Quest. But what is it that you would have 〈…〉 do for Love and Peace, and against the contraries?
Answ. First, Preach and write, if it be your calling.
Secondly, Let the cause of Love and Peace, be much in your secret and open prayers to God.
Thirdly, Instruct all that learn of you with principles of Love and Peace, and labour to plant them deep in their minds, and make them as sensible of the evil of the contraries, as they are of any other sin. Unless Divines and Parents do take the way to bring up the people, and children under this kind of doctrine, that Love and peace may become their Religion, the Church is never like to be recovered.
