A00791	An answer to a pamphlet, intituled: The Fisher catched in his owne net In vvhich, by the vvay, is shevved, that the Protestant Church was not so visible, in al ages, as the true Church ought to be: and consequently, is not the true Church. Of which, men may learne infallible faith, necessarie to saluation. By A.C.	A.

a_o paper_n show_v brief_o and_o plain_o how_o the_o true_a visible_a church_n of_o christ_n must_v be_v so_o visible_a in_o all_o age_n as_o that_o the_o name_n of_o some_o principal_a member_n thereof_o in_o every_o age_n may_v be_v show_v out_o of_o good_a author_n a_o true_a copy_n of_o which_o paper_n i_o think_v fit_a here_o to_o set_v down_o in_o regard_v it_o may_v serve_v other_o as_o well_o as_o this_o old_a gentleman_n to_o understand_v why_o catholic_n do_v ordinary_o so_o much_o press_v protestant_n to_o name_n if_o they_o can_v protestant_n professor_n in_o all_o age_n as_o catholic_n do_v in_o print_a book_n ordinary_o set_v down_o a_o catalogue_n of_o the_o name_n of_o the_o chief_a pastor_n and_o other_o principal_a member_n of_o the_o catholic_a roman_a church_n in_o all_o age_n a_o copy_n of_o the_o first_o paper_n which_o m._n fisher_n write_v and_o deliver_v to_o the_o old_a gentleman_n before_o the_o meeting_n 1._o it_o be_v certain_a there_o be_v one_o and_o but_o one_o true_a infallible_a 11._o faith_n without_o which_o none_o can_v please_v god_n nor_o consequent_o attain_v eternal_a salnation_n 2._o this_o one_o infallible_a faith_n can_v be_v have_v according_a to_o the_o ordinary_a course_n of_o god_n providence_n but_o 11._o by_o hear_v preacher_n and_o pastor_n of_o the_o true_a visible_a church_n who_o only_o be_v lawful_o send_v and_o authorize_v to_o teach_v the_o true_a word_n of_o god_n 3._o as_o therefore_o this_o one_o infallible_a faith_n have_v be_v and_o must_v be_v in_o all_o age_n so_o there_o must_v needs_o be_v in_o all_o age_n preacher_n and_o pastor_n of_o the_o true_a visible_a 11._o church_n of_o who_o all_o sort_n of_o people_n have_v in_o time_n past_a as_o appear_v by_o history_n learned_a and_o must_v in_o all_o future_a time_n learn_v the_o say_v infallible_a truth_n 4._o hence_o follow_v that_o if_o protestant_n be_v the_o true_a visible_a church_n of_o christ_n all_o sort_n of_o man_n who_o in_o every_o age_n have_v have_v the_o aforesaid_a infallible_a faith_n have_v learn_v it_o by_o hear_v protestant_n preacher_n who_o name_n may_v yet_o be_v find_v in_o history_n as_o the_o name_n of_o those_o be_v find_v who_o in_o every_o former_a age_n do_v teach_v and_o convert_v people_n of_o several_a nation_n unto_o the_o faith_n of_o christ._n 5._o hence_o further_o follow_v that_o if_o there_o can_v as_o there_o can_v be_v find_v in_o history_n name_n of_o protestant_a preacher_n who_o in_o all_o age_n do_v teach_v all_o sort_n of_o faithful_a people_n and_o who_o convert_v several_a nation_n unto_o the_o christian_a faith_n hence_o follow_v i_o say_v that_o protestant_n be_v not_o the_o true_a visible_a church_n of_o christ_n neither_o be_v their_o preacher_n lawful_o send_v or_o sufficient_o authorize_v to_o teach_v nor_o people_n secure_o warrant_v to_o learn_v of_o they_o that_o one_o infallible_a faith_n without_o which_o none_o can_v possible_o please_v god_n nor_o if_o they_o so_o live_v and_o die_v be_v save_v if_o any_o protestant_n will_v answer_v let_v he_o set_v down_o name_n of_o protestant_a preacher_n in_o all_o age_n who_o teach_v people_n protestant_n doctrine_n in_o every_o several_a age_n or_o confess_v there_o be_v no_o such_o before_o luther_n or_o at_o least_o not_o in_o all_o age_n to_o be_v find_v in_o history_n after_o this_o m._n fisher_n let_v the_o old_a gentleman_n see_v a_o little_a print_a book_n in_o which_o be_v a_o catalogue_n of_o visible_a roman_a professor_n in_o all_o age_n wish_v he_o to_o urge_v his_o minister_n to_o show_v if_o they_o can_v a_o like_a catalogue_n of_o their_o protestant_a professor_n and_o it_o be_v very_o likely_a that_o this_o book_n as_o also_o the_o foresay_a paper_n be_v by_o this_o old_a gentleman_n carry_v to_o sir_n humphrey_n from_o who_o about_o two_o or_o three_o day_n before_o the_o meeting_n a_o paper_n be_v send_v to_o m._n fisher_n contain_v the_o former_a question_n and_o another_o like_a question_n propose_v to_o he_o to_o dispute_v upon_o the_o content_n whereof_o be_v as_o follow_v the_o question_n propose_v by_o m._n fisher_n in_o which_o he_o undertake_v to_o maintain_v the_o negative_a be_v set_v down_o by_o he_o in_o haec_fw-la verba_fw-la whether_o the_o protestant_a church_n be_v in_o all_o age_n visible_a especial_o in_o the_o age_n go_v before_o luther_n and_o whether_o the_o name_n of_o such_o visible_a protestant_n in_o all_o age_n can_v be_v show_v and_o prove_v out_o of_o good_a author_n to_o this_o universal_a demand_n require_v rather_o a_o historical_a large_a volume_n then_o syllogical_a brief_a dispute_n we_o answer_v that_o although_o 1._o divine_a infallible_a faith_n be_v not_o build_v upon_o deduction_n

produce_v the_o name_n of_o man_n of_o their_o profession_n in_o all_o age_n since_o christ_n whereas_o roman_a catholic_n in_o their_o print_a book_n ordinary_o set_v down_o the_o name_n of_o their_o
