true_a to_o their_o 17._o principle_n and_o if_o in_o any_o thing_n their_o principle_n exceed_v or_o go_v beyond_o other_o they_o must_v not_o come_v down_o to_o they_o although_o they_o carry_v the_o odium_fw-la and_o prejudice_n of_o a_o separation_n for_o it_o but_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o the_o other_o to_o come_v to_o they_o which_o if_o they_o will_v not_o like_v rather_o to_o correspond_v with_o the_o world_n how_o can_v it_o be_v help_v or_o who_o fault_n be_v it_o the_o second_o question_n be_v whether_o for_o the_o make_v any_o man_n or_o woman_n a_o member_n of_o the_o church_n it_o be_v requisite_a and_o necessary_a to_o their_o believe_v and_o be_v baptise_v that_o they_o shall_v walk_v some_o day_n week_n month_n perhaps_o year_n with_o they_o etc._n etc._n answ._n who_o hold_v it_o so_o but_o only_o that_o they_o appear_v to_o the_o church_n that_o receive_v they_o to_o be_v believer_n let_v the_o mean_n of_o the_o church_n knowledge_n or_o discovery_n be_v what_o it_o will_v as_o it_o be_v various_a so_o that_o it_o be_v not_o extraordinary_a and_o miraculous_a we_o dare_v not_o trust_v enthusiasm_n nor_o blind_a charity_n and_o to_o the_o other_o part_n of_o this_o quere_n whether_o confession_n be_v require_v etc._n etc._n i_o answer_v confession_n be_v good_a and_o may_v be_v to_o edification_n but_o be_v not_o absolute_o necessary_a therefore_o not_o insist_v upon_o as_o the_o condition_n of_o admission_n these_o thing_n be_v of_o fact_n and_o practice_n let_v a_o brief_a account_n suffice_v for_o the_o three_o question_n whether_o to_o the_o admission_n of_o any_o to_o membership_n or_o office-bearing_n in_o a_o church_n the_o consent_n of_o the_o congregation_n or_o the_o major_a part_n thereof_o as_o well_o as_o officer_n be_v requisite_a we_o hold_v it_o yea_o and_o that_o as_o well_o in_o regard_n every_o one_o take_v a_o charge_n upon_o he_o as_o in_o respect_n of_o interest_n for_o the_o four_o quere_n of_o a_o explicit_a covenant_n whether_o necessary_a to_o admission_n ans._n i_o know_v not_o why_o it_o shall_v be_v more_o inconvenient_a than_o a_o public_a national_a covenant_n which_o the_o doctor_n by_o nation_n be_v breed_v to_o approve_v high_o of_o but_o necessary_a we_o hold_v it_o not_o therefore_o not_o as_o the_o condition_n of_o admission_n so_o that_o we_o see_v cause_n to_o judge_v it_o not_o to_o be_v scruple_v in_o a_o way_n of_o provision_n for_o a_o arbitrary_a liberty_n of_o a_o rove_a and_o unsettle_a mind_n to_o slip_v the_o knot_n when_o they_o dislike_v and_o dispense_v from_o duty_n and_o obligation_n when_o they_o please_v but_o that_o it_o be_v mere_o a_o conscientious_a scruple_n because_o they_o see_v not_o sufficient_a ground_n for_o it_o out_o of_o the_o word_n to_o make_v it_o necessary_a yet_o will_v own_o a_o particular_a tie_n and_o relation_n for_o spiritual_a edification_n in_o such_o case_n who_o will_v deny_v these_o admission_n for_o the_o five_o question_n of_o woman_n vote_n whether_o they_o be_v admit_v in_o election_n etc._n etc._n i_o remember_v a_o question_n once_o in_o the_o school_n a_o doctoris_fw-la uxor_fw-la eodem_fw-la gaudeat_fw-la privilegio_fw-la quo_fw-la maritus_fw-la but_o as_o for_o this_o of_o woman_n vote_v in_o the_o church_n we_o have_v no_o such_o custom_n nor_o any_o of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n that_o i_o know_v of_o for_o the_o last_o question_n or_o quarrelsome_a captious_a quere_n rather_o whether_o the_o practice_n and_o preach_n of_o all_o these_o thing_n etc._n etc._n be_v to_o set_v up_o christ_n as_o king_n upon_o his_o throne_n i_o answer_v no_o question_n but_o the_o purge_n and_o purify_n of_o church-ordinance_n and_o fellowship_n which_o some_o contend_v for_o be_v to_o set_v christ_n upon_o a_o high_a throne_n visible_a to_o the_o world_n then_o by_o some_o other_o way_n he_o be_v though_o we_o deny_v not_o he_o may_v have_v a_o throne_n in_o many_o congregation_n not_o of_o this_o mould_n and_o may_v be_v very_o high_o advance_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o many_o of_o our_o brethren_n who_o never_o yet_o give_v their_o name_n to_o the_o congregational_a way_n in_o relation_n to_o who_o my_o prayer_n be_v that_o if_o they_o be_v in_o the_o right_a the_o lord_n will_v make_v they_o joyful_a instrument_n of_o instruct_v we_o with_o
