idolatry_n two_o kind_n of_o idolatry_n when_o a_o man_n by_o perverse_a opinion_n corrupt_v the_o spiritual_a worship_v of_o god_n the_o second_o when_o the_o honour_n peculiar_a unto_o god_n be_v transfer_v to_o a_o creature_n in_o both_o these_o you_o papist_n most_o heinous_o do_v offend_v for_o you_o think_v that_o god_n which_o be_v a_o spirit_n be_v delit_v with_o your_o mask_a &_o

before_o a_o image_n you_o show_v yourselves_o who_o seruamte_v you_o be_v abase_v your_o estate_n &_o serve_v a_o creature_n for_o the_o proufe_v whereof_o because_o it_o more_o near_o concern_v our_o question_n let_v we_o inquite_n what_o bond_n we_o be_v enter_v in_o with_o god_n to_o serve_v he_o as_o we_o ought_v so_o shall_v we_o see_v whether_o any_o outward_a &_o bodily_a fact_n may_v well_o induce_v we_o to_o say_v or_o think_v any_o man_n a_o idolater_n the_o eternal_a god_n require_v at_o our_o hand_n that_o his_o name_n be_v glorfy_v both_o in_o our_o spirit_n and_o in_o our_o body_n because_o that_o both_o be_v he_o and_o if_o the_o commandment_n do_v not_o extend_v so_o far_o yet_o reason_n do_v convince_v no_o less_o for_o in_o asmuch_o as_o our_o body_n also_o be_v redeem_v with_o the_o precious_a bloodshed_n of_o christ_n what_o a_o shame_n be_v it_o to_o have_v they_o subject_v still_o unto_o the_o devil_n service_n our_o soul_n to_o be_v god_n our_o body_n to_o be_v the_o devil_n whereas_o our_o body_n ought_v to_o be_v the_o temple_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n what_o absurdity_n be_v this_o to_o defile_v they_o with_o sacrilege_n whereas_o our_o body_n be_v foreapoint_v to_o immortality_n and_o partake_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n what_o wickedness_n be_v this_o to_o attaint_v they_o with_o idolatry_n paul_n when_o he_o do_v inveigh_v against_o
