A76079 A declaration demonstrating and infallibly proving that all malignants, whether they be prelates, popish-cavaleers, with all other ill-affected persons, are enemies to God and the King: who desire the suppression of the Gospel, the advancement of superstition, the diminution of the Kings prerogative and authority, with the oppression of the subject. All which is evinced by strong proofes, and sufficient reasons. By John Bastwick Dr. of Physick. Bastwick, John, 1593-1654. 1643 (1643) Wing B1061; Thomason E101_8; ESTC R1900 48,987 64

honour_n neither_o do_v ever_o the_o jew_n account_v of_o they_o as_o scripture_n yea_o to_o this_o day_n they_o reject_v they_o neither_o for_o these_o reason_n only_o be_v they_o distinguish_v

gold_n from_o lead_n without_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o father_n there_o be_v a_o vast_a difference_n between_o the_o apocrypha_fw-la and_o the_o canonical_a scripture_n then_o be_v between_o

will_v not_o christ_n and_o the_o apostle_n suffice_v the_o very_a papist_n that_o have_v not_o abjure_v all_o honesty_n and_o goodness_n do_v free_o acknowledge_v and_o confess_v that_o those_o only_o be_v canonical_a scripture_n which_o the_o apostle_n do_v either_o write_v or_o approve_v of_o but_o they_o do_v never_o approve_v of_o the_o apocrypha_fw-la the_o canonical_a scripture_n of_o

therefore_o to_o conclude_v this_o point_n the_o defendant_n say_v that_o the_o prelate_n be_v disgracer_n and_o contemner_n of_o holy_a scripture_n when_o against_o so_o much_o light_n of_o reason_n and_o divine_a authority_n they_o say_v they_o can_v be_v distinguish_v and_o know_v from_o the_o apocrypha_fw-la but_o by_o the_o father_n neither_o be_v the_o three_o thesis_n and_o position_n

will_v the_o poor_a people_n do_v to_o be_v save_v that_o never_o know_v what_o a_o father_n be_v nay_o how_o do_v all_o those_o go_v to_o heaven_n that_o die_v before_o the_o father_n for_o the_o

especial_o if_o it_o be_v so_o large_a a_o book_n and_o howsoever_o there_o be_v many_o depth_n in_o scripture_n there_o be_v also_o great_a perspicuity_n so_o that_o according_a to_o the_o ancient_a

of_o the_o father_n the_o meaning_n of_o they_o can_v not_o be_v know_v and_o find_v out_o then_o the_o defendant_n affirm_v they_o shall_v be_v inferior_a to_o all_o other_o writing_n yea_o to_o
