What further?
That there can be no sound agreement betwixt Popery, and the profession of the Gospel; no more then betwixt light and darkness, falsehood and truth, God and Belial: and therefore no reconciliation can be devised betwixt them: for if the members of Antichrist shall be destroyed, we cannot in any sort communicate with their errors, unless we bear them company in their destruction.

Why? doth every error destroy the soul?
Why? doth euery errour destroy the soule?
No verily: for as every wound killeth not the man;1 so every error depriveth not a man of salvation: but as the vital parts being wounded or infected bring death; so those errors that destroy the fundamental points and heads of the truth, bring everlasting destruction; in which kind is popery, as that which sundrily overthroweth the principles and grounds of our holy faith; and therefore termed an apostasy, or departure from the faith.
