2 Timothy1:3
Verſe 3. Whom I ſerve from my fore-fathers-] Thoſe twelve Tribes, that ſerved God inſtantly day and night. Act. 26.7. That was a deſperate reſolution of the Heathen Oratour, T[illegible: 1 letter]l. de nat. deo. l. 3. Me ex ea opinione, quam à majoribus accepi de cultu Deorum immortalium nullius unquam oratio, aut docti, aut indocti movebit. I will never ſtir an inch from the religion of my fore-fathers, for any mans perſwaſion. Paul forſook his Phariſaiſme to ſerve God, as Abraham, Iſaac and Jacob had done with a pure conſcience.
