A32802 The rise, growth, and danger of Socinianisme together with a plaine discovery of a desperate designe of corrupting the Protestant religion, whereby it appeares that the religion which hath been so violently contended for (by the Archbishop of Canterbury and his adherents) is not the true pure Protestant religion, but an hotchpotch of Arminianisme, Socinianisme and popery : it is likewise made evident, that the atheists, Anabaptists, and sectaries so much complained of, have been raised or encouraged by the doctrines and practises of the Arminian, Socinian and popish party / by Fr. Cheynell ... Cheynell, Francis, 1608-1665. 1643 (1643) Wing C3815; ESTC R16168 87,143 88

to_o give_v a_o vote_n if_o you_o ask_v for_o the_o consent_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n of_o this_o age_n for_o he_o call_v they_o a_o company_n of_o christian_n in_o the_o 29._o section_n and_o though_o he_o say_v they_o be_v erroneous_a in_o explicate_n he_o do_v not_o say_v in_o deny_v the_o mystery_n of_o religion_n and_o allow_v great_a liberty_n in_o speculative_a matter_n so_o the_o
