primam se omnium Ecclesiarum scribebat P. W. Diacon P. de Gest Longobard l. 4. c. 37. If Justinian a little before decreed that the Pope of Rome should be the first of Priests to keep footing at Rome or because of Old Rome was the Imperial Seat yet not as Peter's Successor for the same Justinian pronounced by Law the Church of Constantinople the Head of all the holy Churches And John Bishop of Constantinople assuming the name of Vniversal Bishop about Ann. 590. Gregory Bishop of Rome so disclaimed this Title as he concluded the time of Antichrist to be at hand because John usurped it L. Dupless Histor of Pap. Cent. 6. Magd. c. 7. It being the Controversie of that day he obtained not that first Horn till the time of Phocas As to the second Horn of Temporal Supremacy he obtained not that so early Indeed Celestinus Bishop of Rome about Ann. 424. began to aspire after it passing the bounds of his Priestly Order presumed to challenge unto himself Secular Power and Authority Saith Socrat. Hist l. 7. c. 11. He saith the same of the Bishop of Alexandria ib. l. 7. c. 7. But after Anno 500. Anastasius sent this Answer to Pope Horsmida Imperatoris proprium esse Imperare non imperata Pontificis accipere Cent. 6. Magd. c. 7. And after the Popes of Rome had Confirmation from the Emperors Cent. 7. Magd. c. 7. Et suit ipsa Vrbs Roma non in Pontificum sed Imperatorum potestate dominio ib. Under Justinian by Narses turning out the Goths both Italy and Rome were annexed to the Eastern Empire His Temporal Power and Headship must have its first date either from the Donation of Rome to him which of old was the Imperial Seat or from his obtaining Superiority either over the Head of Emperors or over some of the Ten Horns Now about Ann. 725. the City of Rome came under the Power of the Pope Leo the Emperor forbidding the use of Images in Churches Pope Gregory forbad the Tribute of Italy and Rome Removit Roman Italiam necnon omnia reip quam Ecclesiastica jura in Hesperiis ab obedientia Leonis Imperii sub ipso constituti Romam cum tota Italia ab illius Imperio recedere faciens Paul Diacon Anast l. 21. Saith Platina Leonem tertium Imperatorem Constantinopolitanum Imperio simul communione fidelium privat quiae Sanctas Imagines è Sacris adibus abrasisset Which sufficiently evidenceth that the pretended Donation of Constantine the Great was but a fiction they belonging to the Eastern Empire till now they were usurped by the Pope who made himself Prince of Rome And afterward Pope Zechary deposing Childerick set up Pipinus the French King who in requital compelled Aistulphus King of the Lumbards to restore all the Towns and Lands which he had taken and by his Donation bestowed on him the Exarchate or Princedom of Ravenna and Pentapolis and a very large Dominion and Possession which afterwards were confirmed by others with Additions as by Charles the Great Anno 800. All which argue that now the Pope was become not only a Temporal Prince by the Dukedom of Rome but by getting power over some of the Crowned Horns and opposing and over-topping Emperours so as without their consent by degrees they had their elections and swelled in their power till at last they disannulled the Inauguration placing and displacing Emperours at their pleasure This appeared most manifestly in Hildebrand or Gregory the Seventh Ann. 1073. who not only Excommunicated Henry the Emperour but deposed him and gave away his Kingdom to Rodolphus Duke of Suevia And now Emperours had their confirmation from Popes whereas of old the Popes had confirmation from the Emperours Whether this were the first of his being Regnant as some assert or the time of his being Triumphant in the Temporal Power I leave it to others to judge 3. He spake as a Dragon so did Hildebrand and other Popes not only in their Excommunications and Depositions but also in those they call Hildebrands Dictates or Canons and Decrees as That no Book may be accounted Canonical without his Authority That he ought to be judged of none Vid. Onuphr in vita Greg. 7. 4. He exerciseth all the Power of the first Beast before him and causeth the Earth to worship the first Beast Rev. 13. 12. This the Pope doth by letting none be Emperours without his confirmation deposing Emperours and sending the Imperial Crown to others as Rodolphus setting up persecuting Emperours at his pleasure and causing the Earth to obey their decrees by influencing the Horns to persecute As Pope Martin perceiving the Gospel prevailed in Bohemia stirred up the Emperour and German Princes to making War against the Bohemians and thus exercised the power of the first persecuting Beast and caused Earthly men to worship him 5. He doth Wonders so that he maketh fire come down from Heaven and deceiveth the Earth with his Miracles Rev. 13. v. 13. 14. So the Pope as a false Prophet pretendeth to Miracles One saith that the garments of Hildebrand or Gregory after his death wrought Miracles Cardinal Benno who lived at the same time saith of Hildebrand that when he list he would shake his Skirts and fire would come out like sparks and by such Miracles he abused the eyes of simple People and therefore when the Devil could not persecute publickly Jesus Christ by Painims he disposed himself fraudulently to destroy his name by this false Monk under the shew and colour of Religion Estate of the Church p. 298. Benno in vit Hildebrandi Vsher Graviss Quaest Hist Explic. Also to incourage Rodolph in War against the true Emperour Henry which he had deposed Hildebrand foretold that the false King whom he interpreted to be Henry should die the same year before the Feast of St. Peter But Rodolph lost his life before the day and Henry lived after and so Hildebrand not only by false Miracles but by foretelling what did not come to pass was proved to be a false prophet Deut. 18. 20 21 22. Rev. 19. 20. Matth. Paris Onuphr B. Vsher Graviss Quaest Histor Explic 6. He saith to them that dwell on the Earth that he would or they should make an Image to the Beast Rev. 13. v. 8. 14 What this Image is it is a great question It must be an Image not of the second but of the first Beast that was Wounded v. 14. and so it is not the first Beast it self and the rather because the Beast and Image are made distinct Rev. 14. 9. but a representation or resemblance of him yet such as the false Miracles were to win Credit and Honour to this Image v. 14. saying that they should make an Image which in making is to when once made of the Beast v. 15. or that he had made it and he urgeth worshipping of it upon pain of death v. 15. This is not Image worship for Images are dead things but this is living
