And 'tis Folly to believe that God gave greater Power or Priviledges in these Cases to the Jewish, than to the Christian Teachers; for whereas among the Jews, the Prince and the Priest were joyn'd together in the Maintenance of Gods True Religion, so wheresoever the Prince and People profess Christianity, their Work is the same, the Prince defends, and with the Priest declares the true Catholick Faith. And upon this account it is, that the Burthen that lyes upon the Teachers of the Church is the greater, where the Preacher delivers apparent Falsehoods and the People are seduced by him, the Fault is divided between the Instructor and the Instructed, it being his work to preach the Truth sincerely, and the Peoples to search the Scriptures daily to see whether these things be so; |
