haue said of Moses and the Prophets too Their Pastor Maister F. I. made doubt of that Scripture and staid her excommunication as saying he would not consent to it yet after the womā had a little vnfoulded his euill dealing the same Maister F. Ih. at the same time could change his note and say if that none else would yet would he be the man that should excommunicate her And indeede asterward they so did and all that would not yeild to her excōmunicatiō as namely Mistris S. Widdowe Ch and R. R. though the chiefe magistrate of the cittie forbid them so to doe Diuers other reasons were alleadged about this matter which we shal haue time to relate after that we haue seene their answere to this if they will be at leasure so to doe Now may I not wish that they had not verified the Orators saying He that once passeth the boundes of modesty becommeth impudent out of measure Thus doe they abuse the holy ordinance of God to satisfie their owne reuenging stomacks non it a precipitanter in quenquam torquendum Is this the long suffering spirit of meekenes in recouering and seeking the lost Or doe they not knowe that the curse is not in vaine if it cleaues not to them to whome it is giuen it lights on the giuer Are not then their Bulls of excommunications so many curses on their owne pates shall I say to vse their owne allegation out of the Prophet As he loued cursing so shall it come vnto him and as he loued not blessing so shall it be farre from him and as hee cloathed himselfe with cursing like a rayment so shall it come into his bowells like water and like oyle into his bones Surelye God that will not holde him guiltles that taketh his name in vaine will neuer such profanation of his name and ordinance to goe in vaine And for some of them that are by these accursed I know they haue learned Christ otherwise then so as to feare the cursse causeles The Lord promised to Abraham whose children they are euen manye which they haue cast out that hee would blesse them that blesse thee and curse them that cursse thee c. And let them say as Dauid of Shimei It may bee the Lord will doe us good for their cursing this day yea let them acknowledge Gods goodnesse towards them in drawing them out of their Tents as I doe his mercy towards me in keeping me frō ioyning with thē being yet sometimes addicted too much vnto thē before I perceiued their fearefull estate I could cite many other things yet viler as their Sauadge and cruell dealing to fatherlesse Children as namely Maister P. and Maister B. his Children and other such like But I like not now to saile further in this Ocean but will content my selfe with the confession of their owne members W. C. I thought said he that they had beene all Saints but I haue found them all deuils and this before many witnesses yet is this man still a member amongst them And for these excommunicators the Lord giue them grace to repent that they may neuer haue their portion among the cursed to heare that fearefull sentence Goe ye cursed which is the thing I wish them from my heart Amen Since then they haue confuted their owne writings and giuen the black sentence of condemnation to the other Churches of Christ that haue beene yea and themselues by their description and practise that amongst themselues which they condemne in others let others take heede howe they pertake in their sinnes least also they taste of their fond excommunications And for the prophane not to speake here of the popish factiō drowned in superstitiō whole fruites are treachery let them not heerby be hardned the more in their sinne prophanes but rather seeing they that ftriue if they striue not lawfully doe yet misse of the marke they ayme at what shall bee the end of those that set not forward at all in the waies of God let them remember that the gate is straite and the way narrow that leadeth to life the sewnes of those that finde it And for the Israel of God The Lord giue them holynesse peace without the which they shall neuer see him to their comfort Hee that causeth the righteous to goe astray by an euill way shall fall into his owne pit Pro. 28. 10. Thine in Christ Tho White Since I had finished this treatise I heare that Tho Canady before mencioned hath liued in Sodometry with his Boy as the Apostle speakes of the heathen men with men wrought filthines c. and notwithstanding his great wayling is now cast out wherin it seemeth they haue forgotten their wonted allegation If thy brother sinne against thee not alone vntil seuen times but seuenty times seauen thou shalt for giue him If hee returne againe and say it repenteth me c. Certaine briefe reasons proouing the vse of the Lords prayer as a Prayer 1. AN expresse commaundement neyther contrary to nature nor analogy of Faith and agreeable also to the drift and tenor of the place ought litterally to bee vnderstood and obeyed But this Mat. 6. 9. 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 c. And Luc. 11. 2. 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 say our Father c. is such an expresse commaundement c. ergo It is also so to be vnderstood and vsed 2. It Christ had taught onely to pray to this effect then had he taught nothing but that which Iohns Disciples and al the faithful practised before for the Prayers of the Saints as of Salomon Nehemiah Daniel were to that effect before 3. Whatsoeuer Scripture hath in euery respect the forme of Prayer that is not alone matter of Doctrine but hath beene vsed also as Prayer But this Scripture Math. 6. 9. hath in euery respect the forme of Prayer as Our Father giue vs leade vs and amen annexed in the end ergo And indeed how can they tell which were Prayers and which not if not by their forme of Petition wherby they are distinguished from Doctrines rules proposed in an other forme as Mat. 7. 7. 21. 22 1. Ioh. 5. 14. 4. In a duety to bee vsed of all the holy Ghost is plaine but if those very words are not to bee vsed as a Prayer no christian for 1500. yeares more did vnderstand our Lords meaning But they say that the Apostles neuer vsed those very wordes in prayer I answere 1. An expresse commaundemēt is warrant sufficient without example 2. There is no example in the whole booke of Gen of the obseruation of the Sabaoth for 2369. yeares space after the institution of it Gen. 2. Neither to come nearer is their any example of Baptising in the name of the Father Sonne and holy Ghost yet is the commaundement of Christ sufficient warrant so to doe Compare Math. 28. 19. with Act. 10. 28. 19. 5. 3. It is the Anabaptists reasoning against childrens baptisme asking for an example whē otherwise there is sufficient warrant so to doe yet are their Pretences as good or better then M Iohnsons in refusing obedience to our Lords commaundement for want of an example 4. The Prayers mencioned in the new Testament are such as were poured foorth vpon speciall occasion as Act. 4. 24. Ioh. 17. 5. Let them shewe mee an example where euer the Apostles prayed before their Sermons if they can FINIS Errata IN the Preface the first line leaue out dangerous for Luc. 1. 14. 15. reade Luc. 1. 74. 75.
