among_o a_o great_a number_n of_o which_o these_o be_v some_o that_o the_o scripture_n can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o be_v no_o more_o to_o be_v credit_v than_o the_o write_n of_o man_n be_v not_o a_o divine_a but_o humane_a tradition_n that_o god_n have_v a_o hand_n in_o and_o be_v the_o author_n of_o the_o sinfulness_n of_o his_o people_n not_o of_o the_o action_n alone_o but_o of_o the_o very_a pravity_n which_o be_v in_o they_o and_o afterward_o that_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v mortal_a as_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o beast_n and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o resurrection_n at_o all_o of_o the_o body_n of_o man_n nor_o heaven_n nor_o hell_n after_o this_o life_n you_o may_v perceive_v hereby_o how_o such_o a_o liberty_n as_o this_o of_o maintain_v public_o whatsoever_o a_o man_n deprave_a fancy_n suggest_v to_o he_o can_v but_o tend_v to_o the_o great_a propagation_n of_o religion_n the_o edification_n of_o the_o people_n and_o glory_n of_o the_o church_n but_o what_o do_v they_o desire_v under_o this_o name_n of_o liberty_n of_o conscience_n or_o a_o toleration_n be_v it_o a_o free_a liberty_n to_o stick_v close_o to_o their_o old_a principle_n and_o continue_v in_o their_o profess_a opinion_n if_o this_o be_v it_o let_v they_o reflect_v upon_o those_o tenet_n that_o have_v be_v maintain_v among_o they_o and_o which_o i_o hear_v not_o as_o yet_o recant_v if_o these_o be_v destructive_a to_o government_n and_o tend_v to_o the_o uphold_v of_o rebellion_n it_o seem_v a_o little_a unreasonable_a for_o they_o to_o require_v a_o persistance_n in_o they_o what_o they_o be_v and_o how_o likely_a to_o produce_v loyal_a and_o peaceable_a effect_n will_v be_v a_o long_a work_n to_o show_v i_o shall_v only_o send_v you_o to_o a_o collection_n of_o many_o of_o they_o by_o a_o loyal_a and_o laborious_a subject_n of_o this_o nation_n l'estrange_n l'estrange_n where_o you_o may_v have_v a_o full_a view_n of_o the_o separatist_n opinion_n and_o where_o you_o be_v direct_v to_o their_o author_n be_v you_o may_v also_o find_v some_o of_o they_o in_o the_o sheet_n that_o come_v out_o at_o the_o burn_a of_o seditious_a libel_n in_o oxford_n the_o last_o year_n in_o both_o of_o which_o you_o may_v learn_v what_o it_o be_v that_o keep_v they_o in_o as_o good_a a_o posture_n as_o they_o be_v in_o at_o present_a and_o that_o if_o they_o have_v power_n proportionable_a to_o their_o desire_n to_o the_o augmentation_n of_o which_o such_o a_o toleration_n must_v necessary_o contribute_v much_o we_o shall_v have_v they_o fight_v the_o lord_n battle_n and_o try_v again_o to_o set_v king_n jesus_n upon_o his_o throne_n it_o be_v easy_o know_v who_o i_o mean_v and_o it_o be_v observable_a that_o there_o be_v never_o such_o oppression_n exercise_v over_o man_n conscience_n by_o christian_n as_o be_v by_o those_o who_o so_o much_o pretend_v to_o a_o abhorrence_n of_o ecclesiastical_a tyranny_n and_o who_o have_v not_o many_o year_n since_o be_v stickler_n for_o a_o toleration_n i_o shall_v not_o trouble_v myself_o with_o answer_v any_o of_o those_o late_a paper_n concern_v liberty_n of_o conscience_n neither_o weigh_v whether_o they_o be_v in_o the_o right_a when_o they_o say_v the_o great_a oppression_n they_o be_v under_o be_v pure_o for_o their_o religion_n nor_o confute_v that_o irrefragable_a argument_n in_o case_n of_o hypocrisy_n to_o which_o man_n shall_v be_v force_v if_o they_o comply_v with_o we_o nor_o examine_v what_o one_o of_o they_o say_v concern_v qu._n elizabeth_n time_n conceive_v that_o none_o of_o these_o belong_v to_o my_o purpose_n my_o intent_n be_v only_o to_o hint_n at_o the_o unreasonableness_n of_o their_o desire_n and_o the_o dangerous_a consequence_n that_o will_v ensue_v upon_o it_o i_o will_v only_o desire_v to_o know_v of_o they_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o better_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o we_o to_o be_v unite_v than_o to_o widen_v our_o breach_n i_o believe_v none_o be_v such_o a_o enemy_n to_o peace_n but_o will_v at_o least_o grant_v i_o this_o if_o so_o we_o beseech_v they_o to_o use_v such_o mean_n as_o may_v conduce_v to_o it_o they_o be_v easy_a enough_o to_o man_n of_o unbiased_a affection_n and_o unprejudiced_a spirit_n that_o be_v friend_n to_o peace_n and_o desirer_n of_o unity_n the_o case_n be_v plain_a and_o brief_a the_o constitution_n of_o our_o church_n be_v know_v and_o wherein_o dissenter_n differ_v from_o we_o our_o request_n therefore_o to_o they_o be_v that_o they_o will_v lay_v open_a the_o reason_n why_o they_o desire_v such_o a_o unbrother_o separation_n from_o we_o but_o we_o also_o desire_v they_o to_o avoid_v repetition_n and_o that_o they_o produce_v not_o argument_n answer_v long_o ago_o unless_o they_o give_v their_o reply_v to_o they_o we_o desire_v they_o with_o unprejudiced_a affection_n to_o peruse_v the_o late_a write_n of_o our_o minister_n in_o defence_n of_o our_o church_n and_o to_o acquaint_v we_o wherein_o their_o reason_n be_v deficient_a and_o unfatisfy_a let_v this_o be_v do_v with_o a_o christian_a spirit_n and_o a_o desire_n that_o their_o judgement_n may_v be_v rectify_v in_o all_o thing_n and_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o god_n who_o be_v not_o the_o god_n of_o confusion_n but_o of_o unity_n who_o be_v the_o author_n of_o peace_n and_o lover_n of_o concord_n will_v grant_v we_o a_o remedy_n for_o these_o sore_n that_o we_o need_v not_o enter_v upon_o action_n of_o utter_a desperation_n finis_fw-la
