A58130 A dialogue betwixt two Protestants in answer to a popish catechism called A short catechism against all sectaries : plainly shewing that the members of the Church of England are no sectaries but true Catholicks and that our Church is a found part of Christ's holy Catholick Church in whose communion therefore the people of this nation are most strictly bound in conscience to remain : in two parts. Rawlet, John, 1642-1686. 1685 (1685) Wing R352; ESTC R11422 171,932 286

may_v the_o king_n of_o france_n do_v the_o same_o in_o he_o as_o if_o the_o pope_n shall_v provoke_v he_o probable_o he_o may_v and_o so_o may_v all_o other_o if_o they_o please_v by_o which_o mean_v

yea_o even_o reduce_v to_o nothing_o no_o wonder_n therefore_o if_o bellarmine_n in_o the_o preface_n to_o his_o book_n of_o the_o romish_a bishop_n style_v this_o doctrine_n of_o his_o supremacy_n the_o very_a sum_n or_o chief_a point_n of_o christianity_n have_v he_o say_v of_o popery_n it_o have_v be_v true_a enough_o for_o it_o be_v plain_a they_o look_v upon_o this_o as_o one_o of_o the_o most_o weighty_a article_n of_o their_o faith_n let_v this_o be_v deny_v our_o conformity_n to_o their_o church_n in_o all_o other_o thing_n will_v signify_v little_a or_o nothing_o as_o it_o appear_v in_o henry_n the_o eighths_n case_n for_o though_o he_o still_o retain_v the_o main_a body_n of_o popery_n yet_o because_o he_o reject_v this_o power_n of_o the_o pope_n he_o be_v reckon_v and_o

such_o homage_n they_o pay_v to_o this_o their_o great_a master_n that_o even_o in_o thing_n of_o a_o indifferent_a nature_n they_o will_v rather_o yield_v obedience_n to_o his_o command_n than_o to_o those_o of_o their_o own_o prince_n and_o that_o be_v plain_a from_o this_o instance_n among_o other_o that_o for_o a_o considerable_a time_n in_o queen_n elizabeth_n day_n the_o papist_n come_v to_o

as_o the_o chief_a reason_n of_o their_o not_o take_v the_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n so_o certain_o true_a it_o be_v that_o a_o papist_n act_v according_o to_o the_o rule_n of_o his_o own_o church_n can_v be_v no_o further_o a_o good_a subject_n than_o the_o pope_n will_v give_v he_o leave_v nor_o have_v any_o doctrine_n be_v more_o destructive_a of_o the_o right_n of_o prince_n and_o the_o

even_o because_o we_o will_v not_o believe_v the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n to_o be_v christ_n vicar_n on_o earth_n l._n for_o the_o sake_n of_o this_o i_o be_o more_o apt_a to_o suspect_v the_o rest_n of_o their_o popish_a doctrine_n but_o though_o the_o pope_n be_v not_o christ_n vicar_n yet_o be_v it_o not_o too_o severe_a to_o style_v he_o antichrist_n for_o so_o it_o seem_v many_o of_o our_o

than_o to_o assert_v his_o supremacy_n but_o pray_v what_o reason_n do_v he_o give_v for_o this_o his_o anger_n and_o his_o confidence_n l._n he_o say_v that_o antichrist_n shall_v be_v a_o jew_n a_o

even_o now_o quote_v that_o he_o who_o shall_v take_v on_o he_o the_o title_n of_o universal_a bishop_n be_v the_o forerunner_n of_o antichrist_n and_o so_o far_o as_o pope_n gregory_n infallibility_n may_v be_v allow_v they_o may_v serve_v to_o prove_v his_o successor_n to_o be_v a_o antichristian_a generation_n of_o man_n but_o without_o go_v about_o positive_o to_o define_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o antichrist_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n that_o which_o i_o will_v chief_o recommend_v to_o your_o serious_a consideration_n in_o this_o matter_n be_v this_o that_o though_o the_o bishop_n of_o

antichristian_a and_o so_o may_v the_o abettor_n of_o it_o who_o have_v by_o the_o most_o vile_a and_o unchristian_a method_n carry_v on_o the_o same_o to_o make_v this_o manifest_a in_o a_o few_o word_n consider_v that_o our_o bless_a saviour_n have_v express_o tell_v we_o that_o his_o kingdom_n be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n do_v not_o consist_v in_o riches_n honour_n and_o worldly_a

enough_o declare_v that_o his_o kingdom_n be_v of_o this_o world_n for_o what_o be_v it_o they_o seek_v after_o and_o so_o earnest_o contend_v for_o but_o worldly_a greatness_n and_o power_n pomp_n and_o glory_n to_o make_v all_o man_n pay_v homage_n and_o obedience_n to_o they_o and_o under_o this_o pretence_n of_o be_v vicar_n of_o christ_n and_o successor_n of_o st._n peter_n have_v the_o

there_o be_v little_a of_o true_a devotion_n in_o their_o worship_n so_o they_o have_v do_v much_o by_o other_o false_a doctrine_n of_o they_o to_o destroy_v righteousness_n truth_n peace_n and_o

to_o they_o who_o after_o this_o by_o their_o principle_n may_v lawful_o rise_v up_o and_o rebel_v against_o they_o yea_o in_o some_o of_o their_o council_n they_o have_v decree_v that_o the_o ruler_n

i_o have_v often_o hear_v and_o my_o author_n seem_v plain_o to_o assert_v it_o t._n there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o truth_n and_o reason_n in_o what_o you_o say_v for_o this_o be_v the_o
