Ortho. But he is a Heretick, who subverteth the Fundamentals.
Reconcil. If he do it directly and knowingly, he is an Infidel: For he is not to be called a Christian, or a Believer, who denieth any thing Essential to Christianity. But you must distinguish between, 1. Denying the Words, and denying the Thing signified by them. 2. Between denying Directly, and denying by Consequence. 1. When Words are used in diverse Senses, he that denieth them in one Sense, denieth them not in another: And he that mistaketh the ⟨p. 44⟩meaning of a Word, may deny the Word, and yet hold fast the matter signified by it And he that speaketh the greatest Error in Terms not understood, may mean and hold the truth. 2. And Consequences not discerned, will n•• prove a man to be a real Heretic, or one that holdeth not the truth, which by such consequences he subverteth: Therefore all Pa•i•ic•t••s conclude, that Consequences are not to be charged too far, when not understood.
