the_o new_a sense_n of_o our_o malignant_a divine_n shall_v be_v black_a policy_n not_o sound_a divinity_n if_o any_o jerimiah_n or_o prophet_n shall_v say_v amend_v your_o way_n and_o turn_n to_o the_o lord_n with_o all_o your_o heart_n and_o put_v away_o your_o idol_n and_o your_o strange_a god_n provide_v the_o king_n will_v go_v before_o you_o and_o command_v you_o so_o to_o do_v hence_o i_o say_v that_o be_v a_o poor_a court-argument_n of_o parasite_n for_o king_n we_o never_o read_v of_o any_o reformation_n of_o religion_n in_o israel_n and_o judah_n but_o when_o holy_a and_o zealous_a king_n command_v the_o reformation_n ergo_fw-la the_o reformation_n begin_v in_o scotland_n without_o the_o consent_n of_o the_o supreme_a magistrate_n and_o a_o reformation_n now_o prosecute_v in_o england_n against_o the_o king_n will_v be_v unlawful_a to_o which_o i_o desire_v the_o malignant_a divine_n to_o receive_v these_o answer_n for_o justify_v the_o zeal_n of_o both_o kingdom_n in_o their_o reformation_n 1._o it_o be_v a_o question_n if_o they_o question_v not_o the_o reformation_n according_a to_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o action_n that_o be_v if_o they_o be_v not_o offend_v that_o the_o queen_n mass_n the_o popery_n of_o prelate_n and_o divine_n under_o their_o wing_n and_o their_o arminianism_n and_o socinianism_n shall_v be_v abolish_v or_o if_o they_o condemn_v not_o the_o doctrine_n but_o question_v only_o the_o manner_n of_o abolish_n such_o heterodox_n stuff_n if_o the_o former_a be_v say_v i●_n be_v know_v never_o malignant_a prelate_n or_o other_o have_v grace_n by_o word_n or_o write_v to_o entreat_v his_o majesty_n for_o a_o reformation_n and_o this_o be_v enough_o for_o the_o former_a if_o they_o mean_v the_o latter_a they_o be_v very_o like_o the_o pharisee_n who_o when_o they_o dare_v not_o question_v the_o doctrine_n and_o miracle_n of_o christ_n they_o only_o question_v the_o manner_n of_o do_v and_o say_v by_o what_o authority_n do_v thou_o these_o but_o because_o they_o be_v join_v to_o the_o papist_n side_n and_o fight_v under_o their_o banner_n it_o be_v most_o evident_a it_o gall_v their_o stomach_n that_o popery_n atminianisine_n and_o socinianism_n be_v cry_v down_o else_o the_o manner_n of_o do_v a_o good_a work_n and_o such_o a_o necessary_a work_n as_o reformation_n will_v not_o have_v offend_v they_o so_o high_o as_o to_o move_v they_o to_o kill_v the_o people_n of_o god_n a_o error_n in_o the_o circumstance_n of_o a_o good_a work_n be_v very_o venial_a to_o papist_n and_o arminian_n 2._o let_v they_o give_v to_o we_o since_o they_o argue_v from_o a_o practice_n a_o warrant_n of_o any_o such_o practice_n where_o a_o whole_a land_n go_v on_o in_o a_o negative_a reformation_n without_o the_o prince_n ergo_fw-la negative_a precept_n by_o this_o logic_n shall_v lay_v no_o divine_a obligation_n on_o we_o except_o it_o be_v the_o king_n will_n to_o forbid_v that_o which_o god_n forbid_v then_o suppose_v episcopacy_n and_o the_o ceremony_n be_v the_o idol_n of_o the_o mass_n establish_v by_o a_o stand_a law_n it_o shall_v be_v unlawful_a for_o the_o kingdom_n to_o forbear_v and_o

reservation_n of_o the_o king_n will_v 3._o this_o be_v a_o argument_n negative_a from_o one_o particular_a in_o scripture_n and_o therefore_o not_o concludent_fw-la for_o it_o be_v thus_o reformation_n without_o the_o king_n want_v a_o practice_n in_o the_o scripture_n ergo_fw-la it_o be_v unlawful_a it_o follow_v not_o except_o it_o want_v precept_n promise_v and_o practice_n for_o the_o argument_n negative_a from_o scripture_n be_v only_o undeniable_a in_o this_o sense_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n only_o press_v by_o our_o divine_n against_o papist_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v like_o this_o argument_n purgatory_n be_v not_o command_v in_o this_o chapter_n idolatry_n be_v not_o forbid_v in_o this_o commandment_n ergo_fw-la neither_o purgatory_n nor_o idolatry_n be_v forbid_v in_o god_n word_n so_o let_v the_o adversary_n give_v i_o a_o practice_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n where_o a_o brother_n keep_v this_o order_n of_o christ_n three_o step_n mat._n 18._o first_o to_o

so_o where_o read_v you_o a_o man_n forgive_a his_o brother_n seventy_o seven_o time_n ergo_fw-la it_o be_v unlawful_a to_o forgive_v he_o seventy_o and_o seven_o time_n where_o read_v you_o that_o

hence_o ground_n to_o infer_v then_o must_v all_o war_n be_v unlawful_a to_o christian_n for_o we_o can_v produce_v warrantable_a precept_n where_o we_o want_v practice_v four_o where_o it_o be_v
