A62900 The principles of the Papists by which their leaders put them upon bloody and treacherous practices, plainly demonstrated by the Scriptures to be most erroneous and wicked. And a few better principles briefly laid down, for them (or others) to meditate on, tending to a peaceable life among men, &c. And also a few quæries left them last of all, to satisfie their consciences in. Partly for the sakes of those among them whose consciences have some tenderness in them, and are not quite feared: partly also for those who through ignorance are too much inclining to them. Also there may be some service of these things to others. By a lover of truth, mercifulness, plain-heartedness, humility and fidelity, W. T. Tomlinson, William. 1679 (1679) Wing T1850; ESTC R221759 49,364 105

of_o christ_n and_o all_o that_o depart_v from_o they_o be_v heretic_n that_o there_o be_v once_o a_o true_a church_n and_o a_o precious_a church_n of_o christ_n at_o rome_n i_o grant_v while_o they_o follow_v the_o doctrine_n and_o innocent_a life_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o holy_a apostle_n but_o since_o they_o be_v fall_v therefrom_o into_o the_o murder_a and_o lie_v treacherous_a spirit_n they_o be_v become_v degenerate_a and_o thereby_o cut_v themselves_o off_o as_o a_o branch_n wither_a be_v cut_v off_o from_o the_o vine_n but_o here_o by_o the_o way_n before_o i_o proceed_v any_o further_a i_o desire_v to_o be_v right_o understand_v that_o the_o bend_v of_o my_o discourse_n be_v not_o against_o those_o that_o be_v simplehearted_n and_o harmless_a among_o they_o and_o honest_a according_a to_o their_o knowledge_n but_o it_o be_v against_o the_o roll_a and_o lead_v part_n who_o lead_v the_o rest_n into_o evil_n these_o be_v fall_v away_o from_o christ_n and_o hold_v other_o in_o bondage_n and_o keep_v they_o in_o captivity_n as_o the_o israelite_n be_v keep_v captive_n in_o babylon_n of_o old_a so_o there_o be_v a_o people_n that_o god_n call_v his_o people_n in_o

he_o have_v not_o a_o people_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o babylon_n this_o be_v premise_v which_o i_o desire_v may_v be_v mind_v all_o along_o i_o shall_v now_o for_o the_o find_v out_o of_o the_o truth_n or_o falsehood_n of_o this_o four_o principle_n put_v the_o question_n thus_o viz._n whether_o the_o present_a church_n of_o rome_n that_o be_v the_o roll_a lead_v part_n and_o the_o rule_v

be_v the_o only_a true_a church_n of_o christ_n now_o for_o the_o ready_a find_n out_o of_o the_o truth_n or_o falsehood_n in_o this_o question_n i_o shall_v set_v another_o by_o it_o which_o may_v run_v parallel_n with_o it_o to_o give_v light_a to_o it_o namely_o whether_o a_o people_n teach_v or_o by_o principle_n practise_v lie_v perjury_n or_o false_a swear_n hypocrisy_n and_o dissimulation_n plot_n and_o conspiracy_n to_o destroy_v other_o assassination_n secret_a murder_n and_o open_a massacre_n and_o other_o such_o like_a abomination_n and_o all_o this_o with_o consent_n and_o approbation_n of_o their_o church_n whether_o such_o a_o people_n be_v the_o only_a true_a church_n of_o christ_n and_o all_o that_o withdraw_v from_o they_o be_v heretic_n thus_o the_o question_n be_v true_o state_v concern_v the_o present_a church_n of_o rome_n as_o their_o action_n make_v it_o manifest_a and_o be_v thus_o state_v i_o think_v i_o may_v leave_v the_o decide_n of_o it_o to_o the_o mean_a capacity_n where_o there_o be_v any_o grain_n of_o honesty_n leave_v in_o their_o heart_n towards_o christ_n jesus_n the_o head_n of_o his_o church_n for_o certain_o none_o

among_o man_n so_o that_o they_o be_v of_o no_o danger_n to_o other_o among_o who_o they_o live_v but_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v come_v to_o that_o that_o she_o be_v become_v the_o pillar_n

will_v easy_o be_v convince_v that_o the_o withdraw_n from_o this_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v not_o make_v a_o man_n a_o heretic_n i_o also_o further_o affirm_v that_o he_o be_v no_o heretic_n that_o

requiring_n have_v do_v now_o with_o this_o principle_n wherewith_o they_o so_o magnify_v themselves_o and_o will_v frighten_v other_o i_o proceed_v to_o the_o next_o 5._o the_o 5_o principle_n i_o

there_o be_v no_o salvation_n but_o among_o bloodthirsty_a murderer_n and_o liar_n and_o false_a swearer_n and_o such_o like_a but_o observe_v the_o craft_n and_o cunning_n of_o this_o principle_n which_o rome_n make_v use_v of_o to_o her_o own_o advantage_n first_o it_o serve_v as_o a_o decoy_n to_o draw_v in_o the_o simple_a among_o they_o under_o hope_n that_o there_o they_o may_v find_v

believe_v although_o by_o their_o fruit_n the_o lord_n have_v make_v they_o manifest_a to_o be_v a_o nursery_n of_o abomination_n but_o put_v case_n that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v the_o only_a
