A86891 A second vindication of a disciplinary, anti-Erastian, orthodox free-admission to the Lords-Supper; or, The state of this controversie revised and proposed: for the fuller understanding of the most, as to the grounds whereon it stands; and more especially for the ease, and clearer proceeding of those, that shall write about it, whether for it, or against it. / By John Humfrey, min: of Froome.

admitter_n in_o regard_n christ_n act_v say_v they_o as_o a_o minister_n be_v not_o to_o take_v notice_n of_o what_o he_o know_v of_o judas_n as_o he_o be_v god_n yet_o it_o be_v apparent_a that_o

they_o be_v such_o as_o judas_n be_v that_o be_v at_o least_o unregenerate_a if_o not_o scandalous_a also_o it_o may_v be_v reply_v as_o to_o the_o part_n of_o the_o admitter_n that_o christ_n know_v of_o judas_n compact_n which_o no_o doubt_n be_v a_o high_a scandal_n in_o its_o self_n be_v inductive_a of_o sin_n and_o ruin_n to_o the_o jew_n with_o who_o he_o deal_v not_o only_o as_o god_n but_o

it_o unquestionable_o as_o mediator_n it_o be_v god_n only_o can_v give_v law_n to_o bind_v the_o conscience_n now_o in_o the_o institution_n and_o give_v the_o precept_n he_o direct_v the_o same_o

when_o man_n be_v due_o admonish_v convict_v and_o censure_v as_o they_o ought_v then_o be_v there_o the_o virtue_n of_o a_o ordinance_n which_o may_v be_v expect_v to_o reduce_v they_o for_o god_n have_v appoint_v his_o ordinance_n of_o discipline_n for_o this_o purpose_n to_o bring_v man_n to_o repentance_n on_o the_o contrary_a for_o man_n to_o make_v a_o business_n only_o of_o keep_v

reclaim_v ordinance_n if_o they_o do_v how_o shall_v they_o give_v a_o power_n and_o promise_v to_o it_o for_o this_o effect_n let_v those_o minister_n consider_v that_o have_v keep_v never_o so_o many_o away_o even_o whole_a congregation_n from_o the_o sacrament_n for_o many_o year_n together_o what_o be_v the_o fruit_n they_o have_v reap_v by_o it_o be_v their_o people_n indeed_o ever_o the_o better_a for_o it_o do_v it_o not_o rather_o serve_v only_o to_o breed_v indignation_n to_o themselves_o make_v their_o suspension_n to_o be_v flight_v the_o sacrament_n itself_o to_o be_v neglect_v so_o that_o the_o most_o of_o their_o people_n care_v not_o at_o all_o to_o come_v thither_o if_o this_o indeed_o be_v the_o fruit_n then_o will_v i_o thus_o argue_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n as_o exclusion_n from_o the_o church_n and_o sacrament_n be_v one_o be_v to_o be_v use_v only_o for_o edification_n and_o not_o destruction_n but_o to_o exclude_v man_n the_o sacrament_n without_o

command_v we_o express_o not_o to_o give_v holy_a thing_n to_o dog_n and_o swine_n as_o before_o but_o to_o use_v suspension_n without_o discipline_n or_o a_o due_a authoritative_a sentence_n as_o shall_v put_v a_o reverence_n on_o it_o be_v but_o likely_a to_o cast_v it_o to_o such_o as_o will_v trample_v upon_o it_o and_o turn_v again_o and_o rend_v the_o doer_n and_o consequent_o therefore_o unless_o minister_n will_v purposely_o go_v about_o to_o make_v man_n dog_n and_o swine_n that_o else_o will_v not_o be_v so_o in_o the_o sense_n of_o this_o text_n they_o be_v bind_v direct_o at_o least_o when_o they_o see_v plain_o this_o be_v like_a to_o be_v the_o issue_n by_o this_o very_a precept_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v that_o happy_o scruple_n they_o main_o to_o the_o contrary_a to_o

only_o for_o the_o complete_n my_o mind_n in_o this_o controversy_n the_o one_o be_v whereas_o i_o hold_v in_o the_o first_o question_n that_o no_o argument_n from_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o sacrament_n alone_o without_o discipline_n will_v be_v of_o validity_n for_o suspension_n it_o may_v be_v require_v that_o something_o be_v condescend_v to_o the_o tenderness_n of_o most_o man_n spirit_n and_o practice_n herein_o before_o censure_n the_o other_o be_v whereas_o i_o hold_v in_o the_o second_o question_n that_o those_o argument_n alone_o be_v valid_a for_o exclusion_n from_o the_o sacrament_n that_o respect_v it_o only_o as_o a_o part_n of_o church-communion_n and_o consequent_o that_o a_o person_n must_v be_v excommunicate_a or_o exclude_v church-communion_n in_o general_n or_o else_o he_o can_v be_v legal_o exclude_v the_o supper_n it_o may_v be_v require_v that_o there_o be_v some_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d some_o salve_n find_v out_o here_o also_o for_o the_o abatement_n of_o so_o much_o rigour_n in_o censure_n that_o a_o person_n may_v be_v permit_v some_o of_o the_o ordinance_n as_o the_o word_n while_o he_o be_v debar_v the_o sacrament_n and_o no_o breach_n be_v make_v on_o excommunication_n if_o these_o two_o thing_n can_v but_o be_v do_v with_o reasonable_a satisfaction_n i_o hope_v it_o will_v serve_v to_o take_v away_o the_o prejudice_n of_o many_o sober_a and_o moderate_a spirit_n from_o my_o opinion_n the_o drift_n whereof_o be_v not_o at_o all_o to_o do_v the_o pious_a ministry_n any_o harm_n let_v not_o my_o

the_o former_a question_n how_o far_o those_o that_o be_v more_o tender_a in_o their_o spirit_n and_o practice_n may_v go_v towards_o withhold_a the_o sacrament_n from_o such_o they_o conceive_v

indulgence_n to_o bring_v the_o sinner_n to_o repentance_n it_o be_v manifest_a that_o the_o primitive_a christian_a church_n be_v wont_a to_o permit_v a_o heathen_a or_o those_o that_o be_v without_o to_o be_v present_a in_o their_o assembly_n at_o the_o word_n if_o not_o at_o prayer_n and_o some_o other_o ordinance_n for_o their_o conviction_n as_o appear_v 1_o cor._n 14._o according_a to_o this_o precedent_n it_o be_v my_o opinion_n then_o in_o short_a that_o a_o person_n excommunicate_a may_v be_v admit_v to_o a_o ordinance_n or_o ordinance_n as_o a_o heathen_a into_o which_o

even_o serve_v the_o turn_n of_o my_o very_a adversary_n and_o yet_o be_v no_o dishight_n or_o prejudice_n to_o that_o latitude_n of_o excommunication_n which_o the_o truth_n dictate_v and_o must_v

i_o answer_v that_o doctrine_n about_o admission_n that_o maintain_v excommunication_n in_o point_n of_o offend_v can_v be_v loose_a towards_o the_o offender_n and_o if_o a_o man_n have_v not_o

and_o then_o i_o hope_v all_o will_v be_v reconcile_v and_o satisfy_v and_o thus_o i_o have_v now_o finish_v my_o purpose_n endeavour_v to_o keep_v in_o a_o way_n of_o moderation_n that_o i_o may_v
