my mouth shal speak the truth But at this time condescending to our weaknesse made bone of your bones speaketh vnto you mouth to mouth And therefore the Lord breaking through the thicke cloude of all these precedent witnesses spake thus vnto vs And who will not giue heede vnto this voice Heare it Heare him The Lorde then will haue his sonne harkened vnto Iesus our Lord his well beloued sonne harkened vnto as being the teacher of saluation but farther let vs see by whom It is said that hee had taken apart Peter Iohn Iames the cheefest among the Apostles for to make them partake of that vision and by a coÌ„sequent of this lesson in their persons so much the more all the rest Gal. 2.9 Iames Cephas and Iohn saith S. Paul counted among the pillers of the Church Taking theÌ„ for afoundatioÌ„ of their doctrine this lesson this word Iames Iohn those whome Christ himselft hath honoured with the name of Sennes of thunder not being able to make a sound nor to thunder but according to the voice which hee giueth vnto theÌ„ Peter himselfe on whose confession he built his Church what greater honour could he receiue bound by his Apostleship to heare him to heare him for to teach it vnto others and not any thing of his owne Otherwise being subiect to this Anathema pronounced by God Whosoever will not harken vnto my wordes Deut. v. 19. which hee shall speake in my name I will require it of him And to harken is to obey for an Apostle and minister of the Gospell it is to cause others to obey An Anathema which hath since been doubled and expounded by S. Paul euen in the cause of S. Peter Gal. 1. 9. Though that we or an Angell from heaven preach vnto you otherwise then that which we hauepreached vnto you let him be accursed Anathema And indeed when the heaueÌ„ hath spokeÌ„ God through the heauen all the Angels of heauen what haue they to gainsay Yea what can they say Tou ching Gods matters to speake after God after the son of God which was sent and came down expresly to declare them vnto vs Who can doe this but the king of pride and the Angels of darknesse transformed into Angels of light You wil say then let vs heare him but are you of opinion that wee ought to heare him alone Yea truly alone For it is not without a mystery that it is noted by the Evangelist that as the voice was a speaking Iesus was left alone Moses and Elias beeing retired and giving him place how much more al other reachers all other men And if it be forbidden so expreslie vpon so high a paine to adde to or diminish from the law giuen by the ministery of Angels howe much the rather is it forbidden concerning the Gospell pronounced by the mouth of the Son of God light of light the word the everlasting wisdome of the Father whose doctrine cannot choose but bee perfect perpetual eternall Alone more over for who will be so presuÌ„ptuous as to dare set hand to his workmanship and after him to teachvs any way of salvation to prescribe vs any rule thereof after him to disclos vnto vs any mistery of ReligioÌ„ or any thing that might bee expedient for a heavenly life Lastly alone because there was but one Sonne whom it behoved to set an end to all the Law givers of Iuda one Prophet by excelleÌ„ce poiuted out to Moses by whoÌ„ God might reveale himselfe to the world opeÌ„ vnto vs the depths of his iustice and of his mercie This Christ said the Samaritan woman Ioh 4.25 which when he is come will tell vs all things And therefore saith this voice from heaven vnto vs Hunc audite pointing him vnto vs as it were with a finger heare him Him alone whom so many former ages so many herald haue gon before haue continually by succession preached vnto you if that wee ought to haue learned the way of salvation from any other by what path so euer hee brought vs thereunto to what purpose then neede wee haue come vnto him vnto him alone without interruption ever since the beginning of the world if any one might put in never so smal an helping hand with him to what end then is it that the law and the Prophets doe aime at him alone that Moses Elias were swallowed vp in him vanished out of sight before him This furniture of glory this voice from heauen God in his owne person being present at this charge was al this for to tell vs some thing either common or communicable to another Heare him my well beloved sonne Him in whom I am well pleased but for this time only but without preiudice to them that shall come after but with a reseruatioÌ„ of other rules of well beleeuing and well doing which shall from time to time be taught vnto you but if the meaning had bin that they shoulde haue rested here was there any need of this solemne transfiguration of so maiestical a preface As therefore when S. Iohn saith vnto vs of Iesus Behold the Lambe of God we consider in this Lambe all the typicall and Sacramentall Lambes both ended and accomplished after this Lambe we do no longer settle our mindes and hopes vpon any other that can take away or beare the sinnes of the world In like manner and that farre more strictly when God here saith vnto vs heare him This Iesus this Christ this Emmanuel God with vs my well beloued long before promised at this day exhibited the teacher of saluation the author of life that by his death for vs. Let vs thinke that in this Teacher in this Lawgiuer al others are accomplished and take an end let no man presume so far as to bring his lampe into the Christian church if he haue not lighted it at the beames of this Sunne all humane inuentions and rules being set aside as before times all strange fire was farre from the Lords Tabernacle from his altar from the censer from the Priest on paine of being deuoured A strange conclusion will some man here say vnto vs preveÌ„ted by so many positiue laws by so many new examples so many good rules We will there fore let him heare the Fathers Tertullian Let vs then hear him Tertul. l. 3. advers MarcionÃ© cap. 22. of whom God had from the beginning declared that he ought to be heard in the name of a Prophet because that for such an one hee was to bee esteemed among the people But was he alone so to be esteemed S. Cyprian Tertullians scholler and which verie likely had learned if from him saith That wee ought to heare Christ alone the father hath recorded it from heaveÌ„ saying Cypr ad Cicil. de sacrameÌ„t Dom. calicis Ep. 63 in edit Pamelia na c. Heare him Wherfore if we ought to heare Christ alone then ought wee not to minde what an other shall thinke

change May not men adde therunto some Laws some articles some new ceremonies Learne this my friend that the true religion as a man from his first birth hath all his members all his ioints any the least part cannot be taken from it thou findest it so in thine owne body without maiming it any the noblest that thou canst imagine cannot be applied vnto it out of the work with out disproportion without deformity without wronging the whole frame if any thing be in it more then should be it is extuberancie or some vnnaturall flesh that groweth out because that Religion is not a thing invented by man but by a diuine Law and the rule of Gods service and of mans saluation and none other but God can giue or enioine it vnto man because that his thoughts are aboue the thoughts of man and are higher then the heauens that are aboue the earth Cor. 2.1 because that no man knoweth the thinges of a man saue the spirit of a man not one man of another maÌ„ though they haue the same ofspring do consist of the same faculties and like parts but every one of himselfe And with much more reason then no man hath known no man hath ever beene able to know the things of God but the spirit of God Who art thou Esa 40 13 saith the Prophet that instructest the spirit of the Lord or art his couÌ„sailour to teach him any thing And hence it is that we see all those authours of religions among the heathen to haue bin so childish and ridiculous in their ceremonies and can we imagine that when wee vndertake to adde any thing to that religion which was ordeined from God by Iesus Christ wee should be less so theÌ„ they were can we thinke that the dirt and dust and smoke which we cast vpon it can any way honor nay canne it chuse but disfigure or pollute his worke And neuerthelesse do not thou think therfore that the Doctours in the church are vnprofitable or that they are not very profitable that the church her members all and euery one of them cannot helpe or grow vp Truely the right Religion can growe both in it selfe and in thee hath growne heretofore and can alwaies goe on in grouth But learne also how shee groweth She groweth in her selfe and even in thee also if thou canst make thine vse of it when the old Testament hath taught thee that it behooved the Christ of God to die and rise againe and the new that hee hath died indeed and is risen againe And beholde a sufficient clowde of witnesses of holy martyrs which many ages ago by hundreds and thousandes togither haue died for the witnes of this death of this resurrection by their suffrings and deaths haue subdued the world vnto him knit together vnder the banner of his crosse those which hee hath separated from the world dost not thou thinke that these articles I beleeue that he rose againe from the dead I beleeue the resurrection of the body are very well perfected by them well growne and strengthned both in them and in thee so far as to beleeue them and to embrace them euen to the death for this faith seeing that by this faith thou art to liue Behold also the lawe hath told thee that this Christ should be the son of God and neuerthelesse be borne of a Virgin and the Gospell that he is that Iesus that sonne of the living God God of God there fore from everlasting as the Father and that word nevertheles made flesh conceiued in the wombe of the Virgin Mary God and man both together Sundry heretickes Arius and Nestorius aboue the rest begin they to call in question some his eternity and Godhead and some his manhood and mortalitie and by a consequent the Character of the Saviour of the world wherevpon the Almightie through his spirit stirreth vp many great doctors froÌ„ al quarters powerful in the Scriptures which by the same doe ouercome and convince them doe demonstrate with efficacie in one only person as well the one as the other nature both the wills as well the one as the other to be necessarie for our salvation the one working without preiudice to the other And that by places well expounded and aswell applied and by arguments drawne from them both strong in themselues and as strongly vrged so that after many cumbats the field is left to the truth the victory glory to the simplicitie and to that seeming weaknesse of the Gospell Dost not thou thinke that these articles of our creed I beleeue in Iesus Christ the only son of the Father Almightie our Lord borne of the virgin Mary conceiued by the holy Ghost these very same in number as they vse to speak in the schools haue bred in thee a new impressioÌ„ in themselues new forces The like also is to bee thought of so many others for all that the hereticks doe set vpon theÌ„ which harden and make themselues strong against them and we by them as wrestlers against the skirmish according as the hereticks
