II footing, and whereupon we mind to rear up certain superstructions: we hold, that not only we ought to obey the particular precepts of the Word of God, but that also we are bound to imitate Christ, and the commendable example of his Apostles, in all things wherein it is not evident, they had special reasons moving them thereto, which do not concern us. Which ground as it hath been of a long time holden and confirmed by them of our side, so never could, nor ever shall, our Opposites subvert it.
