reason_n three_o but_o for_o all_o a.s._n in_o his_o epistle_n dedicatory_a have_v make_v such_o a_o great_a noise_n about_o miracle_n wrought_v by_o a_o roman_n catholic_n priest_n in_o and_o about_o london_n and_o westminster_n yet_o when_o he_o come_v to_o prove_v that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v powerful_a in_o miracle_n than_o he_o do_v just_a as_o much_o as_o nothing_o but_o take_v a_o easy_a way_n to_o get_v out_o from_o that_o thing_n which_o seem_o he_o undertake_v to_o go_v through_o with_o by_o refer_v of_o we_o for_o a_o witness_n of_o his_o affirmation_n to_o nostre_fw-fr dame_n de_fw-fr loretto_n nostre_fw-fr dame_n de_fw-fr montague_n nostre_fw-fr dame_n de_fw-fr hall_n and_o to_o the_o whole_a world_n etc._n etc._n now_o what_o a_o pitiful_a proof_n or_o witness_n be_v this_o which_o a.s._n direct_v we_o to_o for_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v the_o whole_a world_n lie_v in_o wickedness_n 1_o john_n 5.19_o and_o wonder_n after_o the_o beast_n by_o who_o lie_v miracle_n be_v wrought_v rev._n 13_o 3._o so_o that_o the_o miracle_n which_o the_o world_n bear_v witness_n to_o be_v lie_v miracle_n for_o the_o world_n know_v no●_n christ_n nor_o his_o church_n 1_o joh._n 3.1_o by_o who_o true_a miracle_n be_v wrought_v for_o when_o christ_n wrought_v miracle_n among_o the_o world_n they_o do_v not_o bear_v witness_n to_o he_o but_o say_v he_o do_v it_o by_o the_o prince_n of_o devil_n mat_n 9_o 34._o so_o that_o the_o witness_n that_o a.s._n call_v for_o confirm_v my_o forementioned_a affirmation_n viz._n that_o the_o miracle_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v wrought_v by_o the_o dragon_n power_n in_o the_o beast_n and_o false_a prophet_n that_o the_o whole_a world_n wonder_v after_o four_o and_o for_o nostre_fw-fr dame_n de_fw-fr loretto_fw-it and_o the_o rest_n mention_v they_o signify_v nothing_o as_o to_o our_o satisfaction_n in_o this_o particular_a because_o they_o be_v altogether_o unknown_a to_o we_o neither_o can_v we_o attain_v to_o a_o certain_a knowledge_n of_o they_o if_o we_o will_v for_o the_o information_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v to_o we_o no_o satisfaction_n so_o as_o i_o say_v before_o that_o a.s._n for_o matter_n of_o prove_v his_o affirmation_n have_v do_v just_a as_o much_o as_o nothing_o only_o make_v a_o show_n like_o a_o cloud_n without_o rain_n but_o methinks_v if_o there_o be_v so_o many_o miracle_n wrought_v daily_a by_o a_o roman_a priest_n about_o london_n etc._n etc._n as_o a.s._n seem_v to_o make_v a_o noise_n of_o he_o shall_v have_v instance_a some_o of_o they_o particular_o for_o our_o satisfaction_n but_o see_v he_o have_v not_o instance_a any_o we_o have_v just_a cause_n to_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v none_o at_o all_o nine_o so_o to_o proceed_v to_o the_o nine_o part_n of_o a._n s._n his_o first_o argument_n viz._n out_o of_o the_o true_a church_n none_o can_v be_v save_v i_o answer_v that_o thing_n i_o do_v not_o at_o all_o deny_v for_o all_o that_o be_v save_v be_v of_o the_o true_a church_n but_o that_o none_o can_v be_v save_v out_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n that_o i_o do_v deny_v for_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v not_o the_o true_a church_n but_o the_o whore_n that_o drink_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o saint_n as_o afore-proved_n therefore_o out_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n people_n may_v be_v save_v wherefore_o let_v all_o who_o expect_v or_o desire_v salvation_n make_v have_v out_o of_o this_o great_a city_n babylon_n and_o run_v for_o your_o life_n towards_o jerusalem_n the_o holy_a city_n the_o true_a church_n the_o lamb_n wife_n in_o who_o light_n the_o nation_n of_o they_o that_o be_v save_v must_v walk_v rev._n 21.24_o lest_o you_o perish_v within_o the_o border_n of_o babylon_n who_o desolation_n shall_v certain_o come_v in_o one_o day_n yea_o death_n and_o mourn_v and_o famine_n ●_o for_o strong_a be_v the_o lord_n who_o be_v now_o arisen_a and_o judge_v she_o well_o but_o if_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n say_v that_o she_o do_v not_o drink_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o saint_n discover_v but_o the_o blood_n of_o heretic_n etc._n etc._n and_o therefore_o she_o be_v the_o true_a church_n 1._o i_o answer_v so_o or_o to_o that_o effect_n say_v the_o destroyer_n and_o murderer_n in_o all_o age_n even_o they_o that_o put_v christ_n to_o death_n they_o do_v it_o not_o in_o their_o own_o account_n as_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n but_o as_o a_o blasphemer_n and_o the_o apostle_n be_v persecute_v as_o spreader_n of_o heresy_n and_o shedder_n of_o sedition_n and_o not_o as_o saint_n and_o servant_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o their_o adversary_n account_v act._n 24.5_o and_o thus_o the_o murder_a persecute_v spirit_n have_v in_o all_o age_n as_o at_o this_o day_n seek_v to_o shelter_v itself_o but_o this_o cover_n must_v now_o be_v rip_v off_o for_o the_o power_n of_o god_n be_v arisen_a that_o rend_v the_o vail_n of_o darkness_n and_o the_o day_n be_v dawn_v that_o make_v all_o thing_n manifest_v 2._o and_o far_o if_o they_o be_v heretic_n etc._n etc._n who_o blood_n the_o church_n of_o r●me_n drink_v yet_o that_o do_v not_o argue_v that_o she_o be_v the_o true_a church_n but_o the_o contrary_a for_o the_o true_a church_n do_v never_o drink_v the_o blood_n of_o heretic_n nor_o persecute_v any_o because_o they_o be_v heretic_n but_o the_o great_a punishment_n that_o ever_o christ_n appoint_v for_o heretic_n be_v that_o they_o shall_v account_v they_o as_o publican_n and_o heathen_n mat._n 18_o 17._o 3._o so_o its_o clear_a that_o christ_n the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o the_o true_a church_n that_o have_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n do_v never_o kill_v nor_o persecute_v any_o because_o they_o be_v heretic_n or_o do_v not_o believe_v nor_o yet_o because_o after_o they_o believe_v they_o make_v shipwreck_n of_o faith_n but_o labour_v in_o the_o spirit_n of_o love_n and_o meekness_n to_o restore_v they_o and_o to_o convince_v they_o by_o sound_a doctrine_n but_o if_o they_o refuse_v to_o receive_v admonition_n or_o to_o submit_v to_o the_o church_n after_o due_a admontion_n give_v than_o they_o let_v they_o receive_v the_o punishment_n aforesaid_a and_o refuse_v to_o have_v fellowship_n with_o they_o and_o this_o be_v the_o great_a punishment_n that_o ever_o the_o true_a church_n inflict_v upon_o any_o though_o they_o be_v rebellious_a and_o this_o be_v the_o way_n to_o make_v true_a believer_n of_o people_n which_o force_n and_o compulsion_n by_o penal_a law_n will_v never_o do_v though_o its_o true_a compulsive_a law_n may_v make_v many_o of_o they_o hypocrite_n who_o fear_v man_n more_o than_o god_n but_o they_o who_o fear_v not_o man_n that_o can_v kill_v the_o body_n and_o can_v do_v no_o more_o but_o fear_v the_o lord_n god_n almighty_a above_o all_o such_o will_v not_o bow_v to_o the_o compulsive_a law_n of_o man_n which_o violate_v the_o righteous_a law_n of_o god_n in_o their_o own_a heart_n no_o more_o than_o sbadrach_n meshach_n and_o abednego_n will_v bow_v to_o the_o image_n that_o nabuchadnezzar_n set_v up_o though_o for_o their_o steadfastness_n they_o suffer_v the_o pang_n of_o death_n as_o many_o of_o their_o predecessor_n have_v do_v who_o blood_n the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v drink_v thus_o much_o in_o brief_a to_o the_o nine_o particular_n of_o a.s._n his_o first_o argument_n by_o which_o i_o perceive_v he_o think_v he_o have_v infallible_o prove_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n to_o be_v the_o true_a church_n but_o what_o his_o argument_n be_v worth_a for_o his_o purpose_n let_v all_o who_o read_v this_o judge_n and_o the_o next_o thing_n he_o undertake_v be_v to_o prove_v peter_n to_o be_v the_o rock_n or_o foundation_n upon_o which_o christ_n build_v his_o church_n and_o to_o accomplish_v this_o design_n he_o ramble_n through_o several_a language_n into_o which_o the_o scripture_n have_v be_v translate_v and_o in_o the_o conclusion_n he_o say_v a_o great_a lie_n to_o peter_n then_o christ_n say_v upon_o thou_o i_o will_v build_v my_o church_n etc._n etc._n when_o neither_o of_o the_o several_a language_n which_o he_o make_v use_v of_o to_o prove_v it_o say_v any_o such_o thing_n according_a to_o his_o own_o interpretation_n of_o they_o and_o indeed_o its_o blasphemy_n in_o a.s._n to_o affirm_v it_o but_o then_o he_o say_v that_o christ_n be_v the_o primary_n rock_n and_o peter_n the_o secondary_a rock_n reply_n but_o how_o can_v that_o be_v that_o peter_n shall_v be_v a_o secondary_a rock_n for_o a.s._n can_v prove_v that_o god_n ever_o ordain_v or_o appoint_v a_o secondary_a rock_n to_o build_v his_o church_n on_o neither_o do_v we_o in_o all_o the_o scripture_n read_v of_o a_o secondary_a rock_n once_o mention_v for_o the_o apostle_n affirm_v the_o contrary_a say_v another_o foundation_n can_v no_o man_n lay_v
