A91309	Truth triumphing over falshood, antiquity over novelty. Or, The first part of a just and seasonable vindication of the undoubted ecclesiasticall iurisdiction, right, legislative, coercive power of Christian emperors, kings, magistrates, parliaments, in all matters of religion, church-government, discipline, ceremonies, manners: summoning of, presiding, moderating in councells, synods; and ratifying their canons, determinations, decrees: as likewise of lay-mens right both to sit and vote in councells; ... In refutation of Mr. Iohn Goodwins Innocencies Triumph: my deare brother Burtons Vindication of churches, commonly called Independent: and of all anti-monarchicall, anti-Parliamentall, anti-synodicall, and anarchicall paradoxes of papists, prelates, Anabaptists, Arminians, Socinians, Brownists, or Independents: whose old and new objections to the contrary, are here fully answered. / By William Prynne, of Lincolnes Inne, Esquire.	Prynne, William, 1600-1669.	1645 (1645)	Wing P4115; Thomason E259_1; ESTC R212479	202,789	171

ghost_n and_o we_o to_o lay_v upon_o you_o no_o other_o burden_n than_o these_o necessary_a thing_n now_o brother_n we_o challenge_v you_o to_o show_v we_o any_o parliament_n council_n synod_n ever_o since_o the_o apostle_n that_o can_v or_o can_v say_v thus_o it_o seem_v good_a to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o we_o to_o determine_v controversy_n of_o religion_n to_o make_v and_o impose_v law_n to_o bind_v all_o man_n etc._n etc._n show_v this_o to_o we_o at_o this_o time_n and_o we_o will_v obey_v but_o if_o you_o can_v as_o you_o never_o can_n never_o let_v any_o man_n press_v upon_o we_o that_o scripture_n that_o synod_n which_o have_v no_o parallel_n in_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o so_o be_v no_o precedent_n patterne_n for_o any_o council_n synod_n parliament_n thus_o my_o brother_n burton_n conclude_v hence_o with_o abundance_n of_o confidence_n but_o sweet_a brother_n answ_n let_v not_o he_o who_o put_v on_o his_o harness_n boast_v as_o he_o that_o put_v it_o off_o receive_v your_o answer_n first_o and_o then_o be_v as_o vain_o confident_a as_o you_o will_v 〈◊〉_d your_o obtuse_a argument_n afterward_o which_o i_o shall_v thus_o retort_v upon_o you_o first_o i_o suppose_v you_o will_v grant_v that_o the_o apostle_n 11._o preach_v as_o well_o a_o writ_n and_o determine_v by_o a_o infallible_a spirit_n and_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n divine_a inspiration_n when_o as_o neither_o yourself_o nor_o any_o other_o independent_a nor_o presbiterial●_n minister_n can_v infallible_o thus_o preach_v write_v or_o determine_v at_o this_o day_n ergo_fw-la brother_n by_o your_o argument_n neither_o you_o nor_o any_o other_o minister_n must_v henceforth_o preach_v unto_o nor_o determine_v any_o controversy_n of_o religion_n or_o church-government_n at_o this_o day_n be_v not_o guide_v by_o any_o infallible_a spirit_n and_o because_o you_o may_v possible_o err_v and_o can_v say_v as_o the_o apostle_n do_v it_o seem_v good_a to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o to_o we_o and_o then_o brother_n of_o what_o value_n be_v all_o your_o sermon_n book_n and_o confident_a asseveration_n of_o the_o divinity_n of_o your_o independent_a way_n your_o disciple_n and_o

they_o can_v give_v they_o the_o gift_n of_o tongue_n nor_o cause_v the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o fall_v upon_o they_o as_o christ_n and_o the_o apostle_n do_v 3._o throughout_o moses_n give_v no_o

at_o this_o day_n can_v make_v no_o civil_a temporal_a law_n to_o govern_v their_o people_n by_o because_o they_o receive_v they_o not_o immediate_o from_o god_n by_o a_o infallible_a spirit_n 4._o christ_n send_v none_o to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n or_o administer_v the_o sacrament_n but_o such_o who_o himself_o immediate_o call_v ordain_v furnish_v miraculous_o with_o gift_n of_o tongue_n

aught_o to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n and_o then_o where_o be_v all_o your_o independent_a minister_n and_o lay-preacher_n i_o hope_v brother_n by_o this_o time_n you_o most_o renounce_v your_o
