how_o do_v it_o follow_v that_o the_o lord_n prayer_n be_v account_v the_o necessary_a and_o only_a lawful_a petition_n for_o this_o mercy_n in_o every_o approach_n to_o god_n be_v the_o absolution_n in_o every_o approach_n to_o god_n or_o if_o the_o lord_n prayer_n be_v must_v it_o therefore_o be_v account_v the_o only_a lawful_a petition_n of_o pardon_n of_o sin_n 11._o last_o all_o the_o reason_n you_o express_v to_o enforce_v this_o conclusion_n be_v in_o your_o last_o word_n thou_o the_o lord_n prayer_n be_v constant_o subjoin_v but_o that_o indeed_o be_v no_o reason_n at_o all_o for_o though_o it_o be_v constant_o it_o be_v not_o only_o enjoin_v as_o a_o petition_n for_o pardon_n of_o sin_n and_o therefore_o you_o can_v say_v that_o it_o be_v repute_v or_o enjoin_v as_o the_o only_a lawful_a petition_n for_o that_o end_n and_o consequent_o ●our_n objection_n vanish_v 12._o can_v it_o be_v affirm_v by_o any_o that_o converse_v with_o the_o book_n of_o common-prayer_n that_o if_o we_o do_v assent_v unto_o it_o we_o assent_v that_o the_o lord_n prayer_n be_v the_o only_a lawful_a petition_n for_o pardon_n of_o sin_n while_o we_o find_v so_o frequent_a and_o so_o various_a form_n to_o that_o purpose_n even_o from_o the_o begin_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o say_a book_n beside_o that_o of_o the_o lord_n prayer_n 13._o what_o do_v those_o word_n in_o the_o confession_n signify_v but_o thou_o o_o lord_n have_v mercy_n upon_o we_o miserable_a offender_n spare_v thou_o they_o that_o confess_v their_o fault_n restore_v thou_o they_o that_o be_v penitent_a how_o often_o do_v we_o meet_v with_o lord_n have_v mercy_n upon_o we_o have_v mercy_n upon'u_fw-fr miserable_a sinner_n 14._o again_o more_o express_o remember_v not_o lord_n our_o offence_n nor_o the_o offence_n of_o our_o forefather_n neither_o take_v tho●_n vengeance_n of_o our_o sin_n deal_v not_o thou_o with_o we_o after_o our_o sin_n nor_o reward_v we_o after_o our_o iniquity_n merciful_o forgive_v the_o sin_n of_o thy_o people_n and_o abundance_n more_o in_o the_o office_n of_o communion_n the_o visitation_n of_o the_o sick_a commination_n and_o indeed_o either_o more_o express_o or_o implicit_o in_o every_o approach_n to_o god_n by_o the_o book_n of_o common_a prayer_n we_o have_v other_o petition_n of_o pardon_n of_o sin_n beside_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n prayer_n 13._o thus_o we_o see_v that_o wise_a and_o good_a man_n may_v have_v cause_n to_o join_v with_o we_o in_o the_o word_n of_o our_o liturgy_n that_o it_o may_v please_v thou_o to_o forgive_v we_o all_o our_o sin_n negligence_n and_o ignorances_n sect_n 3._o of_o popular_a respond_v 1._o second_o you_o complain_v that_o you_o can_v assent_v and_o consent_v to_o the_o word_n answer_v and_o the_o other_o

2._o my_o dear_a brethren_n pray_v consider_v that_o though_o these_o thing_n seem_v so_o direct_o repugnant_a to_o the_o apostle_n rule_v of_o decency_n and_o order_n with_o you_o &_o mr._n crofton_n yet_o they_o do_v not_o seem_v so_o to_o our_o present_a governor_n what_o order_n can_v be_v prudent_o expect_v in_o church_n or_o state_n if_o every_o private_a spirit_n shall_v be_v judge_n

you_o trust_v the_o management_n of_o all_o indifferent_a thing_n and_o all_o external_a circumstance_n about_o god_n worship_n to_o every_o private_a discretion_n i_o be_o sure_a the_o apostle_n do_v not_o 3._o however_o you_o say_v in_o your_o preface_n that_o you_o have_v admit_v and_o can_v admit_v many_o inexpediency_n for_o the_o liberty_n of_o your_o ministry_n now_o i_o be_o confident_a you_o will_v not_o say_v these_o be_v other_o than_o inexpediency_n in_o your_o own_o judgement_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o confidence_n yourselves_o have_v give_v i_o page_z 15._o where_o

you_o can_v admit_v inexpediency_n in_o your_o practice_n and_o bear_v with_o these_o thing_n and_o yet_o not_o give_v some_o assent_n and_o consent_v thereunto_o i_o be_o still_o to_o learn_v especial_o that_o they_o be_v indifferent_a and_o not_o simple_o sinful_a though_o perhaps_o inexpedient_a in_o your_o opinion_n sect_n 4._o of_o the_o holy_a table_n 1._o again_o you_o be_v offend_v at_o the_o word_n holy_a as_o a_o adjunct_n to_o table_n frequent_a in_o this_o book_n for_o you_o know_v no_o holiness_n of_o place_n or_o instrument_n under_o the_o gospel_n 2._o for_o answer_v hereunto_o pray_v ask_v yourselves_o in_o what_o sense_n place_n and_o instrument_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v holy_a in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n that_o the_o gospel_n dispensation_n can_v bear_v as_o you_o seem_v to_o intimate_v 3._o nay_o rather_o be_v not_o that_o holiness_n that_o be_v restrain_v to_o some_o place_n and_o some_o thing_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n now_o spread_v by_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n over_o all_o place_n and_o all_o thing_n to_o the_o pure_a all_o thing_n be_v pure_a what_o god_n have_v sanctify_v call_v not_o thou_o common_a or_o unclean_a 4._o so_o that_o any_o place_n or_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v capable_a of_o use_n in_o order_n to_o god_n service_n by_o this_o grace_n of_o the_o gospel_n we_o have_v liberty_n to_o use_v it_o and_o to_o set_v it_o apart_o for_o that_o peculiar_a use_n about_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n as_o this_o public_a house_n and_o not_o another_o this_o particular_a table_n and_o not_o another_o etc._n etc._n 5._o this_o i_o know_v neither_o you_o nor_o m._n crofton_n will_v scruple_n at_o and_o this_o grant_v you_o must_v needs_o confess_v that_o the_o exception_n against_o the_o word_n holy_a as_o give_v to_o the_o table_n be_v only_o a_o strife_n about_o a_o word_n for_o indeed_o you_o allow_v the_o thing_n and_o all_o the_o thing_n which_o this_o word_n as_o apply_v to_o the_o table_n intend_v to_o signify_v 6._o neither_o can_v you_o reply_v that_o it_o be_v improper_a to_o call_v a_o table_n in_o this_o sense_n holy_a see_v you_o may_v easy_o know_v the_o church_n do_v not_o intend_v by_o call_v the_o table_n holy_a a_o proper_a but_o a_o figurative_a holiness_n or_o a_o holiness_n not_o inherent_a in_o the_o thing_n but_o predicate_v of_o it_o with_o respect_n to_o the_o end_n and_o use_v for_o which_o it_o be_v set_v apart_o which_o distinction_n i_o need_v not_o inform_v you_o have_v undeniable_a ground_n in_o scripture_n 7._o yet_o see_v you_o say_v you_o know_v no_o holiness_n of_o place_n under_o the_o gospel_n give_v i_o leave_v to_o remember_v you_o of_o the_o holy_a of_o all_o heb._n 9_o 3._o and_o that_o peculiar_a to_o the_o gospel-state_n the_o holy_a ghost_n signify_v that_o the_o way_n into_o the_o holy_a of_o all_o be_v not_o yet_o make_v manifest_a while_o the_o first_o tabernacle_n be_v yet_o stand_v v._o 8._o 8._o yea_o this_o seem_v to_o

over_o the_o house_n of_o god_n let_v we_o draw_v near_o with_o a_o true_a heart_n not_o forsake_v the_o assemble_v of_o ourselves_o together_o as_o the_o manner_n of_o some_o be_v heb._n 10._o 19_o
