say_v that_o the_o roman_n catholic_n religion_n do_v not_o err_v against_o any_o fundamental_a point_n precise_o because_o it_o hold_v all_o the_o fundamental_a point_n of_o the_o true_a religion_n for_o a_o religion_n may_v contradict_v itself_o and_o err_v against_o that_o very_a point_n which_o it_o hold_v certain_o a_o religion_n which_o shall_v deny_v christ_n to_o be_v god_n will_v err_v

church_n to_o be_v so_o according_a to_o the_o same_o method_n we_o convince_v at_o once_o the_o truth_n of_o all_o our_o article_n of_o faith_n for_o we_o have_v show_v that_o whatsoever_o the_o roman_a church_n teach_v as_o a_o article_n of_o faith_n be_v true_a otherwise_o it_o will_v not_o be_v a_o true_a church_n and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o article_n of_o faith_n which_o be_v not_o

that_o we_o may_v prove_v some_o particular_a point_n this_o way_n also_o yet_o we_o have_v insinuate_v above_o in_o the_o six_o point_n how_o we_o may_v apply_v this_o general_a way_n to_o decide_v any_o particular_a question_n concern_v matter_n of_o faith_n wherein_o the_o party_n with_o who_o we_o deal_v desire_v satisfaction_n again_o the_o same_o method_n will_v teach_v we_o how_o we_o
