Knox On The Regulative Principle

All worshipping, honoring or service invented by the brain of man in the religion of God, without his own express commandment, is idolatry. The mass is invented by the brain of man without any commandment of God: Therefore it is idolatry.

—John Knox, Works, 3.34 (spelling modernized. HT: Sung Yeo).
