A91883 Liberty of conscience: or The sole means to obtaine peace and truth. Not onely reconciling His Majesty with His subjects, but all Christian states and princes to one another, with the freest passage for the gospel. Very seasonable and necessary in these distracted times, when most men are weary of war, and cannot finde the way to peace. Robinson, Henry, 1605?-1664?; Walwyn, William, 1600-1681, attributed name. 1643 (1643) Wing R1675; Thomason E39_1; ESTC R20544 74,273 74

upon_o good_a will_n the_o one_o preach_v christ_n of_o contention_n not_o sincere_o suppose_v to_o add_v affliction_n to_o my_o bond_n but_o the_o other_o of_o love_n know_v that_o i_o be_o set_v for_o the_o defence_n of_o the_o gospel_n what_o then_o notwithstanding_o every_o way_n whether_o in_o pretence_n or_o in_o truth_n christ_n be_v preach_v and_o i_o therein_o do_v rejoice_v yea_o and_o will_v rejoice_v for_o i_o know_v that_o this_o shall_v turn_v to_o my_o salvation_n through_o your_o prayer_n and_o the_o supply_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n yea_o will_v some_o say_v great_a shame_n it_o be_v if_o we_o shall_v not_o rejoice_v that_o christ_n be_v true_o preach_v in_o what_o manner_n soever_o but_o such_o as_o we_o silence_n and_o persecute_v though_o they_o confess_v and_o preach_v christ_n in_o word_n yet_o they_o hold_v certain_a erroneous_a tenet_n which_o strike_v at_o the_o foundation_n and_o overthrow_n christianity_n i_o desire_v such_o to_o remember_v those_o scripture_n which_o say_v that_o whosoever_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n do_v not_o commit_v sin_n for_o his_o seed_n remain_v in_o he_o and_o he_o can_v sin_v because_o he_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n whosoever_o 9_o ●_o joh._n 3._o 9_o believe_v in_o he_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o have_v eternal_a life_n and_o whosoever_o shall_v confess_v that_o jesus_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n god_n dwell_v in_o he_o and_o he_o in_o 15_o john_n 3_o 13_o 〈…〉_o 4_o 15_o god_n now_o as_o we_o know_v that_o david_n though_o he_o commit_v adultery_n and_o murder_n be_v bear_v of_o god_n notwithstanding_o this_o text_n because_o it_o mean_v only_o that_o god_n impute_v not_o sin_n unto_o they_o that_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n so_o he_o that_o believe_v in_o god_n and_o confess_v that_o jesus_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n though_o he_o do_v together_o with_o this_o foundation_n hold_v certain_a point_n which_o may_v seem_v to_o cross_v it_o and_o be_v in_o a_o great_a degree_n erroneous_a but_o contrary_a to_o his_o own_o intention_n it_o be_v both_o very_o possible_a and_o probable_a that_o such_o a_o one_o notwithstanding_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o god_n dwell_v in_o he_o and_o he_o in_o god_n in_o the_o very_a bible_n we_o find_v several_a text_n and_o passage_n which_o seem_v to_o thwait_v and_o contradict_v themselves_o yet_o we_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o whole_a scripture_n be_v the_o inspiration_n of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o bless_a spirit_n can_v but_o be_v at_o unity_n within_o itself_o and_o all_o good_a christian_n be_v full_o assure_v thereof_o though_o they_o be_v not_o able_a sometime_o to_o make_v it_o appear_v so_o to_o their_o weak_a and_o carnal_a understanding_n and_o in_o such_o case_n we_o have_v the_o example_n of_o st._n paul_n rom._n 11._o 13._o the_o great_a apostle_n of_o the_o gentile_n who_o though_o he_o testify_v of_o himself_o that_o he_o give_v his_o judgement_n as_o one_o 40._o 1_o cor._n 7._o 25._o 40._o that_o have_v obtain_v mercy_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o be_v faithful_a and_o think_v that_o he_o also_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n yet_o have_v wade_v into_o the_o mystery_n of_o predestination_n so_o far_o as_o his_o own_o reason_n can_v arrive_v burst_v out_o into_o a_o most_o devout_a admiration_n o_o the_o depth_n of_o the_o riches_n both_o of_o the_o wisdom_n and_o knowledge_n 33._o rom._n 11._o 33._o of_o god_n how_o unsearchable_a be_v his_o judgement_n and_o his_o way_n past_o find_v out_o in_o s._n paul_n epistle_n to_o the_o roman_n chap._n 3._o 28._o it_o be_v say_v therefore_o we_o conclude_v that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n without_o the_o deed_n of_o the_o law_n and_o st._n james_n say_v james_n 2._o 24._o you_o see_v then_o how_o that_o by_o work_n a_o man_n be_v justify_v and_o not_o by_o faith_n only_o now_o as_o we_o be_v full_o assure_v that_o these_o two_o scripture_n though_o they_o differ_v so_o much_o literal_o be_v notwithstanding_o not_o only_o in_o their_o own_o be_v reconcileable_a but_o even_o in_o our_o shallow_a capacity_n and_o apprehension_n and_o as_o god_n have_v good_a cause_n why_o he_o count_v paul_n faithful_a and_o put_v he_o into_o the_o ministry_n who_o be_v before_o 13._o 1_o tim._n 1._o 12_o 13._o a_o blasphemer_n and_o persecuter_n so_o we_o may_v safe_o think_v that_o god_n can_v much_o more_o after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n be_v it_o speak_v tell_v how_o to_o prosper_v their_o endeavour_n and_o bring_v unto_o salvation_n such_o as_o believe_v in_o he_o and_o confess_v jesus_n to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n for_o his_o word_n and_o promise_n be_v engage_v and_o can_v be_v frustrate_v through_o their_o weakness_n and_o unsoundnesse_n in_o some_o point_n of_o
