tell_v you_o what_o a_o snare_n be_v lay_v for_o you_o all_o in_o mr._n bagshaw_n write_n and_o as_o one_o that_o have_v no_o interest_n but_o christ_n and_o the_o church_n to_o move_v he_o to_o it_o to_o tell_v you_o how_o great_a the_o danger_n be_v if_o you_o swallow_v the_o bait_n 1._o if_o he_o prevail_v with_o you_o he_o will_v draw_v you_o into_o the_o guilt_n of_o all_o those_o sin_n of_o his_o own_o forementioned_a by_o your_o approbation_n &_o consent_n and_o how_o great_a a_o addition_n will_v that_o be_v to_o your_o load_n 2._o it_o will_v draw_v you_o to_o the_o entertainment_n of_o all_o those_o love-killing_a malignant_a and_o divide_v principle_n which_o i_o cast_v down_o and_o he_o set_v up_o and_o you_o little_o know_v what_o a_o evil_a it_o be_v to_o have_v a_o understanding_n so_o blind_v and_o a_o heart_n so_o defile_v 3._o by_o this_o mean_v that_o true_a universal_a love_n to_o godly_a man_n and_o christian_n as_o such_o will_v be_v destroy_v and_o when_o you_o shall_v bear_v god_n image_n who_o be_v love_n itself_o you_o will_v be_v make_v like_o satan_n the_o enemy_n of_o god_n and_o love_n and_o instead_o of_o love_v your_o neighbour_n as_o yourself_o you_o will_v take_v your_o neighbour_n yea_o christ_n member_n for_o your_o enemy_n 4._o and_o as_o love_n be_v the_o fulfil_n of_o the_o law_n so_o your_o death_n of_o love_n will_v be_v the_o death_n of_o all_o your_o true_a obedience_n and_o lead_v you_o to_o the_o breach_n of_o every_o law_n you_o will_v deny_v all_o the_o act_n of_o love_n in_o word_n or_o deed_n to_o other_o that_o you_o owe_v they_o to_o you_o will_v censure_v you_o will_v backbite_v free_o you_o will_v receive_v false_a report_n and_o vend_v they_o again_o to_o other_o and_o christ_n may_v say_v to_o you_o inasmuch_o as_o you_o do_v it_o not_o to_o one_o of_o the_o least_o mark_v the_o least_o of_o these_o my_o brethren_n you_o do_v it_o not_o to_o i_o 5._o you_o will_v be_v tempt_v into_o

and_o false_a kind_n of_o religion_n consist_v in_o siding_n and_o partial_a opinion_n and_o obey_v yourselves_o instead_o of_o god_n 7._o and_o it_o will_v make_v you_o satan_n instrument_n to_o

church-communion_n will_v be_v corrupt_v instead_o of_o holy_a and_o heavenly_a sermon_n prayer_n praise_n etc._n etc._n you_o will_v be_v infect_v with_o a_o contend_v and_o envy_v passion_n and_o puff_v up_o with_o the_o conceit_n of_o your_o own_o judgement_n and_o grow_v zealous_a for_o your_o personal_a opinion_n and_o your_o party_n and_o turn_v your_o preach_n and_o pray_v into_o a_o

prayer_n which_o you_o shun_v 9_o and_o if_o you_o be_v thus_o overcome_v it_o will_v heinous_o aggravate_v your_o sin_n that_o you_o will_v do_v all_o this_o as_o a_o part_n of_o your_o religion_n and_o so_o will_v father_n it_o all_o on_o god_n as_o if_o such_o do_v please_v he_o and_o proceed_v from_o his_o spirit_n and_o be_v command_v by_o his_o word_n and_o as_o matth._n 12._o it_o be_v make_v the_o unpardonable_a sin_n to_o blaspheme_v the_o holy_a ghost_n by_o ascribe_v his_o miracle_n to_o satan_n so_o though_o it_o be_v pardonable_a you_o shall_v easy_o see_v that_o it_o can_v
