It is not necessary that Traditions and Ceremonies be in all places
one, and utterly like; for at all times they have been divers, and
may be changed according to the diversities of countries, times,
and men's manners, so that nothing be ordained against God's Word.
Whosoever through his private judgement, willingly and purposely,
doth openly break the Traditions and Ceremonies of the Church,
which be not repugnant to the Word of God, and be ordained and
approved by common authority, ought to be rebuked openly, (that
others may fear to do the like,) as he that offendeth against the
common order of the Church, and hurteth the authority of the
Magistrate, and woundeth the consciences of the weak brethren.
Every particular or national Church hath authority to ordain,
change, and abolish, Ceremonies or Rites of the Church ordained
only by man's authority, so that all things be done to edifying.
