to_o such_o objection_n as_o the_o papist_n do_v or_o may_v frame_v against_o the_o same_o the_o first_o objection_n christ_n command_v to_o confess_v our_o sin_n 18.18_o when_o he_o give_v his_o priest_n authority_n to_o loose_v they_o for_o they_o can_v loose_v any_o man_n unless_o they_o first_o know_v he_o to_o be_v bind_v the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o christ_n speak_v in_o that_o place_n not_o of_o confession_n but_o of_o excommunication_n and_o discipline_n of_o the_o church_n which_o christ_n promise_v to_o ratify_v and_o approve_v in_o heaven_n so_o often_o as_o his_o minister_n shall_v execute_v the_o same_o upon_o earth_n according_a to_o his_o word_n 3.14_o which_o sense_n may_v be_v gather_v out_o of_o saint_n paul_n discourse_n as_o well_o to_o the_o

confession_n or_o once_o urge_v the_o penitent_a to_o do_v the_o same_o for_o so_o much_o the_o self_n same_o popish_a law_n teach_v no_o learned_a papist_n can_v deny_v the_o reply_n that_o confession_n which_o nectarius_n do_v abrogate_v at_o constantinople_n be_v private_a and_o not_o public_a as_o rhenanus_fw-la think_v for_o sozomenus_n cassiodorus_n and_o nicephorus_n do_v all_o three_o affirm_v joint_o that_o that_o priest_n be_v design_v over_o the_o penitent_n in_o every_o church_n who_o be_v know_v to_o be_v a_o discreet_a person_n and_o a_o keeper_n of_o secrecy_n but_o doubtless_o in_o vain_a be_v a_o keeper_n of_o secrecy_n choose_v where_o every_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v publish_v the_o answer_n the_o true_a intelligence_n of_o this_o story_n will_v bring_v great_a light_n to_o the_o whole_a matter_n of_o confession_n for_o which_o respect_n i_o will_v proceed_v so_o methodical_o in_o answer_v this_o objection_n as_o possible_o i_o can_v i_o therefore_o say_v first_o principal_a that_o nectarius_n the_o b._n of_o constantinople_n utter_o abolish_v the_o law_n make_v for_o confession_n &_o that_o to_o avoid_v the_o great_a vice_n which_o ensue_v thereupon_o which_o be_v so_o it_o must_v follow_v of_o necessity_n that_o confession_n be_v not_o command_v by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n for_o otherwise_o it_o shall_v be_v in_o man_n power_n which_o no_o wise_a man_n will_v grant_v mark_v to_o disannul_v the_o law_n of_o god_n again_o neither_o the_o holy_a b._n nectarius_n will_v ever_o have_v attempt_v so_o to_o abolish_v god_n ordinance_n neither_o will_v so_o many_o famous_a bishop_n have_v imitate_v his_o fact_n and_o yet_o be_v it_o certain_a that_o all_o the_o bishop_n of_o the_o east_n church_n do_v follow_v his_o opinion_n yea_o even_o s._n chrysostome_n 2d_o who_o succeed_v nectarius_n at_o constantinople_n that_o goodly_a patriarchall_a seat_n of_o the_o world_n so_o say_v nicephorus_n now_o for_o the_o proof_n of_o the_o principal_a point_n to_o wit_n that_o nectarius_n abandon_v confession_n simple_o and_o whole_o probation_n which_o be_v the_o point_n that_o the_o papist_n do_v and_o must_v deny_v or_o else_o forsake_v their_o popery_n i_o prove_v the_o same_o first_o by_o thomas_n waldensis_n a_o papist_n high_o renown_v among_o they_o who_o affirm_v the_o story_n so_o absolute_o as_o our_o jesuite_n bellarmine_n can_v deny_v the_o same_o &_o his_o reason_n to_o the_o contrary_a be_v ridiculous_a and_o childish_a for_o first_o 15_o he_o say_v that_o pope_n nicholas_n call_v nectarius_n y_fw-fr e_o mighty_a adversary_n of_o heretic_n and_o the_o defender_n of_o the_o church_n second_o he_o say_v that_o saint_n chrysostome_n and_o many_o other_o bishop_n approve_v nectarius_n his_o opinion_n ergo_fw-la say_v our_o jesuite_n he_o can_v never_o take_v away_o auricular_a confession_n s._n chrysostome_n and_o all_o the_o bishop_n of_o the_o east_n practise_v the_o same_o that_o nectarius_n appoint_v and_o thomas_n waldensis_n a_o zealous_a papist_n understand_v it_o of_o confession_n general_o and_o yet_o nectarius_n because_o he_o be_v a_o godly_a man_n can_v not_o abolish_v popish_a confession_n say_v our_o jesuite_n but_o i_o ween_v i_o may_v better_o conclude_v that_o because_o nectarius_n be_v a_o holy_a man_n principii_fw-la and_o see_v great_a knavery_n use_v by_o reason_n of_o confession_n to_o wit_n whoredom_n between_o the_o deacon_n and_o the_o confessionist_n therefore_o he_o just_o abolish_v that_o law_n which_o be_v only_o make_v by_o the_o power_n of_o man_n for_o our_o jesuite_n take_v that_o as_o grant_v that_o be_v in_o controversy_n which_o be_v a_o great_a fault_n in_o the_o school_n call_v petitio_fw-la principij_fw-la for_o i_o be_o so_o far_o from_o grant_v his_o auricular_a confession_n to_o be_v of_o god_n that_o i_o have_v copious_o disprove_v the_o same_o already_o i_o prove_v it_o second_o by_o the_o manifold_a testimony_n of_o s._n
