to what they forbid for ill and to shun the contrary ill where they command good 3. And Mat. 5. 22 1 Thes 5. 22. to shun all kindes and causes and occasions of ill and to use all meanes and opportunities of good And 2. We may and must observe all this Eccl. 7. 29 Heb. 4. 15 Jam. 3. 2 1 John 3. 4 Ro. 6. 12 Heb. 13. 18 Act. 24. 16 Jer. 8. 6 Ro. 13. 8 Luke 1. 6. Heb. 12. 28 Not Exactly and Absolutely as Adam might and Christ did for we offend and sinne all and so break the Law but yet Vprightly and Evangelically that is We must keep our selves from greater sinnes and heartily endeavour and pray against all and grieve and repent when we doe any And thus by Gods grace we may doe and this for Christs merits God accepts and accounts for keeping of the Law without which we cannot do aright Qu. 3. What is it to Pray aright Mat. 6. 9 Ans According to the Patterne of Devotion summ'd up in the Lords Prayer the Rule of our D●sires 1. For Gods glory before our good the Churches before my own and my soul before my body for matter and order And this in love and lowliness with faith and assurance for the manner 2. And that either to the Sense or according to the Words of the Patterne Qu. What assurances hath the true Christian that believing doing and praying aright in this world he shall be happy in another Ans Two great Assurances Gods Tit. 1. 2. Mar. 16. 16. Joh. 3. 15. Heb. 5. 9. Rom. 2. 7. Act. 2. 21. Heb. 6. 17. 18. Heb. 8. 6. Heb. 9. 15. Heb. 9. 18. 26. Heb. 10. 20. Word and Seal 1. Besides Gods Word his Bond which by his power he can and for his truth he will make good It is in a Covenant confirmed with Gods Oath which cannot change by Testament ratified in Christ bloud which must not alter And to this Covenant and Testament are put 2. Gods Broad Seales of mans Salvation the Two Sacraments of Christ Baptisme the Seal of my Birthright to Heaven and the Holy Eucharist the Seal of my Inheritance in it Qu. Are the Sacraments onely Signes and Seales Ans No. As they are Christs Assurances so they are his Conveyances Rom. 4. 11. Tit. 4. 5. Joh. 3. 5. 1 Cor. 10. 16. too and Meanes as well as Signes of grace Baptisme of my Spirituall Birth and life and the Holy Eucharist of my Growth and nourishment to that which is eternall Qu. What is to be gathered from all these Grounds Ans Two Good Resolves for two Important Inquiries 1. Who is the best Christian He that most carefully keeps his Rules and Seales 2. Which is the Best Church That which is made up of such Christians MAT. 18. 20. Where two or three are gathered together in my Name there I am in the midst amongst them There then Devout Soul be thou One in Christs Name and rest confident to be saved since thy Saviour is with thee there Grounds of Protestant Religion How a devout Christian Soul in the midst of the manifold Distractions and Divisions about Religion and Pretensions and Claimes to the Church may upon These Grounds against all seruples rest satisfied and setled in minde and cheerfully goe on in Gods Service to Salvation 1. IF he that Believes Lives and Prayes according to Christs Rules be the True Christian and by all Gods Assurances shall be the Happy Man The next way to Heaven is not to look after Controversie but Conscience and to spend my Zeale and Time not in being Contentious but Religious Since wheresoever I live or am in the Christian World West or East in what Church or Country soever it is not my being a Good Scholler that must save me but a Good Christian Not a learned Disputant for Christ but a Devout Servant to him Nor being of such or such a Party or Side in the Church but a true Member of his Body And even upon These Grounds I may see and discerne enough about the present Controversies and Debates in and concerning the Church For 1. I would aske this Whether I being borne againe and made a Christian by true Baptisme 1. Believing the Scriptures shall be damn'd for not equally believing Traditions Whether believing the Apostels Creed I shall be damn'd for not believing as my Creed the Popes to be as infallible as the Apostles 2. Whether making conscience to serve and worship God I shall be damned for not worshiping Images 3. Whether praying to God as Christ taught Our Father I shall be damned for not Invocating Saints and Angels and saying Our Friend which art in Heaven 4. Whether Receiving the Holy Sacrament in both kindes confessedly according to Christs Institution I shall be damned because the Cup is taken away by a Councell And whether if the Bloud be said to be in the Body it be not so to the Priest too and so by that reason neither People nor Priest are to have the Cup These being Points of Chiefest Difference in Religion betwixt Protetants and Papists an ordinary and indifferent understanding may easily judge by the evidence of Those Christian Grounds whether the Protestant is a damnable Christian 2. Nay secondly I would aske further 1. Whether to give an equall faith to Tradition as Scripture to a Pope as Christ or an Apostle of Christ be not to incurre the great Curse for Additions Rev. 22. 18 2. Whether Worshiping of Crucifixes and Images be not Idolatry damn'd in Scripture against Gods Second Commandement Whether the doing it but Relatively save it according to the Distinction of the Schoole in the ignorant people Or learned either if the Israelites Exod. 32. 4 5 8. were Idolaters for worshiping God in and before the Golden Calfe which was but a Relative worship 3. Whether Praying to Saints confessed to be an Unstatutable worship be not a sinne of Superstition against God and praying to be heard and help't for their Merits sake a Great injury to Christ 4. Whether to give the Sacrament without the Cup be not as Pope Gelasius said A grand Sacriledge and so to take it to receive but halfe the Communion And whether the people may not justly doubt and feare they Receive None if but Halfe These being the Points and practises of the Romane Church the unprejudic'd may judge whether the Papists be not the more dangerous Religion 2. If it be said there is but One Ancient Visible Catholique Church of Christ out of which to depart by Schisme is to goe from Salvation And that is the now-Romane Church and this now doth the Reformed I satisfie my selfe on my former grounds thus 1. Out of the Catholique Church is Universa●ity no salvation because that 's the Congregation of Christian men all over the World and none can be saved but a Christian But Is the West all the World Are there not Christians in the East Or doe Papists take up
difficulty because our Christianity is purged from such corruptions Then I aske If he be mad that being to passe over a deepe River will leave a Bridge for a narrow Planke Is he wise that in the Great Case of Eternall life and Salvation will put his Soule on a perplext and perillous way when he may goe a plaine and a safe one 2. And by that Argument should not every Papist turne Protestant Believe Worship Pray Come to Service and Sacrament with us For 1. They confesse with us Scripture is infallible but we say not the Pope The Rule of Faith say both but not Tradition say we Safe to believe the Old Creed both grant but a New One we deny To trust to Christs Merits sure with both but not to ours with us Both believe Heaven and Hell but we have no faith for Purgatory The Protestants then is the safer Faith 2. And to worship God they say with us is safe and profitable piety but to worship Images we say is damnable Idolatry Ours therefore is the safer Worshipping 3. And to pray to God in Christs Name both grant good Religion but to call to Saints for helpe or to God in their Name we say grosse Superstition That therefore is the safer Praying 4. And in the Sacrament of the Eucharist a Sacrifice Commemorative both grant but a Propitiatory we disclaime A Reall Presence both allow but the way of Transubstantiation we reject The Cup by Institution and Primitive Observation we and they confesse A power of Alienation we abhorre This therefore is the safer Receiving 5. Lastly in our Liturgy is no errour some of them say but in their Missall are many say we Service in a Knowne Tongue is not sinfull with them but in an unknowne unwarantable and against Scripture with us Therefore it 's best to come to our Church to Service and Prayers And so ours by their Confession and Reason is the best Religion To conclude Upon my Grounds before I build all this The True Christian hath Gods Word and Seale for his Salvation He that Believes Does and Praies aright is the True Christian 1. Such a one is a member in and of the Catholike Church though not of the Romane 2. Such Christians the Primitive Times had therefore he is no new but an ancient Christian 3. Where Gods Word and Sacraments are professed and used by such there 's a Church of Christ and visible Christianity 4. And from any Church in the world that is such I will not From the Romane as such I doe not separate So I am no Schismaticall Christian 5. And in these Grounds all agree and so there is Unity And this is the onely plaine Christian way to Heaven and so it 's safest to be Reformed not Corrupted a Catholike Christian not a Particular Romane GAL. 6. 16. And as many as walk according to this Rule Peace be on them and mercy and upon the Israel os God Rules of Devotion for Morning IN the Morning when you first awake What to doe when you awake lift up your eyes to God and say I lift up mine eyes to the Hils from whence cometh my help Then lift up your heart to God and pray Lord keep me from all sin and danger this day for Jesus Christ his sake When you are up kneel down and say What to doe when you are first up this prayer Almighty God who hast touched my heart with a sense of thy fear and holy dread of thy Majesty I beseech Let this never be omitted thee give me thy grace so to governe my thoughts and look to my words and wayes this day that I may avoid all sinnes Especially those to which I am most inclined or may be most provoked That so my soul and body may be kept pure and unspotted before thee and whensoever the houre of their separation shall come may be ready and prepared for thee through the merits and mercies of Jesus Christ our Lord.

And whatsoever we aske we receive of him because we keep his Commandements and doe the things that are pleasing in his sight JAM 4. 3. Ye ask and receive not because ye ask amisse that ye may spend it on your lusts 1 TIM 2. 8. I will therefore that men pray every where lifting up holy bands without wrath without doubting Preparatory Prayer BReath on me with thy holy Spirit O God that the Breath of mine may now please thee and my Prayers come up as sweet-smelling odours before thee Through the merits of Jesus Christ our Lord Amen!
