christ_n banner_n of_o love_n set_a up_o to_o call_v all_o christian_n to_o serve_v in_o love_n and_o unity_n under_o it_o but_o especial_o direct_v to_o the_o saint_n of_o both_o kingdom_n walk_v in_o love_n as_o christ_n have_v love_v we_o london_n print_v for_o john_n wright_n at_o the_o king_n head_n in_o the_o old_a bayley_n 1648._o christ_n banner_n of_o love_n it_o be_v never_o enough_o to_o be_v lament_v that_o when_o christ_n have_v make_v love_n the_o very_a character_n and_o badge_n of_o his_o disciple_n those_o that_o will_v be_v call_v christian_n that_o be_v the_o disciple_n of_o christ_n be_v far_o from_o that_o wherein_o this_o discipleship_n do_v especial_o consist_v one_o apostle_n have_v name_v some_o chief_a grace_n and_o virtue_n say_v but_o the_o great_a of_o these_o be_v love_n and_o in_o another_o place_n above_o all_o these_o thing_n put_v on_o love_n which_o be_v the_o bond_n of_o perfectness_n and_o another_o apostle_n above_o all_o thing_n have_v fervent_a love_n among_o yourselves_o but_o how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v then_o that_o when_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n set_v up_o love_n above_o all_o thing_n we_o see_v so_o many_o thing_n set_v up_o above_o love_n yea_o we_o see_v love_n destroy_v for_o little_a thing_n which_o be_v better_o than_o all_o thing_n yea_o when_o love_n by_o unite_n will_v mutual_o preserve_v the_o saint_n they_o by_o hatred_n and_o contention_n will_v destroy_v both_o love_n and_o themselves_o yet_o the_o same_o evil_a spirit_n that_o move_v to_o this_o destroy_n by_o hatred_n and_o division_n preserve_v his_o own_o kingdom_n by_o unity_n and_o though_o his_o deprave_a nature_n be_v contrary_a to_o true_a love_n yet_o his_o craft_n so_o far_o overrule_v or_o at_o least_o guide_v his_o malice_n that_o he_o hold_v unity_n for_o our_o ruin_n and_o his_o own_o preservation_n but_o christian_n who_o divine_a nature_n be_v especial_o make_v up_o of_o love_n run_v hasty_o and_o heady_o into_o hatred_n and_o division_n and_o thus_o do_v they_o go_v contrary_a to_o the_o divine_a nature_n wherein_o be_v the_o virtue_n of_o the_o dove_n and_o the_o wisdom_n commend_v in_o the_o

lay_v scatter_v under_o sundry_a difference_n and_o be_v it_o not_o then_o to_o counter-worke_n against_o christ_n great_a plot_n and_o mystery_n of_o godliness_n by_o small_a difference_n to_o

be_v not_o he_o more_o to_o be_v love_v for_o be_v a_o member_n of_o christ_n then_o to_o be_v hate_v for_o that_o difference_n yea_o if_o christ_n do_v love_n and_o forgive_v he_o how_o dare_v thou_o to_o hate_v he_o who_o christ_n love_v have_v thou_o see_v any_o warrant_n in_o scripture_n to_o give_v thou_o authority_n to_o hate_v a_o member_n of_o christ_n who_o agree_v with_o christ_n by_o
