wound_a their_o own_o religion_n with_o their_o own_o hand_n see_v all_o the_o reformation_n as_o they_o term_v it_o which_o they_o have_v make_v of_o our_o catholic_a faith_n consist_v only_o in_o certain_a pretend_a sequence_n and_o inferentiall_a deduction_n out_o of_o the_o scripture_n if_o the_o minister_n here_o reply_n that_o diverse_a catholic_a author_n for_o all_o be_v not_o of_o that_o opinion_n do_v teach_v that_o necessary_a and_o inevitable_a consequence_n deduce_v out_o of_o the_o write_a word_n be_v to_o be_v take_v as_o article_n of_o faith_n then_o may_v you_o say_v first_o admitting_z so_o much_o yet_o such_o consequence_n be_v not_o scripture_n and_o therefore_o what_o be_v prove_v only_o by_o they_o be_v prove_v by_o that_o which_o be_v not_o scripture_n next_o demand_n of_o your_o minister_n if_o he_o ground_n himself_o herein_o upon_o the_o authority_n of_o some_o particular_a catholic_a writer_n if_o he_o do_v then_o follow_v it_o that_o he_o ground_n his_o article_n of_o faith_n not_o upon_o the_o scripture_n which_o by_o his_o own_o doctrine_n he_o shall_v do_v but_o upon_o the_o judgement_n of_o certain_a man_n and_o such_o who_o at_o other_o time_n he_o absolute_o reject_v with_o all_o contempt_n and_o scorn_n and_o here_o he_o be_v to_o note_v that_o catholic_n as_o not_o hold_v the_o write_a word_n to_o be_v the_o sole_a rule_n of_o faith_n may_v without_o contradict_v themselves_o teach_v the_o foresay_a opinion_n which_o the_o protestant_n can_v defend_v without_o main_o impugn_v and_o cross_v his_o former_a doctrine_n of_o the_o scripture_n be_v the_o sole_a judge_n of_o faith_n since_o as_o i_o have_v say_v the_o scripture_n in_o no_o place_n affirm_v that_o consequence_n draw_v out_o of_o itself_o be_v to_o be_v receive_v as_o article_n of_o faith_n if_o our_o minister_n second_o reply_n that_o our_o saviour_n himself_o in_o matthew_n 22._o have_v argue_v from_o consequence_n of_o scripture_n and_o proove_v thereby_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a you_o be_v to_o answer_v thereto_o first_o that_o christ_n our_o lord_n by_o draw_v any_o consequence_n from_o scripture_n do_v make_v the_o same_o consequence_n to_o become_v scripture_n since_o whatsoever_o he_o say_v which_o be_v record_v by_o the_o evangelist_n be_v thereby_o become_v scripture_n second_o say_v that_o it_o be_v a_o article_n of_o faith_n to_o believe_v that_o our_o saviour_n conclude_v true_o whatsoever_o he_o deduce_v from_o the_o scripture_n by_o consequence_n since_o the_o scripture_n witness_v that_o he_o enjoy_v a_o infallible_a assistance_n of_o god_n neither_o of_o which_o privilege_n can_v our_o poor_a minister_n assume_v to_o himself_o three_o say_v it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a be_v a_o article_n of_o faith_n but_o the_o scripture_n say_v not_o that_o it_o be_v a_o article_n of_o faith_n in_o that_o it_o be_v prove_v by_o consequence_n from_o scripture_n which_o be_v the_o point_n only_o here_o question_v of_o 5._o 5._o in_o the_o five_o place_n you_o may_v put_v your_o minister_n in_o mind_n that_o every_o true_a consequence_n result_v out_o of_o two_o proposition_n put_v in_o good_a form_n of_o a_o syllogism_n according_a to_o the_o true_a rule_n of_o logic_n but_o the_o scripture_n deliver_v not_o any_o rule_n which_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o syllogism_n or_o other_o approve_a method_n of_o argue_v therefore_o it_o follow_v that_o when_o the_o minister_n labour_v to_o prove_v his_o article_n by_o consequence_n of_o scripture_n he_o prove_v not_o his_o article_n by_o only_a scripture_n since_o scripture_n as_o be_v say_v speak_v nothing_o of_o the_o form_n of_o consequence_n and_o consequent_o in_o his_o controversy_n of_o faith_n he_o rely_v not_o upon_o scripture_n as_o only_a judge_n as_o he_o promise_v in_o the_o beginning_n to_o do_v but_o rather_o upon_o aristotle_n who_o set_v down_o the_o true_a rule_n and_o precept_n to_o be_v observe_v in_o consequence_n or_o at_o the_o most_o he_o rely_v upon_o the_o scripture_n join_v with_o aristotle_n and_o then_o not_o upon_o scripture_n only_o 6._o 6._o in_o the_o sixth_o place_n demand_v of_o your_o minister_n who_o shall_v judge_v of_o the_o consequence_n which_o he_o deduce_v from_o scripture_n whether_o it_o be_v good_a or_o no_o as_o for_o example_n in_o the_o former_a allege_v illation_n concern_v christ_n body_n in_o the_o eucharist_n to_o wit_n the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v in_o heanen_n as_o we_o read_v in_o the_o act_n c._n 3._o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o upon_o the_o earth_n under_o the_o form_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n the_o protestant_n maintain_v this_o to_o be_v a_o good_a consequence_n we_o catholic_n deny_v it_o who_o must_v now_o judge_v whether_o it_o be_v a_o true_a or_o a_o vicious_a consequence_n if_o the_o scripture_n must_v be_v judge_n hereof_o then_o cause_v the_o minister_n to_o allege_v some_o text_n of_o scripture_n which_o according_a to_o our_o sectary_n be_v the_o rule_n of_o all_o truth_n in_o faith_n affirm_v the_o inference_n to_o be_v good_a if_o the_o protestant_a minister_n himself_o must_v judge_v of_o the_o goodness_n of_o the_o consequence_n and_o yet_o there_o be_v no_o more_o reason_n for_o he_o then_o for_o the_o catholic_a to_o judge_v thereof_o who_o then_o see_v not_o that_o the_o protestant_n under_o the_o pretext_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n make_v himself_o sole_a and_o last_o judge_n of_o scripture_n itself_o of_o consequence_n draw_v from_o the_o scripture_n and_o final_o of_o all_o controversy_n in_o faith_n and_o religion_n and_o here_o you_o may_v further_o add_v and_o demand_v how_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o a_o ignorant_a mechanical_a fellow_n who_o perhaps_o can_v write_v or_o read_v can_v have_v true_a faith_n of_o any_o point_n that_o be_v deduce_v by_o consequence_n from_o scripture_n since_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o judge_v whether_o the_o consequence_n be_v good_a or_o vicious_a especial_o where_o one_o of_o the_o proposition_n be_v take_v from_o the_o difficult_a ground_n of_o philosophy_n and_o then_o much_o less_o can_v he_o judge_v of_o the_o requisite_a form_n of_o syllogism_n he_o must_v not_o here_o insist_v upon_o the_o affiance_n he_o have_v of_o his_o minister_n learning_n who_o deduce_v this_o consequence_n see_v by_o so_o do_v he_o forsake_v the_o former_a principle_n of_o the_o protestant_n to_o wit_n that_o article_n of_o faith_n be_v to_o receive_v their_o proof_n not_o from_o man_n but_o only_o from_o the_o write_a word_n of_o god_n again_o see_v in_o the_o protestant_n censure_n the_o whole_a church_n of_o god_n may_v err_v as_o be_v afore_o urge_v in_o consequence_n draw_v from_o scripture_n and_o in_o article_n build_v upon_o the_o say_a consequence_n much_o more_o than_o may_v any_o one_o minister_n be_v deceive_v therein_o 7._o 7._o in_o the_o last_o place_n of_o all_o after_o the_o catholic_a have_v thus_o full_o show_v by_o several_a way_n that_o the_o minister_n many_o time_n in_o his_o proof_n have_v relinquish_v the_o scripture_n whereupon_o afore_o he_o

from_o which_o the_o minister_n consequence_n arise_v though_o perhaps_o it_o be_v better_a judgement_n to_o rest_v satisfy_v with_o the_o former_a victory_n as_o be_v more_o easy_o to_o be_v
