Also Dr. Laiton, Mr. Dayrel, and Mr. Bradshaw, are here answered, wherein they have written against us. With a table in the later end, of the principal occurrents in this treatise.

the_o voice_n of_o antichrist_n 9_o the_o church_n of_o god_n do_v keep_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o apostle_n &_o prophet_n without_o addition_n alteration_n or_o corruption_n thus_o the_o conformist_n but_o the_o church_n of_o england_n keep_v not_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o prophet_n without_o addition_n alteration_n and_o corruption_n say_v the_o nonconformist_n see_v pa._n 108._o ergo_fw-la she_o be_v not_o the_o church_n of_o god_n 19_o no_o society_n can_v be_v term_v god_n church_n which_o retain_v not_o god_n true_a worship_n thus_o say_v the_o

52._o the_o true_a church_n consist_v not_o of_o fierce_a lion_n wolf_n tiger_n and_o such_o like_a wild_a and_o fierce_a beast_n but_o of_o sheep_n and_o lamb_n which_o learn_v of_o christ_n and_o

169._o 170._o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o a_o true_a church_n here_o the_o reader_n see_v clear_o how_o the_o conform_a major_n and_o the_o nonconform_v minor_n make_v up_o entire_a syllogism_n of_o separatism_n and_o how_o they_o will_v be_v able_a to_o unlose_v these_o knot_n i_o know_v not_o except_o by_o revoke_v utter_o their_o own_o ground_n which_o if_o either_o of_o they_o do_v yet_o i_o

i_o can_v tell_v from_o who_o mr._n dayr_n receive_v this_o strange_a doctrine_n unless_o it_o be_v the_o heretic_n eunomius_n which_o teach_v that_o so_o man_n be_v of_o his_o religion_n it_o be_v no_o matter_n what_o their_o haeret._n conversation_n be_v nor_o how_o many_o sin_n they_o commit_v he_o do_v often_o affirm_v in_o his_o book_n that_o it_o be_v not_o 54_o faith_n and_o repentance_n but_o the_o profession_n thereof_o which_o be_v 244_o necessary_a to_o the_o make_n of_o a_o member_n of_o the_o visible_a church_n mark_v how_o blasphemous_o he_o speak_v intimate_v if_o man_n with_o

gross_a absurdity_n which_o may_v be_v true_o conclude_v from_o his_o word_n viz._n that_o a_o church_n can_v cast_v out_o some_o obstinate_a sinner_n neither_o be_v she_o and_o the_o world_n to_o

dayr_n definition_n now_o 35_o follow_v another_o let_v there_o be_v a_o assembly_n join_v together_o in_o prayer_n hear_v the_o word_n and_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n according_a to_o christ_n institution_n and_o it_o be_v a_o true_a visible_a church_n answ_n it_o be_v so_o indeed_o and_o hence_o this_o argument_n against_o they_o may_v be_v frame_v if_o in_o the_o ecclesiastical_a assembly_n of_o england_n there_o be_v neither_o prayer_n preach_v nor_o sacrament_n administer_v according_a to_o christ_n institution_n then_o be_v they_o all_o false_a church_n but_o the_o first_o be_v true_a therefore_o the_o second_o the_o proposition_n have_v sufficient_a confirmation_n from_o their_o principle_n before_o name_v the_o assumption_n be_v certain_a and_o manifest_a by_o the_o doctrine_n and_o description_n which_o he_o here_o make_v of_o a_o true_a visible_a church_n and_o there_o lie_v against_o it_o no_o exception_n 36._o in_o the_o next_o page_n he_o deliver_v a_o paradox_n viz._n that_o man_n outward_o may_v submit_v to_o true_a worship_n and_o yet_o be_v irreligious_a and_o profane_a now_o this_o be_v either_o false_o or_o foolish_o speak_v if_o he_o mean_v of_o visible_a profaneness_n and_o irreligion_n than_o it_o be_v a_o contradiction_n and_o indeed_o plain_a nonsense_n for_o to_o say_v that_o a_o person_n may_v outward_o submit_v to_o god_n and_o yet_o outward_o be_v profane_a and_o ungodly_a if_o he_o intend_v of_o secret_a and_o inward_a irreligion_n of_o the_o heart_n in_o this_o sense_n it_o be_v true_a but_o answer_v nothing_o at_o all_o to_o the_o matter_n for_o which_o he_o bring_v it_o here_o also_o he_o lay_v down_o mr._n ●insw_o word_n as_o he_o say_v unto_o which_o he_o make_v no_o direct_a reply_n but_o run_v to_o another_o matter_n whereof_o he_o have_v now_o no_o cause_n at_o all_o to_o speak_v he_o deny_v that_o either_o the_o papist_n or_o anabaptist_n do_v profess_v true_a religion_n although_o they_o profess_v
