Others by Kingdom of heaven do understand the Church of God, and so they express it, when there shall be a reformation in the Church, and truth should break forth, which was presently to come to pass, then those corrupt teachers, who would poison men, should be discovered, and then they should be least, that is, of no account; even as it fell out to the Pharisees, though for a while they were highly esteemed among men. I forbear to touch upon that Question hotly disputed with some, Whether our Saviour do in this discourse mean only the 1Moral Law, or the Ceremonial also, as being not to my purpose. That it is meant chiefly of the Moral Law, appeareth by the instances which Christ giveth. From the Text thus opened, I observe, That any doctrine, which teacheth tho abrogation or dissolution of the Law, is highly offensive unto God.
