further_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v that_o there_o be_v not_o the_o same_o reason_n for_o the_o church_n absolute_a infallibility_n as_o for_o the_o apostle_n and_o scripture_n for_o if_o the_o church_n fall_v into_o a_o error_n it_o may_v be_v reform_v by_o compare_v it_o with_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n in_o scripture_n but_o if_o the_o apostle_n have_v err_v in_o deliver_v the_o doctrine_n of_o christianity_n in_o scripture_n than_o the_o roman_a church_n can_v be_v infallible_a for_o apostle_n prophet_n and_o canonical_a writer_n be_v the_o foundation_n of_o the_o church_n as_o st._n paul_n say_v it_o be_v build_v upon_o the_o foundation_n of_o apostle_n and_o prophet_n and_o now_o to_o conclude_v this_o part_n of_o my_o discourse_n in_o very_a few_o word_n let_v the_o papist_n answer_n if_o they_o can_v but_o these_o five_o word_n all_o scripture_n be_v divine_o inspire_v let_v they_o show_v we_o so_o much_o for_o the_o roman_a church_n and_o show_v we_o if_o they_o can_v where_o it_o be_v write_v in_o scripture_n that_o all_o the_o decree_n of_o the_o popish_a church_n be_v divine_o inspire_v and_o all_o our_o controversy_n will_v be_v at_o a_o end_n but_o i_o believe_v they_o can_v ever_o do_v that_o without_o another_o transubstantiation_n miracle_n of_o word_n the_o papist_n desire_v we_o to_o show_v they_o a_o exact_a catalogue_n of_o our_o fundamental_o to_o which_o we_o answer_v that_o god_n may_v be_v sufficient_o know_v to_o one_o and_o not_o sufficient_o declare_v to_o a_o either_o and_o consequent_o that_o may_v be_v fundamental_a and_o necessary_a to_o one_o which_o be_v not_o to_o another_o which_o variety_n of_o circumstance_n tender_v it_o impossible_a to_o set_v down_o a_o exact_a catalogue_n of_o fundamental_o for_o god_n require_v more_o of_o they_o to_o who_o he_o give_v more_o and_o less_o of_o those_o to_o who_o he_o give_v less_o more_o of_o a_o commander_n of_o a_o kingdom_n than_o a_o poor_a simple_a turn_v spit_v it_o be_v a_o plain_a revelation_n of_o god_n to_o we_o protestant_n that_o the_o sacrament_n the_o eucharist_n shall_v be_v administer_v in_o both_o kind_n 1_o cor._n 11_o c._n 28_o v._n and_o that_o the_o public_a hymn_n and_o prayer_n of_o the_o church_n shall_v be_v in_o such_o a_o language_n as_o be_v most_o for_o edification_n 1_o cor._n 14_o and_z 15_o 16._o yet_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n not_o see_v this_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o vail_n will_v be_v very_o angry_a if_o we_o tell_v they_o it_o will_v prejudice_v their_o suppose_a infallibility_n we_o read_v in_o st._n matthew_n that_o the_o gospel_n be_v to_o be_v preach_v to_o all_o nation_n and_o this_o be_v a_o truth_n reveal_v before_o our_o saviour_n ascension_n yet_o if_o the_o church_n have_v be_v ask_v before_o the_o conversion_n of_o cornelius_n they_o will_v have_v certain_o tell_v you_o it_o have_v not_o be_v necessary_a to_o teach_v all_o nation_n for_o it_o be_v most_o apparent_a out_o of_o the_o 11_o of_o the_o act_n they_o all_o believe_v so_o until_o st._n peter_n be_v better_o inform_v by_o a_o vision_n from_o heaven_n and_o the_o conversion_n of_o cornelius_n and_o then_o they_o turn_v quite_o of_o a_o differ_a belief_n and_o esteem_v it_o necessary_a to_o teach_v all_o nation_n and_o yet_o be_v still_o a_o church_n the_o papist_n be_v please_v to_o say_v the_o protestant_n differ_v in_o fundamental_o which_o indeed_o appear_v to_o we_o very_o irrational_a for_o if_o they_o say_v we_o protestant_n differ_v in_o fundamental_o how_o then_o can_v they_o say_v we_o be_v member_n of_o the_o same_o church_n one_o with_o another_o more_o than_o they_o be_v with_o we_o or_o we_o with_o they_o and_o why_o do_v they_o object_v our_o difference_n more_o with_o one_o another_o than_o with_o themselves_o and_o if_o we_o do_v not_o differ_v in_o fundamental_o why_o do_v they_o upbraid_v we_o with_o fundamental_a difference_n among_o ourselves_o we_o believe_v the_o catholic_n church_n can_v perish_v yet_o we_o believe_v she_o may_v and_o do_v err_v as_o i_o prove_v just_a before_o but_o thus_o much_o we_o protestant_n declare_v in_o general_a that_o we_o esteem_v it_o sufficient_a for_o any_o man_n salvation_n to_o believe_v god_n word_n the_o scripture_n and_o that_o it_o contain_v all_o thing_n necessary_a to_o our_o salvation_n and_o that_o we_o do_v our_o utmost_a endeavour_n to_o find_v believe_v and_o follow_v the_o true_a sense_n of_o it_o and_o be_v we_o be_v sure_a that_o all_o that_o be_v any_o way_n necessary_a be_v there_o believe_v all_o that_o be_v there_o we_o be_v sure_o we_o believe_v all_o that_o be_v necessary_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v but_o reasonable_a to_o say_v that_o any_o private_a person_n who_o true_o believe_v the_o scripture_n and_o hearty_o endeavour_v to_o know_v the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o to_o do_v it_o be_v as_o secure_v nay_o secure_a from_o the_o danger_n of_o err_v in_o fundamental_o than_o the_o roman_a church_n for_o it_o be_v impossible_a any_o man_n so_o qualify_v shall_v fall_v into_o a_o error_n that_o can_v prove_v damnable_a to_o he_o for_o god_n require_v no_o more_o of_o any_o man_n to_o his_o salvation_n but_o only_o his_o true_a and_o best_a endeavour_n to_o be_v save_v and_o for_o the_o papist_n sacrament_n of_o confession_n which_o they_o hold_v be_v so_o absolute_a and_o necessary_a and_o so_o much_o upbraid_v we_o for_o the_o want_n of_o it_o we_o answer_v we_o know_v no_o such_o absolute_a necessity_n of_o it_o but_o yet_o we_o hold_v we_o must_v not_o only_o confess_v our_o sin_n but_o forsake_v they_o or_o we_o shall_v not_o find_v mercy_n and_o we_o protesant_n far_o believe_v that_o they_o that_o confess_v their_o sin_n shall_v find_v mercy_n though_o they_o only_o confess_v they_o to_o god_n and_o not_o to_o man_n and_o more_o that_o they_o who_o confess_v they_o both_o to_o god_n and_o man_n and_o do_v not_o in_o time_n forsake_v they_o shall_v not_o find_v mercy_n and_o so_o for_o the_o papist_n sacrament_n of_o repentance_n for_o remission_n of_o sin_n though_o we_o protestant_n know_v no_o such_o yet_o we_o allow_v and_o observe_v the_o same_o duty_n but_o public_a before_o the_o church_n which_o be_v the_o constant_a practice_n of_o the_o primitive_a church_n and_o rhemanus_fw-la himself_o though_o so_o great_a a_o champion_n for_o the_o papist_n write_v that_o the_o confession_n then_o use_v be_v before_o the_o church_n and_o that_o auricular_a confession_n be_v not_o hen_n in_o the_o world_n the_o papist_n will_v tell_v you_o that_o our_o bishop_n have_v not_o the_o true_a power_n of_o ordination_n but_o that_o have_v be_v so_o clear_o answer_v and_o so_o true_o prove_v at_o large_a by_o so_o many_o already_o as_o i_o shall_v not_o need_v here_o so_o much_o as_o to_o name_v it_o only_o let_v i_o in_o a_o word_n remember_v the_o papist_n that_o they_o can_v well_o deny_v but_o that_o the_o donatist_n themselves_o who_o the_o papist_n esteem_v as_o bad_a as_o we_o as_o be_v heretic_n and_o schismatic_n yet_o st._n austin_n and_o optatus_n bishop_n of_o rome_n do_v both_o acknowledge_v that_o they_o have_v the_o same_o baptism_n creed_n and_o sacrament_n and_o that_o these_o donatist_n father_n though_o schismatic_n and_o heretic_n give_v true_a ordination_n or_o else_o some_o of_o these_o be_v not_o then_o esteem_v sacrament_n therefore_o let_v they_o take_v which_o they_o please_v there_o must_v be_v error_n of_o one_o side_n the_o papist_n pretend_v they_o have_v a_o unanswerable_a objection_n against_o protestant_n which_o be_v that_o we_o have_v discord_n in_o matter_n of_o faith_n without_o any_o mean_n of_o agreement_n to_o which_o we_o answer_v that_o the_o scripture_n do_v not_o let_v we_o want_v solid_a mean_n of_o agreement_n in_o matter_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n and_o for_o our_o agreement_n in_o all_o controversy_n of_o religion_n either_o they_o must_v say_v we_o have_v mean_n to_o agree_v about_o they_o or_o we_o have_v not_o if_o they_o say_v we_o have_v why_o do_v they_o before_o deny_v it_o if_o they_o say_v we_o have_v no_o mean_n why_o be_v they_o so_o unjust_a to_o find_v fault_n with_o we_o for_o not_o agree_v when_o they_o themselves_o say_v we_o have_v no_o mean_n to_o agree_v but_o for_o a_o plaster_n to_o this_o soar_n they_o be_v so_o extraordinary_a civil_a as_o to_o tell_v we_o we_o may_v come_v to_o their_o church_n and_o they_o agree_v in_o matter_n of_o faith_n but_o the_o plain_a truth_n of_o it_o be_v that_o they_o define_v all_o matter_n of_o faith_n to_o be_v those_o wherein_o they_o agree_v so_o that_o to_o say_v the_o roman_a church_n do_v agree_v in_o matter_n of_o faith_n be_v but_o to_o say_v they_o agree_v in_o those_o thing_n they_o do_v agree_v in_o and_o sure_o they_o can_v deny_v but_o we_o
