He addeth further, Christs Body walked upon the waters: vanished out of sight: ascended through the Clouds: and entered through the doors being fast shut, &c. These were the reasons, that deceived the Old Manichees. I marvel, that M. Harding, being, as he saith, lately become a professor of the Catholic Faith, would found the whole substances of his Doctrine upon Heretics. Touching the special trust, that the Manichees reposed in this argument, 1S. Hierome writeth thus: Cum dicit Manichaeus, & similis Manichaeorum, Dominus non Resurrexit in Corporis Veritate, &, ut scias, non fuisse verum Corpus, clausis ingressus est ostijs, nos quid dicemus? Domine libera animam meam a labijs iniquis, & a lingua dolosa. When the Manichee, or any other like the Manichees, saith, The Lord arose not again in the Trueth of his Body, and for proof thereof, saith thus, He entered in, when the doors were shut, what then shall we say? Even thus, O Lord, deliver my soul from wicked lips, and deceitful tongues. Here we see, M. Harding is driven to seek upon old condemned Heretics, and to borrow their weapons: wherefore it shall be good to follow S. Hieromes counsel, and to say, O Lord deliver my soul from wicked lips, and deceitful tongues.
He addeth further, Christes Bodie walkte vpon the waters: vanisshed out of sight: ascended through the Cloudes: and entred through the doores beinge fast shutte, &c. These were the reasons, that deceiued the Olde Manichees. I maruel, that M. Hardinge, beinge, as he saithe, lately become a professour of the Catholique Faithe, woulde founde the whole substances of his Doctrine vpon Heretiques. Touching the special trust, that the Manichees reposed in this argumente, 1S. Hierome writeth thus: Cum dicit Manichaeus, & similis Manichaeorum, Dominus non Resurrexit in Corporis Veritate, &, vt scias, non fuisse verum Corpus, clausis ingressus est ostijs, nos quid dicemus? Domine libera animam meam a labijs iniquis, & a lingua dolosa. When the Manichee, or any other like the Manichees, saith, The Lorde arose not againe in the Trueth of his Bodie, and for proufe thereof, saith thus, He entred in, when the doores were shutte, what then shal wee say? Euen thus, O Lorde, deliuer my soule from wicked lippes, and deceiteful tongues. Here wée sée, M. Hardinge is driuen to séeke vpon olde condemned Heretiques, and to borow their weapons: wherefore it shalbe good to folow S. Hieromes counsel, and to say, O Lorde deliuer my soule from wicked lippes, and deceiteful tongues.
