to_o make_v the_o last_o resolution_n of_o their_o faith_n into_o the_o veracity_n of_o any_o such_o universal_a tradition_n for_o our_o faith_n must_v rest_v on_o the_o same_o that_o the_o apostle_n

infuse_a faith_n do_v rest_v only_o or_o chief_o on_o the_o credit_n of_o the_o church_n or_o universal_a tradition_n than_o our_o infuse_a faith_n can_v go_v no_o high_o than_o a_o human_a and_o create_a truth_n i_o mean_v only_o or_o chief_o on_o the_o voice_n or_o reason_n of_o man_n and_o not_o on_o the_o voice_n and_o authority_n of_o god_n but_o what_o be_v this_o to_o translation_n much_o every_o way_n i_o argue_v thus_o the_o end_n of_o the_o church_n and_o people_n of_o god_n be_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v save_v now_o if_o god_n set_v down_o the_o end_n he_o will_v provide_v the_o mean_n of_o their_o finem_fw-la salvation_n and_o that_o be_v faith_n and_o faith_n be_v not_o build_v on_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n or_o of_o universal_a tradition_n all_o which_o be_v the_o voice_n of_o man_n but_o on_o the_o word_n of_o god_n now_o this_o word_n of_o god_n can_v concern_v common_a people_n but_o only_o as_o translate_v now_o what_o shall_v a_o poor_a unlearned_a christian_a do_v if_o that_o he_o have_v nothing_o to_o rest_v his_o poor_a soul_n on_o the_o original_n he_o understand_v not_o if_o he_o do_v the_o first_o copy_n be_v not_o to_o be_v
