destroy_v they_o for_o it_o be_v very_o like_a that_o many_o promoter_n of_o schism_n and_o faction_n may_v intend_v well_o but_o we_o must_v not_o trust_v to_o the_o goodness_n of_o our_o meaning_n but_o look_v to_o the_o soundness_n of_o our_o understanding_n it_o be_v not_o hard_a to_o believe_v that_o when_o the_o jew_n and_o the_o gentle_a crucify_a the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o murder_v his_o servant_n they_o mean_v well_o in_o both_o nor_o can_v we_o doubt_v with_o any_o charity_n but_o when_o zealous_a papist_n and_o religious_a pagan_n burn_v the_o martyr_n they_o intend_v good_a the_o text_n say_v that_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o every_o one_o that_o kill_v you_o will_v think_v that_o he_o do_v god_n service_n if_o so_o then_o take_v we_o heed_n of_o all_o gross_a mistake_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o our_o religion_n let_v we_o beware_v lest_o we_o be_v corrupt_v in_o our_o judgement_n either_o by_o the_o papist_n on_o the_o one_o hand_n or_o the_o sectary_n on_o the_o other_o let_v we_o not_o satisfy_v ourselves_o that_o our_o intention_n be_v right_a but_o look_v we_o that_o our_o information_n be_v not_o wrong_a for_o if_o they_o be_v what_o we_o do_v as_o duty_n may_v prove_v our_o crime_n and_o upon_o that_o supposition_n the_o more_o of_o zeal_n the_o more_o of_o sin_n 2._o consider_v we_o what_o it_o be_v that_o we_o must_v expect_v from_o those_o man_n be_v we_o in_o their_o power_n who_o pursue_v we_o upon_o the_o interest_n of_o religion_n or_o at_o least_o pretend_v to_o do_v so_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o they_o of_o the_o roman_a church_n have_v as_o great_a reason_n upon_o religious_a account_n and_o probable_o far_a great_a upon_o worldly_a consideration_n to_o be_v as_o zealous_a for_o their_o doctrine_n and_o worship_n as_o ever_o the_o jew_n or_o pagan_n be_v for_o they_o nor_o be_v it_o to_o be_v dispute_v but_o we_o of_o the_o reform_a church_n do_v differ_v from_o they_o of_o the_o roman_a in_o some_o of_o the_o same_o point_n wherein_o the_o primitive_a christian_n do_v both_o differ_v from_o the_o pagan_a and_o the_o jew_n it_o be_v not_o hard_a to_o demonstrate_v that_o we_o of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n now_o be_v in_o all_o the_o fundamental_a point_n of_o our_o religion_n what_o the_o apostle_n and_o their_o follower_n ever_o be_v nor_o be_v it_o difficult_a to_o prove_v that_o they_o of_o the_o roman_a communion_n now_o be_v in_o several_a matter_n what_o the_o jew_n and_o pagan_n be_v for_o the_o great_a respect_n which_o they_o bear_v to_o their_o write_a tradition_n equal_v their_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d their_o law_n in_o the_o mouth_n to_o that_o in_o the_o book_n even_o this_o together_o with_o the_o vast_a multitude_n of_o their_o ceremony_n and_o such_o ceremony_n as_o do_v render_v the_o service_n of_o god_n rather_o vain_a than_o venerable_a do_v prove_v they_o somewhat_o like_o the_o jew_n only_o whereas_o the_o jewish_a rite_n be_v appoint_v by_o god_n do_v adorn_v his_o worship_n and_o be_v part_n of_o it_o these_o man_n folly_n invent_v by_o themselves_o do_v corrupt_a and_o spoil_v it_o again_o their_o public_a allowance_n of_o fornication_n and_o take_v money_n for_o it_o as_o if_o it_o be_v no_o sin_n their_o adoration_n of_o image_n their_o invocation_n of_o saint_n their_o doctrine_n of_o purgatory_n which_o be_v the_o invention_n of_o plato_n all_o this_o do_v testify_v that_o both_o in_o their_o religion_n and_o in_o their_o manner_n they_o be_v too_o like_o the_o pagan_n the_o truth_n be_v the_o present_a religion_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n be_v a_o mere_a miscellany_n too_o like_o that_o of_o the_o turkish_a alcharon_n as_o have_v in_o it_o something_o of_o the_o pagan_a something_o of_o the_o jew_n and_o something_o of_o the_o christian_a too_o and_o as_o our_o adversary_n do_v thus_o resemble_v both_o jew_n and_o pagan_a in_o some_o matter_n of_o their_o religion_n so_o do_v they_o match_v they_o both_o in_o their_o zealous_a persecution_n of_o all_o such_o as_o do_v oppose_v they_o what_o kind_n of_o usage_n the_o primitive_a christian_n find_v from_o jew_n and_o pagan_n we_o learn_v from_o the_o text_n and_o what_o kind_n of_o treatment_n the_o protestant_a church_n have_v find_v from_o the_o roman_a our_o own_o chronicle_n do_v inform_v we_o and_o that_o man_n of_o the_o same_o principle_n will_v fain_o be_v at_o the_o same_o sport_n again_o we_o do_v not_o need_v a_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n to_o assure_v we_o let_v we_o view_v the_o text_n once_o more_o and_o see_v the_o parallel_n 1._o the_o

will_v count_v you_o as_o publican_n and_o heathen_n even_o the_o worst_a of_o man_n and_o thus_o have_v the_o roman_a jew_n deal_v with_o we_o and_o our_o progenitour_n they_o have_v moral_o drive_v we_o from_o they_o by_o impose_v upon_o we_o such_o condition_n of_o union_n as_o do_v oblige_v we_o to_o break_v either_o with_o god_n or_o them_o and_o when_o the_o governor_n of_o our_o church_n

have_v do_v over_o and_o over_o and_o it_o be_v well_o for_o we_o of_o this_o age_n and_o nation_n that_o they_o can_v yet_o do_v no_o more_o it_o be_v well_o that_o all_o this_o thunder_n of_o so_o
