The method which the nature of the Cause requireth me now to use, in my answer to you, shall be in the manifesting these following Propositions.
Prop. 1. That if it could not by us be proved that every word of the Scripture is true, nor the pen men infallible or indefectible in every particle, yet might we have a certainty of the Christian Religion.
Prop. 2. That yet all that is in the ⟨p. 11⟩Scriptures as the word of God is certainly true; and no error or contradiction can be proved in it, but what is in some Copies by the fault of Printers, Transcribers or Translators.
Prop. 3. That he that first proveth the Truth of the Christian Faith by solid evidence, may and ought to be certain of that truth, though he be not able to solve all seeming contradictions in the Scripture, or answer all objections which occur.
Prop. 3. That he that first proveth the Truth of the Christian Faith by solid evidence, may and ought to be certain of that truth, though he be not able to solve all soeming contradictions in the Scripture, or answer all objections which occurre.
