all_o man_n that_o be_v learn_v in_o the_o tongue_n can_v testify_v in_o how_o corrupt_a a_o latin_a translation_n they_o have_v keep_v the_o scripture_n both_o of_o the_o old_a and_o of_o the_o new_a

common_o know_v to_o be_v the_o church_n of_o antichrist_n do_v not_o as_o well_o corrupt_a the_o text_n of_o the_o testament_n as_o the_o true_a religion_n contain_v therein_o first_o because_o she_o can_v not_o the_o copy_n thereof_o be_v so_o many_o by_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n disperse_v throughout_o the_o world_n second_o because_o she_o think_v it_o not_o so_o needful_a have_v other_o mean_n to_o work_v her_o devilish_a devise_n for_o although_o she_o can_v not_o corrupt_v the_o scripture_n yet_o it_o make_v the_o less_o matter_n because_o she_o find_v mean_n to_o diminish_v and_o control_v the_o authority_n thereof_o by_o advance_v decree_n of_o man_n pope_n and_o counsel_n to_o be_v equal_a or_o of_o great_a authority_n than_o the_o scripture_n three_o because_o she_o will_v be_v less_o in_o fear_n to_o be_v reprove_v by_o the_o scripture_n she_o provide_v that_o the_o knowledge_n thereof_o shall_v be_v hide_v from_o the_o unlearned_a people_n by_o a_o strange_a tongue_n and_o from_o the_o learned_a by_o the_o tedious_a maze_n of_o question_n devise_v by_o her_o canonist_n and_o sententiary_n four_o because_o she_o submit_v all_o interpretation_n of_o the_o scripture_n to_o her_o own_o judgement_n and_o therefore_o will_v not_o be_v control_v by_o the_o judgement_n thereof_o but_o will_v always_o expound_v it_o as_o it_o like_v she_o best_o as_o appear_v by_o ockam_n and_o duns_n who_o though_o they_o confess_v that_o transubstantiation_n seem_v to_o they_o contrary_a to_o the_o scripture_n and_o reason_n yet_o they_o believe_v it_o because_o of_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n and_o for_o none_o other_o cause_n these_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o romish_a church_n do_v not_o as_o well_o corrupt_a the_o text_n of_o the_o testament_n as_o the_o true_a religion_n and_o yet_o how_o corrupt_a that_o latin_a translation_n be_v which_o they_o will_v needs_o thrust_v upon_o we_o be_v sufficient_o know_v to_o all_o learned_a man_n even_o in_o such_o text_n as_o be_v the_o most_o coulerable_a place_n for_o the_o defence_n of_o popish_a doctrine_n i_o will_v geve_v one_o example_n for_o all_o they_o allege_v the_o text_n 1._o cor._n 10._o qui_fw-la stat_fw-la videat_fw-la ne_fw-la cadat_fw-la he_o that_o stand_v let_v he_o take_v heed_n he_o fall_v not_o against_o the_o certainty_n of_o faith_n whereas_o the_o greek_a have_v not_o he_o that_o stand_v but_o he_o that_o think_v he_o stand_v let_v he_o take_v heed_n he_o fall_v not_o thus_o the_o popish_a church_n can_v altogether_o excuse_v herself_o from_o corrupt_v of_o the_o text_n of_o the_o testament_n whether_o it_o be_v of_o fraud_n or_o of_o ignorance_n or_o of_o negligence_n the_o lord_n know_v 2_o show_v i_o why_o she_o keep_v not_o so_o safe_o and_o faithful_o the_o true_a sense_n of_o god_n his_o word_n as_o she_o preserve_v the_o word_n itself_o because_o it_o be_v against_o she_o own_o estimation_n and_o profit_n which_o be_v the_o chief_a end_n for_o which_o popish_a prelate_n maintain_v popish_a religion_n take_v away_o the_o pope_n prerogative_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o sense_n of_o god_n his_o word_n down_o go_v cardinal_n

clergy_n and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o the_o popish_a church_n keep_v not_o so_o safe_o and_o faithful_o the_o true_a sense_n of_o god_n his_o word_n as_o she_o preserve_v the_o word_n itself_o although_o she_o preserve_v not_o the_o word_n itself_o in_o such_o safety_n as_o become_v the_o church_n of_o christ_n 3_o show_v i_o why_o we_o shall_v believe_v the_o papist_n as_o you_o term_v they_o for_o the_o word_n itself_o and_o rather_o you_o protestant_n than_o they_o for_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o word_n we_o do_v not_o challenge_v credit_n to_o ourselves_o in_o any_o point_n so_o presumptuous_o as_o the_o papist_n that_o man_n must_v believe_v it_o because_o we_o affirm_v it_o but_o because_o we_o prove_v it_o to_o be_v true_a by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o for_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o word_n you_o shall_v believe_v we_o rather_o than_o they_o because_o our_o ground_n &_o proof_n be_v better_a than_o they_o or_o else_o we_o require_v not_o to_o be_v believe_v better_a than_o they_o 4_o show_v i_o why_o you_o believe_v our_o church_n tell_v you_o this_o to_o be_v god_n his_o book_n &_o will_v not_o credit_v she_o avouch_v this_o to_o be_v the_o true_a and_o undoubted_a sense_n of_o the_o same_o book_n if_o we_o have_v no_o better_a ground_n to_o persuade_v we_o of_o the_o authority_n of_o god_n his_o book_n than_o the_o testimony_n of_o your_o church_n you_o may_v be_v sure_a we_o will_v not_o believe_v it_o but_o because_o we_o have_v most_o steadfast_a assurance_n of_o god_n his_o spirit_n for_o the_o authority_n of_o that_o book_n with_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o true_a church_n in_o all_o age_n if_o you_o say_v it_o be_v god_n his_o book_n we_o believe_v you_o not_o because_o you_o say_v so_o but_o because_o we_o know_v it_o to_o be_v true_a but_o if_o you_o bring_v out_o a_o false_a sense_n we_o believe_v you_o not_o because_o we_o know_v it_o to_o be_v false_a &_o be_v able_a to_o prove_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o be_v plain_a with_o you_o we_o geve_v as_o much_o credit_n to_o your_o church_n as_o to_o the_o

thy_o foot_n against_o a_o stone_n we_o believe_v that_o this_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o when_o he_o avouch_v this_o to_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o it_o that_o we_o may_v cast_v down_o ourselves_o from_o a_o church_n steeple_n without_o danger_n we_o do_v not_o believe_v he_o because_o we_o know_v this_o sense_n be_v contrary_a to_o a_o other_o scripture_n which_o say_v thou_o shall_v not_o tempt_v the_o lord_n thy_o god._n so_o when_o you_o say_v these_o word_n be_v the_o scripture_n of_o god_n this_o be_v my_o body_n we_o believe_v it_o because_o we_o know_v it_o to_o

to_o all_o place_n of_o scripture_n which_o prove_v the_o truth_n of_o christ_n his_o humanity_n or_o natural_a body_n thus_o i_o show_v you_o why_o we_o believe_v you_o if_o you_o say_v the_o

mighty_o overthrow_v these_o foresay_a sect_n and_o other_o of_o all_o sort_n i_o recant_v it_o have_v be_v already_o prove_v sufficient_o that_o the_o true_a catholic_a church_n which_o be_v lead_v only_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n as_o a_o most_o infallible_a rule_n have_v overthrow_v heresy_n of_o all_o sort_n but_o the_o popish_a church_n which_o refuse_v the_o only_a weapon_n by_o which_o

that_o which_o have_v exercise_v by_o christ_n appointment_n discipline_n upon_o offender_n in_o all_o degree_n only_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n by_o christ_n appointment_n have_v exercise_v true_a

concern_v excommunication_n she_o have_v practise_v it_o according_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o against_o such_o offender_n as_o the_o scripture_n judge_v worthy_a of_o that_o severe_a punishment_n as_o for_o degradation_n and_o suspension_n it_o may_v be_v doubt_v what_o you_o mean_v by_o they_o if_o you_o understand_v by_o degradation_n that_o such_o person_n as_o the_o church_n have_v try_v unmeet_a either_o for_o doctrine_n or_o manner_n to_o execute_v the_o office_n of_o preach_v and_o minister_a the_o sacrament_n she_o have_v displace_v and_o reject_v from_o that_o
