Vindication, Fol. 37.

The Brethrens Reason, That in the Sacrament, there is a neerer application of the Word, and Promises in particular, of the right and interest in them, more then in the Word preached, which the Vindication saith, is just like the late Archbishops of Can∣terburies doctrine for bowing at the Altar, as Gods great place of presence.

Inference.

Whence we may infer, That the Vindication doth very un∣charitably compare Doctrines and Principles, viz. his Bre∣threns with those of Prelacy, and his Brethren with the grossest of Prelats; and their Principles, of spiritual Administration, and Communion with those of a most Idolatrous, and external nature, which is contrary to these Scriptures, Jam. 4. 12. Matth. 7. 1, 3, &c. 1 Pet. 3. 8.
