it_o be_v not_o long_o since_o you_o say_v for_o 900._o year_n now_o a_o thousand_o but_o to_o let_v that_o pass_v for_o it_o be_v but_o 100_o year_n difference_n and_o we_o can_v well_o afford_v it_o

the_o fundamental_a error_n in_o faith_n that_o be_v how_o many_o and_o which_o be_v those_o error_n in_o faith_n which_o destroy_v salvation_n for_o what_o help_v it_o a_o christian_n to_o know_v that_o there_o be_v such_o destructive_a and_o damnable_a error_n unless_o he_o know_v whether_o he_o hold_v any_o such_o error_n himself_o or_o no_o and_o how_o can_v he_o ever_o be_v certain_a of_o that_o so_o long_o as_o he_o be_v ignorant_a which_o be_v fundamental_a error_n which_o not_o if_o this_o catalogue_n be_v refuse_v i_o demand_v at_o least_o some_o evident_a mean_n or_o mark_n to_o distinguish_v error_n in_o faith_n destructive_a to_o salvation_n or_o damnable_a from_o other_o consistent_a with_o salvation_n or_o venial_a which_o be_v neither_o to_o deny_v any_o of_o the_o article_n contain_v in_o the_o three_o creed_n as_o some_o protestant_n have_v think_v for_o one_o of_o they_o put_v the_o procession_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n from_o the_o father_n and_o the_o

of_o the_o matter_n they_o contain_v come_v not_o by_o far_o so_o near_o the_o radical_a and_o primary_n mystery_n of_o christian_a faith_n as_o do_v many_o point_v controvert_v betwixt_o protestant_n and_o those_o of_o the_o roman_a church_n and_o therefore_o can_v with_o any_o show_n of_o truth_n be_v term_v fundamental_a by_o protestant_n such_o as_o be_v the_o circumstance_n of_o time_n and_o person_n as_o that_o our_o saviour_n suffer_v under_o pontius_n pilate_n and_o no_o other_o judge_n that_o he_o rise_v the_o three_o and_o no_o other_o day_n etc._n etc._n and_o because_o some_o point_n necessary_a to_o the_o subsistence_n of_o christian_a faith_n according_a to_o protestant_n be_v not_o express_o define_v in_o that_o creed_n as_o that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v the_o

rule_n to_o know_v which_o be_v which_o be_v not_o fundamental_a point_n for_o there_o be_v a_o thousand_o nay_o a_o million_o of_o truth_n express_v in_o scripture_n which_o touch_v not_o immediate_o the_o foundation_n of_o faith_n as_o protestant_n term_v it_o and_o no_o small_a number_n of_o point_n according_a to_o they_o fundamental_a which_o be_v not_o express_v in_o scripture_n as_o the_o

in_o their_o principle_n be_v such_o point_n of_o faith_n that_o true_a faith_n and_o consequent_o salvation_n can_v be_v obtain_v without_o they_o for_o if_o sole_a scripture_n as_o they_o affirm_v
