do_v he_o call_v they_o heathen_n and_o if_o they_o see_v a_o church_n and_o do_v not_o believe_v it_o to_o be_v a_o church_n than_o it_o be_v such_o a_o see_v of_o a_o church_n as_o do_v not_o

and_o the_o catholic_n church_n be_v all_o the_o true_a christian_a church_n in_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o there_o can_v be_v no_o note_n of_o a_o true_a church_n but_o what_o belong_v to_o all_o the_o true_a christian_a church_n in_o the_o world._n which_o show_v how_o absurd_a it_o be_v when_o they_o be_v give_v note_n of_o a_o true_a church_n to_o give_v note_n of_o a_o true_a catholic_n and_o not_o of_o a_o true_a particular_a church_n when_o i_o know_v what_o make_v a_o particular_a church_n a_o true_a church_n i_o can_v know_v what_o the_o catholic_n church_n be_v which_o signify_v all_o true_a particular_a church_n which_o be_v the_o one_o mystical_a body_n of_o christ_n but_o i_o can_v never_o know_v what_o a_o true_a catholic_n church_n be_v without_o know_v what_o make_v a_o particular_a church_n a_o true_a church_n for_o all_o church_n have_v the_o same_o nature_n and_o be_v homogeneal_a part_n of_o the_o same_o body_n this_o i_o perceive_v our_o answerer_n do_v not_o understand_v one_o word_n of_o and_o therefore_o say_v nothing_o to_o the_o main_a argument_n which_o be_v to_o prove_v that_o those_o who_o will_v give_v note_n of_o the_o church_n must_v give_v such_o note_n as_o be_v proper_a to_o all_o true_a particular_a church_n for_o there_o can_v be_v no_o other_o true_a note_n of_o a_o church_n but_o what_o belong_v to_o all_o

which_o all_o christian_n must_v communicate_v in_o and_o out_o of_o which_o there_o be_v no_o salvation_n and_o therefore_o instead_o of_o touch_v upon_o the_o main_a point_n he_o run_v out_o into_o

whether_o i_o can_v know_v the_o catholic_n church_n before_o i_o know_v what_o a_o true_a particular_a church_n be_v and_o consequent_o whether_o the_o note_n of_o the_o church_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v such_o as_o belong_v to_o all_o true_a particular_a church_n by_o this_o rule_n i_o brief_o examine_v cardinal_n bellarmin_n note_n those_o which_o belong_v to_o all_o true_a church_n which_o very_o few_o of_o they_o do_v i_o allow_v to_o be_v true_a note_n but_o not_o peculiar_a to_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n as_o the_o 6_o the_o agreement_n and_o consent_n in_o doctrine_n with_o the_o

of_o merit_n and_o indulgence_n for_o want_v of_o which_o he_o quarrel_v with_o the_o

such_o as_o his_o 9th_o the_o efficacy_n of_o doctrine_n the_o 10_o the_o holiness_n of_o the_o life_n of_o the_o first_o author_n and_o father_n of_o our_o religion_n as_o for_o the_o efficacy_n of_o

let_v he_o read_v the_o examination_n of_o the_o 9th_o note_n for_o this_o but_o if_o it_o be_v true_a also_o that_o the_o roman_a catholic_n do_v convert_v more_o to_o the_o christian_a faith_n than_o any_o other_o sort_n of_o christian_n as_o the_o spaniard_n convert_v the_o poor_a indian_n this_o follow_v undeniable_o that_o they_o believe_v they_o be_v more_o bind_v to_o spread_v the_o

but_o he_o say_v the_o pharisee_n compass_v sea_n and_o land_n to_o make_v a_o proselyte_n prove_v they_o to_o be_v the_o best_a and_o most_o zealous_a of_o all_o the_o jewish_a party_n though_o they_o make_v they_o ten_o time_n more_o the_o child_n of_o hell_n than_o they_o be_v before_o i_o think_v none_o but_o our_o author_n will_v have_v have_v so_o little_a wit_n as_o to_o have_v

not_o prove_v they_o to_o be_v the_o best_a man_n nor_o the_o true_a church_n thus_o i_o say_v the_o 11_o note_n the_o glory_n of_o miracle_n and_o the_o 12_o the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n be_v

first_o know_v whether_o those_o church_n be_v pure_a and_o orthodox_n before_o we_o can_v tell_v whether_o they_o be_v catholic_n church_n and_o therefore_o in_o both_o sense_n the_o bare_a name_n
