to_o be_v do_v which_o be_v unlawful_a the_o true_a and_o only_a remedy_n be_v to_o clear_v the_o conscience_n from_o the_o error_n &_o not_o to_o follow_v it_o in_o error_n for_o this_o be_v to_o

he_o do_v erroneous_o believe_v it_o yet_o will_v he_o needs_o go_v on_o to_o his_o proof_n of_o unity_n though_o altogether_o unprofitable_a and_o unable_a to_o excuse_v rome_n from_o the_o charge_n of_o be_v uncharitable_a to_o protestant_n yea_o it_o rather_o aggravate_v his_o charge_n and_o make_v she_o more_o uncharitable_a in_o not_o hold_v unity_n with_o so_o good_a christian_n as_o

of_o that_o unity_n which_o it_o concern_v he_o even_o in_o this_o his_o walk_n of_o impertinency_n and_o wander_a to_o pursue_v and_o prove_v for_o sometime_o his_o allegation_n seem_v to_o prove_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v in_o the_o church_n one_o head_n and_o sometime_o one_o heart_n and_o affection_n sometime_o one_o spirit_n but_o if_o the_o author_n will_v be_v please_v to_o remember_v his_o own_o business_n he_o may_v consider_v that_o his_o work_n be_v to_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v in_o the_o church_n such_o a_o entire_a unity_n in_o all_o point_n of_o doctrine_n that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o difference_n or_o dissent_n in_o any_o one_o point_n though_o never_o so_o small_a but_o that_o by_o this_o difference_n the_o unity_n of_o the_o church_n and_o salvation_n be_v lose_v for_o we_o deny_v not_o but_o there_o must_v be_v one_o heart_n and_o one_o affection_n and_o one_o spirit_n in_o the_o church_n and_o all_o this_o in_o and_o under_o the_o unity_n of_o one_o head_n christ_n jesus_n again_o we_o acknowledge_v that_o god_n do_v find_v but_o one_o church_n and_o one_o religion_n and_o that_o without_o these_o two_o there_o be_v no_o salvation_n but_o except_o the_o author_n prove_v that_o the_o unity_n of_o this_o one_o church_n and_o of_o this_o one_o religion_n consist_v in_o this_o that_o the_o belief_n of_o all_o must_v be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o in_o all_o point_n under_o pain_n of_o damnation_n the_o former_a word_n of_o unity_n be_v mere_a word_n and_o not_o pertinent_a to_o this_o end_n neither_o will_v they_o make_v up_o his_o task_n for_o when_o he_o come_v to_o his_o next_o point_n that_o this_o unity_n be_v break_v between_o protestant_n and_o romist_n we_o will_v present_o deny_v that_o we_o have_v any_o way_n break_v that_o unity_n of_o faith_n which_o hold_v we_o in_o unity_n with_o the_o church_n and_o consequent_o we_o be_v still_o in_o the_o state_n of_o salvation_n and_o so_o all_o his_o errand_n be_v lose_v therefore_o the_o most_o place_n be_v impertinent_a as_o prove_v that_o which_o we_o deny_v not_o and_o indeed_o make_v nothing_o for_o he_o be_v grant_v he_o have_v two_o or_o three_o which_o by_o screw_n be_v

join_v with_o he_o sect_n ii_o the_o argument_n draw_v from_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o high_a priest_n among_o the_o jew_n answer_v a_o first_o of_o his_o unprove_n and_o impertinent_a place_n be_v that_o of_o deut._n 17._o where_n as_o our_o author_n say_v his_o whole_a people_n shall_v be_v subject_a to_o the_o determination_n of_o the_o high_a priest_n for_o the_o time_n be_v and_o this_o upon_o no_o less_o than_o pain_n of_o death_n in_o which_o sentence_n there_o be_v to_o be_v no_o appeal_n and_o a_o little_a after_o the_o great_a authority_n and_o power_n which_o be_v cast_v upon_o the_o individual_a person_n of_o one_o judge_n but_o first_o if_o we_o will_v read_v the_o word_n of_o god_n himself_o we_o may_v see_v that_o he_o speak_v of_o more_o than_o one_o individual_a person_n 12._o for_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o levite_n the_o priest_n and_o the_o judge_n and_o if_o a_o man_n will_v not_o hearken_v to_o the_o priest_n or_o to_o the_o judge_n that_o then_o he_o shall_v die_v 11._o but_o second_o it_o must_v be_v remember_v that_o that_o which_o the_o priest_n or_o the_o judge_n must_v pronounce_v must_v be_v the_o sentence_n of_o the_o law_n for_o even_o the_o prophet_n must_v die_v which_o shall_v presume_v to_o speak_v a_o word_n which_o god_n have_v not_o command_v 18.20_o yet_o three_o we_o well_o know_v that_o this_o speak_a according_a to_o the_o law_n be_v often_o neglect_v by_o the_o priest_n and_o therefore_o they_o break_v the_o covenant_n of_o levi_n 2.8_o and_o lead_v the_o people_n into_o error_n as_o hereafter_o more_o full_o may_v be_v prove_v and_o i_o hope_v this_o champion_n will_v not_o say_v that_o the_o people_n lose_v their_o salvation_n if_o they_o do_v not_o hold_v unity_n with_o the_o error_n of_o the_o priest_n and_o whereas_o he_o add_v that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o religion_n or_o church_n that_o do_v not_o agree_v with_o this_o we_o take_v not_o this_o to_o be_v the_o present_a question_n but_o whether_o all_o believer_n proselyte_n or_o jew_n do_v in_o every_o point_n by_o the_o priest_n decision_n hold_v a_o unity_n of_o belief_n and_o do_v in_o no_o point_n differ_v now_o this_o i_o think_v will_v never_o be_v both_o affirm_v and_o prove_v for_o not_o only_o humane_a testimony_n but_o the_o scripture_n themselves_o do_v show_v we_o 8._o that_o there_o be_v divers_a sect_n and_o opinion_n among_o they_o and_o yet_o they_o join_v together_o in_o external_a unity_n not_o divide_v themselves_o into_o two_o religion_n and_o church_n but_o to_o put_v this_o author_n out_o of_o trouble_n in_o regard_n of_o his_o individual_a high_a priest_n the_o mention_n of_o who_o seem_v to_o look_v asquint_o on_o the_o pope_n as_o his_o shadow_n let_v he_o remember_v that_o the_o high_a priest_n be_v himself_o a_o shadow_n of_o christ_n 8.5_o and_o when_o christ_n come_v this_o shadow_n be_v abolish_v and_o when_o this_o shadow_n die_v it_o leave_v not_o the_o pope_n either_o heir_n or_o

rite_n or_o ceremony_n not_o be_v point_n of_o faith_n but_o of_o action_n and_o be_v easy_a to_o be_v understand_v the_o obedience_n to_o lawful_a authority_n in_o they_o may_v more_o concern_v the_o essence_n of_o religion_n than_o obedience_n to_o the_o pope_n in_o those_o small_a point_n of_o faith_n wherein_o the_o pope_n have_v no_o unerring_a power_n and_o no_o authority_n to_o make_v a_o
