The Church Is In Christ, As Eve

See We Not Plainly That Obedience Of Creatures Unto The Law Of Nature Is The Stay Of The Whole World?

God Is No Captious Sophister, Eager To Trip Us Up Whenever We Say Amiss, But A Courteous Tutor, Ready To Amend What, In Our Weakness Or Our Ignorance, We Say Ill, And To Make The Most Of What We Say Aright.

Of Two Evils We Take The Less.

For Men To Be Tied And Led By Authority, As It Were With A Kind Of Captivity Of Judgment, And Though There Be Reason To The Contrary Not To Listen Unto It, But To Follow Like Beasts The First In The Herd, They Know Not, Nor Care Not Whither, This Were Brutish.

The Reason Why The Simpler Sort Are Moved By Authority Is The Consciousness Of Their Own Ignorance
