by_o the_o latter_a decree●_n of_o the_o same_o congregation_n under_o alexander_n the_o seven_o 1656._o sect._n 11._o his_o last_o objection_n be_v about_o the_o jesuit_n difference_n in_o matter_n of_o doctrine_n for_o he_o say_v true_o they_o not_o only_o dissent_v from_o the_o jansenist_n in_o the_o five_o know_a proposition_n but_o also_o differ_v from_o the_o dominican_n in_o two_o man_n ●oints_n the_o immaculate_a conception_n of_o our_o bless_a lady_n and_o physical_a predetermination_n sir_n this_o objection_n concern_v other_o catholic_n drs._n as_o well_o as_o the_o jesuit_n for_o they_o all_o agree_v with_o the_o jesuit_n that_o the_o five_o jansenian_a proposition_n condemn_v by_o his_o holiness_n be_v heretical_a and_o many_o of_o they_o side_n also_o with_o the_o jesuit_n against_o the_o dominican_n in_o the_o other_o two_o controversy_n yet_o under_o debate_n however_o because_o the_o jesuit_n be_v particular_o name_v by_o the_o dr._n as_o the_o chief_a

be_v since_o blast_v by_o the_o definitive_a sentence_n of_o the_o supreme_a pastor_n of_o the_o church_n the_o dr._n may_v as_o well_o have_v object_v their_o dissent_v from_o the_o calvinist_n for_o since_o his_o holiness_n his_o censure_n have_v be_v general_o receive_v by_o catholic_n all_v over_o christendom_n there_o can_v be_v no_o question_n but_o jansenisme_n be_v condemn_v by_o the_o church_n as_o well_o as_o calvinisme_n and_o be_v both_o equal_o to_o be_v esteem_v heresy_n for_o i_o suppose_v we_o all_o agree_v that_o the_o whole_a church_n can_v err_v in_o condemn_v heresy_n and_o when_o we_o say_v so_o our_o meaning_n must_v be_v not_o to_o include_v the_o opposite_a party_n or_o to_o require_v that_o they_o submit_v and_o declare_v that_o they_o believe_v contrary_a to_o what_o they_o believe_v before_o as_o the_o dr._n seem_v to_o require_v pag._n 447._o otherwise_o we_o may_v justify_v the_o arian_n and_o all_o other_o heretic_n who_o be_v rare_o know_v to_o

end_v in_o their_o church_n mere_o by_o the_o pope_n decree_n for_o to_o go_v no_o far_o this_o very_a controversy_n of_o the_o jansenist_n have_v be_v end_v by_o the_o pope_n decree_n and_o so_o

as_o well_o as_o other_o that_o have_v stand_v out_o so_o long_o at_o last_o submit_v and_o sign_v the_o formulaire_n by_o which_o they_o not_o only_o acknowledge_v the_o 5_o condemn_a proposition_n to_o be_v heretical_a but_o to_o be_v the_o very_a proposition_n of_o jansenius_n and_o do_v not_o his_o holiness_n upon_o the_o french_a king_n declaration_n of_o this_o their_o submission_n by_o a_o

do_v not_o the_o pope_n or_o at_o least_o general_a concil_n put_v a_o end_n to_o all_o controversy_n among_o catholic_n for_o example_n why_o do_v he_o not_o determine_v the_o difference_n about_o the_o immaculate_a conception_n and_o predetermination_n which_o have_v make_v so_o great_a a_o noise_n in_o the_o world_n let_v he_o first_o tell_v i_o why_o do_v not_o our_o bless_a saviour_n leave_v all_o matter_n of_o faith_n so_o clear_o express_v in_o holy_a scripture_n as_o to_o prevent_v all_o dispute_n among_o christian_n or_o why_o do_v not_o the_o first_o four_o general_a

himself_o undertake_v out_o of_o scripture_n to_o reconcile_v all_o the_o dissent_v member_n of_o his_o church_n for_o since_o all_o party_n agree_v the_o scripture_n to_o be_v infallible_a it_o be_v his_o own_o rule_n there_o can_v be_v no_o more_o certain_a way_n for_o unity_n why_o i_o say_v do_v he_o not_o then_o make_v use_n of_o this_o most_o certain_a way_n to_o keep_v unity_n in_o his_o church_n where_o we_o see_v they_o condemn_v one_o another_o of_o damnable_a error_n i_o will_v not_o take_v upon_o i_o to_o enter_v into_o the_o secret_a counsel_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o holy_a spouse_n the_o church_n or_o to_o give_v you_o the_o reason_n why_o they_o think_v fit_a to_o leave_v thing_n as_o they_o be_v but_o i_o may_v venture_v to_o guess_v why_o the_o dr._n with_o all_o his_o writing_n and_o preach_v have_v not_o yet_o nor_o never_o will_v void_a all_o controversy_n out_o of_o scripture_n for_o where_o the_o difficulty_n lie_v in_o the_o sense_n of_o scripture_n itself_o as_o it_o be_v our_o case_n let_v it_o be_v never_o so_o infallible_a there_o can_v be_v a_o less_o certain_a way_n to_o unity_n or_o more_o endless_a way_n of_o take_v up_o dispute_v then_o the_o scripture_n unless_o it_o will_v speak_v for_o itself_o and_o declare_v its_o own_o meaning_n which_o will_v never_o be_v it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o catholic_n for_o the_o pope_n or_o a_o general_n council_n can_v declare_v their_o own_o meaning_n if_o there_o be_v any_o doubt_n of_o it_o as_o it_o happen_v in_o the_o case_n of_o the_o five_o propsition_n which_o the_o jansenist_n will_v have_v draw_v into_o different_a sense_n for_o his_o holiness_n find_v a_o way_n to_o make_v they_o clear_o understand_v his_o meaning_n and_o i_o think_v there_o never_o be_v heretic_n condemn_v in_o a_o general_a council_n that_o doubt_v whether_o he_o be_v condemn_v or_o no_o as_o protestant_n doubt_n whether_o infant_n may_v be_v baptise_a whether_o bishop_n be_v de_fw-fr jure_fw-la divino_fw-la etc._n etc._n for_o all_o their_o infallible_a scripture_n to_o maintain_v scripture_n to_o be_v a_o better_a way_n to_o decide_v controversy_n than_o the_o live_a voice_n of_o the_o church_n be_v just_a as_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v contend_v that_o the_o law_n itself_o or_o god_n almighty_n be_v a_o better_a mean_n to_o end_v suit_n at_o law_n then_o the_o judge_n upon_o the_o bench_n for_o while_o the_o law_n and_o god_n almighty_a be_v silent_a unless_o the_o judge_n pronounce_v sentence_n the_o suit_n must_v of_o necessity_n be_v endless_a and_o so_o must_v all_o controversy_n in_o religion_n for_o all_o the_o infallibility_n of_o scripture_n so_o long_o as_o it_o do_v not_o explicate_v its_o own_o meaning_n and_o answer_v all_o difficulty_n as_o for_o the_o dispute_v between_o the_o jesuit_n and_o the_o dominican_n about_o predetermination_n and_o the_o immaculate_a conception_n it_o be_v strange_a such_o school_n dispute_v shall_v be_v still_o object_v against_o the_o unity_n of_o our_o church_n i_o say_v school_n dispute_v for_o so_o i_o must_v call_v they_o till_o the_o church_n please_v to_o determine_v they_o for_o the_o dr._n must_v know_v
