THE Tenth Days Conference Between B. and C. OF PERSEVERANCE.
B. You have now some advantage for your censure of Dissenters 1where the difference is real: But I am loth you should make it greater than it is, or make as hot and contentious work about it as Marbachius and Zanohy did. How odious soever Thompson and Bertius have been made by our side, and Jovinian, Calvin, and his followers by the other (though I wish there were no difference at all) I undertake to prove that the difference is not of so great moment as is commonly on both sides pretended; And no greater than should consist with true Love and Communion, even between the Members, yea the Pastors of the same Church, who are therein of differing opinions: But first let me hear what you have to aggravate it.
