deny_v that_o wicked_a man_n and_o reprobate_n may_v be_v of_o particular_a church_n but_o not_o of_o the_o catholic_a of_o particular_n because_o to_o be_v in_o a_o particular_a church_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o for_o a_o man_n to_o join_v himself_o in_o that_o society_n which_o profess_v true_a religion_n but_o to_o be_v of_o the_o catholic_a church_n be_v to_o be_v join_v to_o
