sinner_n while_o they_o continue_v in_o their_o sin_n if_o they_o believe_v the_o judicial_a authority_n of_o the_o priest_n to_o forgive_v sin_n for_o they_o every_o day_n absolve_v man_n who_o do_v

to_o holiness_n of_o life_n not_o only_o because_o he_o have_v now_o buy_v we_o with_o his_o own_o blood_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v no_o long_o live_v unto_o ourselves_o but_o to_o he_o who_o

this_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n seem_v very_o sensible_a of_o that_o none_o but_o sincere_a penitent_n and_o true_o good_a man_n can_v be_v save_v by_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n upon_o the_o

of_o expiate_a sin_n which_o give_v more_o comfort_n to_o sinner_n the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n have_v a_o distinct_a virtue_n and_o merit_n from_o the_o sacrifice_n upon_o the_o cross_n it_o

which_o be_v not_o expiate_v by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n upon_o the_o cross_n be_v expiate_v by_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n and_o that_o by_o the_o bear_n opus_fw-la operatum_fw-la by_o the_o offering_n this_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n itself_o without_o any_o good_a motion_n in_o the_o person_n for_o who_o it_o be_v offer_v and_o thus_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n

thus_o i_o be_o sure_a all_o man_n understand_v it_o or_o they_o will_v never_o put_v their_o confidence_n in_o the_o mass-sacrifice_n for_o if_o it_o do_v no_o more_o for_o we_o than_o christ_n

in_o by_o baptism_n and_o till_o we_o be_v restore_v to_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n again_o we_o must_v be_v eternal_o damn_v because_o we_o have_v no_o right_n to_o the_o sacrifice_n and_o expiation_n of_o christ_n death_n the_o only_a way_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n to_o restore_v we_o to_o this_o state_n of_o grace_n be_v by_o the_o sacrament_n of_o penance_n and_o the_o
