You must understand the ground from Scripture, 1and especially in the matters of Gods Worship before you yield and submit to any thing, for otherwise though things may seem to be very fair at first, yet they may prove to be but snares before you are aware. Again

And hatred in the house of God.1
- 1Obs. 8.
First, This Watch-man is an object of Gods hatred, in Gods §1House; wicked Officers in the Church bringing in their superstition, and importuning and urging the delusions of their own hearts, seeking to comply with the times to preserve themselves in credit and esteem, and enjoyment of their livings, they are an object of Gods hatred, these were the Watch-men that did comply with the times and sought their own ends, they were the object of the hatred of God; no people in the world whom God doth hate more than such kind of Watch-men in his House. And at this day we see how God hath cast shame and loathsomeness in the faces of such. They are hatred by way of exclamation: ô rem odiosamit abominandam domo Dei. Oh hideous and abominable thing that such Watch-men should be pertaining to the Sanctuary.
