father_n and_o mother_n be_v infidel_n or_o papist_n than_o i_o doubt_v what_o their_o child_n be_v because_o s._n paul_v so_o affirm_v to_o the_o corrinthian_o in_o his_o first_o epistle_n the_o .7_o chapter_n and_o the_o .14_o verse_n but_o because_o we_o be_v the_o child_n of_o wrath_n by_o adam_n corruption_n unto_o who_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n mercy_n and_o favour_n reach_v unto_o life_n

to_o the_o cor._n and_o 14._o ver_fw-la 1._o epistle_n we_o pray_v you_o be_v papist_n no_o better_o than_o infidel_n be_v they_o not_o christian_n the_o answer_n to_o the_o objection_n although_o they_o be_v bear_v in_o christendom_n yet_o be_v they_o not_o therefore_o true_a christian_n no_o more_o than_o they_o be_v all_o true_a english_a man_n that_o be_v bear_v in_o england_n there_o

be_v it_o possible_a for_o such_o to_o be_v christian_n that_o be_v god_n utter_a enemy_n be_v it_o possible_a for_o he_o to_o be_v a_o christian_n that_o deny_v christ_n powe_n to_o be_v sufficient_a

therefore_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a that_o any_o such_o papist_n can_v be_v christian_n and_o except_o their_o righteousness_n exceed_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisy_n they_o shall_v never_o come_v where_o christ_n kingdom_n be_v the_o scrib_n and_o pharisy_n beléeve_v that_o because_o they_o be_v abraham_n child_n and_o circumcise_v therefore_o they_o be_v save_v and_o the_o papist_n belefe_v be_v because_o they_o have_v leave_v in_o they_o some_o feed_v of_o grace_n to_o do_v good_a work_n by_o it_o they_o deserve_v salvation_n &_o because_o they_o be_v

to_o receyve_v this_o holy_a sacrament_n faithful_o and_o worthy_o the_o father_n answer_n first_o we_o must_v remember_v the_o gréevousnesse_n of_o our_o sin_n from_o the_o very_a bottom_n of_o our_o

we_o may_v then_o come_v bold_o &_o offer_v our_o gift_n in_o christian_a love_n &_o charity_n with_o out_o the_o which_o we_o must_v not_o dare_v presume_v to_o receyve_v the_o holy_a communion_n this_o be_v the_o best_a way_n that_o i_o know_v how_o to_o frame_v ourselves_o to_o receyve_v this_o holy_a sacrament_n the_o son_n .26_o question_n i_o pray_v you_o sir_n do_v all_o man_n that_o
