ANSWERE.

God hath neither decreed, nor foretold, that there shall be alwayes a company of men free from all errour in it selfe damnable: Neither is it alwayes of necessity Schismaticall, to separate from the externall communion of a Church though wanting nothing necessary. For if this Church sup∣posed to want nothing necessary, require me to professe a∣gainst my conscience, that I belieue some errour though ne∣uer so small and innocent, which I do not belieue, & will not allow me her communion but vpon this condition: In this case, the Church, for requiring this condition, is Schismati∣call, and not I for separating from the Church.
