A18908	Antidoton or a soueraigne remedie against schisme and heresie: gathered to analogie and proportion of faith, from that parable of tares. Matth.13. Aug.ep.3.Nullorum disput.&c. We ought to haue no men their disputations (although men Catholike and praise worthie) in that count as we haue the canonicall scriptures: so that it should be vnlawfull for vs to improue and refuse some things in their writings, if happily we finde that they thought otherwise then the truth hath. Such a one am I in other mens writings, and so would I haue others to vnderstand of my writings.	Clapham, Henoch.	1600 (1600)	STC 5330; ESTC S111140	38,797	50

Ioseph her husband carnally That he was not Christ but that Christ came vpon him in the forme of a Doue And that Iesus suffered but Christ fled away c. Against whose abominable opinion touching Iesus his onely being man Iohn is said to haue written his Euangell which indeed affordeth arguments specially for proofe of his Diuinitie Now must the Nicolaitans that died such come forth answere for their communitie of women As also the Carpocratians for denying saluation to the flesh with others their followers holding it of the diuell giuing it vp to all filthinesse as it were therby to be auēged on the body their soules prison Now the Ophitai who taught the Serpent which deceiued Eue was Christ who by that meanes made a way for reuealing himselfe after to mankind And for this cause worshipped the serpent for Christ c. vpon which the Church gaue them that name Ophitai or Serpentinists Now must they come forth and know to their shame that they worshipped the diuel of hell in stead of Christ. The Montanists who held Montanus for the holy Ghost condemned mariage for filthinesse c. now those blasphemous filthy tongues must come out and bee tormented with Diues tongue in hell fire The Arians who taught that there was a time wherein God was not a Father nor the Sonne a Sonne that the Sonne was not of one substance with the Father but of another nature a creature and meere man tearmed God onely in regard of office as Magistrates be c. Now must they stand forth before that God who will to them indeed proue no Father but a consuming fire The Macedonians who taught the holy Ghost not to be God but a seruant trudging about the businesse of the Father and the Son those now must to iudgement And wel shal they know that so they taught because they had not the holy Ghost The Anthropo-morphits so called for attributing to God in proprietie the very shape and proportion of Man they shal in this great day well vnderstand that they spoke and conceiued of spirituall things but carnally as bare naturall men Now the followers of Apollinaris they must answere for teaching Christ to ass●me onely a liuing bodie without a reasonable soule substituting the Diuinitie in place of a soule making a confusion of Diuinitie and humanitie as if Christ were neither God nor man but a third thing mingled euen as wine and water mingled is no more wine nor water but a mixture or mingle mangle Pelagius faction holding man naturally to haue in his power to will and do well they now shal find that they both are supernaturall and diuine gifts Now the sect of Eutyches who held that Christ assumed no nature of ours the Anabaptists doctrine in these dayes they shall in this day learne that that body and soule shall be damned the first fruites whereof were not first assumed by Christ Iesus The Mono-thelites so tearmed for teaching that Christ Iesus had onely one will they in this day shall be taught to their shame that Christ had two wils vnconfounded the one peculiar vnto his Godhead which was as the nature was Infinite the other peculiar to his manhood and as it was finit The first Will strong as God the second infirme as man but infirmity without sinne In a word all the wicked tares or other weeds they must now be seuered from the Lord his wheat and that which more is they must be collected and bound vp in sheaues Not in one sheaue but sundrie according to the measure of their euils One faction in one sheafe another faction in another sheafe but all prepared for one hell for one fire euerlastingly burning Yet though but one hell one fire of wrath scripture seemeth to imply by vniuersall consent of the Church that the measure of torment shal be diuersly proportioned according to the proportion and qualitie of sinne in the subiect Nor dislike I a certaine Ancient his iudgement touching this namely that as in creatures all apt to burne yet some feede the fire more then the other as for example oylie and gummie timber more then fewell of a diuers nature euen so of sinners damned all capable to burne but the same fire and torment more enlarged by the subiect it worketh vpon as his sinne shall be more large and notable Sin be it more or lesse is so considered as the subiect whereon the burning wrath of God shal haue matter to feed vpon for euer And this is the way whereby the iustice of God against sinne it shall be declared a Iustice for euer In this day the Originists who haue taught that diuell and all shall once come out of that fire and be saued they shall find that sinne in the damned neuer dies nay I rather thinke that it is encreased if so sinne can be enlarged in hell seeing sinne vnmortified is budding bringing forth more euil in thought word worke and so consequently the gnawing worme neuer to die that fire neuer to be put out And as the tares the most politicall wicked together with the whole corporation of Satan they thus shal find in the end their glorie turned into shame their temporarie heauen into an eternall hell So the Lord his wheat or children of the kingdome for though the other were in it yet they were not of it they are in this great day gathered into the Lords barne Though they grew together here they must be seuered there The wicked shall not stand in the assembly of the righteous nor after that day shall the soule of any righteous Lot be combred and galled with Sodome The Iebusits gall vs heere but they drinke gall and wormewood for it there We contentedly suffer here but it is appointed that we shall be glorified there Into the Lords barne Abrahams bosome Paradise heauens glory we shall all be receiued and there for eternitie placed But as there is more or lesse measure of torment for the wicked so shall there not be a diuersitie of glorification in Christ Iesus his members The vniuersall streame of antiquity concluding affirmatiuely I dare not ioyne with them that conclude negatiuely Besides the scriptures they vrge to this purpose I cannot see them otherwise applied then aptly and fitly For our Sauiours words in Iohn In my fathers house are many dwelling Mansions if it were not so I would haue told ye I go to prepare a place for you Where they reply that these seuerall mansions are to be vnderstood here in the Church I answer that cannot be for the sundrie mansions must be considered in the place whither Iesus was repairing namely in heauens glory and not in the earth whence he was departing Which better appeareth in that after he preoccupates this questiō of the Apostles What shall become of vs meane time whereto he answereth their thought saying Though I go to prepare a place for you I
