church_n and_o namely_o in_o excommunication_n now_o there_o be_v three_o special_a end_n thereof_o the_o first_o be_v that_o those_o which_o be_v of_o wicked_a life_n and_o conversation_n may_v not_o have_v any_o place_n amongst_o true_a christian_n to_o the_o contempt_n of_o god_n name_n the_o second_o be_v that_o good_a people_n may_v not_o be_v corrupt_v by_o the_o conversation_n of_o the_o wicked_a 5.6_o 1._o cor._n 5.6_o for_o a_o little_a leaven_n leaven_v the_o whole_a lump_n the_o three_o be_v that_o they_o which_o have_v fall_v and_o offend_v may_v be_v confound_v and_o ashamed_a

12._o sect._n 5._o 5._o calu._n lib._n 4._o inst_z cap._n 12._o sect_n 5._o whereof_o the_o sum_n be_v that_o in_o correction_n and_o censure_n man_n must_v regard_v and_o look_v to_o three_o end_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n the_o edification_n of_o the_o church_n and_o the_o repentance_n and_o conversion_n of_o sinner_n the_o five_o consideration_n be_v that_o man_n in_o the_o reprehension_n and_o censure_n of_o the_o church_n look_v well_o to_o this_o that_o they_o have_v not_o such_o consideration_n regard_n or_o respect_n to_o the_o outward_a appearance_n and_o

10.17_o gal._n 3.28_o for_o as_o god_n accept_v no_o man_n person_n and_o in_o the_o church_n there_o be_v neither_o jew_n nor_o grecian_a bond_n nor_o free_a male_a nor_o female_a but_o all_o be_v one_o in_o jesus_n christ_n so_o the_o governor_n of_o the_o church_n ought_v always_o to_o walk_v with_o a_o upright_o and_o equal_a foot_n without_o turn_v aside_o any_o manner_n of_o way_n in_o receive_v and_o allow_v some_o and_o in_o refuse_v and_o disallow_v other_o it_o be_v very_o true_a that_o correction_n ought_v always_o to_o be_v temper_v measure_a and_o accompany_v with_o gentleness_n softness_n and_o courtesy_n to_o the_o end_n as_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o he_o that_o be_v reprove_v or_o blame_v 2.7_o 2._o cor._n 2.7_o may_v not_o be_v swallow_v up_o with_o over_o much_o heaviness_n for_o otherwise_o we_o shall_v turn_v the_o the_o remedy_n into_o poison_n and_o hurt_v and_o therefore_o the_o same_o apostle_n do_v exhort_v we_o 6.1_o gal._n 6.1_o that_o we_o shall_v restore_v with_o the_o spirit_n of_o meekness_n such_o as_o be_v fall_v into_o or_o overtake_v with_o some_o fault_n 5.12_o 1._o tim._n 5.12_o and_o again_o rebuke_v not_o say_v he_o a_o

far_o off_o be_v it_o that_o they_o ought_v to_o spare_v any_o man_n that_o the_o correction_n must_v be_v equal_o and_o indifferent_o apply_v and_o administer_v to_o all_o they_o which_o shall_v
