Sect. 5. Exc. 1.
Answ. [We fear this may discourage many, certainly themselves cannot desire that men should come to the holy Communion with a troubled Conscience, and ⟨p. 105⟩therefore have no reason to blame the Church, for saying [it is requisite that men come with a quiet Conscience, and prescribing means for quieting thereof] if this be to discourage men, it is fit they should be discouraged and deterred, and kept from the Communion till they have done all that is here directed by the Church, which they may well do considering, that this Exhortation shall be read in the Church, the Sunday or Holy-day before.]
Rep. But we can and do desire, that many that have a troubled Conscience, and cannot otherwise quiet it, should come to the Communion for remedy, and not be discouraged or kept away.
