of_o all_o not_o that_o the_o rest_n do_v not_o answer_v but_o to_o avoid_v confusion_n he_o speak_v for_o they_o all_o ergo_fw-la christ_n speak_v to_o he_o in_o stead_n of_o they_o al._n second_o john_n 20._o 23._o he_o give_v it_o to_o they_o all_o not_o to_o peter_n alone_o and_o minister_n have_v that_o power_n convey_v from_o the_o apostle_n by_o virtue_n of_o christ_n promise_n mat._n 28._o he_o will_v be_v with_o they_o not_o only_o in_o their_o person_n but_o in_o they_o which_o follow_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n to_o they_o i_o say_v which_o shall_v preach_v and_o baptise_v as_o they_o do_v the_o second_o abuse_n be_v that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v turn_v the_o power_n of_o the_o key_n into_o the_o supremacy_n of_o the_o church_n for_o they_o make_v it_o a_o supremacy_n over_o all_o prince_n and_o church_n whereby_o they_o put_v up_o and_o pull_v down_o king_n and_o make_v law_n to_o bind_v all_o man_n conscience_n for_o it_o be_v a_o service_n and_o no_o supremacy_n the_o three_o abuse_n be_v that_o they_o will_v have_v only_o the_o clergy_n and_o not_o the_o prince_n to_o deal_v in_o matter_n of_o religion_n but_o we_o read_v the_o

of_o benjamin_n and_o judah_n to_o stand_v to_o his_o covenant_n his_o subject_n to_o obey_v his_o intent_n and_o this_o be_v commend_v in_o he_o but_o they_o say_v that_o prince_n have_v not_o the_o

have_v power_n to_o rule_v the_o church_n civil_o to_o cause_v their_o subject_n to_o embrace_v true_a religion_n and_o to_o forsake_v idolatry_n but_o then_o say_v some_o they_o shall_v be_v under_o the_o pastor_n answ._n if_o we_o consider_v the_o pastor_n person_n and_o good_n they_o be_v under_o the_o prince_n but_o as_o they_o bear_v the_o key_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o word_n the_o king_n must_v honour_v they_o for_o they_o stand_v in_o the_o stead_n of_o christ_n but_o to_o make_v the_o pastor_n above_o the_o prince_n be_v a_o ready_a way_n to_o get_v all_o into_o his_o hand_n and_o a_o great_a abuse_n in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n the_o four_o abuse_n be_v that_o the_o romish_a church_n have_v turn_v the_o power_n of_o the_o key_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o their_o priest_n in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o penance_n for_o every_o popish_a priest_n sit_v as_o judge_v and_o every_o man_n come_v to_o he_o kneel_v to_o he_o confess_v all_o his_o sin_n he_o can_v remember_v against_o every_o commandment_n he_o injoin_v he_o to_o bewail_v they_o and_o after_o some_o sign_n of_o repentance_n he_o forgive_v the_o fault_n and_o that_o proper_o as_o god_n do_v yet_o after_o pardon_n he_o must_v undergo_v some_o temporal_a punishment_n for_o he_o forgive_v the_o fault_n only_o not_o the_o punishment_n in_o which_o abuse_n note_v these_o error_n first_o there_o be_v confession_n of_o all_o sin_n which_o have_v no_o warrant_n in_o the_o word_n second_o he_o give_v absolution_n proper_o as_o god_n do_v rob_v christ_n of_o his_o honour_n for_o even_o the_o pharisee_n confess_v that_o god_n alone_o forgive_v sin_n
of_o great_a superstition_n s._n john_n will_v not_o have_v leave_v all_o company_n of_o man_n but_o that_o he_o be_v compel_v to_o leave_v they_o then_o the_o life_n of_o those_o which_o voluntary_o
