that_o best_a do_v like_o it_o for_o they_o be_v confirm_v in_o their_o malice_n and_o superstition_n and_o be_v bolden_v to_o do_v that_o which_o be_v without_o faith_n and_o therefore_o be_v sin_n

that_o make_v he_o tear_v his_o own_o bowel_n a_o sunder_o bern._n let_v go_v these_o word_n and_o come_v to_o the_o four_o point_n how_o these_o thing_n be_v against_o the_o scripture_n or_o beside_o the_o scripture_n mil._n they_o be_v beside_o the_o scripture_n because_o that_o no_o manner_n of_o appoint_a apparel_n for_o christ_n minister_n nor_o any_o sacramental_a garment_n be_v once_o name_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n which_o be_v a_o book_n all_o sufficient_a to_o instruct_v we_o to_o all_o well_o do_n by_o the_o which_o we_o may_v learn_v what_o christ_n require_v of_o his_o apostle_n and_o what_o simplicity_n they_o use_v in_o their_o garment_n and_o ceremony_n &_o usage_n of_o their_o sacrament_n and_o this_o be_v most_o plain_a that_o they_o borrow_v no_o garment_n of_o the_o idolater_n that_o they_o have_v convert_v unto_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o scope_n of_o our_o disputation_n for_o this_o be_v the_o question_n as_o it_o be_v now_o in_o controversy_n whether_o it_o be_v against_o or_o beside_o the_o scripture_n for_o they_o to_o wear_v the_o garment_n of_o idolatrous_a priest_n that_o have_v be_v the_o mean_n to_o beat_v down_o their_o idol_n and_o to_o banish_v their_o idolatry_n the_o question_n also_o may_v run_v further_o whether_o any_o true_a bishop_n of_o christ_n may_v compel_v his_o fellow_n bishop_n and_o fellow_n minister_n by_o prison_n so_o to_o do_v but_o this_o declare_v rome_n to_o be_v come_v home_o to_o our_o gate_n and_o christian_a liberty_n in_o this_o point_n to_o be_v utterlie_o banish_v therefore_o i_o will_v not_o now_o meddle_v with_o it_o how_o beit_n i_o do_v answer_n to_o y_z t_z former_a that_o if_o paul_n call_v all_o the_o carnal_a and_o outward_a holiness_n and_o all_o that_o he_o may_v trust_v in_o concern_v the_o flesh_n under_o moses_n law_n dung_n loss_n and_o dross_n for_o christ_n sake_n then_o must_v all_o y_z t_z idolater_n be_v they_o papi_v or_o other_o count_v all_o their_o hypocritical_a show_n of_o holiness_n dung_n &_o dross_n and_o that_o they_o shall_v do_v so_o god_n by_o his_o prophet_n isaiah_n do_v teach_v they_o to_o dete_v and_o destroy_v into_o powder_n those_o thing_n that_o be_v about_o the_o idol_n most_o precious_a and_o say_v that_o this_o be_v the_o token_n and_o fruit_n of_o the_o take_v away_o of_o their_o former_a sin_n when_o they_o shall_v make_v all_o the_o stone_n of_o the_o altar_n as_o chalk_n stone_n break_v in_o piece_n that_o the_o groave_n &_o idol_n may_v not_o stand_v again_o say_v he_o pollute_v the_o cover_n of_o the_o image_n of_o silver_n &_o the_o ephod_n of_o the_o image_n of_o gold_n and_o cast_v they_o away_o as_o a_o menstruous_a clout_n and_o say_v unto_o it_o get_v thou_o hence_o wherefore_o i_o ask_v thou_o if_o thou_o think_v of_o conscience_n that_o isarah_n can_v suppose_v that_o the_o little_a rag_n of_o the_o idol_n shall_v be_v keep_v in_o reverence_n for_o comeliness_n and_o to_o beautify_v the_o ministry_n &_o sacrament_n when_o he_o have_v give_v such_o terrible_a charge_n against_o the_o great_a now_o furthermore_o because_o these_o priestly_a garment_n be_v carnal_a show_n of_o the_o papist_n they_o be_v dung_n and_o dross_n and_o so_o beside_o the_o scripture_n but_o as_o they_o be_v relic_n and_o rag_n belong_v to_o the_o most_o blasphemon_n altar_n and_o idol_n so_o be_v they_o against_o all_o the_o scripture_n that_o command_v the_o utter_a abolishinge_v of_o idolatrous_a remnaunte_n whereof_o i_o can_v allege_v many_o place_n therefore_o as_o the_o wear_n of_o the_o garment_n of_o the_o chemarim_n of_o the_o priest_n of_o baal_n or_o of_o mahomet_n in_o the_o ministry_n and_o in_o the_o sacrament_n be_v beside_o or_o contrary_a to_o the_o scripture_n if_o any_o of_o these_o shall_v be_v command_v for_o decency_n and_o order_n so_o these_o popish_a garment_n be_v beside_o and_o contrary_a to_o the_o scripture_n because_o the_o idolatry_n of_o the_o papist_n have_v be_v as_o wicked_a and_o abominable_a before_o god_n as_o any_o of_o these_o god_n also_o say_v by_o his_o prophet_n zephanaiah_n that_o he_o will_v cut_v out_o the_o remnant_n of_o baal_n and_o the_o name_n of_o the_o chemarim_n and_o the_o priest_n and_o all_o those_o that_o be_v clothe_v with_o strange_a apparel_n therefore_o it_o be_v beside_o or_o against_o the_o scripture_n to_o maintain_v such_o remnaunte_n of_o such_o priest_n and_o such_o show_v of_o strange_a apparel_n borrow_v from_o the_o idolater_n the_o prophet_n hosea_n teach_v that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n may_v not_o mix_v their_o religion_n with_o other_o people_n therefore_o it_o be_v beside_o or_o against_o the_o scripture_n to_o mix_v our_o true_a religion_n and_o sacrament_n with_o the_o do_n of_o the_o papist_n zachariah_n say_v also_o that_o the_o false_a prophet_n be_v ashamed_a of_o their_o vision_n and_o garment_n wherein_o they_o have_v deceive_v therefore_o it_o be_v beside_o or_o against_o the_o scripture_n to_o compel_v christ_n minister_n to_o wear_v they_o and_o though_o some_o liberty_n be_v permit_v by_o the_o scripture_n for_o the_o church_n to_o appoint_v some_o order_n yet_o be_v the_o bound_n so_o limit_v that_o all_o must_v be_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o to_o edification_n nothing_o superfluous_a or_o trifle_a nothing_o superstitious_a nor_o idolatrous_a for_o such_o thing_n be_v against_o god_n glory_n against_o the_o scripture_n of_o god_n and_o contrary_a to_o edification_n as_o thou_o have_v hear_v bern._n if_o thou_o be_v able_a to_o prove_v the_o commandment_n of_o these_o thing_n so_o playnelie_o to_o be_v against_o christian_a liberty_n also_o which_o be_v the_o fifte_a point_n thou_o will_v almost_o persuade_v i_o to_o speak_v no_o more_o against_o the_o london_n minister_n mil._n that_o be_v a_o thing_n most_o evident_a and_o therein_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o that_o we_o shall_v agree_v for_o to_o bind_v a_o man_n to_o do_v against_o his_o conscience_n be_v against_o christian_a liberty_n but_o thereto_o be_v many_o drive_v by_o this_o commandment_n therefore_o it_o be_v against_o christian_n liberty_n the_o conscience_n must_v have_v god_n word_n to_o warrant_v the_o action_n but_o god_n word_n do_v not_o warrant_v we_o to_o use_v these_o idolatrous_a gear_n but_o plain_o forbid_v the_o same_o therefore_o man_n can_v not_o have_v his_o conscience_n persuade_v that_o this_o stand_v with_o christian_n liberty_n again_o to_o command_v man_n to_o abstain_v from_o such_o thing_n as_o be_v know_v to_o belong_v unto_o idosle_n

of_o such_o thing_n either_o unknown_a or_o of_o some_o necessity_n i_o have_v tell_v thou_o before_o that_o so_o the_o creature_n be_v indifferent_a and_o to_o know_v this_o be_v one_o point_n of_o
