A94728	Tombes, John, 1603?-1676.	Anthropolatria; or The sinne of glorying in men, especially in eminent ministers of the gospel. Wherein is set forth the nature and the causes of this sinne, as also the many pernicious effects which at all times this sinne hath produced, and with which the church of Christ is still infected. With some serious disswasives from this sinne, and directions to prevent the infection thereof. A discourse usefull, and in these times very seasonable. / By John Tombes, B.D. and preacher of Gods word at the Temple.	1645		.xml	application/xml	9512	336	67	For what is it to make a man a Rabbi , a father on earth , a Master , but to glory in him as the authour of our faith ; to esteeme him as the only Teacher , to depend upon his mouth as if he were another Pythagoras , {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} , that he hath said were enough ? now what is this lesse then to unchaire Christ , and to lift up man into his seate , to deprive the shepheard and bishop of our soules , and substitute another in his roome ? It is in effect all one as to thanke the Axe for building the house , and to passe by the Carpenter . Zanchius complaines against this evill , calling it {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} , a worshipping of men , and relates with indignation the speech of one at Geneva , who being asked why he would not sometimes heare Viret a worthy Preacher there , answered , that if Paul should preach at the same time with Calvin , he would heare Calvin ; and another complaines in his Epistle to Calvin , of a certaine person that was so affected to Luther , that he thought his very shooes should be adored .	cache/A94728.xml	txt/A94728.txt
