although_o the_o true_a church_n of_o which_o christ_n be_v in_o visible_a head_n be_v one_o yet_o the_o oneness_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v not_o a_o sufficient_a argument_n to_o prove_v

i_o utter_o deny_v witness_v the_o history_n of_o the_o counsel_n of_o trent_n which_o copious_o relate_v the_o division_n and_o contradiction_n among_o they_o there_o about_o matter_n of_o faith_n

now_o you_o go_v about_o to_o kill_v i_o thus_o do_v not_o abraham_n so_o say_v i_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n if_o she_o be_v govern_v by_o the_o one_o invisible_a head_n christ_n as_o the_o true_a church_n be_v than_o she_o will_v have_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n who_o come_v not_o to_o destroy_v man_n life_n but_o to_o save_v they_o as_o the_o true_a church_n have_v 1_o corinth_n 2.16_o but_o she_o have_v not_o the_o mind_n of_o christ_n witness_v she_o destroy_v the_o life_n of_o many_o not_o only_o of_o those_o that_o believe_v not_o but_o of_o those_o that_o believe_v therefore_o she_o be_v not_o govern_v by_o the_o invisible_a head_n christ_n and_o consequent_o be_v not_o the_o true_a church_n but_o the_o whore_n that_o drink_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o saint_n three_o but_o that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v govern_v by_o her_o visible_a head_n the_o pope_n i_o shall_v not_o go_v about_o to_o contradict_v for_o although_o that_o prove_v she_o to_o be_v one_o in_o subjection_n to_o the_o pope_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o prove_v she_o to_o be_v the_o true_a church_n because_o christ_n never_o ordain_v a_o visible_a head_n to_o his_o church_n but_o that_o the_o pope_n be_v the_o true_a successor_n of_o peter_n as_o a._n s._n affirm_v that_o i_o do_v deny_v and_o it_o remain_v for_o he_o to_o prove_v it_o or_o for_o some_o of_o his_o servant_n to_o do_v

of_o which_o the_o pope_n be_v visible_a head_n be_v not_o holy_a nor_o the_o spotless_a body_n of_o christ_n 1._o for_o the_o spotless_a body_n of_o christ_n the_o true_a church_n be_v baptize_v

the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v not_o wash_v from_o idolatry_n nor_o free_a from_o murder_n as_o her_o worship_v of_o idol_n or_o image_n do_v testify_v and_o as_o her_o kill_n and_o destroy_v about_o religion_n and_o worship_n bear_v witness_n which_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n never_o allow_v of_o not_o the_o spotless_a body_n of_o christ_n never_o practise_v therefore_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v not_o holy_a nor_o the_o spotless_a body_n of_o christ_n and_o as_o to_o that_o affirmation_n of_o a._n s._n in_o the_o three_o number_n of_o his_o first_o chapter_n viz._n every_o man_n as_o he_o be_v regenerate_v in_o christ_n and_o a_o member_n of_o his_o body_n be_v holy_a and_o a_o saint_n though_o as_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o adam_n be_v be_v a_o liar_n and_o a_o sinner_n answ_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o most_o part_n of_o all_o the_o sectary_n in_o the_o world_n will_v join_v with_o he_o in_o that_o particular_a therefore_o he_o need_v not_o so_o much_o

testify_v against_o
and_o be_v practise_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n to_o this_o day_n therefore_o she_o be_v not_o apostolic_a but_o apostate_n like_a five_o that_o the_o true_a church_n or_o the_o member_n of_o it_o be_v visible_a i_o shall_v not_o deny_v and_o that_o she_o be_v the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n i_o do_v confess_v but_o that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v the_o true_a church_n or_o the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n because_o she_o be_v visible_a that_o i_o do_v not_o acknowledge_v but_o deny_v for_o although_o the_o true_a church_n or_o the_o member_n of_o it_o be_v visible_a yet_o so_o be_v the_o whore_n also_o but_o then_o some_o will_v say_v how_o be_v they_o then_o to_o be_v distinguish_v first_o i_o answer_v by_o their_o fruit_n as_o christ_n say_v man_n do_v not_o gather_v grape_n of_o thorn_n nor_o fig_n of_o thistle_n matth._n 7.16_o neither_o can_v one_o fountain_n send_v forth_o bitter_a water_n and_o sweet_a james_n 3.12_o nor_o a_o good_a tree_n can_v bring_v forth_o bad_a fruit_n but_o the_o visible_a church_n of_o rome_n bring_v forth_o bad_a fruit_n and_o send_v forth_o bitter_a water_n as_o the_o cruelty_n exercise_v by_o she_o and_o the_o murder_v she_o have_v act_v for_o age_n past_a testify_v and_o as_o the_o idolatry_n exercise_v in_o she_o to_o this_o day_n as_o before_o mention_v witness_v for_o such_o thing_n be_v never_o exercise_v by_o nor_o in_o the_o true_a church_n in_o christ_n nor_o the_o apostle_n day_n therefore_o though_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v visible_a yet_o her_o fruit_n testify_v that_o she_o be_v not_o the_o true_a church_n second_o again_o a._n s._n say_v and_o diabolical_o affirm_v in_o the_o second_o page_n of_o his_o pretend_a reconciler_n of_o religion_n that_o the_o true_a church_n be_v compose_v of_o both_o good_a and_o bad_a wheat_n and_o tare_n which_o i_o do_v abominate_a to_o acknowledge_v and_o be_v blasphemy_n in_o he_o to_o affirm_v for_o the_o true_a church_n be_v build_v of_o live_v stone_n 1_o pet._n 2.5_o elect_a and_o precious_a or_o as_o a._n s._n affirm_v of_o live_v believer_n but_o no_o live_a believer_n can_v be_v true_o call_v the_o bad_a nor_o the_o tare_n but_o elect_v and_o precious_a and_o all_o that_o be_v live_v or_o precious_a be_v the_o good_a therefore_o the_o true_a church_n be_v build_v of_o the_o good_a only_o three_o but_o if_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n which_o a._n s._n in_o his_o second_o page_n affirm_v be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n be_v compose_v of_o both_o good_a and_o bad_a then_o according_a to_o his_o own_o affirmation_n the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n be_v part_v good_a and_o part_v bad_a which_o be_v horrid_a blasphemy_n in_o a._n s._n to_o affirm_v oh_o gross_a darkness_n and_o confusion_n be_v thou_o a_o member_n of_o the_o church_n that_o call_v itself_o the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n oh_o dark_a dull_a gloomy_a light_n the_o lord_n god_n almighty_n bring_v all_o his_o people_n out_o of_o that_o dark_a cell_n that_o they_o may_v walk_v in_o his_o marvellous_a light_n which_o make_v all_o thing_n manifest_a of_o what_o sort_n it_o be_v four_o but_o if_o you_o say_v that_o christ_n liken_v the_o kingdom_n to_o a_o net_n that_o be_v cast_v into_o the_o sea_n which_o gather_v of_o all_o kind_n i_o answer_v he_o do_v so_o yet_o when_o it_o come_v to_o land_n there_o be_v none_o compose_v or_o gather_v into_o the_o vessel_n but_o the_o good_a only_o and_o the_o bad_a be_v cast_v away_o matth._n 13.48_o therefore_o the_o true_a church_n be_v not_o compose_v of_o both_o good_a and_o bad_a but_o of_o the_o good_a only_o five_o but_o if_o you_o object_n that_o the_o tare_n and_o wheat_n be_v both_o to_o grow_v together_o in_o the_o fleld_n i_o answer_v they_o be_v so_o until_o the_o harvest_n and_o the_o fleld_n be_v the_o world_n mat._n 23.39_o but_o the_o true_a church_n be_v not_o of_o the_o world_n joh._n 17.14_o but_o when_o the_o reaper_n be_v send_v forth_o which_o be_v the_o angel_n

church_n be_v not_o compose_v of_o both_o wheat_n and_o tare_n but_o of_o wheat_n only_o six_o farther_n if_o you_o say_v that_o there_o be_v some_o in_o the_o true_a church_n in_o the_o apostle_n

therefore_o the_o true_a church_n be_v not_o compose_v of_o both_o good_a and_o bad_a but_o of_o the_o good_a only_o but_o to_o return_v to_o the_o five_o part_n of_o a._n s._n his_o argument_n where_o he_o say_v that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v know_v to_o the_o world_n in_o her_o bishop_n pastor_n and_o believer_n etc._n etc._n and_o therefore_o she_o be_v visible_a answ_n although_o that_o prove_v her_o visible_a yet_o it_o do_v not_o prove_v she_o to_o be_v the_o true_a church_n but_o the_o contrary_a for_o the_o true_a church_n that_o be_v the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n be_v

and_o as_o all_o the_o world_n sufficient_o know_v therefore_o she_o be_v not_o the_o true_a church_n six_o the_o infallibleness_n of_o the_o true_a church_n of_o which_o christ_n be_v supreme_a head_n &_o governor_n i_o do_v not_o go_v about_o to_o deny_v but_o that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v infallible_a that_o i_o do_v deny_v for_o first_o although_o a._n s._n have_v affirm_v that_o she_o have_v always_o remain_v since_o christ_n time_n unto_o this_o day_n without_o interruption_n etc._n etc._n yet_o he_o never_o prove_v it_o neither_o can_v he_o do_v it_o for_o as_o before_o i_o

possible_o be_v the_o true_a church_n for_o the_o true_a church_n be_v interrupt_v since_o the_o resurrection_n and_o ascension_n of_o christ_n and_o yet_o remain_v as_o hereafter_o i_o shall_v show_v and_o in_o the_o apostle_n day_n her_o interruption_n begin_v and_o some_o of_o the_o apostle_n foresee_v it_o and_o say_v of_o yourselves_o shall_v man_n arise_v speak_v perverse_a thing_n act_n 20.30_o and_o when_o they_o be_v arisen_a they_o withstand_v the_o truth_n as_o janne_n and_o jambres_n withstand_v moses_n 2_o tim._n 3.8_o so_o here_o the_o interruption_n of_o the_o true_a church_n
