A vindication of foure serious questions of grand importance,. concerning excommunication, and suspention from the sacrament of the Lords Supper, from some misprisions and unjust exceptions lately taken against them; both in the pulpit, by a reverend brother of Scotland, in a sermon at Margarets Church in Westminster, before the Honourable House of Commons, at a publike fast there held for Scotland, on the 5th of September last: and in the presse, by three new-printed pamphlets, by way of answer to, and censure of them. Wherein some Scripture texts, (commonly produced for excommunication, and bare suspention from the Lords Supper onely,) are cleared from false glosses, inferences, conclusions wrested from them; ... with other particulars tending to the advancement of verity, unity, and the better, speedier settlement of a church-discipline, according t Gods Word, so much desired. By William Prynne of Lincolns Inne, Esquire.
