Diuers condemned one anothers Decrees Iohn the twelfth and vnder Sergius the third Martine the fift Iohn the twenty three chose himselfe Pope Damas 2. Now to conclude with Cornelius Agrippa de Vanitat Hee hauing spoken of the wickednesse of Popes in generall saith I passe by those other monsters of the Roman Popes such as was Formosus and those nine that followed which sometime ruled filthily in the Church I say nothing also of those latter Popes Paul the second Sixtus the fourth Alexander the sixt Iulius the second the most famous troublers of the Christian world besides Eugenius which for breaking faith with the Turke did cast all the Christian Common-wealth into most mortall and bloudy warres as if faith were not to be kept with an enemie Moreouer how much danger Alexander the sixt brought to the Christians by taking away by poyson Zizimus Pazaithe the Turkes brother is sufficiently knowne vnto all men Thus farre Cornelius cap. 6. Thus did not Peter who taught faithfully preached Christ diligently and sought and taught peace amongst men was holy humble and sober in conuersation and in the end gaue his life for the truth The Pope therefore in life being thus contrary vnto Peter is the successour of Antechrist not of Peter Now come wee to examine the Doctrine And first for Iustification AS for the Law that should haue condemned vs for euer Christ hath satisfied his Fathers wrath and hath fulfilled it for vs and no man in the world could haue done it but he Esay 53. 5. Hee was wounded for our transgressions and by his stripes wee are healed 2 Cor. 5. 11. He which knew no sinne was made sinne for vs that we might be made the c. Christ was made sinne by imputation that we might be made righteous before God by imputation of his righteousnesse to vs Rom. 5. 19. As by one mans disobedience many were made sinners c. Note a comparison betweene Adam and Christ Iob 9. 2. How shall man compared with God be iustified Rom. 3. 10. 11. 12. They haue gone all out of the way c. Rom. 4. 5.

Whom he hath called them also he hath iustified 1 Cor. 4. 4. See from these places I reason thus If Christ hath satisfied the Law for vs If hee be our peace with God If by his stripes we be healed If his righteousnes be ours by imputation onely If by his obedience only we be made righteous If there be none that can doe good no not one If iustified thorow faith wee haue peace with God If saued by grace not of workes If neuer so righteous yet wee are not thereby iustified Then our Iustfication is plainly without vs and it commeth onely by Christs righteousnesse imputed and by faith receined Though these be as euident as the Sunne at noone yet they cauill with vs from other places of Scripture to maintaine Iustification from our selues or at least to part stakes with Christ Papists first place Psal 7. 8 Iudge me O Lord according to my righteousnesse Solut. This is not spoken of our righteousnesse before God but Dauid being falsly accused vnto Saul by his enemies his heart being free from any intention of euill against him desires God to be Iudge betweene him and them and therefore this serueth not for the Iustification of a sinner before God The second place 2 Corint 4 14.

Goe wash seauentimes Againe Iob 4. 2. Offered seauen Bullockes and seauen Rammes seauen Starres seauen Candlestickes These are too idle to be answered and therefore I leaue them to former answers for this number may as well ferue for a mysterie of iniquitie Reuel 17. 18. Sacraments both in the old and new Testament were of Gods ordinance men may not make Sacraments Christ putting an end to the olde Testament was the Authour of the Sacraments of the new Testament and appointing outward signes of holy things hee instituted two Baptisme and the Sacrament of the Lords Supper no more are to be found in the new Testament of his making or commandement The first he sanctified in his owne person Mat. 3. 16. for he was baptized of Iohn The same he commended and commanded to his Apostles after his resurrection Mat. 28. 19. The Lords Supper this he instituted and ministred in his owne person also Luke 22. 19. commaunding to doe this in the remembrance of him The remission of sinnes is represented in Baptisme Acts 2. 38 The death of Christ is set forth in the Lords Supper 1 Corinth 11. 26.
