sentence_n &_o definition_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n by_o who_o as_o by_o the_o spouse_n of_o christ_n always_o inspire_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v to_o be_v judge_v first_o consider_v well_o these_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n in_o send_v we_o to_o the_o scripture_n say_v search_v the_o scripture_n for_o you_o think_v to_o have_v eternal_a life_n in_o they_o and_o these_o be_v they_o that_o bear_v witness_n of_o i_o mark_v well_o these_o word_n ●_o i_o say_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v but_o witness_v bearer_n to_o the_o truth_n and_o not_o the_o judge_n to_o discern_v of_o truth_n for_o judgement_n give_v belong_v not_o to_o the_o witness_n bearer_n although_o he_o be_v as_o a_o rule_n to_o lead_v and_o direct_v the_o judge_n in_o true_a

it_o and_o reform_v it_o understand_v therefore_o my_o reason_n why_o of_o necessity_n the_o church_n must_v be_v judge_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o take_v your_o pen_n and_o confute_v they_o i_o pray_v you_o if_o you_o can_v 1._o the_o first_o be_v reason_n because_o the_o write_a text_n be_v mute_a and_o dumb_a utter_v nothing_o to_o we_o from_o the_o book_n but_o only_o the_o word_n and_o not_o the_o sense_n wherein_o the_o life_n as_o it_o be_v of_o the_o scripture_n consist_v and_o what_o definitive_a sentence_n can_v such_o a_o judge_n give_v to_o over_o rule_v the_o conceit_a mind_n of_o a_o opinative_a man_n which_o have_v no_o evident_a mean_n to_o pronounce_v any_o judgement_n against_o he_o but_o only_o to_o show_v he_o a_o dumb_a sign_n in_o writing_n which_o a_o wrangler_n may_v construe_v still_o to_o his_o own_o understanding_n against_o all_o the_o world_n 2_o the_o second_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o s._n augustine_n say_v reason_n be_v very_o full_a of_o hard_a and_o deep_a anystery_n in_o so_o much_o that_o when_o honoratus_n say_v to_o he_o as_o many_o unlearned_a man_n say_v now_o a_o day_n that_o he_o understand_v it_o well_o enough_o without_o help_n of_o any_o instructor_n say_v you_o so_o say_v he_o you_o will_v not_o take_v upon_o you_o to_o understand_v such_o a_o poet_n as_o terence_n be_v well_o without_o a_o master_n and_o dare_v you_o rush_v into_o the_o holy_a scripture_n which_o be_v so_o full_a of_o divine_a mystery_n without_o a_o master_n and_o dare_v you_o rush_v into_o the_o holy_a scripture_n which_o be_v so_o full_a of_o divine_a mystery_n without_o a_o guide_n all_o heresy_n say_v he_o come_v of_o nothing_o else_o nisi_fw-la dum_fw-la scripturae_fw-la bonae_fw-la intelliguntur_fw-la non_fw-la bene_fw-la but_o while_o the_o good_a scripture_n be_v not_o well_o understand_v héerto_o also_o s._n peter_n in_o his_o second_o epistle_n cap._n 3._o bear_v witness_n say_v that_o many_o misunder_o stand_v s._n paul_n in_o many_o hard_a place_n perverse_o to_o their_o own_o perdition_n but_o than_o you_o will_v say_v the_o hard_a place_n may_v easy_o he_o understand_v by_o conference_n of_o other_o scripture_n well_o admit_v a_o chyldish_a reason_n for_o a_o word_n or_o two_o that_o because_o they_o may_v so_o be_v among_o the_o humble_a mind_a therefore_o they_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o though_o man_n be_v never_o so_o perverse_a yet_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o pose_v you_o then_o one_o question_v far_o to_o y_fw-fr e_o quick_a how_o be_v it_o possible_a to_o know_v by_o any_o conference_n of_o the_o scripture_n which_o be_v canonical_a scripture_n and_o which_o be_v not_o certain_o if_o any_o infidel_n will_v deny_v the_o old_a testament_n as_o some_o heretic_n in_o time_n past_a have_v do_v and_o i_o pray_v god_n there_o be_v not_o many_o atheist_n at_o this_o day_n in_o england_n which_o be_v far_a go_v yet_o then_o they_o yea_o if_o such_o a_o one_o shall_v deny_v all_o the_o new_a testament_n also_o we_o have_v no_o sure_a anchor_n hold_v against_o he_o but_o the_o revelation_n of_o god_n by_o tradition_n to_o his_o church_n which_o be_v the_o pyllor_n and_o sure_a stay_n of_o truth_n which_o s._n augustine_n well_o see_v think_v he_o may_v be_v bold_a to_o say_v with_o due_a reverence_n to_o god_n and_o holy_a scripture_n both_o i_o shall_v not_o believe_v the_o gospel_n except_o the_o authority_n of_o y_fw-fr e_o church_n do_v move_v i_o thereunto_o meaning_n that_o the_o tradition_n of_o the_o universal_a church_n and_o the_o testimony_n of_o all_o the_o people_n of_o god_n in_o who_o the_o holy_a ghost_n dwell_v must_v just_o move_v we_o to_o credit_n that_o which_o their_o authority_n do_v command_v we_o to_o give_v credit_n unto_o therefore_o let_v any_o man_n beware_v of_o fli_v from_o the_o church_n judgement_n to_o the_o scripture_n only_o lest_o the_o scripture_n itself_o shall_v utter_o be_v deny_v as_o by_o some_o atheist_n in_o england_n as_o i_o hear_v say_v be_v already_o and_o then_o may_v such_o infidel_n laugh_v all_o heretic_n to_o scorn_n for_o rob_v themselves_o of_o their_o own_o defence_n but_o now_o to_o return_v to_o my_o purpose_n if_o conference_n of_o one_o scripture_n with_o a_o other_o may_v give_v light_a enough_o to_o all_o man_n how_o happen_v it_o that_o all_o sect_n use_v that_o conference_n yet_o they_o can_v never_o agrre_v in_o their_o opinion_n but_o diverse_a man_n and_o all_o use_v such_o conference_n do_v yet_o construe_v it_o diverse_o the_o uttermoste_a shift_n they_o have_v be_v this_o such_o a_o weak_a one_o as_o it_o be_v that_o the_o reader_n must_v give_v himself_o to_o prayer_n for_o the_o truth_n to_o be_v reveal_v unto_o he_o wherein_o mark_v i_o pray_v you_o the_o iutollerable_a pride_n of_o arrogant_a hypocrite_n that_o they_o will_v first_o mistrust_n god_n revelation_n of_o the_o truth_n to_o his_o vniaersall_a church_n for_o the_o which_o christ_n himself_o have_v pray_v and_o promise_v to_o teach_v they_o all_o tr_fw-la 〈…〉_o most_o presumptuous_o to_o come_v and_o 〈…〉_o pt_v god_n to_o have_v that_o

always_o present_a or_o at_o jest_n by_o the_o holy_a doctor_n in_o their_o writynge_n set_v down_o yet_o they_o will_v not_o believe_v it_o nor_o harken_v unto_o it_o yet_o this_o be_v their_o course_n and_o so_o as_o they_o say_v forsooth_o they_o pray_v very_o hearty_o though_o few_o of_o they_o can_v wring_v out_o any_o tear_n in_o their_o prayer_n but_o yet_o with_o such_o a_o faith_n in_o the_o lord_n as_o their_o own_o term_n be_v that_o they_o do_v all_o very_o believe_v the_o truth_n be_v reveal_v unto_o they_o and_o yet_o perdie_o they_o must_v needs_o be_v all_o deceive_v as_o long_o as_o they_o dwell_v in_o dissension_n and_o be_v not_o in_o error_n only_o but_o one_o contrary_a to_o a_o other_o who_o now_o must_v be_v the_o judge_n to_o try_v the_o spirit_n whether_o they_o be_v of_o god_n or_o no_o but_o only_o the_o church_n or_o else_o shall_v they_o not_o be_v try_v at_o all_o but_o continual_a permission_n for_o infinite_a legion_n of_o li_a spirit_n to_o

scripture_n but_o that_o the_o scripture_n must_v be_v judge_v by_o the_o catholic_a church_n 1._o the_o first_o be_v for_o that_o the_o scripture_n be_v mute_a and_o dumb_a 2._o the_o second_o for_o

this_o reverend_a fear_n and_o honour_n only_o to_o those_o book_n of_o the_o scripture_n which_o now_o be_v call_v canonical_a that_o i_o do_v firm_o believe_v that_o none_o of_o the_o author_n of_o they_o have_v in_o write_v err_v any_o thing_n at_o all_o by_o this_o say_n of_o saint_n austin_n it_o may_v appear_v that_o he_o be_v of_o this_o mind_n that_o there_o may_v be_v error_n even_o in_o the_o decree_n of_o your_o general_a counsel_n again_o 2._o against_o the_o donatist_n saint_n austin_n write_v thus_o quis_fw-la autem_fw-la nesciat_fw-la scripturam_fw-la canonicam_fw-la etc._n etc._n who_o can_v be_v ignorant_a say_v saint_n austin_n that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o well_o of_o the_o old_a as_o of_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v contain_v within_o she_o own_o bound_n or_o lymitte_v and_o that_o the_o same_o be_v so_o prefer_v before_o all_o the_o latter_a write_n of_o bishop_n that_o concern_v it_o there_o may_v be_v no_o doubt_n or_o controversy_n at_o all_o whether_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v certain_o know_v to_o be_v write_v in_o it_o be_v true_a or_o right_o and_o the_o write_n of_o byshoppe_n which_o have_v be_v or_o be_v write_v after_o the_o confirmation_n of_o the_o canon_n may_v be_v find_v fault_n with_o if_o it_o happen_v that_o any_o thing_n therein_o do_v swerve_v from_o the_o truth_n either_o by_o more_o wise_a speech_n of_o any_o other_o that_o be_v more_o expert_a in_o that_o matter_n or_o by_o the_o more_o grave_a authority_n of_o other_o bishop_n or_o the_o wisdom_n of_o man_n better_o learn_v or_o by_o counsel_n yea_o and_o that_o the_o counsel_n themselves_o which_o be_v hold_v in_o particular_a region_n or_o province_n must_v without_o any_o doubt_n give_v place_n to_o the_o authority_n of_o full_a counsel_n which_o be_v make_v of_o the_o universal_a christian_a world_n yea_o &_o that_o the_o full_a or_o general_a counsel_n that_o be_v first_o hold_v may_v be_v amend_v by_o they_o that_o be_v hold_v afterwards_o when_o by_o any_o experience_n of_o thing_n that_o thing_n that_o before_o be_v shut_v be_v make_v open_a and_o that_o thing_n which_o lie_v hyd_fw-we be_v make_v know_v and_o this_o may_v be_v do_v without_o any_o haughtiness_n of_o sacrilegious_a pride_n without_o any_o swell_a throat_n of_o arrogancy_n without_o any_o contention_n of_o spiteful_a envy_n with_o holy_a humility_n with_o catholic_a peace_n and_o with_o christian_a charity_n thus_o far_o austin_n now_o i_o think_v you_o will_v confess_v that_o your_o catholic_a church_n may_v err_v or_o else_o that_o s._n austin_n one_o of_o the_o doctor_n of_o that_o church_n do_v err_v for_o he_o say_v that_o the_o latter_a general_a counsel_n may_v amend_v the_o former_a he_o say_v also_o that_o there_o may_v be_v no_o doubt_n or_o controversy_n about_o the_o truth_n of_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v know_v to_o be_v write_v in_o the_o canonical_a scripture_n therefore_o blame_v we_o not_o though_o we_o flee_v from_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o church_n to_o the_o scripture_n which_o can_v never_o deceive_v us._n and_o as_o touch_v that_o inconvenience_n that_o you_o do_v put_v we_o in_o mind_n of_o which_o be_v the_o deny_v of_o the_o scripture_n by_o atheist_n i_o pray_v you_o let_v i_o propone_v one_o question_n to_o you_o and_o so_o pose_v you_o as_o night_n to_o the_o quick_a as_o you_o have_v pose_v us._n what_o if_o your_o church_n shall_v utter_o be_v deny_v to_o be_v the_o church_n of_o christ_n or_o what_o if_o those_o atheist_n that_o be_v in_o england_n or_o else_o where_o shall_v deny_v that_o christ_n have_v any_o church_n at_o all_o or_o that_o there_o be_v or_o have_v be_v any_o such_o christ_n as_o we_o believe_v in_o may_v not_o those_o infidel_n think_v you_o

you_o will_v return_v to_o your_o purpose_n if_o conference_n of_o one_o scripture_n with_o a_o other_o may_v give_v light_n enough_o to_o all_o man_n how_o happen_v it_o that_o all_o sect_n use_v

james_n and_o s._n austin_n do_v allow_v of_o this_o shift_n which_o you_o do_v account_n to_o be_v so_o weak_a and_o such_o intolerable_a pride_n yea_o s._n austin_n add_v these_o word_n quis_fw-la
