faithful_a to_o one_o kind_n only_o but_o on_o the_o contrary_a that_o it_o be_v to_o hinder_v the_o irreverency_n that_o the_o confusion_n and_o negligence_n of_o the_o people_n have_v cause_v in_o the_o last_o age_n reserve_v unto_o herself_o the_o re-establishment_n of_o the_o communion_n under_o both_o kind_n according_a as_o it_o shall_v be_v most_o useful_a for_o increase_v of_o peace_n and_o unity_n but_o be_v not_o this_o in_o some_o sort_n to_o say_v that_o our_o saviour_n do_v not_o foresee_v these_o irreverency_n when_o he_o command_v we_o shall_v all_o drink_v of_o the_o cup_n or_o that_o foresee_v they_o he_o be_v so_o far_o from_o prevent_v they_o that_o he_o authorize_v they_o by_o this_o commandment_n these_o irreverency_n be_v much_o more_o to_o be_v fear_v in_o the_o apostle_n time_n and_o in_o the_o first_o age_n of_o christianity_n than_o in_o the_o time_n when_o this_o innovation_n be_v make_v for_o in_o the_o first_o time_n the_o christian_n be_v persecute_v they_o communicate_v as_o they_o can_v from_o house_n to_o house_n and_o communicate_v at_o the_o hold_v the_o feast_n which_o they_o call_v feast_n of_o charity_n the_o apostle_n complain_v of_o

the_o cup_n because_o of_o these_o irreverency_n they_o must_v be_v very_o much_o prejudicate_v who_o see_v not_o the_o true_a reason_n why_o neither_o jesus_n christ_n nor_o the_o apostle_n nor_o the_o church_n during_o the_o space_n of_o above_o a_o thousand_o year_n ever_o think_v of_o take_v away_o the_o cup_n and_o that_o yet_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n at_o last_o be_v think_v herself_o to_o take_v it_o away_o the_o
authority_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n which_o they_o pretend_v can_v err_v behold_v therefore_o the_o bishop_n of_o condom_n argument_n overthrow_v in_o all_o its_o part_n see_v that_o the_o

that_o it_o can_v be_v but_o by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n that_o we_o receive_v the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n the_o second_o that_o it_o be_v of_o the_o church_n that_o we_o learn_v tradition_n and_o by_o tradition_n the_o true_a sense_n of_o the_o scripture_n the_o three_o that_o it_o be_v the_o church_n and_o her_o pastor_n assemble_v which_o shall_v determine_v controversy_n that_o divide_v the_o faithful_a and_o that_o when_o once_o they_o have_v resolve_v any_o matter_n we_o ought_v to_o submit_v unto_o their_o decision_n without_o examine_v anew_o that_o which_o they_o have_v resolve_v the_o four_o and_o last_o that_o this_o authority_n be_v so_o necessary_a that_o after_o have_v deny_v it_o we_o have_v be_v force_v to_o establish_v it_o among_o we_o by_o our_o discipline_n by_o the_o act_n of_o our_o synod_n and_o by_o our_o practice_n in_o thing_n pertain_v to_o faith_n itself_o as_o to_o the_o first_o we_o agree_v with_o the_o bishop_n of_o condom_n that_o the_o christian_a church_n be_v the_o guardian_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o that_o as_o she_o have_v receive_v the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n from_o the_o jewish_a church_n so_o it_o be_v from_o the_o chirstian_a church_n that_o the_o faithful_a receive_v all_o the_o scripture_n as_o well_o of_o the_o old_a as_o of_o the_o new_a testament_n we_o even_o acknowledge_v that_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n be_v a_o lawful_a reason_n which_o at_o first_o make_v we_o look_v upon_o the_o scripture_n as_o a_o revelation_n from_o heaven_n but_o we_o do_v deny_v not_o only_o that_o it_o be_v mere_o by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n but_o that_o it_o be_v principal_o by_o her_o authority_n that_o we_o receive_v the_o scripture_n as_o the_o
