A73049	Englands pvrginge fire Conteyninge two petitions, the one to the Kinges most excellent Majesty, the other to the High Courte of Parliament held at this tyme in England. Shewinge in diverse perticulers, how the Church in England might be ordered, yet more conformably to the Will of God reveiled in his worde then at this day it is. Herewithall is declared, the evell and lamentable effects of our vnable and negligent ministers: and the happy fruict of our learned and painefull pastors. A worke most needefull for theise tymes, as servinge to turne away the wrath and iudgements of God from this lande, through the removinge, (accordinge to the advertisements herein given) such disorders and evells, as for which the wrath of God may be, and is, kindled against this Land, and the church therein.

word_n you_o shall_v find_v a_o comforteable_a show_n of_o godliness_n here_o a_o true_a evidence_n of_o christian_a life_n and_o conversation_n here_o therefore_o be_v indeed_o a_o evidence_n of_o the_o inseazoninge_a and_o habitation_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n both_o in_o pastor_n and_o people_n here_o a_o plain_a evidence_n both_o of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n in_o power_n and_o also_o of_o the_o weakeninge_v if_o not_o castinge_v out_o of_o the_o contrary_a kingdom_n even_o the_o kingdom_n of_o satan_n of_o these_o minister_n and_o parish_n therefore_o i_o rejoice_v and_o for_o your_o gracious_a favour_n towards_o they_o for_o their_o better_a encouragement_n in_o well_o do_v i_o humble_o petition_v your_o sacred_a majesty_n in_o this_o write_n but_o some_o and_o too_o many_o of_o these_o be_v in_o the_o number_n of_o those_o who_o minister_n be_v silence_v and_o who_o people_n be_v reproach_v with_o the_o nick_n name_n of_o puritan_n my_o lord_n and_o king_n i_o petition_v not_o that_o their_o error_n be_v suffer_v but_o this_o i_o petition_n that_o the_o minister_n leave_v their_o error_n and_o the_o people_n also_o forsake_v they_o both_o minister_n and_o people_n may_v find_v you_o gracious_a towards_o they_o by_o restore_v the_o minister_n to_o their_o former_a ministration_n and_o by_o acceptinge_v the_o people_n as_o the_o light_n of_o our_o land_n for_o religion_n there_o be_v no_o garden_n where_o weed_n will_v not_o grow_v neither_o do_v man_n destroy_v the_o garden_n for_o the_o weed_n sake_n but_o rather_o weed_n out_o the_o weed_n and_o preserve_v the_o garden_n still_o we_o may_v not_o conceive_v that_o none_o that_o be_v true_a christian_n and_o have_v the_o spirit_n fall_n into_o any_o error_n for_o peter_n have_v his_o error_n galat._n 2_o 11_o and_o the_o church_n of_o corinth_n &_o galatia_n have_v their_o strayinge_n from_o the_o truth_n when_o yet_o neither_o peter_n be_v silence_v but_o only_o the_o error_n he_o fall_v into_o withstand_v nor_o those_o church_n forsake_v but_o only_o the_o weed_n weed_v out_o and_o it_o be_v true_o a_o hard_a thing_n that_o man_n ministerye_n be_v whole_o suppress_v for_o a_o error_n or_o two_o in_o judgement_n whereas_o rather_o first_o they_o shall_v be_v but_o stay_v from_o preachinge_a such_o error_n and_o afterwards_o upon_o obstinate_a persi_v silence_v but_o seinge_v many_o of_o our_o learned_a and_o painful_a divine_n who_o ministry_n have_v be_v very_o profitable_a in_o this_o church_n of_o england_n be_v whole_o for_o some_o few_o error_n silence_v i_o be_o now_o a_o petitioner_n that_o their_o ministry_n may_v be_v restore_v so_o as_o they_o forsake_v those_o thing_n which_o true_o be_v error_n in_o they_o and_o for_o the_o people_n i_o humble_o pray_v that_o leave_v to_o speak_v against_o lawful_a power_n and_o office_n in_o the_o church_n and_o against_o our_o divine_a service_n &_o leave_v to_o condemn_v god_n people_n in_o lawful_a thing_n they_o may_v be_v relieve_v from_o those_o scandale_n which_o wicked_a man_n cast_v upon_o they_o sure_o dread_a sovereign_n these_o congregation_n where_o silence_v minister_n have_v be_v do_v manifest_o declare_v themselves_o to_o be_v god_n saint_n in_o your_o kingdom_n yea_o i_o have_v observe_v that_o where_o a_o minister_n conformable_a to_o the_o ordinance_n of_o our_o church_n have_v succeed_v in_o the_o place_n of_o a_o silence_a minister_n godliness_n have_v more_o and_o more_o decay_a in_o your_o people_n i_o will_v not_o say_v it_o be_v the_o fault_n of_o their_o conformity_n god_n forbid_v but_o this_o i_o say_v it_o be_v the_o fault_n of_o their_o not_o exercisinge_v like_o pastoral_n duty_n as_o the_o silence_a minister_n exercise_v and_o it_o be_v the_o fault_n of_o our_o bishop_n not_o pressinge_v they_o to_o exercise_v such_o but_o rather_o leave_v they_o to_o a_o prejudicial_a liberty_n in_o life_n and_o conversation_n thus_o have_v i_o my_o most_o gracious_a sovereign_n adventure_v to_o set_v before_o your_o view_n the_o diverse_a disposition_n of_o your_o people_n according_a to_o the_o diverse_o dispose_v minister_n set_v over_o they_o i_o need_v not_o now_o doubt_v of_o your_o majesty_n quick_a apprehension_n and_o discerninge_v where_o in_o your_o kingdom_n the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n most_o prevail_v neither_o yet_o where_o be_v the_o best_a evidencye_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n you_o have_v give_v such_o sign_n of_o your_o excellent_a judgement_n in_o these_o thing_n that_o i_o rather_o rejoice_v thereof_o then_o infourme_v you_o oughts_z at_o all_o true_a it_o be_v that_o it_o be_v not_o rigour_n of_o punishment_n no_o nor_o law_n that_o will_v bring_v people_n on_o to_o these_o holy_a exercise_n in_o their_o family_n and_o to_o this_o bless_a restreinte_v from_o ungodly_a conversation_n so_o well_o as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n frequent_o preach_v &_o wise_o direct_v by_o a_o skilful_a minister_n neither_o be_v there_o any_o expectation_n that_o a_o whole_a people_n shall_v at_o a_o instant_n be_v bring_v to_o this_o measure_n of_o conformity_n to_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n yet_o if_o parishional_a government_n may_v accompany_v parishional_a ministration_n of_o the_o word_n the_o people_n will_v doubtless_o the_o soon_o be_v bring_v hereunto_o not_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v any_o violent_a disgracinge_n or_o proceedinge_v against_o all_o that_o present_o be_v not_o conformable_a for_o this_o be_v to_o provoke_v untymely_a the_o people_n before_o the_o lord_n time_n for_o their_o conversion_n be_v come_v but_o that_o by_o little_a and_o little_a with_o meekeness_n and_o gentleness_n the_o parishional_a governor_n draw_v they_o on_o to_o conform_v themselves_o to_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o where_o any_o family_n be_v too_o obstinate_a refuse_v for_o long_a time_n to_o exercise_v therein_o any_o religious_a duty_n there_o i_o humble_o pray_v that_o your_o majesty_n encourage_v the_o parishional_a governor_n to_o proceed_v on_o orderly_o against_o such_o for_o sure_o a_o family_n that_o within_o its_o self_n do_v whole_o neglect_v all_o pion_n exercise_n be_v near_o unto_o atheism_n yea_o though_o they_o observe_v customary_o their_o come_n to_o church_n this_o if_o your_o majesty_n vouchsafe_v to_o do_v you_o shall_v sure_o make_v your_o memorial_n bless_v for_o ever_o even_o as_o be_v the_o memory_n of_o these_o good_a king_n bless_v of_o who_o before_o i_o have_v write_v if_o it_o be_v object_v that_o tradition_n show_v we_o no_o evidence_n that_o ever_o at_o all_o the_o church_n have_v such_o a_o government_n by_o lay_v elder_n also_o as_o which_o i_o now_o press_v for_o this_o be_v the_o difficult_a change_n i_o petition_n for_o than_o i_o answer_v if_o we_o receive_v the_o office_n of_o bishop_n &_o arch-bishop_n because_o tradition_n bring_v they_o to_o we_o when_o yet_o we_o have_v not_o any_o great_a warrant_n from_o scripture_n both_o for_o bishop_n and_o arch-bishopps_a though_o indeed_o for_o one_o set_v over_o teacher_n and_o church_n we_o have_v great_a evidence_n shall_v we_o not_o much_o more_o receive_v a_o government_n by_o lay_v elder_n which_o have_v evidence_n as_o i_o have_v before_o show_v in_o scripture_n yea_o though_o corrupt_a tradition_n afford_v we_o no_o light_n for_o such_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o give_v such_o evidence_n to_o a_o reformation_n which_o have_v aim_v at_o the_o pure_a tradition_n only_o as_o to_o that_o which_o have_v aim_v to_o reform_v thing_n by_o his_o word_n in_o scripture_n therefore_o to_o conform_v the_o office_n and_o government_n ecclesiastical_a to_o that_o which_o the_o scripture_n give_v we_o light_a for_o be_v sure_o most_o acceptable_a to_o god_n and_o shall_v receive_v the_o great_a blessing_n therefore_o i_o will_v conclude_v this_o my_o writing_n first_o with_o a_o petition_n to_o your_o majesty_n for_o the_o admittinge_n of_o such_o a_o parishional_a government_n have_v a_o eye_n rather_o at_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n as_o we_o find_v it_o in_o holy_a scripture_n then_o at_o corrupt_a tradition_n and_o its_o testimony_n and_o
