may_v be_v convince_v by_o reason_n that_o he_o ought_v to_o choose_v a_o guide_n and_o not_o to_o trust_v his_o reason_n in_o all_o thing_n i_o ready_o grant_v it_o for_o this_o be_v to_o use_v our_o

most_o to_o his_o purpose_n the_o next_o instance_n i_o give_v of_o this_o rule_n be_v the_o second_o commandment_n thou_o shall_v not_o make_v to_o thyself_o any_o grave_a image_n and_o there_o the_o

be_v no_o reason_n against_o a_o express_a law_n but_o a_o exception_n to_o the_o law_n itself_o as_o of_o no_o force_n i_o do_v affirm_v that_o if_o the_o second_o commandment_n be_v still_o in_o

and_o be_v not_o this_o what_o i_o say_v do_v i_o deny_v that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n pay_v any_o other_o worship_n to_o god_n but_o sacrifice_n but_o i_o say_v and_o so_o say_v our_o jesuit_n that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o external_a act_n of_o worship_n so_o peculiar_a to_o god_n that_o it_o can_v be_v give_v to_o no_o other_o be_v but_o only_a sacrifice_n and_o therefore_o since_o the_o devil_n do_v not_o demand_v of_o christ_n to_o sacrifice_v to_o he_o he_o do_v not_o demand_v of_o he_o that_o degree_n of_o worship_n which_o alone_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n think_v

and_o therefore_o give_v to_o creature_n thou_o shall_v worship_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n and_o he_o only_o shall_v thou_o serve_v i_o add_v that_o to_o prevent_v the_o worship_n of_o inferior_a

only_o in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n that_o in_o he_o they_o may_v find_v acceptance_n and_o this_o he_o call_v a_o misrepresentation_n and_o i_o will_v venture_v to_o be_v a_o misrepresenter_n for_o once_o and_o charge_v they_o with_o it_o for_o if_o they_o pray_v to_o god_n in_o the_o name_n and_o merit_n of_o saint_n and_o the_o bless_a virgin_n if_o they_o pray_v to_o they_o to_o

his_o sake_n i_o sum_v up_o this_o argument_n thus_o now_o this_o be_v so_o apparent_o one_o end_n of_o christ_n come_v into_o the_o world_n to_o suppress_v the_o idolatry_n of_o creature-worship_n and_o to_o confine_v all_o religious_a worship_n to_o one_o supreme_a be_v in_o opposition_n to_o the_o many_o god_n of_o the_o heathen_n and_o to_o teach_v we_o to_o make_v our_o application_n to_o

which_o make_v it_o improbable_a and_o incongruous_a to_o the_o utmost_a degree_n that_o christ_n shall_v permit_v the_o worship_n of_o saint_n and_o the_o virgin_n mary_n as_o it_o be_v practise_v

of_o that_o idolatrous_a worship_n which_o the_o heathen_n pay_v to_o their_o god_n that_o there_o be_v no_o visible_a distinction_n between_o they_o and_o if_o christ_n intend_v to_o root_v out_o

christ_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v no_o place_n now_o for_o any_o expiatory_a rite_n and_o ceremony_n 2._o the_o gospel_n make_v no_o difference_n between_o legal_a cleanness_n and_o

without_o any_o external_a act_n of_o worship_n i_o never_o say_v much_o less_o do_v i_o assign_v it_o as_o my_o reason_n here_o against_o a_o mere_a external_a
worship_n that_o god_n must_v be_v worship_v as_o a_o mere_a spirit_n but_o that_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o christian_a religion_n will_v not_o admit_v of_o such_o a_o external_a worship_n and_o yet_o if_o he_o can_v tell_v i_o how_o this_o stipulation_n or_o covenant_n can_v be_v make_v betwixt_o god_n and_o we_o by_o interior_a grace_n without_o some_o visible_a covenant_a rite_n how_o the_o christian_a church_n which_o be_v a_o visible_a society_n distinguish_v from_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o world_n by_o a_o visible_a covenant_n can_v be_v thus_o visible_o incorporate_v by_o

that_o interior_a covenant_n but_o we_o speak_v of_o a_o external_a visible_a covenant_n which_o require_v visible_a pledge_n and_o seal_n require_v a_o visible_a sensible_a mark_n and_o our_o actual_a communion_n with_o christ_n another_o all_o the_o communication_n of_o god_n grace_n to_o we_o all_o our_o return_n of_o worship_n and_o adoration_n will_v equal_o admit_v of_o sensible_a

the_o same_o necessity_n of_o external_a wash_n and_o purification_n distinction_n of_o meat_n etc._n etc._n now_o the_o gospel_n have_v put_v a_o end_n to_o all_o legal_a uncleanness_n as_o there_o

which_o be_v such_o a_o contradiction_n to_o the_o whole_a design_n of_o the_o gospel_n as_o there_o be_v of_o the_o gospel-sacrament_n to_o receive_v we_o into_o covenant_n and_o to_o convey_v the_o

these_o be_v very_o different_a thing_n from_o external_a religious_a rite_n and_o if_o he_o know_v no_o reason_n why_o the_o conveyance_n of_o grace_n shall_v rather_o be_v confine_v to_o the_o two_o

let_v any_o man_n tell_v i_o what_o more_o be_v necessary_a to_o a_o new_a creature_n than_o to_o be_v bear_v and_o to_o be_v nourish_v by_o fresh_a supply_n of_o grace_n till_o it_o grow_v up_o to_o
