A42186	A glass for the people of New England, in which they may see themselves and spirits, and if not too late, repent and turn from their abominable ways and cursed contrivances that so the Lord God may turn away his wrath, which he will bring upon them, it they repent not, for their blasphemies against himself, and for all the murders and cruelties done to his tender people, ever since they usurped authority to banish, hang, whip, and cut off ears, and spoil the goods of dissenters from them in religious matters, while themselves disown infallibility in those things / by S. G.	S. G. (Samuel Groome), d. 1683.; Fox, George, 1624-1691.; Tyso, John, d. 1700.	1676 (1676)	Wing G2065; ESTC R10937	29,049	44

heretical_a and_o seditious_a sermon_n tend_v to_o mutiny_n and_o disturbance_n wheelwright_n bid_v they_o prove_v it_o by_o scripture_n and_o so_o do_v the_o governor_n and_o many_o other_o who_o

but_o so_o mad_a be_v the_o great_a part_n of_o they_o that_o they_o will_v proceed_v against_o wheelwright_n and_o his_o doctrine_n right_a or_o wrong_n but_o he_o will_v not_o answer_v to_o their_o

that_o the_o knowledge_n of_o our_o sanctification_n as_o well_o as_o our_o justification_n be_v only_o by_o faith_n in_o christ_n and_o that_o in_o the_o ●ovenant_n of_o grace_n nothing_o be_v

the_o doctrine_n preach_v in_o new-england_n for_o say_v spencer_n it_o be_v common_o teach_v in_o new-england_n that_o a_o man_n may_v prove_v his_o justificaiion_n by_o his_o sanctification_n and_o so_o far_a spencer_n in_o this_o place_n well_o hear_v john_n endicott_n this_o be_v conclude_v a_o false_a doctrine_n because_o it_o be_v a_o doctrine_n against_o all_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o

to_o acquit_v he_o they_o find_v out_o another_o way_n to_o bring_v their_o wicked_a end_n to_o pass_v and_o say_v spencer_n the_o matter_n in_o hand_n be_v not_o th●_n doctrine_n whether_o it_o be_v true_a or_o false_a but_o the_o question_n be_v whether_o or_o not_o mr._n wheelwright_n have_v stir_v up_o mutiny_n in_o the_o country_n and_o cast_v aspersion_n upon_o the_o minister_n and_o the_o

commit_v by_o they_o both_o in_o new-england_n and_o also_o here_o in_o england_n the_o lord_n by_o sundry_a way_n and_o in_o divers_a manner_n have_v plead_v with_o some_o of_o they_o and_o some_o be_v harden_v against_o a_o day_n of_o judgement_n which_o certain_o will_v overtake_v they_o in_o this_o life_n or_o in_o the_o life_n and_o judgement_n that_o be_v to_o come_v but_o that_o which_o be_v most_o to_o be_v lament_v that_o those_o which_o once_o have_v a_o good_a testimony_n in_o their_o heart_n and_o mouth_n for_o god_n and_o his_o light_n and_o spiritual_a appearance_n and_o they_o not_o be_v faithful_a and_o constant_a to_o that_o which_o be_v make_v manifest_a and_o commit_v to_o they_o it_o be_v even_o happen_v to_o they_o according_a to_o the_o say_v of_o the_o lord_n god_n by_o the_o mouth_n of_o his_o prophet_n that_o in_o the_o day_n in_o which_o a_o righteous_a man_n turn_v from_o his_o righteousness_n and_o do_v wicked_o all_o the_o righteousness_n that_o he_o have_v do_v shall_v be_v forget_v and_o in_o the_o sin_n which_o he_o do_v he_o shall_v sure_o die_v the_o death_n and_o so_o i_o will_v leave_v john_n cotton_n and_o john_n wheel_n wright_n and_o
