A80794	A learned and exceeding well-compiled vindication of liberty of religion: written by Junius Brutus in Latine, and translated into English by N.Y. who desires, as much as in him is, to do good unto all men: wherein these three following propositions are undenyably proved, and all objections to the contrary fully answered. 1. That if magistrates, in case of necessity, promise hereticks liberty of religion; they are bound to performe their promise after that necessity ceaseth. 2 That magistrates may with a safe conscience grant hereticks liberty of religion, and oblige themselves by an oath, or bond of assurance, to provide for their safety and security. 3. That magistrates ought to grant hereticks liberty of religion, and to oblige themselves by an oath, or bond of assurance, to provide for their safety and security.; Vindiciae pro religionis libertate. English.	Crell, Johann, 1590-1633.; N. Y. translator.	1646 (1646)	Wing C6879; Thomason E1178_4; ESTC R208101	37,701	85

for_o this_o very_a reason_n because_o they_o do_v it_o through_o ignorance_n or_o error_n not_o through_o pride_n and_o stubbornness_n of_o heart_n but_o what_o shall_v we_o say_v of_o christ_n who_o come_v into_o the_o world_n for_o that_o purpose_n that_o he_o may_v save_v sinner_n paul_n write_v of_o himself_o that_o christ_n jesus_n our_o lord_n put_v he_o in_o his_o service_n who_o be_v before_o a_o blasphemer_n and_o a_o persecutor_n and_o a_o oppressor_n but_o say_v he_o i_o be_v receive_v to_o mercy_n because_o i_o do_v it_o ignorant_o through_o unbelief_n behold_v he_o obtain_v pardon_n for_o so_o great_a sin_n as_o blasphemy_n persecution_n reproach_n and_o oppression_n wherewith_o he_o trouble_v and_o afflict_v the_o godly_a because_o he_o do_v those_o thing_n ignorant_o through_o unbelief_n and_o that_o at_o such_o a_o time_n wherein_o the_o memory_n be_v yet_o fresh_a of_o those_o great_a miracle_n and_o infinite_a in_o number_n which_o be_v wrought_v by_o christ_n when_o those_o wonderful_a deed_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v daily_o to_o be_v see_v when_o those_o faithful_a person_n themselves_o who_o paul_n with_o a_o outrageous_a fury_n persecute_v be_v full_a of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o at_o least_o many_o of_o they_o famous_a and_o renown_a for_o their_o miracle_n neither_o do_v this_o bounty_n of_o christ_n make_v a_o stand_n at_o paul_n for_o the_o apostle_n himself_o show_v in_o the_o word_n that_o follow_v that_o place_n to_o timothy_n that_o christ_n will_v show_v a_o example_n in_o he_o of_o all_o long_a suffering_n that_o other_o also_o from_o thence_o may_v have_v a_o strong_a belief_n of_o so_o great_a mercy_n of_o christ_n towards_o they_o if_o christ_n do_v both_o bear_n with_o in_o so_o great_a evidence_n and_o clearness_n of_o the_o truth_n a_o blasphemer_n a_o persecutor_n and_o contumelious_a person_n and_o bestow_v so_o great_a a_o favour_n upon_o he_o as_o to_o commit_v the_o most_o holy_a function_n of_o the_o apostolical_a office_n unto_o he_o because_o whatsoever_o he_o do_v he_o do_v it_o ignorant_o through_o unbelief_n why_o do_v the_o servant_n of_o jesus_n christ_n refuse_v to_o tolerate_v those_o who_o at_o this_o time_n wherein_o no_o man_n dare_v say_v the_o christian_a religion_n be_v attend_v with_o so_o great_a splendour_n and_o renown_n of_o miracle_n may_v err_v indeed_o and_o perhaps_o

may_v yet_o appear_v more_o manifest_o by_o the_o example_n of_o christ_n that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o suppress_v heretic_n by_o violence_n and_o to_o haule_v they_o to_o punishment_n let_v we_o observe_v how_o he_o behave_v himself_o towards_o apostate_n the_o law_n as_o we_o have_v signify_v before_o command_v a_o apostate_n to_o be_v slay_v without_o mercy_n thy_o eye_n shall_v not_o pity_v he_o neither_o stalt_a thou_o show_v mercy_n nor_o keep_v he_o secret_a but_o thou_o shall_v even_o kill_v he_o thy_o hand_n shall_v be_v first_o upon_o he_o to_o put_v he_o to_o death_n will_v not_o they_o say_v here_o that_o hold_v it_o fit_a for_o heretic_n to_o be_v punish_v that_o this_o course_n be_v a_o great_a deal_n rather_o to_o be_v take_v against_o those_o which_o revolt_n from_o christ_n and_o when_o they_o have_v be_v his_o disciple_n will_v now_o no_o long_o be_v of_o their_o company_n certain_o if_o heretic_n be_v to_o be_v slay_v who_o notwithstanding_o profess_v and_o honour_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o be_v ready_a to_o suffer_v a_o most_o terrible_a and_o cruel_a death_n for_o his_o honour_n although_o they_o do_v not_o right_o understand_v his_o doctrine_n much_o more_o shall_v they_o be_v worthy_a of_o this_o punishment_n who_o altogether_o reject_v his_o doctrine_n and_o do_v so_o forsake_v that_o faith_n which_o they_o have_v place_v in_o he_o that_o they_o will_v not_o profess_v his_o name_n any_o long_o and_o be_v conversant_a among_o his_o disciple_n but_o what_o do_v christ_n teach_v we_o by_o his_o example_n that_o we_o ought_v so_o to_o do_v and_o do_v he_o not_o rather_o demonstrate_v the_o contrary_a we_o read_v in_o john_n c._n 6._o v._n 66._o that_o after_o christ_n have_v discourse_v much_o concern_v the_o eat_n of_o his_o own_o flesh_n and_o drink_v of_o his_o own_o blood_n many_o of_o his_o disciple_n be_v offend_v at_o this_o his_o speech_n go_v back_o and_o walk_v no_o more_o with_o he_o but_o what_o say_v christ_n to_o these_o thing_n do_v he_o lead_v they_o violent_o to_o punishment_n or_o think_v it_o fit_v they_o shall_v in_o no_o wise_a moreover_o he_o bespeak_v those_o his_o twelve_o disciple_n or_o apostle_n after_o this_o manner_n will_v you_o also_o go_v away_o as_o if_o so_o be_v he_o have_v give_v they_o liberty_n to_o go_v away_o if_o they_o will_v thou_o will_v say_v that_o christ_n have_v no_o magistrate_n nor_o people_n at_o his_o beck_n and_o command_n to_o bring_v they_o to_o punishment_n but_o he_o have_v that_o divine_a virtue_n and_o power_n dwell_v in_o himself_o by_o which_o he_o may_v be_v able_a to_o destroy_v they_o without_o any_o external_a force_n and_o to_o have_v do_v it_o in_o such_o a_o way_n will_v not_o have_v be_v so_o liable_a and_o obnoxious_a to_o blame_v and_o reprehension_n because_o a_o punishment_n inflict_v upon_o they_o by_o a_o divine_a virtue_n and_o power_n aught_o to_o be_v account_v by_o they_o as_o a_o punishment_n inflict_v by_o god_n himself_o and_o so_o to_o be_v acknowledge_v most_o just_a moreover_o if_o such_o a_o course_n have_v be_v take_v in_o destroy_v they_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o disciple_n will_v have_v be_v strike_v with_o so_o much_o the_o great_a fear_n of_o dare_v to_o revolt_v from_o christ_n and_o his_o holy_a religion_n certain_o if_o those_o catholic_n who_o hold_v it_o fit_a for_o heretic_n to_o be_v persecute_v and_o destroy_v can_v have_v destroy_v they_o by_o their_o anathema_n as_o by_o a_o thunderbolt_n send_v miraculous_o from_o god_n they_o will_v in_o no_o wise_n have_v forbear_v to_o do_v it_o and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v desire_v not_o only_o by_o the_o catholic_n but_o even_o by_o the_o heretic_n themselves_o in_o some_o respect_n that_o catholic_n may_v be_v able_a to_o do_v it_o because_o from_o thence_o they_o will_v be_v manifest_o convince_v that_o the_o catholic_a religion_n be_v true_a and_o proceed_v from_o god_n and_o therefore_o will_v embrace_v it_o present_o neither_o will_v suffer_v such_o a_o severe_a and_o powerful_a thunderbolt_n to_o be_v dart_v forth_o upon_o they_o and_o then_o no_o catholic_n will_v fall_v into_o heresy_n why_o then_o do_v not_o christ_n do_v so_o who_o have_v so_o great_a power_n to_o effect_v it_o be_v it_o not_o therefore_o because_o he_o judge_v it_o most_o averse_a and_o disagreeable_a to_o his_o most_o gentle_a and_o meek_a spirit_n and_o to_o the_o religion_n which_o he_o publish_v and_o to_o the_o purpose_n and_o will_n of_o god_n for_o performance_n whereof_o he_o be_v send_v into_o the_o world_n he_o come_v not_o as_o elsewhere_o he_o speak_v of_o himself_o to_o destroy_v man_n life_n but_o to_o save_v they_o why_o therefore_o do_v not_o his_o servant_n and_o disciple_n the_o like_a before_o who_o he_o set_v himself_o for_o a_o example_n to_o be_v imitate_v who_o be_v or_o aught_o to_o be_v partaker_n of_o that_o spirit_n who_o profess_v his_o most_o holy_a religion_n they_o ought_v to_o call_v to_o memory_n that_o which_o our_o saviour_n himself_o once_o answer_v to_o his_o disciple_n when_o the_o samaritan_n refuse_v to_o entertain_v he_o for_o when_o they_o ask_v he_o whether_o he_o will_v have_v they_o to_o command_v that_o fire_n come_v down_o from_o heaven_n and_o consume_v they_o even_o as_o elias_n do_v jesus_n rebuke_v they_o and_o say_v you_o know_v not_o of_o what_o spirit_n you_o be_v for_o the_o
