When therefore Rome had corrupted its Faith so earnestly celebrated when it ceas'd to be what it was before At what time under what Pope after what manner by what force with what encrease did another Religion invade the City and the World What Votes what Ryots what Lamentations did it beget All the rest of the World were asleep while Rome Rome I say had new Sacraments a new Sacrifice and a new Model of Religion on the Anvil Is there no Historian either Latin or Greek far nor near would lay this unto his Commentaries Therefore this certainly is evident if we do believe any thing much History and various the Messenger of Truth the life of memory would fluently speak and repeat it those things which they do obtrude no Modern relation can authorize in the Church The Historians are for me and my Adversaries Incursions very cold which cannot move any one unless 't is first received all Christians of all times fell into gross Treachery and into the Lake of Hell till Luther Ravish'd Bora. The Eighth Reason BUt most excellent Men when I consider the monstrous opinions of men concerning Heresies I had some with me which will come in the way to be Confuted I may condemn my self of Sloth and Madness if I should fear the faculty or force of any one in trying me Let him be Ingenious Eloquent let him be Active let him be well Read in Books he will necessarily seem dry when he shall Defend things so impossible he shall be disputed with if he refuses these of God of Christ of Man of Sin of Justice of the Sacraments of Manners I will see whether they dare to affirm those things which they think and those things which they accounting as necessary do divulge as the Scripture viz. God is the Author and cause of my Sin Willing Suggesting Effecting Commanding Labouring and Governing the Diabolical Counsels of the Wicked It was the proper work of God so was the calling of Paul the Adultery of David and the wickedness of the Traytor Judas This Monster which sometime Philip was ashamed of yet Luther from whom Philip had it as an Heavenly Oracle extoll'd it with wonderful praise and his Scholar for that he did not much differ from the Apostle St. Paul I will ask also of what Spirit Luther was whom the English Calvinists term a Man Divinely inspired to enlighten the World when he took this from the Litany of the Church Holy Trinity one God have mercy one us By and by I will go to the Person of Christ I will see what they would have to themselves there Christ the Son of God Son of the God Calvin God of himself Beza he is not begot of the Essence of the Father also their are two Hypostatical Vnions constituted in Christ one of the Soul with the Flesh another of Divinity with the Humanity There is a place in St. John I and my Father are one he doth not shew Christ God of the same Substance with the Father but my Soul also saith Luther hates this word 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 go forward Christ from his Infancy was not perfect in Grace but in the Dowries of the mind as other men he grew older becoming more wise by use so that the Youth Laboured with Ignorance which is as much truly as to say he was contaminated with Original Sin and Vice but know those things which are more horrid Christ when Praying in the Garden sweat Water and Blood was amazed with the sense of Eternal Damnation he cry'd out with a loud Voice without Reason without Spirit a sudden Voice with the Impetuosity of Grief which being not well Premeditated he severely rebuked Is there any thing more Christ when he was Nailed on the Cross cry'd out my God my God c. He was Kindled with the Flames of Hell he sent out the Voice of despair no otherwise affected than if he was in everlasting Death also they add what they can to these Christ they say Descended to Hell viz. being Dead tasted of Hell no less than the Souls of the Damned unless that they were restored by him For even as corporal Death profits nothing so the Soul also ought to struggle with everlasting death and after this manner weigh our wickedness and punishment and lest any one should by chance think that this crept into Calvin through neligence the same Calvin calls all them if any of them revolv'd that Doctrine of Comfort damn'd Knaves O the times you have nourish'd this Monster that delicate and Royal Blood which Sprung out of the torn and cleft Body of the Lamb every drop of whose Blood by means of the Dignity of the Host could redeem a 1000 Worlds profited nothing to manking unless the Mediator of God and Man Christ Jesus had made also the second Death the Death of the Soul the Death of Grace partaker of Sin alone Execrable Blasphemy Bucer will seem modest in respect of this madness altho he is impudent who accounts the Grave Hell in a symbol by a vain preposterous repetition and Tautology rather The English Calvinists have recourse to Calvin their Idol part to Bucer their great master part also have murmured against this article lest it should cause any more trouble since that 't was exempted from the Symbol without noise that also was attempted in a Conventicle at London I remember Rich. Cheney who was there told me so a very Old Man who had been injuriously Fin'd by the Plunderers abroad and could not enter into his Fathers House So far concerning Christ what concerning Man The Image of God was quite raz'd out in man no spark of good was quick in him his whole nature as to all the parts of his Soul was so extremely rever'd that truly he was not at all Holy there is nothing else within him but coruption and contagion To what purpose are are these things That they who got Glory by Faith only wallowing in the Dunghil of their filthiness may accuse nature despair of virtue and disburthen Precepts Hither Illyricus the chief of the Magdeburgenses added his direful opinion of Original Sin which he would have to be the inward substances of the Soul for those since Adams Fall the Devil procreates and makes like himself This also is trivial in this case all sins are alike so lest the Stoicks should revive they are weighed by God the Judge altho God that just Judge should add a heap to our Burthen rather than an easement and should heap up that which is not in the thing when he is just The Cook who killed a Dunghil Cock when there was no need of him did no less offend against God the righteous Judge than that Assassinator who Beza like being disguis'd in Drink killed the Duke of Guise a Prince of great worth with his Hand Gun than which Exploit the world never saw any thing in our Age more Dolorous and Lamentable But perhaps they which are in this state
