also they bring the Word of God to try this Point, must not the Judgment which they form concerning it, if they are honest, be the Judgment of Conscience?
Mr Frazer says, it is abominable for Men to follow the Light of their consciences in holding Communion with any Church: For this is making Conscience the Rule, and not the Word of God. Let's see where the Abomination lies. I do think that it is abominable to affirm that other Men's Consciences are not directed by the Word of God without proving it. When Men join withother religious People, who profess to hold by the Scriptures, it is always supposed that they take the Word for a Guide to their Consciences; and the Dispute then lies concerning the Interpretation of Scripture, which every Man's Conscience must certainly judge of, if he acts conscientiously. It does not appear from any Thing Daniel Frazer has yet discovered, that the Church of Relief pretends to make their Consciences a Rule independent of Scripture; and their Judgment of the Word of God has as good a Chance to be right as Mr Frazer's, or any other Person's. People of such persecuting Principles, as this Frazer seems to be of, are dangeous to have to do with—There is no Toleration with him: Such as cannot come up to his Standard, if he had Power, would soon feel his Vengeance.
