scripture_n shall_v be_v profitable_a but_o the_o scripture_n be_v sufficient_a to_o those_o thing_n ergo._fw-la three_o that_o which_o make_v a_o man_n perfect_a and_o furnish_v to_o every_o good_a

the_o scripture_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n &_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o not_o of_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n therefore_o the_o holy_a spirit_n have_v the_o authority_n to_o interpret_v as_o

because_o he_o know_v well_o enough_o how_o bad_a his_o cause_n be_v and_o therefore_o dare_v not_o submit_v his_o tenant_n to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n or_o the_o scripture_n if_o it_o be_v right_o understand_v and_o therefore_o will_v he_o wrest_v and_o stretch_v the_o scripture_n at_o his_o own_o pleasure_n touch_v which_o point_n i_o will_v have_v you_o note_v the_o word_n of_o a_o certain_a apostate_n from_o the_o faith_n caspar_n schoppius_n papist_n who_o be_v now_o at_o rome_n with_o the_o pope_n he_o in_o that_o epistle_n he_o write_v touch_v his_o defection_n from_o we_o unto_o the_o papist_n about_o six_o year_n ago_o set_v out_o at_o ingolstadium_n in_o the_o 24_o page_n say_v thus_o the_o sum_n of_o all_o controversy_n betwixt_o the_o catholic_n &_o the_o lutheran_n consist_v in_o these_o two_o thing_n that_o beside_o the_o holy_a scripture_n the_o tradition_n of_o the_o apostle_n &_o of_o the_o church_n be_v necessary_a to_o be_v believe_v and_o that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n themselves_o neither_o can_v nor_o aught_o to_o be_v interpret_v of_o any_o with_o authority_n save_v of_o the_o catholic_a roman_a church_n in_o which_o two_o doctrine_n if_o one_o be_v once_o persuade_v and_o settle_v he_o will_v easy_o yield_v and_o adjoine_v himself_o to_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n in_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o chief_a point_n of_o faith_n for_o if_o i_o be_v to_o dispute_v with_o the_o heretic_n about_o any_o article_n of_o faith_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o there_o be_v somewhat_o set_v down_o in_o the_o bible_n touch_v my_o opinion_n or_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o at_o all_o to_o be_v find_v for_o it_o if_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o the_o bible_n for_o i_o present_o than_o i_o say_v that_o it_o be_v wont_n so_o to_o be_v observe_v by_o tradition_n from_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n but_o if_o there_o be_v somewhat_o contain_v in_o the_o bible_n touch_v my_o opinion_n and_o the_o heretic_n will_v interpret_v it_o another_o way_n than_o may_v serve_v my_o turn_n then_o present_o i_o oppose_v to_o he_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n that_o it_o have_v so_o interpret_v it_o so_o that_o every_o dispute_v aught_o to_o be_v reduce_v to_o these_o two_o head_n thus_o far_o he_o and_o true_o this_o be_v it_o that_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n labour_v for_o that_o he_o may_v wrest_v the_o scripture_n as_o seem_v he_o good_a and_o than_o it_o be_v as_o if_o any_o offering_n to_o fight_v with_o another_o and_o the_o weapon_n shall_v be_v a_o sword_n he_o will_v fight_v upon_o this_o condition_n that_o he_o may_v be_v suffer_v to_o wield_v his_o adversary_n sword_n as_o he_o will_n and_o so_o it_o be_v likewise_o as_o if_o any_o will_v have_v a_o suit_n in_o law_n try_v before_o the_o judge_n according_a to_o the_o law_n but_o upon_o this_o condition_n that_o it_o may_v be_v lawful_a for_o he_o to_o interpret_v the_o law_n on_o his_o own_o side_n just_o so_o the_o pope_n do_v for_o he_o say_v i_o will_v dispute_v with_o you_o out_o of_o the_o scripture_n but_o so_o that_o it_o may_v be_v lawful_a for_o i_o to_o interpret_v the_o scripture_n on_o my_o own_o behalf_n i_o will_v have_v this_o also_o note_v that_o if_o the_o papist_n demand_n who_o be_v the_o judge_n in_o the_o controversy_n of_o faith_n we_o answer_v 203._o that_o the_o chief_a and_o high_a judge_n of_o controversy_n of_o faith_n be_v he_o who_o be_v the_o author_n both_o of_o faith_n and_o of_o the_o scripture_n to_o wit_n the_o holy_a ghost_n according_a to_o that_o of_o joh._n 16._o when_o the_o comforter_n shall_v come_v he_o shall_v reprove_v he_o will_v judge_v the_o world_n of_o sin_n and_o then_o only_a the_o scripture_n to_o be_v the_o law_n and_o sentence_n of_o this_o judge_n according_a whereunto_o judgement_n must_v be_v give_v concern_v controversy_n of_o faith_n as_o it_o do_v most_o manifest_o appear_v by_o john_n 5.45_o there_o be_v one_o who_o accuse_v you_o even_o moses_n i._n e._n the_o write_n of_o
