although_o the_o true_a church_n of_o which_o christ_n be_v in_o visible_a head_n be_v one_o yet_o the_o oneness_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v not_o a_o sufficient_a argument_n to_o prove_v

as_o she_o have_v do_v for_o many_o hundred_o year_n past_a as_o the_o whole_a christendom_n full_a well_o know_v therefore_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v not_o the_o true_a church_n second_o and_o

i_o utter_o deny_v witness_v the_o history_n of_o the_o counsel_n of_o trent_n which_o copious_o relate_v the_o division_n and_o contradiction_n among_o they_o there_o about_o matter_n of_o faith_n

true_a church_n second_o that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v govern_v by_o one_o invisible_a head_n christ_n that_o i_o also_o deny_v and_o her_o fruit_n before_o mention_v and_o that_o which_o i_o

now_o you_o go_v about_o to_o kill_v i_o thus_o do_v not_o abraham_n so_o say_v i_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n if_o she_o be_v govern_v by_o the_o one_o invisible_a head_n christ_n as_o the_o true_a church_n be_v than_o she_o will_v have_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n who_o come_v not_o to_o destroy_v man_n life_n but_o to_o save_v they_o as_o the_o true_a church_n have_v 1_o corinth_n 2.16_o but_o she_o have_v not_o the_o mind_n of_o christ_n witness_v she_o destroy_v the_o life_n of_o many_o not_o only_o of_o those_o that_o believe_v not_o but_o of_o those_o that_o believe_v therefore_o she_o be_v not_o govern_v by_o the_o invisible_a head_n christ_n and_o consequent_o be_v not_o the_o true_a church_n but_o the_o whore_n that_o drink_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o saint_n three_o but_o that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v govern_v by_o her_o visible_a head_n the_o pope_n i_o shall_v not_o go_v about_o to_o contradict_v for_o although_o that_o prove_v she_o to_o be_v one_o in_o subjection_n to_o the_o pope_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o prove_v she_o to_o be_v the_o true_a church_n because_o christ_n never_o ordain_v a_o visible_a head_n to_o his_o church_n but_o that_o the_o pope_n be_v the_o true_a successor_n of_o peter_n as_o a._n s._n affirm_v that_o i_o do_v deny_v and_o it_o remain_v for_o he_o to_o prove_v it_o or_o for_o some_o of_o his_o servant_n to_o do_v

of_o which_o the_o pope_n be_v visible_a head_n be_v not_o holy_a nor_o the_o spotless_a body_n of_o christ_n 1._o for_o the_o spotless_a body_n of_o christ_n the_o true_a church_n be_v baptize_v

the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v not_o wash_v from_o idolatry_n nor_o free_a from_o murder_n as_o her_o worship_v of_o idol_n or_o image_n do_v testify_v and_o as_o her_o kill_n and_o destroy_v about_o

therefore_o the_o true_a church_n be_v not_o compose_v of_o both_o good_a and_o bad_a but_o of_o the_o good_a only_o but_o to_o return_v to_o the_o five_o part_n of_o a._n s._n his_o argument_n
