biddle_n do_v against_o the_o minister_n of_o his_o parish_n and_o the_o whole_a church_n of_o england_n to_o boot_v it_o be_v plain_a you_o ought_v to_o cherish_v and_o commend_v he_o for_o stand_v

admit_v that_o the_o certainty_n of_o scripture_n be_v from_o tradition_n there_o be_v no_o refuse_v to_o admit_v that_o tradition_n cause_v certainty_n and_o make_v faith_n as_o certain_a as_o

the_o mean_a time_n absolute_a certainty_n of_o scripture_n be_v not_o the_o point_n of_o the_o conference_n nor_o be_v it_o the_o point_n of_o concern_v beside_o that_o it_o be_v agree_v on_o all_o

because_o this_o have_v be_v too_o open_a and_o people_n will_v have_v soon_o perceive_v that_o it_o have_v be_v to_o say_v i_o know_v not_o how_o to_o answer_v mr._n g's_o argument_n but_o will_v notwithstanding_o stand_v to_o it_o that_o his_o conclusion_n be_v false_a you_o think_v the_o best_a way_n to_o divert_v the_o reader_n be_v attention_n from_o what_o be_v before_o he_o be_v to_o

by_o his_o answer_n because_o it_o be_v a_o good_a one_o true_a in_o itself_o and_o direct_v to_o the_o point_n for_o it_o deny_v just_a what_o you_o assume_v that_o the_o greek_a church_n stand_v

plain_o than_o it_o be_v that_o where_o ever_o error_n come_v in_o tradition_n go_v out_o of_o necessity_n therefore_o if_o the_o present_a greek_a church_n have_v adhere_v to_o tradition_n it_o have_v not_o err_v if_o it_o have_v err_v it_o have_v not_o adhere_v to_o tradition_n which_o of_o the_o two_o be_v the_o case_n neither_o concern_v mr._n g._n nor_o can_v he_o dispute_v it_o
