the_o country_n that_o be_v near_o about_o it_o why_o then_o the_o chair_n of_o moses_n which_o christ_n here_o speak_v of_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o doctrine_n of_o moses_n which_o he_o

pa._n first_o for_o this_o priority_n that_o papist_n will_v so_o fain_o ascribe_v to_o peter_n above_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n i_o say_v our_o saviour_n christ_n have_v long_o since_o

not_o belong_v as_o far_o forth_o to_o all_o the_o apostle_n as_o it_o do_v to_o peter_n i_o will_v tell_v you_o sir_n tady_n there_o be_v not_o so_o simple_a a_o minister_n in_o the_o church_n of_o

your_o pope_n have_v keep_v among_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o they_o will_v be_v account_v to_o be_v peter_n successor_n but_o what_o a_o counterfeit_a hypocrite_n be_v your_o pope_n that_o

and_o because_o christ_n have_v say_v i_o have_v pray_v for_o thou_o peter_n that_o thy_o faith_n shall_v not_o fail_v therefore_o say_v the_o papist_n the_o pope_n can_v err_v thus_o they_o do_v

the_o better_a confirmation_n of_o the_o samaritan_n this_o argue_v that_o peter_n have_v no_o such_o jurisdiction_n over_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n as_o our_o papist_n do_v dream_n of_o for_o than_o he_o can_v not_o have_v be_v send_v but_o peter_n and_o john_n be_v send_v as_o other_o private_a person_n to_o preach_v and_o minister_v to_o the_o samaritan_n and_o in_o the_o eleven_o of_o the_o act_n when_o peter_n have_v be_v warn_v by_o a_o vision_n to_o go_v to_o cornelius_n the_o rest_n of_o the_o congregation_n call_v he_o to_o a_o account_n and_o after_o a_o sort_n rebuke_v

how_o it_o appear_v unto_o he_o and_o be_v warrant_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n by_o this_o it_o do_v appear_v that_o peter_n have_v no_o superiority_n above_o the_o rest_n but_o rather_o argue_v a_o inferiority_n than_o any_o place_n of_o principality_n we_o read_v how_o paul_n again_o not_o only_o control_v peter_n about_o matter_n of_o circumcision_n but_o also_o withstand_v he_o to_o his_o

more_o apt_a and_o ready_a both_o in_o propound_v of_o question_n &_o in_o answer_v of_o demand_n which_o proceed_v sometime_o of_o ignorance_n as_o when_o he_o demand_v of_o his_o master_n whether_o

in_o the_o 16._o chap._n before_o when_o christ_n reveal_v to_o his_o disciple_n that_o he_o must_v go_v up_o to_o jerusalem_n there_o to_o suffer_v many_o thing_n peter_n rash_o advise_v he_o to_o
