The first is, that many people in our land, are known to hold the Sacraments not rightly and sufficiently administered or received without them. For the force of such an opinion in the multitude, many testimonies are alleged in the Abridgement, and applied unto this assertion, not in deed to prove the same simply, but to show what is the consequence of it. All these the Def. left out, and the Rej. had no mind to take them in, but chose rather to rest in this: they are no proofs of the assumption. It was added by the Repl. the opinion even of a few, may make some action unlawful, which the opinion of many other cannot make lawful. 1. Cot. 10.28. To avoid this, the Rejoinder had nothing material to say, before he had changed unlawful into simply unlawful.
