1 Corinthians8:4

Verſe 4. Is nothing in the world] A meer fiction it is, that the Idol repreſenteth, a brat of mans brain.

None other God but one] This the wiſer Heathen alſo acknowledged, and for oppoſing the multitude of gods Socrates ſuffered. Cicero in his books of the Nature of the gods, takes pains to ſhew the vanity of Heathen Deities. And after all wiſheth that he were as well able to finde out the true God, as to diſcover the falſe.
