A87595	A sober word to a serious people: or, A moderate discourse respecting as well the Seekers, (so called) as the present churches. Wherein the difference between them touching visible administrations, is discovered and discussed: and may serve as a plea for the nations ministery. / By a lover of truth and peace.

these_o two_o be_v the_o grand_a and_o capital_a and_o comprehensive_a institution_n and_o appointment_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n unto_o which_o he_o give_v gift_n for_o the_o perfect_a of_o the_o saint_n but_o whether_o the_o present_a ministry_n and_o the_o present_a church_n be_v those_o ordinance_n of_o his_o which_o he_o then_o institute_v and_o appoint_v and_o not_o rather_o something_o like_o they_o or_o instead_o of_o they_o be_v the_o matter_n in_o question_n the_o person_n call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o seeker_n have_v compare_v they_o with_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o not_o

that_o this_o ground_n and_o reason_n be_v not_o without_o reason_n somewhat_o be_v to_o be_v add_v by_o way_n of_o demonstration_n and_o evidence_n there_o have_v not_o be_v want_v those_o which_o
