rubbish_n which_o have_v their_o use_n not_o so_o in_o the_o spiritual_a all_o thing_n there_o be_v homogeneal_a and_o square_a and_o live_a stone_n etc._n etc._n 4._o those_o that_o he_o account_v rough_a and_o unsquared_a be_v in_o some_o conformity_n though_o not_o so_o polish_v as_o other_o 5._o the_o best_a stone_n be_v not_o to_o be_v take_v from_o the_o rest_n to_o make_v up_o a_o build_n by_o themselves_o as_o in_o separate_a congregation_n 6._o let_v he_o show_v any_o such_o example_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n where_o when_o there_o be_v a_o mixture_n of_o holy_a and_o profane_a as_o in_o corinth_n 1_o cor._n 11.21_o the_o apostle_n gather_v out_o the_o holy_a part_n 7._o that_o of_o axe_n and_o hammer_n have_v a_o mysterious_a truth_n in_o it_o but_o not_o to_o his_o purpose_n viz._n that_o the_o spiritual_a building_n be_v build_v of_o the_o soft_a and_o secret_a whisper_n and_o motion_n of_o the_o spirit_n reply_n to_o that_o of_o the_o similitude_n i_o full_o agree_v with_o you_o they_o illustrate_v better_a than_o they_o prove_v to_o that_o of_o not_o carry_v a_o conformity_n betwixt_o material_n and_o spiritual_n too_o high_a i_o agree_v with_o you_o in_o that_o too_o yet_o not_o so_o full_o for_o jesus_n christ_n the_o great_a prophet_n of_o the_o gospel_n preach_v the_o glory_n of_o the_o kingdom_n in_o material_a comparison_n in_o salt_n water_n leaven_n mustard_n seed_n sower_n husbandman_n vine_n vineyard_n etc._n etc._n to_o that_o of_o spiritual_a building_n which_o you_o say_v be_v to_o be_v make_v up_o only_o of_o square_a live_a stone_n i_o agree_v with_o you_o and_o here_o the_o controversy_n may_v be_v end_v if_o your_o temple_n shall_v be_v of_o live_a stone_n the_o controversy_n be_v grant_v but_o because_o i_o will_v not_o seem_v to_o mistake_v you_o i_o believe_v the_o spiritual_a building_n you_o mean_v and_o i_o be_v not_o the_o same_o here_o you_o mean_v as_o it_o appear_v the_o invisible_a spiritual_a or_o church_n mystical_a and_o yet_o there_o all_o be_v not_o so_o homogeneal_a and_o of_o the_o same_o kind_n neither_o the_o head_n of_o the_o body_n be_v both_o god_n and_o man_n and_o one_o member_n like_o one_o star_n differ_v from_o another_o in_o glory_n but_o we_o be_v speak_v of_o the_o spiritual_a build_n or_o church_n here_o which_o be_v the_o image_n of_o the_o church_n above_o and_o as_o that_o be_v of_o true_a real_a essential_o spiritual_a live_a stone_n so_o the_o church_n below_o be_v to_o consist_v at_o least_o of_o such_o as_o visible_o and_o formal_o appear_v so_o and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n call_v they_o in_o his_o epistle_n saint_n and_o call_v to_o be_v saint_n and_o to_o that_o of_o your_o piece_n of_o rubbish_n in_o the_o material_a build_n it_o be_v true_a but_o what_o be_v that_o to_o solomon_n temple_n which_o my_o comparision_n drive_v up_o to_o how_o much_o rubbish_n can_v you_o prove_v in_o that_o type_n nay_o square_a stone_n pure_a cedar_n gold_n etc._n etc._n to_o figure_v out_o the_o gospel-building_n or_o temple_n as_o in_o heb._n 9_o so_o as_o your_o rubbish_n be_v only_o in_o your_o own_o allusion_n not_o in_o i_o to_o that_o of_o your_o unpolished_a stone_n in_o your_o parish_n which_o may_v fit_v the_o temple_n now_o i_o answer_v it_o must_v be_v then_o only_o such_o a_o build_n as_o the_o material_a one_o you_o speak_v on_o which_o be_v make_v up_o of_o rubbish_n and_o break_a piece_n and_o if_o that_o be_v according_a to_o christ_n pattern_n let_v these_o scripture_n in_o the_o margin_n 22·_fw-la with_o many_o more_o determine_v and_o for_o their_o submit_n in_o deed_n there_o be_v a_o national_a blind_a traditional_a obedience_n in_o they_o i_o can_v call_v it_o gospel-submission_n etc._n to_o that_o of_o the_o best_a stone_n not_o to_o be_v take_v out_o to_o make_v up_o a_o building_n i_o answer_v i_o be_o sure_a we_o be_v to_o take_v in_o no_o ill_a unhewn_a unpolished_a and_o the_o scripture_n caution_n and_o practice_n be_v clear_a etc._n etc._n then_o judge_v you_o what_o the_o stone_n must_v be_v nor_o do_v we_o so_o pick_v and_o choose_v as_o if_o all_o stone_n be_v to_o be_v square_a alike_o or_o equal_o polish_v that_o be_v not_o in_o any_o material_a building_n though_o we_o will_v take_v in_o no_o rubbish_n yet_o we_o take_v in_o stone_n different_o square_v as_o in_o the_o body_n one_o member_n differ_v from_o another_o the_o eye_n and_o hand_n and_o foot_n etc._n etc._n and_o member_n less_o honourable_a 1_o cor._n 12._o so_o in_o the_o body_n of_o the_o church_n every_o one_o according_a to_o his_o measure_n and_o as_o every_o one_o have_v receive_v nor_o do_v we_o stand_v so_o for_o the_o first_o polish_n as_o you_o pretend_v you_o make_v as_o if_o we_o set_v up_o such_o degree_n of_o perfection_n as_o be_v only_o the_o degree_n of_o the_o invisibl_a or_o mystical_a body_n when_o it_o be_v mere_o in_o the_o degree_n of_o visible_a gospel-perfection_n by_o this_o you_o will_v make_v the_o carnal_a to_o abhor_v and_o the_o weak_a to_o stumble_v and_o be_v offend_v as_o if_o the_o door_n of_o our_o church_n be_v not_o open_a for_o any_o such_o who_o you_o imply_v be_v of_o a_o temper_n mere_o spiritual_a and_o of_o a_o size_n of_o our_o own_o not_o the_o scripture_n let_v the_o door_n of_o our_o church_n be_v as_o straight_o as_o you_o imply_v i_o be_o sure_a your_o door_n be_v set_v open_a or_o rather_o cast_v off_o the_o hinge_n but_o a_o pure_a gospel-entrance_n be_v neither_o too_o wide_a nor_o too_o narrow_a we_o know_v there_o be_v smoke_a flax_n and_o bruise_a reed_n measure_n of_o grace_n if_o they_o can_v willing_o submit_v to_o jesus_n christ_n their_o lawgiver_n and_o walk_v as_o member_n of_o the_o body_n there_o they_o may_v receive_v polish_n and_o have_v honour_n and_o build_v up_o and_o many_o other_o degree_n of_o perfection_n which_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n obtain_v when_o they_o be_v in_o fellowship_n with_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n to_o that_o of_o your_o challenge_n that_o i_o shall_v show_v any_o such_o example_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n of_o take_v out_o the_o best_a when_o there_o be_v a_o mixture_n of_o holy_a and_o profane_a i_o answer_v those_o be_v gospel-churche_n gather_v by_o the_o word_n and_o spirit_n into_o gospel-fellowship_n and_o when_o you_o make_v your_o parish_n to_o appear_v such_o church_n than_o i_o shall_v tell_v you_o more_o till_o then_o i_o suspend_v your_o challenge_n the_o world_n and_o a_o antichristian_a nation_n be_v both_o under_o christ_n fan_n for_o gather_v they_o out_o to_o that_o of_o a_o mysterious_a truth_n you_o speak_v on_o in_o the_o axe_n and_o hammer_n i_o agree_v with_o you_o in_o that_o and_o because_o of_o the_o mystery_n i_o therefore_o quote_v it_o and_o whereas_o you_o sum_v up_o all_o the_o mystery_n into_o the_o soft_a whisper_n and_o motion_n of_o the_o spirit_n you_o can_v hardly_o warrant_v we_o or_o secure_v we_o

how_o the_o gospel-building_n be_v soft_o gather_v and_o make_v up_o by_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n and_o spirit_n and_o not_o with_o axe_n and_o hammer_n tool_n of_o a_o compulsive_a force_v
