the_o sufficiency_n thereof_o for_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o humble_a and_o teachable_a mind_n in_o all_o the_o point_n of_o faith_n which_o be_v then_o controvert_v tertullian_n undertake_v the_o same_o cause_n in_o several_a book_n and_o several_a way_n one_o be_v by_o show_v that_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o heretic_n be_v novel_a not_o be_v consistent_a with_o the_o doctrine_n deliver_v by_o the_o apostle_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o unanimous_a consent_n of_o the_o apostolical_a church_n which_o do_v all_o believe_v christ_n have_v a_o true_a and_o real_a body_n and_o this_o way_n he_o make_v use_v of_o because_o those_o heretic_n either_o reject_v or_o interpolate_v or_o pervert_v the_o book_n of_o scripture_n but_o this_o way_n of_o prescription_n look_v like_o out-lawing_a of_o heretic_n and_o never_o suffer_v they_o to_o come_v to_o a_o fair_a trial._n therefore_o in_o his_o other_o book_n he_o go_v upon_o three_o substantial_a ground_n 1._o that_o the_o book_n of_o scripture_n do_v valentin_n certain_o deliver_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o christian_a church_n concern_v christ_n have_v a_o true_a body_n 2._o that_o these_o book_n of_o scripture_n be_v not_o

word_n of_o scripture_n be_v force_v and_o unreasonable_a but_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o church_n be_v true_a and_o natural_a so_o that_o tertullian_n do_v conclude_v that_o there_o be_v no_o way_n to_o end_v this_o controversy_n but_o by_o find_v out_o the_o true_a sense_n of_o scripture_n but_o the_o author_n of_o the_o defence_n bring_v in_o tertullian_n as_o 17._o represent_v all_o trial_n of_o doctrine_n by_o scripture_n as_o good_a for_o nothing_o but_o to_o turn_v the_o brain_n or_o the_o stomach_n and_o that_o the_o issue_n be_v either_o uncertain_a or_o none_o i_o grant_v tertullian_n have_v those_o word_n but_o for_o truth_n sake_n i_o wish_v he_o have_v not_o leave_v out_o other_o viz._n that_o those_o heretic_n do_v not_o receive_v some_o scripture_n and_o those_o they_o do_v receive_v they_o add_v and_o alter_v as_o they_o please_v and_o what_o say_v he_o can_v the_o most_o skilful_a in_o scripture_n do_v with_o those_o who_o will_v defend_v or_o deny_v what_o they_o think_v fit_a with_o such_o indeed_o he_o say_v it_o be_v to_o little_a purpose_n to_o dispute_v out_o of_o scripture_n and_o no_o doubt_n he_o be_v in_o the_o right_a for_o the_o rule_n must_v be_v allow_v on_o both_o side_n or_o else_o there_o can_v be_v nothing_o but_o a_o wrangle_n about_o it_o the_o first_o thing_n than_o here_o be_v to_o settle_v the_o rule_n and_o for_o this_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o apostolical_a church_n be_v of_o great_a use_n but_o to_o imagine_v that_o tertullian_n reject_v all_o trial_n of_o doctrine_n by_o scripture_n be_v to_o make_v he_o to_o write_v to_o little_a purpose_n afterward_o when_o he_o combat_n with_o all_o sort_n of_o heretic_n out_o of_o scripture_n as_o appear_v by_o his_o book_n against_o martion_n praxeas_n hermogenes_n and_o other_o and_o tertullian_n himself_o say_v that_o if_o we_o bring_v heretic_n only_o to_o scripture_n they_o can_v stand_v not_o because_o 3._o they_o go_v only_o upon_o reason_n but_o in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o same_o treatise_n he_o say_v they_o make_v use_v of_o scripture_n too_o but_o such_o as_o be_v to_o be_v confute_v by_o other_o 63._o scripture_n and_o therefore_o he_o make_v the_o heretic_n to_o decline_v as_o much_o as_o in_o they_o lay_v the_o light_n of_o the_o scripture_n which_o he_o will_v never_o have_v charge_v on_o other_o if_o he_o think_v himself_o that_o controversy_n can_v not_o be_v end_v by_o 47._o they_o clemens_n alexandrinus_n speak_v of_o the_o same_o heresy_n make_v the_o controversy_n to_o consist_v chief_o about_o the_o scripture_n whether_o
