v upon_o weak_a ground_n and_o misapply_v text_n of_o scripture_n and_o discourse_n more_o loose_o but_o both_o party_n especial_o the_o more_o moderate_a of_o both_o seem_v to_o drive_v at_o much_o what_o the_o same_o thing_n though_o by_o different_a way_n as_o appear_v from_o this_o that_o be_v interrogated_a concern_v the_o consequence_n of_o their_o several_a opinion_n they_o general_o agree_v in_o admit_v or_o reject_v the_o same_o but_o four_a another_o thing_n that_o will_v make_v for_o peace_n be_v this_o never_o to_o charge_n upon_o man_n the_o consequence_n of_o their_o opinion_n when_o they_o express_o disow_v they_o this_o be_v another_o thing_n that_o do_v huge_o tend_v to_o widen_v our_o difference_n and_o to_o exasperate_v man_n spirit_n one_o against_o another_o when_o have_v examine_v some_o opinion_n of_o a_o man_n or_o party_n of_o man_n and_o find_v very_o great_a absurdity_n and_o evil_a consequence_n necessary_o to_o flow_v from_o it_o we_o present_o throw_v all_o those_o into_o the_o dish_n of_o they_o that_o hold_v the_o opinion_n as_o if_o they_o can_v not_o own_o the_o one_o but_o they_o must_v necessary_o own_v the_o other_o whereas_o indeed_o the_o man_n we_o thus_o charge_v may_v be_v so_o innocent_a in_o this_o matter_n that_o they_o do_v not_o in_o the_o least_o dream_n of_o such_o consequence_n or_o if_o they_o do_v they_o will_v be_v so_o far_o from_o own_v they_o that_o they_o will_v abhor_v the_o opinion_n for_o their_o sake_n to_o give_v you_o a_o instance_n or_o two_o in_o this_o matter_n it_o be_v a_o doctrine_n maintain_v by_o some_o that_o god_n will_v be_v the_o rule_n of_o justice_n or_o that_o every_o thing_n be_v therefore_o just_a or_o good_a because_o god_n will_v it_o those_o that_o be_v concern_v to_o oppose_v this_o doctrine_n do_v contend_v that_o if_o this_o doctrine_n be_v true_a it_o will_v necessary_o follow_v that_o no_o man_n

out_o yet_o i_o dare_v say_v those_o that_o hold_v the_o foresay_a doctrine_n will_v be_v very_o angry_a and_o have_v good_a reason_n so_o to_o be_v if_o they_o be_v tell_v that_o they_o do_v not_o

that_o a_o man_n may_v believe_v a_o proposition_n and_o not_o believe_v all_o that_o follow_v from_o it_o not_o but_o that_o all_o the_o deduction_n from_o a_o proposition_n be_v equal_o true_a and_o
