Notable Texts of the scriptures which declare of what virtue strength and holiness the pixed or boxed God is: with also/ what faith/ hope and confidence is to be put in him. Baruch. vi. If he may putrefy or be consumed of worms/ mould, rust beast or fire: he is an Idol and no God. THat same spirit (dear brethren) which moved S. Paul to reprove the citizens of Athens for their idolatry/ Act. Act. xiii. c. xvij c. Hath also moved us to warn you by the scriptures of the same offence specially in worshipping that unknown God on the altar/ which thing you do ignorantly/ and therefore we certify & assure you by this present That God which made the world/ and all that therein is, 3. Reg. 8. d 2. Par. 6. c Esay. lxv. Act. xii. f. Heb. ix. c. dwelleth not in temples made with hands: neither is he daily offered upon your conjured altars. Heb. ix. c. For than should he oft have suffered since the world began. But that did he once for all, when he offered up himself. Heb. ix. e. And with that only sacrifice hath he made perfect for ever all them that are sanctified. Heb. seven. d. Heb. x. c. But now to our purose/ seeing/ Christ is not in your church made with hands (as these foresaid scriptures will witness unto you) how can you avoid idolatry in giving that worship to an earthly thing which is only due unto God? is not bread an earthly thing, and hath not the hands of sinners made and fashioned it for your purpose? why do ye than worship it? And if you say it is no substance of bread. But the likeness thereof after the consecration (which is a blasphemous lie) what win you by that? Exo. xx. a. Deut. v. a for God said/ you shall not worship the likeness of any thing in heaven or in earth. But here peradventure some wilier than his fellows/ will say, we neither worship the substance of bread nor the likeness of bread, but we worship Chryst contained in the bread. To answer this viper's whelp●, we say that the natural body of Christ is neither contained in the bread/ in the church nor in the hole earth as we have proved before/ neither willeth he to be worshipped in bread nor wine/ but in spirit & truth. john. 4. e. Neither can ye worship christ where he is not, but where he is/ that is in heaven. For that same natural body which Christ took of the virgin marry which suffxed death/ which rose again which ascended into heaven sitteth now on the right hand of his father, and if you will not believe us herein, search these scriptures following. Psal x. c. xiii. b. Eccle. v. a. job. xvi. d Esay. lxiiij. a. lxvi. a. john. iij. e. seven. e. viii. c. xii. xiii. d. xiv. a. xvi. c. xvij. b. xx d. i. Tes. iiij d. Heb. i a. ix e. x. c. Mar. xiii. xiv c. xvi. b. ma●. xiv c. xxvi. f. luc xxiv. e. i Tim. ij. a. vi. c. Act. i. b. phil. iij. d. Collo. iij. a. Rom. viii Ephe. i d. iiij. b. Might not these if you were men and not beasts/ persuade you to the truth & cause your conscience to confess the abominable idolatry with earnest repentance for the same. Luc. 24. c. Oh ye fools and slow of heart to believe the scriptures. If we say the truth why do ye not believe us? john. viii Act. xiii. b Oh ye children of the devil will you never cease to pervert the straight ways of the lord? john 12 a will you still say you have Chryst/ & he saith you have me not? Will you God/ like as they do with other idols/ By this might you know saith jeremy that it is no god. Baru. 6. c. Yea/ do not rats & mice devour & eat your God/ and time consume & putrefy your god/ but what you do with him after few men may know. Shall the natural body of Christ which was the only price of our redemption be eaten of rats or mice? Or may time consume the high priest which remaineth for ever. Oh you priests of bell/ be ones ashamed of your lying/ for truly if daniel may once speak freely with the king/ he will bewray your false juggling. Heb. vi. That it may be so and that shortly we pray. Let no man judge us that we may any thing herein derogate the holy Supper of Christ/ for that we must highly esteem as the perfect memorial of our redemption and most necessary food of our souls. i. corin. x. Eating and drinking therein the very body and blood of christ even as our fathers did. Esai 43. c But we only warn & teach you that there should be no strange God among you. And that you should turn from these vain things unto the living God. Act. 14. c. To whom alone be all honour and glory. Amen. Sent from verbo dei whose author is in celo. Flee from worshipping of idols. i. cor. x b. Believe the scriptures. Marc. i b. And require on more than is commanded you. Luc. iij. c. Finis.
