all_o christian_n agree_v and_o let_v i_o have_v your_o warrant_n that_o i_o be_o bind_v to_o believe_v neither_o the_o trinity_n nor_o incarnation_n nor_o any_o thing_n wherein_o all_o christian_n do_v not_o agree_v now_o if_o you_o tell_v i_o i_o be_o oblige_v to_o stand_v to_o the_o determination_n of_o one_o particular_a church_n or_o some_o and_o not_o all_o tell_v i_o which_o and_o why_o that_o or_o those_o more_o than_o other_o what_o church_n for_o example_n be_v particular_a person_n bind_v to_o follow_v two_o hundred_o year_n ago_o before_o the_o reformation_n answer_n our_o author_n at_o first_o put_v the_o question_n whether_o all_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n be_v contain_v in_o scripture_n and_o upon_o this_o he_o argue_v if_o they_o be_v than_o they_o be_v either_o clear_o contain_v in_o it_o so_o that_o there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o a_o interpreter_n for_o the_o meaning_n of_o they_o or_o not_o if_o the_o addresser_n can_v have_v gain_v the_o first_o point_n that_o all_o necessary_n be_v not_o contain_v in_o scripture_n than_o the_o case_n lie_v fair_a before_o he_o and_o it_o will_v follow_v as_o he_o suppose_v that_o there_o must_v be_v some_o external_a and_o speak_a authority_n from_o whence_o those_o necessary_n not_o contain_v in_o scripture_n be_v to_o be_v receive_v and_o where_o they_o be_v to_o be_v fight_v this_o be_v a_o case_n he_o put_v to_o the_o question_n if_o not_o where_o must_v i_o seek_v they_o but_o there_o he_o leave_v it_o indeed_o it_o be_v a_o tender_a point_n because_o of_o late_o they_o will_v have_v we_o believe_v that_o they_o have_v scripture_n for_o what_o they_o differ_v from_o we_o in_o and_o then_o to_o talk_v of_o necessary_n not_o to_o be_v find_v in_o scripture_n and_o to_o instance_n in_o those_o necessary_n will_v be_v to_o give_v up_o that_o cause_n which_o they_o have_v so_o much_o labour_v to_o support_v in_o that_o way_n and_o to_o tell_v the_o world_n that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v the_o treasurer_n of_o all_o those_o necessary_n be_v a_o doctrine_n not_o so_o suitable_a to_o the_o genius_n of_o the_o present_a age_n as_o it_o be_v to_o other_o heretofore_o but_o if_o that_o will_v not_o be_v yield_v that_o all_o necessary_n be_v not_o contain_v in_o scripture_n he_o than_o put_v in_o with_o a_o second_o that_o they_o be_v not_o so_o clear_o contain_v in_o it_o as_o not_o to_o need_v a_o interpreter_n and_o if_o this_o be_v yield_v he_o will_v in_o his_o own_o opinion_n save_v his_o cause_n for_o than_o he_o conclude_v there_o must_v be_v some_o guide_n and_o interpreter_n and_o it_o will_v be_v necessary_a to_o know_v who_o and_o where_o the_o interpreter_n be_v now_o if_o we_o may_v guess_v what_o kind_n of_o interpreter_n or_o guide_v it_o be_v that_o he_o will_v have_v it_o be_v one_o that_o be_v necessary_a for_o all_o to_o believe_v and_o who_o interpretation_n all_o be_v oblige_v to_o receive_v a_o guide_n that_o be_v a_o judge_n and_o who_o judgement_n be_v absolute_a final_a and_o conclusive_a into_o which_o all_o be_v to_o be_v resolve_v and_o from_o which_o there_o be_v no_o appeal_n that_o be_v to_o teach_v all_o necessary_n to_o salvation_n not_o contain_v in_o scripture_n and_o to_o interpret_v the_o meaning_n of_o those_o that_o be_v without_o which_o we_o can_v know_v whether_o there_o be_v a_o trinity_n or_o our_o saviour_n be_v incarnate_a and_o upon_o who_o determination_n all_o the_o article_n of_o our_o faith_n do_v depend_v for_o their_o declaration_n here_o the_o case_n be_v immutable_o fix_v say_v our_o author_n i_o must_v believe_v it_o be_v necessary_a to_o believe_v i_o be_o oblige_v to_o believe_v and_o be_o bind_v to_o follow_v as_o he_o put_v the_o case_n but_o now_o we_o that_o be_v for_o

necessary_a to_o salvation_n be_v not_o contain_v in_o scripture_n and_o to_o have_v it_o bring_v to_o his_o first_o question_n if_o so_o where_o must_v i_o seek_v they_o or_o that_o they_o be_v not_o
