in the Gospell is an acceptation of the satisfaction and obedience of christ for the sinnes of al them that beléeue 18. The Iesuites teache that the mercie of GOD in Christ in the which consisteth our saluation is this that God promised vnto them that doe good workes to witte such as fulfill the lawe life euerlasting Censur Colon. Canis Andrad Concil Trident But the Catholikes say that the mercie of God wherin consisteth the saluation of all the elect people is this that the heauenly father promised fréely to all them that beléeue in Christ and also giueth fréely remission of sinnes righteousnesse and life euerlasting not because of their obedience towardes the lawe but onely for Christes sake our Lorde our Sauiour and Mediatour 19. The Iesuites holde that there is a twofolde iustification a first and a second The first iustification saye they is in that Christ deserued by his death that such as belieued in him should be endued and adorned with loue and other vertues The seconde say they is in that they by the merites of Christ hauing receiued these new ornamentes and vertues man I say deserueth a greater fuller and more ample righteousnesse reconciliation adoption and in the end euerlasting life Censur Colon. Andrad The Catholikes hold that there is but one way or manner of obtaining euerlasting saluation to witte the frâ—e remission of sinne and the imputation of the righteousnesse of Christ apprehended by fayth giuen vs not because of our workes but for the merites of Christ 20. The Iesuites holde that our workes are necessarily required for the first iustification and merit the amplification of the secoÌ„d Censur Colon. Canis Andrad Ortho. explic The councell of Trent layeth downe that they are causes of iustification and also do merit c And accurseth them that holde the contrary Seâ—s 6. Canon 24. 32. The Catholikâ— beleeue that life euerlasting is the gift of God fréely giuen and promised to them that beleeue in Christ our sauiour The woorkes of the regenerate are not causes of our saluation but witnesses of the grace receiued by Christ neyther do they merit ought for when we haue done all that lyeth in vs wée are commaunded to confesse our selues to bée vnprofitable seruantes 21. The Iesuites holde that the workes which are before iustification are meritorious and accepted of God Censur Colon. Canis Andrad Orthodox explic lib. 3. Concil Trident. â—ess 6. canon 7. The Catholikes affirme that the workes which are done before regeneration and iustification are sinfull For whatsoeuer saith S. Paule is not of fayth is sinne And they are no more acceptable vnto God then the workes of Philosophers Heathens Turkes and Infidels who denying God are in the state of damnation 22. The Iesuites hold that no man is iustified by faith onely without works Censur Colon. Canis Andrad And the counsell of Trent accurseth them that holde the contrary Sess 6. Can. 9 Sess 13. Canon 11. The Catholikes holde with the wordes of our Sauiour in the Gospell where it is saide Onely beleeue and with the opinion of Paule saying We suppose that a man is iustified by faith without the workes of the law and other places of holy scripture tending to the confirmation thereof that man is iustified by fayth alone without workes 23. The Iesuites hold that there are seuen sacraments to wit the Lordes supper baptisme confirmation penaunce extreame â—â—â—tion order and matrimonie All that holde the contrary are often accursed by the counsell of Trent Sess 7. Can. 1. Sess 7. can 1. Sess 14. The catholikes do holde that there are but only two sacraments so properly to bee called that is baptisme and the Lordes supper sufficiently established by Gods word and that al the rest doe differ farre from the proper nature of Sacraments 34. The Iesuites do hold real presence in the sacrament they maintaine transubstantiation they minister the sacrament vnder one kinde barring the laitie of the cuppe they wil haue the sacrament adored and the remaines laide vp and reserued all contrary vnto the catholike fayth and warrant of Gods word 25. The Iesuites doe holde that man can make satisfaction vnto God for his sinnes although the offence be infinite and the satisfaction finite or terminable Censur Colon. Canis concil Trident. The catholikes doe affirme that a man although he be regenerate can make no acceptable satisfaction vnto God neither present ought before him to appease the wrath of the father but only his sonne Christ and his merites 26. The Iesuites holde that the Saintes are to bée inuocated to the end they may make intercession for vs. Againe they thinke that the Lordes prayer may bée sayde vnto them Againe they confesse although that the holy scripture teach no where the inuocation of Saints yet say they notwithstanding it is to bee belâ—ued receiued and retained Censur Colon. Canis Andrad Orthod explic Concil Trident. Sess 25. The Catholikes assirme that there is none to bée called vppon in prayer but God alone and that it is blasphemy to say Our Father which art in heauen c. Unto the Saints and that there is no doctrine to be receiued but that which is contained in the old and new testament 27. The Iesuites teach that the Saintes are so bee honoured and serued that their reliques and images are to be woorshipped as they write Cultu Latrâ—ae with the honour and woorship due vnto God him selfe and that the image of Christ is as much to be honoured as the bookes of the Gospell of Iesus Christ they â—hat hold not she saâ—â— with them are by the Popâ— accursed Censur Colon.

The Catholikes teach that God alone is to bee honoured and serued with 〈◊〉 â—â—â—â—â— and seruice that the woorshipping of reliques and images is idelatrie and contrary to the expresse woorde of God for hee will not haue his people taught by his wing of pictures but by the lately preâ—ching of the woorde of God 28.

I shalbe saued Turne vs againe O God of hostes saieth Dauid cause thy face to shine and we shalbe saued Here vpon commeth it to passe also that the comfortable answere is made I will giue them saieth the Lord an heart to knowe mee that I am the Lorde and they shalbe my people Againe I will put my lawe in their in warde partes and write it in their heartes In an other place I will giue them one heart and I will put a newe spirite within their bowelles and I will take the stonie heart out of their bowelles and I wil giue them an heart of fleshe that they may walke in my statutes and keepe my iudgementes and execute them This is the treasure which S. Paule saieth we haue in earthen vesselles that the excellencie of that power might be of God and not of vs. For hee worketh all thinges after the counsell of his owne will Againe It is God which worketh saieth Paule to the Philippians both the will and the deede euen of his good pleasure hée beginneth it and performeth it We are not sufficient of our selues to thinke any thing as of our selues but our sufficiencie is of God which hath made vs meete to be pertakers of the inheritaunce of the Saintes in light Then haue wée not frée will to that which is good being by nature the children of wrath clogged with the corruption of originall sinne and concupiscence so that we cannot doe as saint Paule saieth whatsoeuer we would 10. The Iesuites doctrine 10. The Iesuites holde that the first motions of concupiscence are without the gilte of sinne Censur Colon. When as in very déede the motions of the saide luste in that wee are by nature the children of wrath doe condemne vs if Gods mercie and the merits of Christes passion stoode vs not in stéede 11. The Iesuites holde that there are many other more grieuous offences and more damnable then those that repugne the lawe of GOD and yet the lawe condemneth them not namely traditions mans lawes and the preceptes of the Church the which Canisius reckones to be fiue in number 1. See thou celebrate the set feaste dayes of the church 2. See thou heare reuerently vppon the holy dayes Masse and Maâ—â—â—ns 3.

The Iesuites saye that faith is a most firme assâ—t or beléeuing not only of the things opened in holy scripture but also of those things which without scripture are deliuered by tradition Censur Colon. Canisiâ—de fide â—imbol Cap. 22. Andâ—â—d Orthodox â—xplic 〈…〉 Trident. Faith saith the Catholikes is not onely a knowledge by the which the Christian firmely holdeth all that is made manyfeste in Gods woorde but also a sure confidence kindled by the holy Ghoste through the Gospell in the hearte by meane whereof hée resteth in GOD perswading himselfe for certaine that remission of sin euerlasting righteousnesse and eternall life is giuen not onely to others but also to himselfe and that freely of the great mercie of God by the merites of Jesus Christ 13. The Iesuiâ—es say The iust in that hee liueth by faith hath not that in Christe but of his workes Againe That faith iustifieth shée hath not that â—oâ—me or efficacie of Christe whome shée apprehendeth and possesseth but of our loue Againe Faith doeth not therfore iustice because shee apprehendeth Christe who is our righteousnesse but workes are so necessary and stand in so great a steade that they giue vnto faith her life Cens Colon. Canisi Andradius The Catholikes holde that they must liue by fayth as the holy Ghost hath deliuered in writing And now he liueth no more as Paule wryteth but Christ lyueth in him and the life that the iust now liueth in the flesh hée liueth through the fayth of the sonne of God who loued him and gaue himselfe for him So that fayth hath no more her being or life of our loue or workes then the roote hath moisture ministred vnto â—â— by fruite growing vpon the trée 14. The Iesuites write the proper saluation of some certaine priuate man is not to bée referred vnto fayth For the priuate iustification of men is vncertaine and much more the eternall saluation of them How then in these being vncertaine shall fayth assure her selfe Fayth in particulars is vncertain hope ofteÌ„times is frustrate Censur Colon. Canis Andrad Orthodox explic lib. The counsell of Trent will also haue no perticular man to assure himself of his saluation and holdeth them accursed that doe so Sess 6. cap. 12. canon 13 14 15. But the Catholikes hold that most comfortable doctrine which Abraham Moses Iob Dauid Paule and all the elect people of God the spirite testifying vnto them whose children they are whiche assured themselues of theyr saluation not hanging with the câ—llierâ— fayth vpon the â—léenelesse câ—â—te of the Romish Church neither onely generally belieuing that some shal be saued but perticulerly also knowing that the election vâ—cation iustification and saluation of euery perticuler of the elect of God is sure and certaine 15. The Iesuites say that Justification is none other then the séeking or searching of righteousnes and to speak philosophically a motion vnto righteousnes Censur Colon Canis Andradius The Catholiks hold iustification of a man before God or christian righteousnes to be a remission of sinne and an imputation of the righteousnesse of Christ and a frée donation of lyfe euerlasting not for any worthinesse or workes of ours but onely for Christes sake and the same apprehended by fayth 16. The Iesuites doe hold that the reconciliation which is called iustification commeth to passe by meane of loue which is the gift of the holy Ghost shed in the heartes of the faythfull And truely say they great is the force of loue yea and of such a force that it maketh vs the sonnes of God Censur Colon. Canisius Catechist The Catholikes say that the elect are not reconciled vnto God but by the â—â—riteâ— of Christes passion And that loue goeth not before reconciliation as the cause but followeth after as the effect â—â—â—â—â—fying our iustification 17. The Iesuites affirme that the iustice of God reuealed in the Gospell is a power in God which rendreth vnto euery one according vnto their worthines Censur Colon Canis Andrad The Catholikes holde that the iustice of God shewed
