call_v do_v build_v upon_o their_o foundation_n and_o do_v first_o of_o all_o set_v forth_o the_o word_n of_o god_n in_o certain_a place_n whether_o the_o succession_n of_o person_n be_v perpetual_a or_o whether_o it_o decay_n or_o cease_v for_o a_o time_n whereas_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n they_o which_o either_o preach_v not_o the_o word_n of_o god_n at_o all_o or_o else_o preach_v their_o own_o doctrine_n in_o steed_n of_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n although_o they_o allege_v and_o bring_v in_o for_o themselves_o a_o thousand_o continual_a successor_n be_v not_o to_o be_v hear_v as_o pastor_n but_o to_o be_v shun_v as_o wolf_n according_a to_o the_o express_a commandment_n of_o christ_n jesus_n and_o of_o his_o apostle_n but_o some_o man_n will_v object_v and_o say_v be_v it_o lawful_a then_o for_o objection_n every_o man_n to_o preach_v the_o word_n and_o to_o minister_v the_o sacrament_n no_o true_o it_o ought_v not_o so_o to_o be_v for_o all_o thing_n must_v be_v do_v in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v 14._o in_o order_n who_o be_v then_o true_a pastor_n sure_o such_o as_o be_v lawful_o call_v it_o rest_v therefore_o now_o to_o consider_v what_o be_v lawful_a call_n extraordinary_a that_o this_o special_a matter_n also_o may_v be_v understand_v we_o say_v that_o there_o be_v one_o form_n and_o manner_n of_o ordinary_a call_n and_o another_o of_o extraordinary_a call_n that_o be_v ordinary_a call_n in_o the_o which_o the_o order_n appoint_v of_o god_o in_o the_o church_n be_v observe_v in_o this_o order_n the_o first_o thing_n be_v the_o examination_n 1_o of_o doctrine_n and_o manner_n the_o second_o lawful_a 2_o election_n and_o the_o last_o imposition_n of_o hand_n these_o three_o 3_o thing_n may_v be_v gather_v &_o approve_a by_o diverse_a testimony_n of_o scripture_n as_o by_o the_o election_n of_o mathias_n and_o of_o the_o seven_o 1._o deacon_n in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o also_o by_o those_o thing_n which_o paul_n write_v in_o his_o epistle_n to_o timothy_n &_o to_o t●…tus_n this_o be_v the_o description_n of_o ordinary_a call_n whereby_o it_o may_v be_v gather_v that_o the_o same_o be_v a_o extraordinary_a call_n in_o the_o which_o although_o it_o be_v lawful_a by_o god_n authority_n either_o one_o of_o these_o two_o thing_n or_o both_o or_o else_o all_o be_v want_v the_o which_o kind_n of_o calling_n god_n have_v oftentimes_o use_v as_o in_o the_o scripture_n appear_v for_o who_o lay_v hand_n 14._o on_o moses_n to_o dedicate_v aaron_n who_o anoint_v the_o prophet_n esayas_n daniel_n amos_n and_o many_o other_o therefore_o when_o they_o which_o have_v authority_n abuse_v the_o power_n of_o ordinary_a call_n than_o i_o say_v it_o be_v necessary_a that_o the_o lord_n shall_v use_v extraordinary_a mean_n not_o to_o bring_v in_o confusion_n but_o to_o reform_v those_o which_o have_v pervert_v and_o deprave_a all_o thing_n in_o the_o church_n under_o the_o colour_n and_o pretence_n of_o ordinary_a succession_n and_o that_o the_o matter_n stand_v thus_o the_o write_n of_o the_o prophet_n which_o special_o inveye_v against_o the_o priest_n do_v manifest_o declare_v if_o any_o man_n object_n and_o say_v that_o they_o have_v extraordinary_a 3._o testimony_n of_o their_o calling_n confirm_v with_o certain_a miracle_n we_o answer_v that_o this_o be_v so_o far_o true_a in_o some_o that_o in_o other_o some_o it_o be_v stark_o false_a except_o we_o shall_v speak_v of_o those_o thing_n of_o the_o which_o there_o be_v no_o testimony_n and_o true_o i_o can_v tell_v whether_o there_o be_v many_o prophet_n to_o be_v find_v of_o the_o progeny_n of_o aaron_n upon_o who_o hand_n be_v lay_v after_o a_o ordinary_a manner_n if_o in_o like_a manner_n it_o be_v allege_v that_o they_o content_v themselves_o with_o the_o office_n of_o reprehend_v and_o reprove_v and_o exercise_v not_o the_o office_n of_o sacrifice_v we_o answer_v first_o of_o all_o that_o this_o be_v not_o find_v every_o where_o to_o be_v true_a for_o samuel_n which_o be_v not_o of_o the_o family_n of_o aaron_n 18._o but_o of_o chore_n sacrifice_v in_o mispa_n and_o elias_n in_o carmel_n second_o we_o answer_v that_o it_o ought_v not_o to_o seem_v strange_a that_o the_o prophet_n at_o that_o time_n extend_v not_o that_o extraordinary_a office_n to_o the_o do_v and_o fulfil_n of_o ceremony_n see_v that_o the_o same_o office_n do_v appertain_v by_o inheritance_n to_o the_o kindred_n and_o stock_n of_o levi_n which_o at_o this_o day_n be_v out_o of_o use_n thus_o far_o therefore_o concern_v these_o special_a point_n what_o be_v the_o church_n what_o be_v the_o mark_n of_o the_o same_o what_o be_v the_o vocation_n of_o pastor_n we_o have_v speak_v our_o judgement_n the_o which_o thing_n if_o you_o mean_v to_o call_v in_o question_n &_o to_o seek_v and_o try_v whether_o they_o be_v in_o our_o church_n or_o in_o our_o person_n we_o trust_v by_o the_o help_n of_o god_n to_o bring_v such_o certain_a reason_n that_o no_o man_n can_v doubt_v that_o we_o have_v the_o true_a church_n and_o that_o our_o call_n be_v lawful_a now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o three_o principal_a point_n which_o concern_v 11._o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n it_o be_v manifest_a by_o those_o thing_n whereof_o we_o have_v speak_v already_o that_o we_o do_v derogate_v nor_o take_v away_o none_o of_o those_o precious_a &_o magnificent_a note_n with_o 14._o the_o which_o the_o church_n be_v beautify_v but_o we_o say_v that_o it_o be_v the_o body_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o as_z yet_o it_o be_v a_o pilgrim_n in_o this_o world_n look_v for_o the_o fullness_n of_o the_o head_n that_o be_v christ._n this_o be_v the_o house_n 4._o of_o the_o lord_n which_o be_v daily_o build_v &_o erect_v by_o little_a &_o little_a which_o be_v govern_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o as_o yet_o fight_v against_o the_o flesh_n it_o be_v purify_v but_o so_o that_o by_o little_a &_o little_o it_o 5._o may_v be_v bring_v to_o the_o perfection_n of_o that_o beauty_n &_o cleanness_n in_o the_o which_o there_o be_v neither_o spot_n nor_o wrinkle_n it_o know_v 13._o god_n but_o in_o part_n to_o be_v short_a we_o confess_v that_o out_o of_o the_o church_n there_o be_v no_o salvation_n sing_v there_o be_v life_n no_o where_o else_o than_o in_o christ_n jesus_n who_o exercise_v his_o quicken_a life_n in_o no_o other_o than_o in_o his_o member_n the_o vinion_n and_o coagmentation_n whereof_o be_v call_v the_o church_n but_o in_o this_o all_o the_o whole_a err_v controversy_n consist_v namely_o whether_o the_o church_n may_v err_v in_o this_o world_n whether_o it_o be_v subject_a unto_o the_o scripture_n or_o the_o scripture_n unto_o it_o to_o the_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v out_o of_o all_o controversy_n &_o doubt_n that_o the_o particular_a member_n of_o the_o church_n may_v err_v &_o do_v daily_o err_v both_o in_o doctrine_n &_o in_o manner_n according_a to_o this_o place_n of_o the_o apostle_n paul_n say_v we_o know_v in_o part_n and_o s._n john_n say_v if_o we_o say_v we_o have_v no_o 1._o sin_n we_o deceive_v ourselves_o if_o any_o man_n will_v go_v about_o to_o exempt_v the_o ancient_a father_n from_o that_o number_n he_o shall_v not_o be_v offend_v if_o we_o believe_v not_o his_o word_n for_o it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n save_v in_o reverence_n which_o we_o owe_v unto_o they_o to_o note_v many_o blemish_n &_o spot_n even_o in_o the_o great_a &_o most_o ancient_a father_n but_o we_o will_v not_o stand_v in_o repeat_v of_o they_o both_o for_o the_o honour_n which_o they_o worthy_o deserve_v &_o also_o for_o that_o the_o lord_n cardinal_n if_o i_o well_o remember_v his_o word_n think_v not_o that_o they_o ought_v rash_o and_o indifferent_o to_o be_v receive_v this_o be_v our_o opnion_n concern_v the_o particular_a member_n of_o the_o church_n who_o perfection_n notwithstanding_o be_v no_o such_o cause_n or_o let_v but_o that_o the_o church_n may_v consist_v of_o they_o for_o the_o faithful_a profit_n by_o lit●…le_n and_o little_a both_o in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o also_o in_o the_o perfection_n of_o manner_n but_o and_o if_o the_o member_n of_o the_o church_n be_v consider_v more_o general_o as_o they_o be_v distribute_v into_o diocese_n &_o province_n shall_v we_o say_v that_o they_o may_v err_v moreover_o if_o i_o be_v not_o deceive_v my_o lord_n cardinal_n think_v of_o late_a that_o particular_a church_n and_o provincial_a counsel_n may_v err_v and_o have_v oftentimes_o err_v and_o true_o this_o thing_n be_v confirm_v by_o so_o long_a experience_n that_o i_o think_v not_o that_o any_o man_n in_o his_o right_a counsel_n wit_n will_v deny_v the_o same_o it_o remain_v therefore_o that_o we_o consider_v the_o whole_a church_n universal_o but_o

by_o the_o church_n of_o france_n we_o belcue_v and_o confess_v one_o god_n which_o be_v the_o only_a and_o simple_a spiritual_a essence_n eternal_a invisible_a immutable_a infinite_a incomprehensible_a unspeakable_a omnipotent_a only_o wise_a good_a just_a and_o merciful_a 2_o this_o only_a god_n show_v himself_o to_o be_v such_o a_o one_o unto_o man_n first_o both_o in_o the_o creation_n of_o his_o work_n and_o also_o in_o the_o conservation_n &_o govern_v of_o they_o second_o in_o his_o word_n &_o that_o more_o evident_o the_o which_o word_n in_o the_o beginni_n he_o reveal_v unto_o the_o father_n by_o certain_a vision_n and_o oracle_n and_o afterward_o will_v have_v it_o to_o be_v write_v in_o those_o book_n which_o we_o call_v the_o book_n of_o holy_a scripture_n 3_o all_o this_o holy_a scripture_n be_v comprehend_v in_o the_o canonical_a scripture_n book_n of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n the_o catalogue_n of_o the_o which_o book_n be_v

we_o confess_v to_o be_v canonical_a that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o rule_n and_o stay_v of_o our_o faith_n the_o which_o we_o have_v not_o only_o by_o the_o common_a consent_n of_o the_o church_n but_o also_o much_o more_o by_o the_o testimony_n and_o inward_a persuasion_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n by_o the_o instinct_n and_o motion_n whereof_o we_o be_v teach_v to_o discern_v they_o from_o other_o ecclesiastical_a book_n the_o which_o although_o they_o be_v profitable_a yet_o notwithstanding_o they_o be_v not_o such_o that_o we_o shall_v ground_v any_o article_n of_o our_o faith_n upon_o they_o 5_o we_o believe_v that_o the_o word_n comprehend_v in_o these_o word_n book_n come_v from_o god_n alone_o from_o who_o only_o it_o have_v his_o authority_n and_o not_o from_o man_n and_o see_v this_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o all_o truth_n contain_v whatsoever_o be_v requisite_a for_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n and_o our_o salvation_n we_o say_v that_o it_o be_v not_o meet_v neither_o for_o man_n nor_o yet_o for_o angel_n to_o add_v or_o detract_v any_o thing_n from_o the_o same_o word_n or_o to_o alter_v any_o thing_n in_o the_o same_o and_o hereupon_o it_o follow_v that_o neither_o antiquity_n nor_o custom_n nor_o multitude_n nor_o humane_a wisdom_n nor_o judgement_n nor_o edict_n nor_o decree_n nor_o counsel_n nor_o uision_n nor_o miracle_n aught_o to_o be_v compare_v or_o set_v against_o that_o word_n of_o god_n but_o rather_o that_o all_o thing_n ought_v to_o be_v bring_v and_o examine_v according_a to_o the_o prescript_n rule_v thereof_o wherefore_o also_o those_o three_o symbol_n or_o creed_n as_o the_o apostle_n crede_fw-la the_o nicene_n crede_fw-la and_o athanasius_n crede_fw-la credes_fw-la be_v allow_v of_o we_o because_o they_o be_v agree_v to_o that_o word_n of_o god._n 6_o this_o holy_a scripture_n teach_v we_o that_o in_o that_o singular_a and_o simple_a divine_a essence_n there_o be_v three_o person_n the_o father_n trinity_n the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o father_n be_v the_o first_o cause_n in_o order_n &_o the_o original_n of_o all_o thing_n the_o son_n be_v his_o wisdom_n and_o eternal_a word_n the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v the_o virtue_n power_n and_o efficacy_n of_o they_o both_o the_o son_n be_v beget_v of_o the_o father_n before_o all_o world_n the_o holy_a ghost_n proceed_v from_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n from_o everlasting_a the_o which_o three_o person_n be_v not_o confound_v but_o distinct_a and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o not_o separate_v but_o coessential_a coeternal_a and_o coequal_a together_o to_o conclude_v in_o this_o mystery_n we_o allow_v that_o which_o those_o four_o ancient_a counsel_n do_v determine_v and_o do_v detest_v all_o those_o sect_n and_o all_o other_o what_o soever_o condemn_v by_o those_o ancient_a holy_a father_n namely_o by_o athanasius_n hilarius_n cyrill_n ambrose_n and_o other_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god._n 7_o we_o believe_v that_o god_n the_o three_o person_n work_v together_o by_o his_o power_n wisdom_n &_o incomprehensible_a goodness_n make_v all_o thing_n that_o be_v to_o say_v not_o only_a heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o all_o thing_n in_o they_o contain_v but_o also_o invisible_a spirit_n of_o which_o some_o fall_v to_o perpetual_a destruction_n and_o other_o some_o abode_n still_o in_o their_o obedience_n the_o first_o as_o they_o be_v by_o their_o own_o wickedness_n deprave_a so_o be_v they_o perpetual_a enemy_n of_o all_o goodness_n and_o therefore_o of_o the_o whole_a church_n but_o the_o other_o be_v preserve_v by_o the_o mere_a grace_n of_o god_n be_v minister_n of_o his_o glory_n and_o appoint_v for_o the_o salvation_n of_o the_o elect_a 8_o we_o believe_v that_o god_n do_v not_o only_o create_v all_o thing_n but_o also_o rule_v and_o govern_v they_o and_o dispose_v also_o and_o order_v at_o his_o pleasure_n whatsoever_o be_v in_o the_o world_n notwithstanding_o we_o deem_v he_o to_o be_v the_o author_n of_o evil_a or_o of_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v do_v amiss_o in_o any_o wise_n to_o deserve_v blame_n see_v that_o his_o will_n be_v the_o chief_a and_o most_o certain_a mark_n and_o rule_v of_o righteousness_n and_o justice_n for_o he_o have_v rather_o admirable_a than_o speakeable_a reason_n by_o which_o he_o so_o use_v all_o devil_n and_o sinful_a man_n as_o instrument_n that_o whatsoever_o they_o wicked_o do_v the_o same_o as_o he_o do_v just_o ordain_v so_o also_o he_o tourn_v it_o to_o good_a therefore_o when_o we_o confess_v that_o nothing_o be_v do_v without_o his_o providence_n and_o ordinance_n we_o do_v humble_o adore_v the_o secret_a mystery_n that_o be_v hide_v from_o we_o neither_o do_v we_o curious_o inquire_v and_o seek_v after_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v above_o our_o capacity_n but_o do_v rather_o apply_v that_o to_o our_o use_n and_o profit_n which_o the_o scripture_n teach_v for_o our_o quietness_n and_o tranquillity_n namely_o that_o god_n to_o who_o all_o thing_n be_v subject_n do_v with_o fartherly_a carefulness_n watch_v for_o we_o in_o so_o much_o that_o not_o one_o hear_v of_o our_o head_n shall_v fall_v away_o without_o his_o wil._n and_o as_o for_o satan_n and_o all_o our_o enemy_n he_o have_v they_o in_o such_o hold_n and_o bond_n that_o except_o they_o have_v power_n give_v unto_o they_o from_o he_o they_o can_v do_v nothing_o at_o all_o unto_o us._n 9_o we_o believe_v that_o man_n be_v create_v pure_a and_o perfect_v and_o according_a to_o the_o image_n of_o god_n fall_v through_o his_o own_o fault_n from_o the_o grace_n which_o he_o have_v receive_v and_o therefore_o cast_v himself_o from_o god_n the_o wellspring_n of_o all_o righteousness_n man._n and_o goodness_n in_o so_o much_o that_o his_o nature_n be_v altogether_o

notwithstanding_o we_o affirm_v that_o whatsoever_o light_n he_o have_v in_o he_o the_o same_o be_v turn_v into_o darkness_n when_o he_o seek_v after_o god_n in_o so_o much_o that_o no_o manner_n of_o
