A74960	The cause of God, and of these nations sought out, and drawn forth from the rubbish of the lusts and interests of men, and lifted up into sight and view for all the upright in heart to follow it. Wherein is shewed, what our cause was. What opportunity we had for it. How miserably it has been deserted. What was the cause of that desertion. The spiritual judgment that is already upon the desertors. With a word of encouragement to all the faithful, and persevering friends of it.		1659 (1659)	Wing C1533; Thomason E968_11; ESTC R207703	35,047	47

gainer_n i_o be_o i_o confess_v so_o much_o a_o leveller_n that_o in_o this_o corrupt_a state_n of_o man_n principle_n and_o mind_n corruptible_a at_o the_o best_a it_o be_v safe_a for_o law_n to_o
