A79851 A second voyce from the temple to the higher povvers. Wherein is proved that the decrees and institutions of popes and popish counsels, which have been established by the law of the land, and have been continued and confirmed throughout divers ages, by several acts of Parliament, against Jesus Christ, in the way and order of the Gospel (the same yet standing) ought by the present supream authority of this nation to be taken away. Moreover; here is shewed, some particular decrees of popes, which have beeen established by several acts of Parliament, viz. A nationall ministry, tythes, prohibiting men from publick preaching of the Gospel, unlesse elected and ordained after a popish manner, &c. All which as they are the institutions of popes, formerly confirmed by the law of the land, so now, to be abrogated. By John Canne. Canne, John, d. 1667? 1653 (1653) Wing C442A; Thomason E710_19; ESTC R207195 25,656 36

that_o the_o ministry_n of_o england_n be_v a_o base_a ministry_n which_o god_n never_o erect_v in_o his_o church_n but_o come_v whole_o from_o the_o pope_n not_o only_o the_o call_n of_o the_o

a_o mere_a humane_a invention_n take_v up_o without_o any_o warrant_n from_o god_n word_n and_o bring_v into_o the_o church_n by_o the_o boldness_n of_o man_n it_o want_v the_o life_n essence_n and_o

special_o now_o as_o if_o we_o must_v be_v behold_v to_o the_o sea_n of_o rome_n and_o know_v not_o how_o to_o worship_v god_n without_o take_v a_o popish_a clergy_n from_o thence_o as_o on_o the_o

to_o shine_v and_o their_o name_n to_o be_v precious_a and_o bless_v in_o future_a generation_n 4._o to_o allow_v such_o a_o ministry_n be_v to_o acknowledge_v the_o pope_n of_o rome_n to_o be_v a_o true_a minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n i_o pray_v observe_v it_o those_o law_n and_o statute_n by_o which_o the_o national_a ministry_n be_v establish_v and_o continue_v they_o do_v acknowledge_v and_o justify_v that_o great_a antichrist_n as_o to_o be_v a_o true_a and_o lawful_a minister_n of_o jesus_n christ_n hence_o it_o be_v by_o our_o law_n that_o those_o who_o be_v make_v priest_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n if_o they_o come_v to_o the_o church_n of_o england_n retain_v their_o priesthood_n as_o full_a and_o ample_a as_o before_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o law_n put_v no_o difference_n between_o a_o man_n make_v priest_n at_o rome_n by_o the_o pope_n or_o ordain_v priest_n by_o a_o prelate_n in_o england_n as_o to_o the_o office_n and_o call_v it_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o 5._o this_o national_a ministry_n be_v a_o great_a dishonour_n and_o shame_n to_o the_o gospel_n and_o to_o christ_n himself_o in_o his_o most_o excellent_a servant_n the_o apostle_n and_o church_n of_o the_o apostolic_a institution_n in_o reject_v and_o reproach_v their_o precept_n and_o practice_n and_o therefore_o it_o much_o concern_v the_o parliament_n to_o confider_v how_o they_o suffer_v such_o law_n in_o force_n as_o do_v open_o and_o public_o speak_v out_o contempt_n against_o jesus_n christ_n i_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o man_n may_v be_v yea_o and_o aught_o to_o be_v tolerate_v though_o they_o err_v in_o their_o opinion_n and_o practice_n but_o that_o the_o magistrate_n shall_v make_v a_o law_n or_o continue_v any_o law_n make_v before_o to_o the_o dishonour_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o gospel_n this_o they_o can_v do_v 6._o it_o be_v a_o dishonour_n to_o a_o state_n that_o any_o mark_n of_o the_o beast_n shall_v by_o law_n be_v justify_v and_o practise_v in_o it_o but_o this_o national_a ministry_n as_o derive_v from_o the_o sea_n of_o rome_n be_v one_o of_o the_o most_o perspicuous_a and_o notorious_a mark_n that_o pope_n and_o popish_a counsel_n ever_o give_v one_o of_o the_o first_o and_o by_o which_o babylon_n have_v be_v most_o advance_v and_o zion_n ever_o since_o most_o oppose_v hate_a persecute_v 7._o this_o antichristian_a ministry_n whether_o it_o be_v in_o spain_n france_n england_n etc._n etc._n for_o it_o be_v all_o one_o i_o speak_v of_o the_o office_n and_o calling_n and_o not_o of_o the_o administration_n of_o priest_n be_v guilty_a of_o blood_n for_o thousand_o thousand_o of_o saint_n have_v be_v murder_v by_o it_o and_o therefore_o as_o the_o lord_n be_v make_v inquisition_n for_o blood_n so_o shall_v those_o who_o be_v call_v god_n on_o earth_n now_o follow_v the_o lamb_n and_o show_v forth_o the_o likeness_n and_o image_n of_o their_o great_a god_n &_o master_n in_o heaven_n in_o search_v after_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o of_o the_o saint_n and_o to_o execute_v the_o judgement_n write_v it_o be_v true_a as_o the_o time_n may_v be_v some_o act_n of_o justice_n may_v be_v foreborn_a which_o afterward_o ought_v and_o must_v be_v do_v david_n complain_v that_o the_o son_n of_o zerviah_n be_v to_o hard_a for_o he_o yet_o solomon_n follow_v be_v in_o a_o better_a capacity_n put_v one_o of_o

till_o he_o fall_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o justice_n indeed_o then_o if_o the_o magistrate_n neglect_v his_o duty_n and_o suffer_v he_o to_o escape_v he_o wrap_v himself_o in_o the_o blood_n and_o guilt_n of_o the_o malefactor_n that_o blood_n guiltiness_n lie_v on_o that_o ministry_n which_o essential_o be_v derive_v from_o the_o sea_n of_o rome_n this_o have_v be_v know_v to_o saint_n in_o
