A42553	Philadelphia, or, a treatise of brotherly-love Shewing, that we must love all men: love the wicked in general: love our enemies: that the godly must especially love another: and the reasons of each particular love. The manner of our mutual love; the dignity, necessity, excellenc, and usefulness of brotherly-love. That the want of love, where love is due, is hatred, shewed in divers particulars. The greatness of the sin of malice and hatred; with the reasons why wicked men hate the saints: together with cautions against those sins that break the bond of love. Many weighty questions discussed, and divers cases cleared. By William Gearing, minister of the word.	Gearing, William.	1670 (1670)	Wing G436C; ESTC R223669	92,727	215

will_v you_o but_o walk_v a_o few_o turn_n with_o christ_n in_o the_o garden_n where_o he_o feel_v the_o agony_n in_o his_o soul_n will_v you_o go_v up_o to_o calvary_n and_o see_v what_o our_o

love_v we_o now_o if_o christ_n of_o his_o mere_a love_n have_v lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o we_o than_o we_o ought_v also_o to_o lay_v down_o our_o life_n for_o the_o brethren_n 1_o joh._n 3.16_o this_o will_v have_v seem_v a_o hard_a say_n to_o we_o if_o it_o have_v be_v naked_o propose_v in_o such_o term_n as_o these_o we_o ought_v to_o lay_v down_o our_o life_n for_o the_o brethren_n but_o the_o apostle_n have_v before_o lay_v down_o such_o a_o strong_a argument_n aforehand_o do_v in_o a_o most_o convince_a manner_n infer_v this_o upon_o it_o as_o a_o undeniable_a conclusion_n which_o can_v with_o any_o show_n of_o reason_n be_v gainsay_v or_o contradict_v christ_n the_o eternal_a son_n of_o god_n have_v manifest_v his_o singular_a love_n in_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o we_o we_o must_v therefore_o follow_v the_o captain_n of_o our_o salvation_n in_o this_o incomparable_a act_n of_o love_n we_o be_v dear_a to_o he_o than_o his_o blood_n than_o his_o life_n so_o the_o saint_n good_a must_v be_v dear_a to_o we_o than_o our_o heart_n blood_n than_o our_o precious_a life_n here_o i_o will_v lay_v down_o this_o proposition_n that_o christian_n be_v call_v unto_o it_o aught_o to_o show_v so_o much_o love_n to_o their_o brethren_n as_o to_o lay_v down_o their_o life_n for_o they_o in_o this_o proposition_n two_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v consider_v 1._o the_o thing_n require_v 2._o the_o condition_n suppose_v the_o thing_n require_v be_v this_o that_o christian_n shall_v lay_v down_o their_o life_n for_o the_o brethren_n the_o condition_n suppose_v be_v this_o if_o they_o be_v call_v unto_o it_o for_o the_o former_a we_o must_v know_v that_o although_o christian_n must_v not_o think_v their_o life_n too_o dear_a for_o the_o brethren_n yet_o it_o be_v in_o this_o as_o it_o be_v in_o other_o duty_n of_o love_n and_o mercy_n towards_o man_n the_o first_o and_o great_a commandment_n must_v give_v life_n unto_o the_o second_o which_o be_v like_a unto_o it_o the_o first_o table_n must_v have_v the_o chief_a respect_n in_o our_o obedience_n to_o the_o second_o that_o be_v the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o our_o regard_n of_o his_o glory_n command_v in_o the_o first_o table_n which_o be_v call_v the_o first_o and_o great_a commandment_n must_v have_v the_o chief_a sway_n in_o our_o heart_n to_o incline_v we_o to_o the_o duty_n of_o love_n towards_o man_n enjoin_v in_o the_o second_o table_n for_o we_o must_v love_v our_o neighbour_n in_o the_o lord_n and_o for_o the_o lord_n and_o so_o the_o love_n of_o god_n must_v have_v a_o constrain_a and_o overrule_a power_n over_o we_o the_o love_n of_o god_n must_v first_o move_v we_o to_o lay_v down_o our_o life_n for_o the_o brethren_n and_o then_o the_o love_n of_o our_o brethren_n be_v as_o it_o be_v comprehend_v in_o our_o love_n of_o god_n must_v move_v we_o thereunto_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n must_v be_v the_o principal_a end_n that_o we_o must_v aim_v at_o in_o do_v good_a to_o other_o so_o especial_o in_o this_o great_a fruit_n of_o love_n when_o we_o lie_v down_o our_o life_n for_o they_o than_o the_o good_a of_o our_o brethren_n must_v be_v respect_v in_o the_o second_o place_n in_o as_o much_o as_o god_n be_v glorify_v in_o that_o good_a which_o they_o receive_v by_o that_o mean_n so_o then_o when_o any_o do_v in_o christian_a love_n lie_v down_o their_o life_n for_o their_o brethren_n they_o do_v not_o die_v for_o they_o only_o but_o for_o the_o lord_n chief_o and_o principal_o this_o the_o apostle_n strong_o prove_v to_o be_v require_v of_o christian_n because_o

he_o do_v not_o thrust_v himself_o into_o the_o hand_n of_o his_o enemy_n but_o leave_v they_o to_o contrive_v his_o death_n among_o themselves_o and_o so_o to_o take_v the_o guilt_n of_o his_o

and_o carry_v he_o in_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o prisoner_n sect_n vi_o quest_n now_o than_o the_o question_n be_v what_o that_o call_n be_v which_o be_v suppose_v as_o a_o condition_n in_o this_o case_n without_o which_o a_o christian_a be_v not_o bind_v to_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o the_o brethren_n resp_n i_o answer_v a_o christian_a may_v be_v call_v to_o this_o in_o such_o case_n as_o do_v more_o immediate_o concern_v god_n and_o in_o such_o as_o do_v more_o immediate_o concern_v the_o brethren_n as_o for_o those_o case_n as_o do_v more_o immediate_o concern_v god_n in_o which_o we_o may_v be_v call_v to_o die_v for_o our_o brethren_n they_o may_v be_v divers_a as_o 1._o when_o we_o be_v persecute_v for_o the_o name_n and_o gospel_n of_o christ_n and_o be_v call_v to_o confess_v the_o truth_n with_o apparent_a danger_n of_o death_n in_o such_o a_o case_n we_o be_v to_o lay_v down_o our_o life_n for_o christ_n and_o in_o such_o a_o case_n in_o a_o inferior_a respect_n we_o be_v also_o to_o lay_v down_o our_o life_n for_o the_o brethren_n inasmuch_o as_o we_o shall_v rather_o choose_v to_o die_v than_o to_o give_v any_o just_a occasion_n of_o offence_n or_o stumble_v unto_o they_o by_o deny_v the_o truth_n and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n we_o shall_v be_v content_a to_o die_v for_o their_o encouragement_n in_o the_o profession_n of_o the_o truth_n now_o though_o this_o be_v a_o case_n that_o do_v more_o direct_o and_o immediate_o concern_v god_n than_o our_o brethren_n yet_o it_o do_v concern_v our_o brethren_n also_o in_o a_o inferior_a respect_n so_o in_o this_o regard_n i_o think_v there_o be_v few_o of_o those_o many_o thousand_o martyr_n which_o have_v suffer_v for_o christ_n but_o also_o they_o have_v suffer_v for_o their_o brethren_n and_o in_o such_o suffering_n they_o be_v to_o have_v regard_n to_o their_o brethren_n though_o principal_o to_o the_o lord_n now_o we_o be_v call_v thus_o to_o suffer_v when_o we_o be_v bring_v before_o those_o in_o authority_n and_o put_v to_o it_o either_o to_o deny_v the_o truth_n or_o to_o suffer_v death_n 2._o when_o the_o preacher_n of_o the_o gospel_n can_v without_o danger_n of_o death_n declare_v the_o whole_a counsel_n of_o god_n in_o thing_n needful_a to_o salvation_n they_o must_v be_v content_a to_o hazard_v their_o life_n rather_o than_o not_o to_o be_v faithful_a in_o that_o commission_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v put_v they_o in_o this_o do_v immediate_o concern_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o the_o discharge_n of_o their_o conscience_n towards_o he_o but_o it_o do_v also_o concern_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o a_o inferior_a degree_n and_o they_o must_v refuse_v both_o to_o deliver_v any_o unsound_a doctrine_n to_o they_o to_o the_o endanger_n of_o

principal_a aim_n must_v be_v at_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n as_o for_o example_n 1._o if_o we_o be_v put_v to_o it_o to_o confess_v some_o thing_n by_o other_o of_o the_o godly_a which_o may_v bring_v they_o into_o danger_n through_o the_o malice_n of_o wicked_a man_n in_o this_o case_n we_o shall_v rather_o die_v than_o hurt_v they_o by_o such_o confession_n lest_o we_o be_v accessary_a to_o the_o
