CHA P.2. Epiflle tatbaTbeff'lonians: V E R.IZ. fetled, from apprehenfion of probabilitie in the propoGti- on opined; yet not without feare, leaft the contradiEtory be more true. As in 'T emporaries,cj`knat.z ;.a t.. 4 Faith, wherein is firmenefl'e of Afrent and perfwafi on that the do trine taught is vndoubtedly true. And of this nature , is that which is here made ifiue of firong delufion. z Whereto if.be added Refolued adherence, yce bane the full and entire general! nature of faith.... And its appli- cable as well to fal(hood as to truth; whence, fai th,accor- ding,to the double obiec`t,is made two -fold : t Falfe faith, when the matter or thing belieued is falfe ; then be the perfw afion neuer fo firme, yet the faith is falfe,though not in the aEt,yet in the obiea. z True Faith, when the obieEt is true ; and the of ent and adherence firme and vnwa- uering. The miferie of. Papifts here pointed is, that they be- lieue a lye. A mierie indeed, when God giues ouer a man to be faliFie3 in his Faith : i Into what a enormi- ties of linful praaife, Both blinde zeale for fuppofed truth, tranfport many ? z What wonderfull f paines take fuch to goe to Hell? Once fallen the perfwalon, that its lawfull or men tori- ous to murther Heretiques, they spare not Kings., the Lords annointed. Settle them in beliefe, that Faith plight to Heretiquesneedesnot be kept : fwearing, forfwearing is not fcrupied, dummodo ob Rema Quid multa: I doe not think Papitis fnne all as Pauls monifhtHeretiques,s áu770 xra4sros: ratherasPauls feife before Conuerfion;hthink- ing they ought to do,what they doe againf the caufe oftruth. But fuch are the fruits of falfified faith. The more ,heedfull flank' we be againft caufes and nseanes of it. Thus you may number them. i Shut we our eyes againft light, our hearts to loue of Truth ? Its Tuft with God, to give ouer to beliefe of lyes. z And why fo flightfully regatd we euidences or authorities brought to auouch do f rines as being de fide ? Are Churches, Coun- cels, Popes Authentique, of f lfe credit ? of moat Faith be refolued A&ts 16.9. Iahe r6.z. IRV' 8.z6 t Tir.3.t0. h Aas 259.
