i_o say_v christ_n visible_a church_n for_o all_o my_o text_n speak_v of_o that_o and_o not_o of_o the_o synagogue_n and_o therefore_o the_o text_n you_o bring_v must_v be_v concern_v christ_n

it_o seem_v to_o stand_v his_o ground_n which_o bellarmin_n and_o peron_n and_o the_o rhemist_n stand_v upon_o but_o also_o because_o the_o promise_n be_v make_v to_o the_o catholic_a church_n thus_o

distinctive_o that_o though_o it_o be_v not_o free_a from_o all_o error_n yet_o from_o error_n damnative_n and_o i_o give_v he_o good_a reason_n why_o he_o shall_v take_v those_o word_n so_o because_o otherwise_o they_o be_v not_o like_a to_o be_v the_o church_n unto_o which_o that_o privilege_n be_v grant_v upon_o this_o i_o argue_v against_o their_o infallibility_n according_a to_o the_o

from_o damnative_a error_n therefore_o can_v they_o ultimate_o improve_v what_o we_o grant_v to_o the_o universal_a church_n for_o their_o use_n but_o 2._o he_o can_v not_o yet_o from_o hence_o

which_o be_v not_o the_o catholic_a church_n yet_o may_v we_o not_o follow_v the_o universal_a church_n absolute_o because_o it_o be_v not_o in_o all_o point_v infallible_a for_o so_o consequent_o we_o may_v be_v bind_v to_o follow_v error_n yea_o 3._o since_o according_a to_o our_o principle_n it_o be_v not_o exempt_v from_o all_o error_n according_a to_o mr._n knot_n be_v principle_n it_o
