A86500	The mischeife of mixt communions, fully discussed. All maine arguments on both sides, are largely canvased. Many difficulties demonstratively cleared, as that Judas was not at the Lords Supper, &c. When, and how was the originall of parishes in England. Severall cases of conscience resolved. As in case unworthy ones thrust into the Lords Supper; what single Christians should doe, and what the congregation should doe. A discovery what is the originall, and rise of all these disputes, and how a faire end may be put to all. / By Doctor Nathanael Homes.

no_o not_o in_o the_o 1_o cor._n 5._o for_o we_o argue_v thus_o if_o they_o be_v blame_v for_o not_o cast_v out_o unworthy_a person_n but_o let_v they_o abide_v as_o member_n with_o they_o in_o 1_o

11._o the_o apostle_n bid_v they_o examine_v themselves_o whether_o this_o be_v right_o receive_v and_o bring_v they_o to_o the_o institution_n just_a as_o christ_n reprove_v sin_n against_o
