A94750	A vvord of reproof to the priests or ministers, who boast of their ministery and ordinances, and yet live in pride, disdain, persecution, &c. Shevving what such are; and how little cause they have to exclaim against those who separate from them. As also a word to the papists discovering their foundation to be carnal and sandie. In a letter sent to some supposed priests or Jesuites in the north, by William Tomlinson.	Tomlinson, William.	1653 (1653)	Wing T1855; Thomason E691_9; ESTC R206966	29,084	49

yet_o the_o name_n church_n move_v not_o with_o it_o but_o rest_v upon_o that_o idolised_a temple_n and_o when_o none_o be_v in_o it_o yet_o it_o be_v call_v church_n again_o if_o you_o shall_v call_v the_o congregation_n the_o church_n yet_o consider_v what_o you_o do_v for_o as_o i_o say_v the_o church_n be_v the_o very_a body_n of_o christ_n act_v by_o that_o unction_n which_o be_v christ_n
