this_o doctrine_n be_v confirm_v by_o their_o famous_a cardinal_n caietan_n who_o avouch_v two_o special_a ground_n against_o popish_a auricular_a confession_n for_o 20._o first_o although_o christ_n

we_o that_o the_o manner_n of_o popish_a confession_n to_o wit_n to_o confess_v secret_o in_o the_o priest_n ear_n be_v not_o ordain_v by_o our_o saviour_n christ._n out_o of_o which_o assertion_n i_o infer_v a_o double_a conclusion_n against_o the_o papist_n the_o one_o that_o confession_n be_v not_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n for_o that_o which_o be_v voluntary_a as_o to_o be_v a_o monk_n a_o nun_n a_o priest_n a_o jesuite_n be_v not_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n as_o every_o papist_n grant_v but_o be_v as_o a_o counsel_n &_o work_v of_o supererogation_n the_o other_o that_o popish_a law_n urge_v man_n to_o auricular_a confession_n be_v flat_a against_o christ_n institution_n and_o thus_o i_o ween_v i_o have_v prove_v this_o conclusion_n the_o sixth_o conclusion_n if_o popish_a confession_n be_v ordain_v by_o christ_n as_o the_o papist_n false_o and_o gross_o imagine_v yet_o will_v it_o follow_v by_o a_o necessary_a consecution_n that_o every_o pope_n shall_v be_v in_o danger_n of_o his_o salvation_n this_o conclusion_n may_v seem_v somewhat_o strange_a but_o i_o prove_v the_o fame_n by_o popish_a doctrine_n every_o man_n and_o every_o woman_n of_o lawful_a year_n be_v bind_v under_o pain_n of_o damnation_n to_o the_o say_a confession_n and_o consequent_o the_o pope_n be_v either_o man_n or_o at_o least_o woman_n as_o be_v think_v of_o pope_n john_n be_v
