3. And then when men are drawn over to be Papists for the avoiding of Schism, and the obtaining of Unity, they are unawares involved in the most desperate Schism; which I have proved that party to be guilty of: (and with it drink in the dregs of all the Roman abominations.) When men have set up a new Church-form, by setting up a new Head and Centre of ⟨p. 393⟩Unity, and then judge of all particular Churches and Members by this standard, it leadeth them unavoidably to separate from all the Churches and Christians upon earth, that conspire not, and centre not with them in their new devised Head.

4. And by this means Charity is much destroyed in mens souls, (and he that hath least of Love, hath least of God) and the Preachers and Pastors turn all their studies into matter of Controversy, and their labours into wranglings, and all under pretence of Catholic Unity: And having not charity, they prove not only sounding brass, and tinkling Cymbals in their most learned labours, but too often burning brass (like Perillus Bull,) and military Trumpets, and all this under pretence of Charity, when they have destroyed it. Hence is it that uncharitable censures are so common, and the Lambs of Christ so often clothed in the skins of Wolves, by the Wolves that have by exchange put on the skin of the Lamb. Scarce a man that crosseth or displeaseth (that is, dissenteth from, or disobeyeth) the uncharitable Clergy, but he is stigmatized for an Heretic, and charged with almost as much wickedness, as their mouths are wide enough to utter, and the ears of other men to hear. What horrid things have they spoken of the poor Waldenses and Albigenses, and Bohemians? Of Luther, Oecolampadius, Calvin, and who not? Though I have had applauding flattering Letters from some of them that tried whether I were flexible and ductile, yet I doubt not but I shall have my share my self before they have done with me: & I wonder I hear not of it before now. Hence among other reasons its like that Mr. Pierce became so destitute of Charity, as to disgorge his sold of so many bitter reproaches and calumnies against the Puritans and Presbyterians, whom if he know not, he sinneth but as Paul did, but if he know, he terrifieth us from his principles by the fruits: that which shows the want of Charity, shows the want of saving Grace: and consequently the want of right to Glory. Hence it is that the greatest Schismatics are the commonest accusers of their Brethren with schism, Pharisaically saying, I thank thee Lord that I am not as other men, nor as these Schismatics. Hence also it is that so many learned well-meaning Papists do so pervert their studies and endeavours, and abuse and lose (and worse then lose) their wits and parts to draw men to their way; compassing Sea and
