salvation_n be_v of_o the_o jew_n wherein_o he_o inform_v the_o woman_n that_o though_o she_o inquire_v only_o of_o the_o place_n of_o worship_n the_o samaritan_n be_v guilty_a of_o a_o great_a salt_n than_o set_v up_o the_o temple_n at_o samaria_n in_o opposition_n to_o the_o temple_n at_o jerusalem_n viz._n in_o a_o false_a object_n or_o a_o idolatrous_a manner_n of_o worship_n they_o worship_v a_o dove_n as_o the_o symbol_n and_o representation_n of_o god_n and_o thus_o to_o worship_n god_n in_o spirit_n be_v express_o oppose_v to_o worship_v god_n by_o image_n 5_o however_o this_o come_v much_o to_o one_o for_o if_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n his_o worship_n must_v not_o be_v confine_v to_o any_o place_n or_o symbolical_a presence_n then_o he_o must_v not_o be_v worship_v by_o a_o image_n for_o a_o image_n be_v a_o representative_a presence_n of_o god_n or_o of_o the_o saint_n for_o the_o use_n of_o image_n be_v to_o represent_v that_o be_v who_o we_o worship_v as_o present_v to_o we_o and_o therefore_o if_o man_n consider_v what_o they_o do_v they_o go_v to_o image_n as_o to_o divine_a presence_n to_o worship_n image_n which_o as_o set_v up_o in_o church_n and_o chapel_n for_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n or_o of_o the_o saint_n be_v confine_v to_o place_n and_o make_v those_o place_n as_o much_o appropriate_a and_o peculiar_a place_n of_o worship_n as_o the_o jewish_a temple_n be_v except_v that_o the_o temple_n be_v but_o one_o and_o they_o be_v many_o heathen_a temple_n be_v the_o house_n of_o their_o god_n or_o of_o their_o image_n which_o be_v the_o presence_n of_o their_o god_n and_o if_o we_o must_v not_o appropriate_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n to_o any_o place_n than_o we_o must_v not_o worship_v he_o by_o image_n which_o be_v of_o no_o use_n but_o to_o represent_v god_n as_o sensible_o present_a with_o the_o image_n or_o in_o the_o place_n where_o the_o image_n be_v if_o god_n be_v better_o worship_v before_o a_o image_n than_o without_o one_o than_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n be_v more_o confine_v to_o that_o place_n where_o a_o image_n be_v than_o to_o those_o place_n which_o have_v no_o image_n i_o can_v see_v how_o to_o avoid_v this_o that_o if_o god_n must_v be_v worship_v by_o image_n than_o there_o must_v be_v appropriate_a place_n of_o worship_n viz._n where_o the_o image_n be_v if_o there_o be_v no_o appropriate_a place_n of_o worship_n under_o the_o gospel_n like_o the_o temple_n at_o jerusalem_n than_o god_n must_v not_o be_v worship_v by_o image_n for_o a_o image_n must_v be_v in_o some_o place_n and_o if_o god_n must_v be_v worship_v at_o or_o before_o his_o image_n then_o that_o be_v the_o proper_a and_o peculiar_a place_n of_o worship_n where_o his_o image_n be_v nay_o though_o the_o image_n be_v not_o fix_v to_o any_o place_n but_o be_v carry_v about_o with_o we_o yet_o if_o we_o must_v worship_n god_n by_o image_n the_o image_n be_v not_o only_o the_o object_n but_o make_v the_o place_n of_o worship_n for_o there_o we_o must_v worship_n god_n where_o his_o image_n be_v if_o we_o must_v worship_v he_o before_o his_o image_n it_o be_v impossible_a to_o separate_v the_o notion_n of_o image-worship_n from_o the_o notion_n of_o a_o peculiar_a and_o appropriate_a place_n of_o worship_n for_o the_o image_n determine_v the_o place_n as_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o object_n do_v and_o as_o under_o the_o gospel_n we_o may_v worship_n god_n any_o where_o because_o he_o be_v a_o infinite_a spirit_n and_o fill_v all_o place_n and_o be_v equal_o present_a with_o all_o devout_a worshipper_n wherever_o they_o worship_v he_o so_o where_o the_o image_n be_v consecrate_a for_o a_o divine_a presence_n it_o be_v not_o only_o the_o object_n but_o the_o peculiar_a place_n of_o worship_n because_o god_n be_v peculiar_o present_a there_o or_o more_o acceptable_o worship_v there_o than_o where_o there_o be_v no_o image_n so_o that_o if_o a_o peculiar_a and_o appropriate_a place_n of_o worship_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o notion_n of_o a_o infinite_a spirit_n the_o worship_n of_o image_n be_v much_o more_o so_o for_o beside_o that_o they_o be_v gross_a and_o corporeal_a representation_n of_o a_o spirit_n they_o be_v divine_a presence_n too_o and_o appropriate_a place_n of_o worship_n second_o as_o god_n must_v be_v worship_v under_o the_o notion_n of_o a_o spirit_n so_o under_o the_o character_n of_o a_o father_n as_o our_o saviour_n expresty_n tell_v we_o the_o hour_n come_v and_o now_o be_v when_o the_o true_a worshipper_n shall_v worship_v the_o father_n in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n 23._o 4_o joh._n 23._o for_o the_o father_n seek_v such_o to_o worship_v he_o and_o therefore_o he_o teach_v his_o disciple_n to_o pray_v our_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n under_o the_o law_n god_n be_v worship_v as_o a_o king_n and_o that_o not_o so_o much_o as_o the_o king_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n but_o as_o in_o a_o peculiar_a manner_n the_o king_n of_o israel_n the_o lord_n reign_v let_v the_o people_n tremble_v he_o sit_v between_o the_o cherubim_v in_o his_o temple_n at_o jerusalem_n let_v the_o earth_n be_v move_v 2._o 99_o ps_n 1_o 2._o the_o lord_n be_v great_a in_o zion_n and_o he_o be_v high_a above_o all_o people_n but_o under_o the_o gospel_n the_o peculiar_a character_n of_o god_n be_v a_o father_n and_o that_o not_o only_o as_o he_o be_v the_o maker_n of_o all_o man_n and_o so_o the_o father_n of_o all_o but_o as_o he_o be_v the_o father_n of_o christ_n and_o in_o he_o the_o father_n of_o all_o christian_n now_o this_o make_v a_o vast_a difference_n in_o our_o worship_n from_o what_o be_v daily_o practise_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n for_o 1._o when_o we_o pray_v to_o god_n as_o our_o father_n we_o must_v pray_v to_o he_o as_o dwell_n in_o heaven_n as_o our_o saviour_n teach_v we_o to_o say_v our_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n for_o as_o a_o father_n heaven_n be_v his_o house_n and_o habitation_n in_o my_o father_n house_n be_v many_o mansion_n that_o be_v 2._o 14_o john_n 2._o in_o in_o heaven_n which_o be_v his_o house_n as_o a_o father_n as_o the_o temple_n at_o jerusalem_n be_v his_o palace_n consider_v as_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n and_o this_o be_v one_o reason_n our_o saviour_n intimate_v why_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n shall_v no_o long_o be_v confine_v to_o any_o particular_a place_n or_o temple_n because_o he_o shall_v be_v worship_v as_o the_o universal_a father_n not_o as_o the_o king_n of_o jury_n now_o when_o he_o be_v to_o be_v worship_v as_o a_o father_n from_o all_o part_n of_o the_o world_n he_o must_v have_v such_o a_o throne_n and_o presence_n to_o which_o all_o the_o world_n may_v equal_o resort_v and_o that_o can_v be_v no_o other_o than_o his_o throne_n in_o heaven_n whither_o we_o may_v send_v up_o our_o prayer_n from_o all_o corner_n of_o the_o earth_n but_o have_v he_o confine_v his_o presence_n to_o any_o place_n on_o earth_n as_o he_o do_v to_o the_o temple_n of_o jerusalem_n the_o rest_n of_o the_o world_n must_v have_v be_v without_o god_n peculiar_a presence_n can_v have_v have_v no_o temple_n nor_o place_n of_o worship_n but_o at_o such_o a_o distance_n that_o they_o can_v never_o have_v come_v at_o it_o for_o though_o god_n fill_v all_o place_n it_o be_v a_o great_a absurdity_n to_o talk_v of_o more_o symbolical_a presence_n of_o god_n than_o one_o for_o a_o symbolical_a presence_n confine_n the_o unlimited_a presence_n of_o god_n to_o a_o certain_a place_n in_o order_n to_o certain_a end_n as_o to_o receive_v the_o worship_n that_o be_v pay_v he_o and_o to_o answer_v the_o prayer_n that_o be_v make_v to_o he_o and_o to_o have_v more_o than_o one_o such_o presence_n as_o this_o be_v like_o have_v more_o god_n than_o one._n so_o that_o all_o our_o worship_n under_o the_o gospel_n must_v be_v direct_v to_o god_n in_o heaven_n and_o that_o be_v a_o plain_a argument_n that_o we_o must_v not_o worship_n god_n in_o image_n on_o earth_n for_o they_o neither_o can_v represent_v to_o we_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n in_o heaven_n nor_o be_v god_n present_a with_o the_o image_n to_o receive_v our_o worship_n there_o if_o god_n must_v now_o be_v worship_v as_o dwell_v in_o heaven_n it_o be_v certain_a there_o can_v be_v no_o object_n of_o our_o worship_n on_o earth_n for_o though_o god_n fill_v all_o place_n with_o his_o presence_n yet_o he_o will_v be_v worship_v only_o as_o sit_v on_o his_o throne_n in_o heaven_n and_o then_o i_o be_o sure_a he_o must_v not_o be_v worship_v in_o a_o image_n on_o earth_n for_o that_o be_v not_o his_o throne_n in_o heaven_n this_o the_o mercy-seat_n in_o the_o holy_a of_o holies_n be_v a_o emblem_n of_o for_o the_o holy_a of_o
