A57693 Catholick charitie complaining and maintaining, that Rome is uncharitable to sundry eminent parts of the Catholick Church, and especially to Protestants, and is therefore Uncatholick : and so, a Romish book, called Charitie mistaken, though undertaken by a second, is it selfe a mistaking / by F. Rous. Rous, Francis, 1579-1659. 1641 (1641) Wing R2017; ESTC R14076 205,332 412

next_o place_n it_o will_v only_o remain_v to_o be_v consider_v and_o resolve_v whether_o or_o no_o both_o the_o catholic_n and_o the_o protestant_n can_v be_v true_o say_v to_o be_v part_n and_o

of_o clear_n rome_n from_o this_o charge_n of_o uncharitableness_n have_v be_v hitherto_o by_o prove_v it_o a_o untruth_n and_o his_o way_n of_o prove_v it_o a_o untruth_n by_o prove_v that_o

have_v save_v his_o mother_n rome_n from_o s._n johns_n true_o mortal_a uncharitableness_n but_o it_o seem_v we_o be_v clear_a in_o these_o point_n and_o therefore_o the_o author_n will_v not_o go_v against_o his_o conscience_n in_o a_o false_a accusation_n wherefore_o let_v his_o silence_n be_v take_v for_o a_o consent_n and_o confession_n but_o than_o it_o seem_v the_o question_n be_v at_o a_o

save_v herself_o from_o uncharitableness_n in_o damn_v we_o sure_o this_o be_v so_o far_o from_o prove_v protestant_n to_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o damnation_n that_o it_o be_v more_o likely_a to_o prove_v they_o to_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o salvation_n and_o romist_n in_o damnation_n for_o protestant_n be_v part_n of_o the_o true_a church_n by_o true_a faith_n and_o love_n be_v sure_a to_o be_v save_v and_o romist_n not_o be_v of_o this_o church_n wherein_o protestant_n be_v save_v be_v by_o his_o own_o allegation_n in_o danger_n to_o be_v damn_v so_o romist_n be_v both_o bring_v into_o the_o danger_n of_o damnation_n and_o the_o charge_n of_o uncharitableness_n lay_v on_o the_o romist_n may_v still_o stand_v true_a because_o they_o false_o damn_v protestant_n for_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o salvation_n a_o second_o strange_a position_n be_v this_o that_o if_o the_o protestant_n and_o romist_n be_v not_o of_o one_o church_n than_o there_o will_v be_v no_o colour_n of_o

withal_o i_o must_v say_v that_o long_o before_o i_o know_v this_o opinion_n of_o perron_n i_o believe_v this_o truth_n and_o i_o also_o believe_v that_o it_o do_v make_v mighty_o for_o we_o and_o

but_o to_o witness_v and_o condemn_v the_o contumacy_n of_o the_o party_n in_o deny_v satisfaction_n and_o reconciliation_n after_o a_o evident_a fault_n and_o when_o the_o offend_a brother_n will_v

the_o judge_n of_o controversy_n this_o also_o may_v be_v true_a in_o russian_a aethiopian_a and_o protestant_a church_n and_o so_o the_o church_n may_v judge_v controversy_n though_o there_o be_v

by_o who_o they_o be_v embrace_v and_o yet_o they_o be_v not_o at_o all_o against_o any_o express_a doctrine_n of_o the_o creed_n as_o namely_o where_o saint_n paul_n call_v it_o a_o doctrine_n of_o

damnable_a to_o such_o as_o hold_v not_o the_o true_a foundation_n christ_n jesus_n by_o believe_a fundamental_o and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v that_o such_o be_v many_o of_o those_o true_a papist_n who_o foundation_n be_v the_o pope_n but_o otherwise_o they_o may_v be_v rather_o personam_fw-la damnable_a in_o themselves_o then_o actual_o damn_v to_o those_o who_o by_o 33._o infirmity_n hold_v

themselves_o do_v not_o place_v the_o lawfulness_n of_o meat_n and_o marriage_n among_o their_o chief_a head_n of_o christianity_n or_o explicite_v and_o fundamental_o and_o therefore_o this_o

of_o a_o apology_n to_o put_v off_o this_o kindred_n and_o acquaintance_n which_o by_o the_o way_n be_v not_o to_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o chastity_n and_o fast_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n as_o protestant_n do_v most_o perverse_o affirm_v which_o know_v that_o those_o thing_n be_v lawful_a but_o that_o yet_o it_o be_v most_o grateful_a to_o god_n when_o his_o servant_n for_o his_o

this_o nor_o all_o the_o water_n in_o the_o sea_n will_v wash_v away_o all_o the_o kindred_n between_o romist_n and_o these_o error_n for_o though_o saint_n augustine_n may_v apply_v this_o prophecy_n
