thou_o have_v deal_v with_o other_o so_o will_v god_n deal_v with_o thou_o also_o he_o will_v reward_v thy_o good_a deed_n and_o pardon_v what_o thou_o in_o ignorance_n have_v do_v amiss_o then_o

be_v the_o first_o character_n of_o the_o true_a worship_n take_v from_o the_o temper_n of_o the_o worshipper_n it_o be_v our_o saviour_n own_o rule_n you_o shall_v know_v they_o by_o their_o fruit_n and_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o gospel_n we_o know_v be_v peace_n charity_n humility_n and_o love_n love_n be_v the_o fulfil_n of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o great_a glory_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o where_o this_o virtue_n be_v want_v there_o can_v be_v no_o pretence_n of_o godliness_n no_o show_n of_o a_o christian_a church_n the_o next_o character_n may_v be_v take_v from_o the_o place_n of_o worship_n our_o father_n be_v worship_v in_o this_o mountain_n say_v the_o samaritan_n to_o justify_v their_o separation_n and_o so_o say_v the_o romanist_n unto_o we_o our_o father_n worship_v in_o this_o city_n the_o father_n of_o the_o church_n plead_v for_o we_o and_o antiquity_n be_v on_o our_o side_n and_o where_o be_v your_o church_n before_o luther_n to_o this_o the_o answer_n be_v as_o obvious_a as_o true_a our_o father_n worship_v at_o rome_n but_o not_o all_o our_o father_n for_o from_o the_o begin_n there_o be_v several_a pious_a and_o learned_a father_n and_o martyr_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n that_o own_a no_o dependence_n upon_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n there_o be_v then_o a_o roman_a but_o not_o a_o roman_n catholic_n church_n it_o be_v not_o christian_a humility_n and_o the_o primitive_a simplicity_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o pride_n and_o secular_a interest_n that_o move_v the_o late_a pastor_n of_o that_o church_n to_o bring_v all_o nation_n under_o their_o yoke_n it_o be_v that_o lordly_a humour_n which_o our_o saviour_n reprove_v in_o the_o son_n of_o zebedee_n when_o they_o strive_v to_o be_v account_v great_a tell_v they_o that_o this_o ambition_n more_o become_v the_o heathen_n than_o his_o disciple_n the_o king_n of_o the_o gentile_n you_o know_v exercise_v dominion_n but_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v so_o among_o you_o our_o father_n be_v worship_v at_o rome_n it_o may_v be_v so_o so_o do_v jacob_n in_o the_o mountain_n of_o samaria_n when_o the_o whole_a church_n of_o god_n consist_v only_o in_o he_o and_o his_o father_n house_n and_o yet_o this_o be_v no_o plea_n against_o the_o worship_n of_o the_o temple_n when_o god_n have_v choose_v that_o place_n for_o his_o habitation_n and_o our_o father_n who_o themselves_o worship_v at_o rome_n have_v not_o tell_v we_o that_o at_o rome_n be_v the_o place_n where_o we_o also_o ought_v to_o worship_n if_o there_o must_v still_o be_v one_o holy_a city_n to_o which_o all_o the_o tribe_n must_v go_v up_o certain_o jerusalem_n that_o city_n of_o peace_n have_v be_v a_o fit_a place_n for_o the_o seat_n of_o that_o universal_a empire_n than_o rome_n which_o be_v always_o the_o seat_n of_o war_n and_o only_o make_v great_a by_o tyranny_n and_o invasion_n upon_o all_o the_o world_n if_o that_o time_n of_o liberty_n be_v come_v when_o our_o worship_n shall_v not_o be_v confine_v either_o to_o the_o temple_n of_o jerusalem_n or_o the_o mountain_n of_o samaria_n we_o may_v also_o conclude_v that_o neither_o at_o rome_n shall_v we_o worship_v the_o father_n but_o yet_o our_o father_n worship_v at_o rome_n it_o be_v true_a but_o rome_n be_v not_o then_o what_o now_o it_o be_v their_o church_n and_o faith_n be_v then_o as_o glorious_a as_o now_o it_o be_v offensive_a to_o all_o the_o world_n it_o exercise_v then_o no_o unjust_a usurpation_n either_o upon_o the_o person_n or_o conscience_n of_o man_n but_o teach_v obedience_n to_o god_n and_o his_o vicegerent_n upon_o earth_n no_o man_n under_o what_o title_n soever_o sit_v in_o the_o seat_n of_o god_n impose_v upon_o the_o belief_n of_o other_o and_o create_v new_a article_n of_o faith_n but_o in_o all_o thing_n they_o submit_v themselves_o to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n as_o their_o only_a universal_a infallible_a judg._n and_o there_o be_v our_o church_n before_o luther_n and_o even_o before_o popery_n itself_o but_o now_o since_o her_o innovoation_n be_v multiply_v and_o she_o have_v depart_v from_o the_o truth_n no_o wonder_n if_o we_o forsake_v she_o in_o those_o thing_n wherein_o she_o have_v forsake_v christ_n and_o fly_v from_o this_o city_n because_o of_o her_o abomination_n her_o father_n which_o worship_v in_o that_o place_n will_v not_o now_o justify_v these_o degenerate_v child_n and_o since_o they_o boast_v so_o much_o of_o their_o antiquity_n we_o must_v needs_o reckon_v the_o date_n of_o their_o worship_n like_o that_o of_o the_o samaritan_n not_o from_o their_o father_n jacob_n a_o holy_a patriarch_n but_o from_o salmaneser_n a_o babylonish_n prince_n again_o our_o father_n worship_v in_o this_o mountain_n and_o therefore_o so_o do_v we_o say_v the_o samaritan_n thus_o also_o many_o among_o we_o say_v our_o father_n the_o apostle_n and_o primitive_a martyr_n of_o the_o church_n worship_v in_o mountain_n den_n cave_n and_o private_a house_n and_o therefore_o so_o may_v we_o also_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o apostle_n worship_v in_o the_o temple_n and_o public_a assembly_n also_o when_o they_o may_v be_v permit_v and_o it_o be_v only_o the_o iniquity_n and_o necessity_n of_o the_o time_n that_o drive_v they_o into_o private_a place_n which_o necessity_n be_v now_o remove_v a_o separation_n from_o the_o public_a assembly_n upon_o the_o bare_a account_n of_o christian_a liberty_n ground_v upon_o that_o practice_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v not_o move_v justifiable_a than_o that_o of_o the_o samaritan_n from_o the_o jewish_a church_n upon_o the_o authority_n of_o their_o father_n jacob._n it_o be_v as_o if_o we_o shall_v say_v our_o father_n the_o apostle_n admit_v none_o into_o the_o church_n by_o baptism_n unless_o they_o can_v first_o give_v a_o account_n of_o their_o faith_n and_o therefore_o now_o also_o it_o be_v unlawful_a to_o baptise_v infant_n that_o have_v no_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n or_o thus_o our_o father_n abel_n enoch_n and_o other_o be_v force_v to_o marry_v their_o own_o sister_n when_o there_o be_v no_o other_o woman_n in_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o we_o may_v do_v the_o like_a here_o we_o see_v what_o be_v commendable_a in_o the_o apostle_n be_v pernicious_a in_o we_o what_o be_v necessary_a in_o our_o forefather_n be_v abominable_a incest_n in_o our_o time_n so_o deceitful_a may_v a_o argument_n prove_v draw_v from_o the_o practice_n of_o our_o father_n if_o we_o make_v not_o allowance_n for_o the_o different_a circumstance_n and_o necessity_n of_o the_o time_n the_o three_o character_n of_o the_o true_a worshipper_n may_v be_v take_v from_o the_o object_n of_o their_o worship_n you_o worship_v you_o know_v not_o what_o say_v our_o saviour_n and_o so_o may_v we_o also_o say_v to_o the_o romanist_n you_o worship_v idol_n grave_v image_n relic_n sepulcher_n miraculous_a trifle_n superstitious_a legend_n and_o you_o know_v not_o what_o and_o though_o perhaps_o the_o more_o wise_a and_o learned_a of_o that_o communion_n may_v be_v so_o clear-sighted_a as_o to_o look_v beyond_o this_o veil_n of_o wood_n and_o stone_n and_o have_v a_o eye_n upon_o the_o true_a god_n who_o they_o thus_o false_o represent_v yet_o certain_o the_o ignorant_a multitude_n fall_v down_o and_o pay_v a_o real_a worship_n to_o these_o beggarly_a element_n and_o then_o how_o can_v they_o themselves_o be_v excuse_v who_o by_o these_o unwarrant_v practice_n have_v bring_v the_o people_n into_o idolatry_n the_o four_o and_o last_o remark_n upon_o the_o worshipper_n of_o these_o time_n may_v be_v concern_v the_o manner_n of_o their_o worship_n which_o our_o saviour_n have_v command_v to_o be_v in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n by_o spirit_n here_o we_o must_v understand_v first_o the_o faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n which_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o a_o man_n and_o second_o the_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o the_o first_o sense_n we_o be_v teach_v that_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n and_o we_o must_v worship_v he_o in_o our_o spirit_n all_o our_o thought_n and_o inward_a faculty_n must_v be_v employ_v in_o his_o service_n and_o we_o must_v adore_v he_o with_o all_o our_o heart_n our_o mind_n our_o soul_n and_o our_o strength_n our_o understanding_n must_v be_v clear_a and_o apprehensive_a of_o what_o we_o want_v our_o will_n must_v be_v ready_a and_o active_a to_o draw_v up_o our_o want_n into_o petition_n and_o our_o affection_n must_v be_v zealous_a and_o
