A12211	A friendly advertisement to the pretended Catholickes of Ireland declaring, for their satisfaction; that both the Kings supremacie, and the faith whereof his Majestie is the defender, are consonant to the doctrine delivered in the holy Scriptures, and writings of the ancient fathers. And consequently, that the lawes and statutes enacted in that behalfe, are dutifully to be observed by all his Majesties subjects within that kingdome. By Christopher Sibthorp, Knight, one of his Maiesties iustices of his court of chiefe place in Ireland. In the end whereof, is added an epistle written to the author, by the Reverend Father in God, Iames Vssher Bishop of Meath: wherein it is further manifested, that the religion anciently professed in Ireland is, for substance, the same with that, which at this day is by publick authoritie established therein.	Sibthorp, Christopher, Sir, d. 1632.; Ussher, James, 1581-1656.	1622 (1622)	STC 22522; ESTC S102408	494,750	610

to_o be_v render_v yea_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v a_o reward_n infinite_o above_o the_o value_n of_o all_o man_n work_n and_o therefore_o must_v needs_o be_v give_v of_o grace_n and_o can_v

unto_o they_o and_o which_o they_o hear_v profit_v they_o not_o why_o because_o it_o be_v not_o mix_v with_o faith_n in_o they_o that_o hear_v it_o which_o faith_n be_v god_n gift_n and_o bestow_v

this_o that_o some_o be_v elect_a and_o some_o reprobate_n some_o be_v ordain_v to_o salvation_n and_o some_o to_o damnation_n and_o according_a to_o that_o diversity_n of_o man_n god_n either_o

that_o repentance_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n s._n peter_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n express_o witness_v 5.31_o affirm_v that_o it_o be_v god_n that_o give_v repentance_n to_o
