the_o answer_n confession_n or_o the_o number_n of_o our_o ▪_o sin_n which_o must_v be_v do_v before_o the_o priest_n with_o all_o the_o circumstance_n thereof_o as_o how_o when_o who_z with_o who_o

demand_v of_o our_o adversary_n whether_o this_o be_v true_a or_o no_o if_o they_o deny_v it_o then_o do_v we_o object_n against_o they_o the_o lord_n prayer_n in_o the_o which_o we_o confess_v and_o

receive_v it_o again_o we_o object_n against_o they_o the_o article_n of_o our_o faith_n wherein_o we_o confess_v we_o believe_v the_o remission_n of_o sin_n yea_o &_o we_o do_v certain_o know_v that_o if_o we_o believe_v according_a to_o god_n word_n we_o do_v also_o obtain_v the_o same_o that_o we_o believe_v but_o we_o believe_v the_o remission_n of_o sin_n therefore_o we_o obtain_v the_o same_o to_o conclude_v we_o object_n the_o evident_a promise_n contain_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o chief_o that_o say_n of_o saint_n john._n 1._o epistle_n 1._o if_o we_o confess_v our_o sin_n he_o be_v merciful_a to_o forgive_v we_o our_o sin_n wherefore_o sith_o it_o be_v thus_o as_o by_o the_o truth_n it_o be_v confirm_v than_o they_o which_o confess_v their_o sin_n to_o god_n and_o to_o his_o son_n our_o lord_n have_v obtain_v full_a remission_n of_o the_o same_o and_o so_o be_v there_o no_o need_n to_o use_v the_o auricular_a confession_n of_o the_o romish_a church_n furthermore_o there_o neighbour_n be_v a_o other_o kind_n of_o confession_n command_v by_o our_o lord_n to_o all_o the_o faithful_a to_o wit_n that_o every_o man_n shall_v confess_v each_o one_o to_o other_o his_o fault_n and_o offence_n wherein_o he_o have_v offend_v &_o injure_v his_o neighbour_n and_o that_o each_o man_n do_v hearty_o forgive_v every_o offence_n &_o injury_n which_o he_o have_v suffer_v and_o forgive_v he_o also_o which_o have_v do_v the_o same_o and_o pray_v for_o he_o and_o the_o lord_n prayer_n do_v prescribe_v unto_o we_o this_o kind_n of_o confession_n for_o we_o say_v as_o we_o forgive_v they_o that_o trespass_n against_o us._n and_o of_o this_o confession_n be_v it_o that_o saint_n james_n speak_v in_o his_o fifthe_o chapter_n and_o not_o of_o that_o which_o be_v do_v unto_o the_o priest_n priest_n furthermore_o there_o be_v not_o one_o word_n in_o the_o whole_a scripture_n of_o god_n speak_v of_o any_o other_o confession_n than_o this_o and_o therefore_o their_o auricular_a confession_n unto_o the_o priest_n be_v without_o all_o authority_n of_o scripture_n furthermore_o the_o bless_a apostle_n do_v never_o give_v themselves_o to_o the_o hear_n of_o confession_n neither_o give_v they_o absolution_n whisper_v in_o the_o ear_n of_o they_o that_o be_v confess_v for_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v that_o joyful_a tiding_n wherein_o the_o captive_n and_o such_o as_o be_v adjudge_v to_o death_n be_v declare_v to_o be_v make_v free_a and_o deliver_v from_o the_o salt_n &_o the_o punishment_n due_a for_o the_o same_o and_o be_v receive_v into_o favour_n and_o into_o the_o number_n of_o god_n child_n and_o that_o by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n jesus_n as_o christ_n himself_o teach_v out_o of_o esai_n the_o prophet_n ca._n 61_o at_o nazareth_n as_o appear_v in_o luke_n 4._o and_o paul_n confirm_v the_o same_o 2._o cor._n 5._o wherefore_o that_o which_o the_o adversary_n object_n say_v that_o the_o priest_n know_v not_o the_o state_n or_o condition_n of_o the_o sin_n except_o the_o same_o be_v open_v to_o he_o and_o therefore_o know_v not_o what_o to_o forgive_v or_o what_o to_o leave_v unforgve_v have_v no_o manner_n of_o ground_n of_o truth_n wherefore_o if_o the_o priest_n do_v remit_v or_o retain_v any_o sin_n it_o behove_v that_o those_o be_v disclose_v and_o open_v to_o he_o but_o the_o word_n of_o chryst_n touch_v the_o remit_v or_o retain_v of_o sin_n appertain_v to_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o to_o excommunication_n &_o not_o to_o the_o private_a power_n of_o the_o priest_n whereof_o i_o will_v speak_v hereafter_o likewise_o when_o chryst_n bid_v the_o leper_n show_v himself_o to_o the_o priest_n he_o command_v he_o not_o to_o confess_v himself_o unto_o he_o but_o that_o he_o shall_v offer_v himself_o to_o be_v try_v by_o the_o priest_n and_o so_o offer_v his_o sacrifice_n for_o the_o judge_a or_o try_v of_o leprosy_n appertain_v to_o the_o priest_n leuit._n 13._o and._n 14._o but_o in_o that_o they_o say_v leprosy_n do_v signify_v sin_n we_o answer_v that_o touch_v spiritual_a thing_n and_o sin_n the_o priest_n and_o sacrifice_n be_v figure_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o be_v they_o to_o be_v send_v unto_o christ_n to_o who_o also_o that_o samari●ane_n come_v when_o he_o be_v heal_v and_o not_o to_o any_o priest_n so_o also_o we_o trust_v that_o chryst_n will_v deliver_v and_o save_v we_o if_o we_o believe_v in_o he_o and_o to_o he_o we_o confess_v ourselves_o although_o we_o come_v not_o to_o the_o priest_n the_o ancient_a church_n before_o the_o
