the_o church_n may_v be_v without_o they_o so_o be_v it_o for_o some_o while_n after_o christ_n ascension_n for_o then_o neither_o be_v the_o christian_a church_n so_o eminent_a as_o that_o of_o the_o

or_o no_o be_v not_o now_o much_o material_a for_o it_o make_v little_a to_o the_o purpose_n &_o we_o have_v sufficient_o prove_v that_o the_o church_n be_v not_o the_o last_o resolution_n of_o

the_o church_n if_o the_o company_n of_o all_o true_a believer_n that_o now_o be_v and_o heretofore_o have_v be_v include_v the_o holy_a apostle_n together_o with_o they_o then_o i_o grant_v it_o for_o these_o be_v so_o lead_v by_o the_o spirit_n into_o all_o truth_n that_o they_o can_v not_o possible_o err_v in_o any_o matter_n of_o faith_n that_o be_v either_o to_o be_v teach_v by_o they_o or_o know_v by_o us._n but_o if_o you_o mean_v the_o present_a church_n in_o every_o age_n successive_o after_o the_o apostle_n as_o here_o saint_n austin_n do_v refer_v his_o friend_n honoratus_n thereunto_o then_o i_o distinguish_v either_o you_o must_v understand_v thereby_o the_o whole_a number_n of_o true_a believer_n who_o for_o the_o present_a life_n in_o the_o world_n or_o the_o society_n and_o fellowship_n of_o those_o that_o in_o their_o time_n rule_n and_o sway_v most_o in_o the_o church_n if_o you_o take_v it_o in_o the_o former_a sense_n i_o grant_v what_o you_o say_v to_o be_v true_a in_o fundamental_a point_n but_o not_o in_o such_o as_o be_v not_o absolute_o necessary_a nor_o prejudice_n the_o foundation_n of_o faith_n if_o in_o the_o latter_a than_o i_o affirm_v that_o the_o church_n may_v both_o deceive_v and_o be_v deceive_v even_o in_o doctrine_n of_o high_a consequence_n neither_o can_v with_o such_o security_n be_v believe_v witness_v the_o

the_o passage_n you_o allege_v out_o of_o saint_n austin_n infer_v the_o contrary_n for_o although_o the_o sure_a course_n to_o put_v a_o end_n to_o all_o labour_n and_o turmoil_n be_v to_o follow_v the_o way_n of_o catholic_a discipline_n which_o have_v fly_v down_o to_o we_o from_o christ_n by_o his_o apostle_n yet_o the_o authority_n that_o sway_v most_o in_o the_o present_a church_n do_v

to_o affirm_v that_o the_o rock_n whereof_o the_o israelite_n drink_v in_o the_o wilderness_n be_v christ._n yea_o our_o saviour_n himself_o plain_o profess_v that_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n do_v

otherwise_o then_o by_o represent_v the_o same_o substance_n together_o with_o we_o i_o suppose_v if_o you_o search_v every_o corner_n of_o scripture_n never_o so_o narrow_o you_o shall_v never_o find_v it_o therein_o add_v hereunto_o that_o our_o sacrament_n be_v themselves_o figure_n 22._o be_v as_o saint_n augustine_n say_v one_o thing_n and_o signify_v another_o whence_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o old_a sacrament_n be_v figure_n of_o the_o new_a they_o shall_v be_v figure_n of_o figure_n and_o sacrament_n of_o sacrament_n which_o stand_v not_o great_o with_o reason_n for_o
