A26860	An answer to Mr. Dodwell and Dr. Sherlocke, confuting an universal humane church-supremacy aristocratical and monarchical, as church-tyranny and popery : and defending Dr. Isaac Barrow's treatise against it by Richard Baxter ; preparatory to a fuller treatise against such an universal soveraignty as contrary to reason, Christianity, the Protestant profession, and the Church of England, though the corrupters usurp that title.	Baxter, Richard, 1615-1691.	1682 (1682)	Wing B1184; ESTC R16768	131,071	189

be_v say_v for_o it_o as_o well_o as_o against_o it_o and_o i_o never_o meet_v but_o with_o two_o objection_n which_o seem_v to_o i_o worthy_a of_o much_o further_a search_n one_o be_v that_o see_v de_fw-la facto_fw-la popery_n and_o high_a prelacy_n have_v so_o far_o and_o long_o rule_v in_o the_o church_n whether_o it_o be_v credible_a that_o christ_n will_v so_o permit_v it_o if_o he_o hate_v it_o and_o give_v his_o church_n de_fw-fr facto_fw-la no_o better_a government_n 2._o whether_o man_n great_a proneness_n to_o discord_n make_v not_o popery_n italian_n or_o french_a a_o prudent_a course_n and_o to_o these_o 1._o i_o be_o sure_a that_o christ_n come_v to_o destroy_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o save_v his_o people_n from_o their_o sin_n and_o make_v they_o holy_a a_o peculiar_a people_n zealous_a of_o good_a work_n and_o gather_v a_o church_n of_o such_o out_o of_o the_o world_n and_o rule_v they_o in_o a_o communion_n of_o saint_n till_o he_o bring_v they_o to_o perfection_n therefore_o i_o have_v great_a reason_n to_o suspect_v those_o man_n and_o that_o order_n and_o course_n of_o government_n which_o cherish_v ignorance_n and_o sin_n in_o minister_n and_o people_n and_o hunt_v and_o silence_v faithful_a minister_n and_o suppress_v persecute_v torment_v burn_v the_o most_o conscionable_a christian_n that_o for_o fear_n of_o offend_a god_n disobey_v they_o that_o turn_v serious_a religion_n and_o spiriritual_a worship_n of_o god_n into_o bodily_a exercise_n and_o mere_a conformity_n to_o their_o will_n and_o outward_a take_v sacrament_n and_o use_v command_v ceremony_n and_o word_n under_o the_o shadow_n whereof_o for_o 1000_o year_n piety_n have_v wither_v and_o impiety_n prosper_v christ_n promise_v to_o be_v with_o his_o servant_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n mat_n 28.30_o and_o i_o can_v but_o think_v that_o he_o be_v most_o with_o those_o that_o be_v most_o acquaint_v with_o his_o gospel_n and_o most_o love_n he_o and_o obey_v he_o and_o be_v most_o holy_a and_o heavenly_a and_o walk_v not_o after_o the_o flesh_n but_o the_o spirit_n rather_o than_o with_o the_o ignorant_a fleshly_a worldly_a malignant_a persecutor_n that_o set_v they_o against_o serious_a godliness_n and_o godly_a man_n §_o 3._o and_o i_o take_v not_o any_o notice_n of_o the_o time_n present_a from_o any_o thing_n but_o certain_a experience_n nor_o of_o the_o age_n past_a from_o enemy_n or_o suspect_v but_o of_o the_o elder_a time_n from_o all_o our_o common_a church-history_n and_o of_o the_o last_o 1000_o or_o 1200_o year_n as_o to_o the_o worst_a part_n of_o their_o action_n from_o their_o own_o great_a friend_n and_o flatterer_n such_o as_o baronius_n binnius_n platina_n petavius_n and_o other_o §_o 4._o and_o the_o matter_n of_o fact_n i_o confess_v have_v have_v much_o power_n on_o my_o judgement_n have_v the_o pope_n and_o lording_n sort_n of_o diocesan_n be_v promoter_n of_o love_n and_o holiness_n in_o the_o church_n and_o not_o the_o woeful_a scandal_n of_o it_o and_o the_o enemy_n of_o good_a man_n and_o serious_a piety_n i_o shall_v have_v be_v strongly_a tempt_v to_o own_o their_o form_n of_o government_n to_o be_v of_o god_n though_o i_o be_o assure_v that_o nature_n make_v one_o man_n or_o one_o council_n uncapable_a of_o proper_a government_n over_o all_o the_o earth_n i_o shall_v never_o have_v oppose_v that_o which_o do_v good_a but_o destruction_n silence_v persecute_v cruelty_n rebellion_n worldliness_n ignorance_n malignity_n and_o cherish_v sin_n and_o suppress_v piety_n and_o the_o very_a word_n of_o god_n i_o be_o sure_o be_v all_o the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n what_o name_n or_o title_n soever_o be_v pretend_v for_o they_o §_o 5._o and_o the_o fact_n be_v to_o i_o past_o dispute_n i_o quiet_o submit_v to_o the_o dreadful_a providence_n of_o god_n that_o permit_v it_o consider_v 1._o the_o church_n on_o earth_n be_v no_o better_a than_o the_o angel_n of_o heaven_n be_v and_o if_o so_o many_o of_o the_o angel_n keep_v not_o their_o first_o estate_n but_o fall_v by_o pride_n what_o wonder_v if_o many_o bishop_n do_v so_o 2._o if_o adam_n and_o eve_n both_o fell_a from_o innocency_n and_o that_o so_o soon_o it_o be_v not_o incredible_a that_o the_o serpent_n shall_v beguile_v some_o bishop_n to_o depart_v from_o the_o simplicity_n that_o be_v in_o christ._n 3._o and_o if_o the_o first_o bear_v man_n cain_n murder_v his_o righteous_a brother_n by_o malignant_a envy_n for_o his_o true_a religion_n it_o be_v no_o wonder_n if_o some_o clergyman_n be_v such_o 4._o and_o if_o the_o whole_a world_n so_o soon_o be_v drown_v in_o wickedness_n that_o only_a noah_n and_o his_o house_n be_v meet_v to_o be_v save_v from_o the_o flood_n what_o wonder_v if_o the_o church_n have_v too_o great_a a_o deluge_n of_o iniquity_n 5._o and_o to_o be_v short_a if_o noah_n himself_o fall_v after_o such_o deliverance_n and_o a_o cham_n be_v curse_v that_o have_v be_v save_v and_o their_o posterity_n prove_v so_o bad_a that_o all_o the_o canaanite_n etc._n etc._n must_v be_v destroy_v if_o sodom_n flame_n too_o better_o warn_v lot_n or_o his_o wife_n and_o child_n if_o abraham_n have_v a_o ishmael_n and_o isaac_n a_o esau_n and_o jacob_n envious_a son_n and_o two_o murderer_n and_o two_o adulterer_n if_o israel_n sin_n and_o die_v in_o the_o wilderness_n if_o aaron_n after_o that_o he_o have_v see_v make_v they_o a_o idol_n if_o nadab_n and_o abihu_n die_v as_o they_o do_v if_o eli_n and_o samuel_n son_n prove_v all_o so_o bad_a and_o in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o judge_n there_o be_v so_o many_o revolt_n and_o ruin_n if_o the_o first_o king_n saul_n so_o soon_o revolt_v if_o david_n so_o fall_v and_o absolom_n so_o sin_v and_o solomon_n himself_o if_o ten_o tribe_n so_o quick_o break_v off_o from_o david_n house_n and_o leave_v he_o but_o two_o if_o those_o two_o prove_v as_o bad_a as_o the_o prophet_n tell_v we_o and_o go_v into_o captivity_n and_o if_o the_o nation_n rebel_v against_o christ_n and_o be_v curse_a and_o scatter_v over_o the_o earth_n what_o wonder_v if_o the_o pope_n and_o proud_a prelate_n do_v corrupt_v the_o church_n of_o god_n if_o christ_n choose_v twelve_o have_v a_o judas_n among_o they_o if_o the_o rest_n strive_v who_o shall_v be_v great_a if_o peter_n deny_v he_o and_o they_o all_o forsake_v he_o and_o

accuse_v he_o before_o and_o such_o as_o diotrephes_n cast_v out_o the_o brethren_n and_o prate_v malicious_o against_o john_n if_o christ_n tell_v we_o of_o a_o little_a flock_n and_o not_o many_o noble_a and_o great_a be_v call_v if_o it_o be_v as_o hard_o for_o the_o rich_a to_o be_v save_v as_o christ_n say_v if_o for_o three_o hundred_o year_n the_o church_n be_v a_o persecute_a people_n and_o if_o the_o patriarch_n and_o bishop_n themselves_o for_o many_o hundred_o year_n after_o accuse_v one_o another_o in_o council_n and_o accuse_v such_o council_n themselves_o of_o heresy_n and_o other_o crime_n as_o much_o as_o be_v yet_o visible_a they_o do_v why_o shall_v i_o be_v scandalize_v at_o the_o badness_n of_o bishop_n and_o council_n and_o the_o woeful_a corruption_n of_o the_o church_n especial_o consider_v 1._o that_o it_o be_v chief_o but_o the_o worldly_a proud_a domineer_a sort_n that_o thus_o miscarry_v as_o the_o very_a angel_n do_v 2._o that_o god_n keep_v up_o still_o a_o great_a number_n of_o humble_a and_o holy_a bishop_n and_o presbyter_n that_o join_v not_o in_o usurpation_n and_o pride_n with_o the_o rest_n 3._o and_o that_o god_n blessed_v their_o labour_n to_o the_o save_n of_o so_o many_o million_o of_o soul_n and_o propagate_a true_a serious_a religion_n to_o this_o day_n yea_o some_o of_o the_o great_a patriarch_n themselves_o have_v be_v holy_a humble_a man_n 4._o and_o when_o god_n preserve_v by_o a_o humble_a ministry_n so_o many_o christian_n as_o the_o albigenses_n waldenses_n and_o many_o among_o the_o papist_n themselves_z from_o the_o like_n and_o guilt_n of_o the_o roman_a corruption_n 5._o and_o when_o god_n have_v raise_v so_o learned_a humble_a and_o holy_a a_o ministry_n to_o reform_v the_o church_n and_o blessed_v their_o labour_n in_o europe_n and_o special_o in_o england_n as_o he_o have_v do_v even_o those_o that_o mr._n dodwell_n degrade_v yea_o many_o pious_a diocesan_n here_o and_o elsewhere_o who_o yet_o can_v prove_v their_o title_n by_o his_o pretend_a way_n of_o successive_a canonical_a ordination_n nor_o dare_v have_v swear_v that_o they_o have_v such_o a_o call_n §_o 6._o i_o be_o
