A48863	The harmony between the old and present non-conformists principles in relation to the terms of conformity, with respect both to the clergie, and the people : wherein a short history of the original of the English liturgy, and some reasons why several truly conscientious Christians cannot joyn with the church in it : humbly presented to publick consideration in order to the obtaining some necessary relaxation and indulgence : to which are added some letters that pass'd between the Lord Cecil, and Arch-bishop Whitgift.	Lobb, Stephen, d. 1699.; Whitgift, John, 1530?-1604.; Burghley, William Cecil, Baron, 1520-1598.	1682 (1682)	Wing L2726; ESTC R23045	77,527	105

acknowledge_v it_o that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n who_o have_v institute_v a_o ministry_n and_o make_v it_o the_o peculiar_a work_n of_o some_o man_n in_o special_a to_o preach_v the_o word_n not_o only_o for_o conversion_n of_o sinner_n but_o for_o the_o edisication_n of_o the_o convert_v for_o the_o help_n and_o benefit_n of_o who_o there_o be_v institute_v not_o the_o ordinance_n of_o baptism_n alone_o but_o that_o of_o the_o lord_n supper_n which_o be_v design_v for_o the_o strength_n and_o increase_n of_o grace_n in_o christian_n i_o say_v this_o lord_n jesus_n who_o have_v so_o gracious_o institute_v a_o ministry_n and_o ordinance_n have_v make_v it_o the_o duty_n of_o christian_n to_o assemble_v themselves_o together_o to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o blessing_n of_o his_o institution_n and_o ordinance_n and_o such_o be_v the_o relation_n between_o minister_n and_o people_n that_o be_v between_o a_o gospel_n minister_n and_o a_o orderly_a christian_a assembly_n that_o the_o one_o can_v be_v without_o the_o other_o neither_o can_v the_o one_o ordinary_o perform_v some_o relational_a duty_n but_o in_o a_o assembly_n with_o the_o other_o and_o therefore_o must_v assemble_v themselves_o together_o it_o be_v their_o duty_n i_o can_v at_o present_v enlarge_v on_o this_o head_n and_o therefore_o as_o to_o this_o i_o can_v only_o add_v that_o the_o sense_n of_o all_o protestant_n general_o be_v that_o all_o christian_n ought_v to_o assemble_v themselves_o together_o for_o public_a worship_n viz._n for_o prayer_n the_o word_n and_o sacrament_n and_o that_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o a_o pastor_n to_o take_v heed_n to_o himself_o and_o the_o flock_n over_o which_o he_o be_v make_v overseer_n and_o that_o it_o be_v the_o people_n duty_n to_o attend_v ordinary_o on_o the_o ministry_n of_o their_o own_o pastor_n the_o great_a difference_n between_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o dissenter_n be_v not_o so_o much_o about_o the_o people_n duty_n of_o assemble_v themselves_o together_o for_o public_a worship_n as_o about_o the_o place_n where_o and_o the_o minister_n with_o who_o the_o church_n of_o england_n say_v it_o must_v be_v in_o the_o parish_n church_n with_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o parish_n but_o the_o dissent_a assert_n that_o every_o christian_n be_v invest_v with_o a_o right_a to_o choose_v his_o own_o pastor_n and_o that_o therefore_o he_o must_v go_v where_o he_o find_v the_o worship_n to_o be_v in_o a_o way_n most_o agreeable_a to_o god_n holy_a word_n but_o when_o he_o be_v once_o fix_v he_o be_v under_o those_o obligation_n of_o duty_n unto_o his_o pastor_n that_o the_o church_n of_o england_n do_v say_v a_o parishioner_n be_v unto_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o parish_n but_o see_v on_o these_o thing_n i_o can_v now_o enlarge_v i_o will_v conclude_v with_o a_o humble_a and_o affectionate_a request_n to_o all_o good_a christian_n whether_o episcopal_a or_o dissenter_n i_o beseech_v you_o to_o consider_v that_o conscience_n be_v a_o tender_a thing_n its_o wound_n unsupportable_a frequent_o accompany_v with_o such_o horror_n as_o be_v very_o like_a unto_o the_o pain_n and_o torment_n of_o the_o damn_a no_o man_n therefore_o must_v act_v contrary_a to_o the_o plain_a conviction_n thereof_o what_o man_n soever_o do_v what_o he_o be_v convince_v in_o conscience_n be_v a_o sin_n do_v great_o dishonour_v and_o provoke_v almighty_a god_n all_o care_n must_v be_v take_v to_o obtain_v the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o gain_v a_o freedom_n from_o error_n but_o there_o must_v not_o be_v a_o act_n against_o the_o plain_a conviction_n of_o conscience_n though_o erroneous_a on_o this_o i_o insist_v as_o a_o sound_a part_n of_o the_o protestant_a doctrine_n strenuous_o defend_v against_o the_o many_o feeble_a assault_n of_o the_o papist_n by_o several_a worthy_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o real_o this_o be_v a_o rule_n all_o good_a christian_n must_v walk_v by_o in_o do_v which_o see_v there_o be_v almost_o as_o many_o different_a persuasion_n of_o conscience_n about_o some_o lesser_a thing_n as_o there_o be_v consider_v mind_n there_o will_v be_v as_o many_o different_a practice_n where_o there_o be_v different_a sentiment_n about_o matter_n of_o practice_n there_o the_o practice_n will_v be_v different_a for_o which_o reason_n the_o strong_a must_v take_v heed_n that_o they_o despise_v not_o the_o weak_a and_o the_o weak_a look_n to_o it_o that_o they_o judge_v not_o the_o strong_a for_o whether_o we_o conform_v or_o conform_v not_o if_o we_o do_v what_o we_o do_v conscientious_o to_o the_o lord_n we_o shall_v be_v accept_v of_o he_o i_o very_o believe_v that_o many_o do_v think_v themselves_o bind_v in_o conscience_n to_o conform_v the_o which_o they_o will_v not_o do_v to_o gain_v a_o world_n if_o they_o do_v think_v it_o a_o sin_n and_o it_o be_v as_o true_a that_o many_o among_o the_o dissenter_n be_v as_o conscientious_o nonconformist_n and_o will_v real_o have_v conform_v do_v they_o not_o think_v that_o so_o conform_v they_o shall_v sin_v against_o god_n both_o these_o must_v be_v tender_o regard_v by_o such_o as_o will_v walk_v by_o the_o christian_a rule_n a_o nonconformist_n censure_v a_o conformist_n as_o one_o that_o act_v against_o his_o conscience_n be_v unchristian_a and_o a_o conformist_n censure_v all_o dissenter_n as_o hypocrite_n look_v on_o their_o conscience_n to_o be_v but_o fancy_n their_o religion_n to_o be_v faction_n be_v no_o less_o unchristian_a than_o the_o former_a but_o to_o be_v more_o particular_a my_o humble_a desire_n be_v 1._o that_o those_o who_o be_v of_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n will_v continue_v it_o so_o long_o as_o they_o can_v with_o a_o safe_a conscience_n let_v not_o every_o little_a dissatisfaction_n with_o some_o man_n drive_v you_o off_o from_o those_o way_n you_o have_v nothing_o beside_o the_o miscarriage_n of_o some_o man_n of_o that_o profession_n to_o object_v against_o it_o be_v true_a your_o duty_n be_v to_o mind_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o the_o edification_n of_o your_o own_o soul_n and_o if_o your_o parish_n minister_n be_v one_o who_o incapacity_n for_o the_o ministerial_a work_n be_v such_o as_o not_o to_o answer_v the_o end_n of_o the_o ministry_n you_o must_v look_v out_o for_o a_o better_a and_o be_v where_o you_o may_v have_v more_o than_o the_o shadow_n of_o a_o minister_n even_o one_o who_o be_v competent_o qualify_v for_o the_o work_n but_o do_v this_o in_o a_o way_n as_o little_a offensive_a to_o the_o church_n of_o england_n as_o your_o conscience_n will_v permit_v why_o will_v you_o separate_v from_o that_o communion_n where_o you_o may_v be_v without_o sin_n especial_o see_v by_o do_v so_o you_o do_v what_o you_o can_v justify_v but_o if_o you_o can_v continue_v your_o communion_n without_o comply_v with_o sin_n you_o must_v rather_o withdraw_v than_o sin_n 2._o that_o such_o as_o be_v not_o actual_o of_o any_o communion_n i._n e._n neither_o join_v with_o the_o church_n of_o england_n nor_o with_o the_o dissenter_n of_o which_o fort_n there_o be_v many_o especial_o among_o the_o young_a people_n will_v remember_v that_o they_o have_v as_o christian_n a_o right_a to_o choose_v their_o own_o pastor_n in_o the_o exercise_n of_o which_o right_n it_o be_v their_o duty_n to_o have_v a_o special_a regard_n to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n the_o good_a of_o their_o own_o soul_n and_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o church_n and_o therefore_o if_o you_o may_v have_v all_o these_o end_n answer_v by_o join_v yourselves_o to_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o you_o can_v with_o a_o safe_a conscience_n do_v it_o you_o do_v well_o in_o join_v with_o that_o church_n but_o if_o you_o can_v with_o a_o safe_a conscience_n join_v with_o the_o church_n of_o england_n but_o can_v with_o the_o nonconformist_n you_o must_v apply_v yourselves_o to_o those_o of_o the_o nonconformist_n who_o do_v in_o your_o judgement_n keep_v most_o exact_o to_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o gospel_n you_o must_v regard_v god_n glory_n as_o your_o ultimate_a
