then_o that_o which_o be_v already_o lay_v 1_o cor._n 3.11_o which_o be_v jesus_n christ_n so_o he_o be_v the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o the_o beginning_n and_o the_o end_n and_o a.s._n his_o

not_o the_o work_n of_o the_o apostle_n to_o set_v themselves_o one_o above_o another_o for_o they_o abase_v themselves_o that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n may_v be_v exalt_v neither_o do_v they_o

answer_v i_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o there_o be_v a_o true_a church_n at_o rome_n in_o the_o apostle_n day_n but_o that_o the_o church_n now_o at_o rome_n be_v therefore_o the_o true_a church_n that_o do_v not_o follow_v for_o as_o i_o have_v before_o prove_v the_o true_a church_n in_o the_o apostle_n day_n be_v far_o different_a both_o in_o discipline_n and_o practice_n from_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n that_o now_o be_v but_o then_o a.s._n say_v if_o the_o roman_a pontificial_a do_v fall_v what_o church_n do_v she_o fall_v from_o if_o she_o do_v fail_v when_o &_o c_o i_o answer_v paul_n in_o the_o first_o chapter_n in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n speak_v of_o some_o who_o when_o they_o know_v god_n do_v not_o glorify_v he_o as_o god_n but_o become_v vain_a in_o their_o imagination_n and_o change_v the_o glory_n of_o the_o incorruptible_a god_n into_o a_o image_n make_v like_a to_o corruptible_a man_n and_o so_o not_o like_v to_o retain_v god_n in_o their_o knowledge_n god_n give_v they_o up_o to_o a_o reprobate_a mind_n and_o they_o be_v fill_v with_o unrighteousness_n fornication_n and_o wickedness_n covetousness_n envy_n murder_n etc._n etc._n rom._n 1.21.23.28_o 29._o and_o be_v not_o this_o the_o very_a state_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n at_o this_o day_n be_v she_o not_o now_o fill_v with_o these_o thing_n sure_o yes_o thousand_o of_o thousand_o must_v acknowledge_v it_o if_o they_o consider_v it_o and_o speak_v the_o truth_n oh_o the_o murder_n act_v by_o she_o and_o the_o blood_n she_o have_v drink_v as_o before_o hint_v and_o the_o adultery_n commit_v within_o her_o border_n indeed_o these_o and_o many_o other_o her_o abomination_n be_v innumerable_a as_o she_o herself_o full_a well_o know_v therefore_o she_o be_v indeed_o fall_v and_o deep_o revolt_v from_o that_o pure_a spirit_n in_o which_o the_o true_a church_n stand_v in_o the_o apostle_n day_n thence_o she_o be_v fall_v and_o the_o time_n when_o she_o fall_v be_v when_o she_o begin_v to_o enter_v into_o these_o aforesaid_a abomination_n that_o be_v now_o find_v in_o she_o well_o 2._o but_o then_o a.s._n say_v that_o if_o the_o true_a church_n be_v infallible_a she_o must_v have_v always_o remain_v without_o interruption_n since_o christ_n time_n to_o this_o day_n etc._n etc._n i_o answer_v although_o the_o true_a church_n be_v infallible_a yet_o it_o do_v not_o absolute_o follow_v that_o she_o must_v have_v always_o remain_v without_o interruption_n unto_o this_o day_n for_o as_o i_o have_v already_o prove_v the_o true_a church_n be_v interrupt_v by_o the_o dragon_n and_o be_v persecute_v into_o the_o wilderness_n but_o she_o do_v not_o fail_v but_o remain_v there_o and_o have_v a_o be_v there_o a_o place_n prepare_v of_o god_n for_o she_o concern_v which_o i_o shall_v have_v occasion_n to_o speak_v more_o full_o short_o 3._o but_o a.s._n say_v that_o no_o other_o church_n on_o earth_n have_v remain_v unto_o this_o day_n without_o interruption_n beside_o the_o roman_a pontificial_a and_o therefore_o she_o be_v the_o true_a church_n i_o answer_v no_o she_o be_v not_o therefore_o the_o true_a church_n but_o the_o whore_n for_o as_o i_o have_v already_o prove_v the_o true_a church_n be_v interrupt_v and_o yet_o remain_v 4._o but_o than_o say_v a.s._n if_o any_o can_v say_v that_o there_o have_v remain_v any_o other_o church_n on_o earth_n since_o christ_n time_n unto_o this_o day_n without_o interruption_n and_o error_n let_v he_o tell_v what_o be_v she_o or_o what_o be_v she_o where_o be_v she_o or_o where_o be_v she_o what_o be_v her_o name_n what_o bishop_n pastor_n and_o believer_n have_v she_o or_o yet_o have_v she_o what_o emperor_n or_o king_n do_v adhere_v to_o she_o or_o now_o do_v what_o

then_o say_v he_o to_o these_o and_o such_o like_a interrogatory_n all_o the_o schismatic_n sectary_n and_o heretic_n in_o the_o world_n can_v answer_v answ_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v although_o all_o the_o sectary_n in_o the_o world_n can_v answer_v those_o question_n yet_o there_o be_v many_o who_o be_v member_n of_o the_o true_a church_n not_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n that_o can_v answer_v they_o and_o first_o i_o say_v there_o have_v remain_v another_o church_n since_o christ_n time_n to_o this_o day_n beside_o the_o roman_a pontificial_a tha●_n now_o be_v though_o not_o
