1A burden in the sermons of the Prophets is taken for doctrine of grave & weighty matters. The Apostles also call the ⟨p. 99⟩law a yoke & burden. Where therefore the Lord saith that he will not lay upon the church any other burden, he saith how he will not reveal any other doctrine, nor further charge them, with other rites or ceremonies, than such as he had ordained & imposed already. And with these words of Christ accord those things very well, which are red in thapostles epistle Synodical Act .xv. For by the common consent of the congregation, & after the mind of the holy ghost, they say they will impose nothing moreover upon the church, than such things as they had received already of S. Paul, & a few things that they added for a declaration of the same. Whereupon S. Paul said to the Galath. If an angel from heaven preach unto you an other Gospel, besides that which is preached, let him be accursed.
