A17261	Truth and falshood, or, A comparison betweene the truth now taught in England, and the doctrine of the Romish church: with a briefe confutation of that popish doctrine. Hereunto is added an answere to such reasons as the popish recusants alledge, why they will not come to our churches.

bellarmine_n reason_v thus_o eternal_a life_n be_v your_o wage_n therefore_o your_o work_n have_v deserve_v it_o the_o weakness_n of_o this_o argument_n appear_v at_o the_o first_o but_o yet_o for_o

who_o be_v the_o woorkeman_n his_o hire_n or_o wage_n be_v due_a to_o he_o for_o his_o work_n he_o have_v deserve_v it_o the_o other_o wage_n be_v due_a also_o and_o he_o may_v challenge_v it_o not_o

therefore_o the_o work_n be_v meritorious_a the_o scripture_n we_o confess_v use_v often_o so_o to_o speak_v but_o not_o to_o establish_v merit_n but_o to_o shake_v off_o security_n and_o to_o this_o

to_o god_n namely_o such_o as_o despise_v wilful_o god_n word_n and_o contemn_v his_o sacrament_n yet_o i_o may_v be_v bold_a to_o affirm_v that_o the_o magistrate_n who_o will_v suffer_v unpunished_a the_o break_n of_o the_o first_o table_n of_o the_o commandment_n do_v show_v therein_o no_o great_a zeal_n to_o their_o high_a lord_n and_o master_n and_o here_o will_v i_o wish_v this_o one_o

that_o be_v no_o go_n hereby_o two_o commodity_n i_o doubt_v not_o will_v ensue_v first_o that_o the_o papist_n shall_v be_v know_v to_o be_v as_o they_o be_v idolater_n and_o worshipper_n of_o

to_o call_v upon_o stock_n and_o stone_n as_o now_o they_o do_v for_o to_o defile_v the_o land_n with_o their_o manifest_a idolatry_n why_o shall_v not_o we_o account_v it_o a_o sin_n worthy_a of_o
