And published to admonish such as decline to papistrie of the weake and vncertaine grounds, whereupon they haue ventured their soules. Directed to all that seeke for resolution: and especially to his louing countrimen of Lancashire. By Iohn White minister of Gods word at Eccles.

be_v the_o ancient_a catholic_a faith_n without_o any_o change_n i_o answer_v that_o both_o the_o proposition_n be_v false_a the_o first_o because_o many_o time_n the_o truth_n have_v be_v change_v into_o error_n where_o the_o circumstance_n mention_v can_v be_v give_v the_o second_o because_o in_o many_o thing_n hold_v by_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n at_o this_o day_n we_o can_v out_o of_o

in_o order_n and_o so_o confirm_v it_o reduce_v every_o thing_n to_o one_o of_o the_o proposition_n whereto_o it_o belong_v 3_o first_o he_o require_v we_o to_o show_v some_o space_n of_o time_n wherein_o the_o roman_a church_n be_v not_o visible_o know_v ever_o since_o christ_n as_o he_o can_v show_v many_o hundred_o year_n wherein_o our_o church_n be_v not_o this_o demand_n be_v satisfy_v already_o in_o the_o 47._o sect_n and_o shall_v be_v further_o answer_v in_o that_o which_o follow_v where_o that_o which_o he_o say_v to_o prove_v it_o be_v disprove_v and_o though_o the_o

appear_v 4_o next_o he_o bid_v we_o show_v when_o the_o roman_a church_n fail_v in_o the_o profession_n of_o the_o ancient_a faith_n which_o once_o it_o have_v rom._n 1.8_o and_o who_o begin_v the_o

that_o religion_n the_o author_n whereof_o be_v unknown_a shall_v be_v justify_v under_o pretence_n that_o we_o show_v not_o the_o precise_a circumstance_n of_o the_o alteration_n for_o we_o give_v sound_a and_o sufficient_a reason_n why_o we_o need_v not_o do_v it_o and_o to_o prepare_v the_o jesuite_n and_o his_o partaker_n to_o the_o hear_n thereof_o i_o propound_v plutarch_n propound_v plutarch_n that_o famous_a problem_n which_o in_o time_n past_o the_o greek_n debate_v so_o curious_o the_o ship_n argos_n wherein_o jason_n sail_v for_o the_o golden_a fleece_n at_o his_o return_n

thus_o i_o have_v sufficient_o show_v that_o forsomuch_o as_o we_o find_v the_o romish_a faith_n to_o be_v against_o the_o scripture_n we_o have_v just_o condemn_v it_o as_o heresy_n against_o the_o

another_o issue_n with_o our_o adversary_n about_o the_o second_o proposition_n wherein_o the_o jesuite_n you_o see_v with_o much_o confidence_n assume_v it_o that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o proof_n make_v of_o any_o time_n or_o person_n wherein_o his_o church_n alter_v the_o ancient_a faith_n he_o bid_v we_o show_v who_o bring_v in_o the_o profession_n of_o a_o new_a faith_n and_o when_o the_o

induction_n of_o all_o age_n in_o the_o former_a section_n only_o we_o say_v the_o number_n both_o of_o pastor_n and_o people_n decay_v daily_o through_o the_o pope_n tyranny_n that_o after_o eight_o hundred_o year_n be_v expire_v increase_v exceed_o and_o oppress_v the_o true_a servant_n of_o christ_n which_o oppression_n use_v against_o the_o saint_n join_v with_o his_o strong_a delusion_n and_o

can_v not_o the_o one_o half_a come_v to_o our_o ear_n that_o live_v now_o so_o long_o after_o they_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n therefore_o to_o say_v the_o pastor_n be_v asleep_a and_o see_v it_o not_o when_o the_o enemy_n first_o meditate_a and_o devise_v the_o point_n of_o papistry_n that_o be_v sow_v and_o another_o to_o think_v they_o be_v all_o asleep_a when_o it_o grow_v up_o and_o show_v itself_o the_o former_a we_o grant_v the_o late_a we_o utter_o deny_v again_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o say_v the_o world_n be_v asleep_a when_o the_o pastor_n give_v warning_n and_o another_o thing_n to_o hold_v the_o pastor_n be_v all_o asleep_a that_o shall_v give_v warning_n this_o late_a be_v but_o the_o jesuite_n conceit_n for_o we_o never_o say_v it_o the_o former_a be_v the_o truth_n and_o he_o can_v disprove_v it_o whence_o it_o follow_v that_o still_o the_o holy_a ghost_n perform_v his_o office_n and_o evermore_o lead_v the_o catholic_a church_n into_o all_o truth_n and_o give_v it_o warning_n of_o error_n and_o suggest_v the_o word_n of_o christ_n unto_o it_o but_o the_o papacy_n be_v not_o that_o church_n who_o child_n have_v no_o ear_n to_o hear_v and_o

the_o sacrament_n and_o image_n shall_v be_v no_o small_a matter_n but_o we_o affirm_v that_o these_o great_a corruption_n and_o all_o the_o rest_n whatsoever_o come_v in_o first_o one_o after_o
