Christ a Saviour to Hell sinne death and the Grave which must bow as well as other things as appeares by the Premises Part 1. Sect. 12. 3. It deprives Christ of the honour of the most of his creatures which cannot possibly performe the Text as they understand it so that it makes Christ Lord but of a few of the creatures who is Lord of all 4. For those that can performe it Part 1. Sect. 12. it gives to Christ the honour onely of one part of the body when he will be honoured with the whole body and soule so that it makes him Lord but of the knee onely 5. It gives him this honour but one day in the weeke ordinarily Part 1. Sect. 12. and that but now and then in that day and but in one place ordinarily when he will be served at all times and places So that it makes Christ Lord but for the space of a few minutes in one day of the weeke and that but in one place 6. It depriveth Christ of his true Subjects Part 1. Sect. 12. and forceth upon him the members of Antichrist 7. Part 1. Sect. 12. It depriveth Christ of his honour and glory at the great Day of Iudgement and makes his Kingdome in the height of it to be extreamly ridiculous 8. It advanceth the Sonne above the Father Part 2. Sect. 3. Part 1. Sect. 9. 9. It giveth greater honour to the Sonne than to the Father and so maketh inequalitie betweene the Persons of the Trinitie 10. It attributeth our salvation either to the bare Name Jesus Part 2. Sect. 3. and so it is flat Idolatry or else it divideth Christ from himselfe making Iesus and Christ two Persons and from Iehovah making him not God or above God and so it is flat blasphemie Answer 1. It attributes the Name unto Him in which all Power Wisdome Goodnesse c. is manifested No man ever had it so as he nor ever shall 2. It maintaineth the Dutie of the Text declaring that the good acknowledge Iesus their Saviour and the bad their Confounder Hell and the Grave in their proper sense come not at this service figuratively they that is all that are there doe 3. It deprives Christ of no Honour That Honour he therein requires the reasonable pay none else are bound thereto And 〈◊〉 your Tenet be not absurd we may lay by Preaching because ●rees have no eares 4. It is a token of the whole mans obedience within and ●ithout The outward without the inward is Hypocrisie 5. It gives him his Honour so as is prescribed to the glory of the Father At no time the knee may bow to any other which according to the circumstances must bow onely unto him when he may thereby be magnified 6. It demonstrates whose we are None can deprive Christ of his nor force other on him 7. It doth not detract from Christs glory but fully expresseth it at the Great Day Not that it is the whole of his glory but to his glory all and setteth his Kingdome at the height 8. It advanceth not the Sonne above the Father but the Father by the Sonne In him onely shall the glory of the Blessed Trinitie be refulgent 9. It honoureth the Sonne as the Father and maketh the Father and the Sonne equall The honour of the Sonne is the Fathers and no other his 10. It attributes our Salvation unto the Person of Jesus declares that he is anointed thereto and that he being Jehovah is the expresse Character of his Father This it doth and he that said the contrary spake Blasphemy 4. In respect of God the Holy Ghost Part 2. Sect. 3. Part 1. Sect. 11. 1. It makes him inferiour to the Second Person 2 It brings his worke into bondage at the will of man yea sometimes of vile men Answer 1. It argues not inequalitie but inferres the incomprehensible Order of the glorious Trinitie The Sonne in and of the Father and the Holy Ghost in and from them both 2. It performes his Worke as he hath instituted Vile men subject it not to their will they are reproved or avoided for blaspheming it and the dutie is done in that 5. Concerning the Church Part 1. Sect. 11. It gives her authoritie over Gods Word Answer It gives her no Authoritie over Gods Word but sheweth that she followeth the Word of God She doth nothing against nothing beside the analogie thereof 6. Concerning our selves 1. It brings us into bondage Part 1. Sect. 11. by making us to perform Gods worship at every mans pleasure and so it enthralls Gods worship to everie mans will 2. It makes the Church a perpetuall prison Part 1. Sect. 11. and the bowing of the knee never to be ended 3. It makes us to respect our owne benefit more than Gods Glory Part 2. Sect. 6. Part 1. Sect. 8 4. It makes us to serve Christ more corruptly than Devils and Rep●obates 5. Part 2. Sect. 6. It will make the Saints at the day of Iudgement worse than Idolaters These dangerous and for the most part blasphemous Consequences besides many other senslesse absurdities doe necessarily arise from this opinion therefore it is insufferable and not to be endured Answer 1. It brings us not into bondage but doth manifest that wee abuse not our Christian libertie Being freed from the bondage of the Law wee are not free to doe as wee list The Church according to Gods Word must discipline us 2. It makes not the Church a Prison unlesse it be a slaverie to serve God The bowing of the knee hath but its time and being a subordinate dutie burthens not the worshippers of God 3. It declares that our Salvation is to the great glory of God Wee expresse our thankfulnesse by it and ascribe the whole benefit unto his grace 4. It is a full argument that we confesse Jesus to be our gracious Redeemer So to glorifie God for such grace can be no error much lesse more then Devillish corruption But 't is high impietie in you to abase our bowing unto Jesus beneath the blasphemies of the damned 5. It expresseth in whom the Saints at the Day of Judgement triumph But it proceeds from the Devill to say that it is worse then Idolatrie to extoll his Name who delivered us from the Devill I have done and for your hard-hard Censure of us tell you that if your Booke come not to a violent end God hath permitted bonis male evenisse evill to betyde the good I left with the first Part of your Booke the beginning of an Ode and I will with this ●orat Car. l. 3. ● 2. the end of another Saepe Diespiter Neglectus incesto addidit integrum Raro antecedentem scelestum Deseruit pede poena claude 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 ERRATA PAge 2. line 23. reade fine p. 4. l. 33. r.
