be_v i_o confess_v a_o cunning_a suggestion_n and_o i_o hope_v will_v warn_v all_o sober_a christian_n to_o join_v more_o devout_o in_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o church_n which_o they_o do_v

no_o need_n to_o exercise_v any_o church_n censure_n and_o therefore_o no_o use_n for_o anathema_n for_o this_o seem_v to_o be_v the_o true_a reason_n why_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n be_v so_o liberal_a of_o anathema_n because_o there_o be_v so_o many_o obstinate_a and_o incorrigible_a heretic_n at_o that_o time_n 2._o the_o next_o enquiry_n be_v whether_o the_o depose_n decree_n be_v a_o

because_o he_o think_v the_o doctrine_n of_o depose_v heretical_a prince_n erroneous_a or_o only_o because_o he_o do_v like_o the_o practice_n of_o it_o if_o the_o first_o than_o it_o seem_v this_o be_v a_o doctrinal_a decree_n as_o well_o as_o a_o decree_n of_o discipline_n and_o government_n if_o he_o only_o condemn_v the_o practice_n of_o it_o without_o renounce_v the_o doctrine_n let_v he_o say_v so_o and_o see_v how_o prince_n will_v like_v it_o when_o papist_n dispute_v among_o themselves_o about_o this_o depose_v decree_n those_o who_o be_v for_o it_o vindicate_v the_o pope_n power_n to_o depose_v prince_n those_o who_o be_v against_o it_o deny_v that_o the_o pope_n have_v any_o such_o power_n which_o show_v that_o they_o think_v it_o a_o doctrinal_a dispute_n for_o there_o be_v no_o other_o difference_n between_o they_o but_o whether_o the_o pope_n have_v or_o have_v not_o power_n to_o do_v it_o which_o be_v a_o point_n of_o doctrine_n but_o when_o they_o dispute_v with_o we_o heretic_n than_o the_o church_n have_v not_o decree_v it_o as_o a_o point_n of_o doctrine_n but_o only_o of_o discipline_n and_o government_n but_o let_v they_o tell_v i_o then_o if_o this_o decree_n do_v not_o involve_v a_o doctrinal_a error_n what_o be_v the_o fault_n of_o it_o 3._o but_o suppose_v this_o decree_n must_v be_v only_o rank_v among_o the_o decreta_fw-la morum_fw-la which_o

it_o seem_v good_a to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o to_o we_o to_o lay_v upon_o you_o no_o great_a burden_n than_o these_o necessary_a thing_n that_o you_o abstain_v from_o meat_n offer_v to_o idol_n

what_o to_o do_v and_o yet_o we_o find_v the_o holy_a ghost_n assist_v in_o such_o decree_n for_o indeed_o the_o rule_n of_o discipline_n and_o government_n to_o direct_v the_o life_n and_o manner_n of_o man_n be_v the_o only_a proper_a subject_n of_o ecclesiastical_a authority_n and_o therefore_o we_o may_v most_o reasonable_o expect_v that_o god_n shall_v assist_v and_o direct_v his_o church_n in_o such_o matter_n the_o church_n have_v no_o authority_n to_o make_v new_a article_n of_o faith_n the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v by_o christ_n and_o what_o christ_n can_v not_o perfect_o instruct_v

expect_v no_o far_o revelation_n and_o therefore_o as_o to_o matter_n of_o faith_n the_o authority_n of_o general_n council_n be_v no_o more_o than_o the_o authority_n of_o witness_n to_o declare_v what_o doctrine_n they_o receive_v from_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n and_o therefore_o their_o authority_n can_v reach_v no_o far_o than_o we_o may_v reasonable_o presume_v they_o to_o be_v credible_a witness_n that_o be_v while_o the_o tradition_n may_v be_v suppose_v clear_a and_o strong_a which_o i_o doubt_v will_v go_v no_o far_o than_o the_o four_o first_o general_n council_n

for_o want_v of_o authority_n or_o infallibility_n in_o the_o council_n to_o make_v decree_n to_o oblige_v all_o the_o christian_a world_n and_o if_o christian_a prince_n will_v not_o submit_v to_o the_o decree_n of_o council_n and_o the_o church_n dare_v not_o compel_v they_o to_o it_o do_v this_o justify_v such_o a_o refusal_n the_o truth_n be_v such_o decree_n ought_v not_o to_o take_v
