A45831	Rome is no rule, or, An answer to an epistle published by a Roman Catholic who stiles himself Cap. Robert Everard and may serve for an answer to two Popish treatises, the one entituled The question of questions, and the other Fiat lux, out of which books the arguments urged in the said epistle against the authority of the Scriptures and the infallibility of the Roman Church are collected : in which answer, the authority of the Scriptures is vindicated and the arguments for the Roman infallibility refuted / by J.I.	Ives, Jeremiah, fl. 1653-1674.	1664 (1664)	Wing I1103B; ESTC R41015	38,546	134

the_o sense_n of_o the_o counsel_n by_o which_o you_o understand_v what_o doctrine_n be_v catholic_n and_o what_o exposition_n of_o scripture_n be_v true_a and_o what_o be_v false_a then_o i_o demand_v four_o how_o do_v you_o believe_v with_o a_o divine_a faith_n that_o what_o this_o private_a priest_n teach_v be_v according_a to_o the_o infallible_a doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n since_o he_o be_v a_o man_n and_o may_v err_v and_o so_o teach_v his_o own_o private_a opinion_n for_o the_o infallible_a doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n five_o whether_o you_o may_v not_o be_v more_o subject_a to_o mis-understand_a the_o scripture_n either_o by_o the_o error_n of_o the_o priest_n in_o preach_v or_o the_o frailty_n of_o your_o understanding_n in_o hear_v than_o other_o be_v in_o the_o read_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o if_o so_o why_o shall_v you_o say_v the_o scripture_n be_v no_o guide_n because_o they_o may_v be_v misinterpret_v for_o shame_n forbear_v to_o blame_v the_o use_n of_o a_o thing_n because_o of_o the_o abuse_n of_o it_o what_o if_o some_o be_v to_o blame_v in_o that_o they_o have_v wrest_v the_o scripture_n to_o serve_v their_o own_o interest_n be_v not_o you_o more_o to_o blame_v to_o wound_v these_o man_n through_o the_o side_n of_o the_o scripture_n what_o if_o as_o one_o well_o observe_v that_o some_o be_v blind_a and_o miss_v their_o way_n and_o other_o be_v drink_v and_o stagger_v out_o of_o it_o must_v we_o all_o conspire_v to_o wish_v the_o sun_n out_o of_o the_o firmament_n that_o we_o may_v follow_v a_o will_n with_o a_o wisp_n and_o yet_o this_o be_v your_o kind_n of_o reason_v that_o because_o some_o be_v perverse_a and_o froward_a and_o other_o be_v full_a of_o darkness_n prejudice_n and_o corrupt_a affection_n by_o which_o they_o can_v perfect_o and_o infallible_o judge_v of_o every_o truth_n that_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o scripture_n therefore_o they_o must_v throw_v away_o the_o bless_a word_n of_o god_n from_o be_v their_o rule_n and_o guide_v you_o proceed_v in_o p._n 18._o and_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o three_o reason_n which_o you_o think_v be_v forcible_a be_v that_o those_o who_o be_v thus_o far_o for_o sole_a scripture_n do_v not_o say_v that_o one_o or_o any_o particular_a number_n of_o the_o book_n of_o scripture_n but_o all_o scripture_n write_v by_o inspiration_n of_o god_n do_v be_v join_v together_o make_v up_o this_o rule_n and_o judge_n hence_o you_o say_v you_o conclude_v that_o if_o any_o of_o these_o book_n be_v lose_v this_o rule_n be_v not_o perfect_a now_o that_o many_o of_o these_o book_n be_v lose_v you_o say_v you_o prove_v from_o those_o that_o remain_v num._n 21.14_o the_o book_n of_o the_o war_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o this_o you_o say_v be_v lose_v it_o be_v say_v of_o solomon_n 1_o king_n 4.3_o 2._o that_o he_o speak_v 3000_o proverb_n and_o his_o song_n be_v 1000_o and_o 5_o you_o conceive_v you_o say_v that_o upon_o a_o just_a reckon_n some_o of_o these_o will_v be_v want_v we_o find_v name_v 2_o chron._n 9.29_o the_o book_n of_o nathan_n the_o prophet_n the_o prophecy_n of_o ahijah_n and_o the_o vision_n of_o iddo_n these_o you_o say_v be_v lose_v as_o also_o those_o name_v 1_o chron._n 29.29_o the_o book_n of_o samuel_n the_o book_n of_o nathan_n the_o book_n of_o goda_n and_o it_o be_v clear_a from_o mat._n 27.9_o that_o part_n of_o jeremy_n be_v lose_v so_o also_o from_o mat._n 2.23_o where_o it_o be_v foretell_v that_o christ_n shall_v be_v call_v a_o nazaren_a and_o 1_o cor._n 5.9_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o epistle_n which_o our_o canon_n call_v st._n paul_n first_o epistle_n be_v not_o true_o his_o first_o for_o there_o he_o say_v i_o write_v to_o you_o in_o a_o epistle_n not_o to_o keep_v company_n with_o fornicatour_n st._n paul_n also_o write_v a_o epistle_n from_o laodicea_n and_o yet_o you_o say_v you_o do_v not_o find_v this_o epistle_n in_o answer_n hereunto_o i_o can_v but_o take_v notice_n that_o you_o say_v you_o think_v this_o answer_n be_v forcible_a but_o where_o be_v your_o mother_n that_o she_o do_v not_o enable_v you_o to_o say_v you_o be_v sure_a it_o be_v forcible_a but_o let_v we_o see_v wherein_o this_o force_n lie_v you_o say_v protestant_n do_v not_o believe_v a_o certain_a number_n of_o book_n to_o be_v their_o guide_n but_o all_o the_o scripture_n write_v by_o inspiration_n from_o god_n make_v up_o this_o rule_n and_o guide_n and_o many_o of_o these_o book_n be_v lose_v therefore_o this_o rule_n be_v not_o perfect_a i_o answer_v first_o that_o the_o law_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v perfect_a and_o every_o word_n of_o god_n be_v pure_a and_o therefore_o there_o can_v be_v no_o imperfection_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o second_o how_o do_v it_o appear_v that_o any_o of_o those_o book_n which_o you_o say_v be_v lose_v have_v a_o divine_a image_n and_o superscription_n upon_o they_o or_o that_o they_o that_o do_v write_v they_o we●e_v inspire_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o the_o write_n of_o those_o particular_a book_n for_o it_o be_v very_o possible_a that_o they_o write_v many_o thing_n upon_o particular_a occasion_n as_o hezekiah_n write_v to_o ephraim_n and_o that_o sometime_o their_o writing_n be_v of_o no_o more_o inspiration_n from_o heaven_n than_o david_n letter_n be_v that_o he_o send_v to_o joab_n by_o uriah_n or_o than_o peter_n practice_n for_o which_o paul_n withstand_v he_o to_o the_o face_n but_o three_o what_o infallible_a reason_n have_v you_o to_o prove_v that_o these_o say_n recite_v out_o of_o these_o scripture_n may_v not_o refer_v to_o the_o book_n of_o samuel_n and_o the_o king_n which_o we_o have_v extant_a rather_o than_o to_o any_o book_n that_o be_v lose_v four_o how_o do_v you_o know_v that_o those_o writing_n however_o the_o penman_n be_v inspire_v be_v intend_v by_o god_n for_o the_o perpetual_a use_n of_o his_o church_n in_o all_o age_n five_o how_o do_v you_o infallible_o know_v that_o all_o the_o canon_n or_o your_o church_n even_o of_o those_o which_o you_o say_v be_v necessary_a to_o salvation_n be_v preserve_v and_o that_o some_o very_a material_a thing_n be_v not_o lose_v six_o if_o you_o say_v there_o be_v none_o lose_v then_o whether_o you_o do_v not_o make_v god_n in_o his_o wise_a providence_n more_o careful_a to_o preserve_v entire_a and_o unmaimed_a the_o canon_n of_o your_o counsel_n than_o he_o have_v be_v to_o preserve_v the_o write_n of_o his_o holy_a prophet_n and_o apostle_n and_o if_o you_o suppose_v any_o of_o the_o decree_n of_o your_o counsel_n have_v be_v lose_v or_o maim_v then_o how_o do_v you_o know_v infallible_o whether_o some_o that_o be_v lose_v be_v not_o as_o material_a as_o those_o you_o have_v thus_o the_o edge_n of_o your_o sword_n be_v turn_v against_o yourself_o but_o seven_o if_o any_o of_o the_o book_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v lose_v that_o be_v by_o god_n intend_v for_o the_o perpetual_a use_n of_o that_o church_n to_o who_o his_o oracle_n be_v commit_v how_o then_o can_v you_o say_v that_o the_o church_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v infallible_a since_o she_o fail_v in_o that_o trust_n that_o be_v commit_v to_o she_o viz._n the_o keep_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o if_o this_o be_v not_o a_o fail_n in_o she_o in_o that_o she_o lose_v part_n of_o the_o scripture_n than_o she_o have_v not_o fail_v if_o she_o have_v lose_v all_o and_o than_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v a_o sole_a guide_n that_o they_o be_v no_o guide_n at_o all_o for_o if_o they_o be_v a_o guide_n and_o a_o direct_a in_o any_o sense_n or_o if_o they_o be_v of_o any_o divine_a use_n than_o it_o must_v be_v a_o error_n either_o of_o ignorance_n or_o wilfulness_n to_o suffer_v they_o to_o be_v lose_v or_o maim_v eight_o whereas_o you_o say_v that_o the_o epistle_n of_o st._n paul_n which_o your_o canon_n call_v the_o first_o to_o the_o corinthian_n be_v not_o true_o his_o first_o i_o answer_v then_o your_o canon_n do_v false_o call_v it_o the_o first_o and_o then_o how_o shall_v we_o believe_v when_o your_o canon_n be_v true_a you_o have_v best_o tell_v your_o mother_n she_o lie_v as_o soon_o as_o you_o can_v speak_v and_o then_o show_v a_o reason_n for_o it_o by_o tell_v she_o that_o st._n paul_n say_v he_o write_v to_o the_o corinthian_n a_o epistle_n before_o ergo_fw-la there_o be_v a_o epistle_n before_o that_o which_o your_o canon_n call_v the_o first_o but_o chrysostome_n understand_v it_o of_o the_o word_n go_v before_o wherein_o he_o have_v charge_v they_o to_o deliver_v the_o incestuous_a person_n to_o satan_n and_o to_o purge_v out_o the_o old_a leaven_n and_o that_o you_o may_v see_v how_o little_a cause_n you_o have_v
