A85314	Separation examined: or, a treatise vvherein the grounds for separation from the ministry and churches of England are weighed, and found too light. The practise proved to be not onely unwarrantable, but likewise so hurtful to the churches, that church-reformation cannot with any comfort go forward, so long as such separation is tolerated. Also an humble request presented to the congregational divines, that since the differences between them and the classical-divines are very small they would please to strike in with the classical-divines in carrying on the worke of reformation, before the inundation of these corrupt opinions, have destroyed both ordinances and religion. / By Gi. Firmin minister to the church in Shalford in essex.	Firmin, Giles, 1614-1697.	1652 (1652)	Wing F964; Thomason E656_12; ESTC R206624	107,263	123

of_o corinth_n there_o be_v other_o point_n beside_o which_o i_o mention_v not_o but_o certain_o the_o controversy_n be_v not_o so_o clear_a as_o the_o controversy_n against_o papist_n socinian_o etc._n etc._n therefore_o i_o shall_v think_v that_o we_o have_v need_v close_o the_o more_o with_o these_o man_n a_o three_o consideration_n be_v this_o unto_o i_o it_o be_v something_o i_o know_v not_o how_o it_o take_v with_o other_o the_o strange_a thing_n that_o god_n in_o his_o providence_n have_v suffer_v to_o fall_v out_o in_o congregationall_a church_n i_o mean_v for_o division_n especial_o and_o error_n that_o charge_n can_v be_v deny_v of_o many_o congregationall_a member_n what_o error_n they_o have_v drink_v in_o and_o for_o division_n they_o be_v not_o secret_a thing_n but_o such_o as_o the_o whole_a nation_n know_v insomuch_o that_o i_o have_v hear_v a_o serious_a congregationall_a minister_n and_o a_o able_a man_n say_v when_o he_o have_v hear_v what_o crack_n and_o rending_n there_o have_v be_v in_o congregationall_a church_n he_o think_v serious_o whether_o it_o be_v the_o way_n of_o god_n or_o no_o how_o many_o congregationall_a church_n may_v be_v reckon_v where_o these_o have_v be_v and_o if_o minister_n do_v not_o let_v their_o member_n take_v their_o own_o course_n even_o what_o they_o will_v and_o drink_v in_o what_o error_n they_o will_v it_o be_v hard_o to_o keep_v a_o church_n from_o rend_v book_n ius_n divi._n p._n 114_o that_o learned_a book_n england_n give_v strong_a proof_n of_o this_o it_o be_v a_o very_a unhappy_a story_n that_o mr._n edward_n relate_v of_o the_o church_n at_o arnheim_n if_o it_o be_v true_a i_o find_v it_o quote_v by_o the_o london_n minister_n where_o that_o act_n be_v do_v in_o new_a england_n that_o mr._n cawdrey_n mention_n in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o dissent_v brethren_n i_o can_v imagine_v but_o that_o be_v also_o strange_a if_o true_a i_o suppose_v he_o relate_v as_o it_o be_v relate_v to_o he_o i_o know_v indeed_o where_o there_o be_v a_o sad_a example_n of_o this_o kind_n there_o also_o this_o use_n i_o make_v of_o these_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v need_n take_v another_o review_n of_o congregationall_a principle_n in_o respect_n of_o that_o power_n which_o be_v give_v to_o the_o fraternity_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n to_o be_v very_o tender_a towards_o the_o classical_a brethren_n and_o study_v agreement_n with_o they_o the_o four_o the_o classical_a man_n be_v oppose_v in_o reform_v their_o church_n as_o well_o as_o the_o congregationall_a man_n now_o for_o these_o to_o be_v oppose_v not_o only_o by_o the_o profane_a part_n who_o they_o keep_v off_o from_o the_o lord_n snpper_n but_o to_o be_v oppose_v also_o by_o the_o congregationall_a man_n that_o they_o prove_v a_o grief_n to_o they_o this_o be_v a_o hard_a chapter_n certain_o we_o have_v need_n more_o close_o with_o they_o and_o help_v to_o comfort_v they_o rather_o than_o grieve_v they_o in_o their_o work_n they_o be_v scorn_v by_o the_o profane_a party_n let_v not_o we_o scorn_v they_o 5_o these_o nursery_n of_o error_n i_o mean_v the_o separatist_n who_o cast_v off_o orthodox_n officer_n be_v as_o bad_a enemy_n to_o the_o congregationall_a church_n as_o they_o be_v to_o the_o classical_a nay_o worser_o your_o member_n will_v quick_o drink_v in_o their_o poison_n

but_o by_o one_o passage_n i_o meet_v with_o in_o the_o london_n vindication_n it_o seem_v some_o congregationall_a man_n do_v not_o think_v so_o for_o they_o in_o their_o complaint_n to_o you_o thus_o speak_v be_v there_o not_o some_o of_o you_o that_o choose_v rather_o to_o join_v with_o anabaptist_n and_o episcopal_a man_n then_o with_o we_o and_o that_o will_v give_v letter_n dimissory_a to_o your_o member_n to_o depart_v from_o you_o to_o the_o church_n of_o the_o anabaptist_n and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n deny_v they_o to_o such_o as_o desire_v they_o for_o to_o join_v with_o
