pastor_n and_o mynister_n as_o be_v almost_o faithless_a but_o some_o man_n will_v peradventure_o contrary_n i_o and_o say_v that_o they_o believe_v to_o be_v save_v by_o chryste_n benefit_n well_o that_o i_o stand_v not_o in_o this_o point_n with_o you_o admit_v that_o it_o be_v so_o as_o you_o say_v now_o believe_v they_o s._n paul_n where_o he_o affirm_v that_o whorekeper_n and_o adulterer_n

these_o man_n be_v of_o that_o number_a who_o paul_n deni_v shall_v be_v inheritor_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n or_o the_o holy_a ghoost_n rather_o the_o thing_n must_v be_v grant_v of_o necessity_n which_o can_v be_v deny_v in_o no_o wise_n how_o can_v they_o promise_v themselves_o salvation_n in_o christ_n by_o this_o reason_n than_o they_o believe_v that_o they_o themselves_o shall_v be_v save_v and_o whorkeper_n such_o as_o they_o be_v in_o very_a deed_n shall_v be_v condemn_v lord_n for_o thy_o mercy_n what_o ignorant_a blynde_n be_v here_o what_o lack_v of_o judgement_n be_v this_o do_v they_o not_o see_v plain_o that_o the●_n speak_v contrary_n if_o they_o may_v hau●_n any_o sure_a hope_n to_o be_v save_v than_o tha●_n that_o paul_n write_v unto_o the_o ephe●ans_n be_v false_a but_o if_o that_o be_v a_o great●_n oversyghte_n and_o a_o absurd_a thyng●_n to_o affirm_v these_o man_n can_v conceive_v no_o certain_a and_o assure_a hope_n or_o trust_v that_o the_o

see_v how_o strong_a and_o pithy_a our_o reason_n be_v the_o first_o part_n in_o logic_n term_v mayor_n be_v take_v out_o of_o s._n paul_n for_o he_o say_v that_o whoorekeper_n and_o adulterer_n

whoredom_n be_v banish_v man_n out_o of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n all_o man_n though_o they_o be_v but_o sklend_a logician_n see_v very_o well_o that_o this_o be_v a_o necessary_a conclusion_n which_o be_v bring_v in_o and_o gather_v of_o the_o former_a preposition_n which_o be_v manifest_a true_a and_o grant_v of_o our_o adversary_n this_o argument_n be_v fashion_v in_o the_o first_o

faith_n as_o they_o feygne_v though_o they_o brag_v and_o spread_v abroad_o certain_a uncredible_a tale_n of_o their_o faith_n but_o some_o man_n will_v peradventure_o object_n and_o say_v that_o it_o may_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o such_o as_o live_v wicked_o and_o ungodly_a this_o day_n may_v to_o morrow_n or_o after_o whe●_n it_o shall_v please_v the_o goodness_n of_o god_n repent_v and_o

true_o and_o unfeyned_o they_o repent_v for_o where_o have_v you_o see_v heretofore_o of_o many_o thousand_o but_o one_o which_o have_v such_o remorse_n of_o conscience_n have_v forsake_v his_o whore_n and_o ful_o purpose_v never_o after_o that_o time_n to_o company_n with_o she_o i_o wot_v well_o enough_o what_o i_o say_v for_o it_o be_v evident_a and_o know_v there_o be_v scarce_o one_o of_o every_o thousand_o that_o cast_v thus_o with_o himself_o for_o to_o amend_v his_o lyve_a and_o to_o forsake_v his_o whore_n in_o good_a earnest_n and_o with_o his_o heart_n but_o now_o to_o leave_v these_o thing_n how_o stynk_n and_o abominable_a be_v the_o outward_a face_n of_o that_o popyshe_a church_n wherein_o the_o superintendaunt●s_n 〈◊〉_d minister_n do_v live_v in_o such_o open_a

some_o region_n but_o without_o all_o question_n it_o be_v do_v in_o all_o land_n all_o place_n where_o so_o ever_o the_o pope_n be_v supreme_a head_n the_o bysshope_n themselves_o look_v on_o

live_v in_o most_o abominable_a whoredom_n they_o encourage_v they_o to_o take_v pleasure_n and_o delight_v in_o the_o thing_n and_o do_v set_v they_o forward_o who_o they_o ought_v to_o bridle_v and_o keep_v back_o yea_o they_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o though_o the_o preeste_n live_v in_o such_o abomination_n yet_o they_o think_v it_o no_o sin_n at_o all_o and_o themselves_o do_v minister_v to_o the_o same_o occasion_n by_o suffer_v they_o to_o continue_v obstinate_o in_o such_o whoredom_n of_o the_o which_o one_o thing_n as_o of_o their_o other_o cure_n and_o offyce_v they_o shall_v render_v a_o straight_o account_v and_o reckon_v but_o here_o some_o man_n will_v axe_n i_o what_o be_v the_o bishops_n dewtye_n in_o this_o behalf_n i_o will_v tell_v you_o it_o be_v none_o other_o but_o this_o not_o to_o wink_v and_o dissemble_v in_o such_o abominacyon_n as_o s._n paul_n exort_v neither_o yet_n to_o permit_v it_o or_o bear_v with_o it_o first_o they_o shall_v admonish_v they_o and_o reprove_v the_o vice_n of_o whoredom_n than_o if_o they_o profyte_v nothing_o by_o so_o do_v the_o next_o remedy_n be_v to_o put_v they_o out_o and_o let_v they_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v in_o the_o congregation_n and_o to_o excominicate_v they_o out_o of_o their_o temple_n and_o sacred_a place_n and_o to_o cast_v out_o of_o the_o assemble_v of_o faithful_a man_n such_o as_o be_v adjudge_v

i_o say_v that_o this_o be_v their_o office_n if_o they_o shall_v execute_v the_o same_o and_o approve_v their_o do_n in_o the_o lord_n sight_n which_o be_v the_o self_n same_o judge_n that_o will_v require_v and_o have_v a_o account_n of_o all_o their_o do_n they_o shall_v show_v themselves_o author_n and_o example_n gyvers_a of_o good_a work_n and_o a_o example_n of_o the_o faith_n full_a aswell_o in_o their_o communication_n and_o conversation_n as_o also_o in_o love_n spirit_n faith_n and_o pureness_n of_o life_n but_o sith_o that_o now_o a_o day_n the_o bishop_n common_o show_v themselves_o such_o to_o the_o inferior_a sort_n of_o the_o clergy_n yea_o and_o rather_o worse_o than_o the_o same_o be_v by_o their_o example_n they_o do●_n not_o only_a cause_n but_o also_o
