Observation IX.
That those that are the greatest Deceivers of the people, do often pretend most Zeal for the Peoples Liberty: So we see here in Ko∣rah and his Company, St. Peter saith, 2 Pet. 2. 3. of false Teachers, that through Covetousness by feigned Words they make Merchandize of those whom they seduce. Doth not the Scrip∣ture among divers kinds of Merchandize in the Ware-house of the Whore of Babylon, num∣ber the Souls of men? Rev. 18. 19. Hereticks for Gain by feigned Words do sell the Souls of Men to the Devil; by fair pretences they draw Men into damnable Heresies, &c. Pernitious Practises, and into the way of Destruction.
