our_o saviour_n over_o the_o whole_a church_n so_o that_o whatever_o any_o one_o of_o they_o teach_v as_o christian_a faith_n all_o the_o church_n be_v oblige_v to_o believe_v and_o consequent_o have_v he_o err_v in_o any_o thing_n the_o whole_a church_n will_v have_v be_v oblige_v to_o follow_v and_o believe_v that_o error_n whereas_o on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o succeed_a bishop_n general_o speak_v be_v not_o to_o be_v pastor_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n but_o each_o of_o his_o own_o respective_a diocese_n so_o that_o if_o particular_a pastor_n preach_v any_o error_n in_o faith_n the_o whole_a church_n be_v unconcern_v in_o it_o have_v no_o obligation_n to_o believe_v they_o but_o in_o regard_n those_o respective_a pastor_n when_o they_o be_v assemble_v in_o a_o lawful_a representative_a or_o general_a council_n be_v in_o quality_n of_o the_o pastor_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n if_o they_o shall_v err_v in_o such_o a_o body_n the_o whole_a church_n will_v be_v oblige_v to_o err_v with_o they_o which_o be_v against_o the_o promise_n of_o our_o saviour_n hence_o also_o it_o follow_v in_o proportion_n that_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n be_v pastor_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n when_o he_o teach_v any_o thing_n in_o that_o quality_n viz._n as_o pastor_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n and_o intend_v to_o oblige_v the_o whole_a church_n by_o his_o
