and_o a_o upright_a life_n call_v they_o saint_n brethren_z his_o child_n and_o the_o church_n of_o god_n 220._o chilling_n p._n 220._o and_o so_o the_o seven_o famous_a church_n of_o asia_n be_v

we_o ought_v to_o love_v they_o and_o be_v oblige_v to_o live_v in_o peace_n with_o they_o and_o to_o suffer_v they_o unwronged_a to_o live_v peaceable_o with_o we_o and_o not_o to_o do_v as_o in_o the_o madness_n of_o their_o misguide_a zeal_n too_o too_o many_o man_n be_v bend_v on_o either_o side_n to_o hate_v persecute_v rob_v and_o murder_v one_o another_o because_o they_o will_v not_o be_v of_o the_o same_o opinion_n as_o we_o be_v or_o they_o be_v of_o which_o be_v a_o thing_n impossible_a in_o nature_n because_o faith_n can_v be_v compel_v either_o to_o believe_v what_o i_o listen_v not_o or_o not_o to_o believe_v what_o i_o listen_v as_o lactantius_n say_v and_o it_o be_v inconsistent_a with_o the_o very_a principle_n of_o our_o profession_n that_o we_o shall_v rob_v man_n and_o take_v away_o their_o estates●s_n because_o they_o will_v not_o profess_v the_o same_o faith_n and_o religion_n that_o we_o do_v for_o compulsion_n may_v make_v man_n hypocrite_n but_o not_o saint_n and_o you_o know_v the_o chief_a point_n of_o our_o christian_a religion_n be_v faith_n hope_n and_o charity_n and_o the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o the_o great_a of_o these_o be_v charity_n because_o our_o love_n and_o our_o charity_n as_o they_o be_v of_o a_o far_o great_a perpetuity_n so_o they_o shall_v be_v of_o a_o far_o great_a latitude_n and_o extent_n than_o our_o faith_n and_o hope_n can_v be_v and_o therefore_o religion_n what_o we_o be_v to_o hate_v and_o what_o to_o love_v in_o all_o sectary_n and_o professor_n of_o religion_n though_o my_o knowledge_n and_o my_o judgement_n will_v not_o suffer_v i_o to_o be_v of_o the_o same_o faith_n either_o with_o the_o papist_n puritan_n anabaptist_n or_o the_o like_a erroneous_a sectary_n but_o persuade_v i_o to_o hate_v and_o detest_v both_o their_o position_n and_o their_o practice_n yet_o my_o religion_n teach_v i_o to_o love_v their_o person_n and_o in_o my_o conversation_n to_o live_v in_o peace_n and_o to_o join_v the_o right_a hand_n of_o christianity_n with_o they_o and_o rather_o desire_v to_o exceed_v they_o in_o all_o the_o office_n of_o love_n than_o any_o way_n to_o show_v the_o least_o hatred_n or_o do_v the_o least_o injury_n to_o any_o one_o of_o they_o all_o and_o withal_o to_o pray_v for_o they_o and_o to_o use_v all_o love_a mean_n to_o bring_v they_o to_o repentance_n for_o their_o error_n and_o to_o embrace_v the_o truth_n this_o which_o i_o profess_v be_v the_o ready_a way_n to_o win_v they_o for_o as_o the_o scripture_n say_v 10.12_o prov._n 10.12_o hatred_n stir_v up_o strife_n but_o love_n cover_v a_o multitude_n of_o sin_n and_o be_v the_o ready_a way_n to_o convert_v the_o sinner_n and_o i_o think_v if_o man_n do_v this_o and_o not_o break_v the_o bond_n of_o love_n nor_o straighten_v the_o extent_n of_o this_o brotherhood_n they_o may_v the_o soon_o be_v reduce_v to_o embrace_v the_o same_o truth_n and_o to_o be_v unite_v in_o the_o same_o faith_n because_o true_a love_n be_v the_o most_o attractive_a thing_n in_o the_o world_n and_o the_o want_n of_o love_n be_v the_o cause_n that_o so_o much_o wickedness_n do_v abound_v even_o as_o our_o saviour_n testify_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v most_o requisite_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v very_a earnest_n and_o very_o often_o to_o insist_v upon_o these_o point_n and_o to_o urge_v these_o duty_n to_o honour_v all_o
