of_o their_o church_n this_o latter_a i_o undertake_v to_o make_v out_o from_o the_o undeniable_a maxim_n to_o which_o all_o of_o that_o communion_n be_v bind_v to_o adhere_v there_o be_v two_o

the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n be_v good_a they_o be_v alike_o strong_a at_o all_o time_n and_o in_o all_o age_n and_o therefore_o though_o in_o write_v book_n of_o controversy_n they_o

the_o decree_n of_o they_o be_v of_o equal_a authority_n second_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n be_v as_o little_a to_o be_v dispute_v in_o moral_a matter_n that_o fall_v under_o practice_n

the_o worship_n of_o they_o have_v to_o the_o 2d_o commandment_n since_o the_o church_n have_v once_o determine_v that_o it_o may_v be_v lawful_o use_v it_o be_v heresy_n to_o deny_v it_o on_o this_o

their_o own_o assent_n to_o it_o this_o pass_v as_o a_o sufficient_a proof_n of_o the_o tradition_n of_o any_o age_n of_o the_o church_n so_o in_o all_o point_n of_o controversy_n between_o they_o and_o we_o the_o great_a part_n of_o their_o writer_n some_o few_o late_a and_o suspect_v one_o only_a except_v think_v they_o have_v sufficient_o justify_v their_o church_n when_o they_o bring_v testimony_n out_o of_o any_o of_o the_o write_n of_o the_o father_n that_o seem_v to_o favour_v their_o opinion_n and_o will_v call_v it_o unreasonable_a for_o we_o to_o reject_v these_o because_o they_o only_o deliver_v their_o own_o opinion_n and_o do_v not_o call_v it_o the_o tradition_n of_o the_o church_n but_o conclude_v that_o many_o writer_n in_o any_o age_n assert_v a_o opinion_n it_o may_v well_o be_v look_v on_o as_o the_o tradition_n of_o that_o age._n but_o because_o this_o be_v more_o liable_a to_o exception_n there_o be_v another_o way_n that_o be_v more_o infallible_a to_o

they_o have_v so_o many_o proof_n from_o the_o high_a thing_n some_o of_o the_o father_n have_v say_v about_o the_o dignity_n of_o that_o see_n now_o if_o these_o conclude_v any_o thing_n it_o must_v

have_v deliver_v when_o assemble_v in_o a_o general_a council_n this_o be_v the_o supreme_a tribunal_n in_o the_o church_n there_o can_v lie_v no_o appeal_n from_o it_o nor_o can_v the_o doctrine_n

to_o these_o a_o new_a one_o have_v be_v late_o add_v which_o be_v indeed_o a_o much_o short_a and_o near_a way_n and_o that_o be_v whatever_o the_o church_n hold_v in_o any_o one_o age_n as_o a_o

conduct_n do_v cast_v she_o into_o if_o any_o of_o that_o party_n will_v review_v these_o particular_n and_o so_o far_o trust_v their_o own_o reason_n as_o to_o judge_v according_a to_o the_o plain_a evidence_n they_o can_v resist_v the_o conviction_n that_o they_o must_v needs_o meet_v with_o when_o they_o see_v the_o simplicity_n of_o our_o faith_n the_o morality_n of_o our_o doctrine_n the_o

these_o thing_n be_v so_o clear_a that_o few_o can_v resist_v the_o force_n of_o so_o much_o plain_a truth_n if_o it_o be_v not_o for_o some_o prejudices_fw-la with_o which_o they_o be_v so_o fetter_v that_o they_o can_v examine_v matter_n with_o that_o freedom_n of_o mind_n that_o be_v necessary_a therefore_o much_o care_n must_v be_v take_v to_o clear_v these_o in_o the_o most_o familiar_a and_o

church_n there_o be_v no_o salvation_n three_o that_o the_o case_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v much_o safe_a than_o we_o be_v since_o the_o church_n of_o england_n acknowledge_v a_o possibility_n of_o salvation_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n which_o they_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n deny_v to_o the_o church_n of_o england_n four_o that_o unless_o there_o be_v a_o supreme_a judge_n set_v up_o we_o can_v be_v sure_a of_o nothing_o in_o religion_n but_o must_v fall_v into_o many_o faction_n and_o party_n and_o five_o that_o the_o reformation_n be_v but_o a_o novelty_n begin_v in_o the_o former_a age_n and_o carry_v on_o in_o this_o nation_n out_o of_o a_o ill_a design_n and_o manage_v with_o much_o sacrilege_n the_o first_o of_o these_o seem_v necessary_a to_o be_v clear_v in_o the_o begin_n of_o this_o discourse_n and_o i_o be_o deceive_v if_o it_o be_v not_o do_v convince_o and_o for_o the_o second_o we_o agree_v to_o it_o that_o out_o of_o the_o true_a church_n there_o be_v no_o s●…lvation_n but_o then_o the_o question_n come_v what_o make_v one_o a_o member_n of_o the_o true_a church_n the_o scripture_n call_v the_o church_n the_o body_n of_o christ_n of_o which_o he_o be_v the_o head_n 23._o so_o then_o whoever_o be_v join_v to_o christ_n according_a to_o the_o gospel_n must_v be_v within_o the_o true_a church_n but_o the_o deceit_n that_o lie_v hide_v under_o this_o be_v that_o from_o hence_o they_o fancy_v that_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o church_n do_v consist_v in_o a_o outward_a communion_n with_o the_o see_v of_o rome_n and_o upon_o that_o they_o calculate_v that_o there_o must_v be_v a_o unity_n in_o the_o body_n of_o the_o church_n and_o that_o can_v be_v except_o all_o be_v join_v to_o the_o see_v of_o rome_n now_o we_o grant_v there_o be_v but_o one_o church_n but_o this_o unity_n consist_v not_o in_o a_o outward_a communion_n though_o that_o be_v much_o to_o be_v desire_v but_o consist_v in_o a_o unity_n of_o belief_n about_o the_o essential_o of_o christianity_n there_o be_v nothing_o more_o evident_a than_o that_o even_o according_a to_o their_o own_o principle_n other_o church_n be_v not_o bind_v upon_o the_o hazard_n of_o damnation_n to_o hold_v communion_n with_o the_o see_v of_o rome_n for_o it_o be_v not_o a_o article_n of_o faith_n nor_o certain_a according_a to_o their_o own_o doctrine_n that_o the_o pope_n be_v infallible_a and_o except_o that_o be_v certain_a we_o can_v be_v oblige_v to_o hold_v communion_n under_o such_o a_o sanction_n with_o that_o see_n for_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o a_o pope_n may_v become_v a_o heretic_n or_o schismatic_a which_o many_o of_o they_o confess_v and_o all_o agree_v that_o the_o contrary_n be_v not_o of_o faith_n then_o other_o church_n be_v not_o in_o that_o case_n oblige_v to_o hold_v communion_n with_o that_o see_n if_o therefore_o the_o possibility_n of_o error_n in_o that_o see_v be_v acknowledge_v then_o hold_v communion_n with_o it_o can_v be_v the_o measure_n of_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o church_n so_o we_o bring_v it_o to_o this_o issue_n it_o be_v not_o heresy_n to_o say_v the_o pope_n may_v err_v therefore_o this_o be_v no_o just_a prejudice_n against_o our_o church_n because_o we_o have_v depart_v from_o communion_n with_o he_o when_o he_o impose_v his_o error_n on_o we_o so_o all_o the_o high_a thing_n they_o boast_v of_o that_o see_v come_v to_o nothing_o except_o they_o say_v this_o proposition_n be_v of_o faith_n that_o the_o pope_n be_v infallible_a and_o for_o these_o meeting_n that_o they_o call_v general_a council_n they_o be_v at_o best_a but_o the_o council_n of_o the_o western_a patriarchate_o artificial_o pack_v and_o manage_v with_o much_o art_n as_o appear_v even_o from_o cardinal_n pallavicini_n history_n of_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n for_o the_o three_o prejudice_n it_o be_v the_o most_o disingenuous_a thing_n that_o can_v be_v because_o our_o church_n be_v charitable_a and_o modest_a in_o her_o censure_n and_o they_o be_v uncharitable_a and_o cruel_a in_o her_o judgement_n therefore_o to_o conclude_v that_o communion_n with_o they_o be_v safe_a than_o with_o we_o if_o confidence_n and_o presumption_n noise_n and_o arrogance_n be_v the_o mark_n to_o judge_v a_o church_n by_o we_o must_v yield_v to_o they_o in_o these_o but_o if_o truth_n and_o peace_n charity_n and_o holy_a doctrine_n be_v the_o better_a standard_n than_o we_o be_v as_o sure_a that_o our_o communion_n be_v much_o safe_a let_v this_o rule_n be_v apply_v to_o the_o other_o concern_v of_o human_a life_n and_o it_o will_v appear_v how_o ridiculous_a a_o abuse_n it_o be_v to_o take_v measure_n from_o so_o false_a a_o standard_n if_o a_o man_n be_v sick_a the_o question_n come_v whether_o he_o shall_v use_v a_o approve_a physician_n or_o a_o montebank_n on_o the_o one_o hand_n the_o montebank_n say_v he_o will_v certain_o cure_v he_o and_o the_o doctor_n will_v undoubted_o kill_v he_o
