the_o visible_a church_n be_v contain_v partly_o under_o sight_n partly_o under_o faith_n with_o external_a eye_n we_o see_v those_o man_n that_o be_v in_o the_o church_n with_o internal_a faith_n we_o believe_v that_o among_o they_o the_o true_a doctrine_n of_o christ_n be_v both_o deliver_v and_o conserve_v 2._o and_o thus_o be_v that_o cavil_v of_o the_o lutheran_n solue_v that_o which_o

some_o other_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o contain_v under_o faith_n and_o of_o this_o matter_n there_o be_v diverse_a example_n in_o christ_n the_o apostle_n see_v his_o humanity_n they_o believe_v

that_o each_o man_n which_o be_v in_o the_o church_n be_v true_o faithful_a and_o do_v with_o internal_a affection_n follow_v the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n second_o that_o by_o faith_n we_o believe_v
