See therefore that thou do nothing to please God withal, but that he commandeth, neither ask any thing of him, but that he hath promised thee. The Jews also (as it appeareth Act. vij) slew Steven of a good zeal: because he proved by the scripture, that God dwelleth not in Churches or temples made with hands. The Churches at the beginning were 1ordained that the people should thither resort to hear the word of God there preached only, and not for the use wherein they now are. The temple wherein God will be worshipped, 2is the hart of man. For God is a spirit (saith Christ Joh. 4.) and will be worshipped in yt spirit & in truth: that is, when a penitent hart consenteth unto the law of God, and with a strong faith longeth for the promises of God. So is God honoured on all sides, in that we count him righteous in all his laws and ordinances, and also trust in all his promises. Other worshipping of God is there none, except we make an Idol of him.
