your_o strange_a wild_a art_n of_o multiply_a question_n upon_o question_n or_o like_o another_o hydra_n what_o ever_o the_o hercules_n be_v make_v three_o head_n spring_v up_o in_o the_o place_n

to_o show_v how_o much_o you_o be_v mistake_v i_o will_v give_v you_o a_o brief_a but_o satisfactory_a account_n my_o text_n stand_v upon_o record_n isa._n 40._o 25._o the_o doctrine_n i_o raise_v from_o the_o word_n be_v as_o follow_v doct._n there_o be_v no_o creature_n in_o heaven_n or_o earth_n like_o god_n in_o all_o thing_n or_o equal_a to_o god_n in_o any_o thing_n the_o first_o corollary_n i_o deduce_v from_o thence_o when_o i_o come_v to_o make_v application_n be_v brief_o this_o that_o no_o picture_n can_v be_v make_v of_o god_n because_o there_o be_v nothing_o like_o he_o in_o heaven_n or_o earth_n all_o nation_n be_v less_o than_o vanity_n in_o comparison_n of_o god_n to_o who_o then_o will_v you_o liken_v god_n or_o what_o likeness_n will_v you_o compare_v unto_o he_o isay._n 40._o 17._o 18._o the_o prophet_n urge_v this_o argument_n against_o all_o manner_n of_o image_n which_o be_v make_v to_o represent_v god_n who_o sit_v upon_o the_o circle_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o stretch_v out_o the_o heaven_n from_o the_o 19_o v_o of_o the_o same_o chap._n to_o the_o 23._o ver_fw-la and_o he_o enforce_v this_o argument_n vers_n 21._o have_v you_o not_o know_v have_v you_o not_o understand_v etc._n etc._n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v you_o be_v ignorant_a sot_n irrational_a and_o inconsiderate_a man_n if_o you_o apprehend_v not_o the_o strength_n of_o this_o argument_n now_o sir_n be_v please_v to_o produce_v your_o strong_a reason_n and_o overthrow_n if_o you_o can_v the_o doctrine_n or_o the_o corollary_n your_o intelligencer_n be_v if_o not_o a_o false_a prophet_n yet_o a_o false_a historian_n when_o he_o tell_v you_o that_o i_o accuse_v you_o of_o make_v image_n equal_a with_o god_n sir_n i_o say_v that_o image_n be_v not_o like_a unto_o god_n and_o thereupon_o wonder_v that_o you_o take_v upon_o you_o to_o plead_v for_o the_o retain_v of_o those_o image_n which_o have_v be_v too_o often_o turn_v into_o idol_n not_o by_o the_o piety_n but_o superstition_n of_o former_a time_n you_o say_v that_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n there_o shall_v be_v no_o sun_n in_o the_o firmament_n whence_o i_o collect_v that_o you_o will_v be_v force_v to_o maintain_v that_o image_n be_v as_o necessary_a in_o the_o church_n as_o the_o sun_n in_o heaven_n be_v please_v to_o read_v the_o 22._o page_n of_o the_o false_a prophet_n moreover_o you_o plead_v for_o cope_n and_o for_o those_o part_n of_o the_o common-prayer_n book_n which_o be_v borrow_v from_o rome_n pag._n 21_o 22._o the_o uisitor_n will_v ere_o long_o inquire_v whether_o there_o have_v not_o be_v a_o superstitious_a use_n of_o cope_n at_o christ-church_n and_o therefore_o i_o do_v not_o make_v any_o such_o enquiry_n in_o my_o sermon_n but_o as_o a_o friend_n i_o give_v you_o and_o your_o adherent_n timely_a notice_n of_o it_o because_o i_o believe_v you_o have_v need_v study_n for_o a_o answer_n you_o maintain_v that_o some_o thing_n in_o the_o excellency_n and_o height_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christian_a religion_n

the_o man_n in_o aristotle_n who_o drive_v his_o shadow_n before_o he_o you_o first_o frame_v a_o man_n of_o air_n and_o then_o cry_v he_o fly_v from_o you_o but_o if_o this_o be_v to_o conquer_v one_o of_o our_o gift_a man_n who_o be_v at_o all_o no_o scholar_n can_v as_o well_o triumph_v over_o man_n of_o air_n and_o shadow_n as_o yourself_o to_o let_v you_o see_v therefore_o that_o i_o be_o one_o of_o those_o who_o desire_v not_o to_o fight_v duel_n with_o naked_a unarmed_a man_n nor_o to_o meet_v any_o in_o the_o field_n before_o we_o have_v agree_v upon_o the_o just_a length_n of_o our_o weapon_n if_o your_o patience_n will_v hold_v out_o so_o long_o who_o come_v disinterested_n hither_o this_o second_o part_n of_o this_o sermon_n shall_v be_v spend_v in_o the_o pursuit_n of_o that_o which_o master_n deane_n of_o christchurch_n just_a now_o very_o seasonable_o note_v as_o a_o defect_n in_o our_o present_a way_n of_o argue_v and_o dispute_v which_o be_v that_o the_o ground_n be_v not_o examine_v upon_o which_o the_o present_a separation_n of_o these_o time_n do_v build_v themselves_o these_o ground_n therefore_o i_o shall_v now_o in_o the_o next_o place_n call_v to_o some_o reckon_n and_o account_n and_o in_o the_o do_n of_o this_o i_o will_v hang_v up_o a_o pair_n of_o scale_n before_o you_o you_o shall_v see_v their_o argument_n place_v in_o one_o scale_n and_o my_o answer_n in_o the_o other_o and_o because_o no_o moderator_n sit_v in_o the_o chair_n to_o judge_v which_o be_v a_o thing_n foresee_v by_o i_o but_o can_v not_o well_o be_v compass_v i_o shall_v make_v you_o the_o judge_n who_o hear_v i_o this_o day_n and_o because_o the_o rudeness_n and_o ill-language_n of_o those_o who_o have_v disturb_v i_o in_o this_o pulpit_n have_v make_v i_o stand_v before_o you_o here_o like_o a_o man_n arraign_v for_o error_n i_o will_v free_o cast_v myself_o upon_o god_n and_o you_o the_o country_n thus_o then_o i_o shall_v proceed_v here_o as_o i_o say_v before_o may_v some_o of_o the_o separate_a party_n say_v to_o i_o how_o do_v the_o former_a part_n of_o your_o sermon_n concern_v we_o we_o separate_v it_o be_v true_a but_o not_o on_o those_o false_a ground_n which_o you_o have_v all_o this_o while_n describe_v we_o grant_v indeed_o that_o if_o we_o break_v communion_n with_o you_o out_o of_o faction_n or_o self-interest_n or_o pride_n or_o desire_v of_o gain_n or_o mere_a love_n of_o separation_n you_o may_v well_o call_v we_o schismatic_n and_o we_o shall_v well_o deserve_v that_o name_n but_o the_o ground_n on_o which_o we_o separate_v from_o you_o be_v because_o you_o be_v not_o fit_a to_o be_v assemble_v with_o you_o be_v sinner_n wicked_a lewd_a profane_a notorious_a sinner_n the_o place_n where_o you_o meet_v breathe_v nothing_o but_o infection_n your_o teacher_n preach_v false_a doctrine_n and_o your_o people_n practice_n lie_v in_o a_o word_n we_o can_v with_o the_o safety_n of_o our_o conscience_n frequent_v your_o congregation_n since_o to_o appear_v there_o will_v be_v a_o enterprise_n as_o dangerous_a as_o if_o we_o shall_v make_v visit_n to_o a_o pest-house_n and_o there_o hope_v to_o escape_v the_o plague_n this_o you_o will_v say_v good_a people_n be_v very_o hard_a language_n and_o how_o think_v you_o do_v they_o prove_v it_o why_o as_o they_o think_v by_o two_o clear_a place_n of_o the_o scripture_n which_o no_o man_n can_v oppose_v and_o not_o make_v war_n with_o heaven_n two_o place_n of_o scripture_n i_o say_v have_v be_v produce_v and_o quote_v to_o i_o like_o samson_n and_o achilles_n with_o invincible_a lance_n in_o their_o hand_n place_n which_o do_v not_o only_o allow_v but_o command_v a_o separation_n nay_o they_o command_v it_o so_o full_o that_o if_o they_o shall_v not_o separate_v or_o forsake_v our_o congregation_n they_o say_v they_o shall_v sin_v great_o and_o disobey_v the_o scripture_n and_o what_o be_v these_o two_o place_n the_o first_o you_o shall_v find_v set_v down_o in_o the_o 5._o last_o verse_n of_o the_o 6._o chapter_n of_o the_o second_o epistle_n of_o s._n paul_n to_o the_o corinthian_n where_o the_o word_n run_v thus_o be_v you_o

be_v to_o understand_v that_o when_o s._n paul_n write_v that_o epistle_n the_o city_n of_o corinth_n be_v not_o whole_o convert_v to_o the_o faith_n but_o be_v divide_v in_o religion_n some_o be_v

that_o dwell_v together_o in_o the_o same_o city_n certain_a neighbourly_a civillity_n and_o act_n of_o kindness_n pass_v between_o they_o as_o for_o example_n when_o a_o heathen_a or_o unbeliever_n offer_v a_o sacrifice_n to_o his_o idol_n it_o be_v usual_a for_o old_a acquaintance_n sake_n to_o invite_v his_o christian_a friend_n to_o be_v guest_n to_o his_o sacrifice_n and_o to_o eat_v of_o his_o meat_n which_o be_v offer_v to_o his_o idol_n as_o you_o may_v read_v 1_o cor._n 10._o 27_o 28._o and_o the_o place_n where_o the_o sacrifice_n be_v eat_v and_o where_o the_o feast_n be_v make_v be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n in_o the_o temple_n of_o the_o idol_n as_o you_o may_v read_v 1_o cor._n 8._o 10._o now_o this_o mingle_n of_o religion_n this_o meeting_n of_o christian_n with_o heathen_n at_o a_o heathen_a feast_n nay_o at_o a_o feast_n where_o the_o meat_n be_v first_o offer_v to_o a_o idol_n nay_o in_o that_o idol_n be_v offer_v to_o the_o devil_n as_o you_o may_v read_v 1_o cor._n 10._o 20._o nay_o this_o meeting_n of_o christian_n with_o heathen_n at_o a_o idol_n sacrifice_n and_o their_o eat_n with_o they_o of_o that_o sacrifice_n in_o the_o very_a temple_n of_o
