church_n so_o late_o to_o declare_v against_o the_o pope_n infallibility_n and_o to_o reduce_v he_o in_o that_o respect_n to_o the_o case_n of_o a_o ordinary_a bishop_n if_o absolute_a obedience_n be_v due_a to_o he_o as_o head_n of_o the_o church_n what_o authority_n have_v the_o temporal_a prince_n in_o other_o country_n sometime_o to_o forbid_v sometime_o to_o restrain_v and_o limit_v the_o pope_n bull_n this_o at_o least_o show_v that_o there_o may_v be_v just_a authority_n to_o examine_v and_o restrain_v the_o pope_n power_n and_o i_o see_v no_o reason_n why_o the_o several_a church_n of_o christendom_n may_v not_o act_v as_o well_o against_o the_o pretence_n of_o the_o pope_n authority_n as_o the_o gallican_n church_n have_v do_v against_o his_o infallibility_n especial_o since_o this_o gentleman_n have_v tell_v we_o that_o authority_n without_o infallibility_n signify_v nothing_o and_o those_o who_o think_v they_o may_v examine_v and_o reject_v his_o dictate_v may_v do_v the_o same_o by_o his_o authority_n the_o one_o be_v as_o liable_a as_o the_o other_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o paper_n that_o no_o country_n can_v subsist_v in_o
other_o and_o therefore_o we_o must_v judge_n more_o reasonable_o what_o follow_v about_o the_o infallibility_n promise_v to_o the_o church_n have_v be_v answer_v already_o as_o to_o the_o canonical_a book_n i_o show_v it_o be_v no_o authoritative_a decision_n by_o a_o power_n in_o the_o church_n to_o make_v book_n canonical_a which_o be_v not_o so_o but_o a_o mere_a give_v testimony_n in_o a_o

and_o so_o far_o i_o own_o the_o true_o catholic_n church_n to_o have_v authority_n in_o any_o testimony_n deliver_v down_o the_o book_n of_o scripture_n but_o this_o prove_v no_o more_o

and_o thus_o much_o of_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n in_o matter_n of_o faith._n iii_o of_o the_o reformation_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n there_o be_v so_o many_o

defence_n of_o the_o paper_n upon_o these_o head_n as_o to_o the_o charge_n of_o causeless_a breach_n in_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n it_o lie_v in_o these_o word_n and_o by_o what_o authority_n man_n separate_v themselves_o from_o that_o church_n which_o be_v speak_v with_o respect_n to_o the_o member_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n do_v imply_v that_o they_o have_v make_v a_o separation_n from_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n and_o that_o they_o have_v no_o sufficient_a authority_n for_o so_o do_v and_o therefore_o be_v guilty_a of_o schism_n in_o it_o to_o the_o question_n two_o answer_n be_v give_v 1._o by_o distinguish_v the_o true_o catholic_n church_n from_o the_o roman_n catholic_n and_o a_o distinction_n between_o these_o be_v make_v out_o which_o be_v do_v in_o the_o first_o part_n of_o this_o defence_n it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o we_o have_v make_v a_o breach_n in_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n because_o we_o do_v not_o join_v in_o communion_n with_o the_o roman_n catholic_n this_o be_v illustrate_v by_o the_o example_n of_o a_o prosperous_a usurper_n in_o a_o kingdom_n who_o challenge_v a_o title_n to_o the_o whole_a by_o gain_v a_o considerable_a part_n of_o it_o and_o require_v from_o all_o the_o king_n subject_n within_o his_o power_n to_o own_v he_o to_o be_v rightful_a king_n whereupon_o the_o question_n be_v put_v whether_o refuse_v to_o do_v it_o be_v a_o act_n of_o rebellion_n or_o of_o loyalty_n so_o in_o the_o church_n the_o pope_n authority_n over_o it_o so_o as_o to_o restrain_v catholic_n communion_n only_a to_o those_o who_o own_o it_o be_v not_o only_o look_v on_o as_o a_o usurpation_n by_o we_o but_o by_o all_o the_o eastern_a church_n and_o be_v in_o truth_n alter_v the_o term_n of_o christian_a communion_n from_o what_o they_o be_v in_o the_o true_o catholic_n and_o apostolic_a church_n therefore_o since_o the_o condition_n require_v be_v unreasonable_a because_o different_a from_o they_o what_o breach_n have_v follow_v be_v not_o to_o be_v impute_v to_o those_o who_o refuse_v these_o term_n but_o to_o those_o who_o impose_v they_o and_o so_o the_o gild_n of_o it_o lie_v upon_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o not_o upon_o the_o church_n of_o england_n this_o be_v the_o substance_n of_o the_o answer_n to_o which_o the_o

no_o necessity_n for_o we_o to_o show_v any_o church_n distinct_a from_o other_o which_o in_o all_o thing_n we_o agree_v with_o because_o we_o hold_v all_o particular_a church_n liable_a to_o error_n

thereby_o exclude_v they_o from_o be_v part_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n but_o we_o say_v they_o be_v no_o infallible_a rule_n to_o we_o and_o therefore_o we_o ought_v to_o proceed_v by_o what_o
