A26947	A key for Catholicks, to open the jugling of the Jesuits, and satisfie all that are but truly willing to understand, whether the cause of the Roman or reformed churches be of God ... containing some arguments by which the meanest may see the vanity of popery, and 40 detections of their fraud, with directions, and materials sufficient for the confutation of their voluminous deceits ... : the second part sheweth (especially against the French and Grotians) that the Catholick Church is not united in any meerly humane head, either Pope or council / by Richard Baxter, a Catholick Christian and Pastor of a church ...

you_o call_v fides_fw-la informis_fw-la so_o we_o still_o confess_v that_o the_o wicked_a may_v believe_v but_o as_o belief_n signify_v our_o receive_v of_o christ_n and_o come_v to_o he_o and_o be_v

that_o have_v the_o promise_n of_o pardon_n of_o sin_n of_o adoption_n and_o of_o glory_n so_o we_o say_v that_o the_o wicked_a have_v but_o a_o show_n or_o shadow_n of_o it_o and_o this_o be_v the_o

that_o they_o believe_v such_o as_o you_o call_v fides_fw-la informis_fw-la your_o accusation_n therefore_o be_v false_a the_o seman_n aquavitae_fw-la and_o faith_n that_o calvin_n speak_v of_o in_o

call_v charitate_fw-la formata_fw-la or_o justify_v or_o save_v faith_n only_o by_o a_o extrinsical_a denomination_n from_o a_o concomitant_a and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n in_o the_o faith_n itself_o between_o that_o of_o the_o unjustified_a and_o of_o the_o justify_v you_o be_v mistake_v against_o all_o reason_n your_o own_o philosopher_n frequent_o maintain_v that_o the_o will_v which_o be_v the_o seat_n of_o charity_n follow_v the_o practical_a dictate_v of_o the_o intellect_n which_o be_v the_o seat_n of_o assent_n and_o therefore_o according_a to_o those_o philosopher_n a_o practical_a belief_n must_v needs_o be_v accompany_v with_o charity_n and_o those_o that_o deny_v this_o do_v yet_o maintain_v that_o a_o powerful_a clear_a assent_n of_o the_o intellect_n will_v infallible_o procure_v the_o determination_n of_o the_o will_n though_o every_o assent_n will_v not_o and_o though_o it_o do_v it_o not_o necessary_o so_o that_o on_o that_o account_n and_o in_o common_a reason_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o intrinsic_a difference_n between_o that_o assent_n which_o prevail_v with_o the_o will_v to_o determine_v itself_o and_o that_o which_o can_v so_o
