vain_a unnecessary_a if_o it_o spring_v more_o out_o of_o humour_n pride_n desi●e_n of_o change_n or_o hatred_n of_o their_o brethren_n than_o out_o of_o any_o christian_a love_n to_o keep_v

grievous_a sin_n this_o sin_n of_o schism_n or_o separation_n be_v if_o the_o time_n will_v give_v i_o leave_v i_o may_v here_o raise_v the_o schoolman_n ancient_a father_n and_o general_n counsel_n from_o the_o dead_a and_o make_v they_o preach_v to_o you_o from_o this_o pulpit_n against_o the_o sin_n of_o separation_n i_o may_v tell_v you_o that_o in_o the_o pure_a time_n of_o the_o church_n a_o schismatic_a and_o heretic_n be_v look_v upon_o as_o twin_n the_o one_o as_o a_o enemy_n to_o the_o faith_n the_o other_o to_o communion_n but_o because_o in_o our_o dark_a time_n learning_n be_v

new_a gift_a man_n unknown_a i_o will_v say_v nothing_o of_o this_o sin_n but_o what_o the_o scripture_n say_v before_o i_o first_o then_o i_o shall_v desire_v you_o to_o hear_v what_o s._n paul_n say_v in_o this_o case_n in_o the_o last_o chapter_n of_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o roman_n at_o the_o 17._o verse_n turn_v to_o the_o place_n and_o mark_v it_o well_o i_o beseech_v you_o now_o i_o

and_o say_v for_o they_o that_o be_v such_o serve_v not_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o their_o own_o belly_n and_o by_o good_a word_n and_o fair_a speech_n deceive_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o simple_a in_o which_o word_n four_o thing_n be_v so_o exact_o draw_v to_o life_n as_o make_v they_o a_o perfect_a prophecy_n or_o rather_o picture_n of_o our_o time_n the_o first_o be_v that_o there_o be_v some_o in_o s._n paul_n day_n who_o cause_v division_n in_o the_o church_n man_n who_o in_o a_o way_n of_o schism_n and_o separation_n make_v themselves_o the_o head_n and_o leader_n of_o divide_a congregation_n next_o the_o ground_n upon_o which_o they_o build_v their_o separation_n it_o be_v not_o upon_o any_o just_a true_a lawful_a scripture-ground_n for_o the_o text_n say_v it_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o doctrine_n which_o the_o apostle_n teach_v and_o preach_v but_o the_o true_a cause_n or_o ground_n why_o they_o thus_o cause_v separation_n be_v mere_o self-interest_n and_o that_o they_o may_v gain_v by_o their_o division_n nay_o it_o be_v such_o a_o poor_a base_a unworthy_a self-interest_n that_o it_o be_v there_o say_v they_o do_v it_o in_o compliance_n to_o their_o belly_n the_o three_o thing_n which_o will_v deserve_v your_o observation_n be_v the_o cunning_a be_v they_o use_v to_o draw_v the_o weak_a to_o be_v their_o follower_n it_o be_v there_o say_v that_o by_o good_a word_n and_o fair_a speech_n they_o deceive_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o simple_a especial_o the_o simple_a of_o the_o weak_a sex_n and_o who_o these_o be_v s._n paul_n in_o other_o word_n but_o to_o the_o same_o purpose_n tell_v you_o in_o the_o 3._o chapter_n of_o his_o second_o epistle_n to_o timothy_n at_o the_o 5_o 6_o 7._o verse_n of_o that_o chapter_n where_o speak_v of_o such_o cozener_n he_o say_v they_o have_v a_o form_n of_o godliness_n a_o outward_a seem_a holiness_n to_o deceive_v and_o cozen_v by_o and_o that_o under_o this_o form_n of_o godliness_n they_o creep_v into_o house_n and_o there_o lead_v captive_a silly_a woman_n load_v with_o sin_n and_o draw_v away_o with_o divers_a lusts._n woman_n so_o unable_a to_o distinguish_v right_o from_o wrong_n that_o they_o be_v always_o learning_n and_o never_o able_a to_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o certain_o my_o brethren_n it_o be_v no_o new_a thing_n under_o the_o sun_n to_o see_v the_o weak_a sex_n mislead_v by_o holy_a form_n and_o show_n it_o be_v no_o new_a thing_n i_o say_v under_o the_o sun_n for_o a_o man_n that_o make_v long_a prayer_n to_o eat_v up_o a_o widow_n house_n or_o for_o a_o cunning_a angler_n to_o catch_v the_o silly_a sort_n with_o a_o hook_n bait_v with_o religion_n it_o be_v so_o in_o our_o saviour_n time_n and_o it_o be_v so_o in_o s._n paul_n and_o whether_o their_o demure_a look_n their_o precise_a carriage_n their_o long_a prayer_n their_o good_a word_n and_o fair_a speech_n be_v not_o the_o hook_n and_o snare_n by_o which_o weak_a people_n be_v catch_v now_o whether_o the_o feast_n of_o their_o belly_n or_o the_o make_v gayne_n of_o godliness_n or_o whether_o the_o itch_n and_o pride_n of_o be_v the_o leader_n of_o a_o faction_n or_o whether_o the_o vain_a ambition_n of_o be_v think_v more_o holy_a or_o more_o gift_v than_o the_o rest_n be_v not_o the_o true_a end_n of_o those_o who_o do_v now_o cause_v separation_n i_o will_v not_o rash_o censure_v but_o i_o have_v some_o reason_n to_o suspect_v but_o this_o be_v not_o all_o the_o four_o and_o last_o thing_n which_o most_o deserve_v your_o observation_n be_v that_o separation_n in_o that_o place_n be_v such_o a_o scripture-sin_n that_o s._n paul_n command_v we_o to_o separate_v from_o those_o who_o do_v thus_o cause_v separation_n hear_v the_o place_n i_o pray_v once_o more_o repeat_v to_o you_o i_o beseech_v you_o brethren_n say_v he_o mark_v they_o who_o cause_n division_n among_o you_o and_o avoid_v they_o that_o be_v as_o i_o say_v before_o separate_a yourselves_o from_o they_o if_o they_o who_o upon_o no_o just_a cause_n do_v separate_a must_v be_v separate_a from_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v all_o confess_v that_o separation_n be_v a_o sin_n and_o what_o sin_n think_v you_o be_v this_o sin_n of_o separation_n why_o i_o know_v some_o of_o you_o will_v think_v it_o strange_a if_o i_o shall_v say_v it_o be_v a_o sin_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o yet_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n of_o the_o flesh_n in_o the_o 3._o chapter_n of_o his_o first_o epistle_n to_o the_o corinthian_n mark_v i_o beseech_v you_o what_o he_o say_v in_o that_o place_n be_v you_o not_o carnal_a say_v he_o there_o for_o whereas_o there_o be_v among_o you_o envy_n and_o strife_n and_o division_n be_v you_o not_o carnal_a and_o walk_v
