A29129 A cordial-mediator for accordance of brethren that are of different judgments and wayes of administration in things that concerne the Kingdome of God for repairing of the breach and restoring of the paths for many generations : wherein is proposed the way and means (not to inforce or compell to an outward dissembling, hypocriticall uniformity, which is all that can be inforced unto by humane authority, but) to induce and ingage to a cordiall-uniformity even of soule and spirit amongst all that are truly and really Christians, and to bring them likewise into the same wayes and ministrations in the things of God / written by Ellis Bradshaw. Bradshaw, Ellis. 1658 (1658) Wing B4141; ESTC R27175 36,305 46

block_n and_o offence_n that_o be_v on_o our_o part_n and_o the_o lord_n will_v bless_v we_o and_o hear_v our_o prayer_n and_o reward_v our_o work_n and_o labour_n of_o love_n that_o we_o have_v

do_v he_o make_v it_o his_o business_n when_o he_o be_v ready_a to_o leave_v they_o and_o to_o give_v it_o forth_o chief_o as_o his_o will_n and_o testament_n and_o shall_v not_o we_o think_v it_o worthy_a to_o be_v make_v as_o our_o business_n and_o that_o of_o great_a concernment_n in_o this_o our_o age_n and_o generation_n because_o the_o love_n of_o many_o wax_v cold_a already_o however_o in_o this_o treatise_n i_o study_v brevity_n expect_v that_o man_n better_o able_a will_v make_v it_o their_o business_n and_o yet_o if_o i_o seem_v to_o repeat_v and_o fall_v on_o again_o with_o the_o same_o scripture_n it_o be_v to_o press_v they_o further_o consider_v therefore_o thus_o say_v the_o lord_n a_o new_a commandment_n i_o give_v unto_o you_o that_o you_o love_v one_o another_o as_o i_o have_v love_v you_o that_o you_o also_o love_v one_o another_o john_n 13.34_o consider_v it_o i_o say_v it_o be_v the_o commandment_n of_o christ_n to_o all_o such_o as_o be_v and_o will_v be_v account_v and_o know_v by_o all_o man_n to_o be_v his_o disciple_n which_o be_v the_o promise_n annex_v vers_fw-la 35._o by_o this_o shall_v all_o man_n know_v that_o you_o be_v my_o disciple_n if_o you_o have_v love_v one_o to_o another_o now_o the_o measure_n of_o this_o love_n be_v express_v in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o the_o 34._o ver_fw-la to_o wit_n as_o i_o have_v love_v you_o that_o you_o also_o love_v one_o another_o and_o this_o measure_n of_o love_n be_v further_o explain_v as_o to_o the_o latitude_n and_o extent_n thereof_o in_o reference_n to_o the_o same_o command_n to_o wit_n john_n 15.12_o 13._o this_o be_v my_o commandment_n that_o you_o love_v one_o another_o as_o i_o have_v love_v you_o and_o how_o be_v that_o see_v vers_fw-la 15._o great_a love_n have_v no_o man_n then_o this_o that_o a_o man_n lie_v down_o his_o life_n for_o his_o friend_n and_o that_o this_o be_v the_o true_a and_o proper_a meaning_n of_o christ_n without_o any_o mystical_a dark_a sense_n see_v how_o the_o same_o apostle_n that_o love_a disciple_n who_o be_v therefore_o true_o call_v the_o belove_a disciple_n or_o the_o disciple_n who_o jesus_n love_v as_o though_o in_o comparison_n he_o have_v love_v none_o 〈◊〉_d he_o and_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o though_o he_o love●_n they_o all_o yet_o he_o love_v john_n with_o a_o more_o peculiar_a transcendent_a affection_n than_o any_o of_o t●e_v rest_n and_o chief_o because_o that_o his_o doctrine_n of_o lou●_n and_o his_o command_n thereof_o take_v more_o impression_n in_o he_o then_o the_o other_o disciple_n and_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o the_o love_n of_o the_o brethren_n take_v more_o place_n in_o his_o heart_n as_o so_o it_o be_v manifest_a in_o his_o epistle_n and_o gospel_n by_o his_o treat_v more_o and_o more_o full_o of_o love_n then_o all_o the_o other_o disciple_n 1_o con._n from_o whence_o i_o may_v gather_v by_o the_o way_n that_o they_o that_o love_v most_o be_v the_o most_o belove_a and_o the_o most_o bend_v to_o the_o press_v and_o inculcate_v and_o communication_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o love_n unto_o their_o brethren_n 2_o con._n and_o that_o they_o whosoever_o that_o can_v cordial_o embrace_v and_o receive_v this_o doctrine_n be_v not_o cordial_o embrace_v and_o receive_v of_o christ_n and_o that_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o measure_n of_o our_o cordiallity_n 3_o con._n look_v how_o much_o more_o cordial_o we_o embrace_v and_o receive_v his_o doctrine_n of_o love_n by_o so_o much_o the_o more_o cordial_o we_o shall_v be_v and_o be_v embrace_v yea_o love_a and_o receive_v of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o thus_o much_o by_o the_o way_n now_o for_o the_o proper_a extent_n of_o the_o manner_n and_o measure_n of_o this_o duty_n of_o love_n see_v 1_o john_n 3.16_o to_o wit_n hereby_o perceive_v we_o the_o love_n of_o god_n because_o he_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o we_o and_o we_o ought_v to_o lay_v down_o our_o life_n for_o the_o brethren_n it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o love_v in_o word_n and_o in_o t●ngue_n only_o but_o it_o must_v be_v in_o deed_n and_o in_o truth_n vers_n 18._o especial_o if_o we_o will_v know_v that_o we_o be_v of_o the_o truth_n and_o that_o the_o love_n of_o god_n dwell_v in_o we_o and_o will_v have_v our_o heart_n assure_v before_o he_o see_v for_o 17.19_o we_o must_v not_o shut_v up_o our_o bowel_n of_o compassion_n if_o we_o have_v this_o world_n good_a and_o see_v our_o brother_n have_v need_v for_o in_o such_o case_n there_o be_v no_o appearance_n or_o manifestation_n that_o the_o love_n of_o god_n abide_v in_o we_o no_o he_o that_o love_v not_o his_o brother_n abide_v in_o death_n and_o whosoever_o hate_v his_o brother_n be_v a_o murderer_n and_o we_o know_v that_o no_o murderer_n have_v eternal_a life_n abide_v in_o he_o see_v vers_fw-la 14.15_o read_v this_o chapter_n throughout_o and_o ch._n 4._o wherein_o it_o be_v so_o evident_a that_o the_o apostle_n press_v this_o duty_n of_o love_n as_o the_o great_a and_o chief_a duty_n and_o command_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o without_o which_o we_o can_v possible_o be_v assure_v that_o we_o be_v yet_o pass_v from_o death_n unto_o life_n nor_o that_o god_n love_v we_o and_o we_o he_o nor_o that_o we_o keep_v his_o commandment_n and_o do_v those_o thing_n that_o please_v he_o nor_o that_o we_o know_v god_n or_o dwell_v in_o he_o and_o he_o in_o we_o nor_o that_o we_o shall_v have_v boldness_n in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n neither_o can_v our_o fear_n that_o have_v torment_n in_o it_o be_v cast_v out_o nor_o can_v we_o prove_v ourselves_o to_o be_v true_a man_n but_o liar_n because_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o he_o who_o love_v not_o his_o brother_n who_o he_o have_v see_v shall_v love_v god_n who_o he_o have_v not_o see_v and_o this_o commandment_n have_v we_o from_o he_o that_o he_o who_o love_v god_n shall_v love_v his_o brother_n also_o see_v chap._n 4._o and_o this_o be_v the_o message_n that_o you_o have_v hear_v from_o the_o beginning_n that_o we_o shall_v love_v one_o another_o chap._n 3.11_o see_v also_o 1_o tim._n 1.5_o now_o the_o end_n of_o the_o commandment_n be_v love_n out_o of_o a_o pure_a heart_n and_o a_o good_a conscience_n and_o faith_n unfeigned_a and_o why_o be_v this_o call_v the_o end_n of_o the_o commandment_n but_o because_o that_o he_o that_o have_v love_v another_o have_v fulfil_v the_o law_n for_o no_o man_n can_v love_v his_o brother_n but_o he_o love_v god_n nor_o any_o man_n love_n god_n but_o he_o will_v also_o love_v his_o brother_n and_o upon_o this_o hang_v the_o whole_a law_n and_o the_o prophet_n to_o wit_n to_o love_n god_n above_o all_o and_o our_o neighbour_n as_o ourselves_o and_o again_o because_o if_o this_o love_n be_v in_o we_o in_o perfection_n as_o it_o ought_v the_o natural_a product_n of_o it_o will_v be_v suitable_a both_o in_o respect_n of_o our_o duty_n to_o god_n and_o to_o our_o neighbour_n for_o love_n work_v no_o evil_a against_o our_o neighbour_n much_o less_o against_o god_n see_v 1_o cor._n 13._o now_o this_o main_a duty_n of_o love_n and_o the_o measure_n and_o necessity_n of_o it_o be_v sufficient_o prove_v and_o that_o from_o such_o authority_n as_o no_o christian_a can_v for_o shame_n gainsay_v it_o or_o oppose_v it_o in_o the_o least_o i_o shall_v proceed_v to_o answer_v some_o query_n
