catholic_n and_o huguenot_n thus_o far_o forth_o agree_v in_o doctrine_n that_o they_o be_v both_o of_o the_o same_o faith_n and_o religion_n it_o be_v most_o clear_a that_o man_n of_o the_o same_o church_n and_o religion_n may_v differ_v nevertheless_o about_o some_o opinion_n in_o divinity_n austen_n accord_v not_o to_o hierome_n nor_o epiphanius_n to_o chrysostome_n nor_o cyprian_a to_o

of_o they_o every_o error_n do_v not_o separate_v a_o man_n from_o the_o church_n nor_o shall_v we_o regard_v so_o much_o the_o number_n as_o the_o quality_n of_o they_o arrius_n accord_v with_o the_o catholic_n in_o all_o point_v but_o one_o insomuch_o as_o the_o change_n of_o a_o word_n yea_o of_o one_o bare_a letter_n will_v have_v compound_v the_o controversy_n 〈◊〉_d and_o yet_o be_v he_o the_o great_a heretic_n that_o ever_o the_o church_n be_v trouble_v with_o origen_n on_o the_o other_o side_n dissent_v in_o infinite_a tenant_n from_o the_o other_o old_a doctor_n and_o be_v yet_o nevertheless_o esteem_v a_o member_n of_o the_o church_n to_o see_v then_o whether_o the_o huguenot_n be_v of_o another_o religion_n than_o we_o neither_o their_o error_n nor_o their_o number_n be_v the_o thing_n which_o be_v so_o much_o to_o be_v regard_v but_o the_o nature_n of_o they_o only_o be_v it_o that_o be_v to_o say_v what_o error_n be_v to_o be_v repute_v for_o heresy_n and_o whether_o they_o be_v of_o that_o nature_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n which_o according_a to_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o catholic_n make_v error_n to_o prove_v heresy_n the_o one_o when_o the_o error_n be_v of_o itself_o so_o enormous_a that_o he_o be_v at_o all_o time_n a_o heretic_n that_o hold_v it_o so_o that_o even_o before_o the_o nicene_n council_n have_v decide_v it_o ebion_n paulus_n samosetanus_n and_o arrius_n stand_v then_o as_o heretic_n for_o that_o they_o deny_v the_o eternal_a divinity_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n the_o second_o thing_n which_o according_a to_o our_o opinion_n make_v a_o error_n to_o become_v a_o heresy_n be_v when_o any_o man_n maintain_v a_o opinion_n in_o point_n of_o doctrine_n contrary_a to_o the_o decree_n of_o a_o general_n council_n so_o then_o the_o heresy_n lie_v not_o so_o much_o in_o the_o mischievousnesse_n of_o the_o opinion_n as_o in_o the_o resistance_n make_v against_o the_o ordinance_n of_o the_o church_n for_o example_n the_o opinion_n of_o s._n cyprian_a touch_v rebaptization_n be_v not_o heresy_n in_o he_o because_o there_o be_v not_o as_o then_o any_o decree_n of_o council_n make_v against_o it_o but_o since_o that_o say_v we_o this_o opinion_n be_v condemn_v legal_o it_o be_v flat_a heresy_n in_o any_o other_o that_o shall_v hold_v it_o of_o this_o second_o species_n of_o heresy_n i_o will_v entreat_v in_o my_o three_o chapter_n in_o this_o only_o of_o the_o former_a which_o be_v whether_o the_o error_n of_o the_o huguenot_n be_v in_o themselves_o so_o enormous_a that_o they_o destroy_v the_o very_a foundation_n of_o faith_n and_o by_o consequence_n keep_v they_o off_o from_o be_v of_o the_o same_o religion_n with_o us._n let_v we_o see_v then_o 20._o how_o our_o antagonist_n take_v upon_o he_o to_o prove_v the_o contrary_n in_o the_o first_o place_n say_v he_o both_o party_n as_o well_o the_o catholic_n as_o their_o adversary_n repute_v one_o another_o for_o heretic_n i_o answer_v that_o i_o find_v no_o impossibility_n why_o they_o may_v not_o be_v both_o deceive_v for_o two_o brother_n be_v in_o choler_n may_v well_o renounce_v one_o another_o and_o yet_o they_o leave_v not_o for_o all_o that_o to_o continue_v true_a brother_n always_o cyrill_n and_o theodoret_n accuse_v one_o another_o for_o heretic_n and_o yet_o neither_o of_o they_o be_v so_o so_o that_o this_o reason_n be_v only_o draw_v from_o the_o passion_n of_o man_n when_o reason_n have_v abandon_v they_o but_o how_o do_v he_o prove_v 21._o that_o the_o catholic_n repute_v the_o huguenot_n for_o heretic_n the_o catholic_a church_n say_v he_o have_v by_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n condemn_v diverse_a of_o the_o lutheran_n opinion_n i_o answer_v according_a to_o my_o first_o distinction_n that_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o return_v a_o opinion_n for_o a_o heresy_n by_o condemnation_n and_o another_o thing_n to_o repute_v it_o so_o of_o its_o own_o nature_n now_o whither_o or_o no_o the_o huguenot_n be_v heretic_n by_o condemnation_n we_o will_v argue_v it_o hereafter_o in_o our_o three_o four_o and_o five_o chapter_n but_o here_o we_o dispute_v only_o of_o the_o nature_n of_o their_o error_n wherein_o his_o proof_n be_v nothing_o to_o his_o purpose_n but_o say_v he_o at_o rome_n every_o holy_a thursday_n the_o pope_n pronounce_v they_o excommunicate_a 21._o and_o prohibit_v all_o chatholikes_n to_o read_v their_o book_n in_o like_a manner_n the_o same_o day_n also_o he_o excommunicat_o all_o sinner_n of_o who_o he_o dare_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o many_o be_v of_o the_o church_n else_o shall_v he_o himself_o be_v condemn_v for_o a_o heretic_n by_o the_o council_n of_o constance_n which_o give_v sentence_n against_o john_n huz_n that_o the_o church_n consist_v as_o well_o of_o the_o bad_a as_o of_o the_o good_a and_o whereas_o the_o huguenot_n book_n be_v prohibit_v so_o be_v also_o the_o book_n of_o machiavelli_n aretine_n and_o diverse_a other_o catholic_n let_v we_o next_o see_v the_o opinion_n which_o the_o huguenot_n have_v of_o the_o catholic_a doctrine_n 21._o caluine_v say_v he_o write_v that_o the_o principal_a point_n of_o doctrine_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v almost_o utter_o abolish_v and_o the_o right_a use_n of_o the_o sacrament_n in_o many_o fashion_n corrupt_v he_o need_v but_o little_a explication_n the_o word_n themselves_o answer_v he_o calvin_n say_v not_o that_o the_o sacrament_n be_v utter_o take_v away_o but_o the_o right_a use_n of_o they_o many_o way_n corrupt_v nor_o that_o the_o principal_a point_n of_o religion_n be_v utter_o destroy_v but_o almost_o abolish_v a_o man_n may_v be_v almost_o kill_v and_o yet_o live_v second_o to_o prove_v how_o their_o religion_n differ_v from_o we_o reason_n he_o produce_v the_o controversy_n of_o original_a sin_n freewill_n justification_n merit_n and_o diverse_a other_o which_o he_o judge_n of_o most_o consequence_n it_o be_v the_o great_a pity_n in_o the_o world_n to_o hear_v how_o the_o most_o of_o the_o preacher_n in_o both_o religion_n common_o fight_v with_o their_o own_o shadow_n not_o understand_v what_o it_o be_v that_o their_o adversary_n hold_v which_o come_v only_o of_o the_o subtlety_n of_o word_n invent_v by_o the_o devil_n to_o disturb_v the_o peace_n of_o the_o church_n one_o party_n understand_v the_o word_n justification_n in_o one_o sense_n and_o another_o in_o another_o one_o faith_n one_o way_n and_o another_o in_o another_o one_o grace_n in_o one_o fashion_n another_o after_o another_o and_o so_o of_o the_o rest_n that_o which_o we_o say_v be_v true_a in_o our_o acception_n of_o the_o word_n and_o that_o which_o they_o say_v be_v likewise_o true_a as_o they_o take_v it_o so_o that_o if_o the_o desire_n of_o contention_n be_v once_o take_v away_o we_o shall_v soon_o find_v that_o the_o most_o of_o these_o dispute_n wherewith_o people_n ear_n be_v fill_v be_v only_o the_o subtlety_n of_o the_o school_n upon_o the_o etimology_n and_o definition_n of_o word_n only_o whence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o in_o the_o conference_n at_o regenspurg_n the_o catholic_n and_o the_o protestant_n fall_v to_o some_o agreement_n in_o the_o question_n of_o original_a sin_n of_o predestination_n freewill_n and_o diverse_a other_o point_n pacis_fw-la which_o be_v also_o confess_v by_o bishop_n lindanus_n one_o of_o the_o tarte_v enemy_n that_o the_o huguenot_n ever_o have_v nevertheless_o the_o author_n of_o this_o answer_n be_v so_o ill_o advise_v as_o to_o choose_v out_o these_o question_n principal_o to_o show_v the_o difference_n between_o they_o and_o us._n for_o i_o own_o part_n i_o will_v not_o take_v upon_o i_o to_o reconcile_v the_o say_a question_n neither_o know_v i_o well_o to_o confess_v my_o own_o ignorance_n free_o whether_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o be_v do_v or_o no_o only_o thus_o much_o i_o assure_v myself_o that_o the_o difference_n be_v not_o so_o great_a as_o it_o be_v judge_v to_o be_v nor_o will_v i_o too_o exact_o search_v out_o the_o point_n in_o controversy_n because_o i_o well_o hope_v some_o other_o man_n may_v more_o happy_o perform_v it_o hereafter_o only_o i_o will_v discourse_v upon_o the_o say_a question_n as_o they_o be_v common_o understand_v by_o the_o best_a doctor_n in_o each_o religion_n in_o which_o sense_n i_o
affirm_v for_o aught_o that_o i_o have_v yet_o see_v that_o the_o error_n of_o the_o huguenot_n be_v not_o so_o gross_a as_o that_o they_o impeach_v their_o be_v member_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n to_o clear_v which_o point_n i_o will_v reduce_v these_o question_n to_o these_o four_o head_n 1._o the_o scripture_n 2._o justification_n 3._o prayer_n 4._o the_o sacrament_n concern_v the_o scripture_n 23._o he_o charge_v the_o huguenot_n only_o with_o one_o error_n which_o be_v that_o they_o reject_v the_o book_n of_o tebit_fw-la judith_n the_o maccabee_n and_o the_o rest_n which_o they_o call_v apocryphal_a notwithstanding_o that_o they_o be_v approve_v for_o canonical_a by_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o huguenot_n do_v not_o altogether_o reject_v they_o but_o esteem_v of_o they_o as_o of_o holy_a write_n and_o full_a of_o piety_n of_o great_a authority_n than_o any_o other_o book_n only_o they_o do_v not_o state_n they_o in_o the_o same_o rank_n with_o the_o other_o book_n which_o be_v find_v write_v in_o the_o holy_a tongue_n and_o this_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o 4._o that_o bellarmine_n after_o a_o sort_n accord_v unto_o for_o that_o in_o his_o division_n of_o the_o book_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n he_o make_v two_o class_n in_o the_o first_o he_o rank_n the_o book_n receive_v by_o the_o huguenot_n and_o those_o which_o be_v call_v apocryphal_a in_o the_o second_o but_o what_o though_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o huguenot_n be_v in_o this_o point_n condemn_v by_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n yet_o be_v the_o council_n of_o laodicea_n clear_a on_o their_o side_n and_o so_o be_v also_o hierome_n origen_n &_o nicholaus_fw-la lyra_n himself_o cardinal_n cajetan_v and_o many_o other_o pillar_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n so_o that_o i_o will_v fain_o know_v if_o that_o this_o error_n of_o the_o huguenot_n be_v so_o enormous_a as_o that_o for_o this_o cause_n they_o must_v necessary_o be_v heretic_n wherefore_o then_o do_v it_o not_o as_o well_o hinder_v hierome_n from_o be_v a_o saint_n and_o cardinal_n cajetan_v from_o be_v a_o catholic_a now_o under_o the_o title_n of_o justification_n justification_n i_o comprehend_v all_o the_o difference_n mention_v in_o the_o answer_n which_o be_v determine_v in_o the_o six_o session_n of_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n touch_v 1._o the_o cause_n 2._o the_o matter_n 3._o the_o instrument_n 4._o and_o the_o effect_n of_o our_o justification_n by_o the_o source_n or_o principal_a cause_n i_o mean_v that_o disposition_n by_o which_o our_o
