a_o treatise_n of_o the_o unwritten_a word_n of_o god_n common_o call_v tradition_n write_a in_o latin_a by_o the_o r._n father_n james_n gordon_n huntley_n of_o scotland_n doctor_n of_o divinity_n of_o the_o society_n of_o jesus_n and_o translate_v into_o english_a by_o i._n l._n of_o the_o same_o society_n the_o second_o part_n of_o the_o first_o controversy_n permissu_fw-la superiorum_fw-la m._n dc_o fourteen_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o the_o true_a state_n of_o the_o question_n have_v already_o in_o the_o precedent_a treatise_n speak_v of_o the_o write_a word_n of_o god_n and_o of_o all_o other_o thing_n thereunto_o belong_v now_o it_o remain_v we_o speak_v a_o little_a of_o the_o unwritten_a word_n common_o call_v tradition_n but_o to_o the_o end_n that_o the_o state_n of_o this_o controversy_n may_v more_o easy_o be_v understand_v i_o will_v here_o set_v down_o four_o thing_n diligent_o to_o be_v consider_v in_o this_o matter_n we_o treat_v of_o the_o first_o be_v that_o by_o the_o unwritten_a word_n we_o only_o understand_v that_o which_o be_v not_o write_v in_o the_o old_a or_o new_a testament_n for_o of_o the_o unwritten_a word_n of_o god_n in_o this_o sense_n be_v our_o whole_a controversy_n in_o this_o place_n wherefore_o that_o objection_n of_o our_o adversary_n be_v both_o frivolous_a and_o nothing_o worth_a to_o wit_n that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o we_o call_v the_o unwriten_a word_n may_v be_v find_v extant_a either_o among_o the_o holy_a father_n or_o in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o counsel_n or_o other_o canon_n of_o the_o church_n but_o this_o nothing_o belong_v unto_o this_o purpose_n for_o it_o be_v sufficient_a for_o we_o that_o this_o word_n of_o god_n be_v not_o write_v in_o any_o book_n either_o of_o the_o old_a or_o new_a testament_n 2._o the_o second_o be_v that_o a_o thing_n may_v be_v contain_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n 2._o way_n the_o one_o way_n be_v implicit_a that_o be_v to_o say_v in_o some_o general_a principle_n from_o whence_o this_o other_o may_v be_v certain_o deduce_v and_o in_o this_o sense_n we_o acknowledge_v that_o the_o whole_a word_n of_o god_n be_v contain_v in_o holy_a writ_n and_o not_o only_o in_o scripture_n but_o also_o in_o the_o apostle_n creed_n yea_o even_o in_o that_o one_o article_n i_o believe_v the_o catholic_a church_n so_o that_o it_o be_v diligent_o examine_v and_o well_o understand_v as_o s._n augustine_n 40._o very_o well_o note_v for_o so_o say_v christ_n the_o whole_a law_n and_o prophet_n do_v depend_v upon_o two_o precept_n of_o charity_n as_o in_o the_o same_o place_n s._n augustine_n note_v for_o see_v that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n teach_v that_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o believe_v the_o church_n in_o all_o thing_n &_o that_o it_o can_v neither_o deceive_v we_o nor_o be_v deceive_v as_o we_o will_v evident_o prove_v in_o the_o next_o controversy_n in_o the_o 〈◊〉_d chapter_n it_o consequent_o also_o teach_v the_o whole_a and_o entire_a word_n of_o god_n see_v that_o all_o that_o which_o be_v not_o express_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v contain_v express_o in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n the_o which_o the_o scripture_n commend_v unto_o we_o as_o infallible_a as_o s._n augustine_n very_o well_o say_v and_o declare_v 16._o in_o many_o place_n for_o even_o as_o god_n the_o father_n comprehend_v in_o these_o few_o word_n this_o be_v my_o wellbeloved_a son_n hear_v he_o the_o whole_a word_n of_o god_n so_o christ_n propose_v unto_o we_o the_o whole_a word_n of_o god_n when_o he_o command_v we_o to_o hear_v the_o church_n 3._o and_o in_o this_o sense_n do_v the_o holy_a father_n oftentimes_o say_v that_o all_o the_o point_n of_o faith_n be_v contain_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n to_o wit_n in_o that_o general_a principle_n in_o the_o which_o they_o admonish_v we_o to_o believe_v the_o church_n but_o many_o of_o the_o holy_a father_n saying_n be_v falsify_v &_o corrupt_v by_o martinꝰ_n kennitius_n and_o some_o caluinist_n as_o may_v be_v see_v in_o judocus_n ruesten_n in_o his_o first_o tome_n defend_v the_o council_n of_o trent_n against_o kemnitius_n 4._o second_o a_o thing_n may_v be_v contain_v in_o express_a word_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o that_o christ_n be_v bear_v suffer_v and_o rise_v again_o etc._n etc._n and_o in_o this_o sense_n we_o deny_v that_o the_o whole_a word_n of_o god_n be_v contain_v in_o the_o scripture_n that_o objection_n of_o our_o adversary_n by_o this_o may_v easy_o be_v answer_v when_o they_o say_v that_o we_o affirm_v that_o tradition_n be_v the_o unwriten_a word_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o we_o go_v about_o to_o prove_v they_o by_o scripture_n for_o we_o do_v not_o prove_v every_o particular_a tradition_n by_o express_a word_n of_o scripture_n but_o we_o only_o deduce_v and_o gather_v they_o out_o of_o it_o and_o convince_v in_o general_a that_o there_o be_v tradition_n 5._o the_o three_o thing_n which_o be_v to_o be_v consider_v be_v that_o our_o adversary_n be_v convince_v by_o truth_n do_v acknowledge_v that_o many_o thing_n be_v deliver_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o apostle_n beside_o those_o which_o be_v write_v but_o say_v they_o those_o be_v only_o external_a rite_n and_o ceremony_n serve_v only_o for_o the_o ornament_n or_o discipline_n of_o the_o church_n but_o nothing_o concern_v doctrine_n of_o faith_n be_v deliver_v by_o the_o apostle_n which_o they_o have_v not_o set_v down_o in_o writing_n so_o calvin_n and_o 158●…_n some_o other_o which_o follow_v his_o opinion_n wherefore_o it_o remain_v for_o we_o to_o prove_v that_o not_o only_o external_a ceremony_n but_o also_o those_o which_o belong_v unto_o the_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n be_v deliver_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o apostle_n and_o that_o they_o be_v never_o express_o set_v down_o in_o writing_n 6._o the_o four_o thing_n be_v that_o see_v our_o adversary_n can_v deny_v that_o which_o be_v object_v unto_o they_o by_o catholic_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o scripture_n in_o many_o place_n make_v express_v mention_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n preach_v deliver_v and_o diwlge_v over_o the_o whole_a world_n as_o we_o have_v already_o declare_v even_o out_o of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n they_o be_v wont_n to_o answer_v that_o long_o since_o in_o the_o apostle_n time_n this_o word_n of_o god_n be_v deliver_v preach_v and_o not_o write_v but_o the_o apostle_n afterward_o set_v down_o in_o write_v all_o the_o preach_v word_n of_o god_n or_o at_o the_o least_o as_o much_o thereof_o as_o be_v necessary_a unto_o salvation_n the_o which_o solution_n albeit_o it_o be_v very_o weak_a and_o frivolous_a see_v that_o it_o rely_v upon_o no_o sure_a ground_n yet_o notwithstanding_o that_o it_o may_v more_o full_o be_v confute_v we_o will_v declare_v hereafter_o that_o many_o of_o the_o chief_a point_n of_o faith_n be_v not_o express_o set_v down_o in_o write_v by_o the_o apostle_n and_o thus_o much_o of_o the_o state_n of_o this_o question_n chap._n ii_o out_o of_o the_o first_o and_o chief_a principle_n of_o faith_n it_o be_v clear_o convince_v that_o there_o be_v tradition_n the_o first_o argument_n whereby_o we_o prove_v tradition_n be_v take_v out_o of_o some_o of_o the_o chief_a principle_n of_o faith_n for_o there_o be_v three_o chief_a and_o most_o necessary_a point_n of_o faith_n yea_o the_o thief_n ground_n of_o our_o whole_a faith_n which_o be_v not_o to_o he_o find_v express_o in_o scripture_n 2._o the_o first_o that_o there_o must_v needs_o be_v some_o catalogue_n or_o canon_n of_o the_o sacred_a book_n aswell_o of_o the_o old_a as_o of_o the_o new_a testament_n the_o which_o all_o christian_n with_o a_o assure_a faith_n shall_v embrace_v as_o a_o most_o certain_a and_o a_o undoubted_a truth_n and_o this_o be_v a_o very_a necessary_a point_n of_o faith_n yea_o of_o it_o depend_v the_o authority_n of_o all_o the_o book_n of_o holy_a scripture_n because_o by_o this_o canon_n the_o sacred_a and_o true_a book_n of_o scripture_n be_v discern_v and_o make_v know_v from_o all_o those_o which_o be_v apochriphall_a especial_o because_o aswell_o in_o time_n pass_v as_o in_o these_o our_o day_n there_o have_v be_v so_o many_o and_o so_o great_a controversye_n about_o the_o canonical_a and_o apochriphall_a book_n of_o scripture_n and_o such_o a_o canon_n be_v altogether_o necessary_a aswell_o in_o the_o ancient_a church_n before_o christ_n as_o in_o our_o present_a church_n after_o christ_n time_n the_o which_o also_o our_o adversary_n themselves_o have_v learn_v by_o experience_n for_o they_o have_v also_o place_v their_o new_a canon_n of_o the_o book_n of_o holy_a scripture_n in_o their_o confession_n make_v at_o 3._o rochel_n and_o in_o the_o late_a end_n of_o some_o of_o their_o bibles_n and_o yet_o neither_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n nor_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o

and_o hold_v the_o tradition_n which_o you_o have_v learn_v whether_o it_o be_v by_o word_n or_o by_o our_o epistle_n he_o write_v thus_o hence_o it_o appear_v say_v s._n chrysostome_n that_o he_o do_v not_o deliver_v all_o thing_n unto_o they_o by_o his_o epistle_n but_o many_o thing_n also_o without_o his_o letter_n but_o as_o well_o these_o as_o those_o other_o worthy_o deserve_v thessaly_n to_o be_v believe_v therefore_o we_o esteem_v the_o tradition_n also_o of_o the_o church_n to_o be_v worthy_a of_o credit_n it_o be_v a_o tradition_n seek_v no_o further_o thus_o s._n chrysostome_n but_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o the_o apostle_n and_o consequent_o s._n chrysostome_n also_o 7._o who_o expound_v he_o do_v not_o only_o speak_v of_o ceremony_n and_o custom_n but_o also_o of_o point_n of_o faith_n 3._o s._n augustine_n who_o calvin_n acknowledge_v to_o be_v the_o best_a and_o most_o faithful_a witness_n of_o antiquity_n write_v in_o this_o manner_n many_o thing_n be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v in_o the_o apostle_n write_n nor_o in_o the_o ensew_a counsel_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o because_o they_o be_v general_o keep_v through_o out_o the_o whole_a catholic_a church_n they_o be_v iuge_v to_o have_v be_v deliver_v and_o commend_v by_o none_o but_o by_o they_o thus_o s._n augustine_n neither_o can_v it_o be_v say_v that_o s._n augustine_n speak_v of_o ceremony_n and_o not_o of_o point_n of_o fayah_n for_o in_o that_o place_n he_o prove_v against_o the_o donatist_n that_n those_o which_o be_v baptize_v in_o the_o accustom_a form_n and_o matter_n by_o heretic_n be_v not_o to_o be_v baptize_v again_o but_o none_o unless_o he_o be_v a_o anabaptist_n will_v deny_v that_o this_o be_v a_o point_n of_o faith_n chap._n vi_o wherein_o even_o by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o our_o adversary_n it_o be_v prove_v that_o there_o be_v tradition_n the_o four_o argument_n whereby_o we_o prove_v tradition_n be_v take_v out_o of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o our_o adversary_n for_o all_o those_o thing_n which_o our_o adversary_n do_v affirm_v to_o be_v point_n of_o faith_n against_o the_o catholic_a doctrine_n they_o teach_v and_o believe_v they_o without_o any_o express_a scripture_n for_o it_o can_v be_v find_v express_o in_o scripture_n that_o faith_n only_o iustifyeh_a that_o there_o be_v only_o two_o sacrament_n of_o the_o new_a law_n that_o none_o shall_v pray_v for_o the_o dead_a etc._n etc._n for_o all_o these_o thing_n and_o many_o other_o which_o they_o teach_v against_o we_o they_o gather_v only_o out_o of_o scripture_n and_o that_o by_o some_o false_a and_o very_o weak_a consequence_n but_o it_o be_v no_o where_o express_o write_v that_o faith_n only_o justify_v that_o there_o be_v only_o two_o sacrament_n that_o we_o must_v not_o pray_v to_o saint_n or_o for_o the_o dead_a etc._n etc._n 2._o moreover_o there_o can_v no_o catholic_a be_v find_v who_o do_v not_o receive_v and_o assure_o believe_v the_o whole_a authentical_a text_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n why_o do_v they_o therefore_o condemn_v we_o when_o they_o affirm_v that_o nothing_o be_v to_o be_v believe_v beside_o the_o text_n of_o scripture_n whereas_o the_o whole_a controversy_n betwixt_o they_o and_o we_o be_v of_o the_o unwritten_a point_n of_o faith_n which_o we_o affirm_v &_o they_o deny_v 3._o our_o adversary_n be_v convince_v by_o this_o argument_n do_v now_o at_o the_o last_o confess_v that_o not_o only_o that_o be_v to_o be_v admit_v and_o believe_v as_o the_o pure_a word_n of_o god_n 1581._o which_o be_v express_o write_v in_o holy_a scripture_n but_o all_o that_o also_o which_o by_o a_o necessary_a consequence_n may_v be_v gather_v out_o of_o it_o 4._o but_o when_o they_o answer_v thus_o they_o be_v force_v to_o depart_v and_o forsake_v that_o their_o first_o principle_n whereby_o they_o affirm_v that_o all_o the_o point_n of_o faith_n be_v express_o contain_v in_o scripture_n and_o that_o they_o be_v set_v down_o in_o write_v by_o the_o apostle_n 5._o furhermore_o not_o perceive_v so_o much_o they_o join_v in_o opinion_n with_o we_o so_o that_o they_o must_v needs_o indeed_o confess_v that_o the_o tradition_n of_o the_o church_n be_v altogether_o necessary_a for_o such_o thing_n as_o be_v gather_v out_o of_o scripture_n do_v rather_o belong_v to_o tradition_n then_o to_o express_v scripture_n for_o that_o which_o only_o consequent_o &_o by_o reason_v &_o discourse_v be_v gather_v out_o of_o scripture_n albeit_o it_o very_o well_o and_o necessary_o may_v be_v deduce_v from_o thence_o be_v not_o

the_o premise_n be_v express_o contain_v in_o the_o same_o premise_n for_o otherwise_o our_o discourse_n and_o argue_v be_v vain_a and_o to_o no_o purpose_n but_o therefore_o do_v we_o reason_n and_o discourse_n to_o the_o end_n that_o that_o which_o lie_v hide_v virtual_o in_o the_o premise_n may_v be_v express_o manife_v in_o the_o conclusion_n 6._o and_o that_o we_o may_v allege_v a_o example_n out_o of_o the_o scripture_n themselves_o when_o god_n the_o father_n say_v this_o be_v my_o well-beloved_a 5._o son_n hear_v he_o out_o of_o these_o word_n we_o may_v very_o well_o gather_v and_o by_o a_o necessary_a consequence_n that_o the_o whole_a doctrine_n of_o christ_n our_o lord_n be_v to_o be_v hear_v and_o receive_v of_o all_o yet_o none_o will_v say_v that_o all_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n be_v contain_v express_o in_o those_o few_o word_n and_o true_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v so_o fertile_a &_o plentiful_a that_o many_o point_n of_o faith_n do_v as_o yet_o lie_v

after_o so_o many_o debate_n and_o contention_n after_o so_o many_o book_n set_v forth_o against_o we_o after_o so_o many_o slander_n whereby_o our_o adversary_n charge_v we_o as_o though_o we_o

which_o right_o and_o without_o error_n be_v deduce_v or_o gather_v out_o of_o the_o express_a word_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n do_v belong_v unto_o the_o write_a word_n of_o god_n and_o be_v
