to_o wit_n that_o the_o church_n ought_v to_o depend_v and_o hang_v on_o christ_n and_o his_o word_n and_o to_o have_v her_o authority_n from_o the_o same_o word_n and_o not_o on_o the_o other_o

romishe_a catholic_n who_o speak_v of_o the_o church_n after_o this_o manner_n give_v it_o authority_n over_o and_o above_o the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o make_v man_n to_o believe_v that_o

as_o a_o article_n of_o our_o belief_n and_o behold_v their_o reason_n for_o this_o the_o first_o reason_n the_o church_n by_o her_o judgement_n have_v bring_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o holy_a

have_v publish_v &_o bring_v into_o the_o world_n for_o who_o be_v it_o that_o in_o the_o beginning_n have_v assure_v we_o that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o the_o church_n alone_o and_o who_o be_v it_o that_o even_o to_o this_o day_n can_v certify_v and_o assure_v we_o that_o the_o same_o word_n of_o god_n be_v come_v safe_a sound_a and_o whole_a even_o unto_o our_o age_n but_o only_o the_o same_o church_n wherefore_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o authority_n and_o certainty_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n depend_v upon_o the_o authority_n and_o judgement_n of_o the_o church_n i_o answer_v two_o thing_n or_o two_o manner_n of_o way_n first_o that_o this_o be_v a_o most_o wicked_a opinion_n to_o say_v that_o without_o the_o church_n the_o word_n of_o

the_o church_n receive_v it_o and_o publish_v it_o but_o because_o that_o god_n have_v give_v it_o and_o make_v the_o same_o manifest_a unto_o us._n beside_o be_v this_o a_o small_a matter_n that_o we_o have_v the_o testimony_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n dwell_v in_o our_o heart_n it_o be_v say_v that_o it_o be_v his_o peculiar_a office_n to_o guide_v and_o lead_v we_o into_o all_o truth_n 2.27_o john_n 16.13_o 1._o joh._n 2.27_o and_o to_o teach_v we_o all_o thing_n whereupon_o it_o follow_v that_o he_o teach_v we_o this_o truth_n that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v of_o god_n and_o from_o he_o it_o be_v say_v moreover_o that_o we_o have_v receive_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n 2.12_o 1._o cor._n 2.12_o that_o we_o may_v know_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v give_v to_o we_o of_o god_n

spirit_n wherefore_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o holy_a spirit_n teach_v we_o and_o make_v we_o to_o discern_v between_o these_o book_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o receive_v without_o gainsay_v and_o the_o other_o which_o we_o ought_v to_o reject_v and_o refuse_v some_o perhaps_o will_v say_v that_o this_o article_n or_o point_n be_v dangerous_a because_o that_o heretic_n oftentimes_o brag_v that_o they_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n which_o they_o have_v not_o indeed_o and_o we_o know_v how_o they_o have_v always_o endeavour_v to_o make_v their_o doctrine_n of_o authority_n and_o credit_n through_o their_o inward_a revelation_n which_o they_o have_v imagine_v to_o proceed_v from_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o we_o can_v easy_o answer_v this_o to_o wit_n that_o in_o this_o matter_n we_o can_v easy_o avoid_v all_o danger_n if_o we_o use_v and_o follow_v the_o remedy_n which_o s._n john_n do_v furnish_v we_o withal_o when_o he_o say_v that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o

this_o trial_n and_o examination_n even_o the_o word_n of_o god_n as_o we_o see_v that_o thereby_o the_o man_n of_o berea_n 17.11_o act._n 17.11_o do_v prove_v s._n paul_n his_o spirit_n and_o

which_o bring_v any_o thing_n of_o their_o own_o do_v false_o pretend_v the_o same_o as_o christ_n witness_v that_o he_o speak_v not_o of_o himself_o because_o that_o his_o doctrine_n

such_o or_o such_o that_o be_v either_o true_a or_o false_a the_o second_o reason_n be_v the_o church_n be_v more_o ancient_a than_o the_o scripture_n for_o in_o the_o time_n of_o adam_n abel_n seth_n
