discern_v the_o lord_n body_n that_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o faithful_a after_o death_n do_v immediate_o live_v with_o christ_n in_o blessedness_n and_o that_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o wicked_a do_v immediate_o go_v into_o hell_n torment_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n both_o of_o the_o just_a and_o unjust_a at_o the_o last_o day_n at_o which_o time_n all_o shall_v appear_v before_o the_o judgement-seat_n of_o christ_n to_o receive_v according_a to_o what_o they_o have_v do_v in_o the_o body_n whether_o it_o be_v good_a or_o evil_a and_o that_o the_o righteous_a shall_v go_v into_o life_n eternal_a and_o the_o wicked_a into_o everlasting_a punishment_n 3._o we_o must_v not_o expect_v from_o the_o ordinary_a sort_n of_o people_n who_o through_o want_n of_o breed_n and_o other_o natural_a defect_n be_v usual_o unable_a well_o to_o express_v their_o mind_n a_o distinct_a or_o continue_a discourse_n of_o these_o thing_n and_o therefore_o we_o shall_v be_v satisfy_v if_o we_o can_v but_o perceive_v that_o they_o understand_v the_o substance_n 4._o we_o must_v take_v care_v not_o to_o make_v a_o question_n more_o difficult_a by_o our_o dark_a and_o cloudy_a expression_n but_o must_v endeavour_v to_o propound_v thing_n in_o the_o plain_a term_n we_o can_v 5._o though_o we_o may_v propound_v high_a and_o more_o difficult_a question_n for_o discovery_n of_o and_o provocation_n to_o growth_n in_o knowledge_n yet_o we_o will_v always_o as_o near_o as_o we_o can_v make_v their_o knowledge_n or_o ignorance_n in_o the_o point_n mention_v the_o rule_n of_o our_o discern_a and_o determination_n 6._o and_o in_o case_n any_o give_v not_o that_o satisfaction_n we_o desire_v we_o will_v endeavour_v to_o discover_v whether_o it_o be_v first_o from_o their_o unacquaintedness_n with_o the_o term_n and_o word_n of_o the_o question_n or_o second_o from_o bashfulness_n or_o shamefacedness_n or_o three_o from_o natural_a impediment_n or_o fourthly_a from_o ignorance_n of_o the_o thing_n itself_o and_o according_o we_o will_v propound_v the_o question_n in_o other_o word_n or_o fetch_v a_o compass_n to_o see_v if_o they_o can_v take_v a_o hint_n from_o something_o introductory_a however_o in_o case_n no_o satisfactory_a account_n can_v be_v give_v we_o will_v not_o set_v the_o party_n aside_o as_o if_o we_o take_v no_o further_a care_n but_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o instruct_v they_o with_o all_o meekness_n and_o patience_n 7._o because_o we_o find_v by_o experience_n that_o many_o people_n speak_v of_o the_o fundamental_n of_o religion_n in_o a_o mere_a form_n of_o word_n by_o rote_n without_o understand_v the_o sense_n and_o meaning_n thereof_o in_o propound_v our_o question_n we_o will_v of_o purpose_n forbear_v the_o word_n and_o method_n of_o ordinary_a catechism_n in_o point_n of_o scandal_n 1._o forasmuch_o as_o scandalous_a sinner_n can_v be_v admit_v to_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n without_o great_a dishonour_n to_o god_n defile_v and_o abuse_v of_o that_o holy_a ordinance_n sin_n and_o judgement_n to_o themselves_o the_o endanger_n of_o the_o leaven_n the_o whole_a lump_n and_o uncharitable_a unfaithfulness_n in_o those_o that_o know_o admit_v they_o therefore_o we_o resolve_v not_o to_o receive_v any_o of_o what_o degree_n quality_n or_o relation_n soever_o to_o this_o ordinance_n that_o can_v be_v prove_v to_o be_v scandalous_o sinful_a 2._o in_o regard_n we_o can_v only_o take_v cognizance_n of_o people_n outward_a and_o ecclesiastical_a right_n to_o ordinance_n therefore_o we_o resolve_v in_o matter_n of_o scandal_n not_o to_o proceed_v against_o any_o according_a to_o our_o private_a satisfaction_n suspicion_n dissatisfaction_n or_o rumour_n but_o according_a to_o outward_a visible_a and_o full_a proof_n of_o the_o matter_n of_o fact_n 3._o because_o all_o sin_n be_v not_o alike_o heinous_a and_o scandalous_a some_o be_v such_o in_o one_o single_a act_n other_o only_o in_o respect_n of_o continuance_n and_o other_o aggravate_v circumstance_n thereforefore_o we_o resolve_v to_o distinguish_v betwixt_o sin_n and_o sin_n wherein_o that_o we_o may_v proceed_v both_o more_o unanimous_o and_o safe_o we_o shall_v take_v the_o assembly_n direction_n for_o our_o rule_n look_v upon_o those_o sin_n mention_v by_o they_o in_o

in_o all_o other_o thing_n wherein_o the_o sinfulness_n be_v dubious_a and_o disputable_a 5_o we_o resolve_v in_o less_o sin_n to_o have_v regard_n to_o the_o constant_a tenure_n of_o the_o party_n

which_o may_v either_o aggravate_v or_o lessen_v the_o offence_n 6._o in_o case_n the_o party_n offend_v upon_o reproof_n shall_v manifest_v repentance_n by_o a_o serious_a profession_n of_o sorrow_n not_o slight_n and_o mere_o verbal_a he_o ought_v to_o be_v receive_v again_o 7._o and_o if_o the_o party_n profess_v repentance_n shall_v ready_o return_v to_o the_o same_o sin_n once_o and_o again_o or_o to_o any_o other_o scandalous_a sin_n though_o he_o again_o profess_v repentance_n yet_o we_o will_v defer_v his_o readmission_n till_o we_o have_v trial_n of_o his_o reformation_n for_o some_o

do_v not_o only_o call_v for_o ministerial_a help_n and_o advice_n in_o a_o more_o especial_a manner_n but_o also_o give_v opportunity_n and_o advantage_n for_o counsel_n or_o reproof_n therefore_o we_o resolve_v to_o be_v as_o diligent_a in_o visit_v the_o sick_a and_o afflict_a as_o other_o labour_n greatness_n of_o our_o charge_n and_o ability_n to_o go_v abroad_o will_v suffer_v we_o and_o that_o not_o only_o the_o rich_a and_o those_o that_o desire_v we_o but_o also_o the_o poor_a and_o those_o that_o send_v not_o for_o we_o 8._o see_v we_o be_v in_o scripture_n command_v to_o love_v

therefore_o we_o resolve_v in_o our_o society_n as_o well_o as_o in_o dispense_v of_o ordinance_n to_o put_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o precious_a and_o the_o vile_a and_o though_o we_o intend_v not_o to_o deny_v that_o charity_n help_v civility_n and_o duty_n that_o we_o owe_v unto_o the_o scandalous_a yet_o will_v we_o bestow_v our_o love_n of_o complacency_n only_o on_o those_o that_o

resolve_v beside_o the_o reprove_n of_o these_o sin_n in_o public_a and_o private_a to_o endeavour_v to_o bring_v such_o offender_n to_o the_o punishment_n of_o the_o law_n in_o thosed_a case_n

it_o according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o scripture_n 11_o because_o it_o have_v be_v the_o commendable_a practice_n of_o the_o saint_n of_o old_a in_o order_n to_o the_o reformation_n of_o the_o church_n public_o and_o solemn_o to_o renew_v the_o covenant_n with_o god_n and_o because_o in_o this_o age_n temptation_n to_o apostasy_n and_o backslide_n from_o the_o faith_n be_v strong_a and_o frequent_a and_o because_o our_o heart_n be_v so_o ready_a to_o start_v aside_o from_o the_o power_n of_o discipline_n that_o we_o daily_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o all_o possible_a obligation_n to_o

a_o profession_n of_o their_o consent_n to_o submit_v unto_o and_o accept_v of_o the_o term_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n to_o take_v the_o lord_n for_o their_o god_n to_o walk_v in_o his_o

to_o bind_v all_o to_o the_o same_o circumstance_n of_o profess_v their_o consent_n but_o if_o any_o profess_v and_o own_v the_o substance_n shall_v scruple_n at_o any_o particular_a circumstance_n we_o resolve_v to_o use_v towards_o such_o all_o possible_a meekness_n and_o condescension_n 12._o beside_o a_o profess_a competent_a knowledge_n of_o the_o fundamental_n of_o religion_n we_o resolve_v to_o require_v a_o unblameable_a conversation_n in_o all_o those_o who_o we_o shall_v admit_v to_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n both_o these_o be_v necessary_a for_o the_o

god_n may_v on_o the_o one_o hand_n be_v profane_v by_o the_o sinful_a neglect_n and_o carelessness_n of_o the_o church-guide_n and_o because_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n people_n may_v be_v wrong_v by_o a_o rash_a and_o groundless_a exclusion_n therefore_o in_o the_o judge_v and_o determine_v of_o people_n present_a fitness_n for_o that_o sacrament_n we_o resolve_v to_o set_v before_o we_o these_o follow_a rule_n both_o in_o point_n of_o knowledge_n and_o scandal_n in_o point_n of_o knowledge_n 1._o because_o the_o truth_n of_o grace_n be_v utter_o inconsistent_a with_o a_o total_a
