will_n of_o god_n for_o it_o shall_v seem_v that_o the_o saint_n be_v not_o angry_a with_o those_o against_o who_o god_n be_v move_v to_o anger_n second_o by_o this_o magnification_n and_o

which_o they_o show_v by_o the_o effect_n by_o the_o ornament_n of_o their_o altar_n which_o be_v most_o precious_a by_o their_o excellent_a music_n the_o multiplication_n of_o their_o taper_n and_o by_o other_o solemnity_n by_o which_o mean_v the_o simple_a people_n be_v induce_v to_o think_v that_o the_o saint_n be_v more_o merciful_a than_o god_n because_o they_o free_v he_o from_o damnation_n by_o those_o prayer_n they_o make_v unto_o god_n who_o god_n have_v condemn_v beside_o this_o to_o maintain_v these_o thing_n the_o simple_a people_n be_v teach_v that_o the_o saint_n desire_v that_o

the_o father_n who_o have_v pay_v for_o our_o sin_n that_o come_v unto_o god_n by_o he_o see_v he_o ever_o live_v to_o make_v intercession_n for_o they_o heb._n 7.25_o no_o man_n come_v to_o the_o

that_o all_o the_o faithful_a have_v he_o in_o their_o mind_n and_o look_v only_o unto_o he_o for_o all_o the_o care_n of_o the_o faithful_a must_v tend_v unto_o christ_n by_o thought_n and_o

he_o we_o believe_v in_o the_o three_o place_n that_o the_o saint_n be_v not_o propose_v unto_o we_o to_o worship_n but_o to_o imitate_v saint_n paul_n say_v be_v you_o follower_n of_o i_o as_o i_o

be_v not_o such_o as_o seek_v for_o honour_n or_o desire_v to_o be_v serve_v by_o we_o but_o by_o he_o by_o who_o they_o be_v illuminate_v they_o rejoice_v that_o we_o be_v their_o companion_n and_o therefore_o they_o must_v be_v honour_v by_o imitation_n and_o not_o adore_v by_o religion_n all_o these_o thing_n due_o consider_v we_o say_v that_o there_o be_v not_o any_o man_n bear_v of_o other_o body_n then_o christ_n which_o may_v be_v adore_v or_o can_v be_v the_o true_a advocate_n and_o mediator_n betwixt_o god_n and_o man_n or_o intercessor_n for_o sinner_n with_o god_n the_o father_n but_o he_o alone_o neither_o be_v it_o necessary_a that_o they_o shall_v be_v invocate_v by_o the_o prayer_n and_o intercession_n of_o the_o live_n it_o be_v he_o that_o by_o special_a privilege_n

for_o they_o saint_n augustine_n write_v concern_v christ_n in_o his_o 64_o psalm_n say_v thou_o be_v the_o sacrificer_n thou_o be_v the_o sacrifice_n thou_o be_v he_o that_o offer_v and_o thou_o be_v
