the child of the Devill then themselves Let them not come with their lives in their hands with the hazard of their bloud to pervert them committed to our charge and our selves sit silent but let us lift up our voyces in season and out of season And let them know there are Prophets among them and if the people will not be charmed send them to God with this Inscription on their foreheads Noluerunt incantari They will not be charmed Let us to our power save our owne soules and them that heare us Lastly you the people of God stand fast to the Gospell if an Angell from Heaven preach any other Doctine let him be accursed O search the Scripture throughly It was the speech of a dying Archbishop of this Province one of the last that ever he spoke to his Chaplein I have said much and writ much and read much and preacht much Yet in all the booke of God I doe not finde the least ground for Popery Saint Paul withstood Peter to his face and gave him no place no not for an houre O withstand Peter of Rome who can challenge nothing of Peters but that title which Christ once gave him Sathan and that fact in denying his Master I say withstand him to his face and give him not place no not for an houre I can never sufficiently admire and wonder at the speech of blessed Luther who though he was very earnest to have the Communion administred in both kinds contrary to the Doctrine and custome of the Church of Rome yet he professes if the Pope as Pope commanded him to receive in both kindes he would but receive in one kind It s a generall rule among the best that what the Pope commands as Pope though it bee good or indifferent as to pray to read to lift up an eye a hand to weare blacke or white a lace a modell to drop a Bead as the Pope commanding it It is a receiving the marke of the beast a yeelding our selves the Vassalls of Sathan and an Implicite denying the faith of Christ So extremely venimous is the poyson that lyes at the root of that fundamentall heresie which they have layed at the very Rocke and foundation of their faith so dangerous and pernitious it is to hearken to the Pope The renowned Martyrs in Queene Maries days would show no reverence to the commissioners from the Pope and let mee tell you there are many things in the Church of Rome that may be that are decent to be used in the Church of God some things there are at this day in practise in the Church of Rome that were in use in that Church when it was not Antichristian in the times of the Primitive Bishops and blessed Martyrs Some things used that are not yet commanded by the Pope as Pope what ever we use with the Church of Rome we use it as commanded by another power not because commanded by the Pope so that what we doe is to bee accounted an Act of obedience what they doe is to bee condemned because commanded by the Pope be wise as Serpents Innocent as Doves rightly distinguish of times places and persons so shall you not endanger your own soules nor disobey them that are over you nor scandall them that live with you Lastly must we stand fast Let us give thanks to our Lord God that we stood fast to this day It is very meet and our duty that wee should at all times and in all places give thankes to thee ô Lord holy father but chiefely for the deliverance of this day from that unparallell'd matchlesse damnable Gunpowder Treason Therfore with Angels and Archangels and all the glorious company of heaven we laud and magnifie the name of God and say Holy holy holy Lord God of Sabboth glory be to God on high O all ye works of the Lord praise ye the Lord blesse him and magnifie him for ever O all yee Angels of the Lord blesse yee the Lord praise him and magnifie him for ever O all yee Children of men blesse yee the Lord praise him and magnifie him for ever O all yee Priests of the Lord blesse ye the Lord praise him and magnifie him for ever O all yee servants of the Lord blesse yee the Lord praise him and magnifie him for ever O all yee Kings and Emperors all people and Princes all Iudges young men and maides old men and babes praise yee the name of the Lord for his name is only excellent his glory is above the Earth and Heaven hee hath exalted the Horne of his people the praise of all his Saints even the people of England a people neere unto him praise the Lord Happie are we who are like unto us saved by the Lord the shield of our helpe and the sword of our excellency The eternall God is our Refuge and underneath him are the everlasting Armes he hath saved us and if wee trust in him hee will save us from this time forth and for evermore blessed be the God of our salvation and let all the People say Amen FINIS The third SERMON GEN 49. 5 6. and 7. verses Simeon and Levi are Brethren Instruments of cruelty are in their habitations O my soule come not thou into their secret into their assembly mine honour be not thou united for in their anger they slew a man and in their selfe will they digg'd a wall cursed bee their anger for it was fierce and
