as_o it_o be_v pretend_v by_o our_o adversary_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n that_o the_o religion_n of_o the_o say_a church_n shall_v be_v false_a and_o that_o they_o be_v deceive_v than_o it_o shall_v follow_v that_o christ_n the_o prophet_n and_o the_o apostle_n shall_v have_v deceive_v they_o because_o they_o defend_v their_o institution_n and_o embrace_v their_o doctrine_n which_o to_o think_v only_o be_v blasphemy_n and_o yet_o more_o to_o say_v it_o the_o reform_a church_n be_v not_o schismatical_a for_o have_v separate_v from_o the_o romish_a church_n as_o false_o they_o be_v accuse_v thereof_o by_o the_o say_a roman_a church_n 1._o have_v sufficient_o show_v that_o the_o true_o reform_a church_n be_v not_o heretical_a we_o must_v pass_v further_o and_o show_v also_o that_o they_o be_v not_o schismatical_a because_o they_o have_v separate_v themselves_o from_o the_o roman_a church_n 2._o for_o that_o cause_n they_o be_v not_o schismatic_a because_o they_o have_v have_v just_a cause_n of_o their_o separation_n which_o we_o demonstrate_v in_o this_o manner_n 3._o for_o not_o to_o be_v schismatic_a in_o make_v separation_n from_o the_o communion_n of_o a_o church_n that_o church_n must_v be_v corrupt_v and_o impure_a and_o this_o corruption_n and_o impurity_n must_v be_v in_o the_o doctrine_n and_o not_o simple_o in_o the_o manner_n and_o the_o say_a separation_n must_v be_v for_o a_o doctrine_n contrary_n to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o over_o throw_v the_o ground_n of_o salvation_n and_o annihilate_v the_o faith_n and_o beside_o which_o erroneous_a doctrine_n be_v public_o authorize_v and_o maintain_v by_o arm_n and_o the_o fire_n 4._o when_o that_o do_v meet_v and_o happen_v in_o a_o church_n and_o that_o there_o be_v other_o church_n that_o god_n have_v deliver_v and_o free_v from_o error_n than_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n to_o withdraw_v and_o separate_v from_o such_o a_o corrupt_a and_o defile_v church_n for_o not_o to_o be_v partaker_n of_o her_o sin_n and_o not_o to_o receive_v the_o plague_n of_o which_o she_o be_v threaten_v of_o god_n rev._n 18.4_o 5._o and_o yet_o before_o that_o all_o endeavour_n must_v be_v do_v to_o procure_v remedy_n to_o the_o evil_a after_o the_o example_n of_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n who_o before_o they_o do_v retire_v themselves_o from_o babylon_n do_v carry_v their_o hand_n to_o her_o wound_n to_o cure_v they_o but_o see_v that_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a they_o resolve_v to_o forsake_v she_o to_o go_v in_o jerusalem_n there_o to_o serve_v god_n according_a to_o his_o word_n jerem._n 51.9_o 10._o these_o be_v their_o word_n we_o will_v have_v heal_v babylon_n but_o she_o be_v not_o heal_v forsake_v she_o and_o let_v we_o go_v every_o one_o into_o his_o own_o country_n so_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o separate_v themselves_o from_o the_o jew_n to_o turn_v towards_o the_o gentile_n but_o after_o that_o they_o have_v reject_v their_o word_n and_o make_v themselves_o unworthy_a thereof_o 6._o it_o have_v be_v for_o that_o and_o after_o the_o same_o proceed_n that_o our_o father_n by_o thousand_o do_v separate_v themselves_o from_o the_o roman_a church_n 7._o for_o which_o retreat_n and_o separation_n we_o be_v wrongful_o accuse_v of_o schism_n for_o it_o be_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n which_o be_v schismatic_a and_o not_o our_o church_n because_o she_o have_v give_v the_o cause_n and_o the_o necessity_n to_o our_o separation_n now_o it_o be_v the_o cause_n and_o not_o the_o separation_n which_o make_v the_o schism_n as_o the_o canonist_n do_v teach_v 8._o so_o the_o apostle_n be_v not_o schismatic_n in_o separate_a themselves_o from_o the_o pharise_n but_o it_o be_v the_o pharise_n that_o be_v such_o 9_o the_o roman_a church_n have_v give_v cause_n to_o our_o separation_n 1._o by_o her_o false_a and_o erroneous_a doctrine_n 2._o by_o the_o domination_n of_o antichrist_n and_o 3._o by_o the_o strange_a cruelty_n which_o she_o do_v exercise_n against_o we_o when_o we_o do_v endeavour_v to_o repurge_v the_o temple_n from_o the_o corruption_n which_o the_o devil_n have_v sow_v therein_o during_o the_o darkness_n of_o ignorance_n as_o ancient_o the_o samaritan_n do_v pollute_v the_o temple_n of_o jerusalem_n in_o shed_v therein_o dead-men_n bone_n during_o the_o darkness_n of_o the_o night_n 10._o have_v be_v so_o deal_v with_o who_o can_v lawful_o revoke_v in_o doubt_n that_o our_o separation_n have_v not_o only_o be_v most_o necessary_a but_o also_o most_o just_a 11._o the_o reform_a church_n for_o the_o abovesaid_a reason_n separate_v themselves_o from_o the_o roman_a church_n do_v not_o thereby_o separate_v themselves_o from_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n rather_o they_o be_v enter_v in_o it_o such_o a_o separation_n have_v not_o be_v a_o forsake_v of_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n but_o a_o go_v forth_o from_o babylon_n a_o escape_n from_o sodom_n a_o quit_v of_o a_o
