1. Consider in how many Things we agree, and in how few we differ. There is a three-fold Unity, in Mind, and Heart, and Scope.
In Mind: Rom. 15. 5, 6. Now the God of Patience and Consolation, grant that you be like minded one towards another; that ye ••ay with one Mind, and one Mouth, glorify God.
In Heart: Acts 4. 32. And the multitude of them that believed, were of one Heart, and of one Soul.
As to the Scope: Rom. 15. 5, 6, 7. Now as to the Way, 'Tis either the general way of Faith and Holiness; for all that shall be saved, are of one mind, as to the Substantials of Faith and Worship; Jer. 32. 30. I will give them one Heart, and one Way, that they may fear me for ever. But there may be a different practice as to some lesser things; Should we for these break with one another?
