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

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

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

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

of_o separation_n to_o make_v themselves_o the_o mark_n of_o several_a church_n to_o which_o apostle_n be_v the_o guide_n be_v a_o sin_n of_o carnality_n as_o s._n paul_n say_v it_o be_v what_o shall_v we_o say_v of_o some_o people_n of_o our_o time_n who_o instead_o of_o several_a apostle_n to_o divide_v themselves_o by_o do_v choose_v to_o themselves_o guide_v so_o mean_a so_o

will_v hold_v out_o so_o long_o who_o come_v disintere_v hither_o this_o second_o part_n of_o this_o sermon_n shall_v be_v spend_v in_o the_o pursuit_n of_o that_o which_o master_n deane_z of_o

the_o present_a separation_n of_o these_o time_n do_v build_v themselves_o these_o ground_n therefore_o i_o shall_v now_o in_o the_o next_o place_n call_v to_o some_o reckon_n and_o account_n and_o in_o the_o do_n of_o this_o i_o will_v hang_v up_o a_o pair_n of_o scale_n before_o you_o you_o shall_v see_v their_o argument_n place_v in_o one_o scale_n and_o my_o answer_n in_o the_o other_o and_o
