Vindication, Fol. 37, 38.

That the words of Institution in the Sacrament, The Body of Christ which was broken, and the Blood of Christ shed for you, is not of any divine Institution, but humane onely, though warrantably practised.

Inference.

Whence we may infer, That he, in affirming the Institu∣tion to be onely humane, and yet Warrantable, is not onely an impeaching of their worship of God in the highest and most spiritual Admirations of Will-worship, and humane invention, and want of conformity to the Rule or Word, but even a flat contradiction in a Scripture sense, because he addes, Yet war∣rantably practised; as if an unlawfull way of worship, as all will-worship is, might be lawfully practised; which is contrary to these Scriptures, Matth. 15. 3, 9. Isai. 29. 13, 14. Gal. 3. 15. John 10. 4▪ 5. Matth. 6. 24. Tit. 1. 14. Revel. 14. 9, 10.
