which_o be_v do_v without_o his_o word_n and_o commandment_n to_o be_v idolatry_n and_o wickedness_n i_o call_v idolatry_n after_o the_o fashion_n of_o the_o prophet_n not_o only_o that_o which_o be_v

and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n i_o call_v those_o faithful_a which_o do_v acknowledge_v and_o serve_v one_o only_a god_n of_o heaven_n after_o his_o word_n and_o commandment_n 2._o of_o who_o all_o

that_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o any_o christian_a to_o be_v assistant_n neither_o in_o spirit_n nor_o body_n to_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o idolater_n nor_o also_o to_o enter_v into_o their_o

the_o holy_a prophet_n and_o apostle_n have_v do_v and_o not_o for_o to_o dissemble_v as_o hypocrite_n for_o if_o the_o body_n be_v a_o creature_n of_o god_n as_o it_o be_v as_o the_o soul_n be_v the_o temple_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o member_n of_o the_o mystical_a body_n of_o christ_n if_o it_o must_v one_o day_n rise_v again_o and_o possess_v the_o eternal_a life_n with_o the_o soul_n it_o must_v also_o necessary_o be_v that_o it_o be_v altogether_o give_v unto_o the_o serve_a of_o god_n in_o this_o world_n with_o the_o soul_n and_o spirit_n otherwise_o they_o can_v be_v join_v together_o after_o the_o general_a resurrection_n but_o be_v separate_v the_o one_o shall_v be_v in_o heaven_n with_o god_n who_o be_v love_v and_o the_o other_o in_o hell_n with_o the_o devil_n who_o he_o serve_v 12._o the_o which_o be_v a_o impossible_a thing_n therefore_o i_o say_v that_o all_o those_o dissymulation_n to_o be_v a_o very_a renounce_n of_o christ_n and_o of_o his_o gospel_n 6._o in_o like_o manner_n i_o believe_v &_o confess_v that_o all_o those_o fayninge_n and_o false_a show_n by_o which_o the_o verity_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v hide_v and_o the_o word_n of_o god_n despise_v or_o by_o which_o the_o ignorant_a and_o infidel_n be_v confirm_v in_o his_o error_n or_o by_o which_o the_o weak_a be_v offend_v be_v not_o of_o god_n but_o of_o satan_n altogether_o contrary_a unto_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o word_n 18._o therefore_o we_o must_v not_o halt_v on_o both_o side_n but_o go_v upright_o before_o that_o great_a god_n which_o see_v 4._o behold_v &_o know_v all_o thing_n yea_o before_o they_o be_v begin_v the_o lxxxvii_o article_n 97._o i_o do_v also_o believe_v that_o the_o begin_n of_o all_o idolatrye_n be_v the_o excogitation_n and_o first_o invention_n of_o image_n 6._o the_o which_o also_o be_v make_v to_o the_o abomination_n and_o offence_n of_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n and_o be_v as_o snare_n and_o net_n to_o the_o foot_n of_o the_o ignorant_a for_o to_o make_v they_o stumble_v therefore_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v honour_v serve_v adore_v 114._o nor_o suffer_v in_o the_o temple_n or_o church_n 29._o nor_o in_o the_o place_n where_o the_o christian_n do_v assemble_v themselves_o together_o for_o to_o hear_v and_o understand_v the_o word_n but_o altogether_o to_o be_v take_v away_o &_o destroy_v 18.23_o as_o the_o second_o

for_o the_o wood_n of_o the_o gybbit_n by_o which_o one_o do_v justice_n be_v bless_v of_o god_n but_o the_o image_n make_v with_o man_n hand_n be_v curse_a of_o god_n and_o he_o that_o make_v it_o with_o it_o therefore_o we_o ought_v to_o keep_v our_o self_n from_o image_n above_o all_o thing_n behold_v what_o i_o believe_v of_o the_o catholic_a church_n and_o of_o the_o thing_n concern_v the_o
