A77634 Sacred principles, services, and soliloquies or, a manual of devotions made up of three parts: I. The grounds of Christian religion, and the doctrine of the Church of England, as differing from the now-Roman. II. Daily, and weekly formes of prayers fortified with Holy Scriptures, meditations and rules to keep the soule from the common roads of sin, and carry it on in a mortified course. III. Seven charges to conscience, delivering (if not the whole body) the main limbs of divinity, which is the art not of disputing, but living well. Brough, W. (William), d. 1671. 1649 (1649) Wing B4991; Thomason E1339_1; ESTC R209131 186,268 487

difficulty_n because_o our_o christianity_n be_v purge_v from_o such_o corruption_n then_o i_o ask_v if_o he_o be_v mad_a that_o be_v to_o pass_v over_o a_o deep_a river_n will_v leave_v a_o bridge_n for_o a_o narrow_a plank_n be_v he_o wise_a that_o in_o the_o great_a case_n of_o eternal_a life_n and_o salvation_n will_v put_v his_o soul_n on_o a_o perplex_a and_o perilous_a way_n when_o he_o

with_o we_o for_o 1._o they_o confess_v with_o we_o scripture_n be_v infallible_a but_o we_o say_v not_o the_o pope_n the_o rule_n of_o faith_n say_v both_o but_o not_o tradition_n say_v we_o safe_a to_o believe_v the_o old_a creed_n both_o grant_n but_o a_o new_a one_o we_o deny_v to_o trust_v to_o christ_n merit_n sure_a with_o both_o but_o not_o to_o we_o with_o we_o both_o believe_v heaven_n and_o hell_n but_o we_o have_v no_o faith_n for_o purgatory_n the_o protestant_n then_o be_v the_o safe_a faith_n 2._o and_o to_o worship_n god_n they_o say_v with_o we_o be_v safe_a and_o profitable_a piety_n but_o to_o worship_v image_n we_o say_v be_v damnable_a idolatry_n we_o therefore_o be_v the_o safe_a worship_v 3._o and_o to_o pray_v to_o god_n in_o christ_n name_n both_o grant_v good_a religion_n but_o to_o call_v to_o saint_n for_o help_n or_o to_o god_n in_o their_o name_n we_o say_v gross_a superstition_n that_o therefore_o be_v the_o safe_a pray_v 4._o and_o in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o eucharist_n a_o sacrifice_n commemorative_n both_o grant_n but_o a_o propitiatory_a we_o disclaim_v a_o real_a presence_n both_o allow_v but_o the_o way_n of_o transubstantiation_n we_o reject_v the_o cup_n by_o institution_n and_o primitive_a observation_n we_o and_o they_o confess_v a_o power_n of_o alienation_n we_o abhor_v this_o therefore_o be_v the_o safe_a receive_v 5._o last_o in_o our_o liturgy_n be_v no_o error_n some_o of_o they_o say_v but_o in_o their_o missal_n be_v many_o say_v we_o service_n in_o a_o know_a tongue_n be_v not_o sinful_a with_o they_o but_o in_o a_o unknown_a unwarantable_a and_o against_o scripture_n with_o we_o therefore_o it_o be_v best_o to_o come_v to_o our_o church_n to_o service_n and_o prayer_n and_o so_o we_o by_o their_o confession_n and_o reason_n be_v the_o best_a religion_n to_o conclude_v upon_o my_o ground_n before_o i_o build_v all_o this_o the_o true_a christian_n have_v god_n word_n and_o seal_n
