which_o need_v reformation_n and_o although_o it_o be_v plain_o affirm_v that_o judah_n keep_v not_o the_o command_n of_o the_o lord_n their_o god_n 17.19_o but_o walk_v in_o the_o statute_n of_o

answer_v to_o this_o as_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v to_o the_o other_o but_o we_o can_v be_v judah_n because_o we_o leave_v the_o catholic_n jerusalem_n that_o be_v rome_n the_o city_n of_o

doctrine_n be_v mean_v the_o adhere_n to_o that_o doctrine_n which_o god_n have_v reveal_v as_o necessary_a in_o his_o word_n but_o by_o the_o definition_n of_o the_o teach_a church_n you_o

of_o difference_n between_o teach_v what_o be_v necessary_a to_o salvation_n and_o make_v any_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n which_o be_v before_o mere_o because_o it_o be_v teach_v by_o
