say_v second_o that_o god_n minister_n bound_v and_o loose_v sin_n by_o preach_v his_o sacred_a word_n of_o which_o kind_n of_o bind_v and_o lose_v christ_n speak_v in_o saint_n matthew_n and_o in_o

word_n i_o say_v three_o that_o our_o people_n confess_v their_o sin_n general_o before_o the_o minister_n &_o in_o the_o face_n of_o the_o whole_a congregation_n according_a to_o the_o holy_a scripture_n 9_o yea_o in_o the_o reform_a church_n abroad_o the_o people_n use_v to_o confess_v to_o the_o minister_n such_o special_a sin_n as_o most_o grieve_v &_o clog_v their_o conscience_n and_o for_o which_o they_o need_v grave_a advice_n and_o godly_a council_n which_o christian_n liberty_n be_v grant_v also_o in_o our_o church_n of_o england_n for_o such_o as_o listen_v may_v confess_v their_o sin_n to_o the_o minister_n private_o and_o have_v both_o his_o godly_a advice_n and_o absolution_n if_o he_o deem_v they_o penitent_a for_o their_o sin_n the_o reply_n your_o confession_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o mere_a mockery_n for_o you_o confess_v yourselves_o general_o to_o be_v sinner_n but_o you_o name_v no_o sin_n at_o all_o again_o as_o in_o germany_n they_o confess_v some_o sin_n so_o do_v they_o leave_v unconfess_v what_o please_v they_o and_o this_o be_v the_o scornful_a liberty_n which_o you_o grant_v to_o your_o church_n of_o england_n the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o we_o confess_v our_o sin_n this_o day_n as_o the_o israelite_n of_o old_a confess_v their_o sin_n 16._o before_o ezra_n and_o the_o levite_n as_o the_o humble_a publican_n confess_v his_o sin_n when_o he_o say_v o_o god_n be_v merciful_a to_o i_o a_o sinner_n as_o the_o prophet_n david_n confess_v his_o sin_n when_o he_o say_v i_o know_v my_o iniquity_n and_o my_o sin_n be_v ever_o before_o i_o against_o thou_o against_o thou_o only_o have_v i_o sin_v and_o do_v evil_a in_o thy_o sight_n that_o thou_o may_v be_v just_a when_o thou_o speak_v 50.3.4_o and_o pure_a when_o thou_o iudge_v as_o the_o prodigal_a son_n confess_v his_o sin_n 15._o when_o he_o say_v father_n i_o have_v sin_v against_o heaven_n &_o before_o thou_o &_o be_o no_o more_o worthy_a to_o be_v call_v thy_o son_n and_o as_o yourselves_o confess_v your_o sin_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o every_o mass_n i_o say_v second_o that_o yourselves_o grant_v that_o venial_n need_v no_o confession_n at_o al._n and_o yet_o as_o i_o have_v already_o prove_v 34._o the_o least_o sin_n of_o all_o deserve_v eternal_a death_n for_o thus_o do_v your_o own_o famous_a canonist_n write_v quibus_fw-la consequens_fw-la

confess_v one_o venial_a sin_n and_o conceal_v another_o maior_n and_o other_o schooledoctor_n be_v of_o the_o same_o opinion_n i_o say_v three_o that_o by_o the_o scripture_n upon_o which_o you_o will_v glad_o ground_v your_o confession_n we_o be_v no_o less_o bind_v to_o confess_v one_o sin_n then_o another_o indifferent_o for_o your_o trivolous_a distinction_n of_o mortal_a and_o venial_a sin_n can_v be_v find_v in_o no_o text_n of_o holy_a scripture_n and_o consequent_o since_o the_o scripture_n itself_o by_o your_o grant_n free_v we_o from_o confess_v venial_n it_o follow_v direct_o that_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o confess_v none_o at_o all_o i_o say_v four_o that_o your_o confession_n be_v ridiculous_a indeed_o as_o which_o urge_v the_o penitent_a to_o confess_v those_o sin_n to_o sinful_a man_n which_o god_n of_o his_o mercy_n have_v forgive_v already_o i_o prove_v it_o because_o your_o best_a approve_a writer_n hold_v that_o contrition_n only_o reconcile_v sinner_n to_o god_n and_o take_v away_o both_o the_o fault_n and_o the_o pain_n but_o after_o that_o we_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n by_o only_a contrition_n and_o have_v both_o our_o sin_n and_o the_o satisfaction_n remit_v i_o ween_v it_o be_v a_o vain_a and_o a_o ridiculous_a thing_n ●_o to_o afflict_v ourselves_o for_o popish_a absolution_n this_o that_o i_o say_v be_v witness_v by_o martinus_n navarrus_n by_o your_o learned_a friar_n joan._n lud._n vivaldus_fw-la and_o diverse_a other_o i_o say_v fift_o that_o your_o confession_n be_v never_o able_a to_o bring_v peace_n to_o any_o trouble_a conscience_n but_o to_o drive_v they_o headlong_o into_o desperation_n for_o first_o none_o live_v be_v able_a to_o make_v a_o true_a confession_n of_o all_o his_o sin_n ult._n which_o thing_n be_v so_o clear_a

6._o s._n john_n the_o baptist_n induce_v the_o people_n to_o the_o confession_n of_o their_o sin_n which_o doubtless_o be_v not_o to_o confess_v themselves_o in_o general_a to_o be_v sinner_n but_o to_o utter_v every_o man_n his_o sin_n so_o be_v it_o say_v in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n that_o many_o of_o they_o which_o believe_v 18._o come_v confess_v and_o declare_v their_o deed_n

first_o that_o s._n john_n the_o baptist_n can_v mean_v of_o your_o sacramental_a confession_n because_o it_o be_v not_o institute_v before_o his_o decollation_n 7.22_o but_o you_o make_v small_a

even_o so_o in_o good_a sooth_n you_o seem_v to_o use_v it_o the_o truth_n be_v this_o s._n john_n exhort_v the_o people_n to_o repentance_n and_o to_o amendment_n of_o their_o former_a life_n evil_a spend_v find_v so_o good_a success_n in_o his_o preach_n that_o jerusalem_n eucherius_n and_o all_o jury_n and_o all_o the_o country_n about_o jordan_n be_v desirous_a to_o be_v baptize_v and_o in_o

reason_n first_o because_o popish_a auricular_a confession_n be_v not_o yet_o invent_v but_o after_o christ_n resurrection_n as_o all_o papist_n grant_v again_o because_o one_o man_n can_v not_o
