A78369	The Catholick mirrour. Or, a looking-glasse for Protestants Wherein they may plainly see the errours of their church, and the truth of the Roman Catholick. Which is divided into seventeen chapters, containing the principle points in dispute between Catholicks and Protestants, and all proved by their own Bible, for the satisfaction of those that desire to imbrace true religion.		1662 (1662)	Wing C1494A; ESTC R229524	59,266	156

now_o and_o yet_o may_v as_o well_o have_v pretend_v the_o spirit_n as_o they_o since_o we_o see_v he_o be_v so_o well_o give_v as_o to_o go_v so_o far_o from_o his_o own_o country_n to_o worship_n

luke_n gospel_n wheere_v he_o declare_v 10._o luke_n 1._o v._o 10._o that_o when_o zacharias_n the_o priest_n be_v offer_v and_o pray_v to_o god_n in_o the_o temple_n for_o himself_o and_o all_o the_o people_n that_o the_o whole_a multitude_n of_o the_o people_n be_v pray_v without_o at_o the_o time_n of_o his_o offering_n incense_n by_o which_o it_o appear_v that_o they_o know_v not_o what_o he_o

to_o take_v notice_n that_o the_o public_a or_o common_a service_n of_o god_n church_n be_v compose_v of_o sucrifice_n prayer_n and_o thanksgiving_n be_v therefore_o chief_o design_v for_o the_o honour_n and_o glory_n of_o god_n as_o be_v every_o day_n offer_v up_o to_o he_o by_o the_o priest_n and_o not_o for_o the_o edification_n of_o the_o people_n so_o much_o by_o understand_v it_o as_o by_o the_o benefit_n they_o receive_v and_o partake_v of_o be_v present_a at_o it_o for_o when_o the_o priest_n say_v the_o service_n of_o the_o church_n he_o offer_v it_o to_o god_n for_o himself_o

that_o it_o matter_n not_o whether_o they_o understand_v he_o or_o no_o since_o they_o have_v as_o much_o benefit_n of_o his_o prayer_n as_o if_o they_o do_v for_o if_o they_o hear_v he_o not_o speak_v a_o word_n it_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n so_o long_o as_o god_n both_o hear_v he_o and_o understand_v he_o to_o who_o it_o be_v offer_v and_o design_v for_o in_o sacrifice_n prayer_n and_o thanksgiving_n the_o priest_n speak_v to_o god_n and_o not_o to_o the_o people_n for_o example_n when_o any_o man_n lie_v sick_a or_o in_o distress_n at_o home_n he_o send_v to_o the_o church_n to_o be_v pray_v for_o by_o the_o minister_n and_o congregation_n now_o shall_v we_o think_v because_o he_o hear_v nor_o understand_v not_o those_o which_o pray_v for_o he_o that_o he_o have_v no_o benefit_n by_o their_o prayer_n this_o be_v absurd_a to_o think_v for_o than_o we_o shall_v be_v never_o the_o better_a for_o our_o saviour_n intercession_n to_o his_o heavenly_a father_n for_o we_o who_o we_o understand_v not_o nor_o know_v when_o nor_o for_o what_o he_o intercede_v to_o he_o and_o yet_o we_o all_o receive_v much_o good_a by_o it_o and_o so_o we_o do_v in_o the_o priest_n say_v the_o divine_a service_n who_o represent_v the_o place_n of_o our_o saviour_n on_o earth_n to_o mediate_v for_o we_o and_o we_o be_v assure_v that_o the_o effectual_a servant_n prayer_n of_o a_o righteous_a man_n prevail_v much_o 16._o james_n 5._o v._o 16._o whether_o we_o hear_v and_o understand_v they_o or_o no_o but_o yet_o to_o discover_v the_o folly_n of_o those_o that_o impugn_v this_o practice_n they_o may_v please_v to_o take_v notice_n that_o the_o latin_a tongue_n be_v not_o so_o much_o unknown_a or_o understand_v as_o it_o be_v think_v it_o be_v for_o if_o there_o be_v any_o

those_o people_n that_o do_v not_o be_v so_o well_o instruct_v by_o the_o church_n that_o with_o the_o instruction_n and_o the_o custom_n of_o hear_v mass_n they_o know_v when_o to_o kneel_v and_o when_o to_o stand_v when_o to_o pray_v and_o when_o to_o give_v thanks_o when_o to_o do_v reverence_n and_o when_o not_o beside_o most_o of_o the_o service_n they_o have_v in_o their_o english_a
