you_o and_o i_o hope_v before_o we_o have_v do_v i_o shall_v find_v you_o of_o a_o more_o charitable_a temper_n and_o do_v hope_v we_o shall_v better_o agree_v for_o i_o delight_v not_o in_o the_o

thought_n of_o we_o and_o you_o ought_v to_o put_v on_o if_o you_o be_v the_o elect_a of_o god_n bowel_n of_o mercy_n and_o yet_o let_v we_o conntend_v earnest_o for_o the_o faith_n deliver_v to_o the_o saint_n and_o that_o faith_n let_v we_o stick_v and_o stand_v by_o it_o be_v but_o some_o hot_a spirit_n that_o will_v not_o come_v to_o the_o touch_n that_o have_v make_v all_o those_o difference_n among_o we_o that_o be_v second_o in_o matter_n of_o the_o church_n you_o say_v they_o disagree_v well_o this_o be_v a_o point_n of_o conscience_n and_o we_o can_v agree_v with_o your_o church_n in_o this_o for_o they_o hold_v a_o form_n of_o prayer_n and_o we_o a_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n and_o this_o be_v a_o point_n to_o be_v clear_v church-m_a why_o it_o be_v clear_a enough_o the_o apostle_n command_v that_o prayer_n and_o supplication_n be_v make_v for_o all_o man_n mark_v the_o word_n he_o make_v and_o if_o make_v who_o shall_v they_o be_v make_v by_o but_o by_o the_o holy_a man_n of_o the_o church_n dissen_n well_o i_o grant_v the_o apostle_n do_v say_v so_o but_o what_o do_v the_o same_o apostle_n say_v pray_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o pray_v with_o understanding_n now_o if_o by_o the_o spirit_n not_o by_o a_o form_n for_o if_o you_o go_v by_o form_n you_o tie_v up_o the_o spirit_n to_o that_o form_n beside_o the_o apostle_n bid_v we_o walk_v as_o you_o have_v we_o for_o a_o example_n now_o if_o he_o have_v intend_v a_o form_n of_o prayer_n will_v not_o he_o have_v give_v we_o the_o example_n now_o if_o i_o must_v follow_v a_o form_n i_o must_v have_v the_o example_n of_o the_o apostle_n for_o it_o and_o also_o the_o same_o that_o they_o have_v if_o any_o man_n receive_v any_o thing_n in_o the_o woship_n of_o god_n more_o than_o god_n have_v institute_v and_o command_v by_o the_o apostle_n let_v he_o be_v accurse_v and_o do_v not_o your_o church_n make_v the_o common_a paryer_n a_o tradition_n in_o the_o church_n and_o teach_v it_o for_o a_o doctrine_n nay_o do_v not_o they_o say_v it_o be_v more_o sin_n to_o neglect_v that_o than_o it_o be_v to_o neglect_v a_o sermon_n from_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o they_o show_v it_o plain_o for_o if_o a_o man_n come_v to_o the_o sermon_n and_o not_o to_o the_o prayer_n they_o will_v nevertheless_o excommunicate_v they_o from_o communion_n church-m_a you_o require_v a_o example_n of_o the_o apostle_n well_o i_o will_v give_v you_o the_o example_n of_o their_o lord_n and_o master_n when_o you_o pray_v say_v our_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n etc._n etc._n i_o hope_v this_o will_v convince_v you_o that_o a_o form_n be_v lawful_a and_o so_o end_v the_o controversy_n short_o dissen_n now_o you_o say_v well_o and_o here_o i_o must_v fall_v if_o i_o can_v stand_v i_o acknowledge_v christ_n do_v give_v this_o form_n but_o we_o must_v consider_v two_o thing_n first_o the_o reason_n why_o this_o prayer_n be_v give_v second_o the_o time_n when_o it_o be_v give_v and_o first_o the_o reason_n why_o because_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v like_o the_o heathen_a which_o in_o a_o form_n use_v long_a prayer_n to_o be_v see_v of_o man_n and_o therefore_o our_o saviour_n tell_v thom_n when_o you_o pray_v let_v it_o be_v in_o secret_a another_o reason_n be_v because_o as_o yet_o they_o have_v not_o the_o knowledge_n of_o prayer_n according_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n second_o the_o time_n when_o the_o prayer_n be_v give_v it_o be_v when_o the_o apostle_n be_v young_a and_o they_o have_v not_o receive_v the_o holy_a spirit_n which_o our_o saviour_n tell_v they_o shall_v lead_v they_o into_o all_o truth_n so_o that_o then_o it_o be_v very_o necessary_a that_o they_o may_v know_v what_o to_o pray_v for_o but_o as_o in_o the_o type_n of_o the_o law_n when_o the_o antitype_n appear_v the_o type_n vanish_v so_o now_o when_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n appear_v to_o lead_v into_o a_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n the_o form_n of_o prayer_n must_v cease_v now_o christ_n tell_v they_o as_o though_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v i_o give_v you_o now_o a_o form_n of_o prayer_n that_o you_o may_v know_v how_o to_o pray_v that_o so_o you_o may_v be_v find_v in_o your_o duty_n till_o i_o go_v and_o then_o i_o will_v send_v you_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n and_o that_o shall_v direct_v you_o into_o truth_n without_o a_o form_n and_o beside_o when_o the_o holy_a ghost_n come_v down_o like_o cleave_a tongue_n in_o the_o day_n of_o penticost_n do_v you_o think_v it_o come_v with_o a_o form_n beside_o if_o our_o saviour_n have_v intend_v form_n will_v he_o not_o have_v give_v more_o and_o see_v he_o have_v give_v no_o more_o how_o dare_v you_o use_v more_o if_o it_o be_v law_n full_o see_v the_o apostle_n say_v let_v he_o be_v accurse_v that_o add_v or_o diminish_v beside_o you_o make_v the_o spirit_n of_o no_o effect_n for_o if_o christ_n have_v say_v he_o will_v give_v his_o spirit_n to_o they_o that_o ask_v and_o that_o that_o spirit_n shall_v lead_v into_o all_o truth_n and_o yet_o you_o will_v not_o trust_v to_o that_o spirit_n to_o lead_v you_o do_v not_o you_o tell_v our_o lord_n that_o you_o will_v not_o believe_v he_o nor_o his_o spirit_n but_o will_v rather_o pray_v by_o the_o example_n of_o man_n then_o by_o that_o spirit_n and_o so_o you_o make_v it_o of_o no_o effect_n tell_v you_o or_o your_o minister_n of_o a_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n and_o do_v not_o they_o make_v a_o laugh_v and_o a_o scoff_n at_o it_o oh_o for_o shame_n away_o with_o this_o spirit_n church-m_a well_o i_o see_v you_o think_v yourself_o wise_a than_o all_o the_o father_n of_o our_o church_n but_o a_o man_n in_o his_o own_o wisdom_n may_v fall_v what_o then_o do_v you_o say_v that_o our_o prayer_n be_v not_o
