part_n of_o the_o world_n the_o man_n of_o sin_n shall_v be_v worship_v as_o a_o saint_n than_o that_o by_o another_o the_o holy_a one_o of_o god_n shall_v be_v reject_v as_o a_o impostor_n for_o the_o bless_a spirit_n of_o truth_n who_o alone_o can_v guide_v we_o into_o all_o truth_n have_v tell_v we_o express_o that_o in_o the_o latter_a time_n some_o shall_v depart_v from_o the_o faith_n give_v heed_n to_o seduce_a spirit_n and_o doctrine_n of_o daemon_n that_o there_o shall_v arise_v a_o great_a one_o in_o the_o earth_n that_o shall_v oppose_v and_o exalt_v himself_o above_o all_o that_o be_v call_v god_n or_o that_o be_v worship_v so_o that_o he_o as_o god_n shall_v sit_v in_o the_o temple_n of_o god_n show_v himself_o that_o he_o be_v god_n who_o come_v shall_v be_v after_o the_o work_n of_o satan_n with_o all_o power_n and_o sign_n and_o lie_v wonder_n and_o with_o all_o deceivableness_n of_o unrighteousness_n in_o they_o that_o perish_v because_o they_o receive_v not_o the_o love_n of_o the_o truth_n that_o they_o may_v be_v save_v and_o that_o for_o this_o cause_n god_n shall_v send_v they_o strong_a delusion_n that_o they_o shall_v believe_v a_o lie_n that_o they_o all_o may_v be_v damn_v who_o believe_v not_o the_o truth_n but_o have_v pleasure_n in_o vnrighteousness_n and_o since_o this_o prophecy_n must_v needs_o be_v fulful_v it_o be_v high_o necessary_a that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n shall_v forewarn_v we_o to_o beware_v of_o all_o those_o false_a doctrine_n and_o corrupt_v and_o abominable_a practice_n which_o this_o grand_a impostor_n shall_v endeavour_v to_o obtrude_v upon_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n as_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n one_o of_o which_o the_o apostle_n caution_n we_o against_o in_o the_o word_n of_o my_o text._n let_v no_o man_n beguile_v you_o of_o your_o reward_n etc._n etc._n the_o text_n in_o the_o original_a be_v something_o difficult_a and_o have_v therefore_o occasion_v some_o difference_n in_o translation_n though_o none_o so_o great_a but_o that_o any_o one_o of_o they_o that_o i_o have_v see_v and_o i_o have_v consult_v several_a contain_v as_o direct_v a_o prohibition_n of_o the_o worship_v of_o angel_n as_o the_o greek_n itself_o for_o whether_o we_o render_v the_o word_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d let_v no_o man_n judge_v against_o you_o as_o beza_n or_o let_v no_o man_n condemn_v you_o as_o diodate_v or_o let_v no_o man_n master_n or_o govern_v you_o as_o the_o french_a or_o let_v no_o man_n seduce_v you_o as_o the_o vulgar_a latin_a and_o the_o rhemish_a translation_n or_o let_v no_o man_n beguile_v you_o of_o your_o reward_n as_o our_o translatour_n have_v render_v it_o it_o come_v all_o to_o one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n viz._n that_o no_o man_n upon_o earth_n have_v any_o power_n to_o impose_v upon_o we_o the_o worship_n of_o angel_n but_o whosoever_o go_v about_o to_o do_v so_o put_v a_o dangerous_a cheat_n upon_o we_o to_o the_o hazard_n of_o our_o eternal_a salvation_n the_o main_a difference_n that_o i_o can_v observe_v consist_v in_o join_v the_o word_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d as_o it_o may_v be_v indifferent_o either_o to_o the_o precede_a or_o follow_v word_n if_o we_o join_v it_o to_o the_o word_n that_o go_v before_o it_o the_o sense_n will_v be_v this_o let_v no_o man_n beguile_v you_o of_o your_o reward_n or_o condemn_v or_o master_n or_o seduce_v you_o willing_o arbitrary_o usurp_v over_o you_o a_o power_n and_o authority_n which_o be_v never_o commit_v unto_o he_o and_o so_o they_o will_v look_v with_o a_o malignant_a aspect_n upon_o his_o holiness_n pretend_v supremacy_n if_o we_o join_v it_o to_o the_o word_n that_o follow_v it_o the_o sense_n will_v be_v as_o our_o translatour_n have_v render_v it_o in_o a_o voluntary_a humility_n or_o be_v a_o voluntary_a in_o humility_n and_o so_o the_o worship_n of_o angel_n will_v appear_v to_o be_v but_o will-worship_n have_v no_o foundation_n in_o scripture_n these_o thing_n be_v premise_v i_o shall_v confine_v myself_o to_o our_o english_a translation_n which_o in_o my_o judgement_n be_v of_o all_o that_o i_o have_v see_v the_o most_o faithful_o render_v according_a to_o the_o original_a and_o out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o my_o text_n i_o shall_v observe_v this_o that_o no_o man_n whatsoever_o have_v any_o authority_n to_o impose_v upon_o we_o the_o worship_n of_o angel_n be_v a_o thing_n absolute_o unlawful_a and_o repugnant_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n for_o the_o proof_n of_o which_o proposition_n beside_o some_o other_o argument_n which_o we_o may_v produce_v the_o apostle_n furnish_v we_o with_o four_o in_o my_o text._n 1_o this_o worship_n of_o angel_n be_v a_o false_a and_o voluntary_a humility_n a_o will-worship_n invent_v by_o man_n not_o enjoin_v by_o god_n 2._o it_o proceed_v from_o a_o real_a and_o carnal_a pride_n he_o that_o go_v about_o to_o impose_v it_o upon_o we_o intrude_v into_o those_o thing_n which_o he_o have_v not_o see_v vain_o puff_v up_o by_o his_o fleshly_a mind_n 3._o it_o be_v high_o injurious_a to_o the_o incommunicable_a honour_n and_o prerogative_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n they_o that_o be_v guilty_a of_o it_o hold_v not_o the_o head_n 4._o it_o be_v destructive_a and_o deadly_a to_o our_o own_o soul_n and_o the_o end_n of_o it_o will_v be_v damnation_n for_o he_o that_o prevail_v with_o we_o to_o join_v in_o this_o worship_n beguile_v we_o of_o our_o reward_n first_o this_o worship_n of_o angel_n be_v a_o false_a and_o voluntary_a humility_n a_o will-worship_n invent_v by_o man_n and_o not_o enjoin_v by_o god_n of_o all_o the_o temptation_n with_o which_o satan_n be_v wont_a to_o assault_v our_o soul_n there_o be_v none_o so_o dangerous_a as_o those_o which_o he_o offer_v to_o we_o under_o colour_n of_o religion_n the_o common_a bait_n of_o sensual_a pleasure_n of_o worldly_a profit_n or_o honour_n and_o the_o like_a sinell_z so_o rank_a of_o the_o old_a serpent_n that_o he_o that_o have_v but_o half_a a_o eye_n may_v discern_v that_o there_o be_v a_o hook_n under_o they_o and_o it_o be_v mere_o the_o predominance_n of_o his_o corruption_n that_o prevail_v with_o any_o man_n to_o swallow_v it_o but_o when_o he_o assume_v the_o habit_n of_o a_o angel_n of_o light_n when_o instead_o of_o tempt_v we_o to_o vice_n he_o recommend_v to_o we_o some_o extraordinary_a grace_n and_o virtue_n as_o be_v not_o yet_o sully_v understand_v nor_o practise_v by_o we_o according_a to_o the_o true_a intent_n and_o meaning_n of_o the_o gospel_n it_o be_v not_o every_o man_n that_o will_v look_v for_o a_o cleave_a foot_n nor_o be_v able_a to_o discover_v it_o under_o such_o a_o sanctify_a disguise_n and_o it_o be_v no_o marvel_n that_o even_o some_o learned_a man_n have_v be_v impose_v upon_o by_o the_o stratagem_n now_o of_o all_o those_o excellent_a grace_n which_o the_o gospel_n require_v of_o we_o there_o be_v none_o more_o lovely_a and_o amiable_a none_o that_o do_v more_o adorn_v and_o beautify_v our_o soul_n and_o render_v they_o more_o please_v and_o acceptable_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n through_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n than_o humility_n and_o therefore_o no_o temptation_n can_v be_v more_o likely_a to_o prevail_v with_o person_n inclinable_a to_o devotion_n than_o one_o that_o be_v gild_v with_o the_o specious_a pretence_n and_o show_n of_o so_o incomparable_a a_o virtue_n upon_o this_o plausible_a foundation_n the_o grand_a enemy_n of_o our_o salvation_n establish_v the_o worship_n of_o angel_n among_o some_o heretic_n very_o early_o even_o in_o the_o apostle_n time_n which_o be_v the_o occasion_n of_o s._n paul_n give_v the_o colossian_n this_o necessary_a caution_n against_o it_o here_o in_o my_o text._n theodoret_n upon_o the_o place_n inform_v we_o that_o they_o that_o maintain_v it_o necessary_a to_o observe_v the_o law_n introduce_v also_o the_o worship_n of_o angel_n affirm_v that_o the_o law_n be_v give_v by_o they_o and_o this_o wickedness_n be_v long_o practise_v in_o phrygia_n and_o pisidia_n wherefore_o the_o council_n of_o laodicea_n which_o be_v the_o metropolis_n of_o phrygia_n make_v a_o canon_n on_o purpose_n to_o prohibit_v pray_v to_o angel_n and_o even_o to_o this_o day_n say_v he_o there_o be_v to_o be_v see_v among_o they_o and_o their_o neighbour_n oratory_n of_o s._n michael_n now_o say_v he_o they_o do_v this_o upon_o pretence_n of_o humility_n say_v that_o whereas_o god_n almighty_n be_v invisible_a incomprehensible_a and_o inaccessible_a therefore_o we_o ought_v humble_o to_o sue_v for_o his_o favour_n through_o the_o intercession_n of_o angel_n now_o i_o will_v fain_o know_v the_o difference_n betwixt_o that_o worship_n of_o angel_n which_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n call_v catholic_n and_o have_v declare_v to_o be_v good_a and_o profitable_a for_o we_o and_o this_o
