A84062 The nullity of church-censures: or A dispute written by that illustrious philosopher, expert physician, and pious divine Dr Thomas Erastus, publick professor in the University of Heidelbertge, and Basil. Wherein is proved by the holy Scriptures, and sound reason; that excommunication, and church-senates or members, exercising the same, are not of divine institution; but a meere humane invention. Erastus, Thomas, 1542-1583. 1659 (1659) Wing E3217; Thomason E1783_2; ESTC R209663 63,863 128

a_o humane_a invention_n the_o i._o position_n the_o word_n excommunication_n seem_v to_o be_v take_v out_o of_o the_o ten_o chapter_n of_o the_o 1_o corinthian_n and_o to_o signify_v a_o removal_n from_o that_o commiunion_n which_o in_o that_o place_n be_v call_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o indeed_o at_o this_o time_n excommunication_n be_v define_v by_o almost_o all_o to_o be_v a_o exclusion_n from_o the_o fellowship_n and_o communion_n of_o believer_n ii_o there_o be_v a_o twofold_a fellowship_n of_o believer_n the_o one_o be_v internal_a and_o spiritual_a the_o other_o external_a or_o visible_a and_o politic_a the_o three_o sort_n of_o which_o some_o of_o the_o late_a romish-catholicks_a do_v mention_n be_v neither_o fit_o feign_v nor_o belong_v at_o all_o to_o our_o present_a purpose_n iii_o and_o the_o difference_n betwixt_o these_o two_o be_v so_o great_a that_o he_o which_o be_v comprehend_v within_o either_o of_o they_o be_v not_o likewise_o necessary_o include_v in_o the_o other_o for_o as_o that_o man_n may_v be_v a_o member_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v unjust_o thrust_v out_o of_o a_o visible_a congregation_n or_o be_v compel_v to_o live_v and_o lurk_v among_o infidel_n so_o all_o they_o that_o be_v of_o a_o visible_a congregation_n be_v not_o also_o the_o lively_a member_n of_o christ_n whence_o it_o follow_v that_o these_o matter_n may_v be_v different_a which_o tie_v we_o to_o the_o one_o and_o not_o to_o the_o other_o and_o which_o divide_v we_o from_o the_o one_o and_o not_o from_o the_o other_o iv_o and_o indeed_o we_o be_v make_v member_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v we_o be_v join_v to_o the_o internal_a and_o spiritual_a society_n of_o christ_n and_o of_o the_o faithful_a by_o faith_n alone_o which_o work_v in_o charity_n and_o we_o fall_v from_o this_o fellowship_n only_o by_o infidelity_n therefore_o none_o can_v ingraff_n we_o in_o or_o lop_v we_o off_o from_o this_o except_o only_o he_o that_o can_v give_v we_o live_v faith_n and_o can_v take_v again_o the_o same_o from_o we_o v._o but_o we_o be_v make_v consort_n of_o the_o external_a and_o visible_a church_n by_o the_o profession_n of_o the_o same_o faith_n by_o the_o consent_n we_o give_v to_o the_o same_o doctrine_n and_o by_o the_o use_n of_o the_o same_o sacrament_n in_o whatsoever_o person_n these_o three_o be_v find_v he_o be_v so_o long_o as_o they_o be_v find_v in_o he_o account_v for_o a_o member_n of_o the_o external_a congregation_n of_o believer_n although_o he_o never_o attain_v to_o the_o inward_a communion_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o mind_n vi_o therefore_o he_o that_o be_v throw_v out_o of_o the_o external_a communion_n of_o the_o church_n that_o be_v he_o that_o be_v excommunicate_v be_v debar_v either_o of_o all_o these_o three_o or_o of_o two_o of_o they_o or_o only_o of_o one_o but_o not_o any_o aught_o to_o be_v debar_v of_o the_o two_o former_a that_o be_v from_o profess_v of_o the_o faith_n and_o approve_v the_o doctrine_n under_o which_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n or_o doctrine_n be_v comprehend_v of_o christian_n but_o rather_o all_o man_n be_v to_o be_v invite_v and_o by_o all_o mean_v possible_a be_v to_o be_v induce_v thereto_o wherefore_o it_o remain_v that_o he_o that_o be_v excommunicate_v be_v debar_v from_o the_o sole_a of_o the_o foresay_a three_o participation_n of_o the_o sacrament_n we_o will_v consider_v afterward_o whither_o the_o denial_n of_o private_a converse_n do_v inseparable_o adhere_v unto_o this_o or_o may_v be_v separate_a therefrom_o but_o this_o be_v certain_a that_o not_o any_o other_o punishment_n belong_v to_o the_o essence_n of_o excommunication_n for_o the_o same_o may_v be_v inflict_v upon_o person_n that_o be_v not_o excommunicate_a and_o may_v not_o be_v inflict_v upon_o the_o excommunicate_a vii_o therefore_o roman_n catholic_n have_v not_o right_o beside_o this_o excommunication_n which_o they_o call_v the_o lesser_a and_o have_v most_o proper_o define_v it_o to_o be_v only_o a_o denial_n of_o the_o sacrnment_n add_v moreover_o a_o other_o which_o they_o term_v the_o great_a excommunication_n and_o anathema_n and_o have_v against_o the_o clear_a sense_n of_o scripture_n define_v it_o to_o be_v a_o interdiction_n of_o church_n private_a commerce_n and_o all_o other_o lawful_a converse_n because_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o 1_o corinth_n 14._o open_o show_v that_o neither_o the_o heathen_a nor_o any_o other_o person_n whatsoever_o be_v forbid_v from_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o divine_a word_n from_o the_o readins_n thanksgiving_n and_o prayer_n of_o the_o christian_n viii_o it_o appear_v from_o what_o have_v be_v say_v that_o excommunication_n be_v nothing_o else_o then_o a_o solemn_a and_o public_a interdiction_n of_o the_o sacrament_n and_o chief_o of_o the_o lord_n supper_n which_o the_o apostle_n especial_o call_v a_o communion_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d as_o be_v say_v in_o the_o

a_o question_n whither_o any_o man_n for_o commit_v of_o a_o sin_n or_o live_v in_o filthiness_n shall_v be_v remove_v from_o the_o use_n and_o participation_n of_o the_o sacrament_n he_o be_v desirous_a to_o receive_v the_o same_o with_o other_o christian_n the_o question_n here_o be_v move_v concern_v he_o that_o profess_v the_o same_o faith_n with_o we_o that_o have_v enter_v the_o same_o church_n by_o baptism_n and_o do_v not_o dissent_v therefrom_o in_o doctrine_n as_o we_o lay_v it_o down_o in_o the_o five_o but_o err_v only_o in_o life_n and_o manner_n this_o then_o be_v demand_v whither_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n there_o be_v extant_a either_o any_o precept_n or_o example_n whereby_o it_o be_v command_v or_o teach_v that_o such_o shall_v be_v remove_v from_o the_o sacrament_n x._o our_o answer_n be_v that_o there_o be_v not_o any_o such_o extant_a but_o rather_o that_o contrary_a both_o example_n and_o precept_n be_v to_o be_v find_v every_o where_n in_o

shall_v neglect_v the_o celebration_n of_o the_o passover_n viz._n he_o that_o neither_o travel_v nor_o be_v unclean_a wherefore_o god_n have_v will_v and_o command_v all_o the_o circumcise_a to_o

there_o be_v diverse_a sacrifice_n command_v for_o diverse_a sin_n whither_o they_o be_v commit_v by_o ignorance_n or_o error_n or_o willing_o and_o wilful_o by_o which_o these_o sin_n shall_v be_v
