A49183	An apology for the ministers who subscribed only unto the stating of the truths and errours in Mr. William's book shewing, that the Gospel which they preach, is the old everlasting Gospel of Christ, and vindicating them from the calumnies, wherewith they (especially the younger sort of them) have been unjustly aspersed by the letter from a minister in the city, to a minister in the countrey.	Lorimer, William, d. 1721.	1694 (1694)	Wing L3073; ESTC R22599	321,667	222

1._o it_o be_v not_o true_a but_o false_a that_o the_o brethren_n be_v for_o a_o new_a sort_n of_o divinity_n and_o despise_v or_o neglect_v the_o old_a the_o falsehood_n of_o this_o have_v be_v

whole_a of_o our_o divinity_n or_o religion_n be_v ground_v upon_o divine_a revelation_n and_o as_o divinity_n or_o religion_n be_v either_o natural_a or_o supernatural_a so_o divine_a revelation_n

by_o the_o law_n and_o light_n of_o nature_n within_o we_o and_o by_o his_o work_n of_o creation_n and_o common_a providence_n without_o we_o we_o hope_v our_o author_n be_v not_o so_o ignorant_a as_o not_o to_o know_v nor_o so_o perverse_a as_o to_o deny_v what_o in_o his_o conscience_n he_o know_v to_o be_v true_a and_o then_o for_o supernatural_a divinity_n and_o religion_n our_o christian_a religion_n consider_v as_o christian_a and_o as_o contradistinguish_v from_o all_o other_o religion_n be_v of_o that_o kind_n it_o be_v proper_o supernatural_a and_o can_v never_o have_v be_v know_v

what_o be_v say_v of_o this_o may_v be_v say_v of_o the_o rest_n so_o that_o when_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o salvation_n as_o annex_v to_o any_o one_o thing_n it_o suppose_v that_o to_o

one_o be_v saving_o there_o be_v all_o in_o their_o respective_a place_n as_o far_o as_o they_o be_v to_o be_v in_o relation_n to_o salvation_n thus_o you_o see_v that_o faith_n as_o well_o as_o
