A81905	A case of conscience concerning ministers medling with state matters in or out of their sermons resolved more satisfactorily then heretofore. Wherein amongst other particulars, these matters are insisted upon, and cleared. 1 How all controversies and debates among Christians ought to be handled regularly, and conscionably to edification by those that meddle therewith. 2 What the proper employments are of Christian magistrates, and Gospel-Ministers, as their works are distinct, and should be concurrent for the publick good at all times. 3 What the way of Christianity is, whereby at this time our present distractions, and publick breaches may be healed : if magistrates and ministers neglect not the main duties of their respective callings. Where a ground is layed to satisfie the scruple of the Demurrer, and of the Grand Case of Conscience. / Written by John Dury, minister of the Gospel, to give a friend satisfaction: and published at the desire of many.

convict_v that_o their_o ultimate_a end_n must_v not_o be_v so_o much_o to_o serve_v themselves_o and_o other_o in_o temporal_a matter_n as_o to_o protect_v the_o city_n of_o god_n from_o all_o anoyance_n of_o the_o wicked_a of_o this_o world_n for_o that_o be_v david_n meaning_n when_o he_o say_v in_o the_o conclusion_n of_o this_o psalm_n that_o he_o will_v early_o destroy_v all_o the_o wicked_a of_o the_o land_n that_o he_o may_v cut_v off_o all_o wicked_a doer_n from_o the_o city_n of_o the_o lord_n where_o it_o evidenty_n do_v appear_v that_o the_o last_o effect_n of_o his_o endeavour_n in_o his_o magistracy_n be_v to_o procure_v the_o well_o be_v of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n by_o the_o way_n of_o power_n and_o authority_n which_o god_n have_v put_v into_o his_o hand_n and_o if_o so_o than_o these_o corollary_n will_v follow_v as_o i_o conceive_v concern_v the_o power_n and_o duty_n of_o the_o magistrate_n the_o ground_n upon_o which_o it_o be_v hope_v 1._o that_o to_o the_o magistrate_n a_o coercive_a power_n of_o all_o wickedness_n do_v belong_v both_o in_o church_n and_o commonwealth_n 2._o that_o no_o person_n may_v pretend_v any_o exemption_n from_o be_v under_o his_o power_n and_o jurisdiction_n in_o outward_a visible_a matter_n belong_v to_o their_o place_n 3._o that_o he_o be_v bind_v by_o his_o place_n to_o protect_v those_o who_o he_o judge_v true_a and_o faithful_a servant_n to_o god_n in_o all_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o service_n 4._o that_o he_o ought_v to_o take_v notice_n of_o the_o carriage_n of_o all_o minister_n in_o their_o place_n how_o they_o behave_v themselves_o therein_o without_o blame_n and_o oversee_v all_o the_o affair_n which_o be_v agitate_a among_o they_o in_o all_o their_o public_a assembly_n 5._o that_o as_o the_o city_n of_o god_n without_o his_o protection_n can_v be_v in_o safety_n so_o without_o his_o concurrence_n the_o public_a reformation_n thereof_o can_v be_v accomplish_v 6._o that_o it_o do_v no_o way_n belong_v unto_o any_o who_o by_o god_n appointment_n be_v under_o his_o inspection_n protection_n and_o jurisdiction_n and_o aught_o to_o act_v with_o his_o concurrence_n to_o take_v upon_o they_o to_o act_v any_o thing_n in_o a_o public_a way_n or_o of_o public_a concernment_n whereof_o to_o he_o they_o intend_v not_o to_o be_v accountable_a the_o necessity_n of_o it_o these_o corollary_n as_o they_o follow_v clear_o to_o my_o understanding_n upon_o the_o last_o word_n and_o matter_n of_o the_o text_n so_o i_o be_o persuade_v they_o will_v meet_v with_o no_o objection_n or_o contradiction_n which_o to_o a_o rational_a man_n may_v not_o easy_o be_v answer_v therefore_o take_v they_o as_o truth_n to_o be_v grant_v i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o build_v thereupon_o that_o which_o i_o think_v may_v and_o hope_n will_v and_o judge_n shall_v work_v a_o christian_a correspondendency_n between_o the_o present_a roll_a power_n and_o the_o ministry_n of_o these_o church_n for_o see_v it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o ministry_n and_o magistracy_n be_v the_o pillar_n of_o humane_a society_n and_o that_o a_o house_n can_v stand_v when_o the_o pillar_n which_o support_v it_o stand_v not_o firm_a together_o or_o by_o their_o stand_n weaken_v one_o another_o therefore_o we_o must_v needs_o conclude_v that_o if_o there_o be_v no_o amiable_a correspondency_n seek_v but_o a_o manifest_a division_n maintain_v between_o these_o two_o that_o our_o public_a disease_n will_v become_v absolute_o incurable_a and_o that_o this_o symptom_n thereof_o will_v be_v fatal_a to_o this_o state_n for_o except_v a_o cure_n can_v be_v find_v unto_o this_o breach_n how_o can_v there_o be_v any_o true_a heal_n of_o other_o breach_n or_o prevention_n of_o future_a calamity_n hope_v for_o will_v not_o from_o hence_o inevitable_o follow_v a_o perpetual_a increase_n of_o animosity_n and_o offence_n on_o all_o side_n and_o from_o thence_o a_o endless_a sequel_n of_o judgement_n and_o will_v not_o god_n destroy_v all_o those_o that_o be_v accessary_a to_o the_o cause_n of_o such_o evil_n except_o they_o prevent_v he_o by_o repentance_n therefore_o to_o complete_a the_o application_n of_o the_o forename_a remedy_n which_o we_o have_v find_v to_o be_v specifical_a to_o our_o disease_n nothing_o can_v be_v think_v upon_o more_o useful_a nor_o so_o necessary_a than_o to_o work_v out_o and_o procure_v this_o correspondency_n for_o as_o without_o the_o concurrence_n of_o these_o two_o hand_n there_o can_v be_v no_o settlement_n or_o advancement_n of_o any_o public_a undertake_n so_o with_o their_o joint_a strength_n and_o cooperation_n in_o this_o way_n of_o god_n we_o may_v confident_o hope_v that_o the_o work_n of_o our_o reformation_n may_v be_v speedy_a safe_a full_a and_o permanent_a let_v i_o therefore_o as_o one_o touch_v with_o the_o sense_n of_o this_o necessary_a duty_n discharge_v my_o conscience_n in_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n three_o point_n to_o be_v speak_v to_o about_o it_o i_o shall_v not_o stretch_v myself_o beyond_o my_o line_n either_o in_o respect_n of_o superior_a power_n or_o of_o my_o brethren_n in_o the_o ministry_n but_o with_o all_o tenderness_n faithfulness_n and_o humility_n of_o spirit_n i_o shall_v apply_v myself_o unto_o they_o both_o joint_o and_o as_o brief_o as_o may_v be_v in_o so_o weighty_a matter_n and_o for_o a_o close_a to_o this_o discourse_n i_o shall_v represent_v unto_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o indifferent_o three_o thing_n 1._o what_o the_o conscionable_a inducement_n be_v which_o shall_v equal_o move_v both_o magistrate_n and_o minister_n unto_o a_o friendly_a correspondency_n in_o the_o discharge_n of_o their_o public_a duty_n 2._o what_o the_o mean_n and_o way_n be_v by_o which_o this_o correspondency_n both_o may_v and_o aught_o to_o be_v entertain_v 3._o how_o the_o obstacle_n which_o stand_v in_o the_o way_n thereof_o shall_v be_v remove_v of_o the_o first_o concern_v the_o motive_n oblige_v magistrate_n and_o minister_n to_o correspond_v in_o their_o charge_n if_o conscience_n shall_v be_v reflect_v upon_o and_o consult_v withal_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o inducement_n which_o shall_v equal_o move_v christian_n magistrate_n and_o godly_a minister_n to_o correspond_v together_o in_o the_o discharge_n of_o their_o public_a duty_n three_o thing_n will_v be_v find_v considerable_a to_o they_o both_o 1._o their_o joint_a relation_n unto_o god_n who_o have_v put_v they_o both_o in_o their_o public_a place_n as_o his_o servant_n 2._o the_o great_a interest_n of_o christianity_n which_o he_o have_v main_o recommend_v unto_o they_o both_o 3._o the_o immediate_a end_n of_o their_o mutual_a correspondency_n which_o be_v these_o two_o the_o purify_n of_o the_o city_n of_o god_n from_o all_o wickedness_n and_o the_o strengthen_n of_o each_o other_o hand_n in_o go_v about_o that_o work_n both_o which_o thing_n they_o be_v equal_o oblige_v in_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n to_o intend_v if_o therefore_o any_o weak_a voice_n can_v reach_v unto_o they_o both_o at_o once_o i_o will_v with_o due_a respect_n say_v thus_o if_o either_o of_o you_o do_v mind_n the_o great_a lord_n and_o master_n under_o who_o you_o stand_v as_o moses_n and_o aaron_n do_v if_o to_o he_o you_o judge_v yourselves_o to_o be_v fellow-servant_n equal_o accountable_a as_o well_o of_o your_o mutual_a willingness_n to_o concur_v in_o his_o service_n as_o of_o any_o other_o duty_n if_o you_o think_v the_o profession_n of_o christianity_n a_o business_n worth_a the_o own_n and_o a_o work_n incumbent_n to_o your_o charge_n that_o you_o shall_v uphold_v and_o advance_v it_o as_o well_o joint_o as_o several_o if_o the_o well_o be_v of_o the_o city_n of_o god_n and_o of_o the_o commonwealth_n of_o israel_n be_v at_o all_o a_o design_n to_o be_v think_v upon_o by_o you_o and_o if_o you_o can_v rational_o conceive_v that_o your_o amiable_a concurrence_n will_v be_v high_o helpful_a towards_o these_o undertake_n and_o that_o the_o want_v thereof_o will_v be_v as_o great_a a_o obstruction_n as_o any_o that_o can_v befall_v thereunto_o then_o i_o must_v entreat_v you_o that_o be_v upright_o in_o heart_n and_o that_o understand_v what_o such_o engagement_n mean_v that_o upon_o the_o consideration_n thereof_o you_o will_v show_v yourselves_o conscionable_o love_v and_o inclinable_a to_o a_o correspondency_n but_o if_o you_o will_v not_o lay_v this_o duty_n to_o heart_n nor_o make_v use_n of_o the_o interest_n which_o you_o have_v in_o each_o other_o for_o the_o service_n of_o the_o lord_n my_o soul_n shall_v weep_v in_o 17_o jer._n 13._o 17_o secret_a place_n for_o your_o pride_n and_o my_o eye_n shall_v weep_v sore_o and_o run_v down_o with_o

unto_o they_o i_o say_v then_o two_o thing_n first_o that_o although_o minister_n live_v in_o a_o state_n as_o private_a man_n for_o in_o a_o state_n they_o be_v nothing_o else_o though_o in_o the_o

for_o they_o to_o publish_v those_o thought_n with_o reference_n to_o their_o ministerial_a employment_n to_o make_v it_o any_o way_n instrumental_a to_o deface_v the_o same_o into_o the_o thought_n of_o the_o people_n as_o to_o give_v they_o notice_n thereof_o by_o way_n of_o public_a intelligence_n nay_o it_o be_v a_o very_a great_a question_n with_o i_o whether_o any_o other_o man_n be_v

the_o faithful_a minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n shall_v become_v both_o leader_n &_o monitor_n towards_o their_o flock_n and_o therefore_o as_o they_o ought_v to_o do_v nothing_o that_o may_v any_o
