The Scripture Gospel defended, and Christ, grace, and free justification vindicated against the libertines…

Reconcil. You may know what is Error, and Heretical, when you know not the man to be an Heretic: do what you can justly, to save ⟨p. 49⟩men from their Error, without unjust and uncharitable censuring of the persons. To which end I remember you of the writing of worthy Dr. Fow•••, that Holiness is the design of Christianity: If then it prove that many of these that hold these •ad opinions, are men of sincere Holiness, then Christianity in them hath reached to its design: Now ••nd that the most of them that I have known, seem to me to be persons of serious Holiness (notwithstanding their infirmities): They are Zealous towards God; they greatly honour Christ; they avoid known Sin; they live justly and charitably towards men; yea, it is the Piety and Strictness of the lives of many of them, which hath drawn many well-meaning ignorant persons to their Errors. Bu•nian, an unlearned Antinomian-Anabaptist, wrote against the foresaid Book of Dr. Fowler; yet (abating his separation) I never heard that Bunyan was not an honest Godly man. If then he attained the design of Christianity, was he not a Christian?
