2._o this_o i_o conceive_v to_o be_v a_o manifest_a mistake_n for_o it_o will_v evident_o and_o undeniable_o follow_v god_n permit_v usury_n and_o polygamy_n and_o marry_v a_o sister_n to_o the_o

the_o whole_a gospel_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o i_o may_v not_o be_v mistake_v in_o this_o assertion_n i_o say_v 1._o that_o sufficient_a promulgation_n be_v absolute_o necessary_a to_o the_o obligation_n of_o any_o positive_a law_n of_o god_n or_o man_n humane_a or_o divine_a it_o be_v moral_o impossible_a that_o any_o man_n shall_v be_v bind_v to_o obey_v the_o law_n of_o any_o authority_n till_o it_o be_v sufficient_o evidence_v to_o he_o that_o indeed_o they_o be_v the_o law_n of_o such_o authority_n 2._o if_o then_o there_o be_v any_o jew_n in_o any_o part_n of_o the_o

to_o discover_v that_o truth_n to_o other_o of_o which_o they_o be_v abundant_o convince_v themselves_o and_o upon_o this_o ground_n i_o think_v that_o there_o lie_v a_o sacred_a and_o heavy_a obligation_n upon_o christian_n as_o be_v bind_v to_o seek_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n the_o propagation_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o conversion_n and_o salvation_n of_o their_o brethren_n to_o endeavour_v the_o conversion_n of_o the_o jew_n which_o certain_o can_v be_v by_o banish_v they_o from_o all_o christian_a commonwealth_n and_o therefore_o they_o must_v either_o go_v to_o the_o jew_n or_o bring_v the_o jew_n to_o they_o that_o so_o they_o may_v win_v they_o to_o christ_n by_o the_o innocence_n of_o their_o life_n and_o the_o truth_n and_o evidence_n of_o their_o doctrine_n now_o these_o two_o be_v both_o one_o as_o to_o our_o present_a case_n and_o purpose_n for_o certain_o if_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o we_o to_o go_v and_o live_v among_o the_o jew_n to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n than_o it_o will_v be_v as_o lawful_a to_o bring_v they_o hither_o and_o let_v they_o live_v among_o we_o to_o the_o same_o purpose_n and_o so_o the_o bring_n in_o of_o the_o jew_n will_v not_o be_v so_o irrational_a a_o thing_n as_o some_o fancy_n for_o it_o be_v no_o more_o very_o strong_o and_o will_v make_v the_o world_n believe_v their_o readmission_n to_o be_v guilty_a of_o i_o

that_o all_o such_o image_n may_v continue_v whence_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o our_o church_n at_o the_o reformation_n do_v not_o condemn_v any_o civil_a use_v of_o image_n no_o not_o in_o sacred_a
