A85329	Londons gate to the Lords Table. Where the eldership doth sit doing their office aright, in discovering and shutting out the ignorant, prophane, and meere civill honest man : in suspending the suspected formall, legall, and antinomisticall professor, and in drawing in the weakest humble beleeving soule. In a dialogue betweene a minister of the Gospell. Alexander an ignorant prophane man. Simon a proud professor. And Matthias an humble penitent. Imprimatur Edmund Calamy.	Fisher, Edward, fl. 1627-1655.	1646 (1646)	Wing F995; Thomason E1213_1; ESTC R210120	58,722	302

in_o this_o city_n be_v for_o if_o i_o be_v not_o mistake_v their_o very_a speech_n and_o behaviour_n do_v testify_v that_o because_o they_o know_v and_o do_v more_o than_o they_o do_v conceive_v

or_o betwixt_o your_o conscience_n &_o your_o lust_n you_o do_v in_o your_o judgement_n conceive_v these_o course_n to_o be_v evil_a because_o of_o the_o evil_a effect_n that_o follow_v they_o and_o therefore_o your_o conscience_n tell_v you_o that_o you_o do_v evil_a in_o commit_v they_o and_o you_o think_v it_o be_v good_a for_o you_o to_o leave_v they_o because_o of_o the_o punishment_n that_o

have_v be_v before_o impute_v unto_o he_o for_o his_o justification_n sim._n sir_n i_o grant_v it_o that_o a_o man_n may_v think_v he_o do_v believe_v when_o he_o do_v not_o and_o therein_o deceive_v himself_o because_o that_o he_o can_v see_v his_o faith_n but_o i_o think_v a_o man_n shall_v not_o think_v he_o live_v a_o godly_a and_o righteous_a course_n of_o life_n when_o he_o do_v not_o because_o that_o be_v to_o be_v see_v min._n o_o but_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o as_o there_o be_v a_o form_n of_o faith_n without_o the_o power_n of_o faith_n which_o cause_v the_o apostle_n to_o pray_v

of_o his_o own_o acquire_v and_o so_o be_v but_o a_o acquire_v faith_n and_o not_o a_o infuse_a faith_n even_o so_o this_o form_n of_o godliness_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o godliness_n of_o a_o
