a_o vindication_n of_o the_o command_n and_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n jesus_n and_o of_o his_o people_n in_o their_o faithful_a obedience_n to_o he_o against_o all_o swearer_n and_o swear_v

say_v the_o lord_n jer._n 23.10.11.12_o now_o see_v the_o great_a controversy_n at_o this_o day_n between_o the_o false_a christian_n and_o the_o true_a namely_o the_o persecute_v power_n of_o this_o

which_o be_v matter_n of_o conscience_n the_o answer_n of_o which_o before_o god_n in_o the_o day_n of_o death_n be_v a_o man_n eternal_a condemnation_n or_o justification_n and_o salvation_n it_o therefore_o lie_v upon_o i_o at_o this_o time_n to_o vindicate_v the_o only_a right_n and_o propriety_n of_o christ_n jesus_n in_o the_o conscience_n of_o his_o people_n and_o also_o of_o his_o

whosoever_o transgress_v and_o abide_v not_o in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n have_v not_o god_n he_o that_o abide_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n he_o have_v both_o the_o father_n and_o

he_o that_o do_v abide_v in_o what_o christ_n have_v teach_v and_o teach_v have_v both_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n 3._o now_o the_o controversy_n be_v very_o great_a at_o this_o day_n between_o two_o sort_n of_o people_n in_o this_o nation_n of_o england_n about_o religious_a matter_n for_o which_o the_o one_o do_v persecute_v abuse_n imprison_v rob_v spoil_n &_o great_o oppress_v &_o afflict_v the_o other_o namely_o for_o conscience_n sake_n for_o abide_v in_o the_o doctrine_n &_o obey_v the_o command_n of_o christ_n let_v we_o therefore_o mark_v and_o try_v the_o difference_n of_o these_o people_n according_a to_o the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n which_o those_o persecutor_n themselves_o profess_v be_v their_o rule_n so_o by_o their_o own_o rule_n let_v they_o be_v try_v 4._o now_o the_o people_n who_o be_v thus_o persecute_v and_o abuse_v etc._n etc._n be_v such_o as_o abide_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n in_o that_o which_o he_o teach_v and_o teach_v for_o which_o they_o be_v persecute_v and_o have_v both_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n 2_o john_n 9_o and_o their_o persecutor_n and_o oppessor_n be_v such_o as_o break_v the_o command_n and_o abide_v

they_o god_n speed_n or_o side_n with_o they_o be_v partaker_n of_o their_o evil_a deed_n so_o they_o that_o have_v not_o god_n but_o be_v without_o god_n be_v the_o persecuter_n and_o afflicter_n of_o they_o that_o have_v both_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n let_v all_o people_n take_v notice_n of_o this_o and_o now_o be_v the_o scripture_n fulfil_v these_o thing_n will_v they_o do_v unto_o you_o for_o my_o name_n sake_n because_o they_o know_v not_o he_o that_o send_v i_o john_n 15.21_o etc._n etc._n 5._o now_o what_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n be_v or_o what_o he_o have_v teach_v or_o do_v teach_v his_o friend_n and_o disciple_n to_o do_v and_o to_o leave_v undo_v may_v be_v mention_v in_o many_o particulars_n but_o at_o present_a i_o may_v omit_v but_o what_o be_v in_o my_o

doctrine_n which_o he_o teach_v they_o not_o to_o swear_v at_o all_o may_v be_v easy_o prove_v yea_o though_o they_o be_v such_o oath_n and_o swear_v as_o be_v lawful_a and_o command_v in_o old_a
