A56184	A moderate, seasonable apology for indulging just Christian liberty to truly tender consciences, conforming to the publike liturgy in not bowing at, or to the name of Jesus, and not kneeling in the act of receiving the Lords Supper, according to His Majesties most gracious declaration to all his loving subjects concerning ecclesiastical affairs ... / by William Prynne, Esquire ...

a bowing of subjection of all Creatures to his Soveraignty especially in the day of Judgement as I have already evidenced at large Which I shall further demonstrate by these ensuing Scriptures Rev. 1.5 6 8 18. Jesus Christ the first begoten of the dead the Prince of the Kings of the earth c. to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever Amen I am Alpha and Omega the beginning and ending saith the Lord which is and which was and which is to come the Almightie I am he that liveth and was dead and behold I am alive for evermore Amen and have the keyes of Hell and Death Rev. 3.21 To him that overcommeth will I grant to sit with me in my Throne even as I also overcame and am set down in my Fathers Throne Rev. 6.10 And they cryed with a loud voyce how long O Lord holy and true dost thou not judge and avenge our Blood c. And the Kings of the earth and the Great men and the rich men and the chief Capt●ins and the mighty men and every bond-man and free-man hid themselves in the denns c. and said to the Mountains fall on us and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the Throne and from the wrath of the Lamb. R●v 11.15 16 17. And there were great voyces i● heaven saying The Kingdoms of the World are become the Kingdoms of the Lord and of his Christ and he shall reign for ever and ever And the 24. Elders which sate before God o● their seats fell down on their faces and worshiped God saying We give the thanks Lord God Almightie which art and wast and art to come because thou hast taken unto thee thy great Power a●d hast reigned And the Nations were angry and thy wrath is come and the time of the dead that they should be judged and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy Servants and Prophets and to the Saints and them that fear thy name small and great and shouldest destroy them that destroy the earth Rev. 15.3 4. And they sung the song of Moses and of the Lamb saying Great and marvellous are thy works Lord God Almighy ju●t and true are thy wayes thou King of Saints c. Who shall not fear thee O ●ord and glorifie thy name for thou onely art holy for all Nations shall come and worship before thee for thy Judgments are made manifest Rev. 16.7 8 9. And I heard the Angel say Thou art righteous O Lord which art and wast and art to come c. And I heard another under the Altar say Even so Lord God Almighty true and righteous are thy judgements Rev. 18.8 c. Shee shall be burnt with fire for strong is the Lord God that judgeth her Rev. 19.1 2 4 c. After those things I heard a great voyce of more people in heaven saying Allelujah salvation ●nd glory and honour and power ●nto the Lord our God for true and righteous are thy judgements for he hath judged the great Whore And the 24. Elders and the 4. Beast● fell down and worshipped God that sat● on the Throne saying Allelujah c. And I heard as it were the voyce of a great multitude and as the Voice of many waters and mighty thundrings saying Allelujah For the Lord God Omnipotent reigneth Let us be glad and rejoyce and give honour to him c. And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword that with it he should smite the Nations and he shall rule them with a rod of Iron ●nd he treadeth the winepresse of the wrath of God and he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written King of Kings and Lord of Lords c. And I saw the dead small and great stand before GOD and the Books we●e opened c. and they were judged every man according to their works And then it will be mo●t clear That the Names of God Lord Lord of Lords c. not the name Jesus not once mentioned in all these Texts is the name above every name and the bowing subjection of all Angels Men Spirits great and small good and bad before the Throne or Judgement seat of Jesus Christ and his judging of them the bowing of every knee and their confessions of him to be LORD and GOD in the glory of God the Father the very same intended in Phil. 2.9 10 11. Isay 45.23 and Rom. 14 4ly Take notice of these his Hyperbolical expressions which may prove very dangerous if not warily unde●stood and quali●ied with some grains of charity and candor Here is super up●n super Another super to his Name no l●sse then his pe●Pe●son That above all persons not excepti●g the Persons of God the Father and God the holy Ghost And this a●ove all names whatsoever not excepting the Names of God God the Father 〈◊〉 HOLY SPIRIT no more then the other great and glo●ious names of Christ Son of God Lord c. whose Persons and Names too are Co-aequal with the Person and Name of I●sus Therefore to be equally adored bowed to and honoured by all O●thodox Christians whereas these his expressions seconded with constant bowing● only at and to the Name Person of Jesus not of God the F●ther or God the Holy Ghost imply yea make an inaequality in the very Trinity it self and advance the pe●Pe●son Name of Jesus the Sonne above the Person N●me of God the Father and Person Name of God the holy Spirit whose Deity the Eunomians Macedonians Samosetanus Photinus and their followers d●nyed of old and Biddolph with others amongst us of late as well as the Arrians denyed the Deity of Jesus Christ. 5ly His words That God requires this service of the knee and that to his Sonnes name Jesus Ye shall not displease him by it fe●r not c. They that will do no honour he me●●s by this bowing at or to it every time it is recited when time of need comes shall have no comfort by it Have mind on him that is named and do his Name the Hono●r and spare not are such dangerous bold assertion● as never fell from any Protestant Divines mouth or pen before his and that in a Royal Court-Auditory and cannot be justified by any of his Admi●ers nor excused as learned Bishop Morton confessed to me when he had well considered them and Archbishop Abbot too from the censure of Name-worship Will-worship nor distinguished from the Papists worshipping of his Name Cross Body in the Eucharist if compared with his former passages 6ly Observe this other collateral passage of his Not to do it at his Name Nay at the holy Mysteries thems●lves not to do It. Which may have a harsh construction agreeable to the Doctrin and practise of the Chu●ch of Rome Even to bow at kneel to adore the very Body of Christ in the consecrated Host and Elements themselves as the Papists do which he hath left behind him in his Chu●ch as the Bishop writes he

neglect of thy Sonne yea verily thou art exceeding angry with those who insult over and refuse to reverence him I would therefore have thee believe me that God the Governour of this World doth in like manner detest those who adore not and speak blasphemies against his only Sonne and that he hates them as ungratefull towards their Saviour and Patron Whose purpose when the Emperour had by this means understood admiring both his Deeds and his Words he forthwith made a Law prohibiting the Assemblies of the Arrian Heretickes And may we not then justly fear by parity of reason that God the Father and God the Holy Ghost will be as much offended with those who bow and do Divine adoration and reverence only to Iesus the Son when ever this Name of his is mentioned and yet do no reverence of bowing or adoration to the Father or Holy Spirit when their Names are mentioned and Persons represented to their mindes together with or before or after the Name Person of Jesus in the self-same Chapter Sermon Collect Prayer Creed or Verse No doubt they will Mr. Fox records of our Archbishop Cranmer Bishop Ridley and Bishop Latymer that when they were brought before the Popes Cardinal Pool● and Queen Maries Commissioners at Oxford sitting joyntly together upon them to convince and condemn them of Heresie they all severally of set purpose put off their Caps and bowed their Bodies and Knees with great reverence and humility to the Queens Commissioners but would neither put off their Caps nor bow their Bodies or Knees to the Popes and Cardinals Commissioners nor shew the least reverence to them because they had abjured and renounced the Popes authority Whereat those proud Commissioners w●re so incensed as taking it for an high contumacy and affront to the Popes Cardinals Persons and Authorities whom they then represented that they not only severally and openly reprehended them for the contempt and expostulated the affront with them but caused their Caps to be pulled off by their Officers These Commissioners putting off their Caps and making reverence when ever the Popes name was read or mentioned without yielding any such reverence at all to the Name of God Christ or Queen Mary And may we not from thence discern and conjecture how much God the Father and God the Holy Ghost are dishonoured slighted contemned yea in some sort un-godded and how far Jesus the Sonne his Name Person are advanced adored above their Names Person when the one of them is so frequently honoured adored worshipped with bowed Heads Knees Bodies and veiled Caps by most and the other two reverenced by none at all as if they were mere Cyphers yea not so worthy honour worship as the Names Persons of Iesus of the Pope or of the Virgin Mary at or to whose Names or Persons they only use to bow their Knees Heads and do obeysance in an extraordinary manner and excesse of veneration whenever they hear their sound Let all Christians then especially those Bishops Clergy-men who are most zealous for this Duty or Ceremony take special care that under the specious pretexts of uncommanded reverence and devotion they relapse not by degrees to Popish Superstition and Idolatry in giving as much or more honour to the very Name of Iesus first and next by the like reason to his Cros● Image Picture Representative breaden body yea to Mary the Mother of Iesus by Bowings Adorations Holy daies Howers Primers Rosasaries Offices Prayers Collects Oblations Indulgencies than to the Person and Deity of Iesus or to the Names Person of God the Father and God the Holy Ghost as they do in the Church of Rome from whose grosse Superstitious Idolatrous detestable Enormities excessive superfluous unnecessary Ceremonies unknown to Christ himself his Apostles and the Primitive Churches Fathers Christians and from all approaches to them Good Lord deliver us Amen and Amen FINIS ERRATA PRay correct these Pres●-errors and omissions p. 15. l. 11. read send p. 24. l. 38. fignant r. signall p. 41. l. 14. r. thing l. 33. r denying it p. 44. l. 4. body p. 55. l. 21. et r. ut p 57. l 8. his r. this p. 58. l. 37 38 r. therefore brief●y p. 59. l. 34. bow his r. bowing this l. 35. at their r. at Emanuel l 36. dele which p. 62. l. 19. more r. much p. 66. l. 31. nor r. not p. 67. l. 9. r. ended they sate down purposely to receive the Lords Supper SITTING p. 68. l. 16. r.
