11, 13. Now St. Paul teaches us, 1 Cor. X. 11, that the things which happened to the Jewish Church happened unto them for ensamples, and are written for our admonition. Therefore we say of the Church of Rome, that as she has not apostatized from the Christian faith, but has preserved that entire in the Apostolical, Nicene, and Athanasian Creeds, — as she admits members into the Church by baptism, in the form of words ap- pointed by Christ, — as she has preserved the succession of the priesthood... instituted by Christ and his Apostles, as the JeAvs preserved the Aaronical succession, — as she continues to offer the Holy Eucharist according to Christ's institution, (though she do not distribute it as she ought, ) — and as she observes the other ordinances derived from the direction or example of the Apostles, we cannot deny her to be a Church and Spouse of Christ. But, then, as she adds the worship of departed saints to the worship of God, as the Jews join'd the worship of Baal and Ashteroth and other false gods to the worship of the Lord, she is become an adulteress.
