hunt_v after_o in_o the_o former_a book_n but_o can_v not_o get_v tiding_n of_o in_o all_o the_o world_n before_o luther_n ay_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n will_v on_o further_o to_o look_v out_o this_o church_n of_o god_n but_o first_o i_o will_v have_v you_o to_o note_n that_o as_o in_o the_o natural_a body_n there_o be_v many_o superfluous_a material_a part_n of_o flesh_n fat_a and_o some_o other_o even_a in_o the_o hand_n ear_n and_o eye_n as_o you_o see_v in_o man_n that_o be_v gross_a which_o part_n though_o they_o be_v coherent_a now_o be_v not_o resume_v all_o in_o the_o resurrection_n because_o they_o will_v extend_v and_o increase_v the_o body_n unto_o more_o than_o the_o just_a bigness_n of_o the_o man_n and_o beyond_o the_o original_a proportion_n of_o the_o soul_n so_o in_o this_o mystical_a body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v many_o part_n which_o will_v not_o rise_v with_o it_o unto_o glory_n and_o therefore_o be_v multiply_v above_o the_o number_n which_o be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n yet_o be_v call_v as_o many_o be_v call_v few_o choose_v for_o a_o time_n they_o do_v believe_v but_o they_o fall_v again_o before_o they_o die_v another_o thing_n you_o may_v note_v if_o you_o please_v that_o as_o the_o natural_a body_n receive_v the_o soul_n when_o the_o principal_a part_n be_v prepare_v do_v grow_v and_o flourish_v and_o afterward_o lose_v again_o the_o exterior_a beauty_n in_o old_a age_n so_o the_o church_n receive_v the_o spirit_n when_o by_o the_o instruction_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n the_o chief_a part_n the_o apostle_n be_v prepare_v and_o then_o do_v extend_v itself_o in_o bigness_n and_o flourish_v but_o in_o her_o old_a age_n in_o the_o day_n of_o antichrist_n she_o will_v loose_v her_o exterior_a beauty_n and_o majesty_n and_o be_v greevouslie_o afflict_v and_o persecute_v for_o a_o 14._o a_o the_o church_n in_o the_o time_n of_o her_o extreme_a persecution_n will_v be_v visible_a for_o

if_o we_o will_v not_o be_v ridiculous_o senseless_a must_v believe_v to_o be_v the_o catholic_a church_n as_o we_o must_v believe_v that_o be_v rome_n which_o the_o world_n god_n we_o profess_v the_o

all_o the_o church_n in_o the_o world_n wherein_o our_o father_n live_v and_o die_v to_o have_v be_v the_o true_a church_n of_o god_n in_o which_o undoubted_o salvation_n be_v to_o be_v find_v field_n

the_o true_a church_n of_o god_n and_o hold_v the_o save_a profession_n of_o heavenly_a truth_n see_v he_o also_o in_o the_o sixth_o chap._n of_o the_o same_o book_n we_o confess_v that_o all_o

the_o true_a christianity_n yea_o the_o true_a kernel_n of_o christianity_n and_o upon_o the_o 28._o of_o genes_n we_o confess_v the_o church_n to_o be_v among_o the_o papist_n for_o they_o have_v baptism_n absolution_n the_o text_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o there_o be_v many_o godly_a among_o they_o we_o deny_v not_o that_o the_o church_n remain_v under_o the_o pope_n tyraenny_n but_o they_o be_v such_o as_o with_o sacrilegious_a impiety_n he_o have_v profane_v etc._n etc._n caluin_n 4._o inst_z c._n 3._o and_o upon_o 2_o thessall_n 2._o he_o confess_v the_o church_n communicate_v with_o

they_o have_v not_o be_v continual_o in_o our_o communion_n all_o this_o time_n yet_o in_o this_o time_n they_o have_v be_v in_o our_o communion_n and_o so_o have_v the_o armenian_n and_o other_o

will_v plead_v for_o they_o that_o also_o their_o schism_n have_v be_v sometime_o thus_o catholic_a i_o answer_v as_o before_o that_o grecisme_n be_v never_o general_o the_o faith_n of_o christendom_n

it_o then_o the_o question_n i_o say_v be_v now_o and_o then_o be_v of_o fact_n as_o whether_o the_o know_a church_n of_o god_n spread_v over_o the_o world_n in_o the_o sixth_o age_n for_o example_n
