Early English Printed Sermons


A decad of caveats to the people of England of general use in all times, but most seasonable in these, as having a tendency to the satisfying such as are not content with the present government as it is by law establish'd, an aptitude to the setling the minds of such as are but seekers and erraticks in religion an aim at the uniting of our Protestant-dissenters in church and state : whereby the worst of all conspiracies lately rais'd against both, may be the greatest blessing, which could have happen'd to either of them : to which is added an appendix in order to the conviction of those three enemies to the deity, the atheist, the infidel and the setter up of science to the prejudice of religion / by Thomas Pierce ...

In-Text When a Protestant resolves to espouse a Schism, a Separation from the most perfect of Protestant Churches in the World, He must accuse her either of Popery, or of Papistical Inclinations, for fear of being found out by all, to drive a Trade of Animosities, either for Revenge, or for filthy Lucre; or for fear of being known to be Satan's chief Journy-man, in being passionately amorous of breeding Hatreds, and a Lover of Schism as it is Schism. Neither Christ nor his Apostles were used otherwise or worse than the Church of England, whose Accusations were adapted to their Enemies Ends, which were onely to make them odious, and thorowly fitted for Destruction; as far from Truth, or Probability, as Truth can possibly be from Falshood. Nor could it sure be more impossible, that Christ himself, blessed for ever, should be a Conjurer, or a Glutton, (who yet was accused of being Both, ) than that His Spouse the Church of England should be Popishly affected, whose first Reformers were put to Death for resisting Popery, When a Protestant resolves to espouse a Schism, a Separation from the most perfect of Protestant Churches in the World, He must accuse her either of Popery, or of Papistical Inclinations, for Fear of being found out by all, to drive a Trade of Animosities, either for Revenge, or for filthy Lucre; or for Fear of being known to be Satan's chief Journeyman, in being passionately Amoros of breeding Hatreds, and a Lover of Schism as it is Schism.
