Errors, & adversaries vnto this truth.

Sundry adversaries hath this truth, and

First the Papists, who teach that none are to thinke, or per∣swade themselues, that they are of the number of the Predesti∣nate vnto saluation, but to be euer doubtfull thereof a 1.1.

The said Papists deliuer, that so many persons, as are not marked with the signe of the crosse vpon their forehead, are damned, and reprobate b 1.2; also, that they which will be saued, must be Franciscans c 1.3, at leastwise become members of the Church of Rome d 1.4.

Secondly, the Antonomies, which thinke the outward cal∣ling by the word (though they haue not the inward calling by the Spirit, and be destitute of good workes) a sufficient argu∣ment of their election vnto life e 1.5.

Page 78

Thirdly, the Puritanes, who among other assurances giuen them from the Lord of their saluations, make their aduancing of the Presbyteriall kingdome (by the putting downe of Bi∣shops, Chancellours, &c.) a testimonie that they shall haue part in that glorie, which shall be reuealed hereafter f 1.6.

Fourthly, the Schwenfeldians, and all such as depending vp∣on immediate and diuine reuelations, condemne & contemne the ordinarie calling of God, by the ministerie of his word.

Lastly, the Russians g 1.7, Catabaptists, and Familie of Loue l 1.8, who beleeue that themselues onely, and none besides, shall be saued.
