when_o he_o be_v though_o he_o can_v not_o be_v before_o he_o be_v so_o there_o may_v be_v a_o true_a church_n after_o luther_n though_o there_o be_v none_o for_o some_o age_n before_o he_o as_o since_o columbus_n his_o time_n there_o have_v be_v christian_n in_o america_n though_o there_o be_v none_o for_o many_o age_n before_o for_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o nothing_o but_o a_o

the_o only_a christian_n in_o the_o world_n before_o luther_n when_o the_o whole_a world_n know_v that_o this_o be_v but_o talk_n and_o that_o there_o be_v other_o christian_n beside_o the_o papist_n that_o may_v have_v perpetuate_v the_o church_n though_o there_o have_v not_o be_v then_o one_o papist_n in_o be_v for_o sure_o there_o be_v a_o catholic_n church_n before_o the_o roman_a one_o next_o the_o papist_n say_v to_o hold_v that_o the_o visible_a church_n be_v not_o perpetual_a be_v a_o heresy_n so_o that_o luther_n reformation_n be_v but_o particular_a and_o not_o universal_a nor_o but_o of_o late_a date_n it_o can_v have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o the_o visible_a and_o perpetual_a church_n which_o the_o protestant_n answer_v thus_o to_o say_v the_o visible_a church_n be_v not_o perpetual_a be_v proper_o a_o heresy_n but_o the_o papist_n can_v deny_v but_o that_o the_o apostle_n who_o preach_v the_o gospel_n in_o the_o beginning_n do_v believe_v the_o church_n universal_a though_o their_o preach_v at_o the_o beginning_n be_v not_o so_o so_o luther_n also_o may_v well_o believe_v the_o universal_a church_n though_o his_o reformation_n be_v but_o particular_a the_o

please_v to_o miscall_a many_o protestant_n forsake_v the_o whole_a church_n but_o the_o corruption_n of_o it_o in_o renounce_v some_o of_o their_o corrupt_a practice_n and_o this_o the_o protestant_n say_v they_o do_v without_o schism_n because_o they_o have_v cause_n to_o do_v it_o and_o no_o man_n can_v have_v cause_n to_o be_v a_o schismatic_a because_o he_o be_v only_o one_o who_o leave_v the_o church_n without_o a_o cause_n for_o it_o be_v not_o only_a separation_n but_o a_o causeless_a separation_n from_o the_o church_n that_o be_v schismatical_a and_o i_o think_v it_o will_v not_o be_v amiss_o before_o i_o go_v any_o far_a to_o distinguish_v the_o difference_n between_o heresy_n and_o schism_n heresy_n be_v a_o obstinate_a defence_n of_o any_o error_n against_o any_o necessary_a article_n of_o the_o christian_a faith._n schism_n be_v a_o causeless_a separation_n of_o one_o part_n of_o the_o church_n from_o another_o now_o we_o protestant_n say_v still_o that_o we_o never_o forsake_v the_o whole_a church_n or_o the_o external_a communion_n of_o it_o but_o only_o that_o part_n of_o it_o which_o be_v corrupt_v and_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v will_v still_o continue_v so_o viz._n the_o papist_n church_n and_o forsake_v not_o but_o only_o reform_v another_o part_n which_o part_n they_o themselves_o be_v and_o sure_o the_o papist_n will_v not_o say_v the_o protestant_n forsake_v themselves_o nor_o their_o own_o communion_n and_o therefore_o the_o papist_n argument_n must_v be_v very_o weak_a in_o urge_v that_o the_o protestant_n join_v themselves_o to_o no_o other_o part_n of_o the_o church_n therefore_o they_o must_v separate_v from_o the_o whole_a church_n which_o the_o protestant_n say_v be_v a_o false_a conclusion_n in_o as_o much_o as_o they_o themselves_o be_v part_n of_o it_o and_o still_o continue_v so_o and_o therefore_o the_o protestant_n can_v no_o more_o separate_v from_o the_o whole_a than_o from_o themselves_o so_o that_o by_o the_o rule_n of_o reason_n if_o protestant_n be_v schismatic_n because_o they_o differ_v from_o one_o part_n of_o the_o visible_a church_n by_o the_o same_o reason_n the_o protestant_n may_v say_v that_o the_o roman_a church_n be_v in_o a_o manner_n make_v up_o of_o schismatic_n for_o the_o jesuit_n be_v schismatic_n from_o the_o dominican_n and_o the_o dominican_n from_o the_o jesuit_n and_o the_o jesuit_n from_o the_o canonist_n the_o franciscan_n from_o the_o dominican_n and_o the_o dominican_n from_o the_o franciscan_n for_o all_o these_o as_o the_o world_n know_v differ_v in_o point_n of_o doctrine_n and_o betwixt_o they_o there_o be_v a_o irreconcilable_a contradiction_n and_o therefore_o one_o part_n must_v be_v in_o error_n and_o if_o the_o papist_n will_v but_o stand_v to_o justify_v what_o they_o declare_v as_o truth_n that_o every_o error_n against_o a_o reveal_v truth_n be_v a_o heresy_n they_o hold_v for_o certain_a as_o a_o reveal_v truth_n the_o immaculate_a conception_n of_o the_o virgin_n mary_n then_o consequent_o the_o dominican_n that_o hold_v and_o declare_v it_o a_o error_n in_o doctrine_n must_v necessary_o hold_v a_o heresy_n now_o it_o may_v be_v a_o fault_n to_o be_v in_o error_n because_o it_o many_o time_n proceed_v from_o a_o fault_n but_o sure_a protestant_n forsake_v error_n it_o can_v be_v a_o sin_n unless_o to_o be_v in_o error_n be_v a_o virtue_n so_o hardly_o do_v papist_n deal_v with_o we_o protestant_n as_o they_o will_v either_o damn_v we_o in_o make_v we_o follow_v their_o false_a opinion_n or_o else_o brand_v we_o as_o schismatic_n for_o leave_v they_o and_o yet_o the_o rational_a sort_n of_o papist_n can_v hardly_o deny_v but_o the_o protestant_a religion_n must_v be_v a_o safe_a religion_n than_o they_o in_o
