and_o signification_n of_o word_n 2._o another_o grand_a fault_n our_o roman_a adversary_n be_v guilty_a of_o be_v that_o their_o scripture-proof_n be_v always_o very_o lame_a and_o imperfect_a that_o be_v that_o they_o never_o prove_v their_o whole_a doctrine_n from_o scripture_n but_o only_o some_o little_a part_n of_o it_o they_o draw_v very_o fine_a and_o artificial_a scheme_n and_o if_o they_o can_v find_v some_o little_a appearance_n in_o scripture_n to_o countenance_v any_o one_o part_n of_o it_o they_o take_v that_o for_o a_o proof_n of_o the_o whole_a as_o for_o instance_n thus_o they_o tell_v we_o that_o christ_n make_v peter_n the_o prince_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o the_o head_n of_o the_o universal_a church_n his_o own_o vicar_n upon_o earth_n and_o that_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n who_o be_v st._n peter_n successor_n succeed_v not_o only_o to_o his_o chair_n but_o to_o all_o the_o right_n and_o prerogative_n of_o st._n peter_n and_o therefore_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n also_o be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o church_n the_o ecumenical_a pastor_n who_o neither_o want_v st._n peter_n key_n nor_o sword._n this_o be_v a_o very_a notable_a point_n if_o it_o be_v well_o prove_v but_o as_o i_o observe_v before_o this_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o pure_a institution_n which_o depend_v whole_o upon_o the_o will_n of_o god_n it_o can_v be_v prove_v only_o by_o scripture_n how_o much_o then_o of_o this_o do_v they_o pretend_v to_o prove_v from_o scripture_n why_o they_o will_v prove_v by_o scripture_n that_o st._n peter_n be_v the_o prince_n of_o the_o apostle_n because_o christ_n say_v unto_o he_o thou_o be_v peter_n and_o on_o this_o rock_n will_v i_o build_v my_o church_n and_o i_o will_v give_v unto_o thou_o the_o key_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n and_o seed_n my_o sheep_n which_o indeed_o be_v lamentable_a proof_n for_o the_o same_o power_n be_v give_v to_o all_o the_o apostle_n 20_o john_n 21_o 22_o 23._o then_o say_v jesus_n unto_o they_o peace_n be_v unto_o you_o as_o my_o father_n send_v i_o even_o so_o send_v i_o you_o all_o of_o you_o and_o therefore_o not_o one_o in_o subjection_n to_o another_o but_o all_o with_o equal_a power_n and_o when_o he_o have_v say_v this_o he_o breathe_v on_o they_o and_o say_v unto_o they_o receive_v you_o the_o holy_a ghost_n whosoever_o sin_n you_o remit_v they_o be_v remit_v unto_o they_o and_o whosoever_o sin_n you_o retain_v they_o be_v retain_v according_o on_o the_o day_n of_o pentecost_n the_o holy_a ghost_n fall_v on_o they_o all_o they_o be_v all_o endow_v with_o the_o gift_n of_o tongue_n and_o miracle_n and_o prophesy_v they_o all_o have_v the_o same_o infallible_a spirit_n and_o therefore_o need_v no_o superior_a head_n over_o they_o they_o be_v to_o be_v separate_v into_o all_o part_n of_o the_o world_n where_o they_o can_v have_v no_o communication_n with_o each_o other_o and_o therefore_o can_v have_v no_o universal_a head._n the_o history_n of_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n give_v not_o the_o least_o intimation_n of_o any_o such_o superiority_n which_o either_o st._n peter_n challenge_v or_o the_o other_o apostle_n pay_v he_o which_o be_v strong_a presumption_n against_o such_o a_o supremacy_n of_o st._n peter_n and_o i_o suppose_v they_o themselves_o will_v grant_v that_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v as_o infallible_a as_o he_o but_o suppose_v we_o shall_v grant_v they_o that_o st._n peter_n be_v the_o chief_a of_o the_o apostle_n and_o have_v a_o kind_n of_o primacy_n not_o of_o government_n but_o order_n how_o do_v they_o prove_v from_o scripture_n that_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n succeed_v in_o all_o the_o right_n and_o prerogative_n of_o st._n peter_n for_o unless_o this_o be_v prove_v whatever_o prerogative_n st._n peter_n have_v it_o signify_v nothing_o to_o they_o and_o yet_o this_o can_v be_v prove_v but_o by_o institution_n for_o though_o christ_n have_v bestow_v a_o primacy_n on_o s._n peter_n yet_o unless_o he_o express_o grant_v it_o to_o his_o successor_n too_o nay_o to_o his_o successor_n in_o the_o see_v of_o rome_n his_o pramacy_n as_o be_v a_o personal_a prerogative_n must_v die_v with_o his_o person_n as_o a_o prince_n may_v grant_v a_o priority_n to_o person_n in_o the_o same_o office_n and_o power_n may_v make_v a_o first_o colonel_n or_o a_o first_o captain_n but_o if_o these_o man_n to_o who_o the_o precedency_n be_v give_v die_v or_o be_v remove_v those_o who_o succeed_v in_o their_o office_n and_o power_n to_o the_o same_o regiment_n or_o company_n do_v not_o therefore_o succeed_v to_o their_o priority_n too_o for_o this_o do_v not_o belong_v to_o their_o office_n but_o to_o their_o person_n and_o the_o king_n may_v give_v the_o priority_n again_o to_o who_o he_o please_v or_o appoint_v they_o to_o succeed_v in_o course_n according_a to_o their_o admission_n into_o such_o office_n and_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n the_o primacy_n of_o the_o roman_a bishop_n who_o be_v st._n peter_n successor_n do_v not_o follow_v from_o the_o primacy_n of_o st._n peter_n unless_o they_o can_v show_v that_o christ_n have_v give_v they_o the_o primacy_n also_o as_o well_o as_o st._n peter_n and_o this_o must_v be_v prove_v from_o scripture_n because_o it_o be_v matter_n of_o institution_n and_o no_o argument_n in_o the_o world_n can_v prove_v any_o thing_n which_o depend_v sole_o upon_o a_o institution_n without_o prove_v the_o institution_n but_o this_o the_o roman_a doctor_n never_o pretend_v to_o for_o they_o know_v that_o there_o be_v not_o one_o word_n in_o scripture_n about_o it_o and_o nothing_o but_o the_o authority_n of_o scripture_n can_v prove_v a_o divine_a institution_n so_o that_o can_v they_o prove_v the_o primacy_n of_o st._n peter_n from_o scripture_n they_o prove_v but_o half_o their_o point_n and_o that_o the_o most_o inconsiderable_a half_n too_o for_o it_o do_v they_o no_o good_a and_o therefore_o when_o they_o make_v a_o great_a noise_n about_o st._n peter_n primacy_n and_o prerogative_n never_o trouble_v yourselves_o to_o dispute_v that_o point_n with_o they_o which_o be_v nothing_o to_o the_o purpose_n but_o require_v they_o to_o prove_v from_o scripture_n that_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n as_o st._n peter_n successor_n be_v appoint_v by_o christ_n to_o be_v the_o supreme_a ecumenical_a bishop_n and_o the_o prince_n of_o all_o bishop_n and_o if_o you_o stick_v here_o as_o in_o reason_n you_o ought_v there_o be_v a_o end_n of_o that_o controversy_n thus_o there_o be_v nothing_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n make_v a_o great_a noise_n about_o than_o infallibility_n though_o they_o be_v not_o agree_v where_o to_o place_v this_o infallibility_n whether_o in_o the_o pope_n or_o a_o general_n council_n but_o let_v it_o be_v where_o it_o will_v this_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o institution_n must_v be_v prove_v by_o scripture_n how_o then_o in_o the_o first_o place_n do_v they_o prove_v the_o pope_n to_o be_v infallible_a that_o they_o think_v be_v very_o plain_a because_o christ_n say_v thou_o be_v peter_n and_o upon_o this_o rock_n will_v i_o build_v my_o church_n and_o the_o gate_n of_o hell_n shall_v not_o prevail_v against_o it_o but_o how_o do_v this_o prove_v that_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n be_v infallible_a for_o here_o be_v not_o one_o word_n of_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n yes_o this_o prove_v st._n peter_n to_o be_v infallible_a who_o be_v afterward_o bishop_n of_o rome_n and_o therefore_o all_o his_o successor_n be_v infallible_a too_o now_o that_o st._n peter_n be_v infallible_a as_o all_o the_o other_o apostle_n be_v we_o ready_o grant_v though_o i_o think_v this_o text_n do_v not_o prove_v it_o but_o

do_v this_o prove_v the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n infallibility_n just_o as_o st._n peter_n primacy_n prove_v the_o pope_n to_o be_v the_o ecumenical_a primate_n they_o themselves_o must_v grant_v that_o a_o infallible_a apostle_n may_v have_v a_o fallible_a bishop_n for_o his_o successor_n or_o else_o they_o must_v either_o deny_v that_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n as_o well_o as_o st._n peter_n be_v infallible_a or_o they_o must_v grant_v that_o all_o the_o apostle_n successor_n that_o be_v all_o the_o bishop_n who_o succeed_v any_o of_o the_o apostle_n in_o their_o see_v must_v be_v as_o infallible_a as_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n who_o succeed_v st._n peter_n and_o then_o there_o will_v be_v so_o much_o infallibility_n that_o it_o will_v be_v worth_a nothing_o if_o then_o there_o be_v not_o a_o natural_a and_o necessary_a entail_n of_o infallibility_n upon_o the_o successor_n of_o infallible_a apostle_n they_o must_v show_v we_o a_o express_a institution_n which_o make_v the_o successor_n of_o peter_n at_o rome_n infallible_a and_o let_v our_o protestant_a demand_n this_o before_o he_o own_v the_o infallibility_n of_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n and_o then_o i_o believe_v they_o will_v not_o think_v he_o worth_n convert_v thus_o as_o for_o those_o who_o place_n infallibility_n in_o a_o general_n council_n demand_v a_o scripture-proof_n of_o it_o that_o they_o will_v produce_v the_o general_n council_n charter_n for_o infallibility_n this_o they_o can_v do_v but_o they_o say_v the_o church_n be_v infallible_a and_o the_o general_n council_n be_v the_o church_n representative_a and_o therefore_o a_o general_n council_n must_v be_v infallible_a too_o so_o that_o here_o be_v several_a thing_n for_o they_o to_o prove_v and_o to_o prove_v by_o scripture_n too_o for_o there_o be_v no_o other_o way_n of_o prove_v they_o before_o they_o can_v prove_v the_o infallibility_n of_o general_n council_n as_o 1._o that_o the_o church_n be_v infallible_a 2._o that_o a_o general_n council_n be_v the_o church_n representative_a 3._o that_o the_o church_n representative_a be_v that_o church_n to_o which_o the_o promise_n of_o infallibility_n be_v make_v and_o then_o they_o may_v conclude_v that_o a_o general_n council_n as_o be_v the_o church_n representative_a be_v infallible_a now_o instead_o of_o prove_v every_o particular_a of_o this_o by_o scripture_n as_o they_o must_v do_v if_o they_o will_v prove_v by_o scripture_n that_o general_a council_n be_v infallible_a they_o pretend_v to_o prove_v no_o more_o than_o the_o first_o of_o the_o three_o that_o the_o church_n be_v infallible_a and_o that_o very_o lame_o too_o as_o may_v appear_v more_o hereafter_o and_o then_o they_o take_v all_o the_o rest_n for_o grant_v without_o any_o proof_n which_o be_v just_a as_o if_o a_o man_n who_o in_o order_n to_o prove_v his_o title_n to_o a_o estate_n be_v require_v to_o prove_v that_o this_o estate_n do_v ancient_o belong_v to_o his_o family_n that_o it_o be_v entail_v upon_o the_o heir_n male_a that_o this_o entail_n be_v never_o cut_v off_o nor_o the_o estate_n legal_o alienate_v and_o that_o he_o alone_o be_v the_o true_a survive_a heir_n shall_v think_v it_o enough_o to_o prove_v only_o the_o first_o of_o these_o that_o the_o estate_n do_v ancient_o belong_v to_o his_o family_n which_o it_o may_v have_v do_v and_o yet_o not_o belong_v to_o it_o now_o or_o if_o it_o do_v still_o belong_v to_o it_o he_o may_v not_o be_v the_o true_a heir_n thus_o if_o we_o consider_v what_o it_o be_v they_o teach_v about_o purgatory_n we_o shall_v quick_o perceive_v how_o little_a it_o be_v they_o pretend_v to_o prove_v of_o it_o they_o tell_v we_o that_o there_o be_v a_o purgatory-fire_n after_o this_o life_n where_o man_n undergo_v the_o punishment_n of_o their_o sin_n when_o the_o fault_n be_v pardon_v that_o the_o church_n have_v power_n out_o of_o her_o stock_n of_o merit_n which_o consist_v of_o the_o supererogate_a work_n of_o great_a and_o eminent_a saint_n to_o grant_v pardon_n and_o indulgency_n to_o man_n while_o they_o live_v to_o deliver_v they_o from_o several_a thousand_o year_n punishment_n which_o be_v due_a to_o their_o sin_n in_o purgatory_n that_o the_o soul_n in_o purgatory_n may_v be_v release_v out_o of_o it_o by_o the_o prayer_n and_o alm_n and_o mass_n of_o the_o live_n which_o be_v the_o very_a life_n and_o soul_n of_o this_o doctrine_n of_o purgatory_n now_o of_o all_o this_o they_o pretend_v to_o prove_v no_o more_o from_o scripture_n but_o that_o there_o be_v a_o purgatory-fire_n after_o this_o life_n and_o how_o they_o prove_v it_o you_o have_v already_o hear_v but_o that_o either_o penance_n or_o pilgrimage_n and_o other_o extraordinary_a act_n of_o devotion_n while_o we_o live_v or_o the_o pope_n pardon_n and_o indulgency_n can_v either_o remit_v or_o shorten_v the_o pain_n of_o purgatory_n or_o that_o the_o prayer_n and_o alm_n of_o our_o live_a friend_n or_o mass_n say_v for_o we_o by_o mercenary_a priest_n can_v deliver_v we_o out_o of_o purgatory_n which_o we_o be_v principal_o concern_v to_o know_v and_o without_o which_o purgatory_n will_v not_o enrich_v the_o priest_n nor_o the_o church_n this_o they_o never_o attempt_v that_o i_o know_v of_o to_o prove_v by_o scripture_n whether_o there_o be_v a_o purgatory_n or_o not_o in_o itself_o consider_v be_v a_o mere_a speculative_a point_n and_o of_o no_o value_n but_o can_v they_o prove_v that_o the_o pope_n have_v the_o key_n of_o purgatory_n and_o that_o alm_n and_o mass_n will_v deliver_v out_o of_o purgatory_n this_o be_v worth_a know_v and_o be_v as_o well_o worth_a prove_v as_o any_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n for_o there_o be_v nothing_o they_o get_v more_o by_o but_o if_o you_o will_v not_o believe_v this_o till_o they_o produce_v a_o scripture-proof_n of_o it_o you_o may_v let_v they_o dispute_v on_o about_o the_o place_n of_o purgatory_n and_o keep_v your_o money_n in_o your_o pocket_n thus_o it_o be_v in_o most_o other_o case_n if_o you_o take_v their_o whole_a doctrine_n together_o and_o demand_v a_o proof_n of_o every_o part_n of_o it_o and_o not_o take_v a_o proof_n of_o some_o little_a branch_n of_o it_o for_o a_o proof_n of_o the_o whole_a you_o will_v quick_o find_v that_o they_o will_v not_o be_v so_o fond_a of_o dispute_v as_o some_o of_o they_o now_o be_v 3._o another_o way_n our_o roman_a adversary_n have_v of_o prove_v their_o doctrine_n from_o scripture_n be_v instead_o of_o plain_a and_o positive_a proof_n to_o produce_v some_o very_a remote_a and_o inevident_a consequence_n from_o scripture_n and_o if_o they_o can_v but_o hale_v a_o text_n of_o scripture_n into_o the_o premise_n whatever_o the_o conclusion_n be_v they_o call_v it_o a_o scripture-proof_n there_o be_v infinite_a instance_n of_o this_o but_o i_o can_v only_o name_v some_o few_o thus_o they_o prove_v the_o perpetual_a infallibility_n of_o the_o church_n because_o christ_n promise_v his_o disciple_n to_o be_v with_o they_o to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n 28._o matth._n 20._o which_o promise_n can_v be_v confine_v to_o their_o person_n for_o they_o be_v to_o die_v long_o before_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o must_v extend_v to_o their_o successor_n suppose_v that_o and_o do_v christ_n be_v with_o they_o necessary_o signify_v that_o he_o will_v make_v they_o infallible_a be_v not_o christ_n with_o every_o particular_a church_n with_o every_o particular_a bishop_n nay_o with_o every_o particular_a good_a christian_n and_o must_v they_o all_o be_v infallible_a then_o thus_o christ_n promise_v that_o the_o gate_n of_o hell_n shall_v not_o prevail_v against_o his_o church_n ergo_fw-la the_o church_n be_v infallible_a for_o if_o error_n and_o heresy_n prevail_v against_o the_o church_n the_o gate_n of_o hell_n prevail_v against_o it_o and_o i_o add_v if_o sin_n and_o wickedness_n prevail_v against_o the_o church_n the_o gate_n of_o hell_n prevail_v against_o it_o ergo_fw-la the_o church_n be_v impeccable_a and_o can_v sin_n which_o be_v to_o the_o full_a as_o good_a a_o consequence_n as_o the_o other_o and_o therefore_o the_o gate_n of_o hell_n prevail_v can_v neither_o signify_v the_o mere_a prevalency_n of_o error_n or_o sin_n in_o the_o church_n but_o such_o a_o prevalency_n as_o destroy_v the_o church_n and_o this_o shall_v never_o be_v because_o christ_n have_v promise_v it_o shall_v never_o be_v and_o it_o may_v never_o be_v though_o the_o
