A91881 John the Baptist, forerunner of Christ Iesvs: or, A necessity for liberty of conscience, as the only meanes under heaven to strengthen children weake in faith; to convince hereticks mis-led in faith; to discover the gospel to all such as yet never heard thereof; and establish peace betweene all states and people throughout the world; according unto which, were both our Saviours commission, and the apostles practice for the propagation of it peaceably: as appeares most evidently by sundry Scriptures digested into chapters, with some observations at the end of every one; most humbly devoted to the use and benefit of all such as are zealously inquisitive after truth; piously disposed to imbrace it, and constantly resolved to practice it in their lives and conversations; to the honour of God, the edifying of their brethren, and their owne salvation unto eternity. The contents of the chapters follow in the next leaf. This is licenced, but not permitted to be entred according to order.

church_n or_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n to_o put_v they_o to_o death_n the_o bless_a spirit_n will_v have_v contradict_v itself_o for_o how_o can_v they_o be_v and_o yet_o not_o be_v how_o can_v they_o live_v for_o manifestation_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o yet_o be_v put_v to_o death_n by_o the_o civil_a sword_n which_o possible_o may_v have_v be_v so_o soon_o as_o they_o begin_v to_o be_v heretic_n if_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n have_v but_o the_o power_n to_o do_v it_o and_o so_o they_o can_v not_o have_v live_v sufficient_o to_o manifest_v those_o which_o be_v approve_v some_o perhaps_o will_v object_v but_o if_o heretic_n and_o other_o spiritual_a offender_n do_v god_n such_o good_a service_n how_o can_v he_o in_o justice_n punish_v they_o hereafter_o or_o why_o be_v the_o angel_n of_o the_o church_n of_o thyatira_n blame_v for_o suffering_n jezabel_n the_o prophetess_n to_o seduce_v god_n people_n rev._n 2.20_o i_o answer_v that_o though_o the_o bless_a spirit_n say_v there_o must_v be_v heresy_n and_o offence_n yet_o at_o same_o time_n it_o say_v likewise_o woe_n to_o they_o by_o who_o they_o come_v mat._n 18_o 7._o and_o good_a christian_n will_v not_o doubt_v the_o equity_n thereof_o if_o they_o reflect_v but_o upon_o the_o scripture_n second_o the_o angel_n of_o the_o church_n of_o thyatira_n be_v not_o blame_v for_o not_o put_v jezabel_n to_o a_o civil_a death_n for_o first_o the_o church_n have_v no_o such_o commission_n from_o christ_n and_o second_o it_o have_v no_o power_n from_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n to_o execute_v it_o but_o as_o be_v say_v before_o the_o church_n be_v just_o tax_v in_o that_o jezabel_n be_v suffer_v to_o preach_v false_a doctrine_n incontrolable_o without_o examine_v of_o the_o doctrine_n and_o reprove_v she_o in_o that_o they_o permit_v she_o to_o seduce_v weak_a christian_n without_o cut_v she_o off_o by_o the_o sword_n of_o the_o spirit_n the_o power_n of_o excommunication_n for_o god_n require_v the_o church_n to_o be_v as_o diligent_a in_o exercise_v their_o spiritual_a weapon_n for_o convince_a and_o compel_v spiritual_o all_o heretic_n unto_o the_o truth_n as_o he_o do_v that_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n shall_v have_v cut_v off_o every_o adulterer_n and_o murderer_n only_o the_o difference_n be_v this_o that_o since_o the_o mean_n to_o be_v use_v against_o spiritual_a offender_n be_v spiritual_a such_o as_o will_v not_o be_v willing_o convince_v thereby_o but_o obstinate_o persist_v god_n pleasure_n be_v not_o that_o they_o be_v cut_v off_o by_o the_o civil_a sword_n as_o every_o

those_o which_o be_v approve_v and_o we_o by_o put_v they_o to_o a_o civil_a death_n do_v contradict_v this_o and_o many_o other_o such_o like_a scripture_n by_o endeavour_v to_o render_v they_o of_o no_o effect_n but_o lest_o any_o shall_v ask_v do_v not_o god_n then_o as_o much_o desire_n that_o heretic_n and_o all_o other_o spiritual_a offender_n shall_v be_v convince_v in_o demonstration_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o reduce_v unto_o the_o truth_n as_o that_o all_o murderer_n &_o adulterer_n shall_v have_v be_v put_v to_o death_n if_o so_o than_o one_o be_v to_o god_n as_o possible_a and_o easy_a as_o the_o other_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o all_o heretic_n may_v possible_o be_v convince_v and_o none_o leave_v for_o manifestation_n as_o be_v pretend_v of_o those_o which_o be_v approve_v i_o answer_v that_o god_n expect_v the_o church_n shall_v employ_v all_o spiritual_a mean_n and_o use_v as_o much_o diligence_n in_o convince_a and_o reduce_v they_o to_o the_o truth_n or_o else_o if_o they_o persist_v in_o cut_v they_o off_o from_o the_o communion_n of_o saint_n which_o be_v the_o spiritual_a death_n as_o he_o do_v that_o the_o magistrate_n shall_v put_v all_o murderer_n and_o adulterer_n unto_o a_o civil_a death_n and_o second_o as_o the_o spiritual_a punishment_n prevail_v only_o on_o such_o as_o be_v spiritual_a i_o mean_v on_o such_o as_o in_o time_n past_a be_v heretic_n like_o paul_n 1_o tim._n 1.13_o but_o now_o be_v ripe_a unto_o conversion_n so_o in_o consequence_n the_o obstinate_a and_o perverse_a who_o stop_v their_o ear_n at_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o charmer_n charm_v he_o never_o so_o well_o psal_n 58.5_o necessary_o persist_v unconvert_v be_v they_o which_o god_n will_v have_v still_o to_o enjoy_v their_o civil_a livelihood_n for_o the_o manifest_v of_o those_o which_o be_v approve_v but_o suppose_v it_o be_v christianity_n to_o put_v spiritual_a offender_n to_o death_n on_o what_o part_n of_o scripture_n will_v we_o ground_v it_o or_o whence_o can_v we_o deduce_v such_o law_n but_o they_o will_v prove_v ridiculous_a and_o be_v voydable_a by_o any_o heretic_n that_o scruple_n not_o to_o play_v the_o hypocrite_n and_o plead_v but_o as_o all_o delinquent_n do_v at_o the_o bar_n of_o civil_a justice_n in_o answer_v not_o guilty_a and_o that_o whatever_o he_o be_v heretofore_o he_o be_v now_o convert_v the_o lord_n say_v you_o shall_v take_v no_o satisfaction_n for_o the_o life_n of_o a_o murderer_n which_o be_v guilty_a of_o death_n but_o he_o shall_v sure_o be_v put_v to_o death_n numb_a 35.31_o and_o it_o be_v just_a with_o god_n so_o to_o do_v to_o require_v this_o civil_a death_n though_o the_o murderer_n shall_v afterward_o repent_v unfeigned_o and_o be_v absolve_v from_o eternal_a death_n as_o the_o good_a thief_n whilst_o be_v hang_v upon_o the_o cross_n luke_n 23.43_o but_o if_o any_o one_o die_v a_o heretic_n a_o spiritual_a offender_n of_o so_o heinous_a a_o nature_n as_o deserve_v eternal_a death_n there_o remain_v no_o redemption_n his_o civil_a and_o spiritual_a death_n be_v inseparable_a concomitant_n the_o former_a necessary_o imply_v the_o latter_a which_o be_v contrary_a to_o paul_n rule_n who_o require_v only_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o flesh_n that_o the_o soul_n may_v be_v save_v in_o the_o day_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n 1_o cor._n 5.5_o but_o as_o concern_v mere_a spiritual_a offender_n however_o you_o call_v they_o soule-murderer_n to_o serve_v up_o their_o punishment_n above_o god_n commandment_n at_o what_o time_n soever_o such_o a_o sinner_n repent_v he_o of_o his_o sin_n the_o lord_n forgive_v he_o and_o we_o be_v require_v to_o forgive_v he_o seventy_o time_n seven_o even_o as_o often_o as_o he_o shall_v offend_v we_o mat._n 18.22_o but_o suppose_v a_o convince_a heretic_n who_o go_v up_o the_o ladder_n cry_v out_o for_o mercy_n and_o say_v he_o be_v convince_v can_v any_o christian_a law_n deny_v he_o mercy_n who_o be_v then_o no_o more_o a_o heretic_n than_o ourselves_o as_o peter_n say_v can_v any_o man_n forbid_v water_n that_o these_o gentile_n shall_v not_o be_v baptize_v which_o have_v receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o well_o as_o we_o act._n 10.47_o a_o murderer_n though_o he_o repent_v he_o of_o his_o fault_n yet_o since_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o restore_v the_o murder_v to_o life_n again_o die_v a_o

until_o he_o be_v apprehend_v and_o bring_v again_o to_o the_o gallow_n where_o he_o than_o plead_v as_o hard_a for_o his_o second_o conversion_n or_o as_o often_o as_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n shall_v put_v he_o to_o it_o and_o i_o know_v no_o reason_n but_o that_o his_o reprivall_n must_v be_v as_o often_o grant_v he_o if_o it_o be_v to_o doom_n day_n to_o say_v he_o play_v the_o hypocrite_n only_o to_o save_v his_o life_n &_o that_o he_o be_v not_o real_o convert_v i_o answer_v that_o he_o can_v then_o possible_o be_v obstinate_a who_o both_o affirm_v himself_o not_o only_o to_o be_v willing_a but_o say_v also_o that_o he_o be_v real_o convert_v and_o we_o may_v no_o more_o judge_n of_o his_o conscience_n who_o for_o the_o present_a both_o affirm_v to_o believe_v the_o
