properly signifie to goe downe which is yet ascribed to God who properly cannot descend So that in that I have said I doe not deny the knee but I affirme that it is no more commanded then the soule or other parts of the body For the second part of this Section viz. the confession of the tongue you doe extreamely triffle with mee for you speake falsely in saying that I exclude the tongue of the body properly so called you see I mention it but I understand it not of the said tongue expressely and particularly but in a generall sense all tongues must speake as well as this tongue soule tongues and all bodily tongues the vertures of the whole creature yea as David saith all my bones shall say Lord who is like to thee Psal. 35. 10. even as the insensitive creatures that have no tongues are said to speake the praise of Christ * Yea you plainely agree with me here for you say no more then I and I as much as you you say the heart and tongue soule and body must be subject and so confesse Your acknowledging that irrationall creatures confesse Christ doth evidently overthrow your Tenet of the not bowing of those creatures for all that in the Text confesse doe also blow the knee seeing then these confesse they must needs bow so that you and I doe not greatly fall out in this Section if you could see it but you doe not see it as appeareth by your syllogisme the minor whereof I deny and have disproved SECT. IV. HEre I affirme that to understand this phrase in the Name of Jesus to be at the mention of the Name Jesus cannot be paralleld in the exposition of the said phrase by any Scripture In the name prefixed before any title of God yea I now say before any name whatsoever can no where beare this sense first you deny that you bow at the bare Name Jesus but of that before and you give me barbarous language in that I say you understand it at the mention of the Name Jesus But if you stood not in need of Hellebore as you say I doe you would not be so outragious in outfacing the plaine truth you say forsooth at the mention of Jesus but not at the name Jesus Who understandeth you now if you bow at the mention of Jesus it must be done as well at the mention of any other title of Jesus by which hee is denominated If not at the mention of the name Jesus why doe you keepe such a stirre about this name all the world sees that you bow at the mention of this name and no other and if you meane it not at the time when this name is mentioned why doe you it immediately and not let it alone till some other time you your selfe say otherwise in this Section {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} is all one {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} when Jesus is named Yea you yeeld at length and forsooth you say you will overcome mee with my owne weapons as when I say Psal. 118. 10. all nations compassed me about but in the Name of the Lord I will destroy them would it not be a wild sense say I to understand it thus at the naming of the Lord I will destroy them You here aske me if I were well when I printed this for say you can there be any more intended by In the name of the Lord then the bringing the Lord into the middest betweene him and his enemies and is there any other way to doe that then by the faithfull mention of his name Sir I was better when I printed this clause then you when you answered it but doe you expound this Text as you doe Phil. 2. 9 10 doth In there signifie time as you expound it in Phil. 2. and match it with Gen. 1. 1 In here indeed notes the cause but not time So that the meaning is this In the name of the Lord i.e. by the power and assistance of the Lord I will destroy them but if you will parallel this place with Phil. 2. 10. as you understand it you must make the sense to bee this All nations compassed me about but when the Lord is mentioned that is at the instant time thereof I will destroy them as at the very time when Jesus is mentioned you bow if this be the meaning of the Psalmist I see no reason but you must have a Sword or a Pistoll or such like with you at the Church and when the Lord is mentioned you must fall to killing your enemies and then when the people say good Lord deliver us if you have any enemies there they deliver up themselves into your hands to be killed and so you will not bee of Davids minde for he when his adversaries were against him gave himselfe to prayers but when your enemies pray you will kill them My next Scripture is Act. 9. 29. Saul spake boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus I say it would be infinitely absurd to say hee spake boldly at the naming of the Lord Jesus you cry out against mee and say is this absurd and infinitely too we all know that Paul was a zealous professor and might not he be stout at the mention or naming of Jesus he is stoutly preached whom we feare to name Now you cry out where is this great challenger were I Anteus I should never rise againe but stay Sir I am on my legges yet to buckle with you once and againe What doth In signifie time here as you wil have it signifie at Phil. 2. 9 Nomen capitur pro professione Name is taken for profession So the sense is this Paul valiantly defended the cause of Christ but if you will have In signifie the present time there then the sense will be this Saul preached or spake boldly when Jesus was named that is as soone as ever the Name was named as accordingly you bow Then it will follow that whensoever you heare Jesus named you must fall to preaching and then as soone as you come in the Common Booke of Prayer to the absolution Jesus being named you must fall to preaching and then you must curtaile almost all the Divine Service and run into that which you judge a great fault in others goe to your Sermon before you have said the Lords Prayer or Canonicall prayer though you should make but a short Sermon returne to your absolution at the conclusion of it Jesus is named againe and once more you must goe to preaching before you come to the Lords Prayer and if you preach every time Jesus is named in the divine service you will preach oftner in a day then any of those you call Puritans in a quarter of a yeare at least and if often preaching bee as you deeme a note of a Puritane you will be the rankest Puritane in the world yea in the absolution Jesus and Lord being both mentioned together you must preach and kill all
