281._o l._n 12._o the_o most_o valuable_a opinion_n that_o be_v controvert_v among_o church_n and_o sect_n etc._n etc._n that_o from_o this_o place_n and_o some_o other_o of_o my_o reply_n some_o will_v gather_v that_o i_o make_v nothing_o of_o the_o article_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n it_o be_v a_o sign_n to_o i_o that_o they_o either_o want_v reason_n or_o charity_n for_o in_o my_o own_o thought_n i_o make_v a_o vast_a difference_n betwixt_o the_o article_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n and_o opinion_n and_o can_v forbear_v to_o profess_v that_o my_o judgement_n be_v that_o if_o sect_n differ_v in_o these_o some_o of_o they_o will_v not_o fail_v to_o prove_v maim_v or_o defective_a christian_n of_o which_o sort_n i_o conceive_v be_v such_o article_n as_o these_o namely_o the_o existence_n of_o a_o god_n omnipotent_a omniscient_a and_o infinite_o good_a together_o with_o the_o trinity_n of_o the_o godhead_n the_o divinity_n of_o christ_n that_o he_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o sin_n that_o he_o come_v into_o the_o world_n to_o root_v out_o the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o every_o plant_n that_o be_v not_o of_o his_o father_n plant_v that_o be_v all_o

sight_n of_o his_o disciple_n and_o that_o he_o will_v in_o due_a time_n return_v visible_o from_o thence_o to_o take_v vengeance_n on_o the_o wicked_a and_o recompense_v the_o good_a when_o he_o shall_v change_v their_o vile_a body_n into_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o glorious_a body_n crown_v they_o with_o everlasting_a life_n and_o joy_n these_o and_o such_o like_a truth_n as_o these_o so_o plain_o comprehend_v in_o the_o sacred_a text_n it_o never_o come_v into_o my_o mind_n to_o debase_v they_o so_o much_o as_o to_o cast_v they_o into_o the_o rank_n of_o opinion_n though_o of_o the_o best_a sort_n that_o can_v be_v imagine_v for_o these_o be_v not_o the_o object_n of_o opinion_n to_o any_o real_a christian_a but_o of_o faith_n by_o which_o i_o understand_v a_o steady_a and_o unshaken_a belief_n that_o they_o be_v true_a and_o whosoever_o contradict_v any_o of_o these_o i_o make_v bold_a to_o pronounce_v let_v he_o talk_v as_o sweet_o and_o gracious_o as_o he_o will_v that_o it_o be_v nothing_o but_o either_o puzzle_v nature_n obfuscate_v melancholy_a or_o some_o diabolical_a mystery_n work_v in_o he_o that_o embolden_v he_o to_o contradict_v so_o holy_a a_o

enemy_n to_o the_o puritan_n from_o this_o passage_n and_o some_o other_o of_o like_a nature_n when_o as_o if_o they_o read_v but_o on_o a_o little_a further_o in_o this_o place_n they_o may_v see_v i_o open_o profess_v myself_o a_o friend_n to_o all_o sect_n whatsoever_o in_o the_o christian_a world_n for_o what_o warrant_n have_v i_o to_o be_v a_o foe_n to_o they_o that_o god_n himself_o be_v a_o friend_n to_o as_o i_o make_v no_o question_n but_o he_o be_v to_o any_o in_o any_o sect_n that_o hold_v the_o fundamental_n of_o christianity_n with_o a_o conscionable_a endeavour_n of_o live_v

of_o a_o zeal_n to_o their_o own_o folly_n or_o it_o may_v be_v out_o of_o a_o worse_a principle_n pride_n covetousness_n and_o revenge_n i_o must_v confess_v i_o think_v they_o be_v not_o then_o
