The censure of Serapion byshop of Antioche toutching the Phrygian heresie.
THis Serapion remembred the workes of Apollinarius, where he confuted the sayed he∣resie, who then is sayd to haue succeeded Maximinus in the byshopricke of Antioche. he maketh mention of him in a peculier Epistle vnto Caricus Ponticus where also the sayed* 1.1 heresie is confuted thus: I vvoulde haue you to vnderstande this also, hovve that the opera∣tion of this deceatefull purpose called the nevve prophecy, is impugned, and counted for de∣testable, and cursed doctrine of all the Churches throughout Christendome. I haue sent vnto you the learned vvrytinges of Claudius Apollinarius that holy byshope of Hierapolis in Asia. In this Epistle of Serapion there are subscriptions of many byshops, one subscribeth thus: I Au∣relius Cyrenius martyr vvishe you health. An other thus: Aelius Publius Iulius byshop of De∣beltum a citie of Thracia, as sure as the Lorde liueth in heauen, vvhen as holy Zotas of An∣chia vvoulde haue cast out the deuell vvhich spake in Priscilla, the dissemblinge hypocrites vvoulde not permitt it. And many other byshops gaue the same censure, and subscribed with theyr owne handes to the sayed Epistle. the affayres then went after this forte.
