4. Can you tell why I was to name Dr. O. in my Cure of Church Divisions, or his Books: I told you great reasons against it, what now you call a brave advantage, would have been otherwise called by yours. I was not inclined to note a little evil among much good: If you cannot see the Doctors Arguments there answered by me, I cannot help that: Must. I transcribe them to convince you. Pag. 177. D•r. 32. [Obj. Where hath God given any men power to prescribe & impost Forms for others, or command others to obey them?] Read the answer, pag. 178, 179, 180. At least not on Ministers, p. 181. Christ hath given gifts to all his Ministers, and commanded them to use them: They use them not, when they use imposed Forms. So pag. 190. p. 196. of approving of sin, and signifying Consent by joining. More fully, p. 201. (And in my Christ. Direct.) If you never found these Arguments (there answered) in Dr. O. Book, I cannot help that, others have. Pag. 11. I thought you had known how usual it is to speak to the second person, in answering Books many hundred years old? If not, you have free leave to take it for my folly: I'll not contend with Quakers, whether we should say [You] or [Thou] nor with you, whether it be better to say [Him] or [You.] You say, It displeaseth him not.
