A50334	Doubts concerning the Roman infallibility I. whether the Church of Rome believe it, II. whether Jesus Christ or his Apostles ever recommended it, III. whether the primitive church knew or used that way of deciding controversie.

wary_a conduct_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n towards_o her_o own_o member_n seem_v to_o confess_v a_o distrust_n of_o she_o own_o infallibility_n so_o the_o unreasonable_a confidence_n which_o she_o use_v towards_o we_o beget_v in_o we_o a_o just_a suspicion_n that_o she_o be_v in_o the_o wrong_n and_o be_v not_o altogether_o insensible_a of_o it_o for_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o a_o very_a bad_a cause_n when_o those_o concern_v to_o defend_v it_o be_v unwilling_a to_o enter_v into_o its_o merit_n and_o instead_o of_o that_o only_a bluster_n and_o stand_v upon_o their_o privilege_n instead_o of_o maintain_v it_o by_o law_n and_o reason_n declare_v that_o they_o be_v to_o give_v law_n and_o not_o to_o submit_v to_o any_o and_o that_o whatsoever_o they_o say_v that_o must_v be_v reason_n this_o be_v a_o extravagancy_n in_o which_o no_o authority_n upon_o earth_n can_v bear_v a_o man_n out_o for_o if_o a_o professor_n when_o he_o be_v press_v by_o some_o untoward_a objection_n against_o some_o opinion_n he_o have_v deliver_v shall_v think_v fit_a to_o answer_v only_o with_o his_o brow_n or_o else_o to_o deliver_v it_o again_o as_o his_o positive_a judgement_n out_o of_o the_o chair_n declare_v that_o it_o belong_v to_o he_o to_o dictate_v in_o that_o place_n i_o be_o apt_a to_o believe_v that_o his_o beard_n though_o never_o so_o venerable_a will_v scarce_o be_v able_a to_o preserve_v he_o from_o the_o contempt_n and_o derision_n of_o his_o own_o disciple_n or_o if_o a_o judge_n question_v for_o a_o unjust_a sentence_n shall_v instead_o of_o law_n or_o equity_n produce_v only_o his_o commission_n to_o justify_v his_o act_n i_o be_o afraid_a whatever_o become_v of_o his_o person_n his_o reputation_n will_v be_v in_o some_o danger_n especial_o if_o

some_o may_v ascribe_v the_o infallibility-shift_n to_o the_o confidence_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n i_o shall_v rather_o impute_v it_o to_o her_o desperation_n and_o we_o be_v the_o more_o

upon_o which_o we_o find_v she_o open_o to_o have_v declare_v herself_o infallible_a when_o the_o eastern_a church_n quarrel_v with_o those_o of_o the_o west_n about_o some_o point_n of_o doctrine_n as_o well_o as_o ecclesiastical_a observance_n among_o other_o thing_n they_o urge_v that_o the_o catholic_n church_n be_v on_o their_o side_n for_o of_o the_o five_o patriarch_n which_o govern_v
