Wherein the true doctrine of a visible Church is taught, and the Church of England, proued to be a true Church. The Brownists false doctrine of the visible Church is conuinced; their shamefull peruerting of the holy Scriptures discouered, their arguments to proue the Church of England a false Church answered.

321._o com._n of_o saint_n 321._o here_o you_o affirm_v that_o the_o company_n of_o the_o faithful_a or_o true_a believer_n be_v the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n with_o who_o god_n make_v this_o covenant_n

therefore_o to_o they_o and_o not_o to_o the_o visible_a church_n be_v the_o promise_n make_v of_o life_n everlasting_a by_o christ_n so_o that_o this_o scripture_n make_v against_o you_o moreover_o
