syllogism_n against_o the_o visibilitie_n of_o their_o church_n that_o church_n want_v perpetual_a visibilitie_n which_o can_v produce_v some_o visible_a professor_n of_o their_o doctrine_n in_o all_o

in_o all_o point_n &_o age_n since_o the_o time_n of_o the_o apostle_n to_o this_o present_a therefore_o the_o church_n of_o england_n want_v perpetual_a visibilitie_n the_o mayor_n be_v not_o deny_v by_o our_o adversary_n the_o minor_a have_v all_o the_o difficulty_n &_o that_o i_o prove_v and_o inprimis_fw-la that_o the_o defender_n of_o the_o english_a faith_n can_v produce_v no_o scripture_n for_o this_o point_n be_v most_o certain_a and_o evident_a for_o that_o this_o be_v only_o a_o matter_n of_o fact_n which_o succeed_v since_o the_o scripture_n be_v publish_v by_o occasion_n of_o which_o the_o reader_n may_v note_v that_o those_o professor_n of_o the_o english_a religion_n who_o in_o this_o manner_n defend_v the_o visibilitie_n of_o their_o church_n do_v not_o proceed_v consequenter_fw-la to_o that_o other_o negative_a principle_n of_o they_o to_o wit_n that_o nothing_o be_v to_o be_v believe_v by_o faith_n but_o which_o be_v either_o express_o or_o by_o necessary_a illation_n contain_v in_o the_o scripture_n which_o general_a rule_n of_o they_o in_o this_o case_n be_v manifest_o defective_a for_o that_o in_o it_o neither_o scripture_n nor_o deduction_n or_o consequence_n of_o scripture_n can_n seruo_fw-la their_o turn_n in_o this_o particular_a and_o if_o they_o reply_v that_o they_o can_v prove_v their_o visibilitie_n a_o priori_fw-la by_o scripture_n by_o those_o place_n which_o teach_v perpetual_o visibilitie_n in_o the_o church_n than_o i_o say_v that_o this_o be_v not_o the_o matter_n now_o in_o question_n but_o a_o subtlety_n to_o delude_v the_o reader_n for_o the_o controversy_n be_v whether_o they_o can_v prove_v their_o visibilitie_n a_o posteriori_fw-la that_o be_v whether_o they_o can_v yealde_v we_o any_o authentical_a proof_n or_o testimony_n whenby_o it_o may_v certain_o appear_v that_o the_o religion_n now_o profess_v in_o england_n have_v be_v in_o deed_n perpetual_o visible_a in_o in_o all_o age_n as_o the_o scripture_n &_o father_n above_o allege_v affirm_v the_o true_a church_n ought_v to_o be_v otherwise_o they_o do_v only_o suppose_v their_o church_n be_v the_o same_o which_o be_v describe_v in_o the_o scripture_n but_o prove_v it_o not_o neither_o do_v we_o ask_v they_o to_o she_o we_o we_o that_o such_o a_o church_n in_o general_a there_o be_v in_o the_o world_n as_o the_o scripture_n do_v mention_v but_o we_o urge_v they_o to_o demonstrate_v that_o their_o church_n in_o particular_a have_v the_o property_n or_o attribute_n of_o perpetual_a visibilitie_n as_o the_o scripture_n require_v to_o be_v find_v in_o the_o only_a individual_a true_a church_n of_o christ_n &_o till_o they_o can_v perform_v this_o they_o neither_o speak_v according_a to_o the_o sense_n of_o scripture_n nor_o satisfy_v we_o in_o our_o demand_n wherefore_o i_o prove_v the_o minor_a proposition_n of_o of_o the_o argument_n above_o frame_v because_o no_o authentical_a history_n can_v beproduced_a in_o which_o it_o be_v relate_v that_o this_o religion_n of_o england_n now_o common_o there_o profess_v believe_v &_o maintain_v that_o there_o be_v but_o 22._o book_n of_o canonical_a scripture_n only_o that_o they_o be_v to_o be_v expound_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o every_o private_a person_n that_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n only_o that_o there_o be_v only_o two_o sacrament_n institute_v by_o

have_v the_o true_a canon_n of_o scripture_n because_o they_o have_v the_o same_o book_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n which_o the_o jew_n by_o infallible_a authority_n hold_v for_o canonical_a and_o the_o same_o book_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n which_o the_o roman_a church_n hold_v for_o canonical_a then_o i_o demand_n of_o they_o first_o how_o they_o come_v to_o know_v that_o their_o canon_n be_v just_a the_o same_o with_o that_o of_o the_o jew_n neither_o more_o nor_o less_o &_o how_o they_o be_v assure_v that_o the_o ancient_a jew_n who_o only_o &_o not_o the_o modern_a jew_n be_v the_o true_a people_n of_o god_n &_o by_o he_o guide_v &_o rule_v by_o what_o infallible_a mean_n i_o say_v do_v they_o know_v that_o those_o jew_n exclude_v those_o same_o book_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n out_o of_o their_o canon_n as_o apochripha_n which_o the_o roman_a church_n hold_v for_o canonical_a to_o wit_n judith_n toby_n sapience_n ecclesiasticus_fw-la machaby_n and_o i_o urge_v
