bind_v or_o how_o can_v i_o be_v say_v to_o believe_v implicit_o their_o unknown_a doctrine_n or_o article_n of_o faith_n what_o be_v my_o implicit_a belief_n of_o scripture-particle_n but_o my_o

mark_v how_o much_o these_o man_n magnify_v themselves_o and_o how_o much_o they_o vilify_v the_o word_n and_o work_n of_o god_n let_v a_o man_n see_v all_o god_n wonderful_a goodness_n in_o his_o

god_n or_o man_n but_o let_v he_o but_o add_v the_o belief_n that_o the_o pope_n be_v the_o governor_n of_o all_o the_o earth_n and_o that_o he_o and_o his_o council_n must_v be_v believe_v in_o all_o their_o tradition_n and_o exposition_n and_o then_o the_o work_n will_v be_v do_v and_o he_o may_v love_n god_n unseigned_o and_o be_v love_v by_o he_o the_o holy_a ghost_n will_v not_o work_v by_o the_o scripture_n unless_o we_o take_v the_o pope_n for_o the_o expositor_n yea_o more_o if_o a_o man_n never_o hear_v of_o scripture_n or_o if_o he_o believe_v not_o in_o christ_n for_o want_v of_o the_o pope_n sufficient_a proposal_n he_o may_v love_n god_n and_o be_v save_v so_o he_o do_v but_o believe_v that_o the_o pope_n with_o his_o council_n be_v a_o sufficient_a proposer_n and_o be_v there_o any_o account_n in_o reason_n to_o be_v give_v of_o this_o strange_a phaenomenon_n why_o a_o man_n can_v love_n god_n if_o he_o believe_v in_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n and_o yet_o can_v love_v he_o by_o all_o his_o work_n and_o mercy_n with_o the_o belief_n of_o all_o the_o scripture_n or_o be_v it_o as_o very_o a_o miracle_n as_o transubstantiation_n and_o sanctification_n by_o

again_o the_o threadbare_a reason_n have_v they_o this_o they_o will_v never_o have_v disobey_v and_o disbelieved_a all_o the_o church_n in_o the_o world_n answ._n that_o be_v the_o pope_n and_o his_o
