of_o the_o business_n in_o this_o manner_n as_o follow_v that_o to_o build_v or_o to_o use_v steeple-house_n which_o you_o call_v church_n in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n be_v altogether_o unlawful_a much_o more_o to_o beautify_v or_o adorn_v they_o and_o to_o give_v privilege_n land_n or_o possessien_n to_o they_o or_o to_o the_o person_n of_o your_o churchman_n but_o that_o we_o be_v all_o priest_n equal_o and_o that_o your_o canonical_a hour_n and_o prayer_n in_o those_o church_n be_v utter_o unlawful_a too_o i_o prove_v by_o scripture_n thus_o 1._o first_o we_o find_v that_o stephen_n in_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o his_o sermon_n and_o in_o the_o word_n forego_v his_o death_n express_o declare_v against_o the_o vanity_n of_o all_o temple_n or_o church_n call_v they_o what_o you_o please_v 50._o act_n 7.48_o 49_o 50._o and_o quote_v the_o prophet_n for_o it_o howbeit_o the_o most_o high_a dwell_v not_o in_o temple_n make_v with_o hand_n as_o say_v the_o prophet_n heaven_n be_v my_o throne_n and_o earth_n be_v my_o footstool_n what_o house_n will_v you_o build_v i_o say_v the_o lord_n or_o what_o be_v the_o place_n of_o my_o rest_n have_v not_o my_o hand_n make_v all_o these_o thing_n etc._n etc._n from_o hence_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o god_n delight_v not_o in_o any_o of_o your_o steeple-house_n again_o we_o find_v paul_n as_o plain_o declaim_v against_o the_o idolatry_n of_o all_o steeple-house_n assure_v the_o athenian_n 25._o act_n 17.24_o 25._o that_o god_n that_o make_v the_o world_n and_o all_o thing_n therein_o see_v that_o he_o be_v lord_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n dwell_v not_o in_o temple_n make_v with_o hand_n neither_o be_v he_o worship_v with_o man_n hand_n etc._n etc._n thus_o you_o see_v how_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o christianity_n there_o be_v not_o only_a no_o steeple-house_n but_o by_o scripture_n express_o forbid_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v any_o 3._o the_o apostle_n paul_n bid_v we_o again_o 2._o 1_o tim._n 2._o to_o

not_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n himself_o prophesy_v the_o destruction_n of_o that_o idol_n of_o the_o jew_n their_o temple_n to_o say_v 24.2_o matt_n 24.2_o very_o very_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o there_o shall_v not_o be_v leave_v here_o one_o stone_n upon_o another_o that_o shall_v not_o be_v throw_v down_o you_o may_v see_v then_o what_o pleasure_n he_o take_v in_o that_o place_n which_o be_v the_o glorious_a of_o the_o whole_a world_n what_o then_o will_v become_v of_o your_o pitiful_a temple_n and_o steeple-house_n 5_o our_o saviour_n yet_o more_o plain_o show_v his_o distaste_n of_o that_o kind_n of_o worship_n when_o he_o tell_v the_o woman_n of_o samaria_n in_o s._n john_n gospel_n 4.21.23_o john_n 4.21.23_o woman_n believe_v i_o the_o hour_n come_v when_o you_o shall_v neither_o in_o this_o mountain_n nor_o yet_o at_o jerusalem_n worship_v the_o father_n etc._n etc._n but_o the_o hour_n come_v and_o now_o be_v when_o the_o true_a worshipper_n shall_v worship_v the_o father_n in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n for_o the_o father_n seek_v such_o to_o worship_v he_o here_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o he_o will_v not_o have_v his_o worship_n confine_v to_o place_n no_o not_o to_o his_o holy_a temple_n 6_o then_o do_v not_o the_o prophet_n jeremy_n heat_n down_o the_o fond_a confidence_n that_o the_o jew_n have_v in_o their_o temple_n when_o he_o bid_v they_o not_o to_o trust_v in_o lie_v word_n say_v 4.7_o jer._n 4.7_o the_o temple_n of_o the_o lord_n the_o temple_n of_o the_o lord_n the_o temple_n of_o the_o lord_n it_o be_v plain_a he_o say_v that_o to_o call_v that_o the_o temple_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v to_o give_v lie_v word_n 7_o be_v not_o god_n in_o every_o place_n and_o can_v there_o be_v any_o one_o place_n show_v where_o he_o be_v proper_o present_a but_o he_o be_v always_o ready_a to_o hear_v sinner_n every_o where_o as_o be_v frequent_o say_v in_o scripture_n what_o need_n have_v we_o then_o of_o your_o church_n or_o
that_o we_o be_v all_o the_o foot_n when_o we_o know_v that_o there_o be_v and_o must_v be_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o member_n themselves_o wherefore_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o body_n may_v consist_v with_o the_o difference_n of_o member_n then_o as_o to_o that_o other_o text_n out_o of_o the_o roman_n we_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o all_o christian_n though_o mere_o lay-mem_a may_v offer_v spiritual_a oblation_n and_o so_o may_v be_v mystical_a priest_n erect_v in_o their_o heart_n a_o altar_n of_o their_o affection_n to_o god_n but_o it_o do_v not_o at_o follow_v from_o thence_o that_o therefore_o there_o be_v not_o nor_o aught_o to_o be_v external_a and_o hierarchical_a priest_n to_o the_o eleven_o we_o say_v that_o our_o saviour_n in_o that_o gospel_n you_o urge_v sind_v not_o fault_n with_o pray_v but_o pray_v as_o the_o hepocrite_n do_v who_o with_o his_o word_n pray_v to_o god_n not_o with_o his_o deed_n which_o kind_n of_o pray_v shut_v the_o gate_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n against_o they_o then_o as_o to_o a_o necessity_n which_o you_o say_v our_o prayer_n must_v impose_v upon_o god_n we_o do_v absolute_o deny_v any_o such_o thing_n but_o yet_o we_o know_v that_o god_n be_v please_v to_o express_v himself_o as_o if_o he_o be_v necessitate_v by_o the_o importunity_n of_o faithful_a prayer_n as_o he_o say_v to_o moses_n let_v i_o alone_o that_o my_o fury_n may_v wax_v hot_a as_o if_o he_o be_v hinder_v from_o his_o purpose_n by_o moses_n his_o prayer_n he_o request_v he_o to_o let_v he_o alove_o and_o as_o to_o your_o inference_n that_o if_o prayer_n be_v prevalent_a with_o god_n than_o good_a work_n a_o necessary_a we_o do_v absolute_o deny_v it_o for_o we_o be_v to_o do_v the_o one_o and_o not_o toleave_v the_o other_o undo_v for_o by_o fast_v and_o alm_n give_v etc._n etc._n prayer_n be_v carry_v up_o to_o heaven_n as_o with_o angel_n wing_n to_o the_o twelve_o to_o what_o you_o urge_v out_o of_o s._n matthew_n and_o the_o prophet_n malachy_n we_o acknowl_v that_o god_n foreknow_v our_o want_n before_o we_o ask_v he_o but_o yet_o we_o confess_v his_o power_n in_o pray_v to_o he_o and_o beseech_v he_o as_o he_o be_v all_o powerful_a to_o help_v we_o we_o ask_v therefore_o only_o that_o which_o god_n have_v order_v we_o to_o ask_v for_o and_o have_v promise_v to_o give_v to_o our_o prayer_n and_o god_n will_v be_v ask_v before_o he_o give_v lest_o we_o shall_v do_v that_o which_o most_o in_o the_o world_n do_v vilify_v his_o proffer_a grace_n neither_o be_v god_n to_o be_v think_v to_o be_v change_v by_o our_o prayer_n that_o be_v in_o his_o essence_n but_o the_o effect_n of_o thing_n be_v many_o time_n change_v by_o holy_a prayer_n as_o that_o before_o by_o moses_n you_o mistake_v therefore_o if_o you_o think_v that_o our_o prayer_n be_v ordain_v to_o change_v the_o divine_a disposition_n but_o that_o we_o may_v obtain_v by_o our_o prayer_n what_o his_o divine_a goodness_n have_v dispose_v for_o we_o before_o the_o world_n be_v to_o the_o thirteen_o and_o last_o we_o say_v that_o our_o saviour_n forbid_v not_o much_o speak_n in_o prayer_n simple_o but_o as_o the_o heathen_a do_v vain_a repetition_n and_o babble_v in_o prayer_n be_v forbid_v not_o prolixity_n &_o to_o continue_v long_o in_o prayer_n it_o be_v the_o superfluity_n of_o word_n that_o be_v offensive_a to_o god_n therefore_o the_o old_a father_n prayer_n be_v very_o short_a 1._o luke_n 22.1_o sam._n 1._o but_o frequent_a christ_n himself_o pray_v long_o and_o amn_v pray_v long_o and_o multiply_v prayer_n 2.6_o luke_n 2.6_o nay_o our_o saviour_n be_v a_o whole_a night_n in_o prayer_n as_o the_o scripture_n testify_v then_o that_o canonical_a hour_n be_v not_o command_v in_o holy_a writ_n i_o grant_v but_o they_o be_v sufficient_o insinuate_v and_o the_o church_n have_v always_o learn_v they_o from_o its_o holy_a master_n the_o apostle_n and_o we_o ought_v to_o obey_v those_o that_o be_v set_v over_o we_o in_o the_o lord_n than_o last_o of_o all_o 11._o heb._n 11._o what_o can_v be_v more_o edify_v to_o christian_n than_o those_o collect_v of_o holy_a prayer_n and_o homily_n make_v by_o the_o holy_a father_n of_o the_o church_n the_o legand_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o agony_n of_o those_o invincible_a martyr_n who_o have_v seal_v our_o chrsstion_n faith_n with_o their_o blood_n if_o they_o be_v well_o and_o faithful_o write_v so_o now_o give_v we_o leave_v to_o reply_v a_o little_a upon_o you_o that_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o build_v use_v and_o adorn_v church_n and_o to_o give_v land_n and_o possession_n to_o they_o and_o to_o the_o person_n that_o officiate_v in_o they_o and_o that_o we_o be_v not_o all_o equal_o priest_n and_o that_o our_o canonical_a hour_n and_o prayersure_v

46.2_o deut._n 46.2_o thou_o shall_v therefore_o sacrifice_v the_o passover_n unto_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n of_o thy_o flock_n and_o of_o thy_o herd_n in_o the_o place_n which_o the_o lord_n thy_o
