A16691	The rasing of the foundations of Brovvnisme Wherein, against all the writings of the principall masters of that sect, those chiefe conclusions in the next page, are, (amongst sundry other matters, worthie the readers knowledge) purposely handled, and soundely prooued. Also their contrarie arguments and obiections deliberately examined, and clearly refelled by the word of God.	Bredwell, Stephen.	1588 (1588)	STC 3599; ESTC S106388	120,820	166

the_o state_n of_o be_v in_o christ_n by_o the_o same_o also_o do_v another_o and_o consequent_o many_o together_o even_o till_o you_o have_v reckon_v the_o whole_a number_n of_o the_o church_n

or_o else_o in_o respect_n of_o we_o that_o so_o judge_v and_o esteem_v of_o they_o now_o that_o the_o very_a presence_n itself_o of_o the_o wicked_a hinder_v not_o it_o be_v clear_a by_o the_o

of_o the_o feast_n if_o the_o very_a presence_n of_o a_o wicked_a man_n can_v have_v deprive_v the_o rest_n of_o the_o benefit_n of_o the_o action_n beside_o this_o point_n shall_v cause_v we_o continual_o to_o doubt_v in_o the_o action_n because_o there_o may_v be_v some_o hypocrite_n &_o unworthy_a receiver_n always_o among_o we_o and_o yet_o his_o sin_n so_o secret_o carry_v as_o the_o
