Or A treatise wherein is proued, that the wrytten Word of God (though most sacred, reuerend, and diuine) is not the sole iudge of controuersies, in fayth and religion Agaynst the prime sectaries of these tymes, who contend to maintayne the contrary.

1. de resurrect and of Ambrose (p) In c. 4. ad Ephes all which Fathers do vnderstand by those wordes of Matthew in corde terrae Hell 22. We also alledge for proofe of the same article that saying of the Apostles Qui ascendit ipse est c. He that ascendeth is the same which descended into the lower parts of the earth where the Latin words inferiores partes terrae do not signify the graue as our Aduersaries do interprete but hel and thus we fynd this place expounded by S. Ierome (q) Omnes hi in hunc locum Ambrose Chrysostome and Theophilact they prouing Christ his descending into hell out of this and the former alledged text 23. For confirmation of Purgatory and Prayer for the dead besides that place of the Machabees which is so plaine as that it needeth no illustration of the Fathers we alledge that place of Matthew (*) c. 12. where it is said that there are some sins which neyther are remitted in this world nor in the world to come Wherby we Catholikes the Fathers afore vs do gather that some sinnes are remitted in the world to come by prayers and suffrages of the Church and this Illation is deduced from this text by S. Austin (r) l. 21. de Ciuit. Dei c. 24. l. 6. in Iulian. cap. 5. S. Ierome (s) lib. 4. dialog c. 39. Bede (t) In c. ● Marci and others 24. Another authority for proofe of Purgatory is vsually alledged out of S. Matthew (u) Math. 5. Lu● 12. and S. Luke where it is sayd Esto consentiens aduersario tuo c. Be at agreement with thy aduersary betymes whiles thou art in the way with him least perhaps thy aduersary deliuer thee to the iudge and the iudge deliuer thee to the officer and thou be cast into prison verily I say to thee thou shalt not go from thence till thou repay the last farthing Now by the last farthing is here mistically and figuratiuely vnderstood small sinnes which shal be payed for that is shal be punished in the fire of Purgatory and thus is this place expounded by Tertullian (x) l. de anima c. 17. Cyprian (y) lib. 4. epist 2. Origen (z) Hom. 35. in Luc. Ambrose (a) In c. 12. Luc. and Ierome (b) In c. 5. Math. who thus plainly interpreteth the former words Hoc est quod dicit non egredieris de carcere donec minuta peccata persoluas that is This he saith Thou shalt not get out of prison till thou hast discharged euen thy little sinnes 25. Touching Prayer to Saintes And first that Saintes do intercede and pray for vs we proue out of Ieremy (*) cap. 15. where it is sayd Dixit Dominus ad me si steterint Moyses Samuelcoram me non est anima mea ad populum istum that is If Moyses and Samuel stood afore me my mind is not to this people Meaning that if Moyses and Samuel should thē pray to God for the people of the Iewes yet God would not heare thē out of which place we gather that Moyses and Samuel thē being dead were accustomed at other tymes to pray to God for thē since otherwise this speach of God had bene indirect and to no purpose Now wheras our Aduersaries to auoyd this argument do say that the meaning of this place it not that if Moyses and Samuel in their owne persons but if any other godly men such as Moyses Samuel were should pray to God he would not heare them Yet notwithstanding we find this place expounded literally personally and truly and so consequently against our Aduersaries their answere of Moyses and Samuel by Chrysostome (c) Hom. 1. in epist 1. ad Thes sal Ierome (d) In hūe locum Gregory (e) l 9. moral c. 12. 26. To the same end we produce out of the Machabees (f) 2. Mac. cap. vlt. how Iudas did see in a vision Onias the Priest and Ieremy the Prophet both which were then dead praying for the Iewes Now seing that this booke of the Machabees is accounted true and vndoubted Scripture by S. Austin (g) l. 18. de Ciuit. Dei cap. 36. Cypryan (h) l 1. ep 3. ad Cornelium Ambrose (i) l. 2. de Iacob c. 10. 11. 12. Gregroy (k) Inorat de Mach. Nazianzen and others it therfore followeth that these Fathers acknowledging the Machabees for Scripture and neuer making any other construction of this vision then literall such as the words import do also acknowledge that this place doth infallibly proue that the Saintes do pray for vs. 27 Now more particularly that Saintes are to be prayed vnto we proue by the words in Iob (l) Iob. c. 5. where it is sayd Voca si quis est qui tibi respondeat ad aliquem Sanctorum conuertere That is Call if any there be which may answere thee and turne thy selfe to any of the Saints Where by the name of the Saintes are vnderstood the Angells according to the exposition of S. Austin (m) In annot in Iob. But if Angells do pray for vs then do Saintes the like since there is one and the same reason of both 28. Now to make an end of this Chapter I will finally rest in bringing a place or two out of the Scripture to proue that the Eucharist is a true and proper though vnbloudly Sacrifice contrary to our Aduersaries wicked Doctrine herein And first we are accustomed to alledge in proofe hereof the priesthood of Melchisedech of whome it is thus said Melchisedech (n) Genes 14. rex Salem protuli● c. that is Melchisedech being King of Salem did offer bread and wyne for he was a priest of the high God Now not only Dauid (o) Psalm 109. but also S. Paul (p) Hebr. 7. do so referre this place to Christ as that S. Paul doth plainly say that Christ was a Priest according to the order of Melchisedech not according to the order of Aarō Now if Christ be a Priest according to the order of Melchisedech then the reason hereof is in that Christ is to institute an vnbloudy sacrifice vnder the forme of bread and wyne and so we Catholikes do hould that this he did when he first instituted the blessed Eucharist And answerably hereto the Fathers do interprete those words of the Psalmist (q) l. 4. stormat Thou art a Priest according to the order of Melchisedech and the like words of S. Paul to wit that Christ is therfore properly and truly called a Priest according to the order of Melchisedech because he instituted at his last supper a Sacrifice vnder the formes of bread and wyne Thus are those former places expounded by Clemens (r) lib. 5. demonstr Euāg c. 3. Alexandrinus Eusebius (s) l. ● ep 3. ad Caecil Caesariensis Cyprian (t) Haeres ●9 Epiphanius (u) lib. 5. de Sacram. c.
