what_o he_o require_v again_o of_o they_o and_o for_o what_o cause_n 9_o which_o also_o the_o scripture_n intend_v profess_v to_o teach_v christ_n 10._o for_o whatsoever_o be_v therein_o deliver_v either_o it_o pertain_v to_o the_o true_a knowledge_n of_o christ_n person_n or_o his_o office_n 11._o the_o difference_n between_o the_o doctrine_n deliver_v in_o scripture_n and_o the_o religion_n of_o other_o sect_n be_v these_o first_o in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o true_a church_n be_v teach_v the_o whole_a gospel_n of_o christ_n but_o other_o religion_n either_o know_v it_o not_o at_o

deliver_v the_o whole_a law_n of_o god_n &_o that_o righte_o understand_v other_o religion_n cut_v of_o the_o chief_a point_n thereof_o namely_o the_o true_a knowledge_n and_o worship_n of_o god_n or_o the_o first_o table_n of_o the_o commandment_n and_o the_o internal_a and_o spiritual_a obedience_n of_o the_o second_o table_n retaininge_v only_o a_o part_n thereof_o namely_o the_o precept_n of_o discipline_n or_o external_a and_o civil_a duty_n towards_o man_n 13._o but_o though_o even_o they_o also_o do_v boast_v and_o glory_n of_o the_o true_a god_n and_o his_o worship_n yet_o do_v they_o err_v from_o he_o for_o 3_o cause_n first_o because_o natural_a testimony_n be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o true_a god_n second_o because_o unto_o they_o man_n join_v many_o error_n of_o their_o own_o thir●ly_o because_o for_o want_v of_o the_o light_n of_o god_n word_n they_o understand_v not_o even_o those_o thing_n which_o in_o word_n they_o true_o profess_v but_o corrupt_v they_o with_o a_o evil_a interpretation_n 14._o either_o they_o command_v only_o so_o much_o touch_v aff●ections_n and_o inclination_n disagree_v with_o the_o second_o table_n as_o may_v serve_v to_o bridle_v they_o which_o be_v but_o a_o part_n of_o this_o doctrine_n or_o they_o do_v accuse_v and_o condemn_v all_o or_o else_o they_o do_v not_o so_o much_o accuse_v and_o

his_o just_a judgement_n give_v they_o over_o into_o a_o reprobate_a sense_n 16_o we_o pronounce_v the_o doctrine_n of_o holy_a scripture_n to_o be_v true_a not_o for_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n but_o because_o we_o know_v it_o be_v deliver_v unto_o we_o by_o god_n 17_o that_o it_o be_v from_o god_n we_o know_v by_o testimony_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o godly_a by_o our_o deliverance_n from_o sin_n and_o death_n whereof_o this_o only_a religion_n do_v assure_v we_o by_o the_o purity_n &_o integrity_n of_o the_o law_n which_o be_v find_v only_o in_o the_o church_n by_o the_o prophecy_n and_o the_o fulfil_n thereof_o by_o miracle_n proper_a only_o to_o the_o church_n by_o the_o antiquity_n of_o this_o &_o late_o upstarte_v newness_n of_o other_o by_o the_o consent_n and_o agreement_n of_o every_o part_n in_o this_o doctrine_n and_o the_o disagreement_n in_o other_o by_o the_o hatred_n of_o satan_n and_o all_o the_o wicked_a against_o this_o doctrine_n by_o the_o miraculouse_a preservation_n &_o defence_n thereof_o against_o the_o devil_n and_o the_o world_n by_o the_o punnishmente_n inflict_v upon_o the_o enemy_n thereof_o by_o the_o constancy_n of_o martyr_n and_o confessor_n who_o have_v sure_a comfort_n even_o in_o death_n by_o their_o holy_a life_n by_o who_o it_o be_v deliver_v and_o spread_v abroad_o 18._o no_o opinion_n of_o god_n or_o his_o will_n and_o worship_n must_v be_v receive_v which_o be_v not_o set_v down_o in_o scripture_n &_o we_o must_v so_o fa●_n give_v credit_n to_o other_o doctor_n of_o the_o church_n as_o they_o confirm_v their_o doctrine_n out_o of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n 19_o this_o be_v not_o only_o prove_v by_o testimony_n of_o holy_a scripture_n whereby_o we_o be_v command_v in_o case_n of_o religion_n to_o depend_v on_o it_o alone_o but_o also_o by_o the_o nature_n &_o definition_n of_o faith_n and_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n both_o which_o must_v needs_o be_v ground_v on_o god_n word_n also_o by_o the_o perfection_n of_o this_o prophetical_a &_o apostolical_a doctrine_n and_o by_o the_o diverse_a calling_n of_o prophet_n apostle_n &_o other_o doctor_n &_o teacher_n of_o the_o church_n 3._o of_o the_o certainty_n and_o authority_n of_o holy_a scripture_n 1._o it_o be_v certain_a that_o only_o this_o doctrine_n of_o religion_n which_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o prophet_n &_o apostle_n be_v deliver_v by_o god_n himself_o &_o do_v not_o only_o nor_o principal_o rely_v upon_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n but_o most_o especial_o upon_o the_o testimony_n of_o god_n &_o the_o scripture_n itself_o 2._o the_o first_o and_o principal_a argument_n whereby_o this_o authority_n of_o holy_a scripture_n be_v establish_v among_o we_o be_v the_o witness_n of_o god_n holy_a spirit_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o faithful_a 3._o this_o witness_n as_o it_o be_v peculiar_a to_o the_o godly_a so_o it_o only_o cause_v we_o in_o true_a faith_n to_o embrace_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o prophet_n &_o apostle_n all_o the_o rest_n may_v be_v understand_v even_o of_o they_o which_o be_v not_o regenerate_v and_o do_v indeed_o convince_v or_o forceable_o persuade_v we_o of_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o doctrine_n but_o except_o we_o have_v also_o this_o witness_n of_o the_o spirit_n they_o can_v never_o move_v our_o mind_n to_o embrace_v and_o give_v credit_n to_o they_o 4._o the_o second_o argument_n be_v because_o this_o doctrine_n only_o show_v man_n the_o cause_n of_o evil_a &_o deliverrance_n from_o sin_n &_o death_n agree_v with_o the_o perfect_a justice_n and_o goodness_n of_o god_n and_o also_o satisfy_v our_o conscience_n 5_o the_o three_o because_o only_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n retain_v god_n law_n entire_a &_o pure_a but_o all_o other_o religion_n frame_n unto_o themselves_o god_n and_o their_o worship_n without_o any_o authority_n from_o god_n and_o approve_v many_o thing_n contrary_a to_o the_o law_n natural_o know_v unto_o us._n 6_o the_o four_o because_o history_n and_o experience_n do_v witness_v that_o the_o event_n have_v answer_v those_o prediction_n which_o have_v be_v here_o and_o there_o set_v down_o in_o scripture_n 7_o the_o five_o be_v the_o miracle_n add_v to_o this_o doctrine_n 8_o the_o six_o antiquity_n because_o this_o religion_n wa●_n the_o first_o and_o have_v continue_v the_o same_o from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n until_o this_o day_n 9_o the_o seven_o the_o consent_n and_o agreement_n of_o all_o part_n of_o this_o doctrine_n between_o themselves_o which_o be_v not_o in_o other_o religion_n 10_o the_o eight_o be_v the_o hatred_n of_o satan_n and_o all_o the_o wicked_a against_o this_o doctrine_n 11_o the_o nine_o be_v god_n preservation_n and_o defence_n of_o this_o doctrine_n against_o all_o his_o enemy_n 12_o the_o ten_o the_o punishment_n of_o such_o enemy_n as_o persecute_v or_o corrupt_v this_o doctrine_n 13_o the_o eleven_o the_o constancy_n of_o martyr_n and_o confessor_n tertullian_n the_o blood_n of_o martyr_n be_v the_o seed_n of_o the_o church_n the_o martyr_n of_o the_o church_n differ_v from_o others●_n in_o multitude_n 2_o in_o alacrity_n &_o cheerfulness_n in_o undergo_n danger_n &_o death_n itself_o 3_o the_o defender_n of_o wicked_a doctrine_n suffer_v when_o they_o be_v convict_v of_o error_n but_o the_o godly_a be_v by_o tyrannical_a force_n carry_v away_o to_o punishment_n 14_o the_o twelve_o their_o holiness_n of_o life_n by_o who_o it_o be_v deliver_v and_o spread_v abroad_o far_o exceed_v the_o virtue_n of_o heathen_a man_n and_o such_o as_o follow_v other_o religion_n 15_o see_v therefore_o this_o only_a doctrine_n of_o religion_n be_v true_a and_o divine_a no_o opinion_n can_v bind_v our_o conscience_n to_o belief_n or_o obedience_n which_o be_v not_o establish_v by_o testimony_n of_o holy_a scripture_n right_o understand_v but_o no_o opinion_n disagree_v therewithal_o be_v to_o be_v so_o much_o as_o receive_v of_o god_n and_o the_o true_a knowledge_n of_o he_o 1_o man_n be_v destitute_a of_o the_o true_a knowledge_n of_o god_n be_v most_o unhappy_a 2_o it_o be_v no_o true_a knowledge_n of_o god_n which_o agreee_v not_o with_o god_n own_o open_n of_o himself_o nor_o be_v join_v with_o true_a love_n and_o fear_n of_o god_n 3_o
