that_o we_o watch_v in_o respect_n of_o doctrine_n second_o by_o this_o mean_v we_o shall_v be_v bring_v to_o reverence_n and_o obey_v our_o pastor_n and_o teacher_n i_o know_v that_o our_o

they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o pass_v judgement_n otherwise_o than_o by_o the_o help_n of_o such_o mean_n as_o god_n have_v appoint_v by_o apply_v the_o rule_n of_o the_o word_n to_o the_o doctrine_n to_o be_v rule_v that_o it_o breed_v unspeakable_a respect_n when_o the_o people_n shall_v see_v that_o their_o teacher_n teach_v they_o no_o other_o doctrine_n than_o that_o which_o be_v warrant_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n three_o to_o this_o end_n god_n have_v give_v the_o gift_n of_o tongue_n and_o interpretation_n to_o the_o church_n that_o we_o may_v have_v translation_n whereby_o we_o may_v be_v enable_v to_o do_v it_o even_o as_o when_o a_o king_n do_v will_n a_o proclamation_n and_o cause_n it_o to_o be_v publish_v he_o do_v it_o to_o this_o end_n that_o his_o subject_n may_v

his_o will_n in_o the_o scripture_n in_o our_o vulgar_a tongue_n he_o do_v it_o unto_o this_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v examine_v our_o doctrine_n and_o deed_n by_o it_o and_o know_v and_o live_v according_o except_o therefore_o that_o we_o will_v not_o answer_v god_n end_n and_o expectation_n we_o must_v watch_v over_o doctrine_n four_o this_o be_v one_o reason_n why_o the_o apostle_n do_v confirm_v their_o doctrine_n by_o the_o scripture_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n to_o wit_n not_o because_o they_o want_v authority_n to_o put_v what_o they_o deliver_v upon_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o because_o we_o may_v be_v draw_v on_o and_o encourage_v to_o see_v the_o consent_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n and_o to_o search_v with_o the_o man_n of_o berea_n in_o the_o scripture_n for_o those_o doctrine_n which_o we_o do_v entertain_v five_o and_o last_o we_o may_v be_v move_v to_o watch_v over_o that_o doctrine_n which_o be_v deliver_v unto_o we_o by_o consider_v what_o glorious_a mean_n in_o appearance_n the_o adversary_n of_o the_o truth_n have_v to_o gain_v upon_o our_o affection_n that_o they_o may_v infatuate_a our_o judgement_n for_o do_v but_o mark_v what_o usual_o they_o plead_v first_o against_o we_o and_o second_o for_o themselves_o against_o we_o what_o be_v more_o frequent_a in_o their_o mouth_n and_o writing_n religion_n what_o the_o papist_n plead_v for_o themselves_o walsingh_n search_v into_o matter_n of_o religion_n than_o to_o urge_v these_o two_o thing_n first_o that_o we_o have_v no_o other_o doctrine_n opposite_a unto_o they_o than_o that_o which_o have_v be_v teach_v we_o by_o vicious_a deformer_n of_o religion_n such_o as_o luther_n be_v who_o as_o they_o say_v beside_o his_o notorious_a wickedness_n receive_v by_o his_o own_o confession_n some_o of_o his_o doctrine_n from_o the_o devil_n &_o second_o that_o as_o it_o seem_v out_o of_o the_o guilt_n we_o have_v in_o our_o conscience_n and_o suspicion_n of_o the_o badness_n of_o our_o cause_n we_o refuse_v disputation_n and_o other_o public_a trial_n oh_o what_o fair_a pretence_n be_v here_o if_o they_o be_v true_a to_o draw_v our_o heart_n to_o hearken_v to_o
