fundamental_a article_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n than_o idolatry_n itself_o do_v not_o prove_v such_o a_o apostasy_n from_o fundamental_a truth_n and_o this_o be_v the_o opinion_n of_o those_o who_o own_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n a_o true_a though_o a_o corrupt_a church_n notwithstanding_o they_o charge_v she_o with_o idolatrous_a practice_n for_o they_o consider_v that_o the_o jewish_a church_n be_v guilty_a of_o idolatry_n in_o the_o worship_n of_o the_o golden_a calf_n and_o the_o calf_n at_o dan_n and_o bethel_n and_o yet_o be_v a_o true_a church_n still_o because_o they_o worship_v only_o the_o true_a god_n the_o god_n of_o israel_n though_o in_o a_o idolatrous_a manner_n and_o i_o will_v advise_v our_o author_n not_o to_o insist_v too_o peremptory_o on_o this_o that_o idolatry_n be_v a_o apostasy_n from_o fundamental_a truth_n till_o he_o be_v sure_a that_o he_o can_v clear_v himself_o and_o his_o church_n from_o the_o charge_n of_o idolatry_n i_o know_v very_o well_o what_o he_o aim_v at_o to_o disprove_v the_o charge_n of_o idolatry_n because_o idolatry_n be_v a_o apostasy_n from_o fundamental_a truth_n and_o holiness_n and_o thus_o the_o church_n can_v apostatise_v and_o therefore_o can_v commit_v idolatry_n which_o be_v like_o their_o prove_v that_o the_o church_n have_v not_o err_v because_o it_o can_v err_v whereas_o if_o de_fw-la facto_fw-la it_o appear_v that_o the_o church_n have_v err_v that_o be_v a_o demonstration_n that_o it_o can_v err_v thus_o if_o de_fw-fr facto_fw-la it_o appear_v that_o the_o church_n be_v guilty_a of_o idolatry_n this_o be_v a_o demonstration_n that_o either_o idolatry_n be_v not_o such_o a_o fundamental_a apostasy_n or_o that_o the_o church_n may_v fall_v into_o such_o a_o apostasy_n those_o who_o say_v that_o idolatry_n be_v not_o such_o a_o apostasy_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o prove_v that_o the_o church_n may_v fall_v into_o such_o a_o apostasy_n from_o fundamental_a truth_n to_o make_v good_a their_o charge_n of_o idolatry_n those_o who_o say_v that_o idolatry_n be_v such_o a_o apostasy_n be_v bind_v to_o prove_v either_o direct_o that_o the_o church_n be_v not_o guilty_a of_o idolatry_n or_o by_o consequence_n that_o she_o can_v be_v because_o she_o can_v apostatise_v from_o fundamental_a truth_n so_o that_o the_o proof_n lie_v on_o their_o side_n not_o on_o we_o we_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o prove_v that_o the_o church_n may_v apostatise_v from_o fundamental_a truth_n and_o holiness_n because_o we_o have_v no_o occasion_n to_o say_v it_o may_v but_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o prove_v that_o the_o church_n can_v so_o apostatise_v because_o it_o be_v the_o best_a defence_n they_o have_v against_o the_o charge_n of_o idolatry_n but_o i_o can_v pass_v on_o without_o brief_o consider_v the_o nature_n of_o this_o argument_n to_o prove_v that_o a_o thing_n be_v not_o upon_o a_o pretence_n that_o it_o can_v be_v when_o there_o be_v all_o other_o possible_a evidence_n to_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v which_o be_v now_o the_o modish_a and_o popular_a way_n of_o dispute_v and_o the_o very_a last_o refuge_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n if_o you_o charge_v they_o with_o error_n and_o corruption_n in_o faith_n and_o worship_n and_o prove_v your_o charge_n beyond_o the_o possibility_n of_o a_o fair_a reply_n they_o present_o take_v sanctuary_n in_o the_o indefectibility_n or_o infallibility_n of_o their_o church_n their_o church_n can_v err_v because_o the_o council_n or_o pope_n or_o at_o least_o both_o of_o they_o together_o be_v infallible_a or_o as_o other_o say_v tradition_n be_v infallible_a for_o the_o church_n must_v believe_v to_o day_n as_o it_o do_v yesterday_o and_o to_o morrow_n as_o it_o do_v to_o day_n and_o so_o from_o one_o generation_n to_o another_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v impossible_a there_o ever_o shall_v be_v any_o change_n in_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o church_n the_o church_n can_v be_v guilty_a of_o idolatry_n because_o it_o can_v apostatise_v from_o fundamental_a truth_n and_o holiness_n and_o so_o in_o other_o case_n and_o therefore_o the_o way_n they_o take_v with_o their_o new_a convert_v be_v not_o to_o dispute_v particular_a controversy_n but_o instruct_v they_o well_o in_o this_o one_o point_n which_o put_v a_o end_n to_o all_o other_o dispute_n that_o the_o church_n can_v err_v and_o can_v apostatise_v from_o fundamental_a truth_n and_o holiness_n and_o than_o it_o be_v certain_a whatever_o she_o teach_v she_o can_v err_v and_o whatever_o she_o do_v be_v not_o apostasy_n now_o not_o to_o show_v at_o present_a how_o vain_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n challenge_v to_o herself_o the_o title_n privilege_n and_o prerogative_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n and_o appropriate_v all_o those_o promise_n to_o herself_o which_o be_v make_v to_o the_o church_n in_o general_a nor_o to_o examine_v the_o meaning_n of_o those_o text_n whereon_o she_o find_v this_o pretence_n of_o infallibility_n i_o shall_v only_o consider_v whether_o this_o plea_n the_o church_n can_v err_v therefore_o she_o have_v not_o err_v the_o church_n can_v apostatise_v from_o fundamental_a truth_n and_o holiness_n therefore_o she_o be_v not_o guilty_a of_o idolatry_n which_o say_v they_o be_v such_o a_o apostasy_n be_v sufficient_a to_o satisfy_v any_o honest_a inquisitive_a man_n who_o can_v read_v the_o scripture_n and_o compare_v what_o the_o church_n now_o believe_v and_o practice_n with_o the_o doctrine_n and_o institution_n of_o our_o saviour_n for_o 1._o when_o such_o error_n and_o corruption_n be_v notorious_o evident_a though_o but_o in_o any_o one_o instance_n to_o argue_v that_o the_o church_n have_v not_o err_v because_o she_o can_v err_v be_v to_o dispute_v against_o matter_n of_o fact_n like_o the_o philosopher_n dispute_v against_o the_o possibility_n of_o motion_n and_o no_o argument_n whatsoever_o be_v good_a against_o matter_n of_o fact_n true_a you_o will_v say_v if_o it_o be_v notorious_o evident_a that_o the_o church_n have_v err_v there_o be_v a_o end_n of_o her_o infallibility_n but_o this_o be_v matter_n of_o dispute_n whether_o she_o have_v err_v or_o not_o and_o then_o if_o you_o can_v prove_v that_o she_o can_v err_v you_o effectual_o prove_v that_o she_o have_v not_o err_v no_o such_o matter_n for_o if_o she_o be_v charge_v with_o error_n and_o plain_a evidence_n bring_v that_o she_o have_v actual_o err_v unless_o you_o can_v as_o plain_o take_v off_o this_o evidence_n it_o weaken_v and_o

be_v not_o i_o can_v never_o believe_v that_o church_n to_o be_v infallible_a which_o i_o can_v prove_v have_v err_v and_o therefore_o while_o any_o charge_n against_o the_o error_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n remain_v unanswered_a it_o be_v too_o soon_o to_o talk_v of_o her_o infallibility_n for_o actual_a error_n be_v a_o just_a confutation_n of_o infallibility_n but_o the_o pretence_n of_o infallibility_n be_v not_o a_o just_a plea_n against_o the_o charge_n of_o actual_a error_n because_o if_o i_o can_v prove_v my_o charge_n against_o they_o that_o they_o have_v err_v that_o disprove_v their_o infallibility_n and_o then_o nothing_o else_o can_v prove_v it_o so_o that_o this_o infallibility_n can_v do_v they_o no_o service_n at_o all_o in_o this_o dispute_n whether_o they_o have_v err_v or_o not_o for_o if_o i_o can_v prove_v that_o they_o have_v err_v i_o overthrow_v all_o their_o proof_n of_o infallibility_n and_o whether_o they_o have_v err_v or_o not_o be_v not_o to_o be_v try_v by_o their_o infallibility_n but_o by_o the_o rule_n of_o truth_n and_o error_n which_o be_v the_o holy_a scripture_n so_o absurd_a it_o be_v to_o think_v to_o

the_o romanist_n assert_v the_o first_o the_o protestant_n the_o second_v but_o there_o be_v this_o difference_n between_o these_o two_o plea_n that_o if_o we_o can_v make_v good_a our_o charge_n

of_o worship_n which_o be_v not_o christian._n some_o kind_n of_o separation_n indeed_o there_o must_v be_v between_o a_o pure_a and_o a_o corrupt_a church_n but_o if_o you_o will_v know_v on_o

must_v grant_v so_o that_o still_o this_o whole_a controversy_n issue_v in_o this_o whether_o the_o term_n of_o their_o communion_n be_v not_o sinful_a if_o they_o be_v this_o will_v justify_v our_o

a_o question_n to_o ask_v we_o what_o church_n we_o join_v in_o communion_n with_o when_o we_o forsake_v the_o communion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n for_o if_o by_o join_v in_o communion_n
