more_o narrow_a issue_n our_o demand_n be_v whether_o upon_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n make_v to_o his_o church_n for_o her_o preservation_n in_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n there_o may_v not_o be_v

of_o hope_n or_o confidence_n yet_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o perverseness_n of_o our_o nature_n which_o may_v make_v the_o general_a promise_n of_o god_n less_o effectual_a to_o we_o there_o may_v grow_v presumption_n because_o those_o promise_n be_v not_o absolute_a but_o conditional_a so_o whether_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n assistance_n to_o his_o church_n be_v of_o the_o like_a nature_n with_o some_o condition_n to_o be_v observe_v of_o the_o church_n part_n or_o whether_o it_o be_v altogether_o absolute_a be_v one_o point_n in_o question_n that_o it_o be_v in_o part_n absolute_a be_v a_o thing_n grant_v of_o all_o hand_n to_o wit_n that_o neither_o the_o wickedness_n of_o man_n nor_o the_o gate_n of_o hell_n shall_v ever_o so_o far_o prevail_v against_o it_o as_o quite_o to_o extinguish_v 18._o it_o but_o it_o shall_v continue_v a_o church_n till_o the_o last_o dissolution_n for_o else_o wherefore_o shall_v heaven_n and_o earth_n stand_v to_o be_v a_o cage_n of_o unclean_a bird_n or_o a_o theatre_n of_o iddle_a vanity_n this_o can_v agree_v possible_o with_o divine_a providence_n but_o for_o those_o promise_n which_o concern_v the_o better_a be_v of_o the_o church_n as_o the_o enlarge_n of_o her_o dominion_n the_o increase_n of_o the_o number_n of_o true_a and_o zealous_a catholic_n her_o more_o conspicuous_a and_o flourish_a estate_n her_o preservation_n from_o

of_o her_o manifold_a sin_n may_v make_v they_o less_o effectual_a unto_o she_o but_o take_v all_o these_o promise_n to_o be_v most_o absolute_a without_o condition_n we_o may_v grow_v presumptuous_a promise_v to_o the_o church_n overmuch_o security_n such_o be_v the_o error_n of_o the_o jew_n in_o the_o time_n of_o john_n baptist_n 9_o who_o build_v upon_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n make_v to_o
