to_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o school-man_n he_o say_v again_o no_o it_o respect_v the_o authority_n and_o here_o he_o do_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d for_o he_o offer_v no_o reason_n why_o it_o

keep_v up_o and_o uphold_v the_o truth_n he_o say_v also_o it_o suit_v well_o with_o his_o sense_n to_o give_v order_n to_o timothy_n to_o carry_v himself_o well_o that_o the_o church_n may_v be_v think_v to_o be_v infallible_a so_o as_o not_o to_o make_v man_n believe_v it_o improbable_a that_o god_n shall_v assist_v infallible_o such_o a_o church_n ans_fw-fr the_o strength_n of_o this_o

idolater_n be_v assist_v with_o infallibility_n well_o but_o let_v they_o first_o take_v my_o sense_n with_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o schoolman_n and_o so_o compare_v they_o with_o his_o reason_n which_o be_v but_o a_o pitiful_a argument_n and_o then_o judge_v whether_o it_o be_v not_o best_o to_o take_v my_o account_n upon_o the_o place_n second_o if_o badness_n of_o life_n be_v a_o

he_o say_v shall_v be_v so_o qualify_v by_o the_o order_n of_o st_n paul_n to_o and_o for_o the_o credit_n of_o such_o a_o church_n he_o do_v not_o there_o find_v in_o st._n paul_n epistle_n any_o

since_o infallible_a assistance_n be_v immediate_a he_o answer_v here_o this_o be_v a_o strange_a consequence_n the_o church_n be_v infallible_a in_o defend_v point_n in_o a_o general_a council_n ergo_fw-la no_o man_n need_v instruction_n for_o his_o private_a good_a behaviour_n ans_fw-fr but_o first_o the_o instruction_n he_o give_v to_o timothy_n be_v such_o as_o respect_v he_o in_o his_o

the_o mystery_n of_o godliness_n etc._n etc._n second_o by_o my_o adversary_n opinion_n there_o be_v no_o such_o need_n of_o instruction_n for_o a_o private_a life_n since_o it_o be_v a_o pitiful_a argument_n to_o derogate_v from_o infallibility_n by_o a_o bad_a life_n three_o neither_o be_v timothy_n i_o hope_v in_o their_o account_n a_o private_a man_n after_o this_o he_o have_v two_o

and_o therefore_o shall_v seem_v to_o be_v univocal_a to_o it_o and_o then_o we_o say_v two_o thing_n first_o he_o suppose_v that_o which_o be_v to_o be_v prove_v that_o the_o church_n in_o that_o

from_o hence_o it_o shall_v follow_v that_o if_o the_o church_n be_v infallible_a it_o may_v be_v infallible_a without_o council_n and_o this_o be_v against_o he_o another_o question_n be_v this_o or_o do_v we_o perhaps_o teach_v this_o infallible_a assistance_n to_o be_v communicate_v to_o every_o one_o immediate_o ans_fw-fr he_o speak_v grave_o as_o ancient_a man_n be_v wont_a with_o a_o
