god_n mercy_n be_v great_a and_o he_o will_v be_v pacify_v for_o the_o multitude_n of_o my_o sin_n for_o mercy_n and_o wrath_n be_v with_o he_o he_o be_v mighty_a to_o forgive_v and_o to_o pour_v

literal_o but_o such_o a_o escape_n as_o man_n make_v out_o of_o a_o house_n or_o town_n that_o be_v on_o fire_n especial_o since_o very_o learned_a person_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v

that_o there_o be_v no_o purgatory_n which_o we_o never_o pretend_v but_o only_o that_o this_o text_n do_v not_o prove_v it_o it_o be_v very_o well_o know_v that_o this_o be_v a_o proverbial_a phrase_n use_v not_o only_o in_o scripture_n but_o in_o profane_a author_n to_o signify_v a_o narrow_a escape_n out_o of_o a_o great_a danger_n he_o shall_v be_v save_v yet_o so_o as_o by_o fire_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d out_o of_o the_o fire_n just_o as_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d be_v use_v 1_o pet._n 3.20_o where_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o the_o eight_o person_n of_o noah_n

a_o man_n out_o of_o the_o fire_n be_v a_o common_a proverbial_a speech_n from_o the_o word_n thus_o explain_v the_o observation_n that_o natural_o arise_v be_v this_o that_o man_n may_v hold_v all_o the_o fundamental_o of_o christian_a religion_n and_o yet_o may_v superadd_a other_o thing_n whereby_o they_o may_v great_o endanger_v their_o salvation_n what_o those_o thing_n be_v which_o some_o among_o the_o corinthian_n build_v upon_o the_o foundation_n of_o christianity_n whereby_o they_o endanger_v their_o salvation_n we_o may_v probable_o conjecture_v by_o what_o the_o apostle_n reprove_v in_o this_o epistle_n as_o the_o tolerate_n of_o incestuous_a marriage_n communicate_v in_o idol-feast_n etc._n etc._n and_o especial_o by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o false_a apostle_n who_o at_o that_o time_n do_v so_o much_o disturb_v the_o peace_n of_o most_o christian_a church_n and_o who_o be_v so_o often_o and_o so_o severe_o reflect_v upon_o in_o this_o epistle_n and_o what_o their_o doctrine_n be_v we_o have_v a_o account_n act._n 15._o viz._n that_o they_o impose_v upon_o the_o gentile_a christian_n circumcision_n and_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o jewish_a law_n teach_v that_o unless_o they_o be_v circumcise_v and_o keep_v the_o law_n of_o moses_n they_o can_v not_o be_v save_v so_o that_o they_o do_v not_o only_o build_v these_o doctrine_n upon_o

this_o observation_n i_o shall_v reduce_v my_o discourse_n to_o these_o two_o head_n 1._o i_o shall_v represent_v to_o you_o some_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n which_o have_v be_v build_v upon_o the_o foundation_n of_o christianity_n to_o the_o great_a hazard_n and_o danger_n of_o man_n salvation_n and_o to_o be_v plain_a i_o mean_v particular_o by_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n 2._o i_o shall_v inquire_v whether_o our_o grant_v a_o possibility_n of_o salvation_n though_o with_o great_a hazard_n to_o those_o in_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n and_o their_o deny_v it_o to_o we_o be_v a_o reasonable_a argument_n and_o encouragement_n to_o any_o man_n to_o betake_v himself_o to_o that_o church_n and_o there_o be_v the_o more_o reason_n to_o consider_v these_o thing_n when_o so_o many_o seduce_a spirit_n be_v so_o active_a and_o busy_a to_o pervert_v man_n from_o the_o truth_n and_o when_o we_o see_v every_o day_n so_o many_o and_o their_o religion_n so_o easy_o part_v for_o this_o reason_n these_o two_o consideration_n shall_v be_v the_o subject_n of_o the_o follow_a discourse_n i._n first_o we_o will_v consider_v some_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n which_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v build_v upon_o the_o foundation_n of_o christianity_n to_o the_o great_a hazard_n and_o danger_n of_o man_n salvation_n it_o be_v not_o deny_v by_o the_o most_o judicious_a protestant_n but_o that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v hold_v all_o the_o article_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n which_o be_v necessary_a to_o salvation_n but_o that_o which_o we_o charge_v upon_o they_o as_o a_o just_a ground_n of_o our_o separation_n from_o they_o be_v the_o impose_v of_o new_a doctrine_n and_o practice_n upon_o christian_n as_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n which_o be_v never_o teach_v by_o our_o saviour_n or_o his_o apostle_n and_o which_o be_v either_o direct_o contrary_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christianity_n or_o
