A19220	The Catholike moderator: or A moderate examination of the doctrine of the Protestants Prouing against the too rigid Catholikes of these times, and against the arguments especially, of that booke called, The answer to the Catholike apologie, that we, who are members of the Catholike, apostolike, & Roman Church, ought not to condeme the Protestants for heretikes, vntill further proofe be made.

can_v not_o be_v save_v without_o the_o eucharist_n which_o opinion_n of_o he_o even_o our_o catholic_n themselves_o do_v condemn_v why_o then_o shall_v the_o huguenot_n be_v heretic_n rather_o for_o

first_o dead_a as_o for_o prayer_n for_o the_o dead_a the_o huguenot_n will_v affirm_v that_o the_o church_n in_o the_o beginning_n celebrate_v only_o a_o commemoration_n of_o the_o dead_a wherein_o

he_o shall_v but_o have_v show_v himself_o to_o be_v of_o a_o quarrelsome_a spirit_n yea_o they_o will_v further_o say_v that_o petty_a abuse_n especial_o such_o as_o bare_a a_o show_n of_o charity_n may_v somewhat_o be_v wink_v at_o as_o prayer_n for_o the_o dead_a have_v which_o custom_n serve_v then_o also_o to_o stir_v up_o in_o the_o pagan_n a_o better_a esteem_n of_o the_o christian_a

nor_o be_v there_o any_o other_o mean_v leave_v we_o to_o reform_v they_o then_o to_o take_v away_o the_o first_o occasion_n whence_o they_o proceed_v though_o in_o themselves_o they_o be_v of_o no_o

faulty_a touch_v set_v fast_v day_n i_o be_o hearty_o sorry_a that_o he_o in_o give_v out_o day_n that_o the_o huguenot_n do_v herein_o imitate_v the_o ancient_a heretic_n give_v they_o advantage_n to_o revenge_v themselves_o upon_o we_o and_o to_o prove_v the_o clean_a contrary_n namely_o that_o it_o be_v we_o that_o follow_v the_o ancient_a heretic_n 16._o for_o eusebius_n say_v that_o it_o be_v montanus_n the_o heretic_n who_o first_o set_v down_o the_o rule_n for_o fast_v see_v that_o before_o that_o these_o set_v fast_v day_n be_v not_o ordain_v with_o any_o intention_n to_o bind_v the_o conscience_n but_o for_o order_n sake_n only_o sure_o then_o he_o be_v not_o in_o the_o right_n whosoever_o find_v fault_n with_o they_o see_v there_o be_v at_o first_o no_o superstition_n in_o they_o but_o since_o that_o say_v the_o huguenot_n the_o superstition_n be_v come_v to_o that_o height_n that_o the_o very_a day_n only_o because_o it_o be_v such_o or_o such_o a_o saint_n eve_n be_v

now_o as_o concern_v the_o difference_n between_o the_o bishop_n and_o the_o ordinary_a priest_n priest_n the_o huguenot_n will_v say_v that_o at_o first_o they_o be_v both_o equal_a but_o that_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

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

between_o they_o in_o this_o point_n wherein_o though_o the_o huguenot_n may_v be_v deceive_v yet_o be_v their_o error_n nothing_o so_o dangerous_a as_o to_o overthrow_v the_o foundation_n of_o

be_v it_o consent_v unto_o as_o well_o by_o the_o catholic_n as_o the_o huguenot_n the_o second_o thing_n which_o i_o observe_v in_o justification_n be_v the_o matter_n that_o be_v to_o say_v
