To be a note of Antichristianism is in no manner of thing (saith one) for to this end nothing is created of God, but wholie dependeth vpon our consent to Antichristianisme, and the profession thereof: VVhich consent and profession being changed into a consent and profession of true christian religion, there connot anie note of Antichristianisme cleaue vnto the thinges themselues. The bread and wine which Pagans offred to Diuels (as Iustin Martyr and Tertullian remember) were no hinderance why we should not vse the like ceremonie. For which as the commaundement is expresse, so is it thus far in generall, that al thinges be done for comelinesse, preseruation of order, &c. Where it is farder obiected.
