who_o you_o say_v shall_v at_o the_o last_o day_n be_v judge_v not_o as_o infidel_n but_o as_o wicked_a and_o apostate_n christian_n 7._o the_o seven_o query_n 62._o which_o go_v upon_o that_o

promise_n to_o his_o apostle_n which_o you_o seem_v to_o suppose_v to_o go_v along_o with_o church-governor_n in_o succession_n 107._o as_o distinguish_v from_o the_o body_n of_o christian_n and_o without_o allow_v private_a christian_n that_o share_v which_o the_o word_n of_o the_o promise_n import_n you_o intimate_v my_o design_v to_o confute_v our_o saviour_n and_o burlesque_fw-la his_o

and_o to_o expound_v it_o to_o a_o plain_a and_o easy_a sense_n such_o as_o be_v agreeable_a to_o the_o understanding_n of_o man_n and_o worthy_a of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v to_o burlesque_fw-la scripture_n i_o acknowledge_v the_o charge_n to_o my_o first_o qustion_n whether_o our_o saviour_n promise_n of_o divine_a assistance_n do_v not_o extend_v to_o all_o the_o member_n of_o the_o church_n consider_v every_o man_n in_o his_o respective_a station_n and_o capacity_n as_o well_o as_o to_o the_o apostle_n as_o church-governor_n you_o answer_v 23._o that_o there_o be_v promise_n which_o relate_v to_o the_o whole_a church_n and_o promise_v which_o belong_v to_o particular_a christian_n as_o well_o as_o promise_n which_o relate_v particular_o to_o the_o apostle_n and_o governor_n of_o the_o church_n well_o for_o the_o comfort_n of_o we_o poor_a layman_n there_o be_v some_o promise_n which_o relate_v to_o we_o it_o be_v so_o than_o i_o may_v well_o ask_v 2._o whether_o it_o signify_v any_o thing_n to_o say_v there_o be_v no_o promise_n to_o particular_a church_n provide_v there_o be_v to_o particular_a person_n such_o as_o be_v in_o charity_n with_o all_o

as_o member_n of_o the_o church_n that_o be_v of_o the_o visible_a church_n under_o church-officer_n if_o you_o answer_v to_o the_o purpose_n you_o add_v indeed_o when_o communion_n may_v be_v have_v upon_o lawful_a term_n i_o hope_v this_o imply_v that_o it_o be_v possible_a the_o term_n may_v be_v unlawful_a which_o yield_v i_o my_o four_o question_n upon_o this_o matter_n 4._o but_o it_o likewise_o yield_v that_o if_o the_o term_n be_v unlawful_a private_a christian_n be_v entitle_v to_o these_o promise_n though_o not_o visible_o admit_v into_o a_o church-state_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o what_o you_o all_o along_o drive_v at_o but_o it_o seem_v however_o your_o charity_n to_o these_o man_n who_o think_v the_o term_n such_o as_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o comply_v with_o be_v so_o great_a 24._o to_o believe_v they_o guilty_a of_o schism_n as_o adhere_v to_o their_o own_o private_a fancy_n in_o opposition_n to_o church-authority_n out_o of_o pride_n and_o opinionativeness_n which_o god_n alone_o can_v judge_n 3._o the_o three_o query_n be_v whether_o if_o the_o promise_v you_o mention_v be_v confine_v to_o the_o apostle_n as_o church-governor_n it_o will_v not_o exclude_v the_o civil_a power_n to_o which_o you_o answer_v 24._o that_o the_o civil_a and_o ecclesiastical_a power_n be_v very_o distinct_a but_o very_o consistent_a but_o such_o a_o power_n in_o the_o church-officer_n as_o will_v make_v they_o the_o church-representative_a and_o prevent_v a_o national_a reformation_n though_o by_o the_o civil_a power_n be_v of_o another_o
