from_o heaven_n shall_v come_v and_o teach_v any_o other_o than_o what_o we_o have_v already_o receive_v he_o ought_v to_o be_v accurse_a and_o therefore_o the_o near_a we_o come_v to_o the_o first_o

thus_o that_o sweet_a harmony_n of_o the_o primitive_a christian_n whereby_o they_o preserve_v their_o body_n sound_v against_o the_o malice_n of_o heretic_n and_o schismatic_n enjoy_v free_a

they_o will_v draw_v it_o in_o to_o be_v useful_a among_o matter_n of_o this_o nature_n nothing_o have_v find_v more_o patron_n than_o schism_n some_o have_v shuffle_v it_o to_o and_o fro_o till_o

rather_o to_o make_v a_o discovery_n of_o it_o that_o the_o rock_n appear_v we_o may_v be_v the_o better_a able_a to_o avoid_v it_o two_o schism_n in_o its_o general_a notion_n signify_v any_o rent_n rupture_n division_n separation_n or_o solution_n of_o continuity_n but_o in_o a_o ecclesiastical_a sense_n as_o apply_v to_o the_o church_n it_o denote_v some_o breach_n or_o separation_n among_o the_o member_n or_o part_n of_o that_o body_n grow_v so_o high_a as_o to_o cause_v bandy_n into_o party_n and_o set_v up_o distinct_a and_o opposite_a communion_n or_o the_o like_a but_o because_o all_o separation_n be_v not_o schism_n and_o that_o which_o be_v be_v not_o always_o sinful_a therefore_o it_o may_v be_v convenient_a to_o inquire_v by_o what_o mean_v separation_n be_v make_v what_o separation_n be_v schism_n and_o what_o schism_n be_v sinful_a iii_o those_o person_n who_o be_v so_o far_o from_o any_o communion_n in_o the_o church_n that_o they_o never_o do_v or_o will_v receive_v and_o embrace_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n jesus_n be_v real_o separate_v and_o exclude_v from_o his_o body_n the_o church_n but_o then_o in_o this_o they_o can_v proper_o be_v say_v to_o
