be_v speak_v of_o viz._n the_o dignity_n of_o the_o word_n which_o have_v two_o part_n the_o first_o the_o authority_n of_o it_o the_o second_o the_o sufficiency_n of_o it_o because_o we_o be_v to_o build_v on_o it_o and_o to_o rest_v upon_o it_o as_o the_o ground_n and_o rule_v of_o faith_n and_o these_o be_v the_o two_o thing_n which_o we_o will_v handle_v at_o this_o time_n for_o the_o former_a of_o these_o quest_n what_o be_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o write_a word_n answ_n it_o be_v that_o by_o which_o it_o be_v authentical_a and_o worthy_a of_o credit_n in_o itself_o be_v the_o divine_a and_o only_a canon_n and_o rule_n for_o all_o thing_n to_o be_v believe_v and_o do_v that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n have_v this_o authority_n this_o verse_n which_o i_o have_v read_v do_v prove_v so_o also_o isa_n 8.20_o to_o the_o law_n and_o to_o the_o testimony_n if_o they_o speak_v not_o according_a to_o this_o word_n it_o be_v because_o there_o be_v no_o light_n in_o they_o if_o question_n be_v ask_v about_o the_o dead_a to_o the_o law_n and_o to_o the_o testimony_n whatsoever_o other_o say_v reject_v it_o this_o have_v authority_n of_o itself_o to_o this_o be_v add_v 2_o pet._n 1.19_o we_o have_v also_o a_o more_o sure_a word_n to_o these_o i_o add_v gal._n 6.16_o as_o many_o man_n as_o walk_v after_o this_o rule_n peace_n be_v on_o they_o this_o be_v the_o rule_n of_o all_o thing_n joh._n 2.16_o if_o any_o man_n bring_v any_o other_o doctrine_n bid_v he_o not_o to_o thy_o house_n where_o the_o word_n show_v that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o word_n of_o any_o authority_n but_o this_o word_n thus_o the_o word_n witness_v of_o itself_o therefore_o it_o must_v be_v true_a john_n 10.35_o the_o word_n can_v be_v break_v therefore_o it_o must_v be_v of_o that_o authority_n worthy_a of_o credit_n in_o itself_o and_o be_v divine_a we_o must_v believe_v it_o and_o it_o must_v be_v the_o rule_n and_o canon_n by_o which_o all_o thing_n must_v be_v do_v and_o this_o be_v the_o proof_n of_o the_o first_o point_n quest_n what_o ground_n have_v you_o for_o this_o that_o the_o scripture_n be_v thus_o authentical_a ans_fw-fr there_o be_v these_o first_o because_o they_o be_v god_n word_n to_o who_o it_o belong_v to_o appoint_v every_o one_o a_o cannon_n and_o rule_n that_o must_v give_v they_o direction_n to_o all_o thing_n to_o be_v believe_v and_o do_v second_o because_o god_n have_v write_v they_o for_o this_o end_n that_o they_o may_v be_v such_o a_o rule_n that_o may_v be_v always_o in_o the_o church_n that_o man_n shall_v not_o dare_v to_o swerve_v from_o it_o three_o because_o this_o word_n be_v the_o first_o divine_a truth_n of_o god_n himself_o to_o explain_v these_o first_o they_o be_v god_n word_n etc._n etc._n this_o be_v manifest_a of_o itself_o that_o it_o belong_v to_o god_n to_o appoint_v a_o rule_n and_o a_o cannon_n we_o further_o confirm_v this_o thus_o deut._n 7.11_o keep_v my_o commandment_n my_o statute_n and_o my_o judgement_n why_o so_o because_o they_o be_v my_o statute_n i_o command_v you_o the_o word_n be_v a_o lantern_n to_o my_o foot_n say_v david_n psal_n 119.105_o thou_o shall_v keep_v my_o statute_n so_o that_o if_o we_o inquire_v into_o the_o ground_n what_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o scripture_n be_v it_o be_v manifest_a it_o be_v authentical_a because_o it_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n who_o shall_v teach_v i_o say_v saint_n ambrose_n the_o thing_n that_o appertain_v to_o heaven_n god_n and_o not_o man_n who_o can_v better_a teach_v i_o concern_v god_n than_o god_n all_o other_o divine_a thing_n have_v need_v of_o testimony_n say_v salvian_n but_o only_o these_o thing_n speak_v by_o god_n need_v no_o more_o testimony_n while_o therefore_o it_o be_v god_n that_o have_v write_v this_o and_o he_o only_o have_v divine_a authority_n therefore_o this_o must_v needs_o be_v of_o divine_a authority_n the_o second_o answer_n be_v thus_o much_o because_o that_o this_o be_v write_v by_o god_n to_o that_o end_n that_o the_o church_n may_v always_o have_v a_o rule_n from_o which_o it_o shall_v not_o dare_v to_o swerve_v deut._n 5.32_o take_v heed_n to_o my_o statute_n turn_v not_o to_o the_o right_a hand_n nor_o to_o the_o left_a and_o that_o rom._n 15.4_o these_o thing_n be_v write_v that_o we_o through_o patience_n and_o comfort_n of_o the_o scripture_n may_v have_v hope_n therefore_o from_o hence_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o they_o be_v write_v to_o be_v a_o rule_n three_o because_o that_o this_o be_v the_o first_o divine_a truth_n of_o god_n himself_o therefore_o it_o have_v this_o name_n ephes_n 1.13_o john_n 17.17_o thy_o word_n be_v truth_n with_o a_o emphasis_n that_o there_o be_v no_o truth_n but_o this_o so_o ephes_n 2.20_o it_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o the_o church_n it_o be_v build_v upon_o the_o apostle_n and_o prophet_n we_o say_v it_o be_v the_o first_o truth_n of_o god_n himself_o because_o it_o must_v be_v first_o believe_v before_o we_o can_v believe_v by_o a_o divine_a faith_n any_o thing_n that_o be_v reveal_v in_o it_o faith_n do_v first_o spring_n out_o of_o it_o and_o be_v last_o of_o all_o resolve_v into_o it_o and_o so_o it_o be_v the_o first_o truth_n this_o be_v the_o principle_n of_o principle_n and_o though_o it_o be_v not_o believe_v yet_o it_o have_v the_o same_o authority_n gold_n be_v gold_n though_o no_o man_n have_v it_o the_o sun_n in_o the_o first_o day_n it_o be_v create_v be_v to_o rule_v the_o day_n and_o measure_n time_n though_o there_o be_v neither_o man_n nor_o beast_n to_o take_v notice_n of_o it_o in_o the_o gnomen_fw-la of_o a_o dial_n the_o shadow_n of_o it_o show_v the_o hour_n of_o the_o day_n though_o man_n sleep_v principle_n in_o all_o art_n be_v to_o be_v grant_v be_v not_o deny_v without_o gross_a absurdity_n here_o be_v our_o first_o principle_n that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n that_o god_n have_v a_o word_n that_o the_o scripture_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n these_o be_v and_o aught_o to_o be_v assent_v unto_o by_o whosoever_o will_v be_v call_v christian_a the_o deny_v of_o any_o one_o of_o these_o be_v to_o open_v the_o gate_n to_o atheism_n and_o all_o prophanesse_n so_o than_o this_o be_v manifest_a that_o this_o word_n of_o god_n be_v of_o divine_a authority_n the_o first_o use_v then_o teach_v we_o that_o then_o fall_v to_o the_o ground_n the_o doctrine_n of_o popery_n that_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o scripture_n have_v no_o authority_n but_o from_o the_o church_n some_o have_v speak_v very_o blasphemous_o of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n one_o for_o all_o the_o precedent_n of_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n say_v that_o the_o scripture_n have_v no_o more_o authority_n than_o esop_n fable_n without_o authority_n from_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o other_o say_v they_o have_v no_o more_o authority_n than_o any_o other_o profane_a book_n other_o more_o moderate_a say_v they_o have_v no_o more_o authority_n in_o they_o then_o they_o receive_v from_o the_o church_n the_o question_n be_v not_o what_o authority_n the_o church_n do_v give_v to_o the_o scripture_n but_o what_o authority_n they_o have_v in_o themselves_o the_o church_n can_v but_o declare_v their_o authority_n the_o scripture_n have_v it_o in_o themselves_o i_o have_v not_o believe_v the_o scripture_n say_v austin_n we_o never_o deny_v that_o the_o church_n have_v excellent_a office_n concern_v the_o scripture_n as_o first_o it_o be_v to_o keep_v they_o and_o preserve_v they_o therefore_o the_o church_n be_v compare_v to_o a_o

to_o publish_v the_o law_n of_o god_n the_o three_o office_n it_o have_v be_v to_o discern_v the_o true_a scripture_n from_o forgery_n and_o apocryphal_a it_o can_v make_v that_o which_o be_v

because_o the_o scripture_n never_o tell_v we_o of_o any_o original_n or_o beginning_n that_o the_o father_n have_v therefore_o be_v unbegotten_a again_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o that_o there_o

the_o trinity_n be_v to_o be_v consider_v absolute_o as_o they_o be_v god_n so_o they_o be_v common_a to_o they_o all_o and_o relative_o that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o every_o one_o work_n according_a

from_o they_o both_o and_o be_v not_o of_o himself_o as_o a_o person_n and_o therefore_o work_v not_o of_o himself_o but_o from_o they_o both_o thus_o the_o ground_n of_o their_o work_n be_v the_o

they_o can_v not_o meet_v with_o nor_o distinguish_v heretic_n that_o they_o may_v be_v better_o know_v when_o heretic_n begin_v to_o oppose_v this_o doctrine_n they_o will_v say_v there_o be_v one_o

saint_n have_v all_o one_o heart_n therefore_o the_o church_n take_v these_o term_n one_o in_o essence_n to_o discover_v these_o heretic_n so_o they_o will_v say_v that_o there_o be_v a_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n but_o that_o the_o father_n be_v sometime_o the_o son_n and_o sometime_o the_o holy_a ghost_n so_o that_o he_o be_v the_o father_n in_o one_o respect_n and_o the_o son_n in_o another_o hereupon_o the_o church_n upon_o warrant_n of_o the_o scripture_n find_v out_o these_o word_n that_o whereas_o heretic_n will_v speak_v with_o the_o church_n and_o will_v not_o

faith_n every_o man_n therefore_o must_v labour_v after_o this_o manner_n to_o believe_v whereupon_o brethren_n we_o infer_v the_o necessity_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o this_o mystery_n for_o a_o man_n can_v believe_v unless_o he_o know_v it_o therefore_o every_o one_o ought_v to_o bend_v his_o ear_n and_o his_o head_n to_o know_v it_o if_o god_n have_v reveal_v himself_o in_o general_a it_o have_v be_v enough_o to_o know_v he_o so_o but_o god_n have_v reveal_v himself_o in_o particular_a how_o he_o be_v one_o and_o how_o he_o be_v three_o therefore_o the_o church_n know_v that_o this_o
