have_v nor_o do_v it_o prejudice_n this_o consequence_n that_o in_o many_o place_n we_o behold_v the_o company_n of_o these_o biblist_n very_o quiet_a &_o in_o some_o order_n amoung_a themselves_o as_o lutheran_n in_o saxony_n &_o protestant_n in_o england_n for_o this_o proceed_v because_o that_o the_o promiscuous_a multitude_n of_o biblist_n in_o these_o place_n give_v credit_n to_o their_o minister_n or_o be_v constrain_v to_o keep_v quarter_n by_o the_o augustane_n confession_n or_o by_o the_o statute_n of_o a_o parliament_n which_o none_o for_o fear_n of_o punishment_n dare_v open_o call_v in_o doubt_n &_o for_o this_o cause_n there_o be_v very_o few_o who_o consult_v the_o holy_a ghost_n out_o of_o the_o scripture_n have_v courage_n to_o censure_v whether_o the_o doctrine_n propound_v they_o to_o believe_v by_o minister_n or_o by_o the_o augustane_n confession_n or_o by_o the_o statute_n of_o a_o parliament_n do_v cohere_v with_o the_o word_n of_o god_n or_o disagree_v from_o the_o same_o they_o have_v rather_o incur_v guiltienes_n of_o conscience_n than_o a_o proemunire_n but_o indeed_o to_o be_v plain_a while_o these_o biblist_n not_o first_o consult_v the_o holy_a ghost_n out_o of_o their_o bible_n do_v out_o of_o negligence_n or_o fear_n give_v credit_n to_o their_o parson_n or_o to_o parliament_n edict_n or_o such_o like_a statute_n concern_v matter_n of_o faithtt_n be_v impossible_a for_o they_o to_o have_v any_o true_a faith_n in_o regard_n they_o find_v their_o faith_n upon_o they_o who_o may_v err_v in_o faith_n for_o minister_n bishop_n
