A11924	A Godlye sermon preached before the Queens Most Excellent Maiestie vpon the 17, 18, 19 verses of the 16 chapter of S. Mathew vvherein is contained the conclusion of a dialogue betweene Christ and his disciples, shewing breefely that the authoritie which the Pope of Rome doth challenge to himselfe is vnlawfully vsurped : very necessarie for these perilous times wherein the simple may perceiue their intollerable impietie, vsurping that office and action which euer appertayned vnto Christ only : published at the request of sundry godly and well disposed persons.		1585 (1585)	STC 22237; ESTC S2330	39,008	98

hell_n who_o he_o will_v that_o he_o have_v power_n to_o assoil_v man_n sin_n and_o to_o deliver_v they_o both_o a_o pena_fw-la &_o culpa_fw-la both_o from_o the_o fault_n &_o penalty_n and_o to_o

the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n it_o shall_v be_v needless_a to_o deal_v with_o they_o at_o this_o present_a only_o that_o be_v needful_a to_o show_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o key_n of_o the_o

12.52_o for_o you_o have_v take_v away_o the_o key_n of_o knowledge_n you_o enter_v not_o in_o yourselves_o and_o they_o that_o come_v you_o forbid_v in_o which_o word_n our_o saviour_n christ_n term_v the_o true_a interpretation_n of_o the_o law_n and_o preach_v of_o the_o gospel_n the_o key_n of_o knowledge_n for_o it_o be_v that_o the_o scribe_n &_o pharise_n do_v suppress_v &_o
