we_o be_v to_o consider_v that_o warning_n be_v to_o be_v give_v not_o only_o general_o in_o the_o public_a ministry_n of_o the_o word_n where_o sin_n and_o sinner_n be_v to_o be_v reprove_v and_o particular_a sin_n and_o sinner_n also_o be_v to_o be_v speak_v to_o though_o nominal_o we_o be_v not_o to_o single_a out_o the_o person_n but_o more_o particular_o where_o the_o irregularity_n of_o individual_n know_v to_o we_o do_v appear_v there_o a_o more_o special_a express_a and_o personal_a warning_n be_v require_v and_o first_o such_o be_v particular_o and_o in_o a_o friendly_a manner_n to_o be_v admonish_v now_o this_o be_v to_o be_v do_v private_o seasonable_o thorough_o affectionate_o in_o meekness_n and_o without_o partiality_n first_o privately_z a_o word_n whisper_v in_o the_o ear_n may_v so_o affect_v the_o heart_n as_o gracious_o to_o lead_v it_o captive_a whereas_o a_o more_o open_a warning_n which_o may_v expose_v to_o public_a shame_n by_o render_v notorious_a what_o before_o be_v hide_v or_o conceive_v to_o be_v so_o do_v sometime_o harden_v the_o heart_n and_o cause_v the_o sinner_n stubborn_o to_o start_v aside_o therefore_o it_o be_v wisdom_n that_o our_o first_o address_n in_o warn_v the_o unruly_a of_o his_o way_n be_v in_o a_o friendly_a manner_n private_a this_o be_v the_o counsel_n of_o our_o lord_n christ_n and_o the_o rule_n which_o he_o have_v leave_v in_o such_o case_n unto_o his_o church_n if_o thy_o brother_n say_v he_o shall_v trespass_v against_o thou_o go_v and_o tell_v he_o his_o fault_n between_o thou_o and_o he_o alone_o 18.15_o

the_o transgressor_n may_v not_o know_v of_o its_o notoriety_n and_o suspect_v nothing_o less_o than_o that_o it_o be_v make_v public_a he_o may_v think_v that_o it_o be_v hide_v from_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o world_n as_o it_o be_v from_o the_o light_n of_o the_o day_n in_o the_o commission_n of_o it_o or_o as_o it_o veil_v at_o least_o from_o his_o own_o apprehension_n for_o so_o do_v the_o deceitfulness_n of_o sin_n blindfold_a the_o sinner_n now_o if_o the_o first_o address_n for_o warning_n have_v attendant_a witness_n the_o transgressor_n be_v thus_o accost_v will_v look_v upon_o it_o as_o a_o sudden_a onset_n and_o will_v be_v so_o far_o from_o give_v entertainment_n to_o you_o as_o his_o friend_n that_o he_o will_v suspect_v you_o as_o secret_a enemy_n combine_v to_o pick_v advantage_n or_o at_o least_o as_o publisher_n of_o his_o shame_n and_o so_o turn_v away_o from_o you_o become_v more_o harden_v in_o his_o sin_n therefore_o say_v our_o lord_n christ_n tell_v he_o his_o fault_n between_o thou_o and_o he_o alone_o do_v this_o office_n of_o love_n to_o thy_o brother_n when_o thou_o and_o he_o shall_v be_v alone_o such_o private_a monition_n may_v sink_v deep_a
