gospel_n and_o the_o promise_n thereof_o to_o all_o ingenerall_n for_o their_o conversion_n yet_o they_o may_v not_o apply_v promise_n of_o ●he_n remission_n of_o sin_n of_o christ_n satisfaction_n

and_o be_v out_o ward_o so_o unblameable_a that_o none_o of_o the_o apostle_n do_v discern_v he_o to_o be_v the_o traitor_n which_o our_o saviour_n sal●_n shall_v betray_v he_o but_o they_o suspect_v

be_v discharge_v if_o he_o give_v warning_n of_o the_o danger_n to_o they_o that_o come_v unworthy_o as_o paul_n do_v 1_o cor._n 11._o for_o give_v of_o warning_n free_v he_o ezech._n 33.4_o acts._n 2.26_o ans_fw-fr i_o answer_v that_o admonition_n be_v a_o part_n but_o not_o all_o the_o duty_n of_o the_o minister_n paul_n be_v absent_a can_v write_v of_o the_o danger_n but_o not_o put_v any_o back_n unless_o he_o have_v be_v present_a it_o be_v enough_o to_o make_v the_o pastor_n in_o corinth_n to_o suspend_v scandalous_a sinner_n in_o that_o he_o tell_v they_o that_o the_o unworthy_a receiver_n do_v eat_v judgement_n to_o himself_o and_o profained_a the_o lord_n body_n and_o that_o every_o man_n must_v first_o sift_v and_o examine_v himself_o and_o then_o come_v and_o eat_v which_o scandalous_a impenitent_a sinner_n do_v not_o and_o therefore_o be_v not_o to_o be_v admit_v in_o this_o case_n it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o minister_n to_o warn_v man_n of_o sin_n &_o danger_n unless_o they_o have_v power_n to_o keep_v they_o back_o do_v use_v it_o and_o hinder_v they_o at_o least_o from_o open_a act_n of_o sin_n it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o a_o man_n to_o tell_v one_o that_o be_v desperate_a that_o if_o he_o run_v upon_o the_o draw_a sword_n which_o he_o hold_v before_o he_o in_o his_o hand_n it_o will_v kill_v he_o but_o he_o must_v pull_v back_o his_o sword_n and_o not_o thrust_v it_o into_o his_o bowel_n when_o he_o see_v he_o run_v upon_o the_o point_n of_o it_o and_o must_v put_v he_o by_o with_o all_o his_o might_n or_o else_o he_o be_v guilty_a of_o murder_n and_o so_o it_o be_v in_o this_o case_n the_o minister_n that_o give_v to_o a_o scandalous_a impenitent_a sinner_n that_o which_o he_o know_v to_o be_v deadly_a poison_n to_o his_o soul_n be_v guilty_a and_o partaker_n of_o his_o sin_n obj._n 4_o the_o gospel_n be_v a_o holy_a thing_n and_o be_v to_o many_o the_o savour_n of_o death_n and_o yet_o must_v be_v preach_v unto_o all_o man_n even_o to_o they_o who_o it_o harden_v to_o destruction_n ans_fw-fr it_o be_v true_a that_o out_o of_o charity_n minister_n propound_v the_o gospel_n to_o all_o in_o hope_n to_o

preach_v to_o they_o as_o i_o have_v before_o prove_v by_o our_o saviour_n own_o word_n in_o brief_a this_o objection_n be_v a_o arrow_n shoot_v against_o christ_n himself_o for_o he_o say_v give_v not_o holy_a thing_n to_o dog_n but_o this_o objector_n affirm_v that_o preach_v of_o the_o gospel_n be_v the_o holy_a thing_n of_o which_o christ_n there_o speak_v and_o that_o we_o must_v preach_v it_o to_o wicked_a man_n who_o be_v dog_n so_o call_v for_o their_o uncleanness_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v not_o in_o this_o command_n obey_v christ_n that_o be_v the_o issue_n of_o this_o objection_n but_o i_o have_v cut_v this_o knot_n asunder_o before_o and_o so_o leave_v the_o shame_n to_o the_o objector_n i_o add_v only_o one_o word_n more_o that_o by_o extraordinary_a revelation_n and_o special_a warrant_n from_o god_n moses_n and_o aaron_n do_v speak_v god_n word_n to_o phar●●h_n and_o isaiah_n to_o the_o jew_n which_o the_o know_v will_v harden_v they_o ex._n 7.3_o isa_n 6.10_o this_o be_v no_o warrant_n for_o we_o unless_o we_o have_v like_o revelation_n obj._n 5_o god_n only_o know_v the_o secret_n of_o man_n heart_n and_o minister_n can_v judge_v certain_o who_o be_v worthy_a receiver_n therefore_o they_o must_v not_o usurp_v power_n to_o determine_v man_n unworthiness_n to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n god_n may_v change_v man_n heart_n in_o a_o moment_n before_o minister_n can_v take_v notice_n ans_fw-fr it_o be_v true_a that_o hypocrite_n may_v deceive_v minister_n by_o seem_a holiness_n and_o may_v be_v admit_v not_o by_o the_o fault_n of_o the_o minister_n who_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o search_v into_o god_n secret_n nor_o to_o judge_v of_o the_o hide_a disposition_n and_o state_n of_o man_n soul_n but_o a_o open_a scandalous_a sinner_n be_v know_v to_o all_o who_o believe_v god_n word_n to_o be_v unworthy_a worthy_a and_o judge_v unworthy_a of_o the_o holy_a communion_n and_o keep_v from_o it_o while_o he_o be_v open_o incorrigible_a in_o this_o case_n we_o be_v not_o to_o dispute_v of_o god_n power_n but_o what_o be_v god_n will_n and_o that_o be_v not_o to_o give_v holy_a thing_n to_o such_o as_o be_v manifest_o unclean_a like_o dog_n as_o all_o scandalous_a impenitent_a sinner_n be_v for_o the_o present_a it_o be_v hard_o to_o be_v believe_v that_o god_n will_v bless_v a_o graceless_a and_o presumptuous_a act_n of_o sin_n with_o a_o holy_a change_n of_o heart_n in_o a_o moment_n if_o man_n do_v murder_v their_o soul_n and_o drink_v their_o own_o damnation_n they_o shall_v bear_v their_o own_o burden_n but_o if_o minister_n put_v this_o damn_v cup_n into_o their_o hand_n and_o bid_v they_o drink_v of_o it_o their_o blood_n shall_v be_v require_v of_o they_o because_o they_o embolden_v they_o and_o act_v with_o

they_o not_o be_v admit_v in_o case_n they_o profess_v sincere_a repentance_n and_o promise_v newness_n of_o life_n for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v answer_n no_o minister_n of_o christ_n will_v in_o
