15. The Protestants do ingenuously confess, that they have ⟨p. 277⟩no way to end all Controversies in this life, but that we have a sufficient way so far to decide them as is necessary to the peace of the soul, of the Church, and of the Commonwealth; but no way for a final absolute Decision, till the day of Judgement. The Pastors of the Church are to be Judges, so far as they are to execute: And the Magistrates are to be Judges so far as they must execute: And every Christian hath a judgement of Discerning so far as he is to execute. But the absolute final judgement is reserved to the last day; when God will fully end our controversies.
