And in the words following he declareth of what sor• those evil men were. And thou haste examined them whi•• say they be Apostles, and be not, and haste found them• airs.1 Lo he speaketh of the false apostles, of whom in s. Joh• time there was exceeding great plenty. For they were •• zareans mixing the law with grace, and attributing I•• fication to the law and to our own righteousness. Wh• the holy and great council at Jerusalem condemned, a• • pereth in the xv. chapter of the acts of the Apostles. S•• a false Apostle was Hebion. Eusebius mentioneth in th• book of the Ecclesiastical story the xxvii. chapter. Here […] was added Cerinthus that heretic not Apostle. There […] more also, whereof some denied the humanity of Chri•• some his deity. Against whom wrote John in his Gos••• and in his Epistle: And Ireney in the first book against h••• tickes. These the Lord denieth to be Apostles, or Apost••• call: which the Apostles have also denied Acts. 15. And •• wise the Apostle S. John in his epistle canonical: who […] liar, sayeth he, but he that denieth Jesus to be Christ? But if such trouble were in Churches whilst the Apos••• were yet living,2 if there were than so many disceave• what marvel is it, though in the dregs of the world, wit in this our last time, there be not a few soun• where be they now that wrest dissentions and troubles the defence of their error? The Gospellers them sel say they are at dissension. God is God of concord, he than should I believe that God is among those that […] sent? So might the Sophisters also have reasoned in th postles time.
