whereby_o those_o decree_n which_o before_o such_o a_o confirmation_n do_v only_o oblige_v the_o conscience_n have_v then_o the_o coercive_a power_n of_o the_o state_n to_o compel_v their_o observation_n and_o this_o method_n do_v continue_v till_o the_o usurpation_n of_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n upon_o all_o power_n both_o civil_a and_o ecclesiastical_a for_o he_o now_o take_v upon_o he_o to_o assume_v unto_o himself_o the_o power_n of_o call_v council_n of_o preside_v in_o they_o and_o confirm_v their_o decree_n say_v that_o without_o his_o confirmation_n they_o be_v invalid_a thus_o do_v he_o make_v his_o own_o will_n to_o be_v of_o more_o authority_n than_o a_o general_n council_n and_o this_o same_o will_n of_o he_o to_o be_v superior_a to_o all_o supreme_a power_n and_o authority_n whatsoever_o but_o i_o shall_v add_v no_o more_o upon_o this_o subject_a but_o proceed_v to_o what_o i_o at_o first_o propose_v in_o the_o begin_n hereof_o where_o i_o shall_v take_v notice_n of_o some_o thing_n in_o the_o 15_o chap._n of_o the_o act_n of_o the_o holy_a apostle_n where_o we_o read_v of_o the_o first_o general_n council_n that_o ever_o be_v in_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o most_o likely_a to_o be_v a_o direction_n for_o all_o other_o it_o be_v occasion_v by_o a_o appeal_n make_v by_o some_o convert_v gentile_n to_o this_o general_a council_n for_o some_o pharisaical_a christian_n will_v impose_v upon_o these_o convert_v gentile_n the_o whole_a law_n of_o moses_n therefore_o to_o this_o general_a council_n they_o do_v appeal_v the_o word_n of_o the_o council_n be_v these_o the_o apostle_n and_o elder_n and_o brethren_n send_v greeting_n unto_o the_o brethren_n which_o be_v of_o the_o gentile_n in_o antioch_n chap._n ver._n 23._o of_o

to_o lay_v upon_o you_o no_o great_a burden_n than_o these_o necessary_a thing_n 29._o that_o you_o abstain_v from_o meet_v offer_v to_o idol_n and_o from_o blood_n and_o from_o thing_n strangle_v

in_o degree_n itself_o or_o three_o by_o way_n of_o confirm_v this_o decree_n of_o the_o council_n apostle_n elder_n and_o brethren_n be_v all_o alike_o concern_v send_v greeting_n unto_o the_o
