A43640	The third part of Naked truth, or, Some serious considerations, that are of high concern to the ruling clergy of England, Scotland, or any other Protestant nation and also a discovery of the excellency of the Protestant religion as it stands in opposition to papistical delusions, being a representation of what is the true glory of Protestants, and what are the base, contemptible and ridiculous principles, on which those that are called Roman Catholicks do build, as upon the sand being very necessary for all Protestant families in this present juncture of time.; Naked truth.

to_o the_o universal_a church_n and_o to_o the_o scripture_n as_o it_o be_v the_o sense_n of_o neither_o of_o they_o proper_o and_o entire_o and_o yet_o be_v the_o sense_n of_o both_o of_o they_o at_o

the_o say_a sense_n as_o it_o be_v divine_a and_o consequent_o though_o without_o the_o say_a scripture_n it_o have_v be_v whole_o impossible_a that_o the_o say_a church_n shall_v either_o have_v

for_o the_o church_n which_o be_v a_o very_a rare_a and_o unusual_a sort_n of_o production_n and_o therefore_o it_o will_v follow_v also_o that_o if_o we_o regard_v the_o truth_n certainty_n and_o infallibility_n of_o this_o catholic_n sense_n it_o be_v whole_o and_o entire_o from_o the_o church_n because_o neither_o the_o authority_n proper_o of_o it_o nor_o its_o divinity_n do_v consist_v

scripture_n because_o it_o may_v be_v divine_a though_o it_o have_v neither_o certainty_n nor_o infallibility_n in_o it_o at_o least_o as_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n tell_v we_o and_o consequent_o the_o say_a catholic_n sense_n consider_v as_o it_o be_v strict_o in_o the_o scripture_n have_v indeed_o both_o authority_n absolute_o in_o it_o and_o divinity_n but_o it_o neither_o have_v truth_n

for_o all_o this_o any_o thing_n of_o divinity_n or_o authority_n for_o this_o it_o must_v borrow_v from_o the_o name_n of_o the_o scripture_n so_o that_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o say_a

sense_n of_o both_o of_o they_o entire_o and_o the_o reason_n for_o this_o be_v also_o plain_a viz._n because_o according_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n the_o divinity_n of_o the_o catholic_n sense_n be_v one_o thing_n its_o truth_n and_o infallibility_n be_v quite_o another_o for_o though_o the_o church_n can_v give_v to_o the_o catholic_n sense_n be_v truth_n and_o

consequent_o its_o authority_n entire_o yet_o it_o can_v of_o itself_o give_v it_o any_o thing_n of_o truth_n or_o any_o thing_n of_o infallibility_n but_o this_o it_o must_v have_v from_o the_o church_n so_o mystical_o be_v this_o catholic_n sense_n part_v and_o divide_v between_o both_o by_o which_o partition_n of_o the_o catholic_n sense_n which_o be_v strange_a we_o come_v to_o know_v another_o thing_n also_o which_o be_v as_o strange_a and_o which_o otherwise_o we_o shall_v never_o have_v be_v able_a to_o have_v find_v out_o viz._n that_o though_o the_o end_n of_o give_v the_o scripture_n be_v unquestionable_o for_o the_o enlighten_v rule_v and_o govern_v the_o church_n yet_o the_o end_n of_o set_v up_o the_o church_n be_v equal_o also_o for_o the_o enlighten_v rule_v and_o

as_o all_o the_o rest_n second_o the_o divinity_n of_o the_o catholic_n sense_n with_o the_o necessity_n absolute_o of_o it_o will_v appear_v also_o yet_o the_o more_o clear_o if_o we_o shall_v

must_v be_v impossible_a that_o the_o catholic_n sense_n of_o the_o scripture_n shall_v be_v absolute_o true_a holy_a infallible_a and_o free_a from_o all_o error_n because_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o scripture_n become_v thus_o catholic_n holy_a infallible_a and_o true_a only_o as_o it_o be_v the_o sense_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n first_o and_o as_o it_o be_v by_o this_o mean_v derive_v to_o

scripture_n itself_o without_o the_o direction_n and_o assistance_n of_o the_o say_a catholic_n or_o universal_a church_n be_v manifest_o absurd_a both_o because_o the_o scripture_n have_v proper_o of_o itself_o no_o sense_n at_o all_o that_o be_v certain_a and_o because_o it_o be_v the_o immediate_a authority_n of_o the_o church_n only_o upon_o which_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o scripture_n so_o

its_o self_n to_o confer_v a_o divine_a right_n authority_n and_o infallibility_n to_o the_o church_n it_o will_v and_o must_v be_v impossible_a that_o the_o say_a church_n shall_v be_v any_o way_n

of_o these_o two_o than_o be_v the_o more_o ingenious_a but_o which_o be_v yet_o more_o if_o we_o as_o we_o be_v protestant_n can_v but_o grant_v that_o there_o be_v to_o be_v a_o subordination_n of_o

but_o the_o evil_a of_o this_o persecution_n further_o appear_v thus_o for_o if_o we_o as_o protestant_n say_v we_o have_v separate_v from_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n out_o of_o conscience_n first_o because_o she_o impose_v those_o thing_n that_o be_v inscriptural_a upon_o we_o and_o second_o because_o she_o be_v guilty_a of_o blood_n and_o that_o the_o character_n of_o a_o false_a church_n do_v

why_o shall_v it_o be_v less_o cry_v unto_o god_n for_o have_v we_o never_o so_o intent_o study_v how_o we_o may_v have_v put_v the_o great_a stumbling-block_n we_o can_v before_o our_o adversary_n

say_v therefore_o that_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o difficulty_n be_v because_o the_o prince_n have_v the_o character_n or_o repute_v only_o of_o a_o secular_a authority_n have_v not_o that_o

and_o though_o he_o be_v never_o so_o absolute_a or_o supreme_a yet_o he_o be_v deny_v the_o right_n of_o this_o judgement_n as_o to_o the_o matter_n of_o

upon_o the_o conscience_n of_o all_o person_n as_o protestant_n by_o or_o from_o the_o scripture_n be_v yet_o the_o more_o considerable_a because_o whatever_o worship_n service_n or_o religion_n we_o

and_o it_o be_v this_o rule_n alone_o to_o which_o all_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n be_v entire_o make_v and_o all_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n be_v make_v to_o this_o rule_n only_o this_o rule_n

the_o only_a ground_n upon_o which_o we_o can_v as_o christian_n have_v any_o expectation_n of_o salvation_n and_o life_n and_o therefore_o the_o whole_a interest_n and_o concern_v of_o our_o soul_n at_o least_o as_o we_o be_v protestant_n do_v and_o must_v stand_v entire_o upon_o the_o say_a word_n which_o thing_n if_o they_o can_v possible_o any_o way_n be_v deny_v then_o the_o disobey_v of_o all_o such_o law_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o worship_n as_o be_v not_o agreeable_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n or_o which_o at_o least_o appear_v not_o to_o be_v so_o be_v a_o thing_n whole_o

impel_v it_o first_o as_o it_o have_v its_o rise_n from_o that_o most_o forcible_a and_o indeleable_a character_n which_o be_v write_v in_o the_o mind_n of_o all_o man_n which_o be_v that_o see_v god_n be_v he_o ought_v to_o be_v worship_v in_o some_o manner_n or_o another_o of_o necessity_n second_o as_o it_o have_v its_o rise_n from_o that_o character_n which_o have_v equal_a force_n with_o the_o other_o in_o the_o mind_n of_o we_o as_o we_o be_v breed_v protestant_n viz._n that_o god_n be_v no_o other_o way_n to_o be_v worship_v nor_o will_v accept_v of_o any_o other_o worship_n from_o we_o as_o christian_n but_o what_o be_v agreeable_a to_o his_o word_n which_o two_o principle_n see_v by_o virtue_n of_o our_o education_n they_o make_v but_o one_o indeed_o in_o our_o heart_n as_o we_o be_v protestant_n they_o do_v and_o must_v constrain_v we_o assoon_o to_o abandon_v all_o worship_n itself_o unto_o god_n as_o to_o abandon_v that_o worship_n which_o be_v proper_o agreeable_a to_o his_o word_n because_o so_o far_o as_o we_o abandon_v this_o we_o do_v abandon_v all_o worship_n that_o be_v according_a to_o our_o principle_n as_o protestant_n either_o acceptable_a with_o god_n or_o agreeable_a to_o the_o mind_n of_o god_n wherefore_o if_o to_o these_o two_o we_o shall_v add_v the_o three_o ground_n of_o its_o rise_n which_o be_v as_o certain_a also_o as_o either_o of_o the_o other_o viz._n that_o we_o neither_o have_v hope_n in_o god_n nor_o any_o promise_v make_v we_o by_o god_n further_o than_o as_o we_o obey_v he_o in_o his_o word_n or_o further_o than_o as_o we_o worship_v he_o according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o it_o i_o say_v these_o three_o thing_n be_v now_o joint_o consider_v and_o serious_o weigh_v by_o we_o what_o man_n be_v there_o or_o what_o man_n can_v there_o be_v who_o firm_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v any_o such_o thing_n as_o salvation_n and_o life_n who_o will_v not_o run_v any_o hazard_n rather_o than_o forbear_v what_o he_o judge_v to_o be_v the_o worship_n of_o god_n or_o rather_o than_o he_o will_v observe_v such_o a_o worship_n unto_o god_n as_o he_o can_v but_o know_v or_o can_v at_o least_o but_o very_o believe_v to_o be_v contrary_a to_o his_o mind_n and_o contrary_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o his_o word_n if_o it_o be_v evil_a then_o for_o any_o man_n to_o believe_v that_o god_n be_v indispensible_o to_o be_v worship_v after_o some_o manner_n or_o another_o or_o evil_a for_o a_o man_n to_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o rule_n of_o his_o will_n or_o mind_n to_o we_o as_o we_o be_v christian_n but_o his_o word_n and_o therefore_o no_o other_o rule_n wherein_o his_o worship_n be_v contain_v beside_o his_o word_n or_o if_o it_o be_v evil_a to_o expect_v that_o god_n will_v most_o true_o faithful_o and_o full_o perform_v his_o promise_n to_o we_o if_o we_o shall_v serve_v he_o according_a to_o his_o word_n and_o not_o otherwise_o i_o say_v if_o any_o of_o these_o three_o thing_n be_v evil_a than_o it_o may_v be_v evil_a to_o disobey_v any_o law_n relate_v to_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n though_o it_o be_v not_o agreeable_a to_o his_o word_n but_o if_o none_o of_o these_o thing_n be_v evil_a in_o themselves_o they_o can_v never_o make_v any_o man_n evil_a who_o simple_o conform_v to_o they_o i_o say_v not_o simple_o for_o his_o conformity_n how_o strict_o or_o entire_o so_o ever_o it_o be_v and_o therefore_o if_o these_o three_o principle_n be_v of_o such_o a_o nature_n as_o create_v a_o necessity_n of_o our_o compliance_n with_o they_o even_o as_o we_o be_v rational_a person_n we_o must_v either_o then_o remove_v the_o principle_n themselves_o and_o the_o lawfulness_n of_o they_o or_o we_o must_v unavoidable_o suffer_v and_o permit_v their_o efficacy_n as_o

the_o practice_n of_o they_o or_o to_o disallow_v such_o person_n as_o follow_v they_o and_o embrace_v they_o and_o to_o account_v such_o person_n to_o be_v only_a disturber_n or_o to_o be_v man_n

to_o prevaricate_v with_o the_o say_a principle_n and_o to_o make_v but_o a_o mock_n or_o sport_n of_o they_o or_o it_o be_v to_o do_v that_o which_o be_v absolute_o repugnant_a absurd_a and_o
