The eleventh Crimination.
A. They are Anti-christian half-Infidels. For they deny Christs Kingdom as to its far greatest part: For when the Scripture telleth us, That to this end he both died, rose and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living, Rom. 14. 9. And that the Father hath committed all Judgment (that is Government) to the Son, Joh. 5. 22. And given him all power in Heaven and Earth, Matth. 28. 18. And that his dying for all, obligeth all men not to live to themselves, but to him that died for them, 2 Cor. 5. And so that he hath by his death acquired a jus Dominii & Imperii over all Mankind; they deny him his Crown and Dignity, even this Right of Dominion and Empire as Redeemer, and deny the World to be obliged to subjection to him as their Redeemer: And so make that Rebellion for which they shall perish (Luke 19. 27.) to be no sin.
B. The Protestant Churches hold all that you charge them with denying. It's a pitiful work to calumniate that you may divide: Tell those singular men of all this, that are guilty of it.
