CAnst thou prove in all the Scripture that God commanded any of his to salute any by the way or to take his name in vaine or to use any other heathenish customes but God Christ the Prophets and Apostles commands The contrary God saith Thou shalt not take my name in vain nor bow to any creature Christ saith Salute no man by the way The Prophet saith Salute no man by the way if any salute you answer him not again And the Apostle saith Bid Godspeed to none but such as abide in the Doctrine of Christ and have both the Father and the Son for he that bids him Godspeed is partaker of his evil deeds God saith Thou shalt not do after the manner of the heathen And Christ saith Every idle word shall be accounted for at the day of judgement and by thy words thou shalt be condemned Now thou that art offended at any for obeying the commands of God Christ the Prophets and Apostles shewst thy selfe to be no Christian but a Heathen and wilt neither obey the commands of God thy selfe nor suffer them that would but strives to uphold such costomes as God never commanded but are set up by the World and used without the feare of God Now how art thou exalted thou man of sin who wilt both dishonour God thy selfe and would compel thy brother also to act contrary to his Conscience What place would thou leave for the Throne of Christ I.
