A72485	The tell-troth's reqvitall, or, Truth's recompence as it was preached the 12th day of November, 1626, at Eckington: wherein are contained these three propositions, (vindicating Paul from the aspersion of enmity, and laying it on the Galatians,) viz. 1 No grace of God in man can secure him from the enmity of the unregenerate. 2 Sometimes a ministers owne hearers are set in variance against him. 3 The publication of the truth is the cause of this variance. By Samuel Kenrick student in divinity, and preacher of Gods word in the same place.	Kenrick, Samuel, b. 1602 or 3.	1627 (1627)	STC 14933; ESTC S123195	28,422	39
