the habite of Christ cannot be knowne because of their varietie One saith vnder this garment another vnder that that he is Christs souldier when as they all seeke not the things that are Christs but their owne Uers. 20. Praying in the holy Ghost 24. Note The Apostle hauing described the qualities and conditions of corrupt teachers Liplabour praier nowe he turneth himselfe to describe the true members of the Church of Christ whome by this note as one he would haue knowne they doe pray in the holy Ghost that is with feeling and vnderstanding for such are the praiers of the spirit this difference our Sauiour Christ maketh betweene true and false worshippers Iohn 4. 22. Yee worship that ye knowe not we worship what we knowe for saluation is of the Iewes But the members of the Romane Church knowe not what they worship nor what they pray speaking in an vnknowne tongue and therefore wanting the true and right vse of praier they are not the true Church of Christ for in the Church of God there is the true inuocation of the name of God and there are the true worshippers of God in spirit and trueth Ioh. 4. 24. but liplaboure is no true worship of God such as are all praiers made without vnderstanding in an vnknowne tongue as Ambrose saith vpon these wordes of S. Paul My minde is without fruite 1. Cor. 14. 14. Quem fructum habere potest qui ignorat quae loquitur What fruite or profit can he haue that knoweth not what he saith Uers. 23. Hate the garment spotted of the flesh This is another note of the true 25. Note religion that it retaineth not carnall rites ceremonies which are here vnderstood by the fleshly garment such as the Apostle speaketh against Coloss. 2. 2. such traditiōs as consisted in touching tasting hādling which things perish with the vse But such is the popish profession altogether adorned with the vesture of the flesh for most of their carnall and ceremonious rites and vsages they haue borrowed partly from the Iewes partly from the Gentiles From the Gentiles they haue learned their adoration of images praier to the dead multiplicitie of saints purgatorie setting vp of waxe candles burning of tapers with such other infinit rites the original whereof is deriued from the heathē as Moresin de origin papat a learned scottish writer hath lately shewed in a treatise onely of that argument From the Iewes they haue their palme salt oyle holy water obseruation of daies difference of meats with such other therefore we can not iudge that to be sound religion which vseth such traditions which are after the cōmandements of men Col. 2. 22. and so I conclude this point with Augustine De aqua frumento vino oleo in seruitute veteris populi multa celebrari imperatasunt quae nobis tantum intelligēda traduntur Ang. de cele●●at pasch Many things concerning corne wine oyle were commanded to be obserued in the seruitude of the olde lawe which are onely so be vnderstood of vs. Thus haue I by these 25. notes gathered out of this epistle consisting of 25. verses declared howe the true religion and Church from the false may be discerned which also may serue as a caueat aduertisement to the Reader concerning a certaine seditious popish pamphlet lately dispersed called a quarterne of reasons wherin the libeller by his 25. reasons would impugne the credite of our Church and religion which booke as I vnderstand is very sufficiently answered by a studious young man and learned diuine and is readie for the presse Thus I end exhorting the reader according to S. Pauls rule to trie all things and hold that is best And so I conclude with that saying of Augustine Excipite verba contradicentium respuenda non Tract 9. in ●●am transglutienda visceribus danda facite inde quod fecit Dominus quando illi obtulerunt amarum potum gustauit respuit it a vos legite abiicite Receiue ye the words of gainsayers to refuse them not to swallow them keepe them in your bowels but doe with them as our Lord with the bitter potion which they offered to him he tasted and refused so doe ye● read their errours and reiect them Praise honour glorie and power be vnto him that sitteth vpon the throne and vnto the lambe for euermore Reuel 5. 13.
