human_a capacity_n may_v mistake_v and_o err_v and_o so_o do_v st_n peter_n but_o not_o fundamental_o yet_o as_o supreme_a head_n in_o his_o catholic_n capacity_n quatenus_fw-la in_fw-la

catholic_n church_n to_o pass_v a_o final_a judgement_n of_o determination_n in_o all_o cause_n and_o controversy_n to_o be_v a_o ne_fw-fr plus_fw-la ultra_fw-la to_o all_o appeal_n and_o litigation_n in_o the_o church_n so_o that_o in_o the_o first_o place_n he_o be_v not_o infallible_a in_o his_o human_a capacity_n and_o yet_o he_o find_v his_o infallibility_n on_o his_o wisdom_n holiness_n and_o justice_n which_o be_v human_a and_o personal_a perfection_n in_o his_o public_a capacity_n he_o will_v have_v he_o infallible_a in_o the_o chair_n but_o yet_o it_o be_v but_o a_o comparative_a infallibility_n which_o be_v none_o at_o all_o then_o his_o infallibility_n be_v not_o a_o infallibility_n in_o judge_v but_o a_o power_n to_o make_v a_o final_a determination_n whether_o it_o be_v right_a or_o wrong_n and_o any_o man_n may_v have_v this_o power_n as_o well_o as_o the_o pope_n especial_o since_o he_o be_v not_o entrust_v with_o this_o power_n by_o christ_n but_o by_o the_o catholic_n church_n that_o be_v too_o only_o by_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n for_o no_o other_o church_n entrust_v he_o with_o it_o and_o thus_o he_o quit_v all_o divine_a claim_n to_o infallibility_n and_o the_o pope_n be_v no_o more_o infallible_a than_o the_o church_n can_v make_v he_o by_o entrust_v he_o with_o a_o final_a decision_n of_o controversy_n at_o all_o adventure_n and_o therefore_o he_o add_v we_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o believe_v his_o judgement_n be_v infallible_o true_a but_o be_v to_o subscribe_v to_o it_o as_o the_o last_o because_o we_o can_v have_v no_o further_o and_o high_a appeal_n on_o earth_n that_o be_v we_o must_v subscribe_v to_o it_o whether_o we_o believe_v it_o true_a or_o not_o which_o be_v a_o admirable_a sort_n of_o infallibility_n thus_o he_o say_v the_o english_a clergy_n subscribe_v the_o 39_o article_n not_o that_o they_o believe_v they_o as_o they_o common_o say_v to_o be_v true_a and_o orthodox_n but_o because_o they_o be_v the_o last_o

emcolumenti_fw-la by_o which_o what_o he_o mean_v can_v guess_v but_o be_o very_o much_o of_o his_o mind_n that_o upon_o the_o same_o ground_n be_v there_o no_o other_o reason_n of_o subscription_n they_o may_v subscribe_v to_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n but_o this_o be_v a_o scandal_n on_o the_o clergy_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n we_o subscribe_v to_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o doctrine_n and_o for_o my_o part_n i_o will_v not_o subscribe_v do_v i_o not_o think_v they_o true_a and_o this_o be_v false_a with_o reference_n to_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n which_o anathematize_n all_o person_n who_o do_v not_o own_o and_o acknowledge_v and_o believe_v all_o the_o article_n of_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n however_o infallibility_n be_v at_o a_o low_a ebb_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n when_o they_o can_v exact_v submission_n and_o subscription_n only_o upon_o protestant_a principle_n who_o pretend_v to_o no_o infallibility_n at_o all_o i_o have_v examine_v

to_o have_v burlesque_v infallibility_n as_o possible_o his_o author_n from_o who_o he_o transcribe_v do_v he_o can_v not_o have_v do_v it_o more_o effectual_o than_o by_o such_o principle_n as_o these_o 6._o his_o six_o argument_n in_o catholic_n hierarchy_n the_o seven_o etc._n for_o he_o have_v drop_v one_o from_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o church_n which_o he_o make_v a_o introduction_n

may_v be_v abundant_o evidence_v from_o these_o follow_a enumerated_a church_n necessity_n the_o necessity_n 1._o of_o a_o catholic_n judgement_n of_o schism_n 2._o of_o a_o catholic_n

shall_v brief_o consider_v they_o all_o 1._o the_o necessity_n of_o a_o catholic_n judgement_n of_o schism_n i_o e._n that_o there_o shall_v be_v some_o judge_n who_o be_v schismatic_n for_o otherwise_o 1._o patriarchal_a or_o national_a church_n may_v be_v schismatical_a and_o no_o competent_a remedy_n find_v for_o the_o say_a schism_n 2._o there_o can_v be_v no_o determination_n of_o a_o schism_n from_o the_o catholic_n church_n nor_o any_o proportionate_a punishment_n of_o it_o for_o a_o patriarch_n or_o national_a primate_n can_v be_v judicial_o proceed_v against_o but_o by_o a_o oecumenic_a pastor_n which_o i_o think_v be_v the_o same_o with_o the_o first_o for_o a_o national_a schism_n must_v be_v a_o schism_n from_o the_o catholic_n church_n or_o none_o since_o national_a church_n among_o we_o depend_v on_o no_o foreign_a patriarch_n 3._o because_o superior_a church_n be_v to_o judge_v the_o inferior_a no_o particular_a church_n have_v a_o absolute_a definitive_a power_n in_o itself_o but_o there_o lie_v a_o appeal_n against_o it_o to_o the_o catholic_n church_n and_o pastor_n which_o instead_o of_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o catholic_n pastor_n suppose_v that_o there_o be_v one_o for_o else_o there_o can_v lie_v no_o appeal_n to_o he_o 4._o that_o particular_a church_n will_v never_o agree_v about_o schism_n but_o the_o very_a dispute_n about_o schism_n will_v make_v schism_n without_o end_n now_o suppose_v a_o man_n shall_v turn_v the_o table_n and_o prove_v by_o this_o argument_n that_o there_o be_v no_o catholic_n pastor_n nor_o catholic_n judge_n of_o schism_n because_o there_o be_v and_o always_o have_v be_v schism_n in_o the_o christian_a church_n which_o it_o be_v impossible_a there_o shall_v be_v do_v the_o church_n know_v of_o such_o a_o catholic_a judge_n for_o how_o can_v there_o be_v any_o such_o dispute_n about_o schism_n if_o there_o be_v such_o a_o judge_n if_o you_o say_v that_o it_o be_v the_o not_o own_v such_o a_o judge_n which_o make_v the_o schism_n that_o may_v be_v true_a but_o it_o be_v true_a also_o that_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n the_o christian_a world_n do_v not_o know_v of_o any_o such_o judge_n for_o if_o they_o do_v they_o will_v own_v he_o and_o put_v a_o end_n to_o their_o schism_n if_o it_o be_v necessary_a there_o shall_v be_v such_o a_o catholic_n judge_n of_o schism_n i_o be_o sure_a it_o be_v necessary_a he_o shall_v be_v know_v or_o else_o as_o experience_n testify_v the_o dispute_v about_o such_o a_o judge_n will_v make_v more_o schism_n than_o such_o a_o unknown_a and_o disputable_a judge_n can_v ever_o end_v now_o since_o there_o either_o be_v no_o such_o catholic_n judge_n of_o schism_n or_o he_o be_v not_o sufficient_o know_v to_o all_o christian_n methinks_v it_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o such_o a_o catholic_n judge_n of_o schism_n for_o there_o be_v as_o much_o need_n ●e_n shall_v be_v know_v in_o order_n to_o put_v a_o end_n to_o schism_n as_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v such_o a_o judge_n and_o if_o the_o necessity_n of_o end_v schism_n prove_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v such_o a_o judge_n i_o be_o sure_a the_o continuance_n of_o schism_n prove_v as_o plain_o that_o he_o be_v not_o know_v because_o he_o can_v end_v they_o it_o be_v ridiculous_a to_o imagine_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v any_o

of_o such_o a_o judge_n to_o end_v schism_n when_o it_o be_v demonstrable_a from_o the_o continuance_n of_o these_o schism_n that_o the_o christian_a world_n know_v of_o no_o such_o judge_n and_o it_o
