Oratories and Eusebius testifying that Oratories were consecrated in Constantines time there is the like warrant and Antiquity for consecration of them as of Churches For my Chappell at Aberguelle I consecrated and put a name upon it as Saint Augustine saith wee dedicate Churches to Saint Peter for distinction sake and though I had a relation to the beheading of Saint John Baptist in my Dedication of it I hope there is no hurt therein For the patterne and furniture of the Chappell produced as if it were mine at Aberguelle it is a mistake for it is the patterne of Bishop Andrews Chappell and furniture which I caused to be written out as the indorsement of it proves viz. 1623. Chappell and furniture as it was in use by the Right Reverend Father in God Lancelot Andrewes Lord Bishop then of Winton I had no such furniture in my Chappell there For the Wafer basket and the rest they concerne not me yet Wafers have bin alwayes used and are at this day in the Greeke Church and in Westminster Abbey too Whereas it is objected that I hold there is a badge of Holinesse put upon our Churches and Chappell 's by a Bishops breath I answer no but there is an awsulnesse put upon them For my prayer at the laying of the foundation stone of Hamersmith Chappell there is no hurt nor superstition in it In fine I hope there is is no High Treason to bee found either in the one or other in consecrating Churches Chappell 's or foundation stones To this brave flourish of his for the Antiquity and lawfulnesse of the consecration of Churches of Chappell 's we shall returne a full reply To his Presidents taken out of the Old Testament we answer 1. That Moses had an expresse command from God Himselfe to consecrate the Tabernacle with all the vessells thereof by annointing them with consecrated Oyle Exod. 40. 10. 11 12. they being types of Christ to come but wee have no such command from God to consecrate Churches Church-Yards Chappels Altars Vestments which are no types of Christ already come Secondly This consecration was made by Moses the Temporall Magistrate not by Aaron the High Priest without any other ceremony then meer annoynting the Tabernacle and its Vessells implements with oyle Therefore no warrant for Bishops consecrating Churches Church-Yards Chappell 's Altars Vestments with other ceremonies without any anoynting them with oyle Thirdly this consecration was only Temporary Jewish ceremoniall abolished by Christs death Col. 2. 14. to 23. Heb. 7. 12. c. 9. 1. to the end and cap. 10 1. to 22. Fourthly King Solomon did not consecrate the Temple not the Vessells and Court thereof with Oyle as Moses did the Tabernacle but after hee had brought the Arke Tabernacle and all the Holy Vessells into it with praises thankesgivings instruments of Musicke and after the cloud and glory of the Lord had filled the House he made an heavenly prayer only in the middest of the Court not in the Temple before all the Congregation of Israel kneeling on his knees and spreading forth his hands towards heaven using no such prayers or ceremonies as the Bishop used and all the hallowing that we read of in this story is Solomons hallowing the middle of the Court that was before the house of the Lord and how was that only by offring burnt offerings and peace offerings 2 Chron. 7. 7. 1 Kings 8. 64. From which History and practise of his we shall observe 1. That if there were any consecration of this Temple it was made only by King Solomon himselfe not by the High Priest Priests or Bishops who now appropriate all consecrations of Churches c. to themselves alone Secondly That the Oracle of the house where the Arke was placed is called THE MOST HOLY PLACE even before and without any consecration of it at all 1 King 8. 6 10. 2 Chron. 5. 7. Therefore the consecration made it not most holy but only the use to which it was designed Thirdly That the Atke Tabernacle Vessells were brought into the Temple and praises thanksgivings there solemnly sung to God who manifested his presence there filling it with a Cloud and his glory so as the Priests could not stand to minister before Solomonmade is prayer which some tearme a consecration whereas this Archbishop fell to his consecration before any publike prayers thanksgiving Psalmes Service or Sacraments administred Fourthly That if this prayer were a consecration it was made only in the outward Court not in the temple it selfe whereas the Arch-bishops consecration was made in the Church not Church-Yard Fifthly That the Hallowing of the Court and so by consequence of the Temple if properly consecrated is by the text ascribed only to Solomons offering of burnt offrings meat-offrings and the fat of the Peace-offerings not to any other prayers exorcismes Unctions or Ceremonies which Offrings being long since ceased and not to be used by Christians the consecration of Churches and Church-Yards must likewise cease unlesse it bee onely by performing publike duties of Gods worship in them Therfore this president of Solomon and the Temple under the Law is no warrant at all for our Bishops consecrating of Churches Church-Yards Altars Vessells or Vestiments under the Gospell Fifthly the sanctifying and cleansing of the Temple and Vessells of it prescribed by Hezekiah but executed by the Priests and Levites was only the clean sing out of the Idols Jdolatrius Altars rubbish filth and uncleannesse of the Temple which they found and carried out thence into the Brooke Kidron with their scouring of the Vessells which had beene polluted as is plaine by the letter of the text 2 Chron. 29. c. c. 33. 15 16. compared together Therefore it makes nothing for any Episcopall consecration of Churches but only for keeping them cleane from filth and Idolls Sixthly that of Ezra 6. 16 17. is no warrant for the hallowing of Churches or Chappell 's For it only mentions That the Priests Levites and Children of Israel kept the Dedication of the house of God with joy and offered at the dedication of the house of God an hundred Bullockes two hundred Rammes 400. Lambs and for a sinne offering for all Israel twelve he-Goates according to the number of the Tribes of Israel And they set the Priests in their divisions and the Levites in their courses for the service of God But of any speciall Prayers Ceremonies Unctions and the like used at this Dedication by the Priests or people wee read not one syllable Therefore this their Dedication of the Temple was only their offering of burnt offerings of sinne offerings in it to God and ordering the services of the Priests and Levites in it Therefore no President for the consecration of Churches by our Prelates since such oblations such courses of Priests Levites are ceased with Christ Hebr. 7. 11. 12 18. Seventhly the Feast of Dedication mentioned John 10. 22. was not of the Temples Dedication but of the Altars instituted by Iudas Maccabeus

man and shall live and die in the suffrage of that Reverend Synod and doe confidently a vow that those other opposed opinions cannot stand with the Doctrine of the Church of England But if for the composing of our differences at home which your Lordship knowes to be far different from the Netherlandish there could have beene tendered any such faire propositons of accordance as might be no prejudice to Gods Truth I should have thought it an holy and happy project wherein if it bee not a fault to have wished a safe peace I am innocent In my Lord Bishops of SARVMS Answer Dated Ianuary 30. 1628. This passage was expunged AS for the aspertions of Arminianisme I can testifie that in our joynt imployment at the Synod of Dort you were as farre from it as my selfe And I know that no man can imbrace it in the Doctrine of Pradestination and Grace but he must first desert the Articles agreed upon by the Church of England nor in the Point of Perseverance but he must vary from the common Tenet and received opinion of our best approved Doctors in the English Church I am assured that you neither have deserted the one nor will vary from the other and therefore be no more troubled with other mens groundlesse suspirions then you would be in like case with their idle Dreames Thus I have c. Nathaniell Butter the Stationer perceiving these two letters not only extreamly mutilated but made altogether uselesse and his Book lesse vendible by these Purgations of the Licencer adventured to print these expunged passages in them whereupon he was apprehended and brought before Bishop Laud by a Pursevant committed Prisoner by him to the Fleet without Baile or maineprize contrary to the Petition of Right though he tendred baile his Bookes seized and afterwards Articled against in the High Commission and there almost ruined only for printing those deleted Passages in two of our owne Bishops Letters as was proved by the Testimony of Master Henry Burton and Michaell Sparkes senior committed to the Fleet by the Bishop at the same time by the Warrant of his commitment under the Bishops owne hand the Articles in the High Commission against Butter Artic. 4. 5. and his Answer thereunto produced in Court About the same time Nathaniell Carpenter Chapline to Archbishop Vsher published a Book intitled Achitophel or the Picture of a wicked Polititian printed at Oxford by Lycence wherein were divers passages against Arminianisme averring it to be planted among us by Iesuiticall Polititians to undermine our Religion by degrees and covertly to introduce Popery it selfe which Booke was presently called in and all the Passages against Arminianisme expunged by this Bishops Agents which done it was reprinted at London without them Anno 1629. to the great injury both of the truth and Author as was attested by Mr. Prynne Michaell Spark Senior and evident to all who will compare these two Editions What other passages against the Arminians and their Tenet have beene expunged in other Authors shall be given in evidence elsewhere We shall next produce some memorable Instances what countenance was given to Arminian Bookes and Sermons notwithstanding his Majesties Declarations and Proclamations to the contrary by this Archbishops meanes Doctor Thomas Jackson Chapline in Ordinary to his Majesty even sitting the Parliament soone after the Kings Declaration and Proclamation published A Treatise of divine Essence and Attributes part first printed at London 1628. for John Clerke Licensed by this Prelates Chaplaine dedicated to the Right honourable William Earle of Pembrooke in the very Epistle Dedicatory to this Noble Peere hee professeth himselfe AN ARMINIAN and Patron of their Tenets And Chap. 8. to 20. he professedly maintaines A mutability in Gods eternall Decrees of Election and Reprobation depending upon the actions and wills of men Universall Grace and Redemption with other Arminian Errors This Book though publikely complained of was never called in by the Bishop but the second part thereof printed by Licence An. 1629. and the Author of it advanced to the Presidentship of Corpus Christi Colledge in Oxford by this Bishop yea by him designed to bee Doctor of the Chaire though he missed that preferment to poyson the Vniversity of OXFORD with his Arminian Drugges An. 1630. Doctor Brookes of Trinity Colledge in Cambridge Writ an Arminian Treatise of Predestination with which he acquainted Bishop Laud who encouraged him in the worke recommending it to the perusall of Doctor Lindsey and Doctor Beale two great Arminians promising to peruse it himselfe as appeares by sundry Letters Whereupon Doctor Brookes returned this answer to him concerning it in Answer of this Bishops Letter to him seized in his Study by Mr. Prynne dated from Cambridge Dece 15. 1630. wherin there is this desperate passage worthy Observation MY LORD c. I Dare say That their doctrine of Predestination is the roote of Paritanisme and Puritanisme the roote of all rebellions and disobedient intractablenesse in Parliament c and of all Schisme and Saucinesse in the Country nay in the Church it selfe this hath made many thousands of our people and to great a part of the Gentlemen of the Land Laytons in their hearts Besides where nothing is done the weeds will over-grow the Corne as they doe For last Parliament they left their word Religion and the cause of Religion and began to use the name of Church and our Articles of the Church of England c. and wounded our Church at the very heart with her owne name And by pretence of putting downe Arminianisme and defence of that Church against which indeed they tooke up Armes so that now they that hold the very opinions of Penry and W●gington of Hacket and Coppinger in their beginning and others of whom some were hangd most imprisoned many deprived and some censured in the Starre-Chamber for seditious persons and Enemies to the Church of England they I say that hold the same opinions cry out now the Church of England and will have the Church of England to be theirs I could justifie this and much more but your Lordship knowes these things to be so better then I c. What grosse aspersions he here casts upon the Parliament and Anti-Arminians is so apparent as needs no explanatory or aggravating Commentary On the 27. of Novem. 1630. Doctor Martin this Bishops houshold Chaplaine a professed Arminian licensed a Booke for the Presse intituled An Historicall Narration of the judgment of some must learned and Godly English Bishops holy Martyrs and others concerning Gods Election and the Merits of Christs death set forth by I. A. of Ailward a late Seminary Priest and printed for Samuell Nealand 1631. The whole scope of this Book was to prove the Martyrs and first Reformers of our Church in K. Ed. the 6. and Q. Maries dayes and the beginning of Q. Elizabeths Raigne to be Arminians and Arminianisme the established Doctrine of our Church The first 66 pages of this Booke

and Cambridge Anno 1638. Tit. 7. Num. 12. If we will follow the course of the Ancient primitive Apostolicall Church we ought not to traduce or be offended at the name thing or use of Altar whereat A MANIFOLD SACRIFICE is offered to God What kind of Sacrifice this is Francis Sales thus declares in his Introduction to a Devout Life P. 191. 194. Vse then all diligence to be present often at this Heavenly Feast that with the Priest and other devout assistants thou maist joyntly offer up the fruit thereof Christ Jesus to God his Father for they selfe and all the necessities of holy Church The death and passion of our Redeemer which are actually and essentially represented in this holy Sacrifice with the Priest and the rest of the faithfull people thou shalt offer unto God the Father for his eternall honour and thine owne salvation Robert Shelford in his five Treatises seconds him in these termes Pag. 2. The Sacrament of the Altar in which the sacrifice of our Lord Christ is remembred and represented unto his Father P. g. 4. There the memory of the everlasting sacrifice is made and presented unto the holy Trinity Pag. 19. Here the great sacrifice of Christs death for our Salvation is in rememberance represented to God the Father c. Doctor Pocklington is very copious in this Theme in his Altare Christianum P. 130 Bishop Mountague saith thus I beleeve no such sacrifice of the Altar as the Church of Rome doth I fancie no such Altars as they imply though I professe a Sacrifice and an Altar And a little after speaking of his Adversaries hee saith thus I have so good opinion of your understanding though weake that you will confesse the blessed Sacrament of the Altar or Communion-table whether you please to be a Sacrifice c. Pag. 135. Abuses of Altars and sacrifices condemned not the things themselves Priests Sacrifices Oblations Altars The Sacrament of the Altar is not abolished P. 122. The Prophet Malachi saith Saint Justin Martyr did prophesie de Sacrificiis Gentium id est de paue Eucharistia poculo Eucharistiae It appeareth that St. Iustin that holy Martyr did call the Eucharist a sacrifice and hath the Prophet for his warrant Saint Ireneus also saith that when Christ tooke the Bread and the Wine Gratias eget he gave thanks and said the bread was his body and confessed the wine to be his bloud et novi Testamenti novam docuit oblationem and taught a new oblation of the New Testament which the Church receiving from the Apostles in universo mundo offert deo doth offer unto God in all the world This saith he is that pure sacrifice offered unto God in every place which the Prophet Malachi spake of before Pag. 124. Saint Chrysost How shall we receive this sacred host How shall we partake the Lords body with a defiled tongue For this sacrifice Domini sacrificium est This sacrifice the Priest standing at the Altar offereth to God for al the world for Bishops for the church c. according to our Collect on Good Friday Pag. 126. When the sacrifice of our Mediatour is offered it cannot be denied but the faithfull are hereby eased This oblation the same Father calls summum verissimum Sacrificium and saith that at the memories of Martyrs Deo offertur sacrificium Christianorum ipsum vero sacrificium corpus est Christi which is not offered to them for themselves are the body of Christ but unto God Pag. 127. It appeareth by that which hath beene said that there were Altars and oblations and sacrifices which the Fathers allowed To conclude this constant Doctrine of the holy Fathers concerning Altars Oblations and Sacrifices is confirmed by the Canons of sundry Councells Pag. 128. Altars Oblations and sacrifices were in Common use amongst the most holy Saints of God that ever lived Pag. 136. If there be no Christian Altar there is no Christian Sacrifice if no Christian Sacrifice there is no Christian Priest if there be no Christian Priest away with the Booke of Ordination of Priests and Deacons We shall close up this with Doctor Peter Heylins words in his Antidotum Lincolniense P. 6. 17. and 26. A Sacrifice it was in figure a sacrifice in fact and so by consequence a sacrifice in the Commemorations or upon the Post-fact A sacrifice there was among the Jewes shewing forth Christs death unto them before his comming in the flesh a sacrifice there must be amongst the Christians to shew forth the Lords Death till he come in Judgement and if a sacrifice must be there must be also Priests to doe and Altars whereupon to do it because without a Priest and Altar there can be no sacrifice yet so that the precedent sacrifice was of a different nature from the subsequent and so are also both the Priest and Altar from those before a bloudy sacrifice then an unbloody now a Priest derived from Aaron then from Melchisedech now an Altar for Mosaicall Sacrifices then for Evangelicall now for visible and externall sacrifices though none for bloudy and externall sacrifices Not an improper Altar and an improper sacrifice as you idlely dream of for sacrifices Priests and Altars being relatives as your selfe confesseth the sacrifice and the Altar being improper must needs inferre that even our Priesthood is improper also No Iesuit can or doth say more then this amounts to 6. That the body and blood of Christ are really and substantially present in the Eucharist and the Bread and Wine transubstantiated into them FRancis Sales in his Introduction to a devout life determines thus P. 194. 219. The death and passion of our Redeemer are actually and essentially represented in this holy sacrince Our blessed Saviour hath instituted the venerable Sacrament of the Eucharist which containeth really and verily his flesh and bloud Christs Epistle to a devout Soule thus seconds him Page 77. 78. Because thou maist be inflamed with a greater reverence love and desire towards this blessed Sacrament I assure thee that without all doubt my body is there Sacramentally delivered unto thee to be received under the forme of Bread Wherefore seeing it is the same body which I carry now glorified in Heaven seeing it is no other nor any like unto it but even the very same and seeing I carry not a body which is dead nor with out bloud it followeth of necessity that together in the same body there must be also conteined my soule my bloud my graces and my vertues To all which since the word is united it must also follow that the whole Trinity is present in this Sacrament as truly and as verily as they are in Heaven though in another kind id est under a Sacramentall forme The same opinion thou must in like sort have of the Chalice the new-testament in my bloud consider therefore that thou hast mee really and perfectly there Page 238. Make also every day to me in the honour of the holy Sacrament of my
