and_o no_o duty_n command_v for_o itself_o these_o be_v the_o substantial_a part_n of_o christianity_n and_o zeal_n at_o the_o best_a be_v but_o the_o guard_n of_o it_o and_o it_o be_v very_o

be_v oblige_v to_o promote_v god_n glory_n and_o christian_a religion_n but_o than_o it_o be_v by_o those_o way_n only_o which_o religion_n allow_v the_o apostle_n be_v as_o zealous_a for_o christianity_n as_o any_o and_o advance_v it_o more_o than_o ever_o any_o since_o but_o the_o way_n they_o take_v be_v purity_n and_o peace_n meekness_n and_o suffer_v never_o any_o tumult_n and_o rebellion_n hear_v of_o till_o zeal_n become_v extravagant_a and_o overgrow_a and_o not_o only_o grow_v too_o strong_a for_o but_o swallow_v up_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o virtue_n and_o if_o these_o practice_n be_v warrant_v by_o christianity_n if_o man_n may_v make_v use_n of_o tumultuary_a and_o seditious_a way_n to_o secure_v or_o set_v up_o religion_n what_o a_o woeful_a condition_n will_v a_o christian_a prince_n be_v in_o who_o kingdom_n be_v divide_v into_o faction_n and_o where_o be_v several_a party_n of_o differ_v persuasion_n in_o religion_n for_o all_o think_v themselves_o in_o the_o right_n and_o all_o other_o in_o the_o wrong_n and_o common_o call_v the_o contrary_a opinion_n superstition_n idolatry_n and_o antichristianism_n now_o if_o all_o these_o think_v their_o zeal_n for_o their_o respective_a way_n oblige_v they_o to_o all_o possible_a mean_n to_o set_v they_o up_o and_o destroy_v the_o contrary_a and_o if_o they_o be_v lukewarm_a if_o they_o do_v not_o do_v it_o if_o papist_n may_v hire_v ruffian_n to_o pistol_n the_o king_n if_o he_o do_v not_o set_v up_o image_n and_o transubstantiation_n if_o presbyterian_o may_v fight_v against_o he_o if_o he_o do_v not_o pull_v down_o bishop_n and_o place_n in_o their_o stead_n classis_n and_o lay-elders_a if_o independent_o may_v cut_v of_o his_o head_n if_o he_o do_v not_o root_v out_o the_o idolatry_n of_o the_o surplice_n and_o the_o dagon_n of_o the_o common-prayer_n and_o enact_v law_n for_o the_o congregational_a way_n if_o the_o quaker_n may_v deny_v he_o and_o testify_v against_o he_o if_o he_o do_v not_o abolish_v all_o other_o way_n and_o set_v up_o enthusiasm_n and_o new_a light_n in_o this_o case_n what_o can_v a_o king_n do_v it_o be_v impossible_a to_o set_v up_o more_o than_o one_o and_o then_o all_o the_o rest_n be_v to_o be_v troublesome_a and_o vexatious_a to_o become_v his_o enemy_n and_o to_o pursue_v he_o as_o a_o adversary_n to_o truth_n i_o say_v therefore_o that_o if_o christianity_n do_v warrant_v such_o thing_n it_o will_v be_v look_v upon_o as_o the_o makebate_n of_o the_o world_n it_o will_v be_v esteem_v what_o its_o enemy_n represent_v it_o a_o most_o pestilent_a heresy_n and_o all_o governor_n will_v use_v their_o utmost_a to_o root_n it_o out_o of_o their_o kingdom_n as_o utter_o inconsistent_a with_o the_o quiet_a and_o peace_n of_o they_o whereas_o in_o truth_n there_o be_v nothing_o more_o the_o interest_n of_o governor_n than_o to_o settle_v christianity_n among_o the_o people_n because_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o governable_a than_o a_o good_a christian_a nothing_o more_o orderly_a and_o peaceable_a than_o the_o measure_n of_o religion_n but_o then_o it_o be_v religion_n not_o act_v by_o furious_a and_o

next_o sit_v use_v all_o mean_n of_o trial_n to_o know_v if_o there_o be_v any_o more_o of_o that_o mind_n leave_v in_o the_o country_n and_o he_o say_v 265._o apol._n king_n james_n be_v work_n
