for_o he_o speak_v as_o unto_o wise_a man_n able_a to_o judge_v what_o he_o say_v and_o mean_v as_o himself_o testify_v of_o they_o 1_o cor._n 10.15_o but_o we_o have_v seek_v out_o many_o invention_n and_o though_o they_o may_v be_v plain_a case_n with_o we_o be_v thus_o determine_v aforchand_o long_o ago_o by_o a_o apostle_n we_o have_v fold_v they_o and_o perplex_v they_o with_o many_o

your_o bolt_n at_o both_o at_o once_o and_o thus_o give_v the_o genuine_a sense_n and_o meaning_n as_o you_o boast_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o this_o scripture_n that_o the_o former_a resolution_n apostolical_a be_v to_o be_v take_v of_o matrimonial_a sanctification_n as_o thus_o the_o unbelieving_a wife_n be_v sanctify_v by_o the_o believe_a husband_n so_o that_o they_o be_v lawful_o husband_n and_o wife_n and_o the_o latter_a resolution_n apostolical_a be_v to_o be_v take_v of_o natural_a holiness_n as_o you_o call_v it_o in_o your_o three_o consideration_n so_o as_o the_o child_n of_o such_o parent_n be_v not_o unclean_a but_o holy_a that_o be_v not_o bastard_n but_o legitimate_n and_o now_o i_o must_v skip_v over_o to_o that_o three_o consideration_n mention_v to_o find_v out_o either_o some_o text_n of_o scripture_n or_o some_o sound_n of_o reason_n there_o be_v none_o betwixt_o this_o and_o that_o there_o indeed_o i_o find_v cite_v by_o you_o 1_o thess_n 4.3_o 4._o wherein_o thus_o you_o proceed_v in_o the_o 3._o verse_n the_o apostle_n say_v for_o this_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n even_o your_o sanctificaion_n or_o holiness_n what_o be_v this_o sanctification_n or_o holiness_n it_o be_v lay_v down_o in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o the_o verse_n in_o those_o word_n that_o you_o shall_v abstam_fw-la from_o fornication_n so_o that_o from_o hence_o it_o appear_v what_o holiness_n the_o apostle_n mean_v before_o even_o a_o natural_a holiness_n or_o clean_a e●_n cleanness_n that_o be_v not_o bear_v of_o fornication_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v in_o the_o 4._o verse_n that_o every_o one_o of_o you_o shall_v know_v how_o to_o posese_v possess_v his_o vesel_n vessel_n in_o sanctification_n and_o honour_n speak_v of_o natural_a holiness_n and_o cleanness_n of_o keep_v their_o body_n etc._n etc._n and_o so_o their_o child_n come_v to_o be_v clean_a and_o holy_a else_o be_v they_o unclean_a and_o unholy_a first_o what_o a_o reasoner_n be_v you_o yourself_o may_v see_v by_o make_v the_o 4_o verse_n a_o reason_n of_o the_o 3._o verse_n which_o be_v only_o a_o explication_n of_o it_o as_o to_o the_o person_n to_o who_o he_o prescribe_v the_o duty_n of_o abstain_v from_o fornication_n and_o to_o the_o mean_n thereof_o that_o every_o one_o shall_v keep_v his_o vessel_n or_o body_n in_o sanctification_n etc._n etc._n which_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n in_o substance_n with_o the_o former_a second_o you_o mis-name_n the_o thing_n as_o well_o as_o mistake_v the_o reason_n for_o it_o be_v not_o a_o natural_a holiness_n or_o cleanness_n that_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o or_o for_o but_o a_o conjugal_a or_o civil_a or_o moral_a one_o nor_o be_v fornication_n or_o uncleanness_n here_o any_o natural_a but_o a_o moral_a civil_a or_o conjugal_a thing_n or_o otherwise_o a_o unconjugal_a uncivil_a and_o immoral_a as_o all_o other_o vice_n and_o sin_n be_v three_o if_o this_o text_n must_v prove_v the_o former_a text_n of_o the_o corinthian_n to_o be_v mean_v only_o of_o matrimonial_a sanctification_n for_o i_o hope_v now_o you_o will_v leave_v off_o your_o natural_a holiness_n why_o than_o this_o text_n of_o the_o thessalonian_o i_o mean_v and_o the_o uncleanness_n and_o holiness_n there_o must_v be_v restrain_v to_o fornication_n and_o chastity_n but_o this_o can_v be_v because_o other_o sans_o be_v name_v and_o mention_v in_o that_o place_n beside_o it_o as_o that_o no_o man_n go_v beyond_o &_o defraud_v his_o brother_n in_o any_o matter_n at_o the_o 6._o verse_n and_o then_o the_o apostle_n at_o the_o 7._o verse_n give_v this_o as_o a_o reason_n common_a to_o both_o and_o all_o particular_n because_o god_n have_v not_o call_v we_o to_o uncleanness_n but_o to_o holiness_n so_o that_o by_o holiness_n there_o be_v mean_v not_o only_a chastity_n but_o justice_n also_o and_o integrity_n and_o by_o uncleanness_n in_o justice_n also_o &_o fraudulency_n for_o the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v first_o

general_o set_v down_o at_o the_o 3._o verse_n and_o specify_v in_o two_o particular_n the_o one_o of_o chastity_n along_o to_o the_o 6._o verse_n in_o which_o verse_n be_v another_o particular_a of_o justice_n and_o at_o the_o 7_o verse_n the_o reason_n of_o both_o be_v yield_v for_o god_n have_v not_o call_v we_o to_o uncleanness_n but_o holiness_n which_o if_o understand_v only_o of_o matrimonial_a uncleanness_n which_o be_v fornication_n and_o holiness_n which_o be_v chastity_n than_o the_o argument_n must_v run_v thus_o let_v no_o man_n go_v beyond_o his_o brother_n in_o bargine_v for_o god_n have_v not_o call_v we_o to_o fornication_n but_o to_o chastity_n and_o so_o you_o alone_o shall_v run_v with_o it_o for_o i_o and_o follow_v the_o consequence_n thereof_o which_o i_o hold_v to_o be_v of_o no_o consquence_n and_o fourthly_a such_o another_o consequence_n be_v this_o uncleanness_n and_o holiness_n or_o sanctification_n be_v put_v by_o st._n paul_n to_o the_o thessalonian_o for_o fornication_n and_o chastity_n suppose_v it_o so_o though_o i_o grant_v it_o not_o so_o and_o therefore_o the_o same_o be_v mean_v by_o st._n paul_n to_o the_o corinthian_a when_o he_o say_v the_o husband_n be_v sanctify_v by_o or_o in_o or_o to_o the_o wife_n else_o the_o child_n be_v unclean_a but_o now_o they_o be_v holy_a as_o if_o the_o same_o word_n may_v not_o bear_v divers_a sense_n in_o scveral_a text_n of_o scripture_n according_a to_o the_o diversity_n of_o the_o matter_n and_o scope_n and_o how_o will_v you_o show_v that_o chastity_n among_o the_o heathen_n and_o unbeliever_n be_v ever_o call_v sanctification_n in_o scripture_n the_o spirit_n only_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o sanctification_n and_o the_o body_n of_o heathen_n and_o unbeliever_n be_v not_o the_o temple_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n and_o yet_o you_o see_v the_o heathen_a or_o unbelieving_a husband_n or_o wife_n be_v say_v to_o be_v sanctify_v in_o or_o by_o the_o believe_a wife_n or_o husband_n and_o five_o and_o last_o the_o apostle_n speak_v to_o the_o thessalonian_o grow_v person_n convert_v to_o christ_n and_o tell_v they_o for_o the_o present_a and_o time_n to_o come_v that_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n they_o shall_v abstain_v from_o uncleanness_n and_o fornication_n from_o fraud_n and_o injustice_n for_o the_o one_o of_o which_o you_o cite_v heb._n 13.4_o also_o the_o only_a t●xt_n you_o ci●e_v according_a the_o sense_n of_o it_o and_o what_o be_v all_o this_o to_o the_o unbeliever_n be_v sanctify_v by_o the_o believer_n or_o their_o child_n being_n holy_a here_o be_v no_o such_o mix_v conjugal_a society_n of_o christian_n and_o gentile_n or_o heathen_n and_o child_n bear_v of_o they_o as_o appear_v in_o that_o the_o apostle_n say_v let_v every_o one_o of_o you_o possess_v his_o vessel_n in_o sanctification_n and_o not_o in_o the_o lust_n of_o concupiscence_n even_o as_o the_o gentile_n which_o know_v not_o god_n i_o be_o sure_a the_o

for_o some_o of_o your_o sect_n hold_v that_o the_o sanctification_n of_o the_o unbeliever_n here_o in_o the_o corinthian_n be_v such_o a_o sanctification_n as_o be_v parallel_n with_o that_o there_o
