here_o it_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v that_o howsoever_o we_o may_v say_v this_o man_n or_o that_o church_n be_v catholic_a yet_o we_o may_v not_o say_v and_o speak_v proper_o this_o be_v the_o

28._o rom._n 3._o 28._o we_o conclude_v that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n without_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n but_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n that_o now_o be_v holdeth_z and_o for_o many_o year_n have_v hold_v that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v both_o by_o faith_n and_o work_n contrary_a to_o the_o conclusion_n therefore_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v not_o catholic_a but_o

thereunto_o now_o this_o be_v a_o mystery_n to_o flesh_n and_o blood_n which_o will_v fain_o rejoice_v in_o itself_o that_o righteousness_n shall_v be_v iniquity_n even_o so_o be_v the_o gospel_n a_o

6._o phil._n 3._o 9_o esa_n 64._o 6._o disclaim_v his_o own_o defile_a righteousness_n and_o by_o faith_n lay_v hold_v on_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n which_o be_v only_o by_o christ_n or_o

of_o christ_n viz._n the_o gospel_n teach_v a_o mystical_a righteousness_n so_o the_o pope_n be_v antichrist_n not_o only_o because_o he_o be_v a_o adversary_n in_o exalt_v himself_o above_o all_o that_o be_v call_v god_n though_o he_o pretend_v to_o be_v the_o servant_n of_o servant_n but_o also_o because_o his_o doctrine_n be_v a_o mystical_a iniquity_n here_o it_o be_v to_o be_v remember_v
