Two things render a Man an Heretic according to the common ⟨p. 33⟩signification of the Word.1 1. An Error in matters of Faith, Fundamental or Essential to Salvation. 2. Stubbornness and Contumacy in holding and maintaining it. A Man that is an Heretic, 2after the first and second Admonition reject. Now that this Rejection is all one with Excommunication, appears by what Paul speaks, 1 Tim. 1.20. Of whom is Hymeneus and Alexander, 3whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to Blaspheme. Their Heresy, or Blasphemy was in saying the Resurrection was past.
