Thou bids Furnish and fortifie your selves with spirituall weapons out of Gods Armory against your speciall corruptions every morning Dost thou not here set up the Scriptures to be Gods Armory and spiritual Weapons Where are they called so in the Bible Thou would seem to be religious but how short thou comes of brideling the tongue thy Verbosity in thy Book and thy Tautologies in thy Pulpit exercises clearly manifest And therefore is thy Religion vain James 1.26 Let the tender spirits feare with me herein I must deal with him a little in his own Weapon In the 41. page thou playes the Critick with the Greek word 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 1 John 3.9 where John sayes He that 's born of God 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 doth not commit sin that is sayes Thou He does not work sin as a man on his Trade c.
