the_o satisfaction_n and_o performance_n due_a from_o they_o and_o that_o most_o certain_o we_o be_v not_o command_v to_o ask_v any_o thing_n of_o god_n but_o what_o god_n be_v willing_a to_o grant_v and_o christ_n have_v cancel_v the_o obligation_n of_o our_o whole_a debt_n have_v make_v perfect_a payment_n and_o satisfaction_n thereof_o in_o our_o behalf_n doct._n iii_o that_o the_o affliction_n wherewith_o the_o saint_n be_v exercise_v after_o the_o pardon_n of_o their_o sin_n be_v not_o punishment_n or_o satisfaction_n for_o sin_n past_a but_o fatherly_a chastisement_n to_o restrain_v from_o future_a but_o for_o that_o god_n use_v to_o afflict_v and_o scourge_v his_o child_n in_o sundry_a manner_n after_o forgiveness_n of_o their_o sin_n we_o believe_v that_o he_o do_v it_o not_o to_o that_o end_n satisfaction_n either_o in_o whole_a or_o in_o part_n may_v be_v make_v thereby_o to_o his_o justice_n for_o sin_n commit_v since_o one_o full_a satisfaction_n of_o christ_n impute_v unto_o we_o be_v more_o then_o enough_o thereunto_o but_o that_o by_o they_o as_o by_o the_o stroke_n of_o a_o father_n which_o conduce_v much_o to_o the_o morification_n of_o sin_n dwell_v in_o we_o

believe_v also_o that_o sin_n be_v proper_o for_o give_v by_o god_n alone_o by_o by_o grace_n &_o through_o christ_n the_o mediator_n since_o it_o be_v he_o alone_o against_o who_o proper_o sin_n be_v commit_v either_o mediate_o or_o immediate_o when_o we_o transgress_v his_o law_n and_o it_o lie_v in_o the_o power_n of_o the_o creditor_n only_o to_o show_v kindness_n to_o his_o debtor_n and_o remit_v their_o debt_n whence_o also_o christ_n as_o man_n 23.34_o man_n luke_n 23.34_o pray_v the_o father_n in_o behalf_n of_o those_o that_o crucify_v he_o that_o he_o will_v forgive_v they_o and_o

infer_v that_o he_o be_v the_o true_a god_n see_v this_o can_v be_v do_v by_o any_o mere_a creature_n unless_o ministerial_o as_o they_o say_v and_o in_o the_o name_n and_o by_o the_o authority_n of_o

whence_o flow_v this_o consequence_n which_o we_o confess_v that_o christ_n both_o god_n and_o man_n together_o with_o the_o father_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v forgive_v sin_n but_o this_o he_o do_v after_o a_o different_a manner_n as_o god_n and_o as_o man_n for_o as_o god_n he_o do_v it_o proper_o by_o his_o own_o authority_n true_o and_o effectual_o but_o as_o man_n he_o do_v and_o do_v it_o in_o the_o flesh_n as_o a_o cooperatour_n with_o the_o deity_n by_o his_o humane_a will_n consent_v with_o the_o divine_a and_o pronounce_v the_o word_n thy_o sin_n be_v forgive_v thou_o and_o

remission_n of_o sin_n be_v offer_v in_o christ_n alone_o and_o obtain_v by_o the_o elect_a alone_o endue_v with_o faith_n but_o as_o in_o christ_n only_o the_o mediator_n and_o redeemer_n as_o head_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n 1.7_o church_n eph._n 1.7_o we_o have_v redemption_n through_o his_o blood_n the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n so_o that_o there_o be_v none_o without_o he_o so_o also_o we_o

own_o merit_n but_o through_o faith_n in_o god_n the_o father_n the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o because_o we_o be_v in_o the_o church_n and_o have_v communion_n with_o all_o saint_n and_o

of_o bishop_n in_o a_o church_n yet_o not_o any_o succession_n be_v it_o what_o it_o will_v but_o such_o as_o have_v also_o the_o continuation_n of_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n we_o acknowledge_v i_o say_v that_o it_o may_v be_v true_o demonstrate_v from_o such_o a_o succession_n that_o such_o a_o church_n be_v apostolic_a as_o of_o old_a the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o the_o succession_n of_o the_o bishop_n thereof_o even_o unto_o the_o time_n of_o irenaeus_n tertullian_n cyprian_n and_o some_o other_o insomuch_o that_o those_o father_n do_v not_o without_o cause_n appeal_v thereunto_o and_o to_o other_o such_o like_a in_o their_o accustom_a citation_n of_o the_o heretic_n of_o their_o time_n but_o as_o on_o the_o one_o side_n as_o concern_v those_o church_n in_o which_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n together_o with_o christian_a discipline_n and_o the_o right_a administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n be_v retain_v pure_a although_o they_o be_v not_o plant_v by_o the_o apostle_n neither_o can_v show_v the_o perpetual_a succession_n of_o their_o bishop_n without_o interruption_n even_o from_o the_o apostle_n time_n yet_o we_o do_v acknewledge_v they_o for_o church_n true_o apostolic_a and_o say_v with_o tertullian_n and_o other_o of_o the_o father_n that_o they_o be_v so_o to_o be_v acknowledge_v so_o on_o the_o other_o side_n what_o church_n be_v plant_v and_o water_v by_o the_o apostle_n themselves_o although_o they_o can_v demonstrate_v unto_o we_o the_o continual_a succession_n of_o their_o bishop_n without_o any_o the_o least_o interruption_n yet_o if_o they_o can_v demonstrate_v unto_o we_o as_o well_o the_o continuation_n of_o the_o christian_a and_o apostolic_a doctrine_n as_o the_o succession_n of_o their_o bishop_n we_o may_v acknowledge_v and_o confess_v that_o they_o have_v be_v indeed_o christian_a and_o apostolic_a church_n but_o that_o they_o be_v such_o now_o we_o can_v acknowledge_v for_o as_o it_o be_v not_o the_o cap_n or_o the_o hood_n that_o make_v a_o monk_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o proverb_n but_o piety_n and_o sanctity_n of_o life_n so_o neither_o be_v it_o the_o succession_n of_o bishop_n but_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n and_o christian_a religion_n that_o make_v a_o church_n true_o christian_n doct._n vii_o that_o not_o any_o consent_n whatsoever_o but_o only_o that_o which_o be_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n suffice_v to_o evidence_n that_o some_o be_v true_a and_o christian_a church_n so_o also_o we_o conceive_v that_o it_o can_v be_v evince_v from_o any_o kind_n of_o agreement_n of_o church_n among_o themselves_o that_o they_o be_v the_o true_a church_n of_o god_n see_v there_o have_v be_v the_o great_a unity_n and_o concord_n even_o in_o the_o synagogue_n of_o the_o jew_n and_o the_o assembly_n of_o the_o turk_n as_o also_o heretofore_o in_o the_o conventicle_n of_o the_o arrian_n and_o donatist_n but_o we_o judge_v they_o only_o to_o be_v demonstrate_v as_o such_o from_o their_o consent_n in_o the_o purity_n of_o christian_a doctrine_n and_o true_a piety_n for_o when_o the_o apostle_n say_v i_o beseech_v you_o 1.10_o 1_o cor._n 1.10_o brethren_z by_o the_o name_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o you_o all_o speak_v the_o same_o thing_n and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o division_n among_o you_o but_o that_o you_o be_v perfect_o join_v together_o in_o the_o same_o mind_n and_o in_o the_o same_o judgement_n he_o mean_v in_o that_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n by_o who_o name_n he_o do_v request_v they_o to_o that_o unanimity_n doct_n viii_o that_o the_o be_v of_o church_n be_v not_o destroy_v by_o every_o kind_n of_o dissension_n that_o may_v arise_v in_o they_o nevertheless_o we_o be_v not_o so_o unjust_o rigid_a against_o those_o wherein_o there_o be_v not_o a_o perfect_a harmony_n and_o the_o same_o judgement_n concern_v all_o particular_n as_o therefore_o to_o deny_v they_o to_o be_v christian_a church_n because_o as_o any_o kind_n of_o concord_n do_v not_o constitute_v a_o church_n so_o neither_o do_v every_o dissension_n whatsoever_o destroy_v it_o provide_v this_o fundamental_a principle_n that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o person_n as_o christ_n true_a god_n and_o true_a man_n the_o true_a and_o perfect_a saviour_n be_v firm_o acknowledge_v and_o so_o the_o whole_a sum_n of_o apostolical_a doctrine_n which_o be_v deliver_v in_o the_o creed_n be_v receive_v with_o universal_a assent_n doct._n ix_o the_o same_o further_o assert_v for_o as_o reprobate_n and_o hypocrite_n do_v not_o hinder_v church_n from_o be_v true_o such_o by_o their_o be_v member_n of_o they_o so_o likewise_o those_o dissension_n in_o the_o church_n which_o be_v raise_v either_o by_o wicked_a man_n or_o among_o the_o godly_a themselves_o through_o the_o weakness_n of_o the_o flesh_n or_o ignorance_n be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o abolish_v they_o which_o be_v attest_v by_o the_o apostle_n when_o speak_v concern_v the_o minister_n of_o true_a church_n he_o say_v that_o upon_o the_o same_o foundation_n some_o do_v build_v gold_n silver_z precious_a stone_n but_o other_o wood_z stubble_n hay_n and_o in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o philippian_n 15.16_o chap._n 3._o vers_fw-la 15.16_o have_v first_o explain_v the_o sum_n of_o christian_a doctrine_n and_o exhort_v they_o all_o to_o prosi_v in_o the_o same_o he_o subjoine_v but_o if_o any_o thing_n you_o be_v

thing_n for_o otherwise_o if_o where_o ever_o discord_n happen_v to_o arise_v touch_v religion_n there_o be_v not_o to_o be_v acknowledge_v any_o true_a church_n than_o be_v not_o the_o corinthian_n in_o the_o time_n of_o st._n paul_n the_o church_n of_o christ_n since_o not_o only_o many_o schism_n distract_v they_o while_o one_o profess_v i_o be_o of_o paul_n another_o i_o be_o of_o cephas_n and_o a_o three_o i_o be_o of_o apollo_n but_o also_o strange_a contest_v and_o controversy_n about_o religion_n have_v fill_v they_o with_o feud_n and_o animosity_n so_o also_o will_v it_o follow_v

be_v sow_v among_o they_o in_o a_o word_n it_o must_v be_v conclude_v from_o thence_o that_o there_o never_o be_v any_o either_o in_o the_o east_n or_o west_n that_o can_v be_v true_o say_v to_o

among_o the_o holy_a father_n themselves_o as_o history_n abundant_o witness_v insomuch_o that_o the_o christian_n by_o reason_n of_o those_o dissension_n and_o sect_n use_v to_o be_v deride_v and_o

but_o as_o in_o the_o primitive_a church_n it_o do_v not_o follow_v from_o those_o disagreement_n of_o the_o christian_n that_o they_o be_v not_o therefore_o the_o people_n of_o god_n so_o neither_o
