A81213	The moderator: endeavouring a full composure and quiet settlement of those many differences both in doctrine and discipline, which have so long disturbed the peace and welfare of this common-wealth. Intended (especially at this time) to beget a brotherly love and unity amongst the ministers and people of all the three nations; the Parliament having now appointed a committee for receiving proposals for the propagation of the gospel. Brotherly unity amongst all Christians, especially amongst the ministers of Christ, being in it self so excellent and comely at all times, and (considering the danger and sad consequences of our present divisions) so desirable and necessary at this time: I conceive all overtures and counsels having a true tendency thereunto, worthy the publike light, and do therefore approve the publication of this ensuing discourse.

be_v faithful_a to_o their_o principle_n and_o conscionable_a in_o the_o ministry_n that_o the_o relation_n wherein_o god_n have_v set_v they_o one_o towards_o another_o be_v a_o brotherly_a unity_n

to_o show_v how_o full_a &_o satisfactory_a it_o be_v in_o my_o opinion_n to_o settle_v the_o profession_n and_o practice_n of_o a_o christian_a brotherhood_n between_o they_o offer_v this_o that_o if_o any_o shall_v make_v a_o scruple_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o that_o which_o shall_v be_v assert_v concern_v this_o matter_n in_o brief_a that_o a_o large_a deduction_n and_o demonstration_n in_o

and_o that_o walk_v by_o divide_v principle_n rather_o then_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o unity_n in_o the_o gospel_n of_o peace_n may_v have_v cause_n to_o reflect_v upon_o themselves_o to_o consider_v serious_o of_o the_o error_n of_o their_o way_n and_o shape_v their_o course_n otherwise_o then_o hitherto_o they_o have_v do_v lest_o happy_o they_o be_v find_v guilty_a of_o that_o

of_o this_o kingdom_n have_v attain_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n and_o in_o their_o relation_n to_o christ_n and_o his_o church_n forasmuch_o as_o i_o be_o very_o confident_a that_o the_o

but_o also_o all_o profitable_a matter_n unto_o edification_n therefore_o i_o shall_v assert_v the_o fullness_n and_o satisfactorinesse_n of_o this_o unity_n brief_o in_o a_o few_o proposition_n which_o i_o be_o sure_o do_v contain_v much_o more_o as_o to_o the_o agreement_n in_o doctrinal_n and_o no_o less_o as_o to_o the_o agreement_n in_o their_o relation_n unto_o christ_n and_o his_o church_n then_o be_v requisite_a to_o make_v up_o a_o brotherly_a unity_n first_o then_o it_o be_v undeniable_o evident_a that_o they_o all_o acknowledge_v and_o receive_v the_o same_o holy_a scripture_n of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n to_o be_v the_o only_a word_n of_o god_n outward_o give_v both_o to_o the_o church_n in_o general_a and_o to_o all_o man_n in_o particular_a as_o the_o only_a rule_n of_o faith_n and_o obedience_n which_o in_o itself_o and_o to_o all_o believer_n be_v clear_a and_o sufficient_a for_o the_o attainment_n of_o salvation_n and_o for_o their_o direction_n in_o all_o good_a work_n second_o they_o all_o agree_v that_o in_o doubtful_a place_n of_o scripture_n the_o interpretation_n thereof_o be_v to_o be_v take_v from_o the_o undoubted_a analogy_n that_o be_v the_o proportion_n of_o faith_n which_o be_v in_o other_o clear_a place_n of_o scripture_n and_o from_o the_o right_a analysis_n that_o be_v the_o resolution_n or_o division_n of_o the_o context_n of_o the_o same_o place_n three_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o they_o all_o believe_v unanimous_o that_o in_o these_o holy_a scripture_n be_v reveal_v unto_o we_o that_o there_o be_v three_o bear_a witness_n in_o heaven_n the_o father_n the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o that_o these_o three_o be_v one_o and_o the_o only_a true_a and_o live_a god_n of_o who_o the_o true_a knowledge_n be_v life_n eternal_a four_o they_o all_o agree_v to_o profess_v and_o teach_v that_o we_o have_v hope_n to_o be_v justify_v and_o save_v by_o faith_n only_o in_o god_n through_o jesus_n christ_n alone_o who_o according_a to_o the_o scripture_n be_v the_o messiah_n promise_v to_o the_o father_n and_o send_v into_o the_o world_n and_o who_o be_v the_o only_o beget_v son_n of_o

our_o punishment_n and_o pay_v the_o ransom_n for_o our_o sin_n to_o satisfy_v god_n justice_n and_o do_v still_o make_v intercession_n for_o we_o in_o heaven_n five_o they_o all_o agree_v full_o in_o this_o that_o there_o have_v be_v always_o that_o now_o there_o be_v and_o ever_o shall_v be_v unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n among_o man_n a_o true_a church_n wherein_o god_n be_v worship_v
