they should not answer is this they know it well enough and then what neede of answere but how knoweth the Pastor the state of his flocke as he ought to doe a Acts 20.28 if hee know not their knowledge and that by their answer but they know but cannot vtter What not at all in no sort able to speake so that another may vnderstand that they vnderstand it is a rule in the Law and good in reason that Not to bee and not to appeare or made knowne to be is all one There is weaknesse I confesse in manie touching this point in their owne words to deliuer that which otherwise they conceiue and let these then especially thanke their mother who respecting their infirmity teacheth thē to speak and giueth very words and the same very godly wise learned and most materiall into their mouthes by answeres appointed in publike Catechisme And of this no more the thing is so plaine and of that nothing as being nothing which yet I haue heard that they must doe their fathers their masters businesse their earthly fathers and masters they meane though this busines to know and doe their fathers their masters will which is in heauen lie still as accounted no businesse at all But miserable seruant is he who knoweth no Master but on earth and most vnhappie childe whose father is not our Father in Heauen Whose will and pleasure is first to be knowne and his seruice preferred before all other The second sort of obiections is against the kinde or manner of Catechising by the Minister his teaching say they is darke Be it so for so is all teaching of other things at first and this especially more different from our nature more hindered by Satan by many esteemed much lesse necessarie then worldly knowledge and therefore is giuen the lesse attention for vnderstanding and sooner a little learned to helpe on further is forgotten and euery Teachers gift is not alike and yet euerie lawfull Teacher must be heard and many of better and quicker capacitie finde that verie easie which others not hauing this gift of GOD who is bound to none z Matth. 20.15 doe thinke and report to bee hard and darke Againe they obiect against the time saying Hee is too long but halfe an hower or some what more yea sometimes an hower is not to long If any exceede or fault much herein through indiscretion let them mend their fault or beare the blame they haue deserued But he teacheth with austeritie I like it not but I allow that he teach as with authoritie a Tit. 2.15 and yet tenderly as neede requireth the poorest in the place no lesse then were hee the Kings sonne But some worst of all and by the verie suggestion of the deuill himself in this most occupied effectually of none if possible as neither professedly or vocally of any especially in the face of the Congregation to be forsaken when all is well done in matter and manner without exception accuse the minde and obiect ill meaning and it is say they to shew learning and it is to bee singular and it is to keepe vnder and I know not what It was the secret obiection against Christ himselfe whose workes and actions beeing perfectly good in the eyes of all men and by the iudgement of that sense which could not erre no man could possibly obiect against them Neither were his words and doctrine lesse holy and good but heere notwithstanding because the tongue may deceiue they ranne to his conscience accusing his inward corrupt and guilefull meaning which in my iudgement causeth the holy Ghost in the Prophet and other places expresly to adde Neither was there guile found in his mouth b Isa 53.9 That is what he alwaies spake most holily and well vnto the eares of all men hee ment it sincerely without any the least staine or mixture of euill thought or hypocrisie And charitie which is not suspicious c 1. Cor. 13.7 when matter and forme cannot bee faulted feareth to accuse the inward thoughts and leaueth that iudgement as of right belonging vnto GOD alone According vnto which I also conclude with the Apostles admonition Iudge nothing before the time vntill the Lord come who will lighten things that are hid in darkenesse and make the counsels of the hearts manifest And then shall euerie man both Minister and people according as their thoughts wordes and workes are haue prayse or dispraise of GOD d 1. Cor. 4.5 To whom bee prayse and glorie for euer Amen CERTAINE POSITIONS OF LIKE CONSIDERATION with the former Wherein sometimes for more full explication the same thing almost is set downe in other words HE that is much vnwilling to learne Christ by the voice of his Mother the Church of Christ is not yet come to bee a true childe of the Church and keepeth his name and place in the Church onely by some outward profession Knowledge of the Mysterie of Christ in a sufficient measure vttered sufficiently in any manner when lawfully required and ioyned with good life may commend a man for a sufficient Christian. A willing minde to learne with dutifull endeuour and able to vtter and vttering when neede requireth with seemely reuerence the wordes of knowledge with little or no knowledge as yet of the matter it selfe giueth hope of beeing afterwards a good Christian Refusall to learne either words or matter or compulsiue learning and repeating with the least shew of contempt in place publike and before authoritie giueth signe of a reprobate and childe of the Deuill The bare knowledge of words without knowledge or care of the matter is auaileable so farre onely that such one may bee held a member of the visible Church and if hee so continue is assuredly no member of the true Church Vtter disobedience vnto publike Catechisme especially ioyned with grosse ignorance a true note or triall who is not and will not bee a true Christian.
