august_n ad_fw-la januarium_fw-la there_o be_v no_o better_a rule_n in_o this_o behalf_n say_v he_o than_o a_o wise_a and_o sober_a christian_a himself_o which_o will_v frame_v himself_o to_o that_o

wherefore_o we_o do_v whole_o and_o altogether_o renounce_v and_o forsake_v the_o same_o and_o in_o this_o deed_n of_o we_o we_o follow_v the_o example_n of_o the_o prophet_n for_o in_o the_o

papist_n be_v this_o that_o we_o must_v always_o doubt_v whether_o we_o be_v in_o the_o grace_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n wherefore_o they_o can_v not_o have_v union_n or_o fellowship_n with_o he_o furthermore_o this_o be_v to_o be_v mark_v that_o there_o be_v no_o union_n or_o agreement_n between_o the_o doctrine_n of_o papist_n and_o the_o word_n of_o god_n whereupon_o it_o follow_v that_o

will_v object_v further_o you_o hold_v indeed_o that_o baptism_n minister_v in_o the_o romish_a church_n be_v true_a baptism_n why_o then_o do_v you_o not_o hold_v this_o church_n for_o the_o true_a church_n i_o answer_v that_o this_o reason_n be_v very_o weak_a for_o we_o do_v not_o acknowledge_v the_o assembly_n of_o heretic_n for_o the_o true_a church_n although_o we_o cease_v not_o to_o allow_v the_o baptism_n minister_v amongst_o they_o for_o true_a and_o profitable_a even_o as_o the_o council_n of_o carthage_n decree_v the_o same_o because_o that_o baptism_n be_v always_o the_o baptism_n of_o christ_n and_o not_o of_o heretic_n although_o it_o be_v minister_v by_o heretic_n who_o have_v notwithstanding_o some_o vocation_n and_o allowance_n of_o the_o people_n wherein_o let_v

to_o be_v mark_v that_o though_o it_o be_v administer_v by_o heretic_n in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n and_o of_o the_o son_n and_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n it_o ought_v to_o be_v reverent_o
