A91475	Good tydings for sinners, great ioy for saints; or, A word to the world, and two to those that are chosen out of the world. Wherein is held forth, first, the sweet tenders of grace from the father through the son to all dejected sinners; he invites them, he woes them, he intreats them, nay, he beseecheth them to accept of mercy. In the second part of this book, called, Two words to those chosen out of the world, is spoken to the saints under their severall forms, taking notice first of the things commendable in them: and in the second place reproving them for things amisse among them. With a short prophesie of the downfall of presbyterie, independencie, anabaptismie, vaine notions, free-will. With a brief description of a true church-state, against which the gates of Hell shall not prevaile; it being founded upon a rock, it will stand against all waves and storms, that either men or devils can raise against it. I will give you all one heart, and one way. Then the Lord shall be one, and his name one. / Robert Purnell.

why_o you_o see_v so_o little_a fruit_n of_o all_o your_o labour_n you_o preach_v so_o much_o yet_o do_v so_o little_a good_a you_o do_v not_o do_v god_n work_v in_o his_o own_o way_n you_o preach_v and_o contend_v for_o order_n and_o scarce_o be_v any_o in_o the_o kingdom_n more_o out_o of_o your_o order_n than_o yourselves_o in_o a_o word_n you_o require_v good_a fruit_n from_o a_o corrupt_a

will_v say_v we_o have_v do_v no_o evil_n we_o have_v preach_v christ_n according_a to_o our_o commission_n then_o my_o friend_n never_o fear_v to_o have_v it_o question_v but_o i_o beseech_v you_o if_o any_o can_v object_v against_o what_o you_o have_v teach_v so_o he_o do_v it_o in_o the_o spirit_n of_o meekness_n rather_o to_o find_v out_o truth_n then_o to_o carp_v at_o truth_n and_o see_v

your_o say_n seem_v the_o more_o worthy_a serious_a and_o sober_a consideration_n o_o that_o i_o can_v see_v the_o minister_n of_o england_n as_o willing_a to_o be_v teach_v as_o they_o be_v to_o be_v teacher_n as_o swift_a to_o hear_v as_o to_o speak_v true_o this_o be_v a_o way_n to_o untie_v the_o great_a thing_n we_o want_v in_o our_o kingdom_n 3._o when_o you_o have_v exalt_v christ_n alone_o and_o diligent_o observe_v his_o commission_n next_o i_o beseech_v you_o be_v tender_a of_o his_o lamb_n and_o feed_v they_o and_o so_o much_o the_o rather_o because_o they_o be_v yet_o stand_v in_o
