mark_n and_o part_n of_o the_o true_a religion_n 1._o teach_v to_o know_v one_o only_a god_n creator_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o who_o conserve_n and_o govern_v all_o thing_n by_o his_o providence_n 2._o it_o discover_v to_o the_o sinful_a man_n the_o true_a mean_a to_o be_v reconcile_v with_o god_n namely_o by_o the_o mercy_n of_o jesus_n christ_n our_o redeemer_n by_o who_o alone_o have_v satisfy_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n his_o father_n his_o wrath_n may_v be_v appease_v towards_o sinner_n who_o repent_v and_o believe_v 3._o it_o prescribe_v in_o what_o manner_n the_o true_a god_n be_v to_o be_v serve_v and_o honour_a namely_o in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n refer_v all_o to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o the_o salvation_n of_o man_n and_o admit_v nothing_o either_o absurd_a or_o unjust_a of_o the_o agreement_n and_o of_o the_o difference_n between_o the_o religion_n of_o the_o ancient_a jew_n and_o the_o true_a christian_a religion_n which_o we_o christian_n do_v embrace_v 1._o of_o the_o agreement_n between_o both_o the_o say_a religion_n 1._o god_n be_v the_o author_n and_o the_o efficient_a cause_n of_o both_o 2._o christ_n be_v the_o foundation_n of_o both_o by_o who_o only_a merit_n all_o the_o faithful_a since_o the_o first_o sin_n of_o our_o first_o parent_n have_v be_v and_o be_v reconcile_v unto_o god_n see_v heb._n 13.8_o rev._n 13.8_o 3._o as_o christian_a religion_n so_o the_o religion_n of_o the_o ancient_a jew_n do_v aim_n to_o stir_v up_o a_o desire_n of_o the_o bless_a immortality_n and_o to_o confirm_v the_o hope_n of_o the_o same_o 4._o both_o the_o religion_n do_v bring_v and_o do_v bring_v justification_n and_o sanctification_n to_o the_o faithful_a of_o the_o old_a and_o of_o the_o new_a testament_n see_v john_n 8.56_o 5._o both_o the_o religion_n have_v be_v seal_v and_o confirm_v to_o the_o faithful_a of_o the_o old_a and_o of_o the_o new_a testament_n by_o the_o selfsame_a holy_a spirit_n 2._o of_o the_o difference_n between_o both_o the_o say_a religion_n 1._o the_o religion_n of_o the_o ancient_a jew_n do_v belong_v only_o to_o one_o nation_n and_o people_n the_o christian_a religion_n belong_v to_o all_o people_n 2._o the_o religion_n of_o the_o ancient_a jew_n by_o many_o ceremony_n do_v shadow_n and_o represent_v christ_n which_o be_v to_o come_v the_o christian_a religion_n do_v teach_v and_o clear_o publish_v that_o he_o be_v come_v 3._o in_o the_o religion_n of_o the_o ancient_a jew_n the_o lord_n under_o some_o earthly_a benefit_n do_v represent_v the_o fruition_n of_o the_o heavenly_a inheritance_n but_o in_o the_o christian_a religion_n direct_o he_o do_v direct_v our_o mind_n to_o the_o meditation_n of_o eternal_a life_n omit_v those_o earthly_a mean_n and_o help_n which_o he_o do_v use_v towards_o the_o ancient_a jew_n 4._o the_o religion_n of_o the_o ancient_a jew_n be_v darker_n but_o the_o christian_a religion_n be_v clear_a 5._o in_o the_o religion_n of_o the_o ancient_a jew_n the_o rite_n of_o their_o sacrament_n be_v bloody_a and_o difficult_a namely_o the_o rite_n of_o circumcision_n and_o of_o the_o paschall_n lamb._n but_o in_o the_o christian_a religion_n they_o be_v without_o blood_n and_o easy_a 3._o 1._o from_o the_o abovesaid_a thing_n it_o appear_v that_o since_o the_o first_o sin_n of_o adam_n there_o have_v be_v but_o one_o way_n to_o attain_v to_o the_o fruition_n of_o salvation_n and_o this_o way_n have_v be_v the_o faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n the_o mediator_n see_v thereof_o gen._n 3.17_o and_o chapt._n 22.18_o act._n 15.11_o and_o 10.43_o 2._o therefore_o the_o doctrine_n of_o those_o be_v to_o be_v reject_v who_o teach_v a_o threefold_a way_n to_o attain_v unto_o salvation_n namely_o 1._o one_o to_o those_o who_o do_v live_v before_o the_o write_a law_n by_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n 2._o the_o second_o to_o those_o who_o do_v live_v under_o the_o write_a law_n by_o the_o fulfil_n of_o the_o same_o 3._o and_o the_o three_o to_o those_o who_o do_v and_o do_v live_v under_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o gospel_n by_o the_o faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n 3._o the_o reason_n why_o such_o doctrine_n be_v to_o be_v reject_v and_o explode_v be_v because_o the_o faithful_a and_o believer_n under_o the_o old_a testament_n have_v have_v redemption_n in_o christ_n by_o his_o blood_n which_o be_v to_o be_v shed_v as_o we_o have_v by_o his_o blood_n which_o be_v shed_v for_o the_o expiatory_a sacrifice_n of_o christ_n have_v have_v a_o save_a virtue_n not_o only_o since_o it_o be_v offer_v unto_o god_n upon_o the_o cross_n but_o even_o from_o the_o eternal_a decree_n of_o god_n and_o the_o efficacy_n thereof_o have_v be_v as_o well_o before_o as_o after_o it_o be_v exhibit_v in_o which_o regard_n it_o be_v say_v of_o christ_n heb._n 13.8_o that_o he_o be_v the_o same_o yesterday_o and_o to_o day_n and_o for_o ever_o and_o rev._n 13.8_o christ_n be_v call_v the_o lamb_n slay_v from_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n 4._o therefore_o all_o the_o faithful_a and_o believer_n under_o the_o law_n have_v have_v redemption_n by_o faith_n in_o christ_n the_o redeemer_n as_o we_o have_v under_o the_o gospel_n abraham_n do_v see_v the_o day_n of_o christ_n and_o be_v glad_a as_o it_o be_v say_v john_n 8.56_o he_o do_v see_v it_o by_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n and_o not_o of_o the_o flesh_n of_o the_o mutation_n which_o happen_v to_o the_o first_o christian_n religion_n in_o the_o great_a prosperity_n and_o pomp_n which_o happen_v to_o the_o church_n under_o the_o empire_n constantine_n the_o first_o christian_a religion_n sudden_o change_v by_o the_o introduction_n in_o it._n of_o the_o ceremony_n and_o superstition_n of_o the_o pagan_n convert_v to_o the_o say_a christian_a religion_n and_o in_o borrow_v the_o word_n and_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o jew_n 1._o 1._o the_o church_n before_o this_o empire_n have_v be_v breed_v in_o the_o hill_n and_o

the_o bishop_n for_o the_o most_o part_n manifest_v she_o to_o the_o world_n be_v ashamed_a to_o present_v her_o such_o to_o the_o gentile_n that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o those_o who_o new_o come_v out_o or_o will_v come_v out_o from_o paganism_n 4._o the_o good_a emperor_n likewise_o who_o be_v desirous_a that_o the_o christian_a religion_n shall_v be_v receive_v by_o their_o people_n more_o curious_a of_o the_o outward_a then_o of_o the_o inward_a of_o the_o appearance_n then_o of_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o ceremony_n then_o of_o the_o substance_n 5._o they_o make_v then_o no_o conscience_n to_o clothe_v the_o say_a church_n after_o the_o fashion_n of_o the_o pagan_n and_o to_o adorn_v she_o with_o the_o ornament_n of_o the_o gentile_n to_o fit_a the_o christian_n service_n and_o ceremony_n to_o those_o of_o the_o pagan_n as_o far_o as_o without_o wrong_n to_o the_o faith_n they_o do_v think_v they_o can_v do_v it_o 6._o and_o this_o proceed_v be_v call_v among_o they_o

the_o christian_a religion_n they_o willing_o borrow_v as_o much_o as_o they_o can_v the_o term_n or_o word_n and_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o jew_n of_o the_o term_n or_o word_n and_o of_o the_o ceremony_n borrow_v from_o the_o jew_n and_o the_o pagan_n when_o the_o christian_a church_n under_o the_o empire_n of_o constantine_n do_v pass_n from_o persecution_n to_o peace_n and_o from_o thraldom_n to_o the_o domination_n 1._o as_o all_o the_o outward_a service_n of_o the_o jew_n and_o of_o the_o gentile_n do_v chief_o consist_v in_o sacrifice_n those_o of_o the_o gentile_n without_o a_o certain_a scope_n and_o those_o of_o the_o jew_n aim_v all_o at_o one_o only_a jesus_n christ_n it_o do_v seem_v hard_a and_o scandalous_a unto_o they_o to_o abolish_v all_o sacrifice_n because_o
