of_o heresy_n for_o she_o never_o can_v have_v a_o heretical_a faith_n if_o nothing_o can_v be_v the_o faith_n of_o the_o church_n but_o what_o be_v catholic_n which_o indeed_o be_v the_o only_a

the_o church_n of_o rome_n i_o think_v all_o different_a church_n or_o communion_n of_o christian_n have_v be_v distinguish_v from_o each_o other_o by_o their_o article_n of_o faith_n and_o ecclesiastical_a policy_n their_o canon_n or_o law_n of_o discipline_n and_o if_o i_o will_v know_v what_o be_v the_o doctrine_n government_n or_o discipline_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n or_o of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n i_o must_v not_o inquire_v either_o what_o the_o scripture_n teach_v or_o what_o be_v teach_v many_o age_n since_o by_o the_o primitive_a father_n but_o must_v examine_v the_o authentic_a record_n of_o these_o church_n the_o decree_n of_o pope_n and_o council_n their_o article_n and_o canon_n for_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o know_v what_o be_v believe_v and_o practise_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n or_o england_n at_o this_o day_n but_o by_o such_o record_n what_o be_v the_o true_a catholic_n faith_n and_o what_o be_v the_o faith_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n or_o of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v two_o very_a different_a question_n and_o must_v be_v prove_v different_a way_n we_o must_v learn_v the_o catholic_n faith_n of_o the_o church_n from_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o scripture_n or_o the_o write_n of_o the_o primitive_a father_n but_o we_o must_v learn_v the_o faith_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n or_o england_n or_o any_o other_o church_n by_o their_o own_o write_n confirm_v by_o the_o high_a authority_n that_o be_v in_o such_o a_o church_n and_o therefore_o as_o we_o must_v learn_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n from_o our_o article_n and_o canon_n so_o we_o must_v learn_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n by_o the_o definition_n decree_n constitution_n canon_n of_o pope_n and_o council_n who_o authority_n be_v receive_v and_o acknowledge_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o as_o he_o who_o renounce_v the_o 39_o article_n or_o any_o of_o they_o do_v so_o

council_n so_o far_o forth_o renounce_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n the_o doctrine_n government_n and_o discipline_n of_o it_o and_o as_o it_o will_v be_v absurd_a to_o say_v that_o the_o church_n of_o england_n do_v not_o renounce_v transubstantiation_n because_o this_o author_n think_v it_o be_v a_o catholic_n doctrine_n so_o it_o be_v equal_o absurd_a to_o say_v that_o this_o doctrine_n of_o depose_v prince_n be_v not_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n though_o teach_v by_o pope_n and_o council_n that_o be_v by_o the_o high_a authority_n of_o that_o church_n because_o this_o author_n believe_v that_o notwithstanding_o what_o pope_n and_o council_n say_v it_o be_v not_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o universal_a church_n in_o all_o age_n which_o be_v a_o good_a reason_n indeed_o to_o prove_v that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o receive_v such_o doctrine_n though_o teach_v by_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n but_o be_v no_o proof_n that_o this_o be_v not_o teach_v by_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n thus_o it_o be_v nothing_o to_o the_o purpose_n as_o far_o as_o we_o be_v concern_v in_o this_o controversy_n whether_o pope_n or_o council_n be_v fallible_a or_o infallible_a whether_o what_o they_o decree_v be_v a_o article_n of_o faith_n or_o not_o whether_o it_o be_v true_a or_o false_a for_o if_o the_o pope_n and_o their_o council_n be_v the_o high_a authority_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n we_o must_v learn_v from_o they_o what_o be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v it_o true_a or_o false_a as_o we_o do_v what_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v from_o the_o article_n and_o canon_n agree_v on_o in_o convocation_n though_o we_o do_v not_o pretend_v that_o the_o convocation_n be_v infallible_a or_o that_o what_o they_o determine_v must_v be_v true_a because_o they_o determine_v it_o all_o the_o little_a not_o to_o say_v senseless_a distinction_n which_o this_o answerer_n use_v tend_v only_o to_o prove_v that_o what_o be_v decree_v by_o pope_n and_o council_n be_v not_o therefore_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n that_o be_v of_o the_o universal_a catholic_n church_n unless_o it_o have_v the_o confirmation_n of_o catholic_n tradition_n which_o i_o will_v easy_o grant_v he_o but_o yet_o it_o may_v and_o must_v be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o present_a church_n of_o rome_n if_o it_o be_v determine_v by_o all_o the_o authority_n that_o be_v in_o that_o church_n for_o that_o be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o any_o church_n which_o be_v agree_v on_o and_o determine_v by_o the_o high_a authority_n in_o it_o and_o i_o know_v no_o great_a authority_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n than_o that_o of_o pope_n and_o council_n and_o therefore_o the_o depose_v doctrine_n be_v define_v and_o decree_v by_o pope_n and_o council_n as_o he_o himself_o acknowledge_v must_v be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n 2._o no_o say_v this_o answerer_n council_n have_v make_v a_o canon_n for_o the_o depose_v heretical_a prince_n but_o have_v not_o define_v that_o the_o pope_n or_o council_n have_v authority_n to_o do_v it_o council_n use_v to_o define_v those_o thing_n 13._o which_o they_o intend_v we_o shall_v be_v oblige_v to_o believe_v to_o make_v a_o canon_n be_v one_o thing_n to_o define_v be_v another_o decree_v and_o suppose_v be_v plain_o not_o define_v and_o therefore_o this_o depose_v doctrine_n be_v no_o article_n of_o faith_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n nor_o be_v they_o bind_v to_o believe_v it_o because_o though_o it_o have_v be_v decree_v it_o have_v not_o be_v define_v in_o any_o council_n a_o admirable_a apology_n for_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n the_o council_n of_o lateran_n say_v this_o answerer_n make_v a_o decree_n concern_v deposition_n 14._o the_o council_n of_o lion_n assent_v to_o a_o actual_a deposition_n therefore_o they_o be_v both_o persuade_v they_o or_o the_o pope_n have_v power_n to_o depose_v ay_o for_o my_o part_n see_v not_o what_o more_o can_v be_v make_v of_o it_o and_o for_o my_o part_n i_o see_v not_o what_o more_o need_n be_v make_v of_o it_o to_o justify_v the_o doctor_n or_o any_o one_o else_o who_o charge_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n with_o the_o depose_v doctrine_n he_o may_v dispute_v with_o his_o adversary_n if_o he_o please_v whether_o such_o a_o depose_v canon_n prove_v the_o depose_v doctrine_n to_o be_v a_o article_n of_o faith_n but_o i_o think_v it_o be_v much_o at_o one_o whether_o a_o prince_n be_v depose_v by_o a_o article_n of_o faith_n or_o by_o a_o decree_n or_o canon_n if_o that_o canon_n which_o decree_v the_o depose_v of_o prince_n and_o absolve_v their_o subject_n from_o their_o allegiance_n teach_v subject_n to_o rebel_v and_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v make_v such_o a_o canon_n as_o evident_o they_o have_v if_o roman_n catholic_n general_a council_n be_v the_o representative_a of_o that_o church_n i_o think_v it_o do_v not_o mend_v the_o matter_n much_o whether_o the_o depose_v doctrine_n be_v a_o article_n of_o faith_n or_o not_o and_o yet_o i_o be_o not_o satisfy_v but_o that_o to_o decree_v what_o shall_v be_v do_v include_v a_o virtual_a definition_n of_o that_o doctrine_n on_o which_o that_o decree_n be_v found_v to_o decree_v that_o a_o heretical_a prince_n shall_v be_v depose_v signify_v something_o more_o than_o a_o bare_a definition_n that_o a_o heretical_a prince_n may_v be_v depose_v and_o i_o believe_v all_o mankind_n who_o have_v not_o lose_v common_a sense_n by_o metaphysical_a subtlety_n have_v always_o take_v it_o for_o grant_v that_o a_o decree_n include_v a_o definition_n nay_o to_o decree_n without_o a_o definition_n suppose_v the_o depose_v doctrine_n whereon_o the_o decree_n of_o deposition_n be_v found_v to_o be_v so_o universal_o receive_v and_o acknowledge_v that_o there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o a_o express_a definition_n which_o i_o think_v tie_v it_o as_o hard_a upon_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n as_o any_o definition_n can_v do_v the_o sum_n be_v this_o this_o answerer_n acknowledge_v that_o pope_n and_o council_n have_v decree_v the_o depose_v doctrine_n but_o will_v by_o no_o mean_n grant_v that_o this_o be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n there_o by_o meaning_n the_o universal_a church_n of_o all_o age_n nor_o that_o they_o

of_o rome_n have_v he_o ingenuous_o acknowledge_v that_o the_o depose_v doctrine_n have_v be_v decree_v and_o practise_v by_o their_o pope_n and_o general_a council_n that_o no_o pope_n or_o council_n since_o gregory_n the_o seven_o have_v ever_o condemn_v it_o that_o the_o jesuit_n do_v still_o maintain_v it_o and_o yet_o in_o the_o late_a censure_n of_o some_o other_o jesuitical_a doctrine_n the_o present_a pope_n think_v fit_a to_o let_v the_o depose_v doctrine_n escape_v without_o censure_n but_o notwithstanding_o this_o they_o do_v utter_o disow_v it_o and_o will_v do_v so_o though_o they_o know_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v define_v it_o or_o ever_o hereafter_o shall_v do_v so_o this_o have_v be_v something_o to_o the_o purpose_n to_o satisfy_v both_o prince_n and_o people_n of_o their_o loyalty_n but_o to_o say_v that_o this_o be_v not_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v to_o outface_v all_o mankind_n who_o have_v eye_n in_o their_o head_n and_o skill_n enough_o to_o read_v the_o decree_n of_o their_o pope_n and_o council_n and_o to_o find_v their_o loyalty_n upon_o this_o supposition_n that_o the_o depose_v doctrine_n be_v not_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n give_v too_o great_a a_o suspicion_n that_o if_o this_o be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n or_o ever_o shall_v be_v so_o or_o they_o shall_v ever_o be_v convince_v that_o be_v so_o than_o they_o will_v be_v for_o the_o depose_n of_o prince_n too_o and_o whatever_o some_o little_a inferior_a people_n in_o communion_n with_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n think_v of_o these_o matter_n while_o the_o govern_n part_n of_o the_o church_n believe_v otherwise_o as_o they_o certain_o do_v at_o this_o day_n if_o the_o pope_n and_o his_o adherent_n be_v the_o govern_v part_n prince_n have_v no_o security_n that_o pope_n will_v not_o challenge_v and_o exercise_v this_o authority_n but_o their_o want_n of_o power_n to_o do_v it_o and_o this_o i_o be_o sure_a be_v whole_o owe_v to_o the_o reformation_n for_o till_o prince_n have_v subject_n who_o value_v not_o the_o pope_n authority_n they_o themselves_o be_v the_o pope_n vassal_n and_o must_v necessary_o be_v so_o again_o can_v they_o extinguish_v this_o pestilent_a heresy_n the_o great_a fault_n of_o which_o be_v that_o it_o have_v give_v strength_n and_o security_n to_o prince_n by_o
