be_v forbid_v namely_o 1_o worship_v of_o creature_n and_o 2_o superstition_n theoph._n what_o cause_n have_v thou_o to_o say_v that_o these_o two_o evil_n be_v forbid_v in_o this_o commandment_n mat._n because_o they_o be_v of_o the_o same_o kind_n with_o idolatry_n for_o they_o tend_v hereunto_o to_o declare_v by_o the_o outward_a gesture_n of_o the_o body_n the_o worship_n which_o they_o think_v they_o give_v unto_o god_n whereupon_o it_o be_v that_o these_o two_o be_v call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o idolatry_n theoph._n right_n for_o both_o the_o worshipper_n of_o creature_n and_o superstitious_a person_n have_v accustomable_o be_v call_v idolater_n as_o well_o as_o the_o worshipper_n of_o idol_n mat._n and_o very_o they_o be_v join_v together_o by_o a_o most_o near_a bond_n for_o idolatry_n always_o accompany_v the_o worship_v of_o creature_n and_o bring_v forth_o sundry_a superstition_n theoph._n creature_n of_o the_o adoration_n of_o creature_n let_v we_o speak_v of_o these_o two_o evil_n what_o understand_v thou_o by_o the_o adoration_n of_o creature_n mat._n the_o religous_a worship_n which_o be_v give_v unto_o they_o theoph._n why_o so_o mat._n because_o adoration_n belong_v only_o unto_o god_n whereof_o the_o scripture_n itself_o be_v a_o plentiful_a witness_n whereupon_o it_o follow_v that_o we_o can_v bestow_v never_o so_o little_a of_o it_o upon_o any_o creature_n whether_o it_o be_v visible_a or_o invisible_a of_o what_o condition_n soever_o but_o we_o do_v take_v from_o and_o diminish_v the_o worship_n due_a to_o the_o creator_n therefore_o the_o angel_n say_v unto_o john_n 10_o apo._n 19_o 10_o which_o have_v fall_v down_o at_o his_o foot_n to_o worship_v he_o see_v thou_o do_v it_o not_o i_o be_o thy_o fellow_n servant_n one_o of_o thy_o brethren_n worship_n god_n theoph._n but_o do_v thou_o comprehend_v under_o that_o prohibition_n the_o worship_n &_o reverence_n which_o be_v usual_o give_v to_o man_n that_o be_v alive_a mat_n not_o so_o very_o so_o as_o it_o be_v only_o civil_a for_o if_o there_o be_v never_o so_o little_a affection_n mingle_v tend_v towards_o religion_n it_o be_v corrupt_a and_o displease_v god_n for_o this_o cause_n peter_n refuse_v the_o reverence_n do_v to_o he_o by_o cornelius_n 26._o act._n 10._o 26._o for_o the_o holy_a apostle_n perceive_v that_o that_o reverence_n be_v not_o mere_o civil_a but_o have_v mix_v with_o it_o somewhat_o of_o religion_n now_o if_o it_o be_v unlawful_a to_o worship_v saint_n yea_o the_o very_a angel_n themselves_o how_o much_o more_o unlawful_a be_v it_o to_o worship_v their_o image_n relic_n the_o cross_n of_o christ_n the_o likeness_n of_o it_o and_o such_o like_a theoph._n let_v we_o come_v to_o superstition_n what_o mean_v thou_o by_o this_o word_n mat._n be_v it_o call_v superstition_n when_o any_o worship_v god_n by_o rite_n or_o ceremony_n devise_v of_o man_n of_o this_o sort_n be_v 1_o to_o wear_v a_o certain_a kind_n of_o apparel_n for_o religion_n sake_n 2_o to_o hold_v difference_n of_o place_n in_o worship_v of_o god_n 3_o to_o observe_v day_n and_o time_n for_o that_o purpose_n 4_o to_o make_v a_o difference_n of_o meat_n 5_o to_o abstain_v from_o marriage_n and_o such_o other_o invention_n of_o man_n whereof_o paul_n thus_o speak_v 23._o col._n 2._o 23._o which_o thing_n have_v indeed_o a_o show_n of_o wisdom_n in_o voluntary_a religion_n and_o humbleness_n of_o mind_n and_o in_o not_o spare_v of_o the_o body_n yet_o they_o be_v not_o any_o thing_n worth_a yea_o rather_o they_o be_v to_o the_o contempt_n of_o god_n and_o hinder_v our_o salvation_n theoph._n how_o be_v they_o to_o the_o contempt_n of_o god_n matth._n because_o he_o prefer_v obedience_n before_o sacrifice_n and_o will_v be_v worship_v not_o after_o the_o invention_n of_o man_n but_o according_a to_o his_o own_o will_n which_o he_o have_v therefore_o make_v know_v unto_o us._n therefore_o christ_n say_v to_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisy_n 9_o mat._n 15._o 9_o they_o worship_v i_o in_o vain_a teach_v doctrine_n that_o be_v the_o commandment_n of_o man_n moreover_o superstition_n bring_v in_o the_o contempt_n of_o god_n commandment_n and_o of_o that_o worship_n which_o he_o require_v of_o we_o to_o be_v perform_v unto_o he_o which_o experience_n do_v plentiful_o prove_v theoph._n but_o how_o do_v superstition_n hinder_v our_o salvation_n mat._n because_o superstitious_a person_n imagine_v that_o they_o merit_v somewhat_o by_o they_o which_o thought_n turn_v man_n from_o christ_n and_o therefore_o from_o their_o own_o salvation_n for_o that_o cause_n paul_n call_v the_o forbid_v of_o meat_n and_o of_o marriage_n 4._o 1._o tim._n 4._o the_o doctrine_n of_o devil_n it_o be_v therefore_o a_o great_a deal_n better_o to_o go_v on_o slow_o in_o the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n then_o to_o run_v a_o pace_n in_o the_o way_n of_o superstiton_n which_o who_o soever_o have_v enter_v into_o the_o further_o he_o go_v forward_o the_o further_o he_o go_v from_o god_n and_o therefore_o from_o eternal_a life_n theoph._n now_o do_v i_o understand_v what_o superstition_n be_v i_o demand_v why_o see_v there_o be_v three_o evil_n by_o the_o which_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n be_v defile_v idolatry_n only_o be_v short_o touch_v in_o this_o commandment_n mat._n it_o be_v according_a to_o our_o second_o rule_n namely_o that_o god_n when_o he_o mean_v to_o forbid_v many_o sin_n of_o the_o same_o kind_n forbid_v they_o all_o under_o the_o name_n of_o one_o and_o that_o the_o great_a such_o a_o one_o as_o idolatry_n be_v theoph._n why_o think_v thou_o idolatry_n to_o be_v a_o great_a sin_n than_o the_o worship_v of_o creature_n or_o superstition_n matth._n the_o reason_n in_o my_o judgement_n be_v most_o plain_a for_o although_o a_o man_n be_v mad_a already_o when_o he_o forsake_v god_n for_o some_o excellent_a gift_n wherewith_o any_o creature_n have_v be_v adorn_v of_o god_n and_o worship_v that_o creature_n yet_o than_o he_o may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v strike_v through_o with_o rage_n and_o fury_n when_o he_o worship_v a_o sdoll_n make_v by_o the_o industry_n and_o help_n of_o man_n therefore_o the_o scripture_n describe_v that_o vanity_n call_v idol_n the_o work_n of_o man_n hand_n and_o present_o after_o add_v they_o have_v a_o mouth_n and_o speak_v 4._o psal_n 115._o 4._o not_o they_o have_v eye_n and_o see_v not_o they_o have_v ear_n and_o hear_v not_o they_o have_v nose_n and_o smell_v not_o they_o have_v hand_n and_o handle_v not_o they_o have_v foot_n and_o walk_v not_o and_o final_o that_o they_o be_v dead_a in_o which_o word_n he_o signify_v that_o man_n be_v altogether_o out_o of_o their_o wit_n which_o worship_n the_o work_n of_o man_n hand_n a_o image_n dumb_a blind_a deaf_a that_o perceive_v nothing_o and_o be_v void_a of_o all_o the_o sense_n and_o therefore_o inferior_a to_o his_o maker_n and_o worshipper_n which_o appear_v even_o by_o this_o that_o neither_o of_o they_o will_v be_v like_o their_o idol_n theoph._n idol_n against_o worship_v of_o idol_n but_o the_o worshipper_n of_o image_n will_v not_o grant_v thou_o that_o thou_o say_v namely_o that_o they_o worship_v the_o image_n much_o less_o take_v they_o for_o go_n for_o they_o say_v they_o be_v not_o so_o void_a of_o reason_n but_o they_o know_v they_o be_v either_o of_o wood_n or_o stone_n or_o of_o paint_v but_o rather_o they_o affirm_v bold_o and_o constant_o that_o all_o the_o worship_n be_v do_v by_o they_o in_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n or_o of_o the_o saint_n whereof_o they_o be_v image_n mat._n what_o although_o we_o shall_v grant_v they_o all_o that_o they_o say_v be_v not_o this_o extreme_a madness_n that_o they_o will_v worship_v god_n by_o do_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v direct_o forbid_v of_o he_o which_o also_o he_o affirm_v to_o be_v despite_n against_o he_o but_o howsoever_o they_o deny_v it_o it_o be_v so_o for_o when_o they_o prefer_v one_o idol_n before_o another_o and_o for_o religion_n sake_n take_v upon_o they_o long_a pilgrimage_n to_o salute_v such_o a_o image_n do_v mumble_v their_o prayer_n before_o they_o even_o as_o for_o that_o purpose_n they_o have_v many_o image_n with_o they_o it_o be_v clear_a than_o the_o light_n that_o they_o think_v there_o be_v in_o they_o some_o divine_a power_n and_o therefore_o they_o be_v convince_v that_o those_o image_n be_v take_v of_o they_o for_o go_n whereupon_o the_o idolater_n of_o that_o time_n be_v most_o sharp_o reprove_v by_o esay_n although_o they_o even_o then_o seek_v the_o same_o 7._o isa_n 44._o 7._o shift_n so_o be_v the_o devil_n wont_a to_o bewitch_v all_o those_o that_o receive_v idol_n for_o religion_n sake_n for_o at_o the_o beginning_n indeed_o he_o persuade_v they_o that_o they_o be_v receive_v that_o god_n may_v be_v worship_v in_o they_o but_o by_o little_a and_o little_a
