we_o never_o so_o much_o of_o her_o infallibility_n and_o unerring_a chair_n yet_o questionless_a there_o be_v none_o of_o our_o church_n no_o not_o the_o best_a of_o they_o that_o our_o saviour_n may_v not_o say_v to_o she_o habeo_fw-la adversus_fw-la te_fw-la pauca_fw-la i_o have_v a_o few_o thing_n against_o thou_o and_o as_o those_o several_a church_n though_o some_o of_o they_o very_o faulty_a yet_o be_v all_o several_a member_n of_o christ_n and_o help_v to_o make_v up_o one_o body_n why_o may_v it_o not_o be_v so_o in_o these_o church_n i_o speak_v of_o for_o first_o they_o all_o agree_v in_o that_o one_o and_o only_a foundation_n of_o religion_n jesus_n christ_n as_o the_o apostle_n call_v he_o no_o other_o foundation_n can_v any_o other_o man_n lay_v than_o that_o which_o be_v lay_v to_o wit_n jesus_n christ_n and_o this_o no_o doubt_n be_v a_o sure_a and_o good_a foundation_n and_o this_o make_v they_o to_o be_v christian_n church_n they_o be_v all_o baptize_v into_o christ_n and_o look_v to_o be_v save_v by_o his_o suffering_n and_o think_v not_o this_o to_o be_v a_o small_a matter_n for_o st._n paul_n desire_v to_o know_v nothing_o else_o i_o esteem_v not_o say_v he_o to_o know_v any_o thing_n among_o you_o but_o jesus_n christ_n and_o he_o crucify_v and_o it_o work_v upon_o his_o affection_n as_o much_o as_o upon_o his_o understanding_n god_n forbid_v that_o i_o shall_v rejoice_v say_v he_o save_v in_o the_o cross_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n gal._n 6.14_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n crucify_v beside_o this_o one_o foundation_n they_o all_o embrace_v the_o two_o testament_n the_o three_o creed_n and_o the_o four_o first_o general_a council_n and_o many_o other_o very_o material_a point_n the_o discord_n among_o we_o christian_n have_v be_v long_o ago_o object_v to_o we_o and_o certain_o there_o have_v nothing_o so_o much_o draw_v some_o out_o of_o the_o church_n and_o keep_v other_o from_o come_v into_o the_o church_n as_o these_o quarrel_n among_o ourselves_o unto_o who_o i_o brief_o answer_v if_o they_o like_v not_o our_o difference_n let_v they_o join_v with_o we_o in_o those_o thing_n wherein_o we_o agree_v and_o that_o be_v to_o be_v christian_n to_o believe_v in_o christ_n and_o he_o crucify_v and_o those_o other_o principal_a point_n whereof_o i_o speak_v and_o to_o strive_v to_o imitate_v christ_n to_o their_o power_n and_o then_o our_o discord_n will_v less_o trouble_v they_o it_o be_v true_a we_o have_v not_o all_o build_v alike_o upon_o this_o foundation_n but_o some_o no_o question_n have_v build_v wood_n and_o straw_n as_o well_o as_o silver_n and_o gold_n yet_o all_o of_o we_o no_o doubt_n do_v strive_v to_o imitate_v christ_n as_o near_o as_o we_o can_v both_o in_o our_o doctrine_n and_o in_o our_o practice_n and_o certain_o in_o these_o superstructure_n of_o religion_n good_a intention_n must_v go_v far_o or_o else_o it_o will_v go_v hard_a with_o many_o of_o we_o not_o that_o they_o altogether_o excuse_v the_o fault_n but_o doubtless_o they_o take_v off_o much_o from_o the_o punishment_n there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o east_n and_o west_n church_n in_o what_o kind_n of_o bread_n the_o eucharist_n be_v to_o be_v receive_v the_o east_n receive_v in_o unleavened_a bread_n the_o west_n in_o leaven_a bread_n and_o herein_o though_o they_o differ_v among_o themselves_o yet_o they_o both_o strive_v to_o imitate_v christ_n because_o the_o one_o church_n think_v our_o saviour_n use_v then_o the_o bread_n that_o be_v leaven_v the_o other_o that_o which_o be_v unleavened_a either_o church_n be_v the_o less_o unblamable_a because_o they_o think_v both_o that_o they_o follow_v our_o saviour_n example_n s._n austin_n in_o like_a manner_n do_v pretty_o reconcile_v a_o difference_n between_o some_o concern_v the_o time_n how_o often_o we_o shall_v receive_v the_o holy_a sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n for_o some_o it_o seem_v in_o his_o time_n think_v we_o be_v bind_v to_o receive_v the_o eucharist_n every_o day_n other_o but_o now_o and_o then_o some_o say_v he_o epist_n 118._o communicate_v daily_o other_o but_o upon_o certain_a day_n some_o will_v omít_v no_o day_n other_o will_v only_a receive_v on_o the_o sabbath_n and_o the_o lord_n day_n there_o be_v a_o freedom_n to_o be_v use_v in_o both_o these_o some_o will_v say_v we_o must_v not_o daily_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n because_o we_o ought_v to_o select_v and_o set_v apart_o some_o day_n wherein_o we_o must_v live_v more_o careful_o and_o religious_o and_o so_o come_v to_o the_o sacrament_n more_o worthy_o and_o with_o great_a devotion_n on_o the_o other_o side_n another_o tell_v we_o yea_o but_o if_o the_o plague_n sore_o of_o sin_n and_o violence_n of_o the_o disease_n beso_fw-es great_a and_o dangerous_a such_o sovereign_a medicine_n as_o these_o be_v not_o to_o be_v defer_v of_o both_o these_o say_v he_o jet_n every_o man_n take_v his_o choice_n and_o

rather_o both_o of_o they_o do_v strive_v to_o honour_v this_o save_a sacrament_n for_o zacheus_n rejoice_v great_o to_o entertain_v our_o saviour_n in_o his_o house_n the_o centurion_n say_v lord_n i_o be_o not_o worthy_a thou_o shall_v come_v under_o my_o roof_n both_o of_o these_o do_v worship_n and_o honour_v our_o saviour_n though_o after_o a_o diverse_a and_o as_o it_o be_v a_o contrary_a manner_n both_o of_o they_o be_v miserable_a by_o reason_n of_o sin_n both_o of_o they_o obtain_v mercy_n for_o their_o sin_n thus_o one_o man_n to_o honoun_n christ_n dare_v not_o receive_v every_o day_n another_o also_o to_o honour_n christ_n dare_v not_o omit_v any_o day_n and_o although_o these_o be_v but_o petty_a difference_n yet_o why_o may_v i_o not_o apply_v it_o to_o controversy_n of_o great_a moment_n especial_o see_v that_o ancient_a father_n s._n salvian_n lib._n 5._o de_fw-la providentia_fw-la have_v find_v a_o good_a intention_n in_o the_o arian_n the_o most_o pernicious_a and_o most_o dangerous_a heretic_n account_v that_o ever_o have_v be_v in_o the_o church_n they_o who_o we_o account_v heretic_n say_v he_o account_v not_o themselves_o heretic_n for_o they_o so_o much_o esteem_v themselves_o good_a catholic_n that_o they_o defame_v we_o with_o the_o note_n and_o appellation_n of_o heresy_n that_o therefore_o which_o they_o be_v to_o we_o the_o very_a same_o be_v we_o to_o they_o we_o be_v certain_a that_o they_o injure_v the_o divine_a generation_n in_o that_o they_o say_v the_o son_n be_v less_o and_o inferior_a to_o the_o father_n they_o think_v we_o likewise_o injurious_a to_o the_o father_n because_o we_o make_v the_o son_n equal_a unto_o he_o the_o true_a honour_n of_o god_n be_v among_o st_o we_o but_o they_o think_v that_o to_o be_v the_o honour_n of_o the_o deity_n to_o believe_v as_o they_o believe_v they_o be_v undutiful_a but_o they_o think_v it_o the_o great_a duty_n of_o their_o religion_n they_o be_v impious_a but_o they_o think_v this_o to_o be_v true_a piety_n they_o err_v therefore_o but_o they_o err_v with_o a_o very_a good_a mind_n and_o intention_n not_o with_o a_o hatred_n but_o with_o a_o good_a affection_n towards_o god_n very_o believe_v that_o they_o honour_n and_o love_n god_n although_o they_o have_v not_o the_o right_a faith_n yet_o they_o notwithstanding_o think_v this_o to_o be_v perfect_a love_n towards_o god_n in_o what_o manner_n they_o shall_v be_v punish_v in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n for_o this_o very_a error_n of_o false_a opinion_n no_o man_n can_v tell_v but_o the_o judge_n himself_o a_o good_a lesson_n for_o the_o hotspur_n of_o these_o time_n with_o who_o it_o be_v a_o very_a easy_a matter_n to_o pronounce_v damnation_n upon_o the_o very_a lest_o disagreement_n in_o religion_n whereas_o this_o good_a father_n will_v not_o determine_v any_o thing_n concern_v these_o great_a heretic_n the_o arrian_n but_o leave_v they_o to_o the_o mercy_n of_o the_o judge_n not_o be_v able_a to_o discern_v what_o they_o do_v deserve_v you_o see_v that_o this_o holy_a father_n find_v out_o a_o good_a intention_n even_o in_o these_o heretic_n and_o if_o there_o be_v a_o good_a intention_n among_o those_o that_o be_v so_o gross_o erroneous_a why_o may_v there_o not_o be_v good_a intention_n find_v out_o among_o we_o also_o who_o be_v not_o at_o such_o great_a odds_o and_o acknowledge_v on_o all_o side_n to_o have_v no_o such_o dangerous_a opinion_n among_o we_o i_o speak_v not_o this_o any_o whit_n to_o countenance_v that_o opinion_n of_o the_o arrian_n which_o be_v creep_v into_o the_o church_n again_o but_o leave_v they_o to_o stand_v or_o fall_v to_o their_o own_o master_n and_o

romanist_n yet_o shall_v we_o not_o be_v charitable_a to_o you_o as_o christian_n we_o be_v much_o to_o blame_v but_o see_v how_o you_o mistake_v or_o rather_o indeed_o pervert_v and_o abuse_v this_o our_o charity_n for_o say_v you_o by_o your_o own_o acknowledgement_n there_o may_v be_v salvation_n in_o our_o church_n but_o we_o all_o deny_v there_o can_v be_v salvation_n in_o you_o therefore_o all_o if_o they_o have_v care_n of_o themselves_o will_v have_v recourse_n to_o we_o for_o it_o be_v the_o safe_a way_n to_o be_v a_o member_n of_o that_o church_n where_o both_o side_n yield_v there_o may_v be_v salvation_n then_o in_o that_o where_o on_o side_n deny_v it_o this_o be_v something_o if_o salvation_n or_o damnation_n depend_v upon_o opinion_n but_o i_o suppose_v that_o charitable_a opinion_n of_o we_o in_o hope_v you_o may_v be_v save_v make_v you_o never_o a_o whit_n the_o near_a heaven_n but_o our_o self_n &_o that_o rough_a censure_n of_o you_o in_o set_v we_o all_o out_o for_o damnation_n make_v we_o no_o whit_n the_o near_a hell_n but_o yourselves_o and_o i_o have_v rather_o be_v a_o member_n of_o that_o church_n which_o hold_v there_o may_v be_v salvation_n in_o both_o then_o of_o that_o which_o hold_v there_o can_v be_v salvation_n but_o in_o one_o for_o hold_v with_o the_o first_o i_o be_o safe_a wheresoever_o i_o be_o but_o hold_v with_o the_o latter_a i_o must_v be_v in_o danger_n wheresoever_o i_o be_o i_o say_v wheresoever_o i_o be_o for_o i_o be_o not_o only_a in_o danger_n of_o my_o salvation_n if_o i_o be_v in_o that_o church_n wherein_o i_o think_v there_o be_v no_o salvation_n but_o also_o if_o i_o be_v in_o that_o church_n out_o of_o which_o i_o think_v there_o can_v be_v no_o salvation_n because_o i_o confine_v salvation_n to_o one_o of_o these_o which_o though_o i_o think_v it_o be_v in_o this_o alone_a yet_o it_o may_v be_v in_o the_o other_o alone_o this_o may_v suffice_v to_o satisfy_v that_o great_a argument_n of_o our_o adversary_n wherein_o they_o so_o much_o glory_n and_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o moderate_v their_o severity_n against_o we_o many_o other_o motive_n unto_o charity_n may_v be_v show_v but_o these_o brief_o shall_v suffice_v the_o one_o be_v that_o we_o be_v chrian_n and_o therefore_o brethren_n and_o so_o ought_v to_o love_v as_o brethren_n another_o be_v in_o that_o i_o hope_v our_o intention_n be_v good_a and_o that_o none_o maintain_v a_o false_a opinion_n perverse_o against_o his_o conscience_n now_o let_v i_o say_v unto_o all_o christian_n as_o s._n paul_n do_v to_o the_o corinthian_n 2_o cor._n 6.11_o 12_o 13._o o_o you_o christian_n our_o mouth_n be_v open_a unto_o you_o and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o our_o heart_n be_v enlarge_v not_o only_o to_o the_o roman_a but_o even_o to_o the_o east_n church_n and_o to_o as_o many_o as_o call_v upon_o the_o name_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n you_o be_v not_o straighten_a in_o we_o but_o you_o be_v straighten_a in_o your_o own_o bowel_n now_o for_o a_o recompense_n in_o the_o same_o i_o speak_v unto_o you_o as_o unto_o brethren_n be_v you_o also_o enlarge_v let_v i_o bespeak_v all_o learned_a prelate_n and_o pastor_n on_o all_o side_n as_o s._n austin_n epist_n 147._o do_v proculianus_fw-la a_o bishop_n and_o a_o favourer_n of_o the_o donatist_n i_o pray_v and_o beseech_v thou_o say_v he_o if_o there_o be_v any_o good_a disposition_n in_o thou_o which_o many_o do_v extol_v and_o command_v if_o it_o be_v not_o a_o counterfeit_a courtesy_n by_o reason_n of_o worldly_a honour_n that_o the_o tender_a bowel_n of_o pity_n and_o compassion_n begin_v to_o yearn_v in_o thou_o and_o that_o you_o will_v have_v these_o controversy_n discuss_v between_o we_o at_o the_o length_n not_o by_o wrangle_v and_o rail_v one_o at_o another_o but_o by_o fervent_a prayer_n and_o earnest_a supplication_n unto_o almighty_a god_n and_o by_o compare_v all_o thing_n peaceable_o and_o examine_v they_o in_o the_o spirit_n of_o meekness_n lest_o the_o poor_a ignorant_a people_n which_o now_o yield_v to_o and_o willing_o obey_v our_o jurisdiction_n and_o command_n over_o they_o press_v we_o with_o this_o their_o submission_n and_o dutiful_a obedience_n to_o we_o in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n and_o say_v they_o do_v as_o their_o leader_n direct_v they_o but_o rather_o by_o our_o unfeigned_a love_n and_o charity_n be_v together_o with_o we_o draw_v from_o those_o by-path_n of_o error_n and_o dissension_n they_o shall_v be_v directeed_o into_o the_o right_a way_n of_o truth_n and_o peace_n i_o will_v concude_v all_o with_o this_o prayer_n that_o it_o will_v please_v god_n to_o inspire_v continual_o the_o universal_a church_n with_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n unity_n and_o

although_o we_o can_v at_o the_o first_o attain_v to_o that_o perfection_n to_o be_v of_o one_o mind_n yet_o let_v we_o begin_v to_o be_v charitable_a and_o bear_v with_o one_o another_o for_o who_o
