I shall at present instance in three known Doctrines of the Church of Rome 1. The Doctrine of the Popes Supremacy over all Princes Kings and Emperours of the Earth This pernicious Doctrine of the Church of Rome is taught by the Roman-Priests (c) Blasius Bagnus de S. Romanae Ecclesiae dignitatibus Tract 7. pag. 83 84.85 Blasius Bagnus a Prior general tells us That the Popes Empire is over all the World and that HE is the only Vicar of God who hath Supreme Power and Rule over all Kings and Princes of the Earth (d) Sic. Simanca Enchir. Judicum Tit. 67. §. 12. p. 349. Antwerp Anno 1573. Jacobus Simanca a Roman-Bishop whose Book is Printed cum publico Privilegio and Commended by the Censor librorum the learned Ben.

Sa Aphor. Confess Verbo Clericus pag. 41. Col. 1599. That if a Clergyman Rebel against his King it is no Treason because saith he Clergy-Men are not the Kings Subjects These false Prophets have taught and maintained this false Doctrine 2. The Doctrine of Justification by works which are say they meritorious and satisfactory I need not spend Time and wast Paper in proving that the Church of Rome and all her Clergy own and teach this Doctrine (f) Conc.

Concil Trident. lib. 6. therefore I will briefly prove that it is false Doctrine whereby it will appear that the Roman-Priests are false Teachers Deceivers and the false Prophet The Apostle Paul gives it in holy writ as the Conclusion of all Christs Apostles Rom. 3.28 Therefore we conclude saith he that a man is justified by Faith without the Deeds of the Law And Gal. 2.16 Knowing that a Man is not justified by the works of the Law but by the Faith of Jesus Christ For by the works of the Law shall no flesh be justified It may be objected that the Apostle James saith expresly That by works a man is Justified and not by Faith only Jam. 2.24 and Instanceth in Abraham ver 21. Was not Abraham our Father justified by works I Answer That a mans Person is justified by Faith before God and works justifie his Faith before Men And this seems to be the Mind of both those Apostles For St. Paul saith expresly Rom. 4.2 If Abraham were justified by works he hath whereof to glory but not before God And St. James speaks of shewing our Faith by our works before Men vers 18. I will shew thee my Faith by my Works And so Peter Martyr and other of the Ancients used to Distinguish Faith saith he justifies our Persons and good Works justifie our Faith 3. The Doctrine of the false worship of God which consists of many particular Parts that the Church of Rome Practiseth and the Roman Priests teach all which are asserted confirmed and established by the Laws Canons and general Councils of the Church of Rome And the Romish Clergy by teaching for Doctrines the Commandments of Men touching the Worship of God (g) Joan.
