A17261 Truth and falshood, or, A comparison betweene the truth now taught in England, and the doctrine of the Romish church: with a briefe confutation of that popish doctrine. Hereunto is added an answere to such reasons as the popish recusants alledge, why they will not come to our churches.

certain_a external_a mean_n and_o help_n be_v require_v yet_o those_o move_v we_o nothing_o without_o the_o work_n of_o god_n holy_a spirit_n and_o he_o much_o mislike_v of_o they_o that_o teach_v
