thrice_o before_o excommunication_n much_o more_o may_v a_o whole_a church_n expect_v it_o 3._o we_o be_v come_v out_o of_o babylon_n by_o god_n blessing_n in_o that_o we_o have_v pull_v down_o the_o temple_n of_o their_o idol_n in_o that_o both_o in_o substance_n of_o doctrine_n and_o sacrament_n our_o ministry_n agree_v with_o the_o scripture_n the_o head_n of_o dagon_n be_v cut_v off_o his_o stump_n cast_v down_o and_o cast_v out_o and_o we_o labour_v in_o purge_v away_o all_o the_o scent_n and_o stink_n of_o he_o so_o far_o be_v we_o from_o worship_v the_o beast_n or_o receive_v his_o image_n 4._o we_o can_v therefore_o separate_v from_o the_o church_n of_o england_n but_o we_o must_v go_v out_o from_o the_o true_a church_n of_o god_n and_o from_o the_o spouse_n of_o christ_n who_o acknowledge_v christ_n for_o her_o head_n and_o foundation_n and_o by_o believe_v in_o his_o righteousness_n alone_o be_v make_v a_o member_n of_o his_o body_n no_o reason_n will_v serve_v these_o unreasonable_a man_n for_o than_o i_o may_v now_o get_v from_o they_o but_o their_o importunity_n stay_v i_o to_o answer_v one_o objection_n and_o so_o i_o will_v leave_v they_o object_n but_o what_o a_o number_n of_o corruption_n have_v you_o a_o heap_n of_o man_n tradition_n which_o christ_n never_o acknowledge_v but_o breed_v and_o bear_v in_o babylon_n and_o what_o a_o number_n of_o god_n ordinance_n do_v you_o want_v which_o a_o true_a church_n of_o christ_n can_v want_v and_o can_v you_o be_v a_o church_n of_o christ_n answ._n 1._o be_v not_o lot_n get_v out_o of_o sodom_n when_o he_o see_v the_o smoke_n of_o the_o city_n if_o it_o be_v grant_v then_o that_o a_o little_a smoke_n of_o the_o city_n do_v trouble_v our_o eye_n must_v it_o follow_v that_o we_o be_v still_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o babylon_n 2._o they_o point_v we_o to_o some_o corruption_n and_o error_n to_o which_o i_o say_v 1._o let_v they_o show_v i_o a_o soil_n in_o the_o world_n where_o wheat_n grow_v without_o some_o chaff_n and_o i_o will_v go_v with_o they_o but_o that_o be_v not_o at_o amsterdam_n 2._o none_o of_o the_o corruption_n which_o they_o false_o term_v be_v of_o that_o high_a nature_n as_o to_o call_v for_o a_o personal_a separation_n because_o none_o of_o they_o be_v fundamental_a the_o least_o corruption_n that_o we_o can_v certain_o espy_v which_o yet_o be_v not_o in_o constitution_n but_o in_o execution_n we_o must_v separate_v from_o in_o judgement_n in_o affection_n in_o practice_n but_o to_o separate_v personal_o for_o any_o error_n not_o fundamental_a let_v they_o teach_v it_o they_o to_o who_o all_o error_n be_v alike_o but_o we_o may_v not_o be_v so_o dull_a 3._o our_o church_n be_v join_v to_o the_o head_n jesus_n christ_n and_o retain_v the_o vital_a part_n of_o the_o word_n and_o sacrament_n neither_o if_o want_v of_o something_o which_o shall_v be_v present_a nor_o if_o remain_v something_o to_o be_v cast_v out_o can_v thrust_v she_o from_o the_o right_n and_o title_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n but_o be_v in_o essence_n and_o be_v a_o spouse_n of_o christ._n for_o example_n cut_v off_o both_o a_o man_n arm_n both_o his_o leg_n cut_v off_o his_o ear_n and_o nose_n now_o he_o want_v many_o thing_n which_o a_o man_n shall_v have_v but_o yet_o so_o long_o as_o the_o head_n stand_v alive_a upon_o the_o body_n and_o other_o vital_a part_n remain_v he_o be_v indeed_o a_o man_n although_o a_o maim_a one_o again_o suppose_v a_o man_n have_v ten_o finger_n on_o a_o hand_n or_o three_o arm_n or_o suppose_v a_o hand_n stand_v where_o the_o foot_n shall_v stand_v or_o the_o mouth_n be_v set_v in_o the_o forehead_n here_o be_v a_o great_a aberration_n and_o confusion_n against_o natural_a symmetry_n of_o a_o man_n body_n yet_o he_o be_v a_o man_n though_o a_o very_a deform_a one_o whereas_o where_o there_o be_v no_o head_n or_o no_o union_n of_o member_n to_o that_o head_n there_o be_v no_o body_n no_o man_n so_o whatsoever_o they_o can_v say_v though_o false_o be_v want_v in_o our_o church_n or_o whatsoever_o they_o say_v be_v redundant_fw-la or_o superfluous_a she_o be_v found_v on_o christ_n her_o head_n and_o true_o dispense_n the_o word_n and_o sacrament_n they_o can_v overthrow_v she_o be_v of_o a_o true_a church_n of_o christ._n 4._o to_o conclude_v with_o they_o some_o thing_n make_v to_o the_o be_v of_o a_o church_n some_o to_o the_o comeliness_n and_o well_o be_v of_o it_o if_o their_o nimble_a eye_n can_v find_v never_o so_o many_o abuse_v not_o fundamental_a all_o these_o shall_v only_o make_v to_o the_o disgrace_n and_o uncomelinesse_n of_o the_o church_n but_o shall_v never_o overthrow_v the_o be_v of_o it_o whatsoever_o we_o want_v let_v not_o god_n want_v his_o praise_n nor_o we_o thankfulness_n that_o we_o want_v not_o that_o whereby_o god_n people_n may_v enjoy_v the_o joy_n of_o their_o salvation_n and_o this_o may_v serve_v for_o answer_v to_o those_o separatist_n if_o all_o the_o corruption_n they_o charge_v we_o with_o be_v true_o object_v against_o we_o as_o they_o be_v not_o 3._o to_o the_o three_o sort_n who_o go_v away_o from_o we_o to_o babylon_n because_o they_o be_v never_o of_o we_o will_v to_o god_n they_o will_v timely_o consider_v 1._o if_o the_o lord_n be_v so_o earnest_a that_o his_o people_n which_o be_v in_o babylon_n shall_v fly_v out_o of_o she_o it_o can_v but_o be_v too_o preposterous_a and_o desperate_a for_o those_o that_o be_v get_v out_o to_o run_v in_o again_o 2._o that_o if_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o the_o lord_n people_n to_o depart_v out_o of_o babylon_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o he_o or_o she_o that_o be_v not_o the_o lord_n to_o run_v into_o she_o and_o so_o to_o continue_v 3._o what_o be_v the_o fearful_a hire_n of_o apostasy_n and_o apostate_n of_o who_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n speak_v lothsome_o as_o of_o dog_n and_o swine_n turn_v to_o their_o vomit_n and_o wallow_v what_o can_v be_v the_o expectation_n of_o such_o as_o forsake_v the_o sound_a profession_n of_o the_o gospel_n fall_v away_o from_o christ_n to_o antichrist_n but_o the_o most_o dreadful_a doom_n which_o be_v to_o be_v award_v against_o the_o lord_n most_o curse_a enemy_n 4._o that_o they_o sin_n without_o a_o cause_n which_o aggravate_v the_o sin_n nay_o against_o so_o clear_a a_o light_n and_o truth_n enact_v protect_v crown_v and_o in_o these_o day_n after_o 70._o year_n of_o the_o sunshine_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o have_v be_v the_o best_a time_n the_o gospel_n have_v have_v in_o the_o world_n for_o so_o long_o together_o this_o thirteen_o hundred_o year_n so_o as_o for_o our_o mean_n we_o may_v have_v be_v as_o stable_a as_o rock_n upon_o our_o rock_n and_o foundation_n 5._o that_o they_o sin_n against_o a_o special_a commandment_n of_o god_n yea_o against_o a_o voice_n from_o heaven_n in_o this_o text_n they_o can_v say_v in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n they_o be_v not_o warn_v last_o because_o they_o love_v to_o look_v upon_o picture_n now_o leave_v they_o i_o will_v leave_v with_o they_o a_o emblem_n of_o such_o graceless_a apostate_n as_o themselves_o when_o israel_n be_v in_o the_o wilderness_n god_n give_v they_o a_o daily_a harvest_n of_o mannah_n from_o heaven_n but_o they_o grow_v weary_a of_o the_o lord_n provision_n they_o remember_v the_o garlic_n the_o leek_n and_o onion_n of_o egypt_n and_o back_o they_o will_v to_o egypt_n in_o all_o haste_n but_o all_o the_o while_o they_o remember_v not_o the_o oppression_n tyranny_n stripe_n labour_n sigh_n burden_n the_o brick_n and_o fiery_a furnace_n so_o do_v these_o look_v after_o the_o pomp_n pride_n wealth_n and_o liberty_n of_o romish_n egypt_n but_o remember_v not_o the_o miserable_a servitude_n and_o bondage_n and_o their_o tyranny_n upon_o their_o conscience_n they_o remember_v not_o their_o traitorous_a doctrine_n their_o miserable_a attempt_n against_o king_n and_o kingdom_n their_o furious_a fire_n their_o perfidious_a massacre_n their_o bloody_a inquisition_n they_o remember_v not_o what_o comfortless_a hope_n that_o doctrine_n and_o religion_n will_v afford_v they_o in_o the_o day_n of_o their_o death_n for_o there_o be_v no_o understanding_n papist_n dare_v truss_v unto_o it_o and_o yet_o look_v back_o they_o will_n but_o what_o be_v the_o issue_n and_o conclusion_n of_o all_o as_o all_o they_o in_o the_o wilderness_n miserable_o die_v and_o never_o enter_v into_o the_o land_n of_o rest_n so_o these_o apostate_n may_v exchange_v mannah_n with_o garlic_n for_o the_o present_a but_o in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n visitation_n they_o shall_v reap_v according_a to_o their_o sow_v when_o greatness_n nor_o wealth_n when_o jesuitical_a subtlety_n nor_o penal_a satisfaction_n neither_o shall_v
