Luke. 7. 30.
The text.
But the pharisies and the lawyers ∴ despised the counsell of
God against themselues, being not baptized of him.
The note.
As they that contemned Iohns baptisme, despised Gods counsell and
wisedome; so much more they which make no account of the sacraments
of the church, despise Gods counsell and ordinance touching their salua∣tion
to their owne damnation.
The answer.
Your note is true. But you vnder the color and name of sacra∣ments,
do obtrude to the people that whereof God was neuer
author, but which resteth, and is founded vpon your owne coun∣sell
and wisedome, which we despise, bicause we know it to be
enimitie against God.
