Or A discourse prouing, that a man who beleeueth in the Trinity, the Incarnation, the Passion &c. & yet beleeueth not all other inferiour articles of Christian fayth, cannot be saued And consequently, that both the Catholike, and the Protestant (seeing the one necessarily wanteth true fayth) cannot be saued.

particular_a choice_n to_o insist_v upon_o omit_v some_o other_o of_o like_a nature_n because_o we_o see_v that_o most_o or_o all_o of_o they_o do_v immediate_o and_o principal_o as_o be_v above_o say_v touch_v the_o mean_n of_o purchase_v of_o grace_n of_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o obtain_v of_o salvation_n be_v maintain_v for_o such_o by_o the_o catholic_n but_o utter_o deny_v &_o reject_v by_o protestant_n and_o here_o i_o now_o urge_v two_o thing_n first_o if_o these_o former_a doctrine_n as_o they_o be_v believe_v by_o the_o catholic_n do_v immediate_o concern_v salvation_n and_o become_v necessary_a mean_n thereof_o then_o can_v the_o protestant_n as_o reject_v all_o such_o doctrine_n and_o such_o mean_n both_o in_o belief_n &_o practice_n be_v save_v but_o if_o by_o a_o supposal_n they_o be_v not_o of_o that_o nature_n but_o false_a in_o themselves_o and_o the_o contrary_a doctrine_n true_a then_o can_v the_o catholic_n as_o believe_v false_a doctrine_n immediate_o touch_v man_n salvation_n and_o according_o practise_v they_o be_v save_v from_o which_o fork_a argument_n it_o may_v most_o demonstrative_o be_v infer_v that_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o both_o the_o catholics_n and_o the_o protestant_n the_o one_o part_n believe_v the_o other_o part_v not_o believe_v the_o foresay_a doctrine_n shall_v both_o be_v save_v for_o who_o neglect_v necessary_a mean_n shall_v never_o attain_v to_o the_o design_a end_n of_o the_o say_a mean_n second_o i_o urge_v that_o a_o false_a belief_n not_o only_o in_o these_o article_n but_o also_o in_o any_o other_o controversye_n between_o the_o catholic_n and_o the_o protestant_n be_v plain_a heresy_n and_o this_o because_o every_o false_a belief_n be_v comprehend_v within_o the_o definition_n of_o heresy_n as_o be_v in_o itself_o a_o election_n &_o choice_n of_o a_o new_a or_o false_a doctrine_n wilful_o maintain_v against_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o it_o follow_v that_o either_o the_o catholic_n or_o protestant_n for_o their_o persist_v in_o this_o false_a belief_n or_o heresy_n shall_v be_v damn_v 10._o but_o here_o i_o will_v stay_v myself_o wade_v no_o further_a in_o the_o disquisition_n and_o search_n of_o the_o great_a dissension_n between_o catholic_n and_o protestant_n touch_v faith_n and_o belief_n only_o i_o will_v reflect_v a_o little_a upon_o the_o premise_n of_o the_o two_o last_o chapter_n and_o here_o since_o it_o be_v make_v most_o evident_a first_o that_o the_o protestant_n and_o catholic_n do_v main_o differ_v in_o the_o sense_n and_o construction_n of_o the_o article_n of_o the_o creed_n and_o consequent_o see_v the_o sense_n and_o not_o the_o word_n make_v the_o creed_n that_o they_o both_o do_v not_o believe_v one_o and_o the_o same_o creed_n but_o have_v to_o themselves_o several_a creed_n from_o whence_o sufficient_o be_v discover_v that_o want_v of_o unity_n in_o faith_n among_o they_o both_o which_o unity_n be_v so_o necessary_o require_v to_o man_n salvation_n as_o in_o the_o precedent_a chapter_n be_v demonstrate_v second_o that_o though_o by_o supposition_n they_o do_v believe_v the_o creed_n &_o the_o sense_n thereof_o with_o a_o unanimous_a consent_n yet_o it_o be_v prove_v that_o there_o be_v diverse_a other_o article_n not_o contain_v in_o the_o creed_n which_o be_v indifferent_o believe_v as_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n both_o by_o catholic_a and_o protestant_n three_o see_v also_o there_o be_v sundry_a controversy_n in_o religion_n as_o be_v above_o exemplify_v which_o immediate_o concern_v salvation_n be_v houlden_v as_o necessary_a mean_n thereof_o by_o the_o catholic_n but_o disclaim_v from_o and_o abandon_v by_o protestant_n as_o main_n error_n and_o false_a doctrine_n that_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o manifest_a error_n to_o make_v the_o creed_n the_o sole_a rule_n of_o faith_n 11._o therefore_o from_o all_o the_o former_a premise_n i_o do_v aver_v that_o he_o who_o maintain_v that_o both_o catholic_n &_o protestant_n and_o consequent_o man_n of_o any_o religion_n notwithstanding_o that_o the_o one_o side_n do_v necessary_o believe_v and_o maintain_v heresy_n
