There are some that divide between the service of God and the service of sin, like the false Mother that would have the child divided. As Camden reports of Redwald King of the East-saxons, the first Prince of this Nation that was baptized, yet in the same Church he had one Altar for Christian Religion, another Altar for Heathenish religion: ⟨p. 23⟩So there are many such false-worshippers of God, that divide the rooms of their souls between God and the Devil, that swear by God, and by Malcham, Zeph. 1. 5. that sometimes pray, and sometimes curse, that sometimes go to Gods house, sometimes to a Play-house; that are of a Mongrel-religion, halting between God and Baal, Heteroclites in Religion, but God cannot endure this division. This is to set thy threshold by Gods threshold, Ezek. 43. 8. This is to set the Ark and Dagon together, which God will never endure, God cares not for one half of thy heart, if sin and the Devil hath the other half.
