But I will range no further: The Antinomians do more fall against this Text then any, in that they do not only by doctrine teach the dis-obligation of the least commandment, but of all, even of the whole Law. This doth appear true in the first Antinomians in Luther's time, of whom Islebius was the captain: he was a School-master, and also professor of Divinity at Islebia. It seemeth he was a man like a reed shaken with every wind: for first he defended, with the Orthodox, the Saxon Confession of Faith; but afterwards was one of those that compiled the Book called the Interim. When Luther admonished him of his error, he promised amendment, but for all that secretly scattered his error; which made Luther set forth publicly ⟨p. 277⟩six solemn disputations against the Antinomians, that are to be seen in his works: which argueth the impudency of those that would make Luther on their side. By these disputations of Luther's he was convinced, and revoked his error, publishing his recantation in print: yet when Luther was dead, this Euripus did fall into his old error, and publicly defended it. Now how justly they might be called Antinomists, or, as Luther sometimes, Nomomachists, appeareth by these Propositions, which they publicly scattered about in their papers: as.
