be_v certain_o by_o revelation_n if_o our_o author_n shall_v reply_v that_o it_o be_v well_o know_v that_o elisha_n be_v but_o a_o prophet_n and_o can_v know_v no_o such_o thing_n but_o by_o inspiration_n or_o revelation_n i_o answer_v it_o be_v likewise_o well_o know_v that_o christ_n know_v not_o all_o thing_n and_o particular_o not_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n mark_v 13._o 32._o therefore_o he_o can_v not_o be_v god_n for_o god_n know_v all_o thing_n beside_o the_o scripture_n assure_v we_o that_o god_n give_v to_o christ_n his_o revelation_n rev._n 1._o 1._o which_o prove_v that_o all_o his_o extraordinary_a knowledge_n be_v derive_v from_o god_n but_o he_o always_o know_v all_o man_n say_v the_o author_n which_o can_v be_v do_v by_o revelation_n which_o be_v particular_a and_o occasional_a why_o not_o god_n revelation_n may_v be_v perpetual_a if_o he_o please_v there_o be_v no_o contradiction_n or_o impossibility_n in_o it_o but_o how_o have_v he_o pervert_v the_o first_o verse_n of_o st._n john_n revelation_n the_o revelation_n of_o jesus_n christ_n which_o god_n give_v to_o he_o to_o show_v unto_o his_o servant_n thing_n which_o must_v short_o come_v to_o pass_v this_o say_v he_o do_v not_o signify_v that_o this_o be_v a_o revelation_n make_v to_o jesus_n christ_n but_o that_o revelation_n which_o christ_n make_v for_o tho'_o god_n be_v say_v to_o give_v to_o he_o it_o be_v to_o show_v unto_o his_o servant_n that_o be_v by_o appointment_n of_o god_n christ_n show_v this_o revelation_n unto_o john_n alas_o if_o our_o author_n be_v not_o able_a to_o answer_v this_o place_n he_o shall_v not_o have_v study_v to_o clude_v it_o if_o christ_n make_v this_o revelation_n because_o he_o be_v god_n how_o be_v it_o say_v to_o be_v give_v to_o he_o which_o can_v in_o no_o sense_n agree_v to_o he_o who_o be_v true_a god_n he_o receive_v it_o say_v our_o author_n to_o show_v unto_o his_o servant_n but_o of_o who_o can_v the_o true_a god_n receive_v either_o knowledge_n or_o authority_n to_o dispense_v it_o but_o here_o be_v two_o argument_n against_o our_o author_n doctrine_n 1._o that_o god_n give_v to_o christ_n a_o revelation_n but_o he_o that_o be_v god_n can_v need_v no_o revelation_n because_o himself_o know_v all_o thing_n 2._o that_o he_o be_v appoint_v to_o show_v this_o revelation_n to_o other_o which_o no_o more_o can_v agree_v to_o one_o who_o be_v god_n than_o revelation_n do_v he_o conclude_v that_o he_o desire_v a_o mediator_n who_o know_v more_o and_o in_o a_o more_o perfect_a manner_n but_o i_o think_v it_o be_v fit_a we_o shall_v be_v content_v with_o such_o a_o mediator_n as_o god_n be_v please_v to_o give_v we_o iv._o his_o last_o charge_n be_v that_o socinianism_n justify_v at_o least_o excuse_n both_o pagan_a and_o popish_a idolatry_n at_o least_o as_o it_o be_v teach_v by_o those_o man_n who_o allow_v of_o the_o worship_n of_o christ_n which_o it_o be_v certain_a too_o the_o christian_a religion_n teach_v in_o answer_v hereto_o i_o will_v 1._o show_v in_o what_o consist_v the_o worship_n or_o honour_n due_a to_o christ_n 2._o compare_v this_o worship_n with_o the_o worship_n which_o pagan_n exhibit_v to_o their_o false_a god_n and_o papist_n to_o their_o saint_n 1._o i_o observe_v that_o in_o the_o unitarian_n hypothesis_n the_o worship_n or_o honour_n due_a to_o christ_n be_v not_o a_o supreme_a worship_n such_o as_o we_o ought_v to_o pay_v to_o god_n christ_n be_v a_o creature_n can_v never_o be_v worship_v as_o god_n be_v tho'_o he_o be_v never_o so_o great_a and_o glorious_a a_o supreme_a worship_n be_v proper_a only_o to_o almighty_a god_n and_o can_v never_o be_v bestow_v on_o any_o creature_n 2._o as_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v that_o there_o be_v divers_a order_n of_o creature_n so_o the_o honour_n pay_v to_o they_o aught_o to_o be_v proportionable_a to_o their_o greatness_n and_o dignity_n thus_o in_o a_o kingdom_n those_o who_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o dignity_n be_v above_o the_o common_a sort_n of_o man_n deserve_v a_o great_a respect_n and_o honour_n than_o other_o and_o the_o king_n who_o be_v above_o they_o all_o have_v a_o honour_n pay_v to_o he_o which_o be_v incommunicable_a to_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o subject_n by_o the_o same_o reason_n angel_n who_o be_v more_o excellent_a than_o man_n be_v worthy_a of_o great_a honour_n but_o christ_n who_o have_v be_v exalt_v above_o both_o man_n and_o angel_n since_o he_o be_v king_n of_o king_n and_o lord_n of_o lord_n have_v a_o proper_a worship_n due_a to_o he_o which_o can_v never_o be_v give_v either_o to_o angel_n or_o men._n he_o be_v god_n belove_a son_n by_o way_n of_o excellence_n all_o power_n be_v give_v to_o he_o in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n he_o be_v at_o the_o right-hand_a of_o god_n have_v all_o thing_n put_v under_o his_o foot_n he_o deserve_v therefore_o a_o honour_n so_o much_o great_a than_o they_o as_o he_o be_v great_a phil._n 2._o 9_o 10_o 11._o god_n also_o have_v high_o exalt_v he_o and_o give_v he_o a_o name_n above_o every_o name_n that_o at_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n every_o knee_n shall_v bow_v of_o thing_n in_o heaven_n and_o thing_n in_o earth_n and_o thing_n under_o the_o earth_n and_o that_o every_o tongue_n shall_v confess_v that_o jesus_n be_v lord_n to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n the_o father_n the_o apostle_n do_v not_o say_v that_o every_o knee_n ought_v to_o bow_v at_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n because_o he_o be_v the_o supreme_a god_n but_o because_o god_n have_v exalt_v he_o above_o man_n and_o angel_n because_o he_o have_v obtain_v of_o god_n a_o name_n above_o every_o name_n the_o most_o eminent_a and_o glorious_a dignity_n that_o ever_o be_v this_o be_v the_o true_a ground_n of_o the_o honour_n which_o be_v due_a to_o christ_n this_o st._n paul_n teach_v and_o this_o the_o unitarian_n profess_v to_o believe_v and_o perform_v 3._o when_o we_o worship_v christ_n it_o be_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n the_o father_n as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v the_o honour_n we_o pay_v to_o christ_n be_v terminate_v in_o god_n we_o worship_v he_o as_o god_n ambassador_n and_o image_n as_o he_o who_o believe_v in_o he_o believe_v in_o god_n also_o so_o he_o who_o honour_v he_o honour_v god_n also_o 2._o let_v we_o compare_v the_o worship_n of_o christ_n the_o reader_n will_v remember_v we_o mean_v not_o thereby_o a_o supreme_a worship_n with_o the_o worship_n of_o false_a god_n among_o pagan_n and_o of_o saint_n among_o papist_n pagan_n be_v guilty_a of_o idolatry_n because_o first_o they_o have_v no_o divine_a command_n for_o such_o worship_n but_o even_o our_o author_n confess_v there_o be_v such_o a_o command_n for_o the_o worship_n of_o christ_n to_o worship_v creature_n without_o the_o warrant_n of_o god_n be_v usurpation_n on_o and_o contempt_n of_o god_n second_o they_o worship_v and_o serve_v creature_n more_o than_o the_o creator_n as_o st._n paul_n say_v they_o set_v up_o a_o infinite_a number_n of_o god_n who_o have_v be_v mere_a man_n and_o ascribe_v to_o they_o such_o power_n as_o do_v not_o belong_v to_o they_o and_o such_o worship_n as_o be_v infinite_o above_o they_o they_o offer_v sacrifice_n to_o they_o consecrate_a temple_n to_o their_o honour_n pray_v to_o they_o in_o a_o word_n they_o pay_v to_o they_o such_o worship_n as_o be_v terminate_v in_o they_o and_o so_o make_v true_a god_n of_o men._n but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o the_o worship_n of_o christ_n we_o ascribe_v to_o he_o no_o other_o power_n but_o what_o we_o know_v from_o the_o scripture_n god_n have_v bestow_v on_o he_o and_o no_o other_o honour_n but_o what_o be_v proportionable_a to_o that_o power_n to_o the_o dignity_n of_o his_o person_n and_o what_o god_n himself_o command_v we_o to_o pay_v he_o this_o may_v be_v apply_v to_o the_o papist_n let_v they_o show_v we_o any_o text_n of_o scripture_n which_o oblige_v we_o to_o worship_v st._n peter_n st._n paul_n st._n francis_n be_v they_o content_a to_o keep_v within_o the_o bound_n of_o respect_n and_o honour_n due_a to_o glorify_v saint_n they_o shall_v be_v guilty_a of_o no_o fault_n but_o to_o pray_v to_o they_o as_o many_o do_v as_o mediator_n both_o of_o intercession_n and_o merit_n to_o dedicate_v church_n to_o they_o to_o kneel_v down_o before_o their_o image_n and_o to_o their_o image_n nay_o to_o their_o vile_a relic_n this_o approach_n too_o near_o to_o idolatry_n our_o author_n therefore_o mistake_v when_o he_o say_v the_o great_a hurt_n on_o the_o vnitarian_n hypothesis_n seem_v to_o be_v that_o they_o pagan_n and_o papist_n lose_v their_o labour_n but_o according_a to_o these_o principle_n they_o do_v no_o injury_n to_o god_n what_o then_o be_v it_o all_o one_o to_o worship_n christ_n by_o god_n appointment_n and_o to_o worship_v false_a god_n and_o apocryphal_a saint_n without_o any_o warrant_n from_o god_n be_v it_o all_o one_o to_o pay_v to_o christ_n such_o honour_n as_o neither_o exceed_v his_o power_n nor_o be_v great_a than_o his_o dignity_n and_o honour_v false_a god_n and_o saint_n in_o such_o manner_n as_o exceed_v both_o their_o power_n and_o merit_n that_o be_v obedience_n to_o god_n will_n the_o other_o detestable_a usurpation_n and_o rebellion_n i_o conclude_v therefore_o that_o the_o unitarian_n by_o the_o worship_n they_o pay_v to_o christ_n can_v be_v say_v to_o justify_v or_o excuse_v pagan_n or_o papist_n which_o if_o it_o have_v not_o be_v a_o invidious_a charge_n be_v so_o apparent_o false_a that_o it_o will_v not_o have_v deserve_v any_o notice_n and_o thus_o i_o have_v do_v with_o that_o part_n of_o the_o doctor_n be_v book_n which_o i_o undertake_v to_o answer_v it_o may_v be_v the_o historian_n himself_o may_v upon_o some_o

unless_o dr._n sherlock_n think_v sit_v to_o own_o that_o he_o desire_v it_o not_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n it_o may_v be_v the_o historian_n be_v satisfy_v that_o in_o these_o paper_n i_o have_v do_v
