before_o satisfaction_n and_o although_o some_o have_v complain_v of_o this_o as_o a_o great_a abuse_n yet_o they_o have_v be_v sharp_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v to_o call_v in_o question_n the_o

3._o the_o obligation_n to_o confession_n be_v very_o different_a from_o what_o it_o be_v in_o the_o ancient_a exomologesis_fw-la now_o by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n a_o

the_o exomologesis_fw-la for_o every_o mortal_a sin_n there_o be_v no_o penitential_a canon_n which_o do_v ever_o require_v it_o but_o they_o have_v respect_n to_o some_o particular_a sin_n and_o the_o penance_n be_v proportion_v to_o they_o we_o ought_v to_o take_v notice_n of_o two_o thing_n with_o respect_n to_o the_o discipline_n of_o the_o ancient_a church_n which_o will_v show_v the_o different_a notion_n it_o have_v of_o these_o thing_n from_o what_o be_v now_o current_a in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n 1._o that_o it_o do_v not_o exclude_v those_o from_o all_o hope_n of_o

they_o etc._n think_v uncapable_a of_o salvation_n from_o whence_o it_o follow_v that_o they_o do_v not_o look_v on_o confession_n and_o absolution_n as_o a_o necessary_a condition_n of_o salvation_n but_o now_o in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n they_o allow_v confession_n to_o all_o because_o they_o think_v they_o can_v otherwise_o be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o salvation_n in_o a_o ordinary_a way_n but_o in_o the_o ancient_a church_n they_o can_v not_o look_v on_o the_o desire_n of_o confession_n as_o necessary_a for_o to_o what_o purpose_n shall_v they_o make_v that_o necessary_a when_o they_o deny_v the_o thing_n but_o in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n they_o make_v the_o desire_n necessary_a because_o they_o hold_v the_o thing_n itself_o to_o be_v so_o if_o there_o be_v mean_n to_o have_v it_o 2._o that_o the_o penitential_a canon_n never_o extend_v in_o the_o primitive_a church_n to_o all_o those_o sin_n which_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n now_o account_v mortal_a and_o therefore_o

of_o the_o person_n and_o by_o other_o circumstance_n which_o the_o casuist_n set_v down_o at_o large_a now_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n do_v express_o oblige_v man_n not_o only_o to_o relate_v

i_o need_v not_o take_v any_o pain_n to_o prove_v it_o if_o any_o one_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o be_v satisfy_v he_o may_v see_v it_o in_o gregory_n nyssen'_n canonical_a epistle_n where_o he_o own_v
