A85045	A discourse of the visible church. In a large debate of this famous question, viz. whether the visible church may be considered to be truely a church of Christ without respect to saving grace? Affirm. Whereunto is added a brief discussion of these three questions. viz. 1. What doth constitute visible church-membership. 2. What doth distinguish it, or render it visible. 3. What doth destroy it, or render it null? Together with a large application of the whole, by way of inference to our churches, sacraments, and censures. Also an appendix touching confirmation, occasioned by the Reverend Mr. Hanmore his pious and learned exercitation of confirmation. By Francis Fulwood minister of the gospel at West-Alvington in Devon.	Fullwood, Francis, d. 1693.	1658 (1658)	Wing F2500; Thomason E947_3; ESTC R207619	279,090	362

can_v be_v a_o proper_a mean_n of_o edification_n to_o those_o for_o who_o it_o be_v not_o appoint_v for_o the_o end_n and_o use_v of_o sacrament_n depend_v upon_o their_o appointment_n but_o now_o

in_o a_o direct_a intention_n and_o order_n to_o edification_n as_o edification_n be_v oppose_v to_o destruction_n as_o be_v plain_a 1_o cor._n 5._o 5_o 13._o now_o to_o apply_v this_o if_o all_o

edification_n be_v oppose_v to_o destruction_n that_o be_v a_o direct_a and_o proper_a mean_n of_o hinder_v destruction_n and_o consequent_o of_o edification_n but_o here_o the_o great_a question_n be_v how_o or_o by_o what_o mean_v out_o how_o may_v the_o ignorant_a be_v find_v out_o quest_n may_v such_o as_o be_v thus_o gross_o ignorant_a be_v detect_v or_o find_v out_o which_o way_n may_v minister_n proceed_v to_o discover_v ignorant_a person_n i_o answer_v first_o in_o general_n by_o this_o argument_n that_o which_o command_v the_o end_n allow_v the_o mean_n which_o necessary_o help_v answ_n or_o serve_v unto_o the_o end_n this_o must_v needs_o be_v yield_v we_o as_o the_o most_o easy_a and_o reasonable_a limitation_n of_o the_o rule_n posito_fw-la sine_fw-la ponuntur_fw-la media_fw-la therefore_o such_o mean_n as_o be_v necessary_o conduce_v to_o this_o end_n of_o discover_v the_o gross_o ignorant_a and_o such_o as_o can_v examine_v themselves_o must_v needs_o be_v allow_v and_o for_o my_o part_n i_o desire_v i_o plead_v for_o no_o more_o this_o will_v be_v general_o grant_v i_o but_o yet_o some_o very_a learned_a and_o worthy_a man_n will_v limit_v the_o use_n of_o these_o mean_n of_o discover_v obj._n the_o ignorant_a to_o such_o only_a as_o may_v be_v fair_o suspect_v to_o be_v ignorant_a to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o to_o i_o it_o seem_v not_o only_o uncharitable_a but_o unreasonable_a to_o use_v mean_n of_o discover_v the_o knowledge_n answ_n of_o such_o who_o knowledge_n we_o be_v satisfy_v of_o before_o to_o this_o end_n that_o we_o may_v

use_v mean_n to_o discover_v ignorance_n which_o be_v not_o liable_a to_o any_o fair_a suspicion_n but_o the_o great_a doubt_n be_v who_o may_v be_v think_v to_o be_v suspicious_a obj._n or_o suspect_v of_o ignorance_n suspect_v who_o suspect_v 1._o i_o conceive_v we_o shall_v not_o differ_v with_o many_o if_o in_o general_a we_o say_v that_o this_o suspicion_n take_v in_o all_o the_o

thus_o we_o know_v that_o all_o these_o be_v ignorant_a and_o we_o have_v not_o be_v satisfy_v of_o their_o knowledge_n as_o because_o we_o know_v that_o a_o person_n excommunicate_a be_v scandalous_a he_o be_v still_o just_o liable_a to_o suspicion_n until_o we_o be_v satisfy_v of_o his_o repentance_n this_o i_o think_v be_v general_o allow_v we_o see_v few_o deny_v we_o the_o liberty_n of_o examine_v youth_n in_o order_n to_o their_o admission_n to_o the_o supper_n which_o i_o do_v very_o believe_v give_v i_o leave_v to_o say_v so_o without_o offence_n if_o well_o emprove_v may_v lay_v a_o groundwork_n of_o a_o better_a reformation_n for_o the_o next_o age_n than_o we_o shall_v ever_o see_v by_o the_o zealous_a press_v the_o necessity_n of_o examination_n upon_o all_o in_o the_o
