As

So

that

As
both
obscure
the
glorie
of
God
by

inuocation

frustrate
the
merits
of
our
Sauior

&c.
&
deface
the
holie
Sacraments

vain
ceremonies
of
Antichrist
;
&
hinder
the
preaching
of
Gods
word
by
ouer
m●nie
&
tedious
traditions
;
and
keep
the
people
of
God
in
damnable
ignorance
,
by
preferring
the
ordinances
of
men
before
th'
institution
of
God
,
and
leaue
that
vndone
which
God
hath
commanded
to
be

Yet
such
is
the
Satanical
boldnes
of
that
Antichristian
Synagogue
,
that
as
theie
wil
delude
men
with
the
reliques
of
Saincts
,
which
are
not
so
:
So
likewise
theie
teach
the
people
,
which
is
most
abominable
,
to
giue
diuine
adoration
&
honor
vnto
them
.
Hence
-
Saith

,
and
that
in

.
In

do
I
worship
,
and

also
of

,
as
of

for

both
to

to

to

&c.

Some
do
praie
vnto

whose

theie
had
stolen
.
O
Benedict
after
God
our
onlie
hope
,
leaue
vs
not
orphans
,
who
art
come
hether
not
through
our
merits
,
but
for

soules
.
-
Haue
some
published
,
That
the

of

,
and
specialie
the
Reliques
of
the

Martyrs
,
are
with
al
synceritie
to
be
honoured
as
the
members
of

,
&c.
If
anie
denie
this
sentence
,
he
is
to
be
thought
not

Christian
,
but
an
Eunomian
,

.
-
The

hath
decreed

that

are

affirme
howe

is
not
to

Of

Wherebie
we
signifie
our selues
to
be
aduersaries
-
To
all
such
as
to
their
power
do
seeke
th'
abolishing
of
publique
preaching
,
as
do
subtile
Papists
,
and
worldlie
men
.
-
To
al
such
as
publishe
how
the
worde
is
not

,

onelie
by

maie
,

must

and
that
not
priuatlie

though
theie

called

The
doctrine
of

H.

As
publiquelie
to
preach
before
men
are
sent
,
is
à
gre●uous
fault
:
so
not
to
preach
being
sent
,
is
as
great
a
sinne
.
Hereunto
●eare
witnes
-
In
the
Scripture
-
Iesus
Christ
whose
wordes
are
theis
,
Surelie
I
must
also
preach
the
kingdome
of
God
to
other
cities
:
for
therefore
am
I
sent

Some

Contrarie
herevnto
the
Papists
erroneouslie
do
hold
,
that
the
Sacraments
are
not
seales
,
but
causes
of
-
Grace
-
Iustification
.
Out
of
which
,
as
one
error

another
ariseth
,
-
That
theie
which

of
the
Sacraments
,
are

That
so
manie
as
are
not
incorporated
into
the
visible
Church
by
the
Sacraments
,
at
the
least
of
Baptisme
,
are
assuredlie
condemned
.

The
Sacraments
be
not
meerlie
tokens
either
of
our
dutie
towards
God
and

;
or
of
God

Howbeit
this
faith

is
not

tied
vnto

For

Without
the

manie
haue

,
who

God
,
&
are
no

before

-
Which

-
Which
were

in

,
&
yet
by
some
extremitie
could
not
receiue
the
seale
of
the
couenant
.
-
Women
,
who
before

vnder
the
law
for
manie
yeeres
were
partakers
of
no
Sacrament
,
and
neuer
of

Sacrament

teach

-

haue
faith

that

no

knoledge

The

are
not
ordinarie
means
to

A

-
According

,
as

Touching
Confirmation
the
sentence
&
iudgement
-
Of
the
Church
of
God
is
-
That
rightlie
vsed
,
as
it
was
in
the
primitiue
Church
,
it
is
no
sacrament
,
but
à
part
of
Christian
discipline
profitable
for
the
whole
Church
of
God
.
For
th'
ancient
Confirmation
was
nothing
els
,
than
an
examination
of
such
,
as
in
their
infancie
had
receiued
the
Sacrament
of
Baptisme
,
and
were
then
,
being
of
good
discretion
,
able
to
yeeld
an
account
of
their
beleefe
,
and
to
testifie
with
their
owne
mouthes
that
which
their
suerties
in
their
names
had
promised
at
their
Baptisme
.
Which
confession
being
made
,
and
à
promise
of
perseuerance
in
the
Faith
by
them
giuen
,
the
Bishop
by
sound
doctrine
,
graue
aduice
,
and
godlie
exhortation
,
confirmed
them
in
that
good
profession
;
and
laieng
his
hands
vpon
them
,
praied
for
th'
increase
of
God
his
gifts
,
and
graces
in
their
minds
.
-
That
Popish
Confirmation
is
no
Sacrament
of

Church

The
Sacrament
of
Repentance
,
which
is

(

that

As
of
Confirmation
,
so
of
Poenā●e
,
th'
aduersaries
do
publish
foure
things
to
be
noted
,
and
none
of
them
trulie
grounded
vpon
the
word
of
God
-
First
the
matter
,
which
of
the
Papists
some
do
saie
is
-
Th'
actions
of
the
poenitent
person
,
that
is
to
saie
-
Th'
absolution
by
the
Priest
-
Sufficient
contrition
of
hart
.
-
Perfect
Confession
.
-
Of
al
sinnes
,
and
that
in
particular
.
-
Of
al
circumstances
,
as
of
place
,
time
,
&c
-
Satisfactions
in
works
;
which
maketh
à
ful
amends
for
al
offences
.
-
Secondlie
the
forme
,
which
-
In
the
Priest
is
the
words
of
absolution
,
which
the
priest
vttereth
ouer
the
sinner
.
-
In
the
person
poenitent
is
-
His
kneeling
down
at
the
priests
feet
-
His
making
the
sign
of
the
crosse
vpon
his
breast
.
-
His
saieng
benedicite
to
his
ghost
lie
father
.
The
priest
beareth
the
person
of
God
,
&
is
the
lawful
iudge
ouer
the
poenitent
and
may
-
Absolue
from
the
gilt
of
sinne
.
-
Inflict
à
punishment
,
according
to
th'
offence
.
-
Thirdly
,
the
Minister
,
who
-
Ordinarilie
is
the
Curat
of
euerie
parish
.
-
Extraordinarilie
,
and
in
the
time
of
extreeme
necessitie
,
or
by
licence
,
anie
Priest
Yet
some
sinnes
are
so
grecuous
that
non
may
absolue
them
,
but
-
The
Pope
,
o●
his
Legat
as
-
Burning
of
Churches
,
Violent
striking
of
à
Priest
.
Counter
fe●ting
the
pops
Buls
.
-
The
bishop
or
his
poenitentiarie
,
as
-
Incest
.
Breaking
of
vowes
.
Robbers
of
churchs
Haeretikes
.
Adulterers
,
&c.
-
Fourthlie
,
th'
affect
.
Hereby
they
say
à
poenitent
sinner
is
From
al
sin
,
as
when
he
was
newly
baptized
.
-
Purged
-
Absolued
.
-
Made
cleane
-
Enriched
with
spiritual
gifts
and
graces
.
The
consideration
here
of
hath
moued
the
churches
reformed
to
condemne
this
Antichristan
Sacrament
of
paenance

hauing
no

The
blasphemies
are
outragious
,
and
th'
error
manie
,
&
monstrous
comprised
in
this
doctrine
of
popish
poenance
.
For
-
Whereas
they
saie
,
the
Sacrament
of
poenance
was
instituted
by
christ
himself
,
it
is
most
false
.
For
,
as
they
teach
it
,
neither
the
matter
,
no●
the
form
,
no●
the
Priest
,
no●
th'
effect
thereof
can
bee
drawne
from
the
word
of
God
.
-
They
say
Poenance
is
a
Sacrament
,
yet
can
they
shew
no
element
it
hath
to
make
it
à
Scacrament
.
-
Popish
Contrition
is
against
the
truth
.
For
none
is
sufficientlie
contrite
for
his
sinnes
.
-
To
confes
al
sinnes
,
and
that
one
after
another
,
with
al
circumstances
,
vnto
à
priest
,
as
it
is
vnpossible
,
so
is
it
erroneous
,
and
neuer
enioined
by
God
,
nor
practised
by
anie
of
God
his
Saints
,
that
we
can
find
in
the
holie
Scripture
.
-
That
anie
man
can
satisfie
for
his
sinnes
it
is
blasphemous
,
&
against
the
merits
of
Christ
,
yet
do
the
Papists
teach
it
;
and
besides
,
that
one
man
maie
satisfie
for
another
.
-
An
vntruth
is
it
,
that
any
priest
Bishop
,
or
Pope
,
hath
power
to
forgiue
sinnes
,
or
can
enioine
anic
punishment
that
can
make
an
amends
to
God
for
the
least
offence
.
-
If
Poenance
purge
men
,
and
make
them
cleane
from
al
sin
,
then
is
there
à
time
when
men
in
this
life
be
perfect
,
which
tendeth
greatlie
to
th'
error
of
the
Catharans
,
Donatists
,
and
Pelagians
.
-
That
Baptisme
is
à
token
that
original
sinne
onelie
,
and
not
actual
sins
besides
,
which
th'
elect
seruants
of
God
shal
commit
,
are
pardoned
,
it
is
against
the
word
of
God
.
-
The
doctrine
that
they
which
willinglie
depart
out
of
this
worlde
with-out
shrife
,
are
damned
,
which
thing
the
Papists
do
hold
,
is
à
damnable
doctrine
,
and
to
be
escheweda
.

The
church

If
anie

,
as

in

Th'

In

Antichristian
doctrine
manie

do
concur

For
(
to
omit
in
silence
how
nothing
which
the
Papists
deliuer
concerning
extreme
vnction
can
bee
found
in
the
hohe
Scriptures
,
as
neither
the
matter
nor
the
maner
,
nor
the
Minister
,
nor
anie
institution
at
al
from
Christ
;
nor
anie

that
either
al
which
are
sicke
,
or
in
al
ages
to
the

end
,
some
sicke
persons
should
be
annoiled

-
In
respect
of
the
matter
,
the
Papists
make
of
à
grosse
element
,
à
spiritual
ointment
,
whereas
there
is
none
ointment
spiritual
,
but
the
holie
Ghost
.
-
In
respect
of
the
forme
-
The
onelie
propitiator
,
and
Mediator
betweene
God
and
man
Christ
Iesus
is
blasph●med
,
and
the
merit
and
power
of
his
death
ascribed
to
greasie
oile
.
-
Christ
is
not
acknoledged
for
the
onelie
Sauiour
of
mankind
,
and
physition
of
our
soules
,
but
other
physitions

receiued
besides

-
In
respect
of
the
Minister
-
It
appeareth
that
man
hath
power
to
forgiue
sinnes
,
which
belongeth
vnto
God
alone
.
-
Other
men
,
yea

,
besides
the
ordinarie
Ministers
of

word
▪
maie
be
ministers
of
the
Sacraments
.
-
In
respect
of
th'
effect
we
maie
gather
,
that
-
Al
sinnes
be
not
mortal
.
-
Christ
hath
not
cleansed
such
as
be
his
from
al
their

In

True
it
is
that
euerie

which

receiueth

that
is
,
Forgiuing
of

or

For
we
do
find
that
-
Some
do
receiue
the
Sacraments
,
and
the
things
signified
by

-
Of

deliuer
that

of

giue
