reformation_n other_o note_n i_o observe_v be_v not_o proper_o note_n of_o the_o true_a church_n any_o otherwise_o than_o as_o they_o be_v testimony_n to_o the_o truth_n of_o common_a christianity_n such_o as_o his_o 9th_o the_o efficacy_n of_o doctrine_n the_o 10_o the_o holiness_n of_o the_o life_n of_o the_o first_o author_n and_o father_n of_o our_o religion_n as_o for_o the_o efficacy_n of_o doctrine_n he_o say_v that_o shall_v bear_v testimony_n to_o the_o church_n also_o if_o it_o be_v true_a that_o more_o be_v convert_v to_o the_o catholic_n church_n than_o apostatise_v from_o it_o let_v he_o read_v the_o examination_n of_o the_o 9th_o note_n for_o this_o but_o if_o it_o be_v true_a also_o that_o the_o roman_a catholic_n do_v convert_v more_o to_o the_o christian_a faith_n than_o any_o other_o sort_n of_o christian_n as_o the_o spaniard_n convert_v the_o poor_a indian_n this_o follow_v undeniable_o that_o they_o believe_v they_o be_v more_o bind_v to_o spread_v the_o christian_a religion_n than_o any_o other_o and_o what_o if_o they_o do_v believe_v so_o be_v not_o other_o as_o much_o bind_v as_o they_o and_o what_o follow_v from_o hence_o that_o they_o be_v the_o only_a true_a church_n because_o they_o be_v more_o zealous_a in_o propagate_a christianity_n do_v this_o relate_v to_o the_o efficacy_n of_o doctrine_n or_o to_o the_o zeal_n of_o the_o preacher_n but_o he_o say_v the_o pharisee_n compass_v sea_n and_o land_n to_o make_v a_o proselyte_n prove_v they_o to_o be_v the_o best_a and_o most_o zealous_a of_o all_o the_o jewish_a party_n though_o they_o make_v they_o ten_o time_n more_o the_o child_n of_o hell_n than_o they_o be_v before_o i_o think_v none_o but_o our_o author_n will_v have_v have_v so_o little_a wit_n as_o to_o have_v justify_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n by_o the_o zeal_n of_o the_o pharisee_n for_o though_o as_o he_o say_v our_o saviour_n woe_n against_o the_o pharisee_n be_v not_o precise_o intend_v against_o their_o zeal_n yet_o this_o prove_v that_o the_o great_a corrupter_n of_o the_o faith_n may_v be_v the_o most_o zealous_a to_o propagate_v their_o error_n and_o therefore_o such_o a_o zeal_n do_v not_o prove_v they_o to_o be_v the_o best_a man_n nor_o the_o true_a church_n thus_o i_o say_v the_o 11_o note_n the_o glory_n of_o miracle_n and_o the_o 12_o the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n be_v testimony_n to_o the_o religion_n not_o primary_o to_o the_o church_n to_o which_o he_o answer_v let_v no_o man_n be_v so_o besot_v as_o to_o say_v that_o all_o miracle_n of_o a_o late_a date_n be_v delusion_n fear_v not_o sir_n no_o miracle_n neither_o late_a nor_o early_a be_v delusion_n but_o some_o delusion_n be_v call_v miracle_n witness_v the_o miracle_n that_o poor_a jetzer_n feel_v but_o the_o question_n be_v whether_o true_a miracle_n prove_v that_o particular_a church_n in_o which_o they_o be_v do_v the_o only_a true_a church_n or_o only_o give_v testimony_n to_o the_o religion_n in_o confirmation_n of_o which_o they_o be_v wrought_v the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n also_o he_o say_v belong_v to_o the_o church_n unless_o we_o find_v that_o all_o the_o true_a church_n in_o the_o circle_n pretend_v to_o it_o all_o that_o pretend_v to_o a_o religion_n reveal_v by_o prophecy_n pretend_v to_o the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n but_o all_o do_v not_o pretend_v in_o this_o age_n to_o have_v the_o gift_n of_o prophecy_n though_o they_o may_v as_o just_o pretend_v to_o it_o as_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n see_v the_o answer_n to_o the_o 12_o note_n i_o add_v that_o the_o 13_o 14_o 15_o note_n i_o doubt_v will_v prove_v no_o note_n at_o all_o because_o they_o be_v not_o always_o true_a and_o at_o best_a uncertain_a the_o 13_o be_v the_o confession_n of_o adversary_n which_o he_o say_v will_v carry_v a_o cause_n in_o our_o temporal_a court_n and_o good_a reason_n too_o because_o they_o be_v suppose_v to_o speak_v nothing_o but_o what_o they_o know_v and_o what_o the_o

i_o say_v be_v not_o note_n of_o a_o church_n but_o god_n promise_v make_v to_o his_o church_n and_o here_o he_o triumph_v mighty_o be_v there_o such_o opposition_n then_o between_o note_n and_o

there_o be_v some_o promise_n which_o be_v not_o note_n of_o the_o church_n i_o be_o safe_a for_o i_o do_v not_o say_v that_o no_o promise_n can_v be_v note_n but_o that_o these_o be_v not_o note_n but_o promise_v and_o give_v my_o reason_n for_o it_o why_o these_o particular_a promise_n can_v not_o be_v note_n as_o for_o the_o three_o a_o long_a duration_n that_o it_o shall_v never_o fail_v i_o say_v this_o can_v never_o be_v a_o note_n till_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n a_o fine_a time_n he_o say_v to_o choose_v our_o religion_n in_o the_o mean_a while_n but_o thanks_o be_v to_o god_n we_o

if_o this_o promise_n be_v not_o yet_o accomplish_v it_o can_v be_v a_o note_n of_o the_o church_n but_o the_o reader_n may_v see_v all_o this_o fair_o state_v in_o the_o examination_n of_o these_o
