once_o a_o month_n and_o often_o if_o any_o occasion_n be●_n this_o we_o call_v the_o classical_a eldership_n and_o last_o in_o case_n any_o matter_n shall_v not_o here_o be_v decide_v they_o may_v appeal_v to_o the_o provincial_n or_o nationall_n synod_n and_o there_o it_o shall_v be_v determine_v but_o how_o will_v it_o appear_v that_o there_o be_v any_o such_o church_n so_o govern_v by_o synod_n ans_fw-fr for_o such_o name_n it_o be_v not_o material_a we_o contend_v not_o about_o name_n but_o the_o thing_n itself_o we_o shall_v find_v in_o scripture_n first_o for_o provincial_n church_n we_o find_v that_o every_o church_n in_o asia_n be_v make_v up_o of_o several_a church_n in_o the_o second_o and_o three_o chapter_n of_o the_o revelation_n now_o such_o a_o church_n which_o comprehend_v many_o church_n in_o it_o can_v not_o be_v one_o single_a congregation_n make_v up_o of_o one_o pastor_n and_o his_o people_n neither_o can_v these_o be_v nationall_n church_n because_o at_o ephesus_n which_o be_v a_o city_n act_v 18_o 28.19_o and_o at_o thyatira_n a_o city_n act_v 16.14_o the_o like_a may_v be_v say_v of_o corinth_n there_o be_v many_o congregation_n 1_o cor._n

more_o christian_n than_o can_v congregate_v together_o three_o thousand_o be_v add_v to_o that_o church_n at_o one_o time_n act_v 2.41_o 47._o and_o five_o thousand_o at_o another_o act_v 4.4_o so_o that_o there_o be_v many_o thusand_n believer_n in_o jerusalem_n act_v 21.20_o yea_o it_o be_v say_v that_o all_o jerusalem_n be_v baptize_v of_o john_n in_o jordan_n 3.5_o 6_o and_o yet_o they_o be_v call_v the_o church_n at_o jerusalem_n act_v 11.21_o which_o can_v be_v no_o other_o but_o a_o provincial_n church_n three_o there_o be_v in_o jerusalem_n many_o minister_n theer_n be_v the_o 12_o

it_o be_v a_o nationall_n church_n because_o at_o jerusalem_n the_o like_a may_v be_v say_v of_o the_o church_n at_o antioch_n there_o be_v many_o prophet_n and_o some_o apostle_n act_n 11.26_o 27._o and_o yet_o the_o church_n at_o antioch_n act_v 13.4_o four_o all_o that_o multitude_n of_o christian_n yea_o i_o may_v say_v all_o those_o church_n in_o jerusalem_n for_o they_o have_v elder_n choose_v which_o be_v fix_v officer_n place_v in_o every_o single_a congregation_n and_o there_o confine_v see_v act_n 14.23_o yet_o all_o these_o church_n be_v govern_v by_o one_o common_a

present_a act_v 21.18_o and_o so_o be_v every_o church_n in_o asia_n contain_v church_n govern_v and_o they_o blame_v for_o every_o thing_n that_o be_v amiss_o in_o any_o of_o those_o church_n comprehend_v in_o that_o church_n under_o that_o government_n now_o a_o nationall_n church_n be_v that_o when_o god_n shall_v deal_v with_o any_o nation_n as_o he_o do_v with_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o jew_n to_o make_v they_o his_o people_n in_o covenant_n and_o give_v his_o statute_n sabbath_n and_o sacrament_n as_o he_o do_v to_o they_o nehe._n 9.13_o 14_o 15._o psal_n 147.19_o 20._o then_o that_o be_v a_o nationall_n church_n as_o well_o as_o that_o of_o the_o jew_n but_o god_n have_v give_v england_n and_o scotland_n the_o book_n of_o the_o covenant_n and_o minister_n after_o his_o own_o heart_n to_o show_v we_o the_o meaning_n of_o it_o and_o he_o have_v give_v the_o sabbath_n day_n appoint_v for_o that_o end_n and_o the_o sacrament_n whereby_o we_o have_v seal_v that_o covenant_n and_o also_o the_o lord_n have_v seal_v many_o of_o we_o with_o his_o spirit_n therefore_o our_o church_n be_v a_o national_a church_n 2._o all_o our_o congregation_n contain_v the_o whole_a nation_n be_v fasten_v and_o sement_v together_o as_o member_n of_o one_o body_n and_z as_o branch_n of_o one_o vine_n by_o class_n and_o synod_n as_o all_o the_o congregation_n in_o israel_n make_v one_o congregation_n psa_n 74.2_o 4._o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o nationall_n church_n for_o it_o be_v not_o confine_v to_o a_o city_n or_o province_n or_o one_o assembly_n under_o one_o

so_o fill_v the_o land_n psal_n 80._o and_o so_o we_o as_o well_o as_o they_o become_v a_o national_a church_n 3._o it_o be_v foretell_v that_o nation_n shall_v come_v into_o the_o christian_a church_n isa_n 2.2.61.1_o to_o 11.66.18_o and_o this_o we_o see_v fulfil_v for_o all_o the_o whole_a nation_n be_v come_v in_o and_o have_v seal_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n by_o baptism_n and_o all_o profess_v ourselves_o member_n of_o this_o church_n and_o there_o be_v as_o many_o live_a member_n in_o this_o church_n as_o in_o that_o national_a church_n of_o the_o jew_n 4._o the_o lord_n have_v not_o as_o yet_o give_v we_o a_o bill_n of_o divorcement_n but_o own_v we_o still_o for_o his_o church_n continue_v his_o minister_n and_o his_o ordinance_n with_o we_o and_o his_o blessing_n upon_o they_o both_o to_o convert_v those_o that_o be_v not_o convert_v and_o to_o strengthen_v those_o that_o be_v we_o have_v see_v thy_o go_n o_o god_n in_o the_o sanctuary_n psa_n 68.24_o last_o these_o church_n have_v and_o do_v still_o own_o this_o title_n the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o the_o church_n of_o scotland_n and_o all_o christian_a church_n do_v so_o approve_v of_o our_o church_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o nationall_n church_n and_o the_o universal_a church_n i_o prove_v thus_o first_o all_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n have_v one_o foundation_n upon_o this_o rock_n will_v i_o build_v my_o church_n mat._n 16.18_o and_o yet_o the_o bvilder_n be_v send_v into_o all_o nation_n to_o build_v it_o mat._n 28.19_o and_o that_o upon_o this_o foundation_n for_o other_o

church_n 2._o paul_n persecute_v the_o christian_n at_o jerusalem_n and_o at_o damacus_n and_o in_o other_o strange_a city_n act_n 26.10.11_o yet_o all_o these_o he_o call_v the_o church_n of_o god_n gal._n 1.13_o 1_o cor._n 15.9_o which_o show_v that_o the_o church_n be_v universal_a 3._o jew_n and_o gentile_n which_o comprehend_v all_o nation_n make_v but_o one_o church_n for_o say_v paul_n give_v no_o offence_n to_o jews_n nor_o gentile_n nor_o to_o the_o church_n of_o god_n 1_o cor._n 10.32_o this_o can_v be_v mean_v a_o three_o sort_n of_o people_n because_o there_o be_v no_o more_o and_o this_o church_n be_v make_v up_o of_o both_o because_o both_o be_v mention_v therefore_o it_o be_v universal_a 4._o all_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n make_v but_o one_o church_n for_o say_v
