A16643	A plaine confutation of a treatise of Brovvnisme, published by some of that faction, entituled: A description of the visible Church In the confutation wherof, is shewed, that the author hath neither described a true gouerment of the Church, nor yet proued, that outward discipline is the life of the Church. Whereunto is annexed an ansvvere vnto two other pamphlets, by the said factioners latelie dispersed, of certaine conferences had with some of them in prison. Wherein is made knowen the inconstancie of this sect, what the articles are which they still maintaine: as also a short confutation of them. There is also added a short ansvvere vnto such argumentes as they haue vsed to proue the Church of England not to be the Church of God.	Alison, Richard, controversialist.	1590 (1590)	STC 355; ESTC S100153	67,007	148

though_o he_o affirm_v that_o discipline_n be_v all_o in_o all_o yet_o the_o place_n note_v by_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o power_n of_o christ_n in_o his_o servant_n overcome_v satan_n do_v not_o once_o

now_o this_o power_n which_o christ_n have_v give_v unto_o his_o church_n and_o to_o every_o member_n of_o his_o church_n to_o keep_v it_o in_o order_n he_o have_v not_o leave_v it_o to_o their_o

to_o which_o it_o be_v use_v answer_n god_n have_v in_o deed_n commit_v authority_n unto_o his_o church_n of_o bind_v and_o lose_v and_o have_v also_o show_v a_o order_n of_o proceed_v which_o

may_v seem_v great_a than_o it_o be_v but_o here_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v that_o christ_n be_v say_v to_o have_v give_v this_o power_n aforesaid_a to_o every_o member_n of_o the_o church_n so_o that_o here_o be_v no_o difference_n make_v between_o the_o people_n &_o the_o governor_n or_o at_o the_o jest_n i●_n he_o suppose_v a_o difference_n to_o be_v between_o they_o he_o have_v not_o set_v down_o how_o far_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o people_n be_v extend_v again_o if_o the_o people_n be_v grant_v so_o great_a a_o interest_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o church_n we_o must_v think_v that_o the_o officer_n themselves_o i_o mean_v the_o deacon_n &_o releever_n be_v not_o to_o be_v seclude_v which_o be_v grant_v and_o seem_v here_o to_o be_v conclude_v not_o only_o woman_n have_v

that_o the_o censure_n of_o the_o church_n ought_v to_o be_v use_v with_o all_o fidelity_n we_o do_v not_o gainsay_v he_o but_o if_o he_o mean_v that_o when_o they_o be_v not_o due_o execute_v there_o the_o church_n do_v cease_v to_o be_v the_o church_n apparent_a according_a to_o that_o doctrine_n which_o in_o another_o place_n they_o have_v set_v down_o then_o do_v they_o agree_v with_o the_o anabaptist_n &_o donatist_n herein_o 2._o who_o be_v sufficient_o answer_v the_o one_o by_o bullinger_n the_o other_o by_o augustine_n i_o marvel_v that_o these_o man_n shall_v not_o be_v satisfy_v and_o content_v to_o revoke_v this_o error_n the_o sum_n of_o who_o answer_n tend_v to_o this_o that_o the_o end_n of_o excommunication_n for_o the_o question_n be_v not_o of_o the_o officer_n but_o of_o the_o church_n censure_v in_o this_o place_n be_v that_o the_o party_n punish_v may_v be_v amend_v that_o the_o credit_n of_o the_o church_n may_v be_v further_v that_o other_o be_v not_o
