A64611 The summe of Christian religion, delivered by Zacharias Ursinus first, by way of catechism, and then afterwards more enlarged by a sound and judicious exposition, and application of the same : wherein also are debated and resolved the questions of whatsoever points of moment have been, or are controversed in divinitie / first Englished by D. Henry Parry, and now again conferred with the best and last Latine edition of D. David Pareus, sometimes Professour of Divinity in Heidelberge ; whereunto is added a large and full alphabeticall table of such matters as are therein contained ; together with all the Scriptures that are occasionally handled, by way either of controversie, exposition, or reconciliation, neither of which was done before, but now is performed for the readers delight and benefit ; to this work of Ursinus are now at last annexed the Theologicall miscellanies of D. David Pareus in which the orthodoxall tenets are briefly and solidly confirmed, and the contrary errours of the Papists, Ubiquitaries, Antitrinitaries, Eutychians, Socinians, and Arminians fully refuted ; and now translated into English out of the originall Latine copie by A.R. Ursinus, Zacharias, 1534-1583.; Parry, Henry, 1561-1616.; Pareus, David, 1548-1622. Theologicall miscellanies.; A. R. 1645 (1645) Wing U142; ESTC R5982 1,344,322 1,128

withal_o or_o for_o some_o dangerous_a kind_n of_o ornament_n 2._o whether_o all_o worship_v at_o image_n be_v forbid_v and_o may_v not_o in_o any_o sort_n be_v defend_v to_o this_o question_n we_o make_v answer_v out_o of_o the_o second_o part_n of_o the_o commandment_n which_o simple_o forbid_v we_o to_o impart_v divine_a honour_n and_o worship_n to_o image_n and_o picture_n not_o only_o that_o which_o be_v give_v thereby_o or_o refer_v to_o creature_n but_o also_o which_o be_v refer_v to_o the_o true_a god_n thou_o shall_v not_o bow_v down_o to_o they_o nor_o worship_v they_o object_n 1._o we_o worship_v not_o the_o image_n say_v the_o papist_n but_o god_n of_o who_o those_o be_v sign_n and_o token_n according_a to_o those_o versicle_n of_o the_o second_o nicene_n council_n that_o which_o the_o image_n show_v be_v god_n the_o image_n itself_o be_v not_o god_n look_v on_o the_o image_n but_o worship_n in_o thy_o heart_n that_o which_o thou_o behold_v therein_o and_o according_a to_o those_o of_o thomas_n whensoever_o thou_o pass_v by_o the_o image_n of_o christ_n see_v thou_o do_v obeisance_n yet_o worship_v not_o the_o image_n but_o worship_n that_o which_o the_o image_n represent_v answ_n 1._o we_o deny_v that_o image_n be_v sign_n of_o god_n because_o god_n can_v be_v true_o signify_v by_o they_o see_v he_o be_v immense_a and_o though_o he_o can_v yet_o he_o ought_v not_o because_o he_o have_v express_o forbid_v they_o and_o because_o it_o be_v not_o in_o the_o power_n of_o any_o creature_n to_o ordain_v or_o establish_v any_o sign_n whereby_o to_o signify_v god_n but_o only_o in_o the_o will_n and_o pleasure_n of_o god_n answ_n 2._o in_o this_o argument_n our_o adversary_n tender_a and_o allege_v unto_o we_o a_o false_a and_o needless_a cause_n for_o not_o only_o the_o worship_v of_o image_n be_v the_o cause_n and_o form_n of_o idolatry_n but_o even_o the_o very_a worship_n of_o god_n also_o which_o be_v give_v to_o image_n or_o other_o creature_n beside_o or_o contrary_n to_o his_o word_n 32.5_o 1_o king_n 12.28_o exod._n 32.5_o as_o the_o story_n of_o aaron_n and_o jeroboam'_v calf_n do_v sufficient_o declare_v for_o though_o these_o man_n say_v behold_v o_o israel_n thy_o god_n which_o bring_v thou_o up_o etc._n etc._n to_o morrow_n shall_v be_v the_o holy_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n yet_o god_n both_o detest_a and_o severe_o punish_v those_o worship_n as_o horrible_a and_o abominable_a idolatry_n wherefore_o howsoever_o idolater_n pretend_v the_o name_n and_o honour_n of_o god_n yet_o in_o idol_n not_o god_n but_o the_o devil_n be_v worship_v according_a as_o paul_n testify_v of_o the_o gentile_n 10.12_o 1_o cor._n 10.12_o these_o thing_n which_o the_o gentile_n sacrifice_n to_o idol_n they_o sacrifice_v etc._n etc._n though_o even_o they_o also_o in_o their_o worshipping_n pretend_v the_o name_n and_o honour_n of_o god_n object_n 2._o the_o honour_n which_o be_v give_v unto_o the_o sign_n be_v the_o honour_n of_o the_o thing_n signify_v image_n be_v a_o sign_n of_o god_n therefore_o the_o honour_n which_o be_v give_v unto_o image_n be_v also_o give_v unto_o god_n answ_n we_o again_o deny_v the_o minor_a or_o distinguish_v of_o the_o major_a thus_o the_o honour_n of_o the_o sign_n be_v also_o the_o honour_n of_o the_o thing_n signify_v namely_o when_o the_o sign_n be_v a_o true_a sign_n that_o be_v ordain_v by_o he_o who_o have_v authority_n to_o ordain_v it_o and_o when_o also_o that_o honour_n be_v give_v to_o the_o sign_n which_o the_o right_a and_o lawful_a author_n of_o it_o will_v have_v do_v to_o the_o sign_n for_o not_o the_o will_n of_o he_o that_o honour_v but_o of_o he_o that_o be_v honour_v be_v the_o rule_n which_o must_v prescribe_v the_o due_a honour_n now_o whereas_o god_n have_v forbid_v both_o these_o namely_o that_o image_n shall_v be_v erect_v to_o he_o and_o that_o himself_o shall_v be_v honour_v at_o image_n erect_v to_o he_o or_o to_o any_o creature_n he_o be_v not_o honour_v but_o contumelious_o wrong_v and_o reproach_v when_o any_o honour_n do_v to_o image_n be_v fasten_v on_o he_o repl._n whatsoever_o contumely_n be_v do_v to_o the_o sign_n that_o redound_v on_o god_n although_o the_o sign_n be_v not_o institute_v by_o his_o commandment_n therefore_o the_o honour_n also_o that_o be_v give_v to_o the_o sign_n redound_v on_o god_n although_o that_o honour_n be_v not_o command_v to_o be_v give_v to_o the_o sign_n answ_n this_o reason_n do_v not_o follow_v because_o then_o be_v contrary_a thing_n right_o attribute_v to_o contrary_n when_o the_o contrariety_n of_o the_o attribute_n depend_v of_o that_o according_a to_o which_o the_o subject_n be_v oppose_v and_o not_o of_o some_o other_o thing_n so_o we_o grant_v that_o contumely_n against_o god_n follow_v indeed_o the_o contumely_n against_o the_o sign_n albeit_o the_o sign_n be_v not_o institute_v by_o god_n but_o not_o simple_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o sign_n itself_o unto_o which_o that_o contumely_n be_v do_v but_o in_o respect_n of_o his_o corrupt_a and_o bad_a will_n who_o by_o show_v contumely_n against_o the_o sin_n which_o be_v think_v to_o

suffice_v if_o there_o be_v any_o intent_n or_o purpose_n of_o depart_v from_o his_o commandment_n but_o if_o through_o a_o desire_n that_o we_o have_v to_o avoid_v idolatry_n we_o detest_v image_n and_o other_o false_a repute_a sign_n of_o god_n by_o this_o contumely_n do_v to_o the_o sign_n we_o rather_o promote_v further_o and_o advance_v god_n glory_n but_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n do_v

that_o suffice_v to_o the_o do_v of_o honour_n unto_o god_n but_o the_o manner_n also_o which_o himself_o have_v prescribe_v whereby_o to_o be_v honour_v be_v require_v and_o must_v be_v observe_v

signify_v that_o man_n shall_v after_o the_o example_n of_o god_n himself_o rest_n from_o their_o labour_n and_o especial_o from_o sin_n and_o afterward_o in_o moses_n law_n this_o commandment_n be_v again_o repeat_v and_o then_o with_o all_o be_v the_o ceremony_n of_o cease_v from_o labour_n on_o the_o seven_o day_n ordain_v to_o be_v a_o sacrament_n that_o be_v a_o sign_n and_o token_n of_o that_o sanctify_a whereby_o god_n signify_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o sanctifier_n of_o his_o church_n that_o be_v to_o pardon_v she_o all_o her_o sin_n and_o offence_n to_o receive_v she_o to_o

accomplish_v and_o perfect_v for_o and_o by_o the_o messiah_n promise_v to_o the_o father_n and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o ceremonial_a sabbath_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v now_o abolish_v namely_o because_o it_o be_v typical_a admonish_v the_o people_n of_o their_o own_o duty_n towards_o god_n of_o god_n benefit_n towards_o they_o which_o be_v to_o be_v perform_v by_o

christ_n by_o who_o that_o be_v fulfil_v that_o they_o signify_v but_o although_o the_o ceremonial_a sabbath_n be_v abrogate_a and_o disannul_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n yet_o the_o moral_a sabbath_n continue_v still_o and_o belong_v unto_o we_o and_o do_v still_o remain_v which_o be_v that_o some_o time_n be_v to_o be_v allot_v for_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o church_n for_o as_o heretofore_o in_o the_o jewish_a church_n so_o now_o in_o the_o christian_a church_n we_o must_v ever_o have_v some_o day_n wherein_o the_o word_n of_o god_n may_v be_v teach_v in_o the_o church_n and_o the_o sacrament_n administer_v but_o nevertheless_o we_o be_v not_o restrain_v or_o tie_v to_o have_v either_o saturday_n or_o wednesday_n or_o any_o other_o certain_a day_n for_o the_o apostolic_a church_n to_o distinguish_v itself_o from_o the_o jewish_a synagogue_n according_a to_o the_o liberty_n wherewith_o she_o be_v enfranchise_v by_o christ_n instead_o of_o the_o seven_o day_n have_v on_o good_a reason_n make_v choice_n of_o the_o first_o day_n namely_o because_o on_o that_o day_n be_v christ_n resurrection_n whereby_o the_o spiritual_a and_o internal_a sabbath_n be_v begin_v in_o we_o brief_o the_o sabbath_n do_v not_o belong_v to_o we_o ceremonial_o in_o special_a and_o particular_a albeit_o it_o do_v belong_v to_o we_o and_o so_o to_o all_o man_n and_o ever_o continue_v both_o moral_o and_o ceremonial_o in_o general_a that_o be_v we_o must_v have_v some_o day_n wherein_o the_o church_n may_v be_v instruct_v and_o the_o sacrament_n administer_v but_o we_o be_v not_o tie_v to_o any_o certain_a day_n sabbath_n object_n against_o the_o abrogate_a of_o the_o ceremonial_a sabbath_n the_o jew_n against_o the_o abrogation_n of_o the_o ceremonial_a sabbath_n thus_o urge_v ob._n 1._o the_o decalogue_n be_v a_o perpetual_a law_n the_o commandment_n of_o the_o sabbath_n be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o decalogue_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o perpetual_a law_n and_o not_o to_o be_v abolish_v ans_fw-fr the_o decalogue_n be_v a_o perpetual_a law_n as_o it_o be_v a_o moral_a law_n but_o the_o addition_n or_o circumstance_n and_o limitation_n of_o the_o moral_a
