neither_o the_o way_n to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o glory_n nor_o our_o duty_n under_o the_o kingdom_n of_o grace_n they_o be_v no_o part_n of_o god_n worship_n and_o service_n no_o matter_n of_o

great_a disturbance_n unto_o the_o peace_n and_o a_o great_a hindrance_n unto_o the_o edification_n of_o the_o church_n the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n a_o second_o argument_n from_o the_o nature_n of_o thing_n indifferent_a be_v the_o great_a latitude_n of_o they_o though_o some_o of_o they_o be_v scandalous_a yet_o there_o will_v still_o remain_v a_o ample_a field_n of_o they_o beside_o 1_o cor._n 10.28_o if_o any_o man_n say_v unto_o you_o this_o be_v offer_v in_o sacrifice_n unto_o idol_n eat_v not_o for_o his_o sake_n that_o show_v it_o etc._n etc._n the_o earth_n be_v the_o lord_n and_o

of_o argument_n that_o the_o apostle_n insist_o on_o be_v take_v from_o the_o nature_n of_o scandal_n it_o be_v a_o sin_n against_o that_o tender_a love_n which_o we_o owe_v unto_o our_o brethren_n
