that_o christ_n interpret_v god_n word_n but_o not_o the_o word_n of_o man_n second_o that_o in_o interpret_n that_o which_o be_v of_o he_o else_o he_o do_v in_o effect_n interpret_v the_o whole_a

the_o pure_a word_n of_o god_n without_o the_o mixture_n of_o man_n word_n be_v this_o possible_a to_o be_v do_v remig._n it_o be_v not_o only_o possible_a but_o very_o easy_a to_o be_v do_v i_o prove_v it_o first_o because_o the_o gospel_n which_o be_v 17._o the_o whole_a new_a testament_n be_v contain_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n for_o saint_n paul_n plain_o testify_v that_o he_o be_v set_v apart_o to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n of_o god_n which_o he_o afore_o have_v promise_v by_o his_o prophet_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n second_o because_o the_o same_o apostle_n constant_o avouch_v to_o 27._o the_o elder_n of_o ephesus_n that_o he_o have_v show_v to_o they_o all_o the_o council_n of_o god_n three_o because_o the_o self_n same_o apostle_n affirm_v in_o a_o other_o

both_o to_o small_a and_o to_o great_a say_v none_o other_o thing_n than_o those_o which_o the_o prophet_n &_o moses_n do_v say_v shall_v come_v to_o pass_v four_o because_o saint_n 15._o paul_n testify_v to_o young_a timothy_n that_o he_o kn●w_v the_o holy_a scripture_n of_o a_o child_n which_o be_v able_a to_o make_v he_o wise_a unto_o salvation_n through_o the_o faith_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n by_o these_o testimony_n and_o authority_n two_o thing_n be_v clear_v the_o one_o that_o all_o the_o book_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n deliver_v by_o moses_n to_o the_o jew_n be_v

for_o he_o teach_v all_o the_o council_n of_o god_n which_o be_v all_o the_o doctrine_n of_o all_o the_o rest_n in_o substance_n be_v contain_v in_o moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n and_o this_o be_v

that_o agrippa_n believe_v the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n and_o commend_v he_o for_o the_o same_o i_o therefore_o conclude_v that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n itself_o do_v prove_v itself_o to_o be_v canonical_a and_o the_o pure_a word_n of_o god_n theoph._n the_o papist_n say_v that_o we_o receive_v both_o the_o old_a 369._o and_o new_a testament_n from_o they_o and_o not_o from_o the_o jew_n remig._n i_o answer_v first_o that_o the_o primitive_a and_o apostolical_a church_n receive_v the_o old_a testament_n from_o the_o jew_n and_o that_o the_o apostle_n be_v only_o the_o publisher_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n not_o of_o the_o old_a second_o that_o we_o believe_v the_o old_a testament_n to_o be_v canonical_a scripture_n neither_o for_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o jew_n though_o they_o deliver_v it_o and_o be_v the_o publisher_n thereof_o neither_o yet_o for_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n or_o of_o any_o other_o church_n in_o the_o christian_a world_n three_o that_o we_o believe_v it_o to_o be_v the_o pure_a word_n of_o god_n and_o canonical_a scripture_n because_o christ_n so_o pronounce_v of_o it_o long_o before_o the_o apostle_n be_v confirm_v
