the_o church_n what_o be_v this_o but_o to_o trifle_v i_o must_v believe_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v scripture_n because_o the_o church_n tell_v i_o so_o i_o must_v believe_v that_o the_o report_n of_o the_o church_n be_v true_a because_o the_o scripture_n say_v so_o but_o for_o your_o better_a satisfaction_n in_o this_o point_n i_o refer_v you_o to_o my_o answer_n in_o the_o 2._o &_o 5._o

to_o be_v believe_v and_o therefore_o be_v their_o fides_fw-la implicita_fw-la devise_v neither_o be_v it_o prove_v that_o the_o protestant_n have_v no_o rule_n to_o know_v what_o be_v matter_n of_o

not_o the_o limit_n of_o belief_n the_o protestant_n have_v no_o rule_n to_o know_v what_o be_v matter_n of_o faith_n i_o think_v the_o protestant_n be_v yet_o unborn_a that_o make_v the_o d._n d._n

papist_n will_v deny_v but_o if_o it_o be_v grant_v that_o all_o protestant_n do_v so_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o prove_v that_o the_o protestant_n have_v no_o rule_n whereby_o to_o know_v what_o be_v matter_n of_o faith_n but_o that_o they_o have_v a_o unperfect_a rule_n to_o be_v short_a who_o know_v not_o that_o the_o protestant_n make_v the_o whole_a scripture_n the_o rule_n of_o their_o

there_o be_v nothing_o necessary_o to_o be_v believe_v for_o salvation_n whereas_o the_o papist_n disable_v the_o write_a word_n of_o god_n to_o establish_v the_o fancy_n of_o mortal_a man_n join_v the_o unwritten_a tradition_n of_o i_o know_v not_o who_o in_o equal_a authority_n with_o the_o write_a word_n of_o the_o almighty_a god_n but_o the_o creed_n say_v you_o be_v not_o the_o limit_n of_o
