A33894	A word in season to all in authority with weighty considerations what persons, practices, and things doth chiefly cause division and contention, rending of kingdoms, and distresse of nations : as also a plain discovery of those things and that ministry that will bring blessings and unity, with deliverance from bondage into liberty, and instead of strife, wars, and fighting, righteousnesse, reconciliation and peace in the land of our nativity / published by J.C.

with_o it_o and_o after_o this_o manner_n have_v nation_n country_n kingdom_n and_o government_n be_v pluck_v up_o and_o now_o i_o appeal_v to_o any_o unbiassed-man_n who_o understanding_n be_v any_o thing_n open_a whether_o these_o thing_n and_o much_o more_o that_o may_v be_v speak_v of_o this_o nature_n be_v not_o true_a and_o whether_o the_o man_n call_v minister_n be_v at_o any_o time_n with_o any_o government_n all_o satisfy_v and_o whether_o their_o side_a do_v not_o lead_v people_n to_o side_n and_o whether_o there_o have_v be_v any_o war_n in_o a_o nation_n and_o the_o ministry_n so_o call_v have_v not_o the_o chief_a hand_n in_o it_o and_o whether_o after_o one_o party_n be_v worsted_n they_o be_v not_o the_o first_o that_o comply_v to_o that_o person_n or_o government_n which_o before_o they_o may_v preach_v it_o damnable_a to_o join_v with_o and_o whether_o they_o be_v not_o the_o most_o treacherous_a perfidious_a changeable_a deceitful_a people_n of_o any_o sort_n of_o man_n and_o whether_o the_o ground_n of_o all_o this_o be_v not_o the_o large_a maintenance_n which_o be_v settle_v upon_o the_o office_n and_o so_o a_o law_n to_o force_v it_o this_o make_v they_o afraid_a on_o the_o one_o hand_n lest_o such_o a_o party_n will_v pluck_v it_o down_o and_o so_o stir_v up_o strife_n among_o the_o other_o because_o they_o will_v hold_v it_o up_o and_o when_o that_o party_n can_v hold_v no_o long_o than_o they_o be_v the_o first_o that_o turn_v to_o the_o other_o because_o they_o may_v be_v by_o they_o hold_v up_o for_o if_o they_o may_v be_v hold_v up_o there_o be_v no_o fear_n but_o to_o make_v they_o or_o the_o most_o of_o they_o of_o any_o religion_n that_o the_o power_n will_v establish_v as_o be_v manifest_o see_v in_o the_o time_n of_o edward_n the_o 6_o and_o queen_n mary_n and_o elizabeth_n where_o many_o turn_v from_o be_v protestant_n to_o papist_n and_o from_o papist_n to_o protestant_n and_o in_o our_o day_n from_o the_o commonprayer_n to_o the_o directory_n and_o from_o the_o directory_n to_o the_o commonprayer_n and_o this_o be_v well_o know_v the_o same_o that_o preach_v up_o a_o king_n for_o a_o maintenance_n preach_v up_o a_o commonwealth_n for_o a_o maintenance_n and_o a_o protector_n for_o a_o maintenance_n and_o now_o a_o king_n for_o a_o maintenance_n and_o so_o i_o say_v again_o it_o be_v altogether_o inconsistent_a with_o the_o safety_n of_o the_o people_n and_o well-being_n of_o the_o ruler_n or_o ruler_n the_o uphold_v or_o maintain_v a_o ministry_n by_o a_o force_a maintenance_n so_o than_o the_o way_n to_o preserve_v the_o people_n in_o peace_n and_o safety_n and_o the_o government_n in_o security_n from_o danger_n and_o to_o establish_v it_o be_v this_o to_o give_v unto_o every_o judgement_n so_o call_v toleration_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o his_o worship_n towards_o god_n and_o that_o every_o society_n congregation_n or_o judgement_n among_o themselves_o maintain_v their_o own_o ministry_n in_o and_o after_o what_o manner_n themselves_o can_v or_o shall_v agree_v among_o themselves_o and_o maintain_v their_o place_n of_o worship_n themselves_o among_o themselves_o so_o no_o one_o sort_n of_o people_n shall_v be_v burden_v nor_o their_o spirit_n grieve_v and_o vex_v by_o another_o but_o this_o in_o this_o particular_a fulfil_v the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n in_o do_v as_o they_o will_v be_v do_v by_o for_o the_o conscience_n of_o every_o individual_a man_n and_o woman_n ought_v to_o be_v free_a unto_o god_n and_o none_o to_o have_v or_o claim_v lordship_n over_o another_o

they_o they_o be_v keep_v in_o peace_n and_o their_o conscience_n free_a and_o so_o this_o every_o sort_n of_o people_n if_o they_o do_v but_o once_o taste_v a_o while_n all_o people_n will_v delight_v therein_o especial_o those_o who_o fear_v god_n and_o can_v be_v injurious_a nor_o seek_v the_o hurt_n of_o their_o neighbour_n and_o here_o every_o one_o may_v sit_v under_o his_o own_o

the_o heart_n that_o if_o it_o be_v put_v in_o practice_n all_o mouth_n will_v be_v stop_v and_o envy_n dare_v not_o open_v her_o mouth_n and_o strife_n will_v cease_v and_o love_n and_o unity_n among_o people_n will_v grow_v and_o increase_v and_o the_o revengeful_a murderous_a nature_n among_o people_n will_v be_v starve_v and_o die_v within_o they_o because_o they_o will_v want_v the_o

and_o here_o none_o but_o such_o who_o in_o conscience_n and_o zeal_n towards_o god_n will_v be_v minister_n for_o there_o be_v many_o who_o be_v now_o call_v by_o a_o great_a maintenance_n will_v then_o be_v without_o a_o call_n to_o preach_v for_o this_o sort_n of_o man_n do_v no_o good_a at_o all_o to_o people_n who_o labour_v for_o their_o belly_n who_o do_v they_o turn_v from_o the_o evil_a of_o their_o way_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a they_o be_v so_o perfidious_a and_o changeable_a preach_v up_o so_o much_o faction_n and_o division_n according_a to_o their_o several_a fancy_n that_o they_o cause_v people_n to_o be_v truce-breaker_n for_o whatsoever_o government_n come_v that_o will_v serve_v their_o interest_n and_o will_v do_v what_o they_o will_v have_v they_o kill_v who_o they_o will_v kill_v and_o save_v alive_a those_o who_o they_o will_v save_v alive_a that_o be_v preach_v up_o but_o if_o any_o sort_n or_o faction_n of_o they_o be_v not_o countenance_v as_o that_o they_o can_v be_v for_o one_o must_v go_v down_o if_o the_o other_o go_v up_o then_o they_o set_v themselves_o against_o that_o authority_n and_o secret_o begin_v to_o smite_v and_o so_o the_o

that_o hold_v it_o up_o and_o thus_o the_o people_n under_o they_o be_v carry_v by_o they_o for_o now_o be_v it_o not_o that_o there_o be_v so_o large_a a_o maintenance_n settle_v upon_o they_o by_o a_o law_n which_o yet_o depend_v upon_o authority_n they_o will_v not_o be_v such_o meddler_n with_o authority_n and_o cause_v such_o rent_n and_o division_n among_o people_n but_o because_o they_o be_v still_o in_o fear_n of_o lose_v that_o or_o that_o authority_n will_v countenance_v those_o who_o they_o fear_v but_o if_o the_o law_n be_v take_v away_o that_o force_v the_o maintenance_n than_o
