which_o the_o apostle_n have_v over_o all_o church_n be_v peculiar_a to_o they_o and_o die_v with_o they_o we_o see_v god_n do_v not_o think_v it_o necessary_a to_o leave_v a_o successor_n to_o

if_o it_o be_v true_a the_o expression_n there_o use_v of_o this_o rock_n especial_o be_v so_o particular_o level_v at_o peter_n as_o you_o will_v needs_o have_v it_o can_v with_o any_o colour_n be_v think_v to_o mean_v a_o succession_n of_o many_o hundred_o of_o person_n and_o sure_o i_o be_o whatever_o the_o text_n speak_v of_o peter_n it_o speak_v not_o one_o word_n of_o peter_n successor_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v as_o easy_a for_o i_o to_o deny_v it_o as_o you_o to_o affirm_v it_o 3._o whatever_o this_o promise_n or_o privilege_n be_v it_o belong_v no_o more_o to_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n than_o to_o the_o church_n of_o england_n the_o name_n of_o one_o be_v here_o as_o clear_v as_o the_o other_o it_o be_v a_o general_a promise_n extend_v to_o the_o church_n at_o all_o

if_o their_o be_v build_v upon_o st._n peter_n do_v not_o secure_v they_o from_o fallibility_n and_o apostasy_n as_o you_o say_v it_o do_v not_o then_o consequent_o the_o build_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n upon_o st._n peter_n do_v not_o make_v they_o infallible_a but_o they_o may_v as_o we_o say_v and_o prove_v they_o do_v fall_v away_o and_o certain_o one_o of_o these_o two_o thing_n

notwithstanding_o this_o promise_n every_o church_n that_o now_o be_v subject_n to_o the_o pope_n may_v fall_v away_o from_o he_o and_o so_o the_o pope_n may_v be_v a_o head_n without_o a_o body_n a_o

to_o any_o particular_a church_n and_o to_o you_o in_o a_o special_a manner_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o prove_v your_o infallibility_n this_o place_n concern_v doctrine_n no_o more_o than_o manner_n and_o secure_v your_o church_n no_o more_o against_o damnable_a heresy_n than_o against_o damnable_a practice_n since_o the_o gate_n of_o hell_n prevail_v by_o one_o as_o well_o as_o by_o the_o other_o and_o since_o you_o acknowledge_v that_o peter_n successor_n have_v live_v and_o die_v in_o damnable_a sin_n they_o may_v as_o well_o die_v in_o damnable_a heresy_n beside_o if_o this_o text_n do_v prove_v the_o pope_n supremacy_n yet_o here_o be_v not_o one_o word_n concern_v his_o infallibility_n which_o be_v quite_o another_o thing_n 5._o if_o this_o text_n do_v prove_v any_o infallibility_n it_o do_v not_o prove_v the_o pope_n infallibility_n which_o you_o allege_v this_o text_n for_o but_o the_o infallibility_n of_o the_o church_n which_o be_v build_v upon_o it_o pop._n but_o that_o church_n be_v infallible_a because_o they_o adhere_v to_o the_o rock_n viz._n the_o pope_n who_o therefore_o must_v needs_o be_v more_o infallible_a prot._n then_o it_o seem_v the_o foundation_n of_o all_o your_o infallibility_n be_v in_o the_o pope_n as_o peter_n successor_n who_o multitude_n of_o your_o own_o learned_a and_o approve_v doctor_n acknowledge_v to_o be_v fallible_a i_o have_v hear_v you_o all_o confess_v that_o your_o pope_n may_v err_v in_o manner_n and_o practice_n be_v it_o so_o pop._n yes_o prot._n then_o whatsoever_o he_o think_v he_o may_v speak_v lie_n and_o deceive_v the_o world_n in_o tell_v they_o he_o be_v infallible_a and_o sure_o if_o a_o man_n will_v deceive_v for_o any_o thing_n he_o will_v do_v it_o for_o such_o a_o empire_n as_o the_o pope_n hold_v but_o i_o have_v hear_v also_o your_o pope_n may_v err_v in_o matter_n of_o fact_n pop._n that_o we_o do_v all_o agree_v in_o prot._n then_o he_o may_v mistake_v and_o err_v in_o these_o question_n

let_v i_o first_o ask_v you_o what_o church_n be_v there_o speak_v of_o which_o you_o say_v be_v infallible_a be_v it_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v timothy_n bishop_n of_o rome_n or_o no_o pop._n no_o he_o be_v bishop_n of_o ephesus_n but_o why_o do_v you_o ask_v that_o question_n prot._n this_o place_n apparent_o speak_v of_o that_o church_n in_o and_o over_o which_o timothy_n be_v set_v so_o if_o it_o speak_v of_o any_o particular_a church_n it_o must_v be_v that_o of_o ephesus_n which_o you_o confess_v be_v fallible_a not_o that_o of_o rome_n or_o if_o it_o speak_v of_o the_o universal_a church_n that_o may_v be_v
deny_v of_o the_o read_n of_o scripture_n to_o the_o people_n and_o other_o and_o will_v you_o yet_o brag_v of_o the_o antiquity_n of_o your_o religion_n 3._o these_o doctrine_n wherein_o we_o differ_v from_o you_o have_v be_v not_o only_o prove_v from_o scripture_n but_o from_o the_o plain_a testimony_n of_o ancient_a father_n as_o i_o think_v none_o can_v doubt_v that_o lay_v aside_o prejudices_fw-la shall_v read_v what_o our_o jewel_n and_o morton_n and_o field_n and_o other_o have_v write_v how_o then_o can_v you_o have_v the_o confidence_n to_o charge_v we_o with_o novelty_n pop._n your_o church_n be_v new_a in_o this_o respect_n that_o although_o some_o other_o before_o you_o may_v own_v some_o of_o your_o doctrine_n there_o be_v no_o church_n that_o own_v all_o your_o doctrine_n both_o positive_a and_o negative_a prot._n that_o be_v not_o necessary_a i_o hope_v every_o alteration_n of_o doctrine_n of_o less_o moment_n do_v not_o make_v the_o church_n new_a if_o it_o do_v it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o your_o church_n be_v new_a also_o for_o nothing_o can_v be_v more_o plain_a than_o that_o the_o catholic_n church_n nay_o even_o your_o own_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v not_o ancient_o in_o former_a age_n hold_v all_o these_o doctrine_n which_o now_o she_o own_v as_o your_o own_o great_a author_n confess_v this_o be_v sufficient_a that_o the_o church_n of_o god_n in_o most_o former_a age_n have_v own_v all_o our_o substantial_a doctrine_n but_o what_o have_v you_o further_a to_o say_v pop._n it_o be_v sufficient_a against_o you_o that_o your_o

desire_v to_o know_v of_o you_o whether_o in_o no_o case_n a_o man_n may_v separate_v from_o the_o church_n whereof_o he_o be_v a_o member_n without_o schism_n pop._n yes_o certain_o if_o there_o be_v sufficient_a cause_n for_o it_o for_o the_o apostle_n do_v separate_v from_o the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n after_o christ_n death_n and_o the_o orthodox_n separate_v from_o the_o arrian_n church_n and_o all_o communion_n with_o they_o yet_o none_o ever_o charge_v they_o with_o schism_n prot._n since_o you_o mention_v that_o instance_n i_o pray_v you_o tell_v i_o why_o they_o separate_v from_o the_o arrian_n pop._n because_o they_o hold_v this_o heresy_n that_o christ_n be_v a_o creature_n and_o not_o the_o true_a god_n prot._n very_o well_o hence_o than_o i_o conclude_v that_o if_o your_o church_n do_v hold_v any_o heresy_n and_o require_v all_o her_o member_n to_o own_v it_o too_o it_o be_v no_o schism_n for_o we_o to_o separate_v from_o you_o pop._n that_o must_v needs_o be_v grant_v but_o this_o be_v but_o a_o slander_n of_o you_o for_o our_o church_n hold_v no_o such_o heresy_n prot._n your_o church_n do_v not_o hold_v one_o but_o many_o dangerous_a error_n and_o heresy_n as_o i_o do_v not_o doubt_v to_o manifest_v ere_o you_o and_o i_o part_v and_o if_o you_o please_v we_o will_v leave_v the_o present_a argumeut_n to_o this_o issue_n if_o i_o do_v not_o prove_v your_o

you_o speak_v reason_n let_v it_o rest_v there_o prot._n beside_o methinks_v you_o deal_v barbarous_o with_o we_o you_o drive_v we_o out_o from_o you_o by_o your_o tyranny_n and_o then_o you_o blame_v

it_o be_v high_o dangerous_a to_o break_v any_o of_o god_n command_n and_o to_o teach_v man_n so_o and_o to_o make_v the_o word_n of_o god_n of_o none_o effect_v by_o humane_a tradition_n we_o know_v

that_o do_v not_o submit_v themselves_o to_o your_o church_n and_o pope_n however_o they_o may_v terrify_v silly_a people_n yet_o take_v it_o from_o i_o to_o prudent_a man_n it_o be_v rather_o a_o

the_o falseness_n of_o your_o religion_n for_o such_o will_v be_v apt_a to_o conclude_v that_o your_o faith_n be_v not_o right_a because_o your_o uncharitableness_n be_v so_o notorious_a and_o
