conscience_n this_o be_v the_o minister_n office_n not_o the_o magistrate_n in_o the_o apostle_n day_n when_o the_o church_n be_v most_o pure_a there_o be_v great_a difference_n in_o opinion_n and_o high_a contest_v among_o christian_n about_o day_n and_o meat_n rom._n 14.2.5_o 3.10_o now_o if_o all_o man_n be_v not_o of_o one_o opinion_n in_o those_o pure_a church_n what_o hope_n have_v the_o magistrate_n to_o avoid_v all_o difference_n in_o opinion_n in_o our_o church_n 2._o consider_v the_o obscurity_n of_o scripture_n in_o disputable_a point_n st._n peter_n say_v of_o st._n paul_n epistle_n some_o thing_n be_v hard_a to_o be_v understand_v 2_o pet._n 3.15_o 16._o and_o herewithal_o consider_v also_o that_o the_o wise_a man_n know_v but_o in_o part_n in_o this_o life_n and_o the_o holy_a man_n be_v sanctify_v but_o in_o part_n so_o as_o too_o often_o their_o judgement_n be_v blind_v by_o unmortified_a passion_n and_o affection_n now_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o the_o magistrate_n shall_v rectify_v all_o these_o by_o his_o sword_n the_o which_o unless_o he_o can_v rectify_v it_o be_v altogether_o in_o vain_a for_o he_o to_o attempt_v to_o bring_v all_o man_n to_o be_v of_o one_o mind_n and_o opinion_n 7._o argument_n in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n in_o the_o jewish_a nation_n many_o people_n be_v suffer_v to_o live_v under_o the_o authority_n of_o moses_n and_o the_o magistrate_n who_o be_v of_o different_a opinion_n from_o the_o most_o of_o the_o people_n for_o they_o have_v stranger_n among_o they_o who_o be_v no_o proselyte_n or_o of_o the_o jewish_a religion_n and_o yet_o they_o be_v not_o constrain_v by_o the_o magistrate_n to_o become_v proselyte_n for_o the_o text_n say_v if_o a_o strange_a will_n etc._n etc._n let_v he_o etc._n

and_o the_o passeover_n none_o though_o he_o do_v eat_v meat_n which_o the_o jew_n abhor_a to_o eat_v deut._n 14.21_o moses_n and_o the_o magistrate_n with_o aaron_n the_o high_a priest_n do_v all_o allow_n of_o this_o liberty_n and_o why_o then_o may_v not_o the_o king_n and_o magistrate_n with_o all_o the_o clergy_n allow_v of_o liberty_n of_o conscience_n in_o our_o day_n in_o matter_n disputable_a among_o christian_n 8._o argument_n if_o the_o king_n and_o magistrate_n under_o he_o will_v govern_v by_o st._n paul_n discipline_n than_o they_o must_v govern_v by_o the_o discipline_n of_o liberty_n of_o conscience_n the_o which_o i_o thus_o prove_v st._n paul_n say_v we_o which_o be_v strong_a aught_o to_o bear_v the_o infirmity_n of_o the_o weak_a and_o not_o to_o please_v ourselves_o rom._n 15.1_o and_o see_v gal._n 6.1_o 2._o and_o he_o rebuke_v the_o believe_a roman_n for_o that_o the_o strong_a despise_v the_o weak_a and_o the_o weak_a judge_v and_o condemn_v the_o strong_a rom_n 14.3_o 10.13_o now_o what_o other_o thing_n be_v this_o toleration_n of_o st._n paul_n and_o bear_v with_o the_o weak_a in_o matter_n of_o conscience_n but_o liberty_n of_o conscience_n and_o no_o other_o thing_n be_v signify_v by_o this_o that_o he_o will_v not_o have_v believer_n to_o despise_v one_o another_o or_o to_o judge_v and_o condemn_v one_o another_o for_o conscience_n sake_n and_o difference_n in_o judgement_n the_o difference_n in_o those_o day_n be_v about_o the_o ceremony_n of_o meat_n and_o drink_v and_o holiday_n rom._n 14._o now_o we_o have_v too_o many_o minister_n of_o impatient_a spirit_n who_o can_v endure_v st._n paul_n liberty_n of_o conscience_n and_o to_o use_v patience_n in_o bear_v with_o the_o weakness_n of_o other_o but_o like_o better_a of_o uncharitable_a persecution_n these_o have_v learn_v a_o evil_a art_n of_o aggravation_n by_o consequence_n to_o wyre-draw_a and_o draw_v blood_n from_o the_o opinion_n contrary_a to_o themselves_o and_o have_v draw_v the_o people_n to_o hate_v and_o despise_v the_o person_n of_o that_o opinion_n such_o minister_n if_o they_o have_v live_v in_o those_o day_n can_v with_o the_o high_a priest_n have_v make_v christ_n guilty_a of_o blasphemy_n mat._n 26.65_o and_o st._n paul_n and_o heretic_n act_v 24.14_o and_o these_o weak_a christian_n roman_n obstinate_a heretic_n for_o by_o their_o use_n of_o meat_n and_o day_n after_o christ_n be_v come_v they_o signify_v that_o christ_n be_v not_o come_v but_o expect_v to_o come_v as_o the_o heretical_a jew_n do_v at_o this_o day_n meat_n and_o day_n be_v type_n and_o shadow_n of_o christ_n to_o come_v colos_n 2.16_o 17._o now_o no_o doubt_n st._n paul_n have_v as_o sufficient_o instruct_v and_o convict_v these_o believe_a roman_n of_o their_o error_n as_o any_o minister_n in_o these_o our_o day_n can_v any_o man_n in_o his_o error_n yet_o st._n paul_n do_v not_o count_v they_o obstinate_a heretic_n nor_o by_o aggravation_n and_o consequence_n draw_v they_o to_o be_v guilty_a of_o heresy_n but_o it_o may_v be_v say_v to_o i_o of_o these_o different_a opinion_n among_o we_o which_o party_n be_v the_o weak_a and_o which_o the_o strong_a i_o answer_v to_o determine_v infallible_o i_o can_v i_o must_v leave_v it_o for_o christ_n to_o do_v it_o at_o his_o come_n 1_o cor._n 4.4_o 5._o i_o shall_v only_o answer_v by_o the_o opinion_n of_o our_o time_n the_o multitude_n and_o great_a number_n countenance_v by_o the_o king_n will_v think_v themselves_o the_o strong_a if_o so_o then_o say_v i_o those_o strong_a one_o must_v bear_v with_o those_o that_o be_v weak_a and_o differ_v in_o opinion_n from_o they_o rom._n 15.1_o if_o the_o presbyterian_a think_v himself_o the_o strong_a he_o must_v bear_v with_o the_o weak_a independent_a or_o if_o the_o independent_a think_v himself_o the_o strong_a he_o must_v bear_v with_o the_o weak_a presbyterian_a and_o so_o of_o other_o opinionist_n we_o must_v all_o bear_v one_o with_o another_o gal._n 6.2_o and_o so_o by_o a_o mutual_a toleration_n we_o shall_v live_v in_o love_n like_o christian_n so_o far_o of_o my_o 8._o argument_n thus_o i_o have_v make_v it_o appear_v that_o the_o king_n and_o parliament_n may_v maintain_v liberty_n of_o conscience_n and_o aught_o so_o to_o do_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o now_o i_o come_v to_o answer_v sundry_a objection_n raise_v against_o this_o truth_n object_n 1._o if_o the_o magistrate_n tolerate_v liberty_n of_o conscience_n thereby_o he_o shall_v justify_v embolden_v and_o harden_v some_o in_o their_o error_n answ_n 1._o st._n paul_n tolerate_v liberty_n of_o conscience_n and_o yet_o it_o will_v not_o follow_v that_o he_o do_v thereby_o justify_v embolden_v and_o harden_v the_o weak_a believer_n in_o their_o error_n 2._o the_o magistrate_n have_v no_o authority_n from_o god_n to_o punish_v any_o for_o a_o disputable_a error_n as_o have_v be_v prove_v and_o therefore_o no_o blame_n be_v in_o he_o he_o can_v reform_v that_o which_o be_v not_o in_o his_o power_n to_o reform_v 3._o he_o have_v no_o infallible_a guide_n to_o know_v which_o side_n be_v in_o the_o error_n how_o then_o can_v he_o punish_v any_o 4._o if_o any_o harden_v their_o heart_n in_o error_n because_o it_o be_v tolerate_v themselves_o shall_v answer_v to_o god_n for_o it_o at_o the_o appear_v of_o christ_n the_o judge_n of_o quick_a and_o dead_a rom._n 14.10_o 12._o object_n 2._o yea_o but_o if_o the_o magistrate_n tolerate_v error_n he_o tolerate_v sin_n many_o say_v to_o tolerate_v error_n be_v to_o tolerate_v sin_n answ_n 1._o sin_n be_v the_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n 1_o john_n 3_o 4._o now_o in_o disputable_a point_n no_o opinionist_n desire_v liberty_n to_o break_v god_n law_n as_o to_o commit_v idolatry_n to_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n to_o commit_v adultery_n to_o steal_v or_o deal_v fraudulent_o or_o to_o do_v any_o thing_n contrary_a to_o a_o light_n clear_o reveal_v now_o in_o a_o disputable_a point_n no_o man_n can_v say_v for_o certain_a which_o be_v the_o sin_n and_o which_o not_o but_o suppose_v some_o man_n can_v say_v for_o certain_a his_o be_v the_o sin_n yet_o st._n paul_n do_v tolerate_v the_o sin_n of_o ignorance_n t_o rom._n 14._o in_o weak_a christian_n 2._o toleration_n be_v voluntary_a or_o necessary_a now_o the_o magistrate_n toleration_n be_v necessary_a because_o god_n have_v not_o give_v they_o authority_n as_o have_v be_v prove_v to_o punish_v disputable_a sin_n object_n 3._o some_o say_v there_o can_v be_v but_o one_o truth_n and_o one_o true_a religion_n now_o to_o maintain_v sundry_a and_o many_o opinion_n be_v to_o maintain_v sundry_a and_o many_o religion_n answ_n the_o question_n be_v not_o about_o maintain_v of_o sundry_a opinion_n which_o be_v disputable_a but_o about_o toleration_n and_o bear_n with_o they_o so_o as_o they_o may_v be_v free_a of_o punishment_n the_o magistrate_n
