1. _Because this cannot be proved to have been a lawful General Council with so much certainty, as is necessary for the ground of his Faith, as appears by those many questions mentioned by Mr._ Chillingworth, Stillingfleet, _and other Protestants, wherein he must first be satisfied, concerning it._ 2. _Because, though it were a General Council, yet it might err even in necessaries, if it were not universally accepted; as he can shew it was not._ 3. _That, though yielded to be generally accepted, it might err still in non-necessaries; and that Protestants cannot prove this point to be otherwise._ 4. _That the Leaders of this Council were plainly a party contesting this, for many years before, with the other side condemned by them; and were Judges in their own cause._ 5. _All these exceptions cancelled, and Obedience granted due to this Council; yet, that so, there is due to it not that of_ assent, _but only of_ silence. §. 19. 6. _But yet not that of silence neither from him; considering his present perswasion, that indeed the affirmative in this point is an error_ manifest _and_ intolerable: _concerning which matter his party having long complained to their Superiors, and produced sufficient evidence; yet these have proceeded to no redress of it._ §. 20. 7. _But yet that he will submit to the Judgment of a future Council, if it, rightly considering the reasons of his tenent, decree that which is according to God's Word, and he be convinced thereof._ §. 22. §. 18. 3. _Prot._ But do you not consider by what persons this Article was long ago inserted into the Creed: Namely, by the _first General_, and the most venerable Assembly of the _Fathers_ of the Church that hath been convened since the _Apostles_ times; celebrated under the _first Christian_ Emperor by a perfect Representative of the Catholick Church; and by such persons, as came very much purified out of the newly-quenched fire of the greatest persecution that the Church hath suffered, that under _Dioclesian_; will not you then at least submit your judgment to the Decree of this great and Holy Council; one and the first of those four which St. _Gregory_ said he received with the same reverence, as the four Gospels?
