" A later Parliamen- tary declaration — the historic " Instrument of Government"— declares that^ "to the public profession (of the Christian religion) held forth, none shall be compelled by penalties or other- wise ; but that endeavours be used to win them by sound doctrine and the example of a good conversation. " "That such as profess faith in God by Jesus Christ (though differing in judgment from the doctrine, worship, or dis- cipline publicly held forth) shall not be re- strained from, but ...shall be protected in, the profession of the faith and exercise of their religion ; so as they abuse not this liberty to the civil injury of others and to the actual disturbance of the public peace on their parts ; provided this liberty be not extended to Popery or Prelacy, nor to such as, under the profession of Christ, hold forth and practise licentiousness.
