A16691	The rasing of the foundations of Brovvnisme Wherein, against all the writings of the principall masters of that sect, those chiefe conclusions in the next page, are, (amongst sundry other matters, worthie the readers knowledge) purposely handled, and soundely prooued. Also their contrarie arguments and obiections deliberately examined, and clearly refelled by the word of God.	Bredwell, Stephen.	1588 (1588)	STC 3599; ESTC S106388	120,820	166

judgement_n which_o a_o particular_a christian_a being_n less_o subject_a unto_o it_o be_v therefore_o less_o likely_a equal_a or_o probable_a that_o he_o shall_v fail_v and_o for_o more_o proof_n
