life_n unto_o it_o such_o as_o follow_v s._n paul_n direction_n do_v first_o try_v all_o thing_n deliberate_o and_o then_o choose_v what_o in_o their_o conscience_n they_o think_v be_v best_a or_o they_o be_v such_o as_o for_o want_v of_o the_o love_n of_o the_o truth_n god_n suffer_v to_o fall_v into_o strong_a delusion_n to_o fall_v to_o a_o false_a religion_n because_o they_o bring_v not_o forth_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o true_a to_o make_v shipwreck_n of_o their_o faith_n because_o they_o have_v cast_v away_o a_o good_a conscience_n to_o have_v their_o eye_n blind_v and_o their_o light_n take_v away_o because_o they_o make_v not_o the_o right_a use_n of_o it_o but_o be_v idle_a and_o unprofitable_a and_o set_v their_o heart_n upon_o vanity_n and_o have_v only_o a_o form_n of_o religion_n but_o deny_v the_o effect_n of_o it_o in_o their_o life_n and_o conversation_n in_o a_o word_n such_o as_o be_v betray_v to_o their_o error_n and_o keep_v for_o ever_o in_o it_o either_o by_o negligence_n in_o seek_v the_o truth_n or_o unwillingness_n to_o find_v it_o or_o by_o some_o other_o voluntary_a sin_n and_o for_o these_o i_o dare_v not_o flatter_v they_o with_o hope_n of_o pardon_n but_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o it_o be_v not_o the_o error_n of_o the_o understanding_n but_o the_o sin_n of_o their_o will_n that_o true_o and_o proper_o damn_v they_o but_o for_o the_o former_a i_o be_o confident_a that_o nothing_o be_v more_o contumelious_a to_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n than_o to_o think_v that_o he_o will_v damn_v any_o such_o for_o he_o shall_v damn_v man_n that_o true_o love_v he_o and_o desire_v to_o serve_v he_o for_o do_v that_o which_o all_o thing_n consider_v be_v impossible_a for_o they_o not_o to_o do_v obj._n if_o it_o be_v say_v that_o pride_n of_o their_o own_o understanding_n make_v they_o not_o submit_v to_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o to_o her_o guidance_n and_o that_o for_o this_o be_v a_o voluntary_a sin_n they_o may_v be_v just_o damn_v ans._n i_o answer_v that_o whether_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v the_o guide_n of_o all_o man_n be_v the_o question_n and_o therefore_o not_o to_o be_v beg_v but_o prove_v that_o the_o man_n we_o speak_v of_o be_v very_o willing_a to_o follow_v this_o guide_n can_v he_o find_v any_o good_a ground_n to_o believe_v it_o be_v his_o guide_n and_o therefore_o the_o reason_n he_o follow_v she_o not_o be_v not_o pride_n but_o ignorance_n that_o as_o it_o be_v humility_n to_o obey_v those_o who_o god_n have_v set_v over_o we_o so_o it_o be_v credulity_n to_o follow_v every_o one_o that_o will_v take_v upon_o he_o to_o lead_v we_o that_o if_o the_o blind_a lead_v the_o blind_a not_o only_o the_o leader_n but_o the_o follower_n shall_v perish_v last_o that_o the_o present_a church_n of_o rome_n pretend_v very_o little_a and_o indeed_o nothing_o of_o moment_n to_o get_v the_o office_n of_o be_v head_n and_o guide_n of_o the_o church_n which_o antichrist_n when_o he_o come_v may_v not_o and_o will_v not_o make_v use_n of_o for_o the_o very_a same_o end_n and_o purpose_n and_o therefore_o he_o have_v reason_n not_o to_o be_v too_o sudden_a and_o precipitate_a in_o commit_v himself_o to_o the_o conduct_n of_o the_o pope_n for_o fear_v of_o mistake_v antichrist_n for_o the_o vicar_n of_o christ._n obj._n but_o in_o all_o commonwealth_n it_o be_v necessary_a there_o shall_v be_v not_o only_o a_o law_n for_o man_n to_o live_v by_o but_o also_o a_o live_n and_o speak_v judge_n to_o decide_v their_o difference_n arise_v about_o the_o various_a interpretation_n of_o the_o law_n and_o otherwise_o controversy_n will_v be_v endless_a therefore_o if_o such_o a_o judge_n be_v so_o necessary_a in_o civil_a affair_n for_o the_o procure_n and_o preserve_v our_o temporal_a peace_n and_o happiness_n how_o much_o more_o necessary_a be_v he_o for_o the_o decide_n of_o those_o controversy_n that_o concern_v the_o save_n and_o damn_v of_o our_o soul_n for_o ever_o ans._n hereunto_o i_o answer_v 1._o that_o if_o it_o be_v as_o evident_a and_o certain_a that_o god_n have_v appoint_v the_o pope_n or_o church_n of_o rome_n to_o be_v the_o guide_n of_o faith_n and_o judge_n of_o controversy_n as_o that_o the_o king_n have_v appoint_v such_o a_o one_o to_o be_v lord_n chief_a justice_n the_o have_v of_o such_o a_o guide_n will_v be_v very_o available_a for_o to_o preserve_v the_o church_n in_o unity_n and_o to_o conduct_v man_n soul_n to_o heaven_n but_o a_o judge_n that_o have_v no_o better_a title_n or_o evidence_n to_o his_o place_n than_o the_o pope_n have_v to_o that_o which_o he_o pretend_v to_o a_o judge_n that_o be_v doubtful_a and_o just_o questionable_a whether_o he_o be_v the_o judge_n or_o no_o be_v in_o all_o probability_n likely_a to_o produce_v clean_o contrary_a effect_n and_o to_o be_v himself_o one_o of_o the_o apple_n of_o strife_n one_o of_o the_o great_a subject_n of_o controversy_n and_o occasion_n of_o dissension_n and_o to_o avoid_v this_o great_a inconvenience_n if_o god_n have_v intend_v the_o pope_n or_o church_n of_o rome_n for_o this_o great_a office_n certain_o he_o will_v have_v say_v so_o very_o plain_o and_o very_o frequent_o if_o not_o frequent_o certain_o sometime_o once_o at_o least_o he_o will_v have_v say_v so_o in_o express_a term_n but_o he_o do_v not_o say_v so_o no_o not_o so_o much_o as_o once_o nor_o any_o thing_n from_o whence_o it_o may_v be_v collect_v with_o any_o sure_a or_o firm_a consequence_n therefore_o if_o it_o be_v not_o certain_a certain_o it_o be_v very_o probabâle_a he_o never_o mean_v so_o again_o in_o civil_a controversy_n the_o case_n can_v hardly_o be_v so_o put_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v any_o necessity_n that_o the_o same_o man_n shall_v be_v judge_n and_o party_n but_o in_o matter_n of_o religion_n wherein_o all_o have_v equal_a interest_n every_o man_n be_v a_o party_n and_o engage_v to_o judge_v for_o temporal_a respect_n this_o way_n or_o that_o way_n and_o therefore_o not_o fit_a to_o be_v a_o judge_n but_o what_o then_o if_o he_o which_o be_v with_o so_o much_o clamour_n and_o so_o little_a reason_n vouch_v for_o the_o infallibility_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n do_v tell_v you_o plain_o there_o be_v no_o live_a judge_n on_o earth_n appoint_v by_o god_n to_o decide_v the_o controversy_n arise_v among_o christian_n nor_o no_o way_n to_o determine_v they_o but_o scripture_n his_o word_n be_v express_v and_o formal_a and_o need_v no_o other_o commentary_n but_o a_o true_a interpretation_n
