A trespasse in the Excommunicate thing.
Excommunication, what it is.
It is a solemne and fearfull publike censure of the Church, cutting off lawfully, according to the word of God, and casting out of their publike so∣ciety and priuate fellowship, such members as pub∣likely offend in some grieuous crime, or be obsti∣nate contemners of the lawful admonitions of the Church for priuate faults, that by such shame they may be driuen to repentance, and others by theyr example kept from Infection of Sin. Mathew 18. 15. 1 Cor. 5, 5, 6▪ 7. 2 Thess. 3, 14. which places plainely shew, what Excommunication is, who are to execute it, vppon whom, for what matters, to what ends, and how long. The abuse of Excom∣munication in Popery, is manifold & most grosse, especially heerein; that beeing a spirituall censure, they apply it to the deposition of Kings, and alie∣nation of Subiects from their oath of allegiance, & other temporall matters.
