it_o evident_o follow_v that_o they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v certain_a that_o their_o church_n be_v infallible_a that_o they_o neither_o be_v nor_o can_v be_v certain_a that_o their_o church_n

that_o the_o roman_a catholic_n neither_o have_v nor_o can_v have_v any_o certainty_n of_o their_o religion_n that_o this_o may_v appear_v consider_v 1._o that_o our_o bless_a saviour_n ordain_v his_o

he_o appear_v several_a time_n to_o they_o that_o they_o may_v 20.27_o see_v and_o touch_v and_o handle_v 16.14_o he_o blame_v they_o for_o not_o believe_v those_o who_o have_v see_v he_o after_o

catholic_n deny_v this_o certainty_n of_o our_o sense_n and_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o bread_n in_o the_o eucharist_n after_o consecration_n be_v not_o bread_n but_o the_o very_a glorified_a body_n of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n though_o all_o our_o sense_n assure_v we_o that_o it_o be_v bread_n still_o and_o tell_v we_o that_o we_o must_v not_o trust_v our_o sense_n but_o believe_v it_o to_o be_v his_o body_n well_o ask_v they_o how_o they_o know_v it_o be_v his_o body_n they_o say_v by_o faith_n but_o how_o come_v they_o by_o that_o faith_n they_o say_v as_o the_o text_n say_v by_o 10.17_o hear_v but_o then_o 1._o sense_n they_o say_v be_v no_o certain_a assurer_n of_o what_o we_o have_v by_o it_o 2._o if_o all_o my_o five_o sense_n may_v be_v deceive_v in_o judge_v the_o wafer_n to_o

the_o sense_n according_a to_o their_o principle_n be_v to_o be_v trust_v in_o matter_n of_o faith_n because_o they_o may_v deceive_v we_o it_o manifest_o follow_v that_o they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o infallibility_n that_o they_o neither_o have_v nor_o can_v have_v any_o so_o much_o as_o moral_a certainty_n of_o any_o thing_n they_o believe_v but_o if_o not_o too_o much_o enough_o of_o this_o for_o indeed_o their_o pretence_n to_o infallibility_n be_v so_o weak_a that_o they_o deserve_v no_o confutation_n i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o second_o thing_n which_o you_o desire_v i_o to_o do_v that_o be_v to_o give_v some_o reason_n to_o justify_v our_o separation_n from_o rome_n that_o it_o may_v appear_v that_o we_o be_v not_o what_o they_o common_o miscall_v we_o schismatic_n and_o here_o it_o be_v to_o be_v consider_v 1._o that_o schism_n to_o pass_v by_o all_o other_o signification_n of_o the_o word_n be_v a_o criminal_a or_o sinful_a violation_n or_o a_o breach_n of_o ecclesiastical_a or_o church-union_n which_o union_n be_v two_o fold_n 1._o internal_a consist_v in_o a_o union_n of_o judgement_n and_o that_o mutual_a love_n and_o charity_n which_o christian_n ought_v to_o have_v mutual_o one_o to_o another_o 2._o external_n consist_v in_o a_o outward_a profession_n of_o the_o same_o faith_n communion_n in_o the_o same_o liturgy_n and_o sacred_a office_n and_o sacrament_n 2._o schism_n as_o now_o we_o speak_v of_o it_o do_v not_o consist_v in_o a_o violation_n or_o breach_n of_o that_o internal_a union_n of_o judgement_n and_o love_n though_o this_o may_v and_o be_v call_v schism_n note_n in_o scripture_n and_o be_v a_o sin_n for_o such_o internal_a
because_o it_o be_v against_o the_o express_a institution_n and_o command_v of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n who_o say_v 26.27_o drink_v you_o all_o of_o this_o and_o s._n mark_v particular_o observe_v that_o they_o do_v 14.23_o all_o drink_n of_o it_o so_o that_o they_o may_v though_o with_o no_o just_a reason_n yet_o with_o more_o pretence_n have_v take_v away_o the_o bread_n for_o it_o be_v never_o say_v eat_v you_o all_o of_o this_o nor_o express_v that_o they_o do_v all_o eat_v of_o it_o and_o the_o decree_n of_o the_o council_n of_o 1415._o constance_n the_o first_o council_n that_o take_v away_o the_o cup_n from_o the_o laity_n in_o the_o year_n 1415._o be_v most_o intolerable_a for_o they_o command_v upon_o pain_n of_o excommunication_n that_o none_o shall_v communicate_v the_o laity_n in_o both_o kind_n in_o express_a contradiction_n to_o our_o bless_a saviour_n command_n this._n non_fw-la obstante_fw-la institutione_n christi_fw-la they_o say_v indeed_o that_o the_o whole_a ibid._n body_n and_o blood_n of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n be_v true_o contain_v as_o well_o under_o the_o species_n of_o bread_n as_o the_o species_n of_o wine_n but_o admit_v this_o which_o be_v a_o great_a error_n that_o the_o whole_a body_n and_o blood_n be_v real_o and_o true_o in_o the_o bread_n so_o that_o the_o laity_n in_o their_o wafer_n receive_v both_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n then_o 1._o why_o do_v our_o bless_a saviour_n institute_v it_o in_o both_o kind_n if_o the_o apostle_n receive_v his_o body_n and_o blood_n in_o the_o bread_n why_o do_v he_o give_v the_o

of_o constance_n say_v yet_o by_o their_o own_o receive_a principle_n the_o blood_n be_v not_o peccatorum_fw-la consecrate_a in_o the_o wafer_n nor_o his_o body_n in_o the_o cup_n their_o form_n of_o consecrate_v the_o bread_n in_o the_o wafer_n be_v different_a from_o the_o form_n of_o consecrate_v the_o blood_n in_o the_o cup_n and_o then_o admit_v that_o the_o blood_n be_v in_o the_o wafer_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o consecrate_a in_o the_o wafer_n and_o therefore_o be_v not_o sacramental_a blood_n or_o any_o part_n of_o the_o sacrament_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o wafer_n and_o therefore_o the_o layman_n who_o receive_v only_o the_o bread_n or_o wafer_n do_v not_o receive_v the_o whole_a but_o only_o one_o part_n of_o the_o sacrament_n and_o so_o contrary_a to_o our_o bless_a saviour_n command_n be_v deprive_v of_o the_o blood_n the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o sacrament_n 4._o but_o however_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a and_o evident_a that_o they_o do_v not_o drink_v the_o blood_n

impartial_a judge_n will_v appear_v that_o the_o take_v away_o the_o cup_n from_o the_o laity_n be_v a_o kind_n of_o sacrilege_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n as_o be_v against_o the_o institution_n and_o express_v command_n of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n nor_o be_v this_o all_o for_o it_o be_v as_o much_o contrary_n to_o the_o practice_n 1._o of_o the_o apostle_n and_o 2._o of_o the_o christian_a
