2. As the sole word of God, made living creatures of those that were not living, before, so saith the Rejoinder the sole institution of God, makes that action to be true worship, which was before no real worship at all, though used to the same end, and in the same manner. But 1. the creating word of that which was not before in being, differs so much from that ratifying word which presupposeth the being of the thing ratified, that here is not so much as a show of proportion. 2. This is a direct contradiction to that which the Rejoinder teacheth, pag. 125. If any thing be done to the honouring of God immediately and of it self, which God requires not so to be done, it is proper immediate external false worship. For hence it immediately followeth, that nothing can be done, to the same end with true proper worship, but it must be proper worship, either true, if it be required of God, or false, if not so required. 3. The place of Sacrifice, before God had determined the particular place, though used to the same end, and in the same manner, was not in it self any part ⟨p. 170⟩of real worship to God: and yet after Gods determination, it was.

For there was special mysteriall signification to be observed in the one, which was not in the other.

If any thinge be doen to the honoring of God immediatly and of it self, which God requires not so to be doen, it is proper immediate externall false worship.
