The Second Part,
Concerning the usefulness of a sober Censure of such Parties or persons, who practise evil, or propagate falshood; with an enquiry into some different parties, who make profession of Christianity.
CHAP. I. TO speak against evil persons and practices duly and dis∣creetly, and to the just discrediting and disparaging bad Principles and Doctrines, is reasonable and good; with an account of what Rules are here to be observed. p. 121
...CHAP. II.
The Principles and Practices, maintained in the Church of Rome, are such as deserve severe Censure and a note of in∣famy.
Sect. 1. The Romish Church and its Doctrines, and the put∣ting them in practice, is chargeable with great disturbances, mischievous to the peace and order of the World. p. 141
Sect. 2. The Doctrines maintained in the Church of Rome, and the Constitutions therein established, are great hindran∣ces to holiness of life, and true devotion in Religion, and comply very far with Wickedness and Debauchery. p. 159
Sect. 3. Those Doctrines and Practices are publickly declared and asserted in the Church of Rome, and are by the Authori∣ty thereof established, which are highly derogatory to the just honour and dignity of our Saviour. p. 186
