A96893	Inquiries into the causes of our miseries, whence they issue-forth upon us: and reasons wherefore they have born us down so low; and are like to carrie us yet lower. The Independents and the way of worship, they stand-up for, is renderd clear of this grievous charge... This charge is drawn-up against the Independents, by three worthies, men, I think, of name, all (I) D.P.P.W. Pryn Esquire; but more fully and with more devouring words, if more can be, by Dr. A. Steuart in his last book... In six sections. Whereof the first onely is here; a just vindication of the way of worship very commonly misunderstood; very falsly interpreted; but very truly called Independent... By Hez.

after_o the_o spirit_n so_o they_o that_o be_v after_o the_o flesh_n persecute_v the_o first_o father_n patriarch_n prophet_n and_o apostle_n all_o the_o saint_n and_o army_n of_o martyr_n upward_o

independent_a in_o judgement_n my_o soul_n go_v out_o with_o they_o in_o that_o way_n with_o they_o persuade_v in_o my_o soul_n that_o their_o aim_n be_v whole_o to_o the_o set_n up_o the_o lord_n christ_n he_o in_o all_o his_o office_n in_o and_o over_o the_o church_n in_o the_o soul_n and_o spirit_n of_o man_n and_o that_o their_o eye_n be_v single_a in_o all_o this_o look_v strait-on_a to_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o high_a god_n and_o salvation_n of_o soul_n 2_o and_o that_o independency_n be_v no_o more_o nor_o any_o more_o intend_a by_o it_o then_o pure_o to_o take_v themselves_o and_o other_o off_o from_o their_o own_o bottom_n that_o all_o may_v be_v set_v upon_o the_o foundation_n indeed_o the_o rock_n of_o age_n the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n 3_o and_o all_o this_o so_o as_o they_o give_v the_o ruler_n of_o the_o people_n their_o stand_n firm_a fast_o and_o unshaken_a like_o the_o perpetual_a hill_n and_o everlasting_a mountain_n a_o fast-standing_a i_o say_v while_o the_o world_n stand_v in_o their_o full_a power_n force_n and_o virtue_n for_o no_o law_n or_o ordinance_n have_v they_o against_o this_o the_o ruler_n stand_v be_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n appoint_v and_o decree_v by_o himself_o 4_o for_o that_o way_n of_o worship_n and_o church-government_n my_o judgement_n stand_v for_o i_o be_o very_o persuade_v it_o be_v the_o way_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n new_a if_o you_o will_v but_o no_o more_o novel_a than_o be_v that_o testament_n 5_o for_o their_o walk_n in_o that_o way_n it_o be_v in_o such_o order_n with_o such_o agreement_n comply_v of_o spirit_n such_o a_o eye_v and_o fix_v upon_o the_o rule_n what_o be_v decent_a and_o expedient_a what_o serve_v most_o apt_o tend_v most_o compendious_o to_o promote_v the_o edification_n the_o building-up_a of_o the_o temple_n of_o christ_n that_o i_o have_v this_o persuasion_n that_o they_o who_o have_v observe_v the_o way_n and_o the_o brethren_n walk_v in_o it_o will_v speak_v of_o it_o in_o the_o apostle_n word_n joy_v and_o behold_v your_o order_n and_o your_o steadfastness_n 5._o col._n 2._o 5._o of_o your_o faith_n in_o christ_n true_o sir_n my_o judgement_n be_v for_o that_o way_n of_o government_n god_n way_n i_o be_o very_o persuade_v as_o for_o man_n way_n master_n or_o discipline_n my_o judgement_n be_v not_o for_o it_o further_o than_o as_o they_o walk_v in_o the_o way_n with_o a_o right_a foot_n nor_o for_o their_o gather_n of_o church_n further_o than_o as_o they_o do_v it_o by_o the_o call_n of_o the_o word_n so_o as_o man_n may_v not_o be_v say_v to_o do_v it_o but_o god_n rather_o by_o the_o call_n of_o his_o spirit_n and_o word_n of_o his_o truth_n nor_o be_v my_o judgement_n for_o man_n scatterning_n in_o the_o way_n though_o there_o will_v be_v scatter_n there_o let_v those_o scatterer_n be_v mark_v and_o rebuke_v sharp_o for_o they_o shall_v walk_v exact_o all_o about_o they_o in_o sight_n clothes_n gesture_n and_o all_o from_o without_o they_o in_o the_o eye_n and_o ear_n of_o man_n their_o word_n and_o action_n shall_v be_v vocal_a all_o as_o we_o say_v speak_v forth_o holiness_n to_o the_o lord_n grace_n and_o edification_n to_o the_o hearer_n and_o beholder_n but_o yet_o if_o man_n walk_v as_o man_n scatter_v their_o way_n yet_o these_o their_o scatter_n must_v not_o cast_v a_o reproach_n upon_o the_o holiness_n of_o god_n way_n after_o which_o my_o soul_n go_v forth_o and_o yet_o my_o foot_n my_o stand_n i_o mean_v be_v in_o the_o other_o way_n whereof_o my_o thought_n have_v be_v ever_o honourable_a as_o become_v so_o of_o my_o minister_n also_o one_o that_o fear_v god_n above_o many_o set_v over_o i_o in_o that_o way_n of_o church_n government_n i_o reverence_v he_o hearty_o i_o approve_v his_o care_n and_o acknowledge_v his_o aim_n and_o end_n to_o be_v holy_a just_a and_o good_a the_o glory_n of_o god_n the_o eternal_a good_a of_o soul_n a._n what_o and_o yet_o your_o judgement_n for_o the_o other_o way_n sure_o look_v what_o way_n the_o judgement_n go_v your_o foot_n shall_v go_v where_o your_o heart_n can_v fix_v there_o your_o stand_n shall_v be_v b._n true_o it_o may_v be_v a_o truth_n in_o what_o you_o say_v but_o i_o be_o not_o resolve_v so_o for_o first_o i_o stand_v not_o alone_o but_o together_o with_o a_o whole_a household_n with_o i_o in_o several_a relation_n to_o all_o these_o as_o a_o husband_n a_o father_n a_o master_n and_o true_o i_o dare_v not_o attribute_v so_o much_o to_o my_o judgement_n or_o to_o a_o way_n i_o think_v more_o excellent_a as_o to_o fit_v loose_a from_o my_o reverend_a pastor_n or_o remove_v myself_o and_o i_o for_o i_o can_v allow_v of_o a_o draggle_a family_n the_o head_n go_v one_o way_n and_o the_o other_o part_n another_o way_n i_o say_v myself_o and_o i_o from_o under_o his_o care_n and_o charge_n who_o i_o know_v the_o lord_n have_v set_v to_o look_v and_o see-ove_a i_o and_o i_o 2_o i_o stand_v still_o in_o my_o spirit_n resolve_v there_o that_o see_v by_o a_o good_a providence_n two_o party_n have_v so_o eager_o clash_v together_o and_o so_o charge_v themselves_o and_o before_o their_o god_n to_o find_v out_o the_o way_n of_o god_n both_o of_o they_o i_o hope_v with_o pure_a aim_n and_o a_o single_a eye_n i_o be_o at_o a_o agreement_n with_o my_o thought_n that_o the_o good_a lord_n will_v beatforth_o and_o make_v plain_a his_o own_o way_n so_o as_o what_o lay_v too_o loose_a and_o scatter_v in_o the_o one_o way_n shall_v be_v gathered-up_a and_o strengthen_v and_o what_o may_v be_v too_o high_a and_o rough_a in_o the_o other_o way_n may_v be_v take_v down_o and_o make_v more_o level_v smooth_a and_o strait_a for_o we_o to_o walk_v in_o i_o mean_v and_o i_o be_o full_a of_o hope_n so_o it_o will_v be_v that_o there_o will_v be_v by_o the_o good_a hand_n of_o god_n upon_o his_o servant_n notwithstanding_o their_o charge_v and_o recharge_v a_o sweet_a compliauce_n anon_o a_o yield_a and_o bend_v each_o to_o other_o way_n as_o near_o as_o can_v be_v keep_v near_o and_o close_o to_o the_o word_n and_o as_o be_v become_a brethren_n hold_v the_o unity_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o bond_n of_o peace_n i_o stand_v still_o in_o my_o spirit_n and_o full_a of_o hope_n touch_v this_o matter_n the_o meeting_n of_o both_o these_o way_n inone_o the_o good_a and_o holy_a way_n though_o true_o i_o can_v conceive_v wherein_o the_o independent_n can_v yield_v one_o foot_n or_o one_o hoof_n of_o a_o foot_n for_o they_o must_v be_v dainty_a if_o not_o imperious_a in_o god_n matter_n except_o in_o point_n of_o power_n a_o high_a point_n that_o where_o and_o in_o who_o it_o must_v be_v state_v state_n it_o where_o they_o will_v for_o i_o know_v they_o will_v state_n it_o as_o near_o as_o possible_o they_o can_v look_v to_o the_o mind_n and_o will_v of_o their_o god_n in_o his_o scripture_n but_o i_o will_v not_o have_v that_o which_o the_o scripture_n call_v the_o key_n entrust_v in_o our_o hand_n common_a people_n for_o true_o what_o ever_o we_o think_v we_o know_v yet_o be_v it_o a_o point_n of_o knowledge_n too_o high_a for_o we_o to_o know_v how_o to_o use_v they_o yet_o i_o can_v speak_v much_o more_o in_o the_o commendation_n of_o we_o layman_n than_o i_o can_v for_o the_o clergyman_n for_o when_o we_o be_v at_o the_o worst_a we_o be_v better_a than_o our_o teacher_n not_o
