say_v the_o bible_n do_v not_o contain_v all_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n we_o do_v not_o say_v that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n do_v not_o contain_v all_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n because_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v partly_o write_v partly_o unwritten_a put_v these_o two_o together_o and_o you_o have_v all_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n nay_o the_o scripture_n

i_o ask_v what_o be_v that_o to_o say_v the_o scripture_n show_v itself_o be_v it_o that_o by_o read_v it_o rises_z in_o the_o mind_n of_o a_o man_n who_o have_v a_o well_o dispose_v understanding_n this_o apprehension_n the_o scripture_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n by_o which_o apprehension_n he_o see_v it_o be_v so_o before_o he_o judge_n or_o believe_v if_o so_o than_o he_o do_v not_o believe_v the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n move_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o by_o this_o apprehension_n which_o if_o you_o say_v be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n than_o you_o admit_v a_o word_n of_o god_n which_o be_v not_o write_v and_o yet_o to_o you_o a_o rule_n of_o faith_n and_o so_o you_o have_v another_o immediate_a rule_n of_o faith_n than_o the_o write_a word_n of_o god_n again_o that_o apprehension_n and_o inward_a testimony_n of_o the_o mind_n for_o which_o it_o be_v believe_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o that_o it_o

see_v all_o these_o particular_n come_v from_o such_o word_n institute_v by_o man_n to_o signify_v and_o that_o the_o more_o or_o less_o majesty_n of_o the_o style_n in_o a_o speech_n or_o sentence_n rise_v from_o a_o certain_a material_a place_n and_o dispose_n of_o word_n among_o themselves_o the_o whole_a thing_n be_v natural_a and_o so_o not_o the_o word_n of_o god_n next_o that_o simplicity_n and_o majesty_n of_o style_n and_o what_o you_o please_v more_o be_v not_o so_o in_o every_o part_n of_o scripture_n that_o i_o be_o bind_v for_o they_o to_o believe_v that_o that_o part_n be_v the_o

the_o jew_n now_o if_o you_o ask_v we_o why_o we_o believe_v the_o scripture_n to_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n we_o answer_v because_o a_o infallible_a tradition_n pass_v through_o all_o age_n and_o
