A05611	The ansvver of Iohn Bastwick, Doctor of Phisicke, to the exceptions made against his Letany by a learned gentleman which is annexed to the Letany it selfe, as articles superadditionall against the prelats. In the vvhich there is, a full, demonstration and proof of the reall absence of Christ in the sacrament of the Lords Supper, with the vanity and impiety of the consecreation of temples churches and chapples, also the necessity of the perpetuall motion and circulation of worship if men be bound to bow the knees at the name of Iesus. This is to follow the Letany as a second part thereof.; Litany. Part 2	Bastwick, John, 1593-1654.	1637 (1637)	STC 1573; ESTC S104507	58,802	32

reverence_v or_o why_o shall_v we_o leave_v the_o example_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n in_o the_o one_o and_o follow_v antichrist_n this_o i_o must_v confess_v i_o see_v no_o ground_n of_o neither_o in_o reason_n nor_o in_o scripture_n i_o have_v read_v that_o when_o god_n own_o ordinance_n come_v to_o be_v abuse_v to_o idolatry_n they_o be_v then_o abolish_v and_o it_o be_v well_o please_v unto_o god_n and_o i_o be_o full_o persuade_v if_o that_o kneel_v have_v be_v the_o gesture_n in_o christ_n time_n in_o their_o ordinary_a repast_n and_o meal_n and_o that_o christ_n himself_o with_o his_o apostle_n have_v kneel_v in_o the_o receive_n of_o that_o last_o supper_n yet_o if_o afterward_o it_o shall_v have_v be_v abuse_v to_o idolatry_n and_o have_v give_v a_o occasion_n of_o much_o dishonour_n to_o god_n and_o scandal_n to_o the_o brother_n i_o say_v i_o be_o confident_a it_o will_v have_v be_v well_o please_v unto_o the_o lord_n to_o have_v leave_v it_o and_o use_v a_o other_o but_o when_o neither_o christ_n nor_o his_o apostle_n use_v this_o gesture_n of_o veneration_n in_o receive_v of_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o it_o have_v be_v a_o occasion_n of_o great_a idolatry_n yea_o the_o great_a that_o ever_o be_v and_o be_v also_o a_o cause_n still_o of_o infinite_a dishonour_n to_o god_n and_o scandal_n to_o the_o weak_a and_o strengthen_n to_o the_o wicked_a idolater_n in_o their_o course_n i_o affirm_v and_o that_o upon_o most_o excellent_a reason_n that_o this_o gesture_n ought_v now_o to_o be_v leave_v and_o decline_v in_o the_o celebrate_n of_o that_o holy_a ordinance_n but_o it_o have_v indeed_o ever_o be_v the_o policy_n of_o the_o devil_n to_o corrupt_v the_o best_a thing_n he_o labour_v first_o to_o bring_v the_o people_n to_o a_o profanation_n of_o this_o ordinance_n and_o whereas_o they_o meet_v together_o to_o rejoice_v in_o remembrance_n that_o christ_n die_v for_o they_o and_o be_v rise_v again_o to_o free_a and_o deliver_v they_o from_o death_n they_o in_o their_o rejoice_v begin_v to_o exceed_v moderation_n and_o to_o dishonour_n god_n in_o the_o abuse_n of_o his_o creature_n saint_n paul_n therefore_o to_o prevent_v this_o write_v unto_o they_o reprove_v they_o for_o this_o so_o great_a abuse_n and_o tell_v they_o that_o such_o disorder_n bring_v a_o judgement_n upon_o they_o rather_o than_o ablessing_n and_o wish_v they_o to_o examine_v themselves_o and_o to_o take_v notice_n that_o it_o be_v a_o ordinance_n of_o god_n himself_o set_v forth_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o great_a deliverance_n they_o have_v by_o it_o from_o the_o captivity_n and_o slavery_n of_o sin_n and_o satan_n and_o that_o as_o they_o be_v redeem_v by_o his_o death_n and_o suffering_n from_o that_o servitude_n to_o be_v the_o servant_n of_o christ_n and_o not_o to_o be_v any_o long_o at_o the_o slavery_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o to_o do_v his_o work_n by_o disorder_v themselves_o so_o they_o shall_v prepare_v themselves_o &_o remove_v wickedness_n out_o of_o their_o heart_n and_o action_n &_o shall_v come_v with_o true_a thankfulness_n unfeigned_a faith_n and_o true_a love_n towards_o god_n charity_n towards_o their_o neibour_n &_o with_o all_o sanctify_a affection_n unto_o his_o holy_a ordinance_n that_o so_o they_o may_v procure_v a_o blessing_n upon_o themselves_o by_o it_o and_o not_o bring_v down_o judgment_n upon_o their_o head_n by_o their_o inordinat_a carriage_n there_o and_o this_o be_v all_o the_o apostle_n aim_v at_o in_o that_o chapter_n must_v we_o therefore_o by_o and_o by_o think_v because_o the_o apostle_n reprove_v they_o of_o irreverence_n and_o disorder_n therefore_o he_o do_v licence_n idolatry_n and_o the_o worship_n of_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n as_o we_o say_v in_o our_o common_a discourse_n there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o stare_v and_o stark_o mad_a so_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o difference_n between_o reverence_n and_o idolatry_n the_o one_o be_v by_o the_o apostle_n indeed_o in_o this_o chapter_n command_v the_o other_o in_o the_o ten_o chapter_n as_o high_o displease_v unto_o god_n be_v

abominable_a blasphemy_n then_o we_o well_o perceive_v that_o there_o may_v be_v reverence_n in_o the_o sacrament_n where_o there_o be_v no_o kneel_v and_o yet_o these_o hypocrite_n call_v it_o
