A62978 Mixt marriages vindicated: or A discourse of mixt marriages by way of dialogue between A. and B. Who are of the same profession in matters of religion: but of different apprehensions in the point of marriage. First, shewing, that for persons to be joyned together in marriage, who differ about institutions in matters of religion, is contrary to no law; and therefore lawful. Secondly, that in case such marriages were the breach of a law, yet there is no rule left for the church to excommunicate persons for so marrying. By Stephen Tory.

those_o in_o the_o new_a testament_n have_v the_o same_o difference_n only_o with_o this_o addition_n the_o jew_n and_o christian_n differ_v about_o our_o bless_a lord_n and_o saviour_n which_o be_v
