the_o catholic_a scripturist_n or_o the_o plea_n of_o the_o roman_a catholic_n show_v the_o scripture_n to_o hold_v forth_o the_o roman_a faith_n in_o above_o forty_o of_o the_o chief_a controversy_n now_o under_o debate_n now_o i_o beseech_v you_o brother_n mark_v they_o which_o cause_n division_n and_o offence_n contrary_a to_o the_o doctrine_n which_o you_o have_v learn_v and_o avoid_v they_o rom._n 16.17_o by_o i._n m._n print_a in_o gant_n by_o maximilian_n graet_n m.dc.lxii_o the_o preface_n 1._o now_o i_o beseech_v you_o brother_n mark_v those_o which_o cause_n division_n and_o offence_n contrary_a to_o the_o doctrine_n which_o you_o have_v learn_v and_o avoid_v they_o rom._n 16.17_o these_o word_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o of_o truth_n as_o well_o in_o the_o year_n 1517._o as_o at_o this_o present_a year_n have_v any_o good_a christian_a speak_v these_o word_n in_o that_o foresay_a year_n 1517._o all_o who_o have_v hear_v they_o can_v have_v make_v no_o other_o sense_n of_o they_o but_o that_o they_o be_v forewarn_v by_o they_o both_o to_o mark_v and_o to_o avoid_v all_o author_n of_o division_n and_o offence_n contrary_a to_o the_o doctrine_n which_o they_o have_v learn_v yet_o as_o then_o there_o be_v not_o any_o good_a christian_n unless_o you_o will_v account_v they_o for_o such_o who_o you_o yourselves_o acknowledge_v to_o have_v maintain_v gross_a heresy_n who_o do_v not_o believe_v and_o profess_v the_o roman_a faith_n this_o be_v the_o faith_n and_o doctrine_n which_o they_o have_v learn_v wherefore_o when_o in_o that_o year_n luther_n first_o appear_v cause_v division_n and_o offence_n contrary_a to_o the_o doctrine_n which_o they_o have_v learn_v all_o be_v bind_v by_o the_o advice_n of_o the_o apostle_n to_o mark_v and_o avoid_v the_o say_v luther_n and_o all_o his_o adherent_n and_o follower_n 2._o but_o the_o world_n then_o no_o less_o addict_v to_o old_a vice_n then_o to_o new_a doctrine_n do_v shut_v they_o rear_v to_o this_o advice_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o do_v open_v their_o arm_n to_o embrace_v that_o which_o be_v in_o so_o very_a many_o point_n contrary_a to_o the_o doctrine_n which_o they_o have_v learn_v and_o the_o misery_n be_v that_o all_o those_o new_a teacher_n which_o ensue_v in_o whole_a swarm_n though_o they_o all_o teach_v contrary_a to_o what_o they_o have_v learn_v yea_o and_o the_o one_o contrary_a to_o the_o other_o yet_o all_o pretend_a to_o teach_v nothing_o but_o scripture_n right_o understand_v which_o they_o all_o affirm_v not_o to_o have_v be_v right_o understand_v for_o the_o foregoe_v thousand_o year_n in_o such_o point_n as_o than_o they_o begin_v to_o question_v yet_o with_o the_o same_o breath_n they_o say_v that_o in_o all_o those_o several_a point_n in_o which_o they_o contradict_v the_o former_a doctrine_n and_o by_o do_v so_o cause_v so_o great_a division_n and_o offence_n they_o do_v affirm_v only_o that_o to_o which_o they_o be_v enforce_v by_o evident_a manifest_a and_o most_o clear_a text_n of_o scripture_n which_o be_v to_o say_v that_o for_o the_o precedent_n thousand_o year_n no_o body_n have_v right_o understand_v or_o at_o least_o every_o body_n have_v by_o word_n and_o practice_v contradict_v evident_a manifest_a and_o most_o clear_a text_n of_o scripture_n 3._o the_o good_a christian_n of_o those_o age_n and_o we_o who_o adhere_v unto_o they_o be_v in_o the_o quiet_a and_o peaceable_a possession_n of_o what_o we_o have_v learn_v be_v bind_v according_a to_o the_o advice_n of_o the_o apostle_n to_o avoid_v those_o new_a teacher_n and_o it_o be_v sufficient_a for_o we_o to_o show_v they_o teach_v contrary_a to_o what_o we_o have_v learn_v which_o they_o themselves_o confess_v to_o be_v true_a and_o be_v too_o evident_a to_o require_v proof_n but_o because_o we_o stand_v constant_o to_o maintain_v what_o we_o have_v learn_v upon_o this_o ground_n as_o the_o apostle_n do_v bid_v we_o our_o adversary_n desirous_a to_o bring_v we_o from_o believe_v to_o dispute_v will_v be_v still_o importune_o press_v we_o to_o prove_v point_v by_o point_n every_o point_n which_o we_o hold_v by_o evident_a manifest_a and_o most_o clear_a scripture_n we_o well_o understand_v that_o it_o be_v their_o part_n who_o affirm_v all_o former_a age_n for_o some_o thousand_o year_n at_o least_o to_o have_v thus_o gross_o err_v against_o clear_a scripture_n to_o make_v good_a so_o great_a and_o so_o scandalous_a a_o accusation_n by_o produce_v text_n in_o the_o point_n under_o question_n of_o so_o manifest_a undeniable_a evidence_n against_o we_o that_o their_o text_n compare_v to_o we_o allege_v in_o defence_n of_o the_o same_o point_n shall_v make_v the_o truth_n so_o clear_a on_o their_o side_n that_o all_o may_v be_v force_v to_o confess_v they_o have_v reason_n to_o revolt_v as_o they_o do_v from_o all_o their_o ecclesiastical_a and_o civil_a magistrate_n and_o to_o frame_v also_o a_o new_a body_n by_o themselves_o whole_o and_o entire_o both_o in_o doctrine_n and_o discipline_n quite_o different_a yea_o and_o contrary_a to_o all_o congregation_n as_o then_o upon_o the_o face_n of_o the_o earth_n 4._o the_o exorbitancy_n of_o this_o their_o proceed_n will_v be_v unjustifyable_a when_o i_o shall_v here_o produce_v so_o many_o and_o so_o loud-speaking_a text_n for_o above_o forty_o of_o those_o point_n which_o they_o most_o mislike_v in_o our_o religion_n yea_o it_o be_v our_o hold_v those_o point_n for_o which_o they_o say_v they_o be_v enforce_v to_o this_o so_o unfortunate_a a_o division_n but_o how_o weak_o they_o be_v enforce_v upon_o this_o account_n to_o cause_v such_o division_n and_o offence_n will_v easy_o be_v see_v by_o any_o impartial_a eye_n which_o shall_v attentive_o peruse_v on_o the_o one_o side_n all_o the_o text_n which_o i_o shall_v here_o alleadg_n for_o forty_o five_o of_o those_o point_n for_o which_o chief_o they_o have_v cause_v this_o division_n and_o on_o the_o other_o the_o few_o and_o inconsiderable_a and_o a_o thousand-times-answered_n text_n which_o they_o bring_v to_o the_o contrary_n 5._o this_o then_o be_v the_o plea_n of_o we_o roman_a catholic_n that_o we_o ever_o since_o our_o ancestor_n in_o england_n be_v christian_n have_v hold_v the_o doctrine_n which_o we_o have_v learn_v still_o avoid_v those_o who_o teach_v the_o contrary_n for_o that_o we_o have_v do_v this_o in_o no_o few_o than_o fifty_o point_n in_o which_o we_o be_v most_o accuse_v of_o novelty_n have_v be_v demonstrate_v in_o a_o late_a book_n entitle_v england_n old_a religion_n out_o of_o bede_n own_o word_n and_o though_o bede_n have_v not_o be_v as_o he_o be_v the_o most_o grave_a and_o fame_a author_n which_o ever_o england_n have_v but_o have_v be_v only_o a_o lack_n straw_n live_v and_o write_v before_o the_o year_n 731._o that_o be_v above_o 900._o year_n ago_o yet_o to_o see_v in_o his_o word_n then_o write_v those_o fifty_o point_n all_o hold_v and_o all_o practise_v in_o our_o england_n when_o england_n religion_n be_v at_o the_o pure_a can_v but_o abundant_o convince_v that_o we_o roman_a catholik_o do_v they_o hold_v and_o practice_n what_o we_o hold_v and_o practice_v now_o what_o be_v this_o but_o to_o hold_v the_o doctrine_n we_o have_v learn_v avoid_v those_o who_o teach_v the_o contrary_a 6._o yet_o this_o be_v not_o our_o whole_a plea_n for_o we_o know_v it_o will_v be_v object_v that_o what_o we_o then_o learn_v be_v contrary_a to_o scripture_n and_o they_o must_v mean_v clear_a and_o manifest_a scripture_n or_o else_o why_o do_v they_o go_v against_o the_o doctrine_n and_o practice_v which_o they_o find_v agree_v so_o exact_o with_o the_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n of_o old_a england_n as_o be_v unanswerable_o demonstrate_v in_o that_o book_n but_o we_o further_o more_o plead_v that_o in_o those_o very_a point_n in_o which_o contradiction_n yea_o and_o manifest_a contradiction_n to_o scripture_n be_v object_v against_o we_o we_o have_v scripture_n speak_v so_o full_o for_o we_o that_o no_o one_o of_o those_o many_o religion_n now_o tolerate_v in_o england_n can_v with_o any_o colour_n of_o probability_n challenge_v great_a evidence_n of_o scripture_n for_o their_o opposite_a tenet_n than_o we_o here_o produce_v for_o our_o undoubted_o ancient_a doctrine_n and_o therefore_o this_o our_o doctrine_n even_o in_o this_o respect_n aught_o in_o all_o reason_n to_o be_v at_o least_o as_o much_o tolerate_v as_o any_o of_o those_o religion_n late_o spring_v up_o in_o england_n the_o proof_n of_o what_o i_o say_v must_v rely_v upon_o what_o shall_v appear_v to_o be_v make_v good_a by_o i_o in_o each_o point_n of_o those_o forty_o five_o here_o ensue_v 7._o it_o only_o remain_v that_o i_o advertise_v the_o reader_n how_o impossible_a it_o be_v that_o i_o or_o any_o one_o else_o shall_v cite_v all_o text_n just_a in_o those_o very_a word_n in_o
