neither_o be_v the_o gentile_a christian_n utter_o without_o fault_n in_o it_o but_o so_o far_o stand_v fast_o in_o that_o liberty_n wherewith_o christ_n have_v make_v they_o free_a 1_o as_o not_o only_o to_o despise_v the_o weakness_n and_o ignorance_n of_o the_o other_o etc._n but_o to_o be_v ready_a almost_o even_o to_o cut_v they_o off_o from_o their_o communion_n i_o need_v not_o say_v how_o dangerous_a such_o a_o controversy_n as_o this_o may_v have_v prove_v nor_o what_o a_o stop_v it_o may_v have_v put_v to_o the_o progress_n of_o christianity_n in_o those_o first_o beginning_n of_o the_o gospel_n great_a be_v the_o difficulty_n which_o the_o apostle_n undergo_v on_o this_o occasion_n whilst_o they_o endeavour_v so_o to_o menage_n themselves_o between_o these_o two_o party_n as_o not_o only_o not_o to_o offend_v either_o but_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o bring_v they_o both_o to_o such_o a_o temper_n with_o one_o another_o that_o neither_o the_o gentile_a convert_n may_v despise_v the_o weakness_n of_o his_o judaize_v brother_n nor_o the_o jewish_a votary_n judge_v too_o severe_o of_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o gentile_a christian._n and_o this_o be_v the_o design_n of_o st._n paul_n in_o the_o chapter_n before_o my_o text._n where_o address_v himself_o as_o indeed_o he_o seem_v to_o have_v do_v this_o whole_a epistle_n to_o the_o gentile_a christian_n and_o who_o as_o have_v the_o true_a notion_n of_o their_o christian_a liberty_n as_o to_o this_o matter_n he_o therefore_o call_v the_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d the_o strong_a in_o the_o faith_n 1_o v._n 1_o he_o exhort_v they_o in_o a_o most_o admirable_a discourse_n on_o this_o subject_a throughout_o the_o whole_a chapter_n ibid._n to_o bear_v the_o infirmity_n of_o the_o weak_a i._n e._n not_o to_o grieve_v nor_o despise_v they_o for_o their_o mistake_a zeal_n but_o by_o comply_v a_o little_a and_o condescend_v to_o their_o infirmity_n to_o endeavour_v if_o it_o shall_v please_v god_n to_o draw_v they_o out_o of_o their_o error_n let_v every_o one_o of_o we_o please_v his_o neighbour_n for_o his_o good_a to_o edification_n ●_o and_o then_o conclude_v all_o in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o text_n wherein_o we_o have_v first_o a_o hearty_a prayer_n to_o god_n almighty_a that_o he_o will_v inspire_v they_o so_o effectual_o with_o a_o spirit_n of_o unity_n and_o charity_n that_o notwithstanding_o all_o their_o difference_n they_o may_v join_v unanimous_o both_o jew_n and_o gentile_n not_o only_o in_o the_o same_o common_a worship_n of_o god_n but_o with_o the_o same_o hearty_a affection_n to_o one_o another_o now_o the_o god_n of_o patience_n and_o consolation_n grant_v you_o to_o be_v likeminded_a one_o towards_o another_o according_a to_o christ_n jesus_n that_o you_o may_v with_o one_o mind_n and_o one_o mouth_n glorify_v god_n even_o the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n and_o second_o a_o exhortation_n as_o the_o final_a result_n of_o his_o whole_a discourse_n that_o they_o shall_v with_o all_o charitable_a condescension_n and_o kindness_n receive_v and_o love_n and_o assist_v one_o another_o and_o not_o despise_v and_o censure_n and_o deprive_v one_o another_o either_o of_o their_o charity_n or_o their_o communion_n wherefore_o receive_v you_o one_o another_o as_o christ_n also_o receive_v we_o to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o which_o word_n as_o they_o thus_o lie_v before_o we_o in_o the_o occasion_n and_o design_n of_o they_o there_o be_v two_o thing_n that_o will_v offer_v themselves_o to_o our_o consideration_n first_o a_o exhortation_n to_o these_o dissent_v christian_n and_o in_o they_o to_o all_o of_o we_o not_o to_o break_v either_o charity_n or_o communion_n with_o one_o another_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o such_o thing_n wherein_o we_o may_v secure_o differ_v but_o mutual_o to_o bear_v with_o one_o another_o in_o our_o difference_n second_o loc_n a_o enforcement_n of_o this_o exhortation_n from_o two_o of_o the_o great_a consideration_n that_o can_v possible_o engage_v any_o christian_n to_o a_o observance_n of_o it_o viz._n first_o from_o the_o example_n of_o christ_n towards_o we_o second_o from_o the_o great_a glory_n that_o will_v hereby_o redound_v to_o god_n wherefore_o receive_v you_o one_o another_o as_o christ_n also_o receive_v we_o to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n i_o shall_v make_v it_o my_o endeavour_n with_o all_o the_o plainness_n that_o i_o can_v to_o pursue_v both_o the_o exhortation_n and_o the_o enforcement_n in_o the_o three_o follow_a proposition_n i._o that_o there_o may_v be_v difference_n in_o matter_n of_o lesser_a moment_n between_o very_o good_a and_o zealous_a christian_n without_o any_o just_a reflection_n either_o upon_o the_o man_n or_o upon_o their_o religion_n ii_o that_o these_o difference_n ought_v not_o to_o hinder_v such_o person_n from_o agree_v together_o not_o only_o in_o a_o common_a charity_n but_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a in_o a_o common_a worship_n of_o god_n too_o iii_o that_o to_o this_o end_v it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o christian_n but_o especial_o of_o those_o who_o be_v the_o strong_a in_o faith_n not_o only_o to_o pray_v for_o such_o a_o union_n but_o as_o they_o have_v opportunity_n hearty_o to_o labour_v themselves_o and_o earnest_o to_o stir_v up_o all_o other_o to_o endeavour_v after_o it_o 1._o and_o first_o that_o there_o may_v be_v difference_n in_o matter_n of_o lesser_a moment_n between_o very_o good_a and_o zealous_a christian_n without_o any_o just_a reflection_n upon_o the_o man_n or_o upon_o their_o religion_n for_o proof_n of_o which_o i_o think_v i_o need_v go_v no_o far_o than_o the_o very_a history_n of_o my_o text._n i_o have_v already_o say_v how_o great_a a_o division_n there_o be_v between_o the_o jewish_a and_o the_o gentile_a convert_v about_o the_o ritual_a observance_n of_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n and_o with_o what_o a_o zeal_n the_o dissent_v party_n manage_v the_o dispute_n till_o they_o have_v almost_o lose_v their_o charity_n and_o make_v a_o deplorable_a schism_n in_o the_o church_n of_o christ._n and_o yet_o i_o be_o confident_a no_o man_n will_v say_v that_o this_o be_v at_o all_o derogatory_n either_o to_o the_o truth_n of_o their_o common_a christianity_n or_o to_o the_o infallible_a authority_n with_o which_o the_o apostle_n have_v deliver_v it_o unto_o they_o and_o for_o the_o party_n themselves_o that_o thus_o differ_v with_o one_o another_o that_o they_o have_v a_o true_a zeal_n on_o both_o side_n for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o think_v it_o matter_n of_o conscience_n the_o one_o to_o observe_v these_o ceremonial_a institution_n as_o what_o god_n still_o require_v of_o they_o the_o other_o to_o refuse_v any_o such_o imposition_n as_o not_o only_o a_o needless_a burden_n 2_o but_o even_o repugnant_a to_o the_o grace_n of_o christ_n declare_v to_o they_o in_o his_o gospel_n s._n paul_n in_o the_o prosecution_n of_o this_o very_a argument_n do_v clear_o bear_v witness_n to_o they_o ch._n fourteen_o 6_o where_o he_o make_v use_v of_o this_o very_a thing_n as_o one_o reason_n why_o they_o shall_v mutual_o tolerate_v one_o another_o in_o their_o dissension_n viz._n that_o however_o they_o differ_v in_o their_o notion_n as_o to_o these_o particular_n yet_o they_o be_v both_o perfect_o agree_v in_o the_o same_o common_a zeal_n for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o the_o discharge_v of_o their_o duty_n he_o that_o regard_v the_o day_n 6_o 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 give_v god_n thank_v and_o indeed_o either_o we_o must_v say_v that_o all_o even_o the_o least_o point_n relate_v to_o our_o religion_n be_v so_o clear_o and_o plain_o reveal_v that_o no_o honest_a man_n can_v possible_o be_v mistake_v if_o he_o will_v but_o impartial_o inquire_v into_o they_o which_o from_o the_o difference_n of_o whole_a party_n concern_v these_o thing_n it_o be_v plain_a they_o be_v not_o or_o else_o man_n different_a capacity_n and_o opportunity_n and_o temper_n and_o education_n consider_v it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o expect_v that_o all_o good_a man_n shall_v agree_v in_o all_o their_o notion_n of_o religion_n any_o more_o than_o we_o see_v they_o do_v in_o any_o other_o concern_v whatsoever_o and_o who_o be_o i_o that_o i_o shall_v dare_v to_o pronounce_v a_o sentence_n of_o reprobation_n against_o any_o one_o in_o who_o there_o appear_v all_o the_o other_o character_n of_o a_o humble_a upright_o sincere_a christian_a only_o because_o he_o have_v not_o perhaps_o meet_v with_o the_o same_o instruction_n or_o read_v the_o same_o book_n or_o do_v not_o argue_v the_o same_o way_n in_o a_o word_n because_o he_o be_v not_o

soul_n of_o the_o most_o excellent_a assistance_n god_n have_v give_v we_o in_o this_o world_n in_o order_n to_o our_o salvation_n in_o the_o next_o whereas_o he_o who_o come_v frequent_o and_o with_o

these_o i._n what_o that_o honour_n be_v which_o the_o bless_a virgin_n be_v now_o capable_a of_o receive_v and_o which_o according_o we_o ourselves_o pay_v to_o her_o memory_n for_o answer_v to_o which_o enquiry_n i_o shall_v lay_v down_o this_o plain_a and_o i_o suppose_v undeniable_a foundation_n viz._n that_o however_o some_o have_v be_v please_v to_o exalt_v the_o glory_n and_o prerogative_n of_o the_o holy_a mary_n to_o a_o very_a great_a indeed_o to_o a_o extravagant_a degree_n so_o as_o hardly_o to_o leave_v any_o comparison_n between_o she_o and_o any_o other_o creature_n whether_o in_o heaven_n or_o earth_n yet_o since_o they_o still_o confess_v she_o to_o be_v but_o a_o mere_a creature_n the_o measure_n we_o must_v take_v whereby_o to_o judge_v what_o honour_n may_v warrantable_o be_v pay_v to_o she_o must_v be_v to_o consider_v what_o honour_n any_o mere_a creature_n in_o her_o circumstance_n be_v capable_a of_o receive_v and_o then_o i_o presume_v it_o can_v be_v just_o say_v that_o we_o be_v not_o of_o the_o number_n of_o those_o who_o call_v the_o holy_a virgin_n bless_v who_o upon_o this_o foundation_n do_v free_o profess_v that_o
