Matthew28:15
Verse 15. So they took the mony] So sequacious are such men to sinne, where any thing is to be got by it. Balaam will venture hard for the wages of wickednesse. Set but a wedge of gold in sight, and [illegible: 1 word], that could stop the Sun in his course, cannot stay Achan from fingering it. And this saying is commonly reported] They were given up to beleeve this lye, because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved, 2 Thess. 2. 10. There are that sense it otherwise. This saying is commonly reported; that is, this [illegible: 1 word] imposture of the Priests and souldiers, wretchedly conspiring to cosen the world with such a base lye, is sufficiently known for a peece of knavery, and is so resented to this day. Think the same of the Trent-conventicle, carried by the Pope, and his agents, with so much finenesse, &c. but so as now, all's come out to their eternall infamy.
