A free disputation against pretended liberty of conscience tending to resolve doubts moved

3. The Apostle saith, Heresies must be, our Saviour saith more of offences and sins in general, Matth. 18. 7. [Greek or Hebrew]. and Luke saith more, chap. 17. 1. [Greek or Hebrew]. Its needful scandals shall come, and its impossible but scandals must fall out, then all the murders, parricides, sorceries, rapines, for the which Christ saith, there is a woe befalling the world, fall out by necessity of a divine working decree, yea the crucifying of the Lord of glory came to pass, Acts 2. 23. [Greek or Hebrew] by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, Acts 4. 28. but yet the Magistrate is not to tolerate the shedding of innocent blood, and all the offences that fall out in the Common-wealth though never so bloody and atrocious. 2. Variety of judgements, was no question a grief to Paul, ¹when he so pathetically exhorteth the Philippians to fulfil his joy, and remove his grief, and to be of one accord, and one mind, Phil. 2. 2. 2 Cor. 13. 11. Be of one mind, 1 Cor. 1. 10. I beseech you be joined together in the same mind, and in the same judgement, Heresies no question and errors in matters of God are not free, nor can there be one spirit of grace and heavenliness in Arrius, Apollinaris, Nestorius, Eutiches, no more then there can be one spirit of grace in sin, nor see we a glass of Gods manifold wisdom in many sundry fantastic opinions teaching God and his son Christ, it is a spotted and broken glass;² and he might say variety of sins are the expressions of Gods infinite wisdom,³ for the scripture calls Heresies works of the flesh, doctrines of devils, gangrenes, lies delusions, corruptions of the mind, perverse disputing, deceits, perverse things, dreams of their own heads, false dreams, vain and foolish things,
