A53364	A discourse of the unlawfulness of praying to saints and angels being a full answer to a letter of Sabran the Jesuite : wherein the practice of the Church of Rome, in praying to saints and angels is plainly proved to be contrary to the doctrine of Christ and the presented authority by him produc'd, to be either forged or impertinent / by Titus Oates, a presbyter of the Church of England.

find_v that_o jacobus_n nauclantius_n the_o bishop_n of_o clugium_fw-la in_o italy_n be_v so_o zealous_a that_o he_o tell_v you_o that_o the_o image_n and_o the_o thing_n represent_v by_o the_o

which_o you_o call_v the_o superior_a and_o high_a service_n nor_o do_v he_o pretend_v to_o be_v god_n himself_o but_o only_o his_o minister_n and_o enjoy_v what_o he_o offer_v by_o the_o bounty_n

to_o pay_v to_o he_o either_o your_o latria_n or_o dulia_n for_o he_o say_v thou_o shall_v worship_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n and_o he_o only_o shall_v thou_o serve_v where_o you_o must_v observe_v that_o as_o the_o devil_n have_v no_o right_n to_o any_o religious_a worship_n so_o no_o creature_n can_v pretend_v to_o it_o it_o be_v due_a to_o god_n only_o sir_n be_v please_v further_a to_o consider_v that_o passage_n in_o the_o revelation_n 19_o 10._o where_o st._n john_n see_v a_o angel_n i_o fall_v say_v he_o at_o his_o foot_n to_o worship_v he_o and_o he_o say_v unto_o i_o see_v thou_o do_v it_o not_o i_o be_o thy_o fellow-servant_n and_o of_o thy_o brethren_n that_o have_v the_o testimony_n of_o jesus_n worship_n god._n this_o st._n john_n be_v so_o transport_v with_o the_o

his_o thankfulness_n to_o the_o messenger_n but_o he_o be_v forbid_v and_o command_v to_o worship_n god_n see_v thou_o do_v it_o not_o but_o worship_n god._n and_o see_v revel_v 22._o 8_o 9_o and_o i_o john_n see_v these_o thing_n and_o hear_v they_o and_o when_o i_o have_v hear_v and_o see_v i_o fall_v down_o to_o worship_n before_o the_o foot_n of_o the_o angel_n which_o show_v i_o these_o

this_o book_n worship_n god._n hence_o you_o may_v see_v that_o the_o angel_n forbid_v st._n john_n worship_v he_o nay_o he_o chide_v he_o for_o offer_v to_o pay_v he_o a_o religious_a worship_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d i_o be_o thy_o companion_n in_o dulia_n therefore_o worship_v not_o i_o but_o god_n as_o the_o only_a object_n of_o religious_a worship_n do_v not_o worship_v i_o that_o be_o thy_o fellow-servant_n and_o fellow-worshipper_n second_o i_o pray_v sir_n be_v please_v to_o consider_v that_o the_o almighty_a have_v enjoin_v we_o a_o rational_a worship_n and_o service_n fit_a for_o mankind_n to_o perform_v and_o as_o most_o suitable_a with_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o holy_a name_n but_o i_o conceive_v the_o practice_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n in_o this_o point_n of_o pray_v to_o saint_n and_o angols_n to_o be_v irrational_a and_o by_o your_o leave_n let_v i_o tell_v you_o that_o nothing_o can_v be_v more_o irrational_a and_o absurd_a this_o i_o shall_v make_v appear_v in_o these_o two_o particular_n i._o consider_v that_o the_o saint_n and_o angel_n be_v under_o a_o incapacity_n of_o hear_v the_o prayer_n that_o be_v direct_v to_o they_o and_o if_o so_o then_o sir_n you_o will_v own_v it_o to_o be_v ridiculous_a and_o irrational_a to_o pray_v to_o they_o that_o can_v hear_v our_o prayer_n i_o remember_v the_o scripture_n say_v how_o shall_v we_o call_v on_o they_o in_o who_o we_o do_v not_o believe_v i_o may_v with_o as_o much_o reason_n say_v how_o shall_v we_o call_v on_o they_o who_o can_v hear_v we_o that_o this_o be_v the_o case_n of_o the_o glorify_a spirit_n be_v evident_a 1._o because_o they_o be_v not_o omnipresent_v they_o be_v circumscribe_v and_o finite_a creature_n and_o can_v be_v but_o in_o one_o place_n at_o one_o and_o the_o same_o time_n this_o may_v be_v affirm_v with_o very_o good_a ground_n of_o the_o virgin_n mary_n herself_o who_o then_o must_v be_v incapable_a of_o hear_v the_o prayer_n of_o one_o hundred_o thousand_o person_n who_o it_o may_v be_v be_v pray_v to_o she_o at_o one_o and_o the_o same_o time_n some_o in_o one_o part_n of_o the_o world_n and_o other_o in_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o world_n and_o if_o she_o can_v hear_v their_o prayer_n i_o can_v suppose_v that_o she_o can_v help_v those_o who_o be_v so_o much_o devote_v to_o her_o service_n i_o pray_v sir_n why_o do_v we_o call_v upon_o the_o name_n of_o the_o great_a god_n be_v it_o not_o because_o he_o be_v present_a to_o observe_v and_o present_a to_o accept_v our_o petition_n and_o answer_v our_o suit_n all_o man_n

a_o saint_n or_o angel_n be_v either_o present_a to_o observe_v or_o present_a to_o accept_v of_o the_o petition_n of_o those_o that_o make_v suit_n to_o they_o that_o say_v of_o the_o psalmist_n be_v
