And by these evil he meaneth not weaklings, or such as err without maliciousness: But the prophet David sayeth also, Psalm. 119. I have hated the wicked, thy law have I loved. What we should do with the weak in the ⟨p. 52⟩faith, or with them that err of ignorance, rather than of o• stinate stubbornness, the Apostle hath taught us in the 14. […] the Romans. The example of our Saviour. Hath thaugh•• also, bringing again that strayed Sheep upon his shulde• into the sheepfold. Therefore the lord speaketh here of t•• obstinate, of the deceivers which delight to err them selves and to draw others with them into errors, no Christen p• tience biddeth to bear with such men.
