how_o and_o by_o what_o authority_n do_v we_o separate_v from_o that_o church_n if_o the_o power_n of_o interpret_n scripture_n be_v in_o every_o man_n brain_n what_o need_n have_v we_o of_o a_o church_n or_o churchman_n to_o what_o purpose_n then_o do_v our_o saviour_n after_o he_o have_v give_v his_o apostle_n power_n to_o bind_v and_o loose_v in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n add_v to_o it_o that_o he_o will_v be_v with_o they_o even_o to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n these_o word_n be_v not_o speak_v parabolical_o or_o by_o way_n of_o figure_n christ_n be_v then_o ascend_v into_o his_o glory_n and_o leave_v his_o power_n with_o his_o church_n even_o to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n all_o this_o the_o answerer_n leave_v out_o what_o relate_v to_o the_o church_n authority_n and_o every_o man_n follow_v his_o own_o judgement_n have_v he_o say_v be_v answer_v already_o i_o wish_v he_o have_v tell_v we_o where_o for_o though_o i_o remember_v some_o speech_n of_o person_n who_o separate_v from_o the_o church_n and_o of_o their_o pretence_n i_o can_v call_v one_o word_n to_o mind_n of_o the_o authority_n by_o which_o they_o separate_v if_o this_o be_v the_o answer_n

every_o man_n be_v to_o judge_v for_o himself_o though_o not_o for_o other_o what_o need_v then_o of_o a_o church_n or_o church_n man_n say_v his_o majesty_n when_o every_o body_n be_v provide_v without_o they_o it_o seem_v he_o think_v they_o be_v indeed_o needless_a but_o have_v no_o mind_n to_o say_v so_o he_o take_v the_o matter_n of_o appeal_n more_o to_o heart_n in_o which_o he_o take_v occasion_n to_o proceed_v from_o these_o word_n what_o country_n can_v subsist_v in_o peace_n or_o quiet_a where_o there_o be_v not_o a_o supreme_a judge_n from_o whence_o there_o can_v be_v no_o

comparison_n here_o make_v a_o national_a to_o the_o whole_a church_n be_v as_o a_o shire_n to_o a_o kingdom_n and_o a_o very_a natural_a and_o very_o consistent_a consequence_n it_o be_v that_o every_o sheriff_n shall_v be_v a_o king_n but_o how_o come_v appeal_n to_o a_o foreign_a jurisdiction_n to_o tend_v to_o the_o peace_n and_o quiet_a of_o a_o church_n he_o will_v peradventure_o if_o

signify_v out_o so_o that_o unless_o the_o ultimate_a jurisdiction_n of_o the_o church_n be_v out_o of_o the_o church_n it_o seem_v as_o hard_a to_o understand_v how_o it_o can_v be_v foreign_a to_o any_o part_n of_o the_o church_n as_o how_o a_o native_a of_o any_o part_n of_o england_n can_v be_v a_o foreigner_n in_o england_n the_o several_a nation_n which_o make_v the_o church_n be_v

let_v this_o pass_v and_o the_o answerer_n if_o he_o please_v inform_v we_o how_o the_o appeal_v of_o which_o we_o talk_v can_v be_v make_v but_o to_o what_o he_o call_v foreign_a jurisdiction_n the_o king_n aim_v at_o a_o end_n of_o difference_n in_o religion_n and_o as_o he_o think_v every_o one_o ought_v believe_v as_o the_o catholic_a church_n believe_v which_o christ_n have_v here_o on_o earth_n call_v their_o agreement_n in_o faith_n a_o decision_n and_o know_v or_o search_v what_o it_o be_v a_o appeal_n as_o no_o particular_a can_v be_v the_o catholic_a church_n let_v he_o make_v it_o intelligible_a who_o can_v how_o the_o faith_n of_o a_o church_n compose_v of_o many_o nation_n can_v be_v know_v without_o know_v the_o faith_n of_o the_o nation_n which_o compose_v it_o that_o be_v of_o those_o church_n which_o he_o call_v foreign_a it_o be_v therefore_o so_o far_o from_o hard_a to_o comprehend_v how_o appeal_n to_o foreigner_n tend_v to_o the_o peace_n and_o quiet_a of_o a_o national_a church_n that_o when_o that_o peace_n be_v disturb_v by_o dissension_n in_o matter_n of_o religion_n it_o be_v absolute_o impossible_a to_o resettle_v it_o without_o they_o we_o say_v
