A58653 Jerubbaal justified: or, A plain rebuke of the high (pretended humble) remonstrance and plea against Mr. Crofton his reformation not separation or, a plea for communion with the church under those corruptions, and by that disorderly ministration, to which he cannot conform, nor by it administer. Demonstrating, T.P. (alias D.) his grosse mistakes of Mr. Crofton his principle and argument: as also the fallacie and vanity of his pleaded necessity for his (confessed) separation from publique assemblies, which is found insufficient to acquit him of schisme. To which is added a position, disputing the lawfulnesse of ministers receiving an imposed liturgy. R. S.; Crofton, Zachary, 1625 or 6-1672. Reformation not separation. 1663 (1663) Wing S130 35,735 54

unlawful_a constitution_n and_o god_n be_v not_o at_o all_o worship_v by_o it_o or_o in_o the_o use_n of_o it_o he_o therefore_o conclude_v his_o crime_n be_v in_o not_o join_v in_o prayer_n in_o

ministerial_a mode_n whereby_o in_o reference_n to_o prayer_n right_a matter_n be_v request_v from_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o so_o god_n worship_n do_v substantial_o exist_v for_o matter_n and_o essential_a form_n and_o he_o be_v worship_v by_o the_o same_o nor_o do_v it_o at_o all_o vitiate_v god_n worship_n because_o it_o be_v in_o itself_o a_o humane_a mode_n and_o

it_o do_v not_o alter_v the_o nature_n of_o it_o but_o that_o god_n be_v as_o true_o worship_v by_o it_o when_o impose_v as_o when_o leave_v at_o liberty_n and_o his_o worship_n be_v as_o full_o

i_o must_v not_o pass_v without_o observation_n and_o that_o be_v this_o antagonist_n say_v i_o know_v mr._n crofton_n do_v attribute_v the_o essential_a form_n of_o prayer_n to_o it_o pag._n 25._o which_o he_o describe_v to_o be_v a_o 39_o page_n 39_o call_n upon_o god_n in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n but_o if_o he_o understand_v not_o by_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n the_o will_n of_o christ_n than_o i_o say_v it_o be_v not_o a_o right_a description_n of_o prayer_n sir_n i_o will_v assure_v he_o mr._n crofton_n do_v not_o understand_v by_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n the_o will_n of_o

in_o the_o same_o page_n mr._n crofton_n determine_v the_o matter_n must_v be_v according_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o the_o will_n of_o christ_n do_v require_v some_o adjunct_n quality_n as_o

the_o name_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v for_o his_o sake_n merit_n and_o mediation_n can_v be_v leave_v out_o sir_n i_o now_o leave_v our_o remonstrator_n on_o his_o rack_n of_o doubt_v pray_v god_n may_v show_v he_o mercy_n not_o doubt_v but_o whatever_o they_o be_v to_o he_o you_o see_v his_o doubt_n be_v not_o invincible_a to_o other_o for_o mr._n crofton_n argument_n stand_v yet_o firm_a viz._n the_o worship_n of_o god_n exist_v for_o matter_n and_o essential_a form_n his_o own_o in_o substance_n though_o by_o the_o liturgy_n a_o defective_a disorder_a unlawful_a mode_n may_v not_o be_v refuse_v or_o decline_v this_o mode_n only_o by_o this_o reason_n because_o it_o be_v humane_a make_v not_o a_o inevitable_a necessity_n of_o communion_n or_o secession_n 2._o our_o remonstrator_n can_v communicate_v in_o the_o lord_n supper_n under_o the_o present_a mode_n and_o method_n of_o ministration_n in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o his_o ground_n be_v the_o impose_v gesture_n of_o kneel_v the_o superstition_n and_o corruption_n which_o attend_v it_o sir_n what_o superstition_n and_o corruption_n attend_v the_o ministration_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n in_o which_o he_o must_v personal_o act_v so_o as_o to_o become_v guilty_a of_o the_o same_o i_o see_v not_o nor_o do_v he_o specify_v any_o the_o gesture_n of_o kneel_v except_v that_o the_o ministerial_a mode_n of_o this_o ordinance_n be_v disorder_v i_o can_v allow_v he_o but_o this_o as_o in_o other_o part_n of_o public_a worship_n be_v personal_a to_o the_o minister_n and_o he_o only_o there_o be_v a_o possibility_n of_o his_o compose_a reverend_a attendance_n on_o the_o ordinance_n without_o any_o personal_a act_n in_o those_o popular_a respond_v and_o conclamation_n which_o be_v direct_v to_o the_o people_n in_o and_o by_o the_o liturgy_n as_o to_o the_o gesture_n of_o kneel_v i_o do_v not_o find_v that_o mr._n crofton_n do_v speak_v one_o word_n for_o it_o or_o that_o he_o ever_o advise_v any_o to_o it_o i_o well_o know_v he_o do_v not_o yield_v it_o nor_o approve_v it_o i_o have_v hear_v he_o say_v that_o if_o he_o be_v put_v by_o the_o communion_n in_o the_o lord_n supper_n because_o he_o will_v not_o receive_v the_o element_n in_o that_o gesture_n he_o be_v bar_v from_o his_o duty_n and_o privilege_n by_o a_o act_n of_o violence_n he_o be_v drive_v he_o do_v not_o go_v from_o god_n ordinance_n it_o be_v sir_n worth_a the_o enquiry_n whether_o this_o profess_a separatist_n negative_a have_v tender_v himself_o to_o communion_n in_o the_o lord_n
