20. Of the authoritie of the Church.
THe Church hath power to decree Rites or Cere∣monies, and authoritie in controversies of faith: And yet it is not lawfull for the Church to ordaine any thing that is contrary to Gods Word written, neither may it so expound one place of Scripture, that it be repugnant to an other. Wherefore al∣though the Church be a witnes and a keeper of holy Writ, yet as it ought not to decree any thing against the same, so besides the same ought it not to enforce any thing to be beleeved for necessitie of salvation.
