A86004 Nihil respondes: or, A discovery of the extream unsatisfactorinesse of Master Colemans peece, published last weeke under the title of A brotherly examination re-examined. Wherein, his self-contradictions: his yeelding of some things, and not answering to other things objected against him: his abusing of Scripture: his errors in divinity: his abusing of the Parliament, and indangering their authority: his abusing of the Assembly: his calumnies, and namely against the Church of Scotland, and against my selfe: the repugnancy of his doctrin to the solemne League and Covenant, are plainly demonstrated. / By George Gillespie minister at Edenburgh. Published by authority. Gillespie, George, 1613-1648. 1645 (1645) Wing G755; Thomason E309_9; ESTC R200413 26,848 36

along_o with_o his_o re-examination_n pag._n 14._o he_o explain_v himself_o and_o i_o thus_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v that_o i_o advise_v the_o parliament_n to_o lay_v no_o burden_n of_o government_n

to_o maintain_v that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o felony_n sure_o this_o be_v inconsistent_a with_o their_o oath_n so_o he_o that_o swear_v to_o endeavour_v the_o reformation_n of_o

of_o we_o to_o endeavour_v the_o preservation_n of_o the_o reform_a religion_n in_o the_o church_n of_o scotland_n in_o doctrine_n worship_n discipline_n and_o government_n where_o all_o know_v that_o

and_o church-discipline_n distinct_a both_o from_o doctrine_n and_o worship_n and_o from_o civil_a government_n which_o by_o the_o way_n how_o mr_n coleman_n endeavour_v to_o preserve_v i_o will_v not_o now_o say_v but_o leave_v it_o to_o other_o to_o judge_v therefore_o in_o that_o which_o immediate_o follow_v our_o endeavour_v the_o reformation_n of_o religion_n in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o england_n and_o ireland_n in_o doctrine_n worship_n discipline_n and_o government_n the_o word_n discipline_n and_o government_n must_v needs_o be_v understand_v in_o the_o same_o sense_n thus_o far_o that_o it_o be_v a_o church-discipline_n and_o a_o church-government_n distinct_a from_o the_o civil_a power_n of_o the_o magistrate_n and_o distinct_a also_o from_o doctrine_n and_o worship_n in_o the_o church_n for_o we_o can_v make_v these_o word_n discipline_n and_o government_n in_o one_o and_o the_o same_o article_n of_o a_o solemn_a oath_n and_o covenant_n to_o suffer_v two_o sense_n

speak_v so_o as_o none_o may_v understand_v it_o the_o other_o argument_n which_o i_o now_o add_v be_v this_o in_o the_o three_o part_n of_o that_o first_o article_n we_o swear_v that_o we_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o bring_v the_o church_n of_o god_n in_o the_o three_o kingdom_n to_o the_o near_a conjunction_n and_o uniformity_n in_o religion_n confession_n of_o faith_n form_n of_o church_n

i_o mean_v all_o these_o be_v matter_n of_o religion_n none_o of_o they_o civil_a matter_n 2._o it_o be_v suppose_v there_o be_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o church_n government_n distinct_a from_o civil_a

and_o otherwise_o it_o be_v a_o unswear_n of_o what_o be_v swear_v in_o the_o first_o part_n of_o that_o article_n but_o it_o tie_v we_o to_o endeavour_v the_o near_a conjunction_n and_o uniformity_n in_o a_o form_n of_o church_n government_n which_o be_v a_o vain_a and_o rash_a oath_n if_o we_o be_v not_o tie_v to_o a_o church_n government_n in_o general_a and_o that_o as_o a_o matter_n of_o

word_n and_o sacrament_n can_v here_o help_v he_o from_o these_o two_o argument_n beside_o all_o be_v say_v before_o i_o conclude_v that_o the_o covenant_n do_v undeniable_o suppose_v and_o plain_o hold_v forth_o this_o thing_n as_o most_o necessary_a and_o uncontrover●able_a that_o there_o ought_v to_o be_v a_o church-government_n which_o be_v both_o distinct_a from_o the_o gavel-government_n
