The marks whereby men may know in this world which is the true church of Jesus Christ, are these, to wit, the lawful administration of the pure word of God, and of his holy Sacraments, and the allowing of the same, with true obedience towards the ministry the which the Lord hath therein ordained. I do comprehend under this allowing and obedience, the submission and the discipline, the which Jesus Christ hath ordained in his Church, and the pure and full observation of the same, as it hath bin observed and practised in the ancient Church, ruled by the doctrine of the Apostles. On the contrary, the marks of the Synagogue of Satan, and of the members of the same are the contempt & rejection of the holy word, ⟨p. 52⟩and of the true usage of the Sacraments, and of the lawful discipline, which ought to serve as Christian policy, in the church of the Lord.

I do comprehende vnder this alowing and obedience, the submission and the discipline, the which Iesus Christ hath ordeyned in his Church, and the pure and full obseruation of the same, as it hath bin obserued and practised in the ancient Churche, ruled by the doctrine of the Apostles. On the contrary, the marks of the Sinagoge of Sathā, and of the members of the same are the cōtempt & reiectiō of ye holy word,
