call_v all_o these_o filthy_a and_o stink_a dregs_n which_o have_v infect_v the_o church_n tradition_n observation_n and_o ordinance_n of_o the_o apostle_n but_o you_o know_v full_a well_o that_o they_o agree_v aswell_o with_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n &_o his_o apostle_n as_o darkness_n with_o light_n and_o falsehood_n with_o truth_n for_o where_o can_v they_o find_v that_o jesus_n christ_n or_o his_o apostle_n do_v ordain_v the_o mass_n together_o with_o the_o furniture_n &_o trappings_n thereof_o which_o be_v full_a of_o foolish_a toy_n where_o can_v they_o find_v that_o filth_n wherewith_o they_o have_v corrupt_v holy_a baptism_n as_o cream_n salt_n spittle_n conjure_a water_n light_n and_o such_o like_a thing_n where_o can_v they_o find_v the_o baptise_v of_o bell_n holy_a water_n procession_n prayer_n for_o the_o dead_a and_o a_o thousand_o such_o babble_n toy_n &_o trifle_n as_o be_v too_o long_o to_o rehearse_v but_o chief_o a_o infinite_a number_n of_o error_n contain_v in_o the_o mass_n and_o in_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o their_o book_n of_o ceremony_n of_o which_o sort_n be_v that_o execrable_a idolatry_n which_o they_o commit_v in_o worship_v a_o morsel_n of_o bread_n the_o invocation_n and_o intercession_n of_o saint_n the_o adore_v and_o worship_v of_o the_o image_n and_o relic_n of_o dead_a saint_n the_o fire_n of_o purgatory_n the_o pope_n pardon_n &_o indulgence_n and_o such_o like_a impiety_n condemn_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o like_a séelie_o soul_n you_o have_v miserable_o bind_v yourselves_o to_o receive_v and_o approve_v all_o these_o thing_n o_o eternal_a god_n be_v it_o possible_a that_o you_o shall_v have_v be_v so_o undiscrete_a be_v it_o possible_a that_o you_o shall_v continue_v so_o blockish_a as_o to_o have_v no_o remorse_n of_o conscience_n in_o you_o but_o let_v we_o proceed_v you_o have_v be_v teach_v out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v for_o the_o continual_a use_n of_o his_o church_n institute_v only_o two_o sacrament_n to_o wit_n baptism_n and_o the_o holy_a supper_n to_o represent_v unto_o we_o the_o holy_a mystery_n of_o our_o salvation_n that_o be_v to_o say_v our_o regeneration_n and_o the_o spiritual_a life_n which_o we_o draw_v from_o jesus_n christ_n our_o head_n in_o as_o much_o as_o we_o be_v most_o strict_o unite_v and_o couple_v together_o with_o he_o and_o to_o seal_v up_o in_o our_o heart_n the_o promise_n of_o salvation_n and_o eternal_a life_n which_o be_v there_o make_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o lord_n you_o know_v moreover_o that_o the_o church_n of_o god_n must_v content_v itself_o with_o these_o two_o not_o only_o because_o they_o be_v sufficient_a to_o represent_v unto_o we_o all_o the_o benefit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o to_o assure_v we_o of_o his_o grace_n &_o favour_n but_o also_o because_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o mortal_a man_n no_o not_o for_o the_o very_a angel_n to_o ordain_v any_o sacrament_n or_o to_o establish_v any_o thing_n in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n forasmuch_o as_o this_o right_n belong_v to_o god_n alone_o notwtstanding_n mark_v what_o you_o confess_v by_o the_o four_o article_n of_o this_o tyrannous_a abjuration_n you_o acknowledge_v that_o there_o be_v 7._o sacrament_n in_o the_o law_n of_o grace_n institute_v by_o jesus_n christ_n which_o be_v most_o false_a we_o confess_v indeed_o that_o that_o which_o they_o call_v confirmation_n which_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o receve_n of_o such_o as_o be_v instruct_v &_o catechise_v in_o the_o church_n catechism_n into_o the_o church_n that_o be_v to_o say_v of_o those_o which_o have_v be_v catechise_v and_o instruct_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n be_v receive_v into_o the_o fellowship_n of_o the_o faithful_a with_o prayer_n to_o recommend_v they_o to_o god_n be_v a_o holy_a thing_n which_o have_v be_v practise_v in_o the_o primitive_a church_n even_o in_o the_o apostle_n time_n also_o we_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o repentance_n which_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o acknowledge_v of_o our_o fault_n &_o the_o mislike_v of_o the_o same_o &_o the_o amendment_n of_o our_o life_n be_v a_o good_a &_o wholesome_a thing_n ordain_v &_o command_v of_o god_n we_o confess_v also_o that_o that_o which_o they_o call_v the_o order_n of_o priesthood_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n which_o be_v use_v in_o the_o church_n in_o old_a time_n &_o which_o be_v use_v at_o this_o day_n in_o many_o reform_a church_n when_o pastor_n elder_n deacon_n &_o other_o ecclesiastical_a person_n be_v to_o be_v admit_v unto_o the_o public_a charge_n of_o the_o church_n we_o confess_v i_o say_v that_o this_o be_v a_o laudable_a &_o holy_a ceremony_n ordain_v &_o practise_v by_o the_o apostle_n as_o for_o marriage_n we_o know_v also_o that_o it_o be_v a_o holy_a institution_n of_o the_o lord_n &_o that_o the_o custom_n of_o blessing_n the_o same_o in_o the_o church_n be_v christian_n we_o grant_v i_o say_v that_o all_o these_o thing_n be_v good_a and_o holy_a &_o be_v ground_v upon_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o we_o deny_v they_o to_o be_v sacrament_n first_o of_o all_o because_o jesus_n christ_n have_v not_o institute_v they_o to_o be_v such_o and_o secondlie_o because_o they_o have_v not_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v require_v necessary_o in_o true_a sacrament_n for_o than_o they_o must_v have_v be_v ordain_v by_o jesus_n christ_n to_o continue_v in_o the_o church_n until_o the_o consummation_n of_o the_o world_n and_o for_o the_o use_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n in_o general_a and_o of_o every_o member_n thereof_o in_o particular_a furthermore_o there_o shall_v have_v be_v visible_a sign_n to_o represent_v the_o invisible_a grace_n of_o god_n and_o the_o promise_n of_o salvation_n and_o eternal_a life_n which_o thing_n we_o see_v to_o be_v in_o baptism_n and_o in_o the_o holy_a supper_n only_o as_o for_o extreme_a unction_n as_o they_o call_v it_o we_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o the_o oil_n wherewith_o the_o apostle_n do_v anoint_v the_o sick_a be_v a_o outward_a sign_n which_o do_v represent_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n even_o in_o that_o time_n of_o the_o say_a apostle_n who_o have_v the_o gift_n of_o heal_v but_o this_o sacrament_n last_v but_o for_o a_o time_n and_o have_v a_o end_n together_o with_o the_o gift_n of_o heal_v &_o work_v miracle_n we_o conclude_v then_o that_o there_o be_v but_o two_o sacrament_n in_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o the_o other_o five_o be_v invent_v by_o man_n and_o yet_o you_o confess_v that_o all_o that_o be_v institute_v by_o christ_n jesus_n &_o that_o which_o be_v worse_o you_o avouch_v a_o horrible_a blasphemy_n when_o you_o grant_v that_o the_o sacrament_n confer_v grace_n for_o by_o this_o you_o attribute_v not_o only_o to_o the_o true_a sacrament_n but_o also_o to_o man_n invention_n that_o which_o belong_v to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n who_o alone_o confer_v the_o grace_n signify_v by_o they_o and_o that_o to_o the_o true_a faithful_a alone_o and_o the_o sacrament_n as_o also_o the_o word_n be_v only_a instrument_n which_o he_o use_v to_o this_o end_n so_o that_o we_o receive_v by_o they_o nothing_o appertain_v to_o our_o salvation_n unless_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n work_v inward_o in_o we_o and_o unless_o we_o have_v a_o true_a and_o lively_a faith_n you_o have_v also_o learned_a by_o the_o same_o word_n of_o god_n that_o the_o say_v sacrament_n must_v be_v minister_v with_o the_o same_o purity_n &_o simplicity_n wherewith_o they_o be_v institute_v by_o our_o sovereign_a doctor_n &_o master_n jesus_n christ_n 22._o deut_n 4._o &_o 12._o pro._n 30._o apo._n 22._o and_o that_o it_o be_v a_o intolerable_a boldness_n to_o add_v any_o thing_n thereto_o and_o detestable_a sacrilege_n to_o take_v any_o thing_n therfrom_o how_o little_a soever_o it_o be_v forasmuch_o as_o this_o be_v to_o seek_v to_o be_v more_o wise_a than_o he_o who_o be_v the_o eternal_a wisdom_n of_o the_o father_n and_o yet_o nevertheless_o you_o approve_v by_o the_o first_o article_n all_o those_o ceremony_n which_o these_o man_n have_v annex_v to_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n which_o they_o have_v wicked_o and_o ungod_o profane_v and_o pollute_v also_o you_o allow_v all_o those_o thing_n which_o they_o use_v in_o the_o administration_n thereof_o which_o they_o themselves_o have_v invent_v and_o ordain_v how_o foolish_a superstitious_a and_o wicked_a soever_o they_o be_v as_o you_o know_v that_o the_o more_fw-it part_n of_o they_o do_v rather_o resemble_v juggler_n trick_n and_o toy_n or_o the_o superstitious_a &_o profane_a fashion_n of_o the_o heathen_a than_o the_o simplicity_n &_o gravity_n of_o christian_n moreover_o you_o approve_v by_o the_o same_o article_n two_o horrible_a sacrilege_n which_o amongst_o other_o they_o commit_v
