A94728	Anthropolatria; or The sinne of glorying in men, especially in eminent ministers of the gospel. Wherein is set forth the nature and the causes of this sinne, as also the many pernicious effects which at all times this sinne hath produced, and with which the church of Christ is still infected. With some serious disswasives from this sinne, and directions to prevent the infection thereof. A discourse usefull, and in these times very seasonable. / By John Tombes, B.D. and preacher of Gods word at the Temple.	Tombes, John, 1603?-1676.	1645 (1645)	Wing T1792; Thomason E282_13; ESTC R200049	17,625	23
