But the Romish Clergy have made this prohibition of none effect by their Unwritten Tradition: that images may be worshipped relatively with the worship due to their prototypes, that dead saints may be justifiably invocated to give us their intercessory assistance, and that, provided only we take care to denominate the worship of the Saints and the Virgin _Dulia_ and _Hyperdulia_ while we rigidly style the worship of the Deity _Latria_, we may laudably (after the precise manner of the old Pagan idolaters {31b}) kiss and uncover our heads and fall prostrate before their images, duly through each image (again on the exact avowed principle of the same Old Pagan idolaters {31c}) referring to each being represented by such image his own appropriate reverence and adoration. {32a} 2. A similar admonition, against the vanity of following Unwritten Tradition rather than the certainty of the Written Word, is given by the Apostle St. Paul. _As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord_, _so walk ye in him_; _rooted and built up in him_, _and stablished in the faith_, _as ye have been taught_, _abounding therein with thanksgiving_. _Beware_, _lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit_, _after the tradition of men_, _after the rudiments of the world_, _and not after Christ_. {32b} 3. The romish pretence of _an_ EQUALLY _authoritative Unwritten Tradition_ plainly involves an assertion of _the Insufficiency of the Written Word_. But the written Word declares its own Sufficiency. Therefore, on that precise ground, it condemns the romish pretence of an EQUALLY authoritative concurrent Unwritten Tradition. (1.) _Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you_, _neither shall ye diminish ought from it_: _that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God_, _which I command you_. {32c} (2.) _To the law and to the testimony_: _if they speak not according to this word_, _it is because there is no light in them_. {32d} (3.) _Though we or an angel from heaven preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you_, _let him be accursed_. {32e} (4.) _From a child_, _thou hast known the holy scriptures_, _which are able to make thee wise unto salvation_, _through faith which is in Christ Jesus_. _All scripture is given by inspiration of God_: _and is profitable for doctrine_, _for reproof_, _for correction_, _for instruction in righteousness_; _that the man of God may be perfect_, _throughly furnished unto all good works_. {33a}
