they_o be_v make_v righteous_a when_o they_o be_v justify_v but_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v they_o be_v justify_v free_o by_o his_o grace_n rom._n iij._n and_o to_o explain_v himself_o a_o little_a after_o he_o add_v that_o grace_n will_v not_o be_v grace_n if_o it_o be_v not_o give_v free_o but_o render_v as_o a_o due_a debt_n in_o the_o same_o epistle_n i_o find_v also_o these_o word_n it_o

what_o logic_n there_o be_v in_o this_o i_o be_o yet_o to_o learn._n 2._o if_o he_o do_v offer_v himself_o at_o his_o last_o supper_n to_o who_o do_v he_o do_v it_o for_o we_o do_v not_o find_v that_o he_o do_v address_v himself_o or_o offer_v any_o thing_n to_o any_o but_o only_o to_o his_o disciple_n and_o sure_o he_o will_v not_o say_v that_o he_o offer_v himself_o as_o a_o sacrifice_n unto_o they_o 3._o if_o he_o do_v offer_v his_o body_n and_o blood_n than_o be_v it_o not_o a_o unbloody_a sacrifice_n as_o they_o say_v it_o be_v 4._o if_o it_o be_v a_o unbloody_a sacrifice_n than_o can_v it_o not_o be_v propitiatory_a for_o without_o shed_v of_o blood_n there_o be_v no_o remission_n of_o sin_n heb._n ix_o 22._o but_o the_o vindicator_n have_v good_a scripture_n for_o all_o this_o

this_o be_v not_o this_o be_v transubstantiate_a or_o wonderful_o convert_v into_o another_o substance_n viz_o the_o substance_n of_o my_o body_n 2._o if_o when_o he_o say_v this_o be_v he_o mean_v

the_o sake_n of_o that_o authority_n by_o which_o it_o be_v deliver_v of_o this_o sort_n there_o be_v multitude_n of_o verity_n contain_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o for_o instance_n that_o

all_o thing_n that_o be_v there_o be_v not_o equal_o of_o faith_n many_o of_o they_o be_v not_o absolute_a and_o necessary_a but_o only_o occasional_a and_o accidental_a object_n of_o faith_n as_o i_o have_v already_o show_v as_o for_o baptism_n and_o the_o lord_n supper_n we_o acknowledge_v they_o to_o be_v great_a mystery_n of_o our_o religion_n but_o they_o be_v not_o point_n of_o mere_a faith_n and_o therefore_o not_o within_o the_o question_n that_o the_o scripture_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o that_o such_o and_o such_o book_n be_v canonical_a depend_v upon_o another_o evidence_n by_o which_o we_o must_v be_v convince_v that_o they_o be_v so_o before_o we_o can_v give_v a_o rational_a assent_n to_o the_o article_n of_o the_o creed_n because_o they_o be_v all_o take_v out_o of_o these_o book_n and_o our_o belief_n of_o they_o build_v upon_o that_o authority_n the_o belief_n therefore_o of_o this_o be_v necessary_o antecedent_n to_o the_o belief_n of_o the_o other_o it_o will_v have_v be_v a_o very_a absurd_a and_o preposterous_a thing_n to_o have_v make_v that_o a_o article_n of_o our_o creed_n as_o for_o the_o 39_o article_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n they_o be_v propound_v only_o as_o article_n of_o communion_n not_o as_o article_n of_o faith_n and_o therefore_o the_o objection_n do_v not_o reach_v they_o and_o as_o for_o the_o nicene_n and_o
