tell_v we_o that_o they_o be_v such_o as_o receive_v not_o with_o high_a estimation_n and_o reverence_n the_o word_n of_o the_o lamb_n but_o make_v a_o religion_n and_o take_v delight_n in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o beast_n use_v 1_o now_o of_o this_o description_n we_o may_v make_v a_o double_a use_n first_o for_o instruction_n and_o second_o for_o exhortation_n first_o it_o teach_v we_o that_o they_o be_v most_o proper_o antichristian_n who_o take_v delight_n in_o the_o whooredome_n and_o idolatry_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o of_o this_o they_o carry_v a_o double_a brand_n first_o their_o slight_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n in_o the_o scripture_n as_o most_o of_o we_o know_v for_o as_o the_o pope_n do_v unyoke_v himself_o from_o it_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n as_o he_o be_v that_o caiphas_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o interpretation_n as_o he_o be_v the_o church_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o infallibility_n as_o he_o be_v christ_n vicar_n by_o

call_v pseudo-scriptu_a a_o late_a popish_a book_n so_o call_v with_o their_o plead_n against_o the_o scripture_n &_o with_o their_o deride_v of_o we_o for_o our_o constant_a appeal_n unto_o it_o hence_o be_v it_o that_o they_o fill_v themselves_o with_o much_o dirt_n to_o cast_v in_o our_o face_n for_o the_o scripture_n sake_n ob._n first_o they_o tell_v we_o that_o all_o heretic_n run_v unto_o the_o scripture_n as_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharise_n &_o other_o jew_n against_o christ_n so_o ebion_n corinthus_n menander_n arius_n &_o heretic_n of_o all_o time_n scripture_n sol._n why_o heretic_n appeal_v to_o the_o scripture_n we_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v true_a that_o heretic_n do_v take_v this_o course_n &_o that_o for_o three_o cause_n first_o because_o their_o conscience_n have_v tell_v they_o that_o there_o have_v be_v some_o divine_a thing_n in_o they_o above_o all_o writing_n whatsoever_o and_o therefore_o they_o think_v that_o if_o they_o can_v shelter_v their_o conceit_n under_o the_o wing_n of_o the_o scripture_n they_o be_v safe_a second_o because_o they_o see_v that_o all_o the_o member_n of_o the_o church_n who_o the_o devil_n do_v seek_v principal_o to_o annoy_v do_v love_n and_o make_v they_o their_o teacher_n comforter_n and_o counsellor_n which_o they_o will_v 119._o psal_n 119._o more_o willing_o hear_v then_o all_o the_o world_n heretic_n therefore_o be_v willing_a to_o propagate_v their_o error_n will_v corrupt_v such_o friend_n as_o be_v most_o dear_a to_o the_o party_n who_o they_o will_v have_v to_o embrace_v they_o three_o because_o they_o have_v be_v thus_o far_o acquaint_v with_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n that_o they_o know_v it_o make_v the_o scripture_n a_o spiritual_a judge_n pronounce_v under_o god_n as_o from_o live_a oracle_n what_o be_v necessary_a to_o be_v hold_v and_o practise_v in_o all_o fundamental_a matter_n of_o faith_n and_o obedience_n for_o these_o reason_n i_o say_v have_v heretic_n run_v unto_o the_o scripture_n yet_o for_o all_o that_o as_o christ_n object_v scripture_n in_o truth_n against_o the_o scribe_n pharise_n and_o devil_n who_o object_v it_o against_o he_o in_o hypocrisy_n even_o so_o must_v we_o what_o though_o my_o enemy_n say_v that_o he_o have_v part_n in_o my_o inheritance_n and_o that_o this_o and_o this_o piece_n of_o land_n be_v he_o shall_v i_o therefore_o beggar_n myself_o and_o resign_v it_o over_o unto_o his_o spoil_n shall_v i_o not_o rather_o search_v out_o my_o evidence_n and_o clear_a the_o truth_n of_o my_o right_n and_o the_o falsehood_n of_o his_o claim_n by_o those_o mean_n which_o the_o kingdom_n where_o i_o dwell_v will_v afford_v what_o though_o a_o bastard_n say_v that_o he_o have_v right_a of_o inheritance_n to_o my_o land_n shall_v i_o therefore_o renounce_v all_o my_o own_o birthright_n so_o though_o all_o the_o enemy_n of_o faith_n and_o bastard_n in_o the_o church_n shall_v claim_v a_o right_n in_o our_o inheritance_n and_o portion_n of_o the_o scripture_n shall_v we_o therefore_o forsake_v all_o our_o livelihood_n &_o comfort_n in_o they_o shall_v we_o not_o rather_o labour_v by_o the_o benefit_n of_o those_o gift_n which_o god_n have_v give_v not_o to_o the_o pope_n and_o his_o adherent_n but_o to_o the_o true_a church_n of_o god_n to_o wit_n the_o gift_n of_o interpretation_n tongue_n
