A96143	The judgement set, and the bookes opened. Religion tried whether it be of God or of men. The Lord cometh to visit his own, for the time is come that judgement must begin at the house of God. To separate the sheep from the goats. and the precious from the vile. And to discover the blasphemy of those that say, they are apostles, teachers, alive, rich, Jewes, but are found lyars. Deceivers. Dead. Poore, blind, naked. The synagogue of Satan. In severall sermons at Alhallows Lumbard-street, by John Webster, a servant of Christ and his church.	Webster, John, 1610-1682.	1654 (1654)	Wing W1210; Thomason E805_13; ESTC R207390	257,953	337

and_o ordain_v minister_n and_o they_o speak_v of_o give_v the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o alas_o i_o say_v all_o these_o be_v but_o resemblance_n and_o shadow_n they_o be_v not_o the_o true_a ordinance_n

to_o make_v they_o happy_a and_o the_o like_a because_o hell_n they_o hear_v be_v a_o terrible_a place_n and_o full_a of_o horror_n and_o destruction_n and_o heaven_n be_v a_o place_n of_o peace_n

communion_n of_o saint_n which_o man_n so_o much_o talk_v of_o and_o know_v so_o little_a life_n you_o know_v be_v only_o in_o union_n when_o we_o come_v to_o that_o that_o the_o root_n bear_v we_o and_o not_o we_o the_o root_n for_o so_o it_o be_v with_o most_o professor_n in_o the_o world_n they_o altogether_o bear_v the_o root_n they_o think_v they_o must_v work_v and_o do_v and_o act_n and_o prune_v and_o water_n and_o cherish_v and_o plant_v and_o pull_v up_o and_o maintain_v their_o spiritual_a life_n and_o communion_n and_o hereby_o they_o make_v themselves_o the_o root_n and_o so_o upon_o that_o account_n they_o bear_v the_o root_n and_o not_o the_o root_n they_o and_o hence_o we_o may_v know_v &_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n though_o they_o be_v accurse_v and_o bear_v no_o fruit_n to_o god_n but_o leaf_n which_o must_v be_v cut_v down_o and_o cast_v into_o the_o fire_n and_o shall_v be_v cut_v
