Againe this also is especially to be mynded, that we •re then sayd to keepe the same use and end, not when we imploy the same thing or action: but when we use •hem as under the act of the same rule, as in the same way, as in the like virtuall respect unto the same end: I often mention that particle of similitude as, because •hough the ordinances of man, cannot have the same virtue as Gods have, nor can attaine the same end of honouring of God as his doe, yet if we take them, and use them as such, they are false worship to us, so abusing ⟨p. 46⟩of inventions, as the use of Gods owne ordinances, are true worship: So that where both these are, the same meanes in a proper religious use, to attaine the end properly religious, there is Divine worship. And this thus opened, now comes to be confirmed.
Where the essential causes are of Divine worship, there is Divine worship. Where there is the same use and end, properly religious; there be the essential causes of Divine worship. Ergo, there is Divine worship.
