A09885	A refutation of an epistle apologeticall written by a puritan-papist to perswade the permission of the promiscuous vse and profession of all sects and heresies wherein the vnlawfulnesse and danger of such wicked licence is fully declared by auctoritie of Scriptures, canons, councels, fathers, lawes of Christian emperours, and iudgement of reason.

Toleration A third sort there are who to take away all contrarie profession to extirpate heresies to represse schismes to restraine sects and to procure vnitie in Religion iudge this the onely meanes to wit to permit the promiscuous vse of all Religions to tolerate all Sects to abandon no Heretique or profession whatsoeuer Which wicked deuise how contrarie it is vnto the Word of GOD and the rule of reason how abhorrent from all examples of former ages and states and how pernicious vnto the Common-wealth I will God willing declare in as few wordes and with as much perspicuitie as may be CHAP. II. Reasons against Toleration and Permission of diuers Religions out of the Old Testament Toleration wicked and vnlawfull prooued out of the Old Test Moses 1 IN the Old Testament all communion and societie with Idolaters heretiques and schismatiques is vtterlie forbidden and prohibited Hence it is that Moses spake vnto the Congregation Depart from the tents of these wicked men Korah Dathan and Abiram and touch nothing of theirs least you perish in all their sinnes Numb 16.26 2 It is commanded in the Law that the false Prophet and the seducing Idolater whether he be our brother or sonne or daughter or wife or friend should be taken away from amongst vs and slaine that all IsraÃ«l may heare and see and feare and not dare to commit the like Thou shalt not consent vnto him saith the Text nor heare him neither shall thine eye pittie him nor shew mercie nor keepe him secrete But thou shalt euen kill him thine hand shall be first vpon him to put him to death and then the handes of all the people c. Deut. 13.1 seqq 3 Againe There shall not be amongst you man nor woman nor familie nor tribe which shall turne his hart away this day from the Lord our God to go and serue the gods of these Nations there shall not be amongst you any roote that bringeth forth Gall and Wormewood Deut. 29.18 4 Hitherto appertaineth that for the fact of Achan who tooke of the excommunicate things being sacrificed vnto Idols the Children of IsraÃ«l could not stand before the face of their enemies Iosh 7.1.5 And God threatned he would be no more with them except they would destroy the peccant and guiltie person from amongst them Iosh 7.12 5 This anger of God the IsraÃ«lites feared in so much as when the Reubenites the Gadites and the halfe tribe of Manasses whose lot fell beyond the riuer built themselues an Altar vpon the borders of Iordan they came to warre against them with this exprobration Haue we too little wickednesse of Peor whereof we are not cleansed vnto this day though a Plague came vpon the congregation of the Lord Yee also are turned away this day from the Lord and seeing yee rebell this day against the Lord euen to morrow he will be wroth with all the Congregation of IsraÃ«l Notwithstanding if the land of your possession be vncleane come yee ouer vnto the Land of the possession of the Lord wherein the Lords Tabernacle dwelleth and take possession among vs but rebell not against the Lord nor rebell against vs in building you an Altar besides the Altar of the Lord our God Iosh 22.17.18.19 But when the other excused themselues that they built the Altar not for sacrifices and offerings but only for a witnesse then were the IsraÃ«lites contented and their anger appeased 6 Neither doe the Scriptures forbid vs onely the companie and societie of our Bretheren which were Idolaters and Heretiques but also of any Stranger dwelling among vs and of our Neighbours about vs. Take good heed vnto your selues that you loue the Lord you God Else if you goe backe and cleaue vnto the rest of these Nations that is of them which remaine with you and shall make marriages with them and goe to them and they to you Know you for certaine that the Lord your God will cast out no moe of these Nations from before you but they shall be a snare and destruction vnto you and a whip on your sides and thornes in your eyes vntill you perishout of this good Land which the Lord your God hath giuen you Iosh 23.11.12.13 7 Hereupon after the death of Ioshua The Booke of Iudges when the IsraÃ«lites had made a league with the Cananites an Angell of the Lord came vp from Gilgal to Bochim saying in the person of God I promised that I would neuer breake my couenant with you so that you made no couenant with the Inhabitants of this Land but breake downe their Altars But you haue not obeyed my voice Why haue you done this Wherefore I will not cast them out before you but they shal be as thornes vnto your sides and their gods shall be your destruction Iudg. 2.2.3 By the example of Kings 8 Diuerse was the estate of the Kings of IsraÃ«l and Iudah according as they walked with God prospering when they trusted in God and worshipped him purely and sincerely and decaying when they forsooke him and corrupted the sinceritie of Gods worship and Religion The Kingly Prophet Dauid exhorteth Kings to be wise Dauid and Iudges to be well aduised that they worship GOD and his Annoynted denouncing to the Aduersaries the Almightie power of Christ to the confusion of all that set themselues against him Psal 2.10.11.12 9 And for himselfe speaking of Idolaters he protesteth saying Their offerings of blood will I not offer neither make mention of their names with my lips Psal 16.4 Wherefore this godly King had a very prosperous raigne and good successe in all things as himselfe often acknowledgeth 1. Sam. 15. Psal 18.2 Sam. 22. 10 King Salomon Salomon his Sonne because he fully established the seruice of God according to all that had beene commanded by the Prophets the Lord also established his seate and encreased his glory aboue all the Kings of the earth till he began to decline from the Lord his God and brought the abhominable Idols of the Strange women whom he loued into his Kingdome and houses 1. King 10. Then the Lord raysed vp his Seruant against him who also in the daies of his Sonne so rent away the ten tribes of IsraÃ«l from the house of Dauid that they neuer returned vnto it againe 11 Rehoboam Salomons Sonne Rehoboam because he permitted Iudah to corrupt true Religion

Parma with Spanish forces taking the Rebells part against their lawfull king with Cyclopicall immanitie set vpon them of the Religion whom they could not subdue by any force of armes because it was but vaine for them to fight against GOD. And the Duke of Parma his disgraces and shame in those attempts are commonlie knowne How curteously the Pope entreated Henry 4. K. of France But for the Pope his curteous entreating of the now king of France besides that thereby he prouided for his owne commodity and profites in that kingdome What curteous dealing was it to lash such a mightie king in the person of his Embassadour at Rome after the singing of euery verse of Miserere vntill the whole Psalme was sung out The king of Great Brittaine will neuer enuie or grudge this humanitie and curtesie vnto any Of the queen Mothers dealing towards Protestants The Queene Mother desirous to retaine the Regency in her owne hands during the minoritie of her Sonnes vsed those of the house of Guise as a counterpoyse vnto the Princes of the bloud but neuer granted any thing vnto the Protestants but what had beene granted and ratified before by many publique Edicts Yea from the yeere of our Lord 1562. vntill the yeere 1588. Ian. 5. which was the time of her death she omitted no sleight deuise cunning policie nor diuellish practise that she could possiblie inuent vtterly to extirpate and roote out the Religion out of the kingdome of France As for the Duke Mommorancy the Duke Buillon the Lord of Diguieres and such other they do but as they are bound to doe by publique Edicts Now then let vs see what successe thay had that tooke the contrary course of violence Truxes in these our daies B. of Colen became a Lutheran and desirous to bring the Countrey of his Electorship and so in time the whole Empire to Lutheranisme vsed no violence against his subiects that were Papistes 1 Trucces neuer vsed violence a-against any man first nor last vntill Cassimere gaue him contrarie councell by which he cleane ouerthrew himselfe liued in banishment died in beggerie and left the Countrey without 2 False all hope of euer enioying the Gospell againe The zeale of the Archduke of Stiria was highly commended by the Papistes for his religious minde but not for his vndiscreete attempts in banishing them that were of a contrary Religion out of all his dominions except they would become Papist like himselfe and now it is euident that the moderate gouernment of his Father was much better who considering how dangerous a neighbour he had and the number of those who otherwise would haue liued discontented in his Countrey permitted them their Religion and intreated them no worse then a his other subiects whereby he ended his daies in peace Fol. 18 whereas his Sonne following a more heady course of gouernment was the occasion that some of his subiects 3 Being banished thence vpon pain of Death departed their Countrey and had 4 Most false entercourse with the Turke others stayed and dissembled their Religion while Canisia the key and stay of that countrey was deliuered vp 5 Because they could not choose the Turke winning the same by the dint of his sword by them to the Turke who the more freely spoiled all the Land because the Archduke hauing lost the harts of his subiects wanted men and meanes to resist him A worthy but lamentable mirror for all Princes to looke in and behold how perillous a thing it is to vse violence against 6 Against true Religion whatsoeuer Religion but especially for England that so neere at hand hath such mightie Kings who perhaps would be glad of the like occasions We haue sometimes supported their 7 A lying Libeller subiects against them for zeale of Religion and therefore we haue iust cause to feare the like measure If Charles 5. in Germany had not abated the flame of ciuill warres 8 by forbearing to persecute true Religion by his conniuence and toleration the French King had made as easie an entrance into other parts of the Empire as he did into b those three Imperiall townes Metz Towle and Verdun but by the losse of these Citties his successours haue learned to take a more milde course with their subiects of whatsoeuer Religion least they should open a more dangerous gap for the Turke the professed enemie of the Empire and all Christendome The like toleration as in the Empire is all so permitted in the kingdome of 9 We liue not by examples but by Lawes and rule of Reason Poland by reason of the Moscouit bordering vpon them and in Dantzik as you know there is publique profession of both Religions In Zuitzerland at the first heate many a bloody battaile was fought for Religion but in time they learned to ioyne wisedome with zeale for conseruation of the state and now they liue in peace with all securitie tolerating within their Cantons the one and the other Religion If the King of Spaine had at first permitted libertie of Religion in the lowe Countries he had spared many a million both of men and money and enioyed with
