Furthermore he will that women shall learn of their husbands at home: How shall their husbands learn them if they be unlearned themselves? Also S. Paul giveth testimony of 1Timothy that he was learned in holy scriptures, from his childhood, the which were able to instruct him unto salvation, by faith that is in Christ Jesus. Here you not how Timothy was learned in holy scriptures before he was either priest or bishop, yea being but a child? the which as S. Paul saith, were able to instruct him, and you say they be able to condemn men. Is not this clean contrary against S. Paul: are you not ashamed? What works shall Antichrist do more contrary to Christ than these be? let all christen 2men write the deeds of Antichrist & they must all agree in this that he shall condemn scripture. But that shall be not do, without some colour of right and of holiness: and you condemn it having no colour, nor no shadow of holiness, but all only reason of fleshliness, and of stark madness. Think you if the great Turk would receive such reasons as yours be, yea and a great deal better against his Mahomet, that he could reign so ⟨p. 286⟩long as he hath done.
