it_o may_v be_v overbear_v at_o a_o push_n but_o will_v recover_v again_o and_o vanquish_v all_o the_o dark_a part_n of_o man_n o_o that_o we_o have_v such_o impartial_a and_o unbyased_a spirit_n as_o to_o receive_v all_o truth_n in_o the_o love_n of_o it_o let_v i_o entreat_v my_o reader_n to_o weigh_v thing_n meet_v with_o in_o this_o controversy_n deliberate_o and_o then_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o of_o whatsoever_o judgement_n he_o be_v he_o will_v confess_v my_o principle_n and_o argument_n be_v rational_a and_o much_o the_o drift_n and_o scope_n of_o plain_a scripture_n and_o if_o he_o

distinct_a from_o excommunication_n as_o it_o be_v state_v by_o mr._n collins_n indeed_o he_o please_v himself_o with_o tell_v his_o reader_n my_o principle_n be_v both_o large_a and_o rot_a but_o if_o he_o think_v to_o go_v but_o a_o inch_n narrow_a he_o will_v find_v it_o a_o most_o difficult_a task_n to_o free_v himself_o of_o that_o charge_n lay_v against_o the_o pharisee_n the_o make_v void_a the_o commandment_n of_o god_n by_o their_o tradition_n he_o can_v go_v a_o jot_n narrow_a but_o he_o must_v uncovenant_v undisciple_n and_o unduty_n those_o which_o he_o call_v church_n member_n the_o do_v of_o which_o pluck_v up_o all_o that_o the_o church_n stand_v upon_o and_o level_v christian_n not_o excommunicate_a with_o the_o pagan_a world_n in_o point_n of_o right_n and_o actual_a duty_n of_o receive_v this_o be_v so_o irrational_a that_o it_o stand_v mr._n collins_n upon_o to_o do_v his_o utmost_a to_o give_v some_o satisfaction_n therein_o which_o if_o he_o do_v he_o must_v make_v good_a from_o the_o scripture_n those_o thing_n which_o he_o so_o often_o beg_v as_o 1._o that_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v strong_a meat_n only_o 2._o a_o seal_n to_o justify_v faith_n only_o 3_o and_o that_o every_o unregenerate_a person_n in_o the_o church_n that_o receive_v eat_v judgement_n to_o himself_o more_o than_o in_o any_o other_o ordinance_n of_o word_n and_o prayer_n he_o do_v in_o each_o what_o he_o can_v to_o decline_v and_o avoid_v profaneness_n 4._o that_o a_o church-member_n of_o year_n under_o toleration_n of_o the_o church_n be_v no_o believer_n or_o disciple_n under_o actual_a duty_n as_o a_o christian_a 5._o that_o to_o the_o different_a state_n of_o the_o church_n as_o consist_v of_o regenerate_a and_o unregenerate_a be_v under_o different_a rule_n and_o duty_n as_o to_o public_a worship_n 6._o that_o more_o knowledge_n and_o holiness_n be_v require_v to_o the_o lord_n supper_n then_o to_o baptism_n in_o person_n of_o year_n 7._o he_o must_v prove_v suspension_n distinct_a from_o excommunication_n a_o church_n censure_n and_o for_o what_o sin_n 8._o that_o some_o baptize_v of_o year_n mention_v in_o the_o scripture_n have_v be_v deny_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o supper_n for_o ignorance_n or_o for_o not_o have_v fruit_n of_o holiness_n answerable_a to_o the_o christian_a profession_n and_o yet_o allow_v the_o liberty_n of_o all_o other_o ordinance_n in_o the_o church_n as_o member_n 9_o he_o must_v prove_v a_o pastoral_n or_o church_n trial_n by_o examination_n of_o church-member_n fitness_n or_o unfitnesse_n necessary_a to_o admit_v to_o the_o sacrament_n and_o more_o such_o like_a thing_n before_o he_o can_v just_o debar_v any_o from_o the_o sacrament_n more_o than_o from_o the_o rest_n of_o church_n privilege_n and_o duty_n if_o he_o can_v make_v good_a all_o or_o any_o of_o these_o thing_n by_o the_o scripture_n so_o as_o to_o take_v off_o what_o we_o have_v except_v against_o they_o then_o he_o may_v do_v something_o towards_o give_v satisfaction_n in_o this_o controversy_n otherwise_o in_o plain_a term_n i_o will_v have_v he_o to_o sit_v still_o and_o let_v other_o who_o may_v think_v to_o do_v somewhat_o in_o order_n to_o it_o put_v forth_o their_o strength_n for_o i_o be_o willing_a my_o ground_n and_o principle_n shall_v be_v try_v to_o the_o utmost_a i_o have_v rather_o be_v put_v to_o shame_v a_o thousand_o time_n then_o upon_o mistake_n in_o any_o thing_n i_o shall_v dissent_v from_o godly_a man_n and_o draw_v any_o into_o error_n but_o yet_o i_o will_v have_v you_o to_o know_v that_o these_o ground_n and_o principle_n on_o which_o my_o judgement_n be_v build_v have_v be_v so_o long_o receive_v and_o chew_v upon_o and_o examine_v and_o try_v by_o general_a rule_n of_o scripture_n and_o reason_n that_o i_o shall_v not_o easy_o be_v remove_v for_o i_o dare_v bold_o say_v the_o substance_n of_o what_o i_o write_v i_o receive_v not_o from_o erastus_n
