1The true pretty and holiness of those who wrote the holy Scriptures, and made open profession of the doctrine comprised therein. For that Religion is most sacred & divine, which maketh men holy and acceptable unto God. But the Patriarchs, Prophets, Apostles, ⟨p. 12⟩and others, who heretofore have, and now do earnestly embrace this doctrine, far exceed men of other Religions in true virtue and integrity, as by the conference and comparison will appear. Wherefore it accordeth with reason, that the doctrine of the Church, rather then of any other Religion whatsoever, is true and divine.
