A36464	Archiepiscopal priority instituted by Christ, proved by plaine testimonies of Scripture. Asserted by the ancient fathers. And whereunto all the moderne divines of the Protestant side doe fully assent, without contradiction of any one man. / By Samuel Daniel Master of Arts.	Daniel, Samuel, 17th cent.	1642 (1642)	Wing D206; ESTC R1122	45,585	58

apostle_n of_o the_o circumcision_n and_o have_v a_o priority_n of_o order_n among_o the_o governor_n of_o the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n which_o the_o scripture_n give_v he_o in_o plain_a language_n let_v we_o remember_v that_o they_o that_o add_v to_o and_o they_o that_o take_v from_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v both_o subject_n to_o the_o same_o curse_n and_o that_o they_o that_o call_v evil_a good_a and_o good_a evil_n be_v in_o the_o same_o case_n for_o my_o own_o part_n i_o dare_v not_o but_o speak_v the_o truth_n as_o i_o find_v it_o deliver_v in_o the_o scripture_n it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o god_n messenger_n to_o reveal_v the_o whole_a counsel_n of_o god_n and_o to_o keep_v back_o nothing_o the_o knowledge_n whereof_o be_v necessary_a for_o the_o promove_n of_o god_n glory_n and_o the_o advancement_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o his_o dear_a son_n and_o this_o point_n which_o i_o maintain_v concerning_o the_o superiority_n of_o church_n governor_n concern_v the_o external_a government_n of_o his_o kingdom_n i_o be_o sure_a and_o it_o be_v so_o clear_a and_o evident_a in_o scripture_n that_o none_o that_o have_v understanding_n and_o can_v read_v the_o scripture_n but_o may_v conceive_v it_o and_o my_o opponent_n some_o of_o they_o make_v a_o church_n government_n a_o mark_n of_o the_o church_n and_o a_o part_n of_o the_o gospel_n it_o stand_v we_o then_o great_o in_o hand_n to_o make_v trial_n which_o be_v that_o government_n that_o christ_n have_v establish_v in_o his_o church_n and_o true_o the_o government_n which_o i_o defend_v be_v the_o only_a government_n which_o we_o find_v establish_v by_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n and_o which_o have_v be_v in_o use_n in_o the_o christian_a church_n in_o all_o age_n and_o generation_n since_o and_o that_o which_o some_o of_o my_o opponent_n defend_v we_o neither_o read_v of_o it_o in_o scripture_n not_o so_o much_o as_o a_o syllable_n nor_o that_o as_o it_o be_v the_o government_n establish_v of_o any_o particular_a church_n in_o the_o whole_a christian_a world_n till_o within_o these_o few_o year_n and_o true_o it_o make_v my_o hair_n to_o stand_v upon_o my_o head_n to_o hear_v so_o glorious_a epithiet_v give_v to_o the_o invention_n of_o man_n as_o to_o call_v their_o discipline_n the_o temple_n of_o god_n mount_n zion_n the_o tabernacle_n of_o the_o lord_n the_o eternal_a council_n of_o god_n the_o sceptre_n of_o juda_n a_o mark_n of_o the_o church_n a_o part_n of_o the_o gospel_n these_o epithiet_n and_o style_n be_v proper_a to_o the_o apostolical_a government_n to_o the_o purity_n whereof_o as_o it_o be_v record_v in_o scripture_n if_o the_o government_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v conform_v it_o may_v be_v just_o call_v the_o holy_a discipline_n and_o enjoy_v all_o these_o forementioned_a epithiet_n o_o bless_a jesus_n happy_a shall_v i_o think_v myself_o if_o i_o shall_v see_v thy_o church_n in_o all_o christian_a kingdom_n govern_v as_o thou_o have_v prescribe_v in_o thy_o word_n and_o thus_o much_o i_o have_v say_v for_o peter_n archiepiscopal_a priority_n now_o i_o will_v say_v somewhat_o for_o paul_n in_o the_o church_n of_o the_o gentile_n saint_n augustine_n say_v that_o peter_n be_v not_o the_o head_n of_o the_o church_n but_o a_o eye_n in_o the_o head_n and_o true_o if_o peter_n be_v the_o one_o eye_n i_o may_v say_v that_o paul_n be_v the_o other_o for_o although_o that_o peter_n be_v call_v among_o the_o first_o of_o the_o apostle_n by_o christ_n his_o master_n and_o paul_n after_o all_o yet_o the_o apostle_n paul_n mention_v his_o dignity_n and_o degree_n to_o be_v as_o high_a as_o peter_n he_o be_v not_o inferior_a he_o say_v to_o the_o chief_a apostle_n and_o if_o we_o look_v to_o the_o manner_n of_o their_o call_n paul_n calling_n be_v much_o more_o glorious_a than_o peter_n even_o when_o he_o be_v first_o call_v to_o be_v a_o preacher_n of_o the_o gospel_n peter_n be_v call_v when_o he_o be_v go_v about_o the_o work_n of_o his_o call_n paul_n when_o he_o be_v rage_v with_o all_o cruelty_n against_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n christ_n arrest_v he_o and_o make_v he_o stand_v and_o yield_v saul_n saul_n why_o persecute_v thou_o i_o it_o be_v hard_a for_o thou_o to_o kick_v against_o the_o prick_n it_o be_v at_o this_o time_n that_o he_o be_v catch_v up_o into_o paradise_n and_o hear_v unspeakable_a word_n which_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o man_n to_o utter_v 2._o cor._n 12._o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n that_o the_o apostle_n paul_n glory_v in_o the_o manner_n of_o his_o call_n for_o none_o of_o they_o be_v call_v after_o so_o excellent_a a_o manner_n which_o be_v a_o presage_n of_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o work_n whereunto_o he_o be_v call_v which_o our_o saviour_n make_v know_v to_o ananias_n act._n 9_o for_o he_o say_v to_o he_o he_o be_v a_o choose_a vessel_n unto_o i_o to_o bear_v my_o name_n before_o the_o gentile_n and_o king_n and_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n for_o i_o will_v show_v he_o say_v the_o lord_n what_o great_a thing_n he_o shall_v suffer_v for_o my_o name_n sake_n this_o be_v the_o first_o time_n that_o he_o be_v call_v and_o that_o only_o to_o be_v a_o preacher_n of_o the_o gospel_n he_o be_v not_o as_o yet_o call_v to_o be_v a_o apostle_n nor_o he_o be_v not_o advance_v some_o year_n after_o this_o to_o the_o apostolical_a function_n not_o before_o the_o lord_n appear_v to_o the_o prophet_n and_o teacher_n at_o antioch_n and_o require_v they_o to_o separate_v to_o he_o barnabas_n and_o saul_n to_o the_o work_n whereunto_o he_o have_v call_v they_o act._n 13._o it_o be_v at_o this_o time_n that_o he_o be_v make_v a_o apostle_n before_o this_o time_n he_o be_v no_o more_o but_o one_o of_o the_o prophet_n of_o the_o church_n of_o antioch_n and_o so_o call_v act._n 13.1_o after_o this_o time_n he_o be_v say_v to_o be_v fill_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o to_o be_v mighty_a by_o wonder_n and_o miracle_n after_o this_o he_o be_v call_v by_o a_o new_a name_n paul_n that_o paul_n be_v the_o chief_a apostle_n of_o the_o church_n of_o the_o gentile_n he_o show_v in_o divers_a place_n of_o his_o epistle_n eph._n 3._o he_o say_v for_o this_o cause_n i_o paul_n the_o prisoner_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o you_o gentile_n and_o verse_n 2._o if_o you_o have_v hear_v of_o the_o dispensation_n of_o the_o mystery_n of_o god_n which_o be_v give_v to_o you-ward_o and_o verse_n 8._o unto_o i_o who_o be_o less_o than_o the_o least_o of_o all_o saint_n be_v this_o grace_n give_v that_o i_o shall_v preach_v among_o the_o gentile_n the_o unsearchable_a riches_n of_o christ_n the_o apostle_n say_v this_o grace_n be_v give_v he_o not_o because_o it_o be_v only_o give_v he_o but_o because_o it_o be_v chief_o give_v he_o but_o he_o most_o plain_o declare_v his_o priority_n in_o the_o church_n of_o the_o gentile_n gal._n 2._o for_o there_o he_o equal_n himself_o with_o peter_n who_o as_o i_o have_v make_v manifest_a have_v a_o priority_n of_o order_n among_o the_o 12._o apostle_n and_o in_o the_o whole_a jewish_a church_n and_o do_v not_o in_o any_o case_n acknowledge_v himself_o inferior_a to_o he_o neither_o in_o order_n nor_o degree_n yea_o he_o tell_v we_o plain_o that_o the_o gospel_n of_o the_o uncircumcision_n be_v commit_v to_o he_o as_o the_o gospel_n of_o circumcision_n be_v commit_v to_o peter_n which_o testimony_n of_o the_o apostle_n paul_n evident_o declare_v that_o there_o be_v a_o special_a oversight_n commit_v unto_o peter_n in_o the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n and_o unto_o paul_n in_o the_o church_n of_o the_o gentile_n for_o if_o it_o have_v not_o be_v so_o why_o will_v he_o compare_v with_o peter_n and_o not_o with_o the_o rest_n not_o he_o will_v have_v say_v without_o all_o doubt_n as_o the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n be_v commit_v to_o peter_n james_n and_o john_n so_o the_o church_n of_o the_o gentile_n be_v commit_v to_o he_o and_o barnabas_n moreover_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o paul_n his_o charge_n have_v some_o excellency_n in_o it_o above_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o other_o governor_n of_o the_o church_n of_o the_o gentile_n for_o although_o there_o be_v other_o that_o be_v apostle_n of_o the_o gentile_n and_o namely_o barnabas_n for_o one_o yet_o he_o appropriate_v a_o special_a oversight_n of_o the_o uncircumcision_n to_o himself_o in_o these_o word_n he_o that_o be_v effectual_a in_o peter_n to_o the_o apostleship_n of_o the_o circumcision_n the_o same_o be_v mighty_a in_o i_o towards_o the_o gentile_n further_a paul_n tell_v we_o 2._o cor._n 11.26_o that_o he_o have_v the_o care_n of_o all_o the_o church_n viz._n of_o many_o church_n of_o the_o gentile_n this_o evident_o show_v not_o the_o greatness_n
