ambiguous_a whether_o it_o be_v a_o divine_a revelation_n or_o no_o then_o to_o institute_n a_o strict_a inquiry_n whether_o it_o be_v true_o and_o real_o attest_v by_o divine_a authority_n or_o no_o be_v a_o act_n of_o prudence_n and_o therefore_o not_o dangerous_a but_o secure_a and_o laudable_a but_o how_o shall_v we_o know_v assure_o whether_o it_o be_v a_o divine_a revelation_n or_o not_o first_o i_o answer_v that_o no_o new_a revelation_n be_v to_o be_v admit_v but_o such_o as_o be_v contain_v in_o holy_a writ_n in_o the_o canonical_a scripture_n second_o i_o answer_v that_o if_o the_o mystery_n propose_v drive_v we_o to_o such_o extremity_n that_o no_o assent_n can_v be_v give_v to_o it_o without_o deny_v some_o one_o of_o the_o prima_fw-la principia_fw-la lumine_fw-la

doctrine_n not_o contain_v in_o scripture_n or_o if_o it_o be_v evident_o inconsistent_a with_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n in_o both_o case_n it_o come_v not_o from_o god_n but_o be_v a_o mere_a human_a invention_n and_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o believe_v by_o divine_a faith_n that_o which_o be_v back_v only_o by_o human_a authority_n as_o for_o the_o difficulty_n of_o scripture_n those_o which_o be_v seem_v contradiction_n be_v most_o historical_a and_o be_v solve_v by_o those_o author_n who_o ex_fw-la professo_fw-la have_v write_v so_o many_o large_a tome_n of_o the_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n other_o mystery_n which_o be_v speculative_a and_o doctrinal_a as_o a_o virgin_n to_o conceive_v the_o incarnation_n of_o the_o divine_a word_n and_o the_o hypostatical_a union_n the_o mystery_n of_o the_o sacred_a trinity_n etc._n etc._n there_o be_v no_o one_o of_o all_o these_o that_o be_v destructive_a of_o the_o light_n of_o human_a reason_n or_o that_o will_v reduce_v we_o to_o a_o necessity_n of_o deny_v the_o truth_n of_o any_o of_o the_o first_o principle_n since_o therefore_o we_o admit_v of_o all_o canonical_a scripture_n as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n we_o ought_v to_o believe_v it_o by_o divine_a faith_n for_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o as_o god_n infinite_a veracity_n be_v uncapable_a of_o assert_v such_o thing_n as_o be_v impossible_a so_o likewise_o by_o the_o same_o rule_n god_n who_o be_v the_o author_n of_o human_a reason_n be_v uncapable_a of_o impose_v upon_o man_n understanding_n a_o necessity_n of_o believe_v that_o which_o be_v false_a or_o impossible_a for_o if_o false_a it_o be_v destructive_a of_o his_o veracity_n which_o will_v un-god_n he_o if_o impossible_a it_o be_v inconsistent_a with_o human_a reason_n and_o yet_o all_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v grant_v to_o the_o divine_a omnipotence_n that_o involve_v not_o a_o manifest_a contradiction_n and_o this_o may_v serve_v as_o a_o reply_n to_o the_o answer_n of_o the_o aforementioned_a doctor_n i_o shall_v therefore_o proceed_v in_o order_n to_o examine_v the_o controvert_v difficulty_n which_o this_o treatise_n contain_v as_o they_o be_v digest_v under_o their_o respective_a head_n whereof_o each_o have_v his_o peculiar_a disputation_n and_o the_o disputation_n i_o subdivide_v into_o section_n in_o the_o second_o disputation_n of_o this_o treatise_n i_o have_v insert_v most_o of_o the_o ancient_a ritual_n and_o liturgy_n of_o the_o latin_a greek_a and_o the_o eastern_a church_n which_o morinus_n translate_v out_o of_o the_o greek_a and_o syrian_a into_o latin_a and_o as_o this_o translator_n be_v tie_v to_o give_v the_o literal_a sense_n of_o the_o original_n without_o mutation_n so_o also_o i_o deem_v it_o illegal_a to_o make_v any_o change_n or_o alteration_n in_o the_o latin_a version_n which_o in_o some_o place_n be_v obscure_a and_o obsolete_a but_o i_o have_v render_v the_o true_a and_o genuine_a sense_n
