as_o for_o example_n if_o one_o of_o their_o priest_n shall_v pronounce_v the_o word_n of_o consecration_n in_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o not_o intend_v to_o consecrate_v the_o bread_n then_o it_o be_v no_o sacrament_n but_o the_o bread_n remain_v bare_a bread_n still_o because_o he_o do_v not_o intend_v to_o consecrate_v it_o i_o pray_v you_o remember_v this_o for_o i_o shall_v have_v occasion_n to_o mention_v it_o again_o hereafter_o so_o when_o any_o bishop_n say_v the_o word_n for_o ordain_v a_o priest_n and_o do_v not_o intend_v real_o to_o ordain_v they_o say_v he_o be_v no_o priest_n so_o when_o a_o archbishop_n seem_v to_o consecrate_v another_o bishop_n say_v the_o word_n but_o do_v not_o intend_v his_o consecration_n then_o they_o believe_v this_o man_n be_v not_o hereby_o real_o make_v bishop_n the_o word_n without_o the_o intention_n have_v no_o effect_n from_o hence_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o if_o the_o bishop_n that_o consecrate_v the_o pope_n do_v not_o intend_v to_o make_v he_o bishop_n he_o be_v none_o or_o if_o the_o bishop_n that_o consecrate_v that_o bishop_n that_o consecrate_v the_o pope_n do_v not_o intend_v it_o than_o he_o be_v no_o bishop_n and_o consequent_o can_v not_o consecrate_v a_o bishop_n he_o be_v none_o himself_o so_o that_o go_v back_o from_o bishop_n to_o bishop_n if_o one_o of_o a_o hundred_o in_o process_n of_o time_n have_v fail_v of_o intention_n than_o there_o can_v be_v no_o assurance_n that_o this_o man_n be_v real_o a_o bishop_n and_o pope_n now_o consider_v how_o many_o devilish_a wicked_a bishop_n have_v be_v among_o they_o it_o be_v more_o than_o probable_a some_o one_o of_o they_o have_v mind_v the_o business_n of_o his_o consecration_n no_o more_o than_o a_o horse_n nay_o perchance_o in_o the_o wickedness_n of_o his_o heart_n have_v laugh_v at_o that_o thing_n as_o a_o mere_a foppery_n as_o that_o blasphemous_a devilish_a pope_n laugh_v say_v o_fw-la quantum_fw-la nobis_fw-la profuit_fw-la haec_fw-la fabula_fw-la christi_fw-la what_o mighty_a advantage_n have_v that_o fable_n of_o christ_n bring_v unto_o we_o but_o whether_o he_o real_o intend_a consecration_n or_o no_o that_o be_v in_o the_o secret_a of_o his_o own_o heart_n alone_o be_v impossible_a to_o be_v know_v by_o another_o it_o be_v then_o most_o evident_a we_o can_v possible_o have_v any_o assurance_n that_o such_o a_o m●n_z be_v a_o priest_n bishop_n pope_n and_o st._n peter_n successor_n and_o if_o he_o be_v not_o st._n peter_n successor_n than_o his_o determination_n signify_v nothing_o as_o the_o papist_n confess_v where_o then_o be_v their_o assurance_n of_o any_o pope_n infallibility_n have_v no_o assurance_n that_o he_o be_v pope_n bishop_n or_o priest_n can_v any_o man_n think_v god_n infinite_a goodness_n and_o providence_n will_v leave_v hi●_n church_n in_o so_o great_a distraction_n as_o the_o papist_n s_o belief_n of_o their_o pope_n infallibility_n embroil_v we_o in_o no_o certain_o but_o god_n have_v leave_v we_o a_o short_a and_o safe_a way_n his_o holy_a scripture_n in_o search_v of_o which_o with_o sincerity_n and_o humility_n we_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o find_v eternal_a life_n for_o god_n resist_v the_o proud_a and_o give_v grace_n to_o the_o humble_a i_o have_v a_o desire_n to_o go_v yet_o a_o little_a far_o and_o let_v we_o suppose_v there_o be_v infallibility_n settle_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n i_o desire_v to_o know_v particular_o where_o it_o be_v to_o be_v find_v here_o we_o shall_v find_v the_o papist_n at_o a_o great_a stand_n some_o say_v it_o be_v in_o the_o pope_n alone_o some_o in_o a_o general_n council_n alone_o some_o say_v in_o pope_n and_o council_n together_o nay_o some_o will_v far_o tell_v you_o that_o whether_o pope_n or_o council_n or_o both_o together_o decree_v any_o thing_n yet_o that_o decree_n be_v not_o obligatory_a in_o any_o national_a church_n as_o for_o example_n in_o the_o church_n of_o france_n unless_o the_o church_n of_o france_n have_v approve_v and_o receive_v that_o council_n you_o see_v at_o what_o a_o loss_n we_o be_v still_o for_o infallibility_n they_o themselves_o be_v not_o agree_v where_o it_o be_v to_o be_v find_v but_o certain_o of_o these_o three_o several_a opinion_n i_o pass_v over_o the_o four_o it_o be_v most_o rational_a and_o coherent_a to_o their_o first_o principle_n that_o the_o infallibility_n be_v fix_v in_o the_o pope_n who_o they_o all_o grant_v to_o be_v st._n peter_n successor_n for_o this_o infallibility_n be_v original_o grant_v to_o st._n peter_n it_o be_v most_o coherent_a to_o this_o that_o it_o shall_v descend_v to_o his_o successor_n beside_o they_o that_o will_v have_v it_o in_o the_o pope_n and_o council_n together_o say_v that_o the_o pope_n only_o have_v the_o power_n to_o call_v general_a council_n and_o to_o confirm_v the_o decree_n of_o the_o council_n so_o that_o if_o he_o do_v not_o both_o call_v and_o confirm_v all_o the_o decree_n they_o be_v of_o no_o force_n nor_o any_o oblige_v to_o submit_v to_o they_o and_o thus_o in_o effect_n this_o infallibility_n determine_v in_o the_o pope_n alone_o the_o council_n signify_v nothing_o without_o he_o and_o then_o if_o this_o infallibility_n be_v reside_v in_o the_o pope_n i_o pray_v you_o remember_v what_o i_o tell_v you_o but_o now_o the_o impossibility_n of_o assurance_n of_o any_o man_n be_v right_o pope_n which_o require_v so_o many_o assure_v circumstance_n but_o now_o after_o all_o these_o innumerable_a difficulty_n and_o perplexity_n to_o find_v out_o where_o this_o infallibility_n lie_v i_o meet_v with_o another_o grand_a difficulty_n yea_o as_o great_a as_o all_o these_o put_v together_o for_o if_o we_o consider_v what_o strange_a horrid_a wicked_a creature_n have_v be_v pope_n since_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n there_o have_v not_o be_v person_n more_o abominable_o and_o devilish_o wicked_a what_o possible_a assurance_n than_o can_v be_v find_v sufficient_a to_o make_v we_o believe_v the_o infallible_a spirit_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n inhabit_v in_o such_o den_n of_o uncleanness_n and_o cruelty_n as_o the_o breast_n of_o such_o detestable_a monster_n of_o iniquity_n to_o believe_v the_o high_a incomprehensible_a mystery_n of_o our_o saviour_n be_v incarnation_n that_o the_o omnipotent_a divine_a nature_n and_o the_o weak_a nature_n of_o man_n be_v unite_v in_o one_o person_n of_o christ_n be_v sure_a a_o thing_n of_o very_o hard_a belief_n and_o require_v the_o express_a word_n of_o god_n to_o make_v we_o to_o submit_v and_o captivate_v our_o understanding_n in_o obedience_n to_o it_o what_o then_o can_v be_v sufficient_a to_o make_v we_o believe_v this_o so_o extreme_o contrary_a to_o all_o reason_n that_o the_o all-glorious_a and_o all-ho_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o devil_n shall_v be_v unite_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o such_o abominable_a pope_n what_o can_v captivate_v our_o

leave_n to_o say_v that_o i_o may_v require_v to_o see_v the_o word_n of_o god_n for_o this_o as_o plain_o and_o as_o express_o as_o we_o see_v the_o sun_n in_o a_o clear_a sky_n at_o noon_n gideon_n
