the_o church_n what_o be_v this_o but_o to_o trifle_v i_o must_v believe_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v scripture_n because_o the_o church_n tell_v i_o so_o i_o must_v believe_v that_o the_o report_n of_o the_o church_n be_v true_a because_o the_o scripture_n say_v so_o but_o for_o your_o better_a satisfaction_n in_o this_o point_n i_o refer_v you_o to_o my_o answer_n in_o the_o 2._o &_o 5._o article_n of_o this_o former_a part_n i_o can_v well_o conceive_v to_o what_o purpose_n this_o last_o clause_n be_v add_v if_o to_o prove_v the_o article_n that_o the_o protestant_n know_v not_o what_o they_o believe_v it_o be_v insufficient_a they_o that_o know_v not_o what_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o believe_v express_o distinct_o explicit_o know_v not_o what_o they_o believe_v for_o no_o more_o be_v prove_v by_o this_o reason_n but_o that_o they_o know_v not_o every_o particular_a which_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o believe_v and_o if_o this_o be_v a_o disgrace_n to_o protestant_n and_o their_o profession_n how_o shall_v papist_n &_o popery_n escape_v without_o reproach_n when_o as_o there_o be_v no_o rule_n among_o they_o to_o teach_v what_o they_o ought_v to_o believe_v express_o distinct_o etc._n etc._n and_o as_o all_o protestant_n can_v believe_v all_o the_o scripture_n distinct_o explicit_o no_o more_o can_v all_o papist_n so_o believe_v what_o the_o church_n deliver_v to_o be_v believe_v and_o therefore_o be_v their_o fides_fw-la implicita_fw-la devise_v neither_o be_v it_o prove_v that_o the_o protestant_n have_v no_o rule_n to_o know_v what_o be_v matter_n of_o

how_o to_o use_v it_o as_o it_o also_o fall_v out_o ordinary_o with_o unlearned_a papist_n in_o the_o rule_n that_o they_o follow_v to_o this_o same_o purpose_n if_o the_o creed_n say_v you_o be_v not_o the_o limit_n of_o belief_n the_o protestant_n have_v no_o rule_n to_o know_v what_o be_v matter_n of_o faith_n i_o think_v the_o protestant_n be_v yet_o unborn_a that_o make_v the_o d._n d._n

papist_n will_v deny_v but_o if_o it_o be_v grant_v that_o all_o protestant_n do_v so_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o prove_v that_o the_o protestant_n have_v no_o rule_n whereby_o to_o know_v what_o be_v matter_n of_o faith_n but_o that_o they_o have_v a_o unperfect_a rule_n to_o be_v short_a who_o know_v not_o that_o the_o protestant_n make_v the_o whole_a scripture_n the_o rule_n of_o their_o belief_n hold_v themselves_o bind_v in_o conscience_n to_o acknowledge_v all_o thing_n contain_v therein_o to_o be_v the_o most_o true_a word_n of_o god_n and_o that_o out_o of_o the_o scripture_n there_o be_v nothing_o necessary_o to_o be_v believe_v for_o salvation_n whereas_o the_o papist_n disable_v the_o write_a word_n of_o god_n to_o establish_v the_o fancy_n of_o mortal_a man_n join_v the_o unwritten_a tradition_n of_o i_o know_v not_o who_o in_o equal_a authority_n with_o the_o write_a word_n of_o the_o almighty_a god_n but_o the_o creed_n say_v you_o be_v not_o the_o limit_n of_o faith_n that_o the_o creed_n be_v no_o perfect_a rule_n of_o our_o belief_n we_o be_v so_o far_o from_o deny_v that_o we_o make_v this_o reason_n one_o of_o the_o ground_n whereupon_o we_o build_v our_o persuasion_n that_o because_o of_o the_o unperfectnesse_n thereof_o it_o be_v not_o pen_v by_o the_o apostle_n whereas_o if_o it_o have_v be_v it_o will_v have_v be_v perfect_a and_o canonical_a scripture_n such_o as_o yet_o it_o never_o be_v acknowledge_v to_o be_v howsoever_o we_o willing_o grant_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o it_o but_o sound_v and_o agreeable_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n in_o the_o scripture_n so_o much_o the_o more_o wrong_n have_v this_o slanderer_n do_v we_o to_o charge_v any_o of_o we_o with_o the_o denial_n of_o any_o one_o article_n thereof_o especial_o since_o no_o heretic_n be_v ever_o charge_v with_o the_o denial_n of_o scripture_n because_o they_o misinterpret_v it_o and_o yet_o by_o this_o author_n judgement_n the_o creed_n be_v not_o so_o bare_a as_o here_o he_o will_v fain_o make_v it_o for_o in_o the_o second_o part_n of_o this_o article_n he_o teach_v we_o that_o by_o believe_v the_o communion_n of_o saint_n we_o believe_v first_o that_o there_o be_v seven_o sacrament_n second_o that_o christ_n be_v bodily_a present_n in_o the_o eucharist_n three_o that_o we_o must_v pray_v to_o the_o saint_n four_o that_o we_o must_v pray_v for_o the_o soul_n in_o purgatory_n in_o the_o four_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o by_o believe_v the_o article_n of_o remission_n of_o sin_n we_o believe_v that_o baptism_n take_v away_o the_o be_v of_o sin_n they_o that_o deny_v some_o article_n of_o their_o creed_n say_v you_o have_v e._n e._n no_o rule_n to_o know_v what_o be_v matter_n of_o faith_n they_o that_o deny_v all_o the_o article_n of_o their_o creed_n have_v indeed_o no_o rule_n suppose_v that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o rule_n but_o the_o creed_n but_o so_o much_o of_o the_o creed_n as_o they_o deny_v not_o they_o have_v still_o for_o a_o rule_n to_o know_v what_o be_v matter_n of_o faith_n but_o the_o protestant_n say_v you_o deny_v three_o article_n of_o their_o creed_n and_o the_o puritant_n five_o he_o that_o
