A79501	Mr. John Child's book, entituled a second argument, for a more full and firm union amongst all good Protestants wherein the nonconformists taking the sacrament after the manner of the Church of England, is justified. The root and foundation of the Popish plot further discovered in a letter to a friend. Now republished upon the occasion of his disperation and fatal end: which book (as he hath often declared) was the occasion off [sic] it. Entred according to order.	Child, John, 1638?-1684.	1684 (1684)	Wing C3849; ESTC R231293	8,579	8

if_o she_o be_v no_o church_n at_o all_o than_o these_o two_o dangerous_a consequent_n will_v follow_v 1._o that_o the_o best_a people_n in_o the_o world_n who_o profess_v the_o true_a god_n and_o the_o true_a saviour_n the_o true_a rule_n viz._n the_o holy_a scripture_n the_o two_o sacrament_n at_o least_o in_o the_o name_n and_o order_n of_o they_o and_o who_o have_v make_v a_o agreement_n to_o own_o defend_v and_o stand_v by_o all_o the_o necessary_a article_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n which_o be_v the_o only_a foundation_n of_o the_o true_a church_n i_o say_v then_o such_o a_o

2._o as_o such_o a_o sentiment_n must_v needs_o be_v a_o contradiction_n to_o such_o a_o supposition_n so_o it_o conclude_v that_o there_o be_v no_o church_n at_o all_o for_o if_o a_o people_n under_o such_o qualification_n be_v no_o church_n than_o there_o can_v be_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o a_o true_a church_n in_o the_o world_n for_o the_o sectary_n can_v be_v a_o true_a church_n because_o either_o they_o have_v make_v no_o solemn_a covenant_n with_o god_n and_o one_o with_o another_o which_o be_v the_o only_a right_a basis_n and_o foundation_n of_o a_o church_n state_n or_o if_o they_o have_v it_o can_v be_v better_a than_o that_o already_o set_v forth_o and_o then_o the_o same_o cause_n issuse_n in_o the_o same_o effect_n and_o that_o the_o sectary_n be_v the_o true_a church_n of_o god_n and_o no_o other_o i_o can_v yet_o be_v well_o satisfy_v because_o the_o great_a number_n of_o they_o do_v hold_v principle_n dangerous_o heretical_a and_o most_o abominable_o abusive_a of_o the_o most_o holy_a and_o bless_a god_n such_o as_o indeed_o do_v no_o less_o in_o their_o direct_a consequence_n than_o un-god_n he_o by_o make_v of_o he_o the_o great_a author_n of_o mischief_n in_o

heaven_n be_v to_o abide_v and_o as_o firm_o fasten_v to_o the_o high_a station_n in_o glory_n to_o which_o they_o be_v design_v as_o be_v the_o chief_a order_n of_o angles_n and_o if_o any_o of_o the_o other_o part_n viz._n the_o not_o elect_a shall_v plead_v for_o god_n vindicate_v his_o name_n defend_v his_o sovereignty_n and_o maintain_v his_o honour_n to_o the_o last_o end_n of_o their_o
