indeed_o a_o weighty_a inducement_n to_o believe_v that_o to_o be_v the_o true_a church_n foresignify_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n wherein_o those_o sign_n wherewith_o god_n have_v fore-marked_n and_o predesign_v the_o true_a church_n be_v evident_a to_o be_v see_v then_o contrariwise_o if_o those_o sign_n and_o mark_n of_o the_o true_a church_n be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v in_o the_o protestant_n this_o aught_o in_o reason_n to_o induce_v a_o man_n to_o believe_v that_o the_o protestant_n be_v not_o the_o true_a church_n for_o where_o the_o connexion_n between_o the_o sign_n and_o the_o thing_n sign_v be_v indivisible_a there_o the_o inference_n be_v good_a proceed_v from_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o sign_n to_o the_o destruction_n or_o denial_n of_o the_o thing_n sign_v or_o signify_v as_o to_o say_v here_o be_v not_o the_o indivisible_a sign_n ergo_fw-la here_o be_v not_o the_o thing_n sign_v this_o i_o say_v suppose_v such_o infallible_a connexion_n which_o in_o this_o case_n ought_v to_o be_v suppose_v such_o divine_a prediction_n and_o the_o veracity_n of_o god_n be_v presuppose_v which_o ty_v the_o sign_n and_o the_o thing_n sign_v together_o by_o a_o inviolable_a and_o indissoluble_a knot_n i_o say_v further_o that_o it_o be_v false_a that_o nation_n have_v be_v convert_v to_o the_o true_a religion_n of_o christ_n by_o man_n of_o contrary_a religion_n which_o thus_o i_o demonstrate_v those_o contrary_a religion_n or_o profession_n of_o religion_n though_o they_o may_v be_v both_o or_o all_o false_a yet_o both_o or_o all_o can_v not_o be_v true_a as_o the_o roman_a orator_n say_v well_o pronounce_v universal_o of_o dissent_v opinion_n now_o of_o the_o true_a religion_n convert_n man_n to_o the_o true_a there_o be_v no_o question_n but_o of_o the_o contrary_a or_o repugnant_a to_o the_o true_a thus_o i_o argue_v either_o the_o professor_n of_o a_o false_a religion_n teach_v and_o preach_v '_o according_o to_o their_o false_a principle_n or_o doctrine_n and_o then_o by_o those_o they_o never_o convert_v any_o to_o the_o true_a religion_n or_o else_o they_o teach_v true_a principle_n and_o true_a doctrine_n of_o christian_a faith_n if_o so_o then_o if_o by_o those_o true_a principle_n etc._n etc._n they_o convert_v man_n to_o christian_a faith_n though_o themselves_o be_v not_o true_a christian_n yet_o they_o convert_v as_o agree_v and_o consent_v with_o the_o true_a religion_n not_o as_o opposer_n or_o as_o man_n of_o a_o contrary_a religion_n as_o if_o a_o heathen_a shall_v baptize_v by_o apply_v the_o matter_n and_o form_n of_o baptism_n with_o intention_n to_o do_v what_o christian_n be_v wont_a to_o do_v by_o the_o like_a application_n than_o not_o heathenism_n but_o christian_a religion_n baptize_v by_o a_o heathen_a nor_o can_v this_o argument_n be_v retort_v by_o the_o protestant_n for_o it_o will_v easy_o be_v make_v to_o appear_v that_o catholic_n have_v convert_v nation_n to_o and_o by_o those_o doctrine_n wherein_o they_o dissent_v from_o protestant_n whereas_o neither_o protestant_n nor_o any_o other_o oppugner_n of_o the_o catholic_a will_v ever_o be_v find_v to_o have_v convert_v nation_n by_o preach_v the_o doctrine_n wherein_o they_o disagree_v from_o the_o catholic_a but_o moreover_o as_o for_o the_o protestant_n they_o never_o convert_v any_o neither_o by_o their_o disagree_v nor_o agree_v doctrine_n nay_o even_o this_o confirm_v if_o at_o any_o time_n it_o so_o fall_v out_o the_o truth_n and_o efficacy_n of_o christian_a religion_n and_o the_o accomplishment_n of_o those_o prophetic_a prediction_n when_o even_o the_o alien_n or_o opposer_n of_o true_a religion_n who_o can_v achieve_v no_o one_o conversion_n to_o christianity_n by_o his_o own_o repugnant_a doctrine_n can_v and_o do_v effect_v it_o by_o virtue_n of_o christian_a truth_n which_o i_o say_v this_o suppose_a that_o any_o such_o precedent_n may_v be_v cite_v out_o of_o antiquity_n of_o some_o conversion_n to_o christian_a religion_n wrought_v by_o a_o alien_a professor_n though_o the_o entire_a conversion_n of_o a_o nation_n by_o any_o such_o separate_a instrument_n i_o believe_v have_v
