the_o ungodliness_n of_o man_n be_v more_o convict_v in_o that_o if_o they_o know_v not_o god_n because_o he_o do_v not_o only_o set_v before_o their_o eye_n testimony_n of_o his_o glory_n in_o his_o

because_o he_o be_v burden_v to_o be_v a_o raiser_n of_o tumult_n therefore_o he_o conclude_v that_o he_o be_v false_o and_o unjust_o accuse_v because_o the_o adversary_n have_v never_o prove_v

that_o this_o be_v add_v like_o to_o a_o concession_n because_o the_o enemy_n take_v that_o in_o evil_a part_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v attribute_v to_o judgement_n and_o right_a election_n as_o if_o paul_n have_v say_v that_o that_o form_n of_o religion_n which_o he_o have_v follow_v be_v in_o deed_n call_v heresy_n but_o unworthelie_o but_o see_v that_o name_n be_v not_o infamous_a either_o among_o the_o jew_n or_o gentile_n it_o be_v unlikely_a that_o he_o make_v answer_v before_o a_o profane_a man_n touch_v that_o which_o they_o count_v every_o where_o rather_o a_o commendation_n than_o any_o vice_n when_o christian_n have_v conference_n together_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n command_v that_o heretic_n be_v count_v detectable_a and_o he_o teach_v we_o to_o beware_v of_o heresy_n because_o they_o bring_v upon_o the_o church_n plague_n dissension_n and_o waistnesse_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n not_o to_o be_v suffer_v among_o the_o people_n of_o god_n who_o safety_n

it_o remain_v that_o he_o do_v either_o mean_a that_o he_o be_v a_o pharisee_n or_o that_o he_o call_v the_o jewish_a religion_n or_o the_o profession_n of_o the_o gospel_n without_o infamy_n heresy_n because_o they_o be_v distinguish_v from_o the_o use_n and_o custom_n of_o all_o nation_n see_v he_o do_v before_o confess_v himself_o to_o be_v a_o pharisee_n there_o shall_v no_o inconvenience_n

notwithstanding_o they_o both_o worship_v one_o god_n i_o say_v he_o worship_v the_o same_o god_n according_a to_o the_o manner_n deliver_v by_o my_o ancestor_n which_o they_o themselves_o worship_n and_o even_o as_o they_o worship_v he_o neither_o do_v that_o hinder_a because_o he_o be_v fall_v from_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o law_n and_o be_v content_a with_o the_o spiritual_a worship_n of_o

ridiculous_a who_o feign_v that_o paul_n allow_v all_o manner_n antiquity_n we_o say_v they_o worship_v the_o god_n of_o our_o father_n with_o paul_n as_o the_o custom_n be_v deliver_v to_o we_o from_o hand_n to_o hand_n as_o if_o even_o they_o themselves_o be_v judge_n it_o be_v sufficient_a for_o the_o jew_n or_o turk_n to_o hold_v up_o the_o same_o buckler_n against_o the_o faith_n of_o

which_o may_v have_v be_v common_a to_o all_o the_o superstition_n of_o the_o gentile_n he_o mean_v only_o to_o stop_v the_o mouth_n of_o his_o adversary_n nevertheless_o he_o take_v this_o for_o a_o
