least_o of_o their_o imposition_n which_o have_v make_v the_o separation_n it_o may_v better_o have_v be_v style_v the_o mischief_n of_o union_n now_o to_o do_v this_o as_o he_o think_v more_o

from_o scripture_n ground_n rather_o than_o from_o some_o man_n concession_n see_v i_o do_v not_o understand_v either_o that_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o stand_v to_o their_o concession_n or_o that_o the_o concession_n themselves_o will_v do_v his_o cause_n the_o least_o service_n and_o they_o themselves_o have_v be_v so_o bang_v by_o the_o papist_n by_o this_o argumentum_fw-la ad_fw-la hominem_fw-la that_o one_o will_v think_v they_o shall_v have_v little_a comfort_n to_o use_v it_o we_o can_v forget_v how_o in_o the_o relation_n of_o the_o conference_n between_o the_o a._n b._n laud_n and_o

and_o therefore_o the_o safe_a way_n be_v to_o hold_v communion_n there_o where_o both_o side_n agree_v salvation_n may_v be_v attain_v this_o argument_n from_o that_o concession_n be_v much_o

they_o unanimous_o confess_v they_o find_v no_o fault_n with_o the_o doctrinal_a article_n of_o our_o church_n doctrinal_a article_n be_v there_o then_o any_o article_n that_o be_v not_o doctrinal_a every_o article_n contain_v as_o i_o always_o think_v some_o doctrine_n or_o other_o and_o which_o then_o be_v the_o non-doctrinal_a article_n more_o particular_o 1._o it_o be_v not_o true_a that_o the_o dissenter_n unanimous_o confess_v they_o find_v no_o fault_n with_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n for_o i_o be_o confident_a none_o of_o they_o but_o do_v find_v fault_n with_o that_o doctrine_n that_o child_n baptize_v and_o die_v before_o the_o commission_n of_o actual_a sin_n be_v undoubted_o save_v and_o that_o other_o that_o whosoever_o believe_v not_o steadfast_o all_o that_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o athanasian_n creed_n can_v be_v save_v but_o shall_v perish_v everlasting_o 2._o they_o do_v not_o believe_v all_o the_o article_n of_o the_o thirty_o nine_o and_o particular_o not_o the_o 20_o of_o the_o church_n power_n to_o impose_v rite_n and_o ceremony_n and_o that_o also_o be_v a_o doctrinal_a article_n 3._o but_o if_o by_o doctrinal_a article_n be_v

that_o the_o doctor_n have_v confess_v also_o that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n maintain_v all_o such_o article_n and_o yet_o he_o justify_v the_o separation_n from_o their_o communion_n whence_o it_o will_v unavoidable_o follow_v that_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o separate_v from_o a_o church_n which_o hold_v all_o the_o essential_a point_n of_o faith_n absolute_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n 4._o and_o what_o be_v it_o to_o the_o laity_n what_o doctrinal_a article_n be_v contain_v in_o the_o book_n compile_v 1562._o if_o the_o contrary_a doctrine_n be_v now_o open_o preach_v in_o those_o

more_o concern_v to_o they_o what_o be_v there_o preach_v than_o what_o faith_n they_o be_v of_o a_o hundred_o year_n ago_o §_o 2._o they_o general_o yield_v that_o our_o parochial_a church_n be_v true_a church_n and_o it_o be_v with_o these_o their_o communion_n be_v require_v and_o be_v not_o then_o the_o parochial_a church_n more_o beholden_a to_o the_o dissenter_n than_o to_o the_o doctor_n who_o principle_n do_v deny_v they_o to_o be_v true_a church_n for_o so_o he_o tell_v we_o p._n 27._o that_o although_o when_o the_o church_n increase_v the_o occasional_a meeting_n be_v frequent_a in_o several_a place_n yet_o still_o there_o be_v but_o one_o church_n and_o one_o altar_n and_o one_o baptistry_n and_o one_o bishop_n so_o that_o the_o parochial_a congregation_n be_v but_o occasional_a meeting_n member_n and_o appurtenance_n of_o the_o cathedral_n chapel_n of_o ease_n under_o the_o mother_n church_n but_o no_o true_a church_n because_o each_o have_v not_o its_o proper_a bishop_n and_o so_o they_o make_v the_o diocesan_n bishop_n the_o only_a pastor_n and_o the_o parochial_a teacher_n to_o be_v only_o his_o curate_n to_o ease_v they_o of_o the_o trouble_n and_o cumber_v of_o preach_v and_o some_o have_v observe_v a_o strange_a innovation_n in_o the_o very_a office_n of_o the_o minister_n of_o late_a year_n for_o whereas_o in_o the_o old_a ordination_n of_o
