jerem._n 17._o wherefore_o this_o preposition_n ●n_n be_v join_v in_o the._n xij_o article_n of_o our_o faith_n only_o to_o the_o three_o person_n of_o the_o holy_a trinity_n for_o we_o confess_v that_o we_o believe_v in_o god_n the_o father_n in_o his_o only_o beget_v son_n and_o in_o the_o holy_a ghost_n furthermore_o cyprian_n and_o other_o holy_a father_n do_v excellent_o teach_v in_o their_o interpretation_n of_o the_o creed_n that_o we_o must_v believe_v there_o be_v a_o holy_a church_n but_o not_o to_o believe_v in_o the_o church_n and_o therefore_o do_v we_o not_o teach_v any_o

the_o church_n the_o answer_n we_o understand_v thereby_o be_v the_o congregation_n or_o company_n of_o those_o which_o believe_v in_o christ_n for_o the_o church_n in_o the_o german_n tongue_n be_v call_v kirch_n as_o though_o it_o be_v derive_v from_o the_o grecian_n which_o call_n our_o lord_n jesus_n christe_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d that_o be_v to_o say_v lord_n wherefore_o all_o

christian_a church_n and_o this_o interpretation_n of_o the_o name_n of_o the_o church_n we_o saint_n have_v also_o in_o the_o article_n of_o our_o faith_n for_o to_o the_o confession_n of_o the_o

these_o cause_n first_o because_o all_o the_o faithful_a there_o be_v partaker_n of_o all_o the_o gift_n and_o grace_n which_o christ_n have_v purchase_v that_o be_v to_o say_v chief_o the_o

believe_v the_o remission_n of_o sin_n the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n and_o life_n everlasting_a second_o it_o be_v call_v the_o communion_n or_o fellowship_n of_o saint_n saint_n that_o be_v to_o say_v of_o the_o faithful_a for_o as_o appear_v by_o the_o epistle_n of_o s._n paul_n the_o apostle_n and_o other_o bless_a father_n call_v the_o faithful_a or_o christian_n saint_n because_o as_o i_o say_v before_o they_o be_v sanctify_v by_o christ_n in_o his_o blood_n through_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o because_o the_o church_n be_v a_o congregation_n or_o company_n peradventure_o therefore_o it_o be_v call_v in_o our_o mother_n tongue_n kuch_n by_o this_o letter_n l_o and_o not_o as_o some_o other_o german_n do_v sound_v it_o by_o the_o letter_n r._n for_o in_o the_o hebrew_n

of_o the_o patriarch_n prophet_n and_o apostle_n and_o that_o through_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o oftentimes_o god_n speak_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n say_v behold_v i_o be_o always_o with_o you_o

when_o they_o confess_v that_o god_n govern_v his_o church_n by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n forthwith_o the_o popish_a bishop_n conclude_v thereof_o that_o the_o church_n neither_o have_v nor_o can_v

thrust_v upon_o man_n be_v both_o good_a and_o inspire_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o unto_o these_o mate_n we_o answer_v first_o that_o we_o do_v not_o acknowledge_v that_o church_n whereof_o they_o brag_v to_o be_v the_o true_a primative_a apostolic_a church_n as_o hereafter_o we_o shall_v prove_v second_o we_o d●●_n not_o confess_v that_o the_o err_v church_n can_v not_o altogether_o or_o in_o all_o point_n err_v for_o so_o long_o as_o she_o be_v govern_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o only_o harken_v unto_o he_o do_v nothing_o but_o by_o his_o motion_n and_o word_n she_o neither_o do_v nor_o can_v err_v but_o if_o she_o swerve_v at_o any_o time_n from_o the_o government_n of_o the_o same_o spirit_n and_o govern_v after_o her_o own_o lust_n then_o true_o she_o not_o only_o may_v but_o also_o do_v err_v but_o if_o any_o will_v ask_v whether_o the_o church_n may_v swerve_v from_o the_o direction_n of_o god_n spirit_n i_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v evident_a and_o may_v in_o no_o wise_n be_v deny_v that_o the_o church_n of_o god_n here_o upon_o this_o earth_n often_o time_n under_o moses_n the_o judge_n and_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n and_o juda_n have_v err_v yea_o and_o that_o the_o disciple_n of_o chryst_n who_o yet_o nevertheless_o be_v the_o church_n of_o christ_n do_v err_v and_o have_v their_o fall_n for_o who_o be_v ignorant_a what_o happen_v to_o david_n aaron_n peter_n and_o other_o the_o holy_a saint_n and_o disciple_n of_o chryst_n yea_o we_o must_v note_v that_o the_o church_n be_v gather_v not_o of_o angel_n but_o of_o man_n wherefore_o although_o it_o be_v inspire_v and_o govern_v by_o the_o spirit_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o thereby_o turn_v into_o the_o spirit_n for_o it_o keep_v still_o her_o flesh_n and_o the_o infirmity_n thereof_o yea_o even_o unto_o death_n who_o be_v ignorant_a of_o those_o write_n which_o saint_n paul_n have_v general_o utter_v touch_v the_o battle_n between_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o spirit_n and_o that_o not_o in_o the_o ungodly_a and_o unbeléever_v only_o which_o be_v not_o of_o the_o church_n but_o even_o in_o the_o faithful_a also_o and_o member_n of_o the_o church_n and_o this_o battle_n be_v so_o vehement_n and_o sharp_a that_o even_o thereby_o the_o godly_a be_v force_v not_o to_o do_v that_o good_a and_o just_a thing_n which_o they_o know_v but_o to_o do_v that_o which_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o do_v read_v s._n paul_n five_o chapter_n to_o the_o galatian_n &_o also_o the_o seven_o to_o the_o roman_n yet_o nevertheless_o the_o same_o apostle_n call_v the_o galatian_n and_o corinthian_n 1._o the_o true_a church_n of_o christ_n as_o purify_v by_o his_o blood_n and_o govern_v by_o his_o

before_o prove_v that_o the_o true_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o in_o the_o sacrament_n corporal_o it_o follow_v of_o necessity_n that_o the_o same_o can_v not_o be_v offer_v up_o in_o the_o mass_n by_o the_o priest_n but_o yet_o the_o romish_a church_n teach_v that_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v corporal_o and_o substantial_o present_a and_o in_o the_o office_n of_o their_o mass_n offer_v up_o to_o god_n by_o the_o priest_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o quick_a and_o the_o dead_a and_o therefore_o ought_v to_o be_v worship_v but_o the_o form_n of_o

wherefore_o without_o all_o doubt_n the_o apostle_n peter_n james_n and_o mathewe_n do_v never_o celebrate_v the_o mass_n use_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n but_o be_v altogether_o ignorant_a

propitiatory_a for_o the_o reconciliation_n and_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o other_o of_o thank_n give_v in_o which_o we_o exercise_v our_o faith_n serve_v god_n &_o geve_v he_o thanks_n both_o with_o word_n and_o deed_n for_o his_o benefit_n bestow_v upon_o we_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n the_o sacrifice_n propitiatory_a be_v shadow_v and_o figure_v by_o many_o figure_n yet_o be_v there_o but_o one_o thing_n which_o they_o all_o do_v signify_v to_o wit_n the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n offer_v on_o the_o cross_n wherefore_o after_o that_o christ_n come_v into_o the_o world_n and_o remain_v here_o a_o certain_a time_n that_o he_o may_v offer_v his_o body_n and_o blood_n on_o the_o cross_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n he_o ordain_v ●n_z his_o supper_n the_o

from_o hence_o forth_o on●●_n to_o be_v in_o stead_n of_o all_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n which_o be_v figure_n and_o to_o witness_v that_o as_o christ_n by_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v promise_v a_o saviour_n so_o in_o the_o ●ewe_a testament_n he_o be_v come_v and_o have_v perform_v it_o and_o so_o by_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o his_o body_n and_o

do_v the_o old_a testament_n the_o levitical_a priesthood_n and_o all_o the_o other_o sacrifice_n take_v their_o end_n whereunto_o they_o be_v ordain_v therefore_o now_o rest_v but_o the_o one_o only_a and_o everlasting_a sacrifice_n of_o christ_n as_o the_o chief_a holy_a and_o most_o perfect_v and_o such_o be_v the_o property_n of_o this_o sacrifice_n that_o it_o neither_o can_v nor_o yet_o can_v be_v offer_v of_o any_o live_a man_n because_o not_o only_o for_o the_o excellency_n and_o holiness_n thereof_o but_o also_o because_o of_o the_o imperfection_n of_o man_n and_o therefore_o christ_n offer_v up_o himself_o that_o be_v to_o say_v give_v himself_o unto_o death_n and_o so_o become_v the_o one_o and_o everlasting_a bishop_n after_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n as_o

for_o the_o reconciliation_n and_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o because_o christ_n have_v suffer_v for_o we_o die_v be_v bury_v and_o arise_v again_o from_o the_o dead_a and_o ascend_v into_o heaven_n appear_v for_o ever_o even_o unto_o the_o last_o day_n as_o one_o sufficient_a sacrifice_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n for_o the_o full_a and_o perfect_v redemption_n of_o all_o the_o faithful_a
