A26901	The church told of Mr. Ed. Bagshaw's scandals and warned of the dangerous snares of Satan now laid for them in his love-killing principles with a farther proof that it is our common duty to keep up the interest of the Christian religion and Protestant cause in the parish churches, and not to imprison them by a confinement to tolerated meetings alone / by Richard Baxter ...	Baxter, Richard, 1615-1691.	1672 (1672)	Wing B1226; ESTC R1907	28,184	36

discharge_v i_o from_o speak_v to_o they_o any_o more_o and_o god_n i_o think_v discharge_v i_o at_o present_a i_o see_v nothing_o more_o to_o be_v attempt_v but_o with_o the_o other_o who_o duty_n for_o concord_n and_o christian_a love_n after_o many_o year_n silence_n i_o open_v in_o a_o treatise_n call_v the_o cure_n of_o church-division_n but_o yet_o will_v not_o publish_v it_o without_o a_o addition_n of_o the_o duty_n of_o those_o pastor_n that_o most_o complain_v against_o separation_n lest_o i_o shall_v exasperate_v their_o mind_n against_o those_o that_o i_o instruct_v and_o shall_v tempt_v they_o to_o overlook_v their_o own_o miscarriage_n but_o more_o of_o this_o than_o i_o there_o adjoin_v it_o can_v not_o be_v expect_v that_o the_o licenser_n shall_v pass_v the_o only_a man_n that_o rise_v up_o against_o this_o write_n with_o furious_a indignation_n be_v mr._n edw._n bagshaw_n a_o man_n that_o have_v before_o write_v against_o bishop_n morley_n letter_n publish_v against_o i_o and_o lie_v in_o prison_n many_o year_n and_o give_v the_o world_n a_o notable_a proof_n of_o one_o of_o the_o chief_a passage_n displease_v to_o they_o in_o my_o book_n viz._n that_o there_o be_v a_o marvellous_a affinity_n between_o the_o spirit_n of_o persecution_n and_o of_o sinful_a separation_n though_o several_a opinion_n or_o capacity_n cause_v they_o to_o operate_v several_a way_n by_o this_o time_n i_o discern_v the_o guilty_a from_o the_o innocent_a by_o the_o cry_n which_o signify_v their_o smart_n i_o have_v see_v so_o much_o of_o the_o work_n of_o that_o spirit_n that_o i_o expect_v not_o to_o escape_v their_o sharp_a censure_n and_o very_o i_o expect_v neither_o preferment_n nor_o so_o much_o as_o liberty_n to_o preach_v as_o a_o reward_n from_o the_o other_o side_n instead_o of_o the_o favour_n of_o those_o that_o i_o know_v i_o be_v to_o lose_v nor_o yet_o have_v i_o such_o a_o contempt_n of_o they_o or_o a_o desire_n to_o be_v bitter_o censure_v and_o revile_v as_o to_o invite_v man_n to_o it_o as_o the_o circumcellian_o importune_v man_n to_o kill_v they_o i_o foresee_v that_o some_o interest_v man_n will_v be_v angry_a as_o suppose_v that_o i_o will_v hinder_v their_o alienate_a work_n though_o they_o can_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o i_o speak_v the_o truth_n i_o foresee_v that_o many_o that_o look_v but_o to_o the_o present_a day_n and_o place_n will_v say_v it_o be_v unseasonable_a and_o serve_v the_o prelate_n design_n not_o consider_v that_o their_o design_n be_v not_o to_o bad_a but_o that_o some_o thing_n which_o seem_v their_o design_n do_v also_o seem_v the_o design_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o church_n good_a and_o man_n salvation_n i_o foreknow_v those_o that_o make_v uncharitable_a division_n their_o very_a religion_n will_v make_v it_o a_o part_n of_o their_o religious_a duty_n to_o call_v i_o as_o bad_a as_o their_o distemper_n do_v incline_v they_o these_o thing_n i_o prognosticate_v in_o my_o preface_n as_o tertullian_n say_v of_o the_o christian_n martyrdom_n it_o be_v more_o the_o choice_n of_o our_o own_o will_n than_o the_o effect_n of_o your_o power_n i_o e._n we_o die_v because_o we_o will_v die_v rather_o than_o not_o do_v our_o duty_n by_o the_o omission_n of_o which_o we_o can_v escape_v so_o i_o say_v i_o can_v easy_o have_v keep_v as_o large_a a_o interest_n in_o the_o favour_n and_o applause_n of_o all_o the_o party_n that_o ever_o rail_v at_o i_o as_o most_o man_n of_o my_o profession_n as_o their_o own_o word_n have_v tell_v i_o what_o do_v it_o gain_v i_o in_o the_o world_n to_o do_v what_o i_o have_v do_v to_o lose_v the_o favour_n of_o the_o papist_n the_o ithacian_a prelatist_n the_o anabaptist_n the_o separatist_n the_o quaker_n the_o seeker_n etc._n etc._n but_o i_o see_v whither_o the_o temptation_n of_o this_o age_n do_v tend_v and_o this_o be_v a_o work_n that_o some_o body_n must_v do_v or_o else_o woe_n to_o the_o ministry_n that_o in_o their_o very_a suffering_n will_v be_v so_o unfaithful_a and_o i_o think_v my_o reputation_n with_o the_o uncurable_a as_o fit_a to_o be_v cast_v away_o and_o myself_o as_o fit_a to_o bear_v their_o slander_n as_o most_o of_o my_o brethren_n who_o have_v more_o use_n for_o a_o interest_n in_o they_o than_o i_o have_v and_o i_o remember_v that_o ill-gotten_a good_n must_v be_v restore_v and_o without_o restitution_n no_o remission_n though_o i_o can_v true_o say_v that_o i_o dislike_v and_o decry_v this_o spirit_n from_o my_o beginning_n yet_o when_o i_o preach_v first_o the_o favour_n and_o loud_a applause_n of_o some_o good_a people_n taint_v a_o little_a with_o this_o disease_n do_v tempt_v i_o to_o please_v they_o too_o often_o by_o exclaim_v too_o smart_o against_o the_o corruption_n of_o the_o church_n though_o i_o say_v nothing_o but_o what_o i_o be_v confident_a be_v true_a yet_o i_o think_v i_o do_v not_o well_o to_o cherish_v their_o inordinate_a censoriousness_n in_o such_o matter_n and_o have_v get_v sometime_o a_o great_a stock_n of_o estimation_n with_o such_o angry_a person_n by_o mean_n which_o i_o dare_v not_o whole_o justify_v though_o it_o make_v i_o the_o more_o capable_a to_o do_v they_o good_a i_o do_v voluntary_o surrender_v it_o to_o they_o again_o before_o they_o take_v it_o from_o i_o and_o i_o do_v yield_v to_o serve_v god_n at_o the_o rate_n of_o so_o small_a a_o part_n of_o self-denial_n rather_o than_o be_v silent_a at_o such_o a_o time_n as_o this_o i_o have_v long_o ago_o preach_v to_o drunkard_n and_o other_o ungodly_a people_n till_o they_o open_o rise_v against_o i_o in_o tumult_n in_o the_o street_n and_o seek_v my_o life_n and_o shall_v i_o forbear_v to_o speak_v that_o truth_n to_o ignorant-proud_a divider_n which_o be_v necessary_a to_o heal_v the_o church_n and_o they_o and_o all_o for_o fear_v lest_o their_o passion_n and_o partiality_n shall_v show_v their_o guilt_n by_o their_o call_v i_o what_o they_o be_v themselves_o they_o call_v out_o for_o valiantness_n in_o suffer_v themselves_o and_o shall_v i_o be_v so_o cowardly_a as_o to_o fear_v their_o false_a report_n they_o cry_v out_o against_o the_o fear_n of_o man_n and_o shall_v i_o fear_v their_o impotent_a revile_n they_o will_v be_v my_o witness_n that_o it_o be_v a_o duty_n to_o deny_v ourselves_o and_o to_o forsake_v all_o for_o the_o cause_n of_o christ_n and_o i_o be_o as_o certain_a that_o love_n and_o unity_n be_v his_o cause_n as_o i_o be_o that_o he_o be_v the_o christ_n and_o shall_v i_o think_v the_o good_a thought_n and_o word_n of_o some_o of_o his_o froward_a child_n too_o great_a a_o matter_n to_o forsake_v and_o lose_v they_o themselves_o think_v that_o we_o shall_v rather_o suffer_v a_o prison_n or_o death_n then_o join_v with_o the_o holy_a minister_n and_o people_n in_o the_o use_n of_o the_o common_a prayer_n and_o shall_v i_o that_o know_v the_o difference_n think_v that_o love_n and_o concord_n be_v not_o matter_n more_o worthy_a to_o be_v suffer_v for_o when_o first_o the_o city_n and_o country_n have_v sound_v with_o abundance_n of_o untruth_n about_o my_o book_n while_o it_o be_v yet_o but_o in_o the_o press_n at_o last_o the_o man_n that_o open_o assault_v it_o when_o it_o come_v forth_o do_v use_v the_o same_o instrument_n which_o himself_o decry_v and_o fill_v his_o libel_n with_o as_o many_o untruth_n as_o ever_o i_o see_v heap_v up_o in_o so_o small_a a_o room_n except_o once_o in_o such_o another_o piece_n that_o be_v about_o eight_o year_n elder_a and_o the_o cause_n itself_o he_o shameful_o slip_v over_o as_o if_o his_o spirit_n and_o interest_n have_v direct_v he_o to_o no_o other_o mean_n but_o only_o to_o attempt_v to_o asperse_v the_o person_n that_o be_v against_o he_o i_o wonder_v that_o no_o sober_a a_o man_n rise_v up_o to_o defend_v dividing-principle_n and_o i_o be_v glad_a that_o in_o a_o age_n of_o such_o temptation_n he_o have_v no_o more_o approver_n among_o the_o minister_n when_o i_o have_v answer_v that_o libel_n he_o send_v forth_o another_o which_o instead_o of_o profess_v repentance_n do_v double_a the_o number_n of_o his_o untruth_n and_o cast_v out_o more_o of_o his_o bilious_a excrement_n but_o pretend_v also_o to_o say_v somewhat_o for_o his_o separate_n principle_n and_o cause_n when_o i_o have_v reply_v to_o that_o and_o admonish_v he_o to_o repent_v of_o his_o false_a doctrine_n and_o crime_n and_o above_o fourscore_o visible_a untruth_n he_o have_v vent_v a_o three_o libel_n of_o which_o i_o be_o now_o to_o give_v you_o a_o more_o particular_a
