they_o come_v in_o sincerity_n of_o heart_n reject_v not_o those_o who_o god_n accept_v i_o may_v go_v on_o thus_o to_o handle_v other_o ceremony_n as_o the_o cross_n in_o baptism_n the_o ring_n in_o marriage_n etc._n etc._n but_o i_o conceive_v it_o needless_a the_o same_o reason_n be_v applicable_a to_o all_o and_o he_o that_o be_v once_o bring_v to_o be_v indifferent_a and_o unconcerned_a in_o one_o will_v soon_o be_v so_o dispose_v to_o all_o wherefore_o i_o conclude_v this_o point_n of_o ceremony_n with_o st._n paul_n he_o that_o regard_v a_o day_n regard_v it_o unto_o the_o lord_n and_o he_o that_o regard_v not_o the_o day_n to_o the_o lord_n he_o do_v not_o regard_v it_o he_o that_o eat_v eat_v to_o the_o lord_n for_o he_o give_v god_n thanks_o and_o he_o that_o eat_v not_o to_o the_o lord_n he_o eat_v not_o and_o giveth_z god_n thanks_o so_o he_o that_o kneel_v kneel_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o he_o that_o kneel_v not_o to_o the_o lord_n he_o kneel_v not_o and_o i_o desire_v you_o far_a to_o observe_v this_o circumstance_n in_o st._n paul_n word_n how_o he_o call_v the_o zealous_a observer_n of_o ceremonial_a matter_n the_o weak_a brother_n and_o command_v the_o strong_a not_o to_o despise_v he_o it_o be_v real_o a_o despicable_a weakness_n and_o a_o childish_a or_o effeminate_a kind_n of_o devotion_n to_o be_v zealous_a in_o any_o ceremonial_a observance_n which_o masculine_a spirit_n be_v apt_a to_o despise_v but_o in_o christian_a charity_n ought_v rather_o to_o pity_v and_o bear_v the_o infirmity_n of_o other_o wherefore_o let_v we_o be_v man_n of_o understanding_n man_n in_o devotion_n be_v zealous_a and_o hold_v fast_o the_o substantial_a part_n of_o religion_n piety_n justice_n temperance_n chastity_n truth_n sincerity_n stand_v fast_o for_o these_o not_o recede_v one_o hair_n breadth_n from_o these_o keep_v but_o our_o ground_n and_o fight_v it_o out_o like_a man_n to_o death_n against_o all_o power_n and_o principality_n on_o earth_n or_o under_o the_o earth_n and_o let_v we_o leave_v it_o to_o woman_n and_o child_n to_o contend_v about_o ceremony_n let_v it_o be_v indifferent_a to_o we_o whether_o this_o or_o that_o or_o no_o ceremony_n whether_o kneel_v or_o not_o kneel_v bow_n or_o not_o bow_v surplice_n or_o not_o surplice_n cross_n or_o no_o cross_n ring_n or_o not_o ring_n let_v we_o give_v glory_n to_o god_n in_o all_o and_o no_o offence_n to_o our_o brethren_n in_o any_o thing_n now_o if_o any_o man_n will_v be_v so_o curious_a as_o to_o ask_v why_o st._n paul_n do_v not_o determine_v this_o point_n whether_o they_o shall_v eat_v herb_n only_o or_o other_o meat_n also_o whether_o regard_v a_o day_n or_o not_o and_o so_o establish_v uniformity_n among_o they_o i_o can_v imagine_v any_o other_o reason_n but_o mere_o to_o teach_v we_o this_o charitable_a compliance_n with_o one_o another_o as_o necessary_a a_o practice_n as_o any_o other_o man_n be_v a_o very_a ticklish_a animal_n to_o govern_v he_o will_v not_o always_o be_v guide_v by_o reason_n and_o authority_n man_n have_v a_o will_n as_o well_o as_o reason_n and_o will_v have_v his_o own_o will_n in_o many_o thing_n even_o the_o godly_a very_o few_o be_v find_v so_o entire_o pious_a as_o whole_o to_o deny_v themselves_o it_o be_v so_o high_a and_o sharp_a a_o point_n of_o religion_n as_o you_o may_v break_v the_o heart_n string_n of_o many_o in_o wind_v they_o up_o so_o high_a and_o thus_o crack_v all_o their_o religion_n perchance_o you_o will_v find_v it_o so_o yourselves_o have_v the_o nonconformist_n the_o screw_v you_o up_o as_o you_o they_o wherefore_o consider_v yourselves_o lest_o you_o also_o be_v tempt_v be_v charitable_a to_o the_o weak_a proceed_v not_o so_o severe_o against_o they_o in_o your_o court_n of_o judicature_n but_o remember_v what_o st._n paul_n say_v colos._n 2._o let_v no_o manjudge_v you_o in_o meat_n or_o in_o drink_n or_o in_o respect_n of_o a_o holy_a day_n or_o of_o the_o new_a moon_n or_o of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n which_o be_v a_o shadow_n of_o thing_n to_o come_v but_o the_o body_n be_v of_o christ_n will_v you_o then_o in_o respect_n of_o a_o holiday_n cross_n in_o baptism_n

will_v of_o themselves_o take_v the_o way_n you_o desire_v uniformity_n in_o ceremony_n be_v a_o good_a and_o desirable_a thing_n therefore_o endeavour_v it_o but_o unity_n in_o faith_n and_o
