The preaching bishop reproving unpreaching prelates Being a brief, but faithful collection of observable passages, in several sermons preached by the reverend father in God, Mr Hugh Latimer, Bish. of Worcester, (one of our first reformers, and a glorious martyr of Jesus Christ) before K. Edw. the sixth; before the convocation of the clergy, and before the citizens of London, at Pauls. Wherein, many things, relating to the honour and happiness of the king (our most gracious sovereign) the honourable lords, the reverend judges, the citizens of London, and commons of all sorts, but especially, the bishops and clergy are most plainly, piously and pithily represented.The preaching bishop reproving unpreaching prelates Being a brief, but faithful collection of observeable passages, in several sermons preached by the reverend father in God, Mr Hugh Latimer, Bish. of Worcester, (one of our first reformers, and a glorious martyr of Jesus Christ) before K.

There is a great error risen now: days among many of us,1 which are vain and new fangled men climbing beyond the limits of our capacity and wit, in wrenching this Text of Scripture hereafter following after their own Fancy and Brain, their error is upon this Text, 1 Sam. 8. 7. They wrench these words after their own fantasies, and make much doubt as touching a King and his Godly name.

They that so do, walk inordinately, they walk not directly and plainly, but delight in balks and stubble way. It maketh no matter by what name the Rulers be named, if so be they shall walk ordinately with God, and direct their steps with God, for both Patriarchs Judges and Kings had, and have their authority from God, and therefore Godly.
