of_o any_o creature_n be_v a_o sin_n as_o be_v a_o transgression_n of_o this_o precept_n 2_o dly_z hence_o it_o must_v follow_v that_o this_o sin_n be_v plain_a idolatry_n for_o idolatry_n consist_v in_o give_v that_o reverence_n and_o affection_n to_o the_o creature_n which_o be_v due_a only_a to_o the_o creator_n if_o therefore_o no_o degree_n of_o love_n or_o of_o desire_n be_v due_a unto_o the_o creature_n but_o to_o the_o creator_n only_o by_o love_v or_o desire_v the_o creature_n in_o any_o degree_n whatsoever_o we_o must_v give_v the_o affection_n to_o the_o creature_n which_o be_v only_o due_a to_o the_o creator_n and_o therefore_o must_v be_v guilty_a of_o idolatry_n hence_o suitable_o to_o their_o opinion_n it_o be_v assert_v 62._o that_o the_o creature_n be_v no_o more_o our_o good_n than_o our_o god_n and_o we_o may_v as_o well_o worship_v they_o as_o love_v they_o and_o again_o p._n 77_o 78._o as_o to_o worship_v the_o creature_n though_o but_o relative_o be_v to_o give_v that_o worship_n to_o the_o creature_n which_o be_v proper_a to_o god_n so_o to_o love_v the_o creature_n though_o but_o relative_o be_v to_o give_v that_o love_n to_o the_o creature_n which_o be_v proper_a to_o god_n i_o can_v see_v why_o one_o shall_v not_o be_v reckon_v idolatry_n as_o well_o as_o the_o other_o now_o idolatry_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v frequent_o declare_v to_o be_v a_o damn_v sin_n 3.5_o which_o they_o that_o do_v shall_v not_o inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n no_o idolater_n have_v any_o inheritance_n in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n or_o of_o christ_n but_o in_o the_o lake_n of_o fire_n and_o brimstone_n which_o be_v the_o second_o death_n so_o that_o according_a to_o this_o new_a divinity_n if_o i_o desire_v fire_n as_o my_o good_a when_o i_o be_o starve_v with_o cold_a i_o shall_v be_v cast_v into_o hell_n fire_n and_o if_o i_o love_v a_o woman_n and_o so_o desire_v she_o for_o a_o wife_n i_o must_v be_v exclude_v from_o heaven_n because_o i_o love_v and_o i_o desire_v a_o creature_n moreover_o these_o letter_n lay_v this_o down_o for_o certain_a 203._o that_o he_o that_o desire_v any_o thing_n beside_o god_n whatever_o he_o pretend_v or_o however_o he_o deceive_v himself_o do_v not_o true_o love_v god_n and_o that_o whenever_o the_o soul_n move_v towards_o the_o creature_n it_o must_v necessary_o forsake_v the_o creator_n and_o that_o it_o can_v never_o true_o turn_v to_o he_o without_o a_o dereliction_n of_o all_o beside_o he_o now_o if_o it_o can_v true_o love_v he_o it_o never_o can_v be_v love_v by_o he_o if_o it_o can_v never_o true_o turn_v to_o he_o it_o can_v never_o be_v convert_v and_o so_o it_o never_o can_v be_v save_v if_o it_o forsake_v the_o creator_n by_o desire_v or_o move_v towards_o any_o creature_n it_o must_v perish_v for_o say_v the_o prophet_n all_o that_o forsake_v thou_o shall_v be_v ashamed_a 17.13_o and_o consume_v now_o be_v it_o not_o strange_a doctrine_n to_o affirm_v as_o certain_a that_o we_o can_v true_o love_v god_n if_o we_o desire_v our_o daily_a bread_n that_o i_o forsake_v god_n if_o i_o move_v towards_o meat_n when_o i_o be_o hungry_a or_o drink_v when_o i_o be_o thirsty_a such_o doctrine_n as_o these_o tend_v plain_o to_o persuade_v man_n that_o god_n require_v what_o they_o find_v opposite_a to_o their_o very_a constitution_n and_o be_v in_o this_o world_n and_o so_o impossible_a for_o they_o to_o perform_v and_o live_v and_o this_o must_v render_v the_o high_a act_n of_o our_o religion_n the_o divine_a love_n ridiculous_a to_o some_o and_o drive_v the_o weak_a sort_n of_o people_n into_o despair_n by_o give_v they_o occasion_n to_o think_v they_o do_v not_o love_n god_n true_o or_o as_o they_o ought_v because_o they_o by_o experience_n find_v they_o love_v a_o dish_n of_o good_a meat_n and_o a_o cup_n of_o good_a drink_n and_o can_v but_o desire_v the_o one_o when_o they_o be_v hungry_a and_o the_o other_o when_o thirsty_a in_o opposition_n to_o this_o new_a opinion_n i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o show_v first_o that_o it_o be_v manifest_o and_o express_o contrary_a to_o the_o plain_n dictate_v of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o the_o experience_n and_o reason_n of_o mankind_n second_o that_o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o commandment_n which_o enjoin_v we_o to_o love_v our_o neighbour_n as_o ourselves_o three_o that_o

offer_v for_o this_o doctrine_n from_o scripture_n or_o reason_n 2._o first_o it_o be_v manifest_o and_o express_o contrary_a to_o the_o plain_n dictate_v of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o the_o experience_n and_o reason_n of_o mankind_n to_o make_v this_o evident_a i_o lay_v this_o down_o as_o the_o foundation_n that_o love_n of_o concupiscence_n and_o of_o desire_n be_v the_o same_o

soul_n towards_o good_a and_o thus_o consider_v it_o be_v what_o we_o call_v concupiscence_n or_o desire_n now_o hence_o it_o necessary_o follow_v that_o what_o i_o desire_v i_o do_v also_o love_v and_o that_o i_o may_v innocent_o love_v what_o i_o may_v lawful_o desire_v to_o have_v or_o to_o enjoy_v now_o god_n himself_o by_o divers_a method_n have_v instruct_v we_o that_o we_o may_v lawful_o desire_v the_o creature_n he_o have_v himself_o oblige_v we_o to_o desire_v and_o therefore_o moderate_o to_o effect_v the_o world_n be_v good_a thing_n for_o 1._o he_o have_v make_v the_o desire_n of_o they_o the_o matter_n of_o our_o daily_a prayer_n require_v we_o to_o address_v unto_o he_o daily_o for_o our_o daily_a bread_n now_o under_o the_o name_n of_o bread_n it_o be_v agree_v by_o all_o interpreter_n that_o i_o have_v meet_v with_o that_o all_o thing_n needful_a to_o the_o sustain_n and_o the_o comfort_n of_o this_o present_a life_n be_v comprehend_v of_o which_o nature_n be_v

desire_v bread_n be_v this_o because_o it_o be_v needful_a for_o the_o support_n and_o comfort_n of_o this_o present_a life_n it_o follow_v that_o we_o have_v the_o same_o reason_n to_o desire_v of_o
