be_v not_o this_o your_o case_n for_o 1._o you_o affirm_v that_o all_o man_n that_o have_v true_a prevalent_a love_n to_o god_n be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o grace_n and_o have_v right_a to_o salvation_n

difference_n very_o our_o difference_n here_o in_o england_n and_o the_o neighbour_n protestant_n church_n have_v show_v in_o we_o much_o personal_a peevishness_n unskilfulness_n and_o other_o fault_n but_o in_o my_o judgement_n they_o be_v such_o as_o great_o commend_v our_o real_a concord_n in_o the_o same_o religion_n and_o partly_o our_o conscience_n in_o value_v it_o and_o be_v loath_a to_o lose_v it_o if_o you_o see_v latin_a grammarian_n revile_v one_o another_o about_o the_o spell_a or_o pronunciation_n of_o a_o word_n or_o two_o and_o critical_o contend_v with_o varro_n gellius_n etc._n etc._n which_o be_v the_o right_n when_o a_o man_n that_o never_o know_v a_o word_n of_o latin_a but_o welsh_a or_o irish_a never_o strive_v about_o such_o question_n in_o his_o life_n which_o of_o these_o will_v you_o think_v have_v more_o agreement_n in_o their_o language_n i_o will_v say_v that_o those_o man_n that_o disagree_v but_o about_o the_o pronunciation_n of_o a_o few_o word_n be_v very_o much_o agree_v in_o comparison_n of_o a_o barbarian_a that_o agree_v not_o with_o they_o in_o a_o sentence_n or_o a_o word_n even_o the_o old_a schoolman_n be_v in_o language_n more_o agree_v with_o erasmus_n faber_n hutten_n and_o other_o critical_a grammarian_n that_o deride_v they_o than_o any_o illiterate_a man_n be_v with_o any_o of_o they_o all_o gruterus_n his_o volume_n of_o grammatical_a controversy_n show_v not_o so_o much_o distance_n in_o language_n as_o the_o peaceable_a silence_n of_o a_o unlearned_a man_n do_v and_o no_o one_o strive_v much_o about_o that_o which_o he_o do_v not_o much_o care_n for_o countryman_n can_v contemptuous_o laugh_v at_o logical_a dispute_n or_o criticism_n horse_n or_o ox_n will_v not_o strive_v with_o we_o for_o our_o gold_n or_o jewel_n clothes_n or_o food_n as_o we_o do_v with_o one_o another_o and_o yet_o they_o be_v not_o so_o like_v we_o in_o the_o estimation_n of_o such_o thing_n as_o we_o be_v to_o one_o another_o when_o i_o hear_v religious_a person_n contentious_o censure_v each_o other_o about_o some_o little_a point_n of_o ceremony_n order_n discipline_n or_o form_n which_o be_v but_o the_o fimbria_fw-la or_o the_o welt_n and_o lace_n of_o religion_n i_o be_o angry_a at_o their_o weakness_n and_o defect_n of_o love_n but_o i_o must_v needs_o think_v that_o there_o be_v very_o great_a concord_n in_o the_o faith_n and_o religion_n objective_n of_o these_o man_n who_o differ_v about_o no_o great_a matter_n than_o such_o as_o these_o if_o man_n that_o be_v build_v a_o palace_n will_v fall_v

child_n whip_v for_o their_o folly_n and_o frowardness_n till_o they_o be_v quiet_a the_o great_a thing_n that_o protestant_n have_v paltry_o wrangle_v about_o be_v 1._o the_o doctrinal_a controversy_n call_v arminian_n 2._o and_o the_o matter_n of_o discipline_n and_o ceremony_n the_o former_a i_o have_v show_v late_o in_o a_o large_a volume_n have_v much_o more_o of_o verbal_a than_o of_o real_a difference_n and_o be_v cherish_v by_o the_o ambiguity_n of_o word_n and_o the_o unskilfulness_n of_o too_o many_o to_o discuss_v those_o ambiguity_n and_o find_v out_o exact_o the_o true_a state_n of_o the_o controversy_n it_o be_v oft_o but_o stubble_n that_o make_v the_o great_a blaze_n and_o as_o for_o the_o other_o i_o will_v not_o undervalue_v the_o least_o thing_n of_o religion_n but_o i_o will_v say_v that_o engagement_n faction_n and_o worldly_a interest_n be_v magnify_v glass_n to_o many_o man_n and_o make_v a_o mote_n to_o seem_v a_o beam_n and_o a_o gnat_n to_o seem_v a_o camel_n and_o it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o devil_n old_a wiles_n to_o keep_v man_n from_o learning_n of_o christ_n how_o to_o worship_v the_o father_n of_o spirit_n in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n by_o start_v such_o question_n as_o whether_o in_o this_o mountain_n or_o at_o jerusalem_n man_n ought_v to_o worship_v and_o to_o hinder_v godly_a edify_n by_o dote_v about_o question_n that_o gender_n strife_n and_o fight_v for_o shoobuckle_n may_v show_v the_o quarrelsomness_n of_o man_n but_o it_o prove_v not_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o matter_n 2._o note_v further_o that_o though_o subjective_a religion_n the_o measure_n of_o our_o belief_n love_n and_o obedience_n be_v as_o various_a as_o person_n be_v yet_o the_o objective_a religion_n of_o all_o true_a protestant_n be_v the_o same_o not_o only_o the_o same_o in_o the_o essential_o one_o god_n one_o saviour_n and_o lord_n one_o baptismal_a covenant_n one_o creed_n one_o spirit_n one_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o one_o hope_n of_o glory_n eph._n 4._o 4_o 5_o 6._o but_o also_o the_o same_o in_o all_o the_o integral_a part_n for_o it_o be_v integral_o the_o holy_a scripture_n which_o contain_v all_o that_o they_o take_v with_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n to_o be_v the_o whole_a law_n of_o god_n and_o so_o the_o rule_n of_o divine_a faith_n desire_n and_o duty_n they_o may_v subjective_o have_v some_o difference_n in_o understand_v some_o text_n as_o the_o most_o learned_a and_o holy_a in_o the_o world_n have_v but_o objective_o they_o have_v no_o other_o divine_a faith_n or_o religion_n 3._o and_o note_v that_o the_o church_n that_o protestant_n yea_o greek_n armenian_n syrian_n abassine_n be_v of_o be_v all_o certain_o one_o and_o the_o same_o church_n for_o a_o church_n be_v constitute_v of_o the_o rule_v and_o the_o rule_v part_n and_o they_o perfect_o agree_v that_o christ_n be_v the_o only_o essentiate_v and_o universal_a head_n in_o he_o they_o all_o unite_v and_o confess_v that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o even_o the_o patriarch_n of_o constantinople_n as_o i_o have_v show_v claim_v but_o a_o primacy_n in_o the_o empire_n and_o not_o the_o government_n of_o all_o the_o world_n no_o not_o of_o we_o in_o england_n and_o as_o for_o the_o rule_v constitutive_a part_n we_o be_v agree_v that_o it_o be_v all_o baptise_a christian_n that_o have_v not_o apostatise_v nor_o forsake_v
