3. Concerning Zanchie. His name is by mistaking, much abused. For howsoever he distinguisheth worship into that which he calleth essential, and such thing as are annexed unto it, yet under these annexions, he compriseth such things as God hath commanded, ⟨p. 156⟩all which the Def. and Rej. call essential worship. His words are these: Things annexed to worship are holy ordinances which among the Jews were very many, as their temples, Altars, persons, garments, vessels, times &c. And afterward Ministers, Elders, Deacons, Lords Day &c are the holy things of the Christian Church. 1So that Zanchie calleth those annexed, which these men call essential worship: what an unhappy witness is he, that doeth not agree with them of whom he is produced: But to take all that the Rejoinder would have, this is the sum: If human Ceremonies be some part of external worship, and yet not of that worship which is essential, as Zanchie showeth, then (in a large sense) Ceremonies applied to religious actions, may be called parts of Gods worship, though not essential.
