For what can bee more impertinent and praeposterous, then when the question is concerning Doctrine and Discipline, whereby a true Church may be discerned from a false; to intangle the businesse with personall circumstances, and knots of storie, and Chronology, which either for want of certaine evidence may proue vndeterminable; or cleared to the vtmost, make nothing to the purpose? For, suppose we had no certainty of our predecessours before Luther, (as our opposites haue alwaies taken the strictest course that we should not) is it not sufficient wee finde by the vndoubted word of God, wee are in the right? from which, all Churches had their originall, (as their owne Marinarius tells them roundly in the Councell of Trent ) and must be reformed when corruptions grow intollerable. |
