the_o authority_n thereof_o by_o the_o scripture_n therefore_o scripture_n be_v rather_o the_o ground_n of_o faith_n than_o the_o church_n i_o answer_v first_o that_o the_o proof_n of_o the_o church_n which_o be_v take_v out_o of_o scripture_n when_o we_o dispute_v against_o heretic_n be_v a_o argument_n call_v by_o philosopher_n ad_fw-la hominem_fw-la and_o it_o be_v deduce_v out_o of_o the_o premise_n already_o grant_v in_o which_o manner_n also_o the_o first_o principle_n or_o ground_n of_o every_o science_n may_v be_v prove_v and_o out_o of_o those_o thing_n also_o which_o of_o themselves_o be_v not_o very_o strong_a and_o certain_a so_o out_o of_o the_o old_a testament_n against_o the_o jew_n we_o prove_v the_o new_a testament_n albeit_o this_o also_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o our_o faith_n because_o the_o jew_n do_v admit_v and_o receive_v the_o old_a testament_n but_o not_o the_o new_a yea_o also_o even_o out_o of_o the_o jewish_a talmud_n we_o prove_v many_o thing_n against_o the_o jew_n because_o they_o admit_v and_o approve_v it_o as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o yet_o their_o talmud_n be_v not_o the_o ground_n of_o our_o faith_n because_o this_o only_a be_v as_o ●…_n say_v a_o argument_n deduce_v out_o of_o such_o thing_n as_o they_o grant_v unto_o us._n so_o in_o like_a manner_n because_o almost_o all_o heretic_n admit_v the_o scripture_n and_o reject_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n therefore_o when_o we_o dispute_v against_o they_o we_o prove_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n by_o the_o scripture_n as_o premise_n already_o grant_v by_o they_o but_o if_o we_o be_v to_o deal_v with_o infidel_n or_o other_o who_o do_v not_o admit_v the_o scripture_n than_o the_o say_v scripture_n be_v to_o be_v prove_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n and_o not_o contrariwise_o for_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n far_o better_o and_o more_o common_o know_v that_o there_o 10._o be_v a_o church_n then_o that_o there_o be_v the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o afterward_o we_o will_v show_v more_o clear_o 6._o second_o i_o answer_v that_o there_o be_v so_o great_a connexion_n betwixt_o the_o scripture_n and_o the_o church_n that_o the_o scripture_n may_v very_o well_o be_v prove_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n and_o again_o the_o church_n by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o scripture_n neither_o shall_v this_o seem_v strange_a to_o our_o adversary_n for_o logician_n also_o know_v very_o well_o that_o that_o which_o by_o it_o own_o nature_n be_v more_o certain_a &_o better_o know_v may_v be_v prove_v by_o that_o which_o be_v more_o certain_a and_o better_o know_v unto_o we_o by_o a_o demonstration_n call_v by_o they_o à_fw-la posteriori_fw-la and_o contrary_a wise_a that_o which_o be_v better_o know_v unto_o we_o may_v be_v prove_v by_o that_o which_o be_v better_o know_v and_o more_o certain_a in_o his_o own_o nature_n by_o a_o demonstration_n call_v à_fw-la priori_fw-la so_o the_o cause_n be_v prove_v by_o the_o effect_n &_o the_o effect_n by_o the_o cause_n as_o fyte_n be_v prove_v by_o heat_n à_fw-la posteriori_fw-la and_o heat_n by_o the_o nature_n of_o fire_n à_fw-la priori_fw-la so_o in_o like_a manner_n by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n the_o which_o in_o regard_n of_o we_o be_v more_o certain_a and_o better_o know_v we_o prove_v the_o scripture_n as_o it_o be_v à_fw-fr posteriorl_n and_o by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o scripture_n which_o in_o it_o own_o nature_n be_v more_o certain_a we_o prove_v the_o true_a church_n of_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v à_fw-fr priori_fw-la 7._o the_o four_o argument_n s._n paul_n testify_v that_o the_o church_n be_v support_v by_o the_o ground_n and_o foundation_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n that_o be_v tosay_v by_o their_o prophetical_a and_o apostolical_a doctrine_n but_o if_o the_o foresay_a doctrine_n be_v the_o ground_n of_o the_o church_n it_o necessary_o follow_v that_o this_o doctrine_n appear_v to_o be_v certain_a in_o itself_o before_o the_o church_n begin_v to_o be_v the_o church_n therefore_o must_v be_v that_o which_o give_v certainty_n to_o the_o doctrine_n or_o write_n of_o the_o apostle_n but_o rather_o their_o doctrine_n and_o write_n do_v afford_v sufficient_a certainty_n to_o the_o church_n so_o calvin_n 20._o i_o answer_v first_o if_o we_o will_v follow_v the_o intemrpretation_n of_o this_o place_n allege_v by_o beza_n calvin_n argument_n will_v be_v nothing_o worth_a for_o beza_n will_v have_v this_o to_o be_v the_o sense_n of_o those_o word_n that_o the_o church_n be_v build_v upon_o christ_n who_o be_v the_o ground_n and_o foundation_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o prophet_n and_o he_o will_v have_v only_a christ_n to_o be_v the_o groundwork_n and_o the_o apostle_n and_o prophet_n he_o say_v be_v only_o as_o the_o architect_n and_o builder_n of_o this_o church_n as_o also_o all_o faithful_a minister_n of_o christ_n be_v at_o this_o day_n but_o not_o the_o ground_n itself_o beza_n also_o add_v that_o he_o be_v true_o antichrist_n who_o attribute_v that_o unto_o himself_o which_o belong_v only_o to_o christ_n that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o be_v the_o ground_n and_o foundation_n of_o the_o church_n 8._o out_o of_o which_o doctrine_n of_o beza_n it_o follow_v manifest_o that_o calvin_n be_v true_o antichrist_n for_o he_o attribute_v unto_o all_o minister_n citato_fw-la of_o the_o church_n and_o to_o their_o doctrine_n and_o consequent_o unto_o himself_o and_o his_o own_o doctrine_n that_o they_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o the_o church_n but_o according_a to_o beza_n whosoever_o attribute_v this_o unto_o himself_o be_v plain_o antichrist_n because_o he_o attribute_v that_o unto_o himself_o which_o only_o belong_v unto_o christ._n 9_o second_o i_o answer_v that_o yet_o whatsoever_o beza_n say_v calvin_n exposition_n be_v the_o ephes._n true_a agree_v therein_o with_o s._n chrysostome_n s._n augustine_n theophilact_n and_o other_o ancient_a father_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o s._n paul_n in_o this_o place_n call_v the_o apostle_n and_o prophet_n the_o ground_n and_o foundation_n of_o faith_n or_o that_o which_o be_v all_o one_o their_o doctrine_n for_o in_o the_o same_o place_n he_o compare_v christ_n to_o the_o chief_a coner_fw-la stone_n and_o the_o foundation_n of_o this_o spiritual_a building_n do_v consist_v of_o many_o stone_n but_o there_o be_v one_o low_a and_o chief_a to_o wit_n christ_n jesus_n who_o support_v all_o and_o who_o be_v that_o cornerstone_n which_o unit_v 14._o the_o jew_n and_o gentill_n together_o as_o s._n paul_n say_v in_o the_o same_o chapter_n 10._o hence_o it_o be_v that_o s._n john_n in_o the_o 14._o apocalypse_n affirm_v that_o this_o heavenly_a city_n have_v twelve_o foundation_n and_o not_o only_o one_o and_o christ_n notwithstanding_o be_v the_o chief_a of_o all_o the_o foundation_n and_o the_o foundation_n of_o foundation_n as_o s._n augustine_n initio_fw-la say_v that_o be_v to_o say_v of_o all_o those_o twelve_o foundation_n he_o be_v the_o foundation_n 11._o and_o here_o the_o apostle_n use_v the_o hebrew_n phrase_n in_o which_o it_o be_v all_o one_o to_o say_v upon_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o prophet_n &_o to_o say_v upon_o the_o apostolical_a and_o prophetical_a foundation_n for_o the_o hebrew_n often_o use_v the_o genitive_n case_n of_o the_o substantive_a 7._o for_o the_o adjective_n as_o a_o man_n of_o blood_n &_o deceit_n in_o the_o five_o psalm_n signify_v a_o bloody_a and_o deceitful_a man_n 12._o furthermore_o that_o which_o calvin_n say_v that_o the_o apostolical_a and_o prophetical_a doctrine_n have_v it_o certainty_n of_o itself_o before_o the_o approbation_n of_o the_o church_n that_o indeed_o be_v true_a but_o this_o be_v the_o certainty_n which_o it_o have_v of_o it_o own_o nature_n from_o god_n himself_o but_o in_o regard_n of_o we_o it_o receive_v 19_o it_o certainty_n from_o the_o church_n as_o calvin_n and_o beza_n witness_n &_o as_o we_o have_v already_o declare_v 13._o but_o calvin_n err_v in_o this_o that_o he_o think_v s._n paul_n to_o treat_v in_o this_o place_n of_o the_o scripture_n only_o of_o the_o apostle_n and_o prophet_n for_o not_o only_o the_o apostolical_a scripture_n be_v the_o ground_n of_o our_o faith_n but_o all_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o few_o of_o the_o twelve_o apostle_n to_o wit_n only_o five_o have_v write_v any_o thing_n but_o of_o the_o other_o seven_o there_o be_v no_o write_n extant_a but_o yet_o they_o all_o teach_v the_o apostle_n therefore_o speak_v of_o the_o apostolical_a doctrine_n and_o not_o only_o of_o the_o scripture_n 14._o but_o neither_o do_v we_o deny_v that_o faith_n depend_v of_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n yea_o more_o than_o that_o we_o say_v that_o our_o faith_n depend_v of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o present_a church_n for_o when_o we_o affirm_v that_o the_o 17._o church_n be_v the_o ground_n of_o our_o
