Sacrament is than as much to say as an holy sign. And the sacraments which Christ ordained preach Gods word unto us and therefore justify and minister the sprite to them that believe / as Paul through preaching the Gospel was a minister of righteousness and of the sprite unto all that believed his preaching. Dome ceremonies are no sacraments / but superstitiousness. Christs sacraments preach the faith of Christ as his apostles did and thereby justify. Antichrists dome ceremonies preach not the faith that is in Christ / as his Apostles our ⟨p. Cxiij⟩misshapes and cardinals do not. But as Antichrists bishops are ordained to kill who so ever preach the true faith of Christ so are his ceremonies ordained to quench the faith which Christs sacraments preach.1 And hereby mayest thou know the difference between Christs signs or sacraments and Antichrists signs or ceremonies / that Christs signs speak & antichrists be dome
