that_o it_o can_v not_o be_v so_o it_o be_v only_o pretend_v but_o it_o shall_v never_o be_v prove_v the_o anabaptist_n the_o libertine_n and_o the_o arian_n do_v pretend_v god_n word_n and_o the_o

all_o point_v the_o doctrine_n that_o this_o present_a church_n of_o england_n do_v now_o teach_v or_o from_o that_o day_n a_o thousand_o year_n before_o that_o or_o from_o thence_o unto_o the_o time_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n if_o they_o can_v not_o show_v any_o one_o such_o church_n as_o i_o be_o well_o assure_v they_o shall_v never_o be_v able_a to_o do_v than_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o either_o christ_n have_v no_o church_n in_o the_o world_n all_o that_o time_n till_o now_o their_o come_n or_o else_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o their_o church_n be_v a_o new_a invent_v and_o upstart_n church_n which_o with_o christ_n primitive_a church_n have_v no_o agreans_n like_a as_o it_o shall_v most_o plain_o appear_v unto_o you_o by_o these_o profess_v follow_v the_o answer_n in_o your_o last_o consideration_n you_o do_v inconsiderate_o allege_v that_o you_o be_v not_o of_o our_o church_n but_o show_v no_o sufficient_a reason_n why_o you_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v one_o of_o our_o church_n you_o say_v we_o be_v depart_v from_o the_o church_n in_o which_o we_o be_v baptize_v as_o though_o if_o a_o man_n be_v baptize_v in_o a_o church_n of_o

child_n of_o seven_o year_n old_a may_v see_v how_o slender_a a_o reason_n it_o be_v for_o a_o man_n to_o continue_v in_o any_o church_n or_o religion_n because_o he_o receive_v baptism_n therein_o for_o if_o a_o papist_n may_v not_o become_v a_o protestant_n because_o he_o be_v baptize_v in_o the_o popish_a church_n by_o the_o same_o reason_n a_o protestant_a must_n not_o become_v a_o papist_n
