this_o short_a confession_n once_o have_v and_o what_o it_o now_o have_v supreme_a authority_n civil_a in_o scotland_n be_v either_o royal_a or_o legal_a for_o although_o the_o public_a law_n be_v

have_v never_o authority_n legal_a for_o it_o be_v never_o ratify_v by_o act_n of_o parliament_n as_o be_v our_o national_n confession_n which_o be_v registrate_v in_o the_o act_n of_o parliament_n but_o all_o the_o civil_a authority_n that_o this_o short_a general_n confession_n have_v at_o any_o time_n be_v only_o royal_a by_o the_o king_n mandate_n whereof_o we_o shall_v speak_v more_o a_o

the_o authority_n synodical_a immediate_a be_v that_o approbation_n where-by_a those_o synod_n declare_v this_o confession_n to_o be_v a_o true_a christian_a faithful_n and_o godly_a confession_n and_o that_o such_o as_o true_o profess_v christ_n and_o his_o true_a religion_n aught_o to_o agree_v thereunto_o this_o approbation_n be_v in_o matter_n of_o faith_n &_o of_o contrary_a error_n which_o in_o religion_n be_v not_o mutable_a by_o any_o humane_a authority_n neither_o depend_v thereon_o &_o the_o agreement_n to_o the_o say_a confession_n be_v declare_v by_o those_o synod_n to_o
