either_o direct_o or_o indirect_o it_o deny_v the_o true_a god_n for_o either_o it_o deny_v some_o thing_n in_o god_n and_o then_o it_o direct_o deny_v god_n or_o it_o deny_v some_o thing_n which_o pertain_v unto_o god_n and_o so_o indirect_o and_o by_o a_o certain_a consequeace_n it_o take_v away_o the_o true_a god_n as_o for_o example_n the_o marcionite_n affirm_v that_o god_n be_v cruel_a

see_v that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o god_n who_o be_v cruel_a or_o who_o be_v not_o the_o creator_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n they_o deny_v the_o true_a god_n and_o confess_v a_o idol_n of_o their_o

because_o the_o true_a god_n be_v not_o distincte_n in_o nature_n from_o god_n the_o son_n and_o they_o adore_v a_o idol_n of_o their_o own_o imagination_n that_o be_v a_o god_n who_o have_v no_o

so_o can_v not_o be_v say_v directe_o to_o deny_v the_o true_a god_n but_o yet_o indirect_o they_o deny_v he_o by_o deny_v some_o verity_n which_o have_v a_o connexion_n with_o he_o as_o for_o example_n novatianus_n who_n say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o remedy_n against_o sin_n after_o baptism_n direct_o only_o deny_v the_o sacrament_n of_o penance_n but_o yet_o indirect_o and_o by_o a_o certain_a consequence_n he_o deny_v god_n because_o it_o be_v not_o a_o true_a god_n which_o will_v not_o accept_v of_o penance_n after_o baptism_n and_o therefore_o see_v that_o he_o confess_v only_o such_o a_o god_n he_o adore_v a_o false_a god_n and_o so_o be_v a_o idolator_n nestorius_n also_o who_v say_v that_o in_o christ_n beside_o the_o divine_a person_n there_o be_v also_o a_o human_a person_n and_o consequent_o twoe_n person_n direct_o deny_v the_o unity_n of_o christ_n person_n and_o affirm_v twoe_n person_n in_o christ_n but_o indirect_o he_o deny_v christ_n and_o consequent_o god_n because_o christ_n be_v god_n and_o man_n in_o one_o &_o the_o self_n same_o person_n and_o therefore_o he_o adore_v a_o christ_n consist_v of_o twoe_n person_n adore_v a_o false_a christ_n

and_o he_o allege_v aristotle_n for_o more_o authority_n god_n be_v a_o thing_n infinite_a in_o perfection_n yet_o so_o simple_a and_o devoide_a of_o composition_n that_o in_o he_o be_v no_o

no_o part_n so_o our_o understanding_n either_o right_o attain_v unto_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n or_o not_o at_o all_o and_o if_o it_o err_v in_o one_o perfection_n of_o god_n it_o err_v in_o all_o because_o all_o be_v one_o and_o so_o if_o a_o heretic_n deni_v any_o thing_n of_o god_n he_o deny_v all_o but_o although_o all_o heretic_n be_v in_o some_o fort_n idolatour_n yet_o i_o will_v
