CHAP. IX. How our Religion differeth from the Papists.
AND now out of all this it is easy for you to gather how our Religion differeth from the Papists: I shall recite but a few of the Differences, leaving you to collect the rest from what is said of theirs.

I. Our Religion is wholly Divine, or made by God: For so is the holy Scripture, which is all ours. But the Papists super additions are made by men: Even Popes and Councils, under pretence of Declaring, Expounding, Governing, Judging, &c.
II. The Religion of Protestants is no bigger, nor no other in the Essentials, than the Sacramental Covenant with God the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, expounded in the Creed, Lords Prayer, and Decalogue: And in the Integrals no bigger, nor other, than the holy Canonical Scriptures. But the Papists is as big as all the Decrees of all General Councils, added to all the Bible; if not the Popes Decretals also, and uncertain Traditions.
