shall_v endeavour_v to_o convince_v the_o understanding_n of_o judicious_a man_n especial_o in_o such_o point_n as_o be_v pretend_v to_o belong_v to_o catholic_a faith_n and_o eternal_a salvation_n for_o neither_o be_v the_o temporal_a and_o spiritual_a power_n among_o christian_n well_o compare_v to_o the_o body_n and_o soul_n of_o man_n either_o in_o union_n or_o in_o subjection_n and_o beside_o although_o it_o be_v in_o all_o thing_n a_o fit_a similitude_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o any_o way_n prove_v that_o which_o card._n bellarmine_n pretend_v to_o prove_v thereby_o but_o it_o do_v clear_o and_o direct_o as_o you_o shall_v see_v convince_v the_o flat_a contrary_n 5_o for_o first_o as_o i_o show_v before_o 3._o before_o cap._n 2._o 3._o out_o of_o card_n bellarmine_n own_o ground_n the_o temporal_a and_o spiritual_a power_n as_o they_o be_v refer_v to_o their_o visible_a head_n here_o on_o earth_n do_v not_o make_v proper_o and_o formal_o one_o total_a body_n or_o commonwealth_n which_o be_v the_o spiritual_a kingdom_n or_o church_n of_o christ_n but_o they_o do_v make_v proper_o and_o formal_o two_o total_a body_n or_o common_a wealth_n to_o wit_n earthly_a kingdom_n or_o a_o temporal_a and_o civil_a body_n whereof_o the_o king_n be_v head_n as_o d._n schulckenius_n express_o affirm_v 339._o affirm_v pag._n 339._o and_o the_o spiritual_a kingdom_n

spiritual_a power_n see_v therefore_o that_o the_o reason_n why_o card._n bellarmine_n affirm_v that_o temporal_a power_n among_o christian_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o spiritual_a be_v for_o that_o they_o do_v make_v one_o total_a body_n or_o commonwealth_n as_o the_o body_n and_o soul_n do_v make_v one_o man_n and_o consequent_o the_o temporal_a power_n must_v be_v subject_a to_o the_o spiritual_a as_o the_o body_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n and_o as_o i_o have_v clear_o prove_v there_o be_v no_o such_o union_n of_o the_o temporal_a and_o spiritual_a power_n to_o make_v one_o total_a body_n consist_v of_o both_o power_n which_o be_v the_o spiritual_a kingdom_n or_o church_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v manifest_a that_o card_n bellarmine_n argument_n draw_v from_o this_o similitude_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n be_v ground_v upon_o this_o union_n of_o the_o temporal_a and_o spiritual_a power_n compound_v one_o total_a body_n have_v no_o sure_a ground_n or_o

among_o christian_n as_o they_o be_v refer_v not_o to_o their_o visible_a head_n here_o on_o earth_n but_o to_o christ_n the_o invisible_a head_n of_o they_o both_o do_v make_v one_o total_a body_n or_o commonwealth_n consist_v actual_o of_o both_o power_n which_o may_v be_v call_v the_o christian_a world_n in_o which_o sense_n the_o christian_a common_a wealth_n be_v usual_o take_v but_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n and_o especial_o the_o spiritual_a kingdom_n of_o christ_n be_v seldom_o take_v in_o that_o sense_n but_o also_o the_o whole_a world_n consist_v of_o christian_n and_o infidel_n may_v in_o that_o manner_n be_v call_v one_o total_a body_n whereof_o christ_n at_o least_o wise_a as_o he_o be_v god_n be_v the_o invisible_a and_o celestial_a head_n nevertheless_o this_o

be_v catholic_a and_o if_o it_o have_v not_o be_v catholic_a the_o church_n define_v it_o to_o be_v catholic_a shall_v have_v err_v therefore_o it_o be_v catholic_a and_o reveal_v by_o god_n before_o

be_v bind_v to_o account_v that_o to_o be_v divine_a scripture_n which_o the_o church_n have_v define_v to_o be_v divine_a and_o although_o she_o do_v certain_o define_v and_o can_v err_v yet_o she_o do_v not_o make_v by_o her_o definition_n that_o scripture_n to_o be_v divine_a for_o therefore_o she_o have_v declare_v it_o to_o be_v divine_a because_o it_o be_v true_o divine_a and_o if_o it_o have_v not_o be_v before_o divine_a scripture_n the_o church_n will_v not_o have_v declare_v it_o to_o be_v divine_a wherefore_o although_o that_o assertion_n which_o be_v condemn_v by_o the_o

a_o certain_a pertinacy_n and_o rebellion_n depart_v from_o the_o definition_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n which_o can_v not_o true_o be_v account_v at_o that_o time_n when_o it_o be_v doubtful_a

that_o the_o church_n have_v power_n to_o declare_v a_o assertion_n to_o be_v catholic_a and_o to_o appertain_v to_o catholic_a faith_n to_o this_o effect_n that_o after_o the_o definition_n of_o
