religion_n may_v not_o be_v reducible_a into_o a_o coalition_n or_o unity_n i_o answer_v no_o because_o they_o be_v so_o contrariant_n that_o they_o can_v never_o cement_v so_o as_o to_o yield_v a_o safe_a conduct_n to_o eternal_a life_n inasmuch_o as_o christ_n himself_o aver_v that_o in_o vain_a do_v all_o such_o worship_n he_o who_o teach_v for_o divine_a doctrine_n the_o tradition_n of_o man_n that_o whosoever_o add_v or_o diminish_v from_o scriptural-fundamentals_a despise_v and_o seek_v to_o nullify_v the_o wisdom_n and_o authority_n of_o god_n himself_o that_o popish_a principle_n undermine_v and_o subvert_v the_o all-sufficiency_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o execution_n of_o his_o office_n that_o as_o socinian_n can_v be_v account_v christian_n who_o deny_v the_o divinity_n of_o christ_n person_n so_o romanist_n who_o invalidate_n his_o office_n be_v antichristian_a in_o their_o spirit_n and_o in_o their_o mis-belief_n therefore_o there_o be_v no_o more_o hope_n that_o two_o religion_n so_o opposite_a shall_v ever_o cement_v in_o one_o according_a to_o the_o analogy_n of_o faith_n prescribe_v by_o christ_n than_o that_o light_n and_o darkness_n shall_v agree_v or_o have_v fellowship_n nor_o can_v there_o be_v any_o colour_n of_o right_a reason_n for_o that_o distinction_n that_o popish_a tradition_n be_v rather_o beside_o the_o rule_n and_o dictate_v of_o the_o scripture_n than_o direct_o contrary_a to_o they_o for_o whatever_o be_v not_o agreeable_a to_o the_o reveal_v perfect_a will_n of_o god_n either_o direct_o or_o by_o natural_a consequence_n or_o by_o
