bishop_n receive_v from_o their_o church_n and_o atbanasius_n yet_o a_o deacon_n be_v read_v to_o have_v be_v at_o the_o council_n of_o nice_a and_o to_o have_v have_v right_a of_o suffrage_n in_o

of_o these_o which_o have_v be_v object_v now_o to_o come_v to_o the_o conclusion_n let_v this_o be_v first_o conclus_fw-la 1._o extraordinary_a power_n be_v commit_v to_o some_o singular_a person_n so_o that_o in_o some_o case_n they_o may_v singular_o exercise_v it_o without_o concurrence_n of_o other_o this_o i_o speak_v in_o regard_n of_o apostle_n and_o evangelist_n who_o power_n in_o many_o thing_n can_v not_o have_v concurrence_n of_o particular_a church_n which_o in_o the_o former_a question_n be_v sufficient_o declare_v conclus_fw-la 2._o that_o ordinary_a power_n and_o the_o execution_n thereof_o be_v not_o commit_v to_o any_o singular_a governor_n whereof_o there_o be_v to_o be_v one_o only_a in_o each_o church_n this_o be_v against_o the_o jesuit_n who_o make_v account_v the_o most_o of_o they_o ●hat_n as_o all_o civil_a power_n of_o government_n be_v give_v to_o king_n to_o be_v execute_v by_o they_o within_o their_o commonwealth_n so_o ecclesiastical_a

conclus_fw-la 3._o ordinary_a power_n with_o the_o execution_n thereof_o be_v not_o give_v to_o the_o community_n of_o the_o church_n or_o to_o the_o whole_a multitude_n of_o the_o faithful_a so_o that_o they_o be_v the_o immediate_a and_o first_o receptacle_n receive_v it_o from_o christ_n and_o virtual_o derive_v it_o to_o other_o this_o i_o set_v down_o against_o the_o divine_n of_o constance_n our_o prime_a divine_n as_o luther_n and_o melancthon_n and_o the_o sorbonist_n who_o do_v maintain_v it_o at_o this_o day_n yea_o this_o seem_v to_o have_v be_v tertullians_n error_n for_o in_o his_o book_n de_fw-la pudicitia_fw-la he_o make_v christ_n to_o have_v leave_v all_o christian_n with_o like_a power_n but_o the_o church_n for_o her_o honour_n do_v dispose_v it_o as_o we_o see_v the_o proportion_n of_o a_o politic_a body_n and_o natural_a deceive_v they_o while_o they_o will_v apply_v all_o that_o be_v in_o these_o to_o christ_n mystical_a body_n not_o remember_v that_o analogon_n be_v not_o in_o omni_fw-la simile_n for_o than_o shall_v shall_v it_o be_v the_o same_o with_o the_o analogatum_fw-la true_a it_o be_v all_o civil_a power_n be_v in_o the_o body_n politic_a the_o collection_n of_o subject_n then_o in_o a_o king_n from_o they_o and_o all_o the_o power_n of_o hear_v see_v they_o be_v in_o the_o whole_a man_n which_o do_v produce_v they_o effectual_o though_o formal_o and_o instrumental_o they_o be_v in_o the_o care_n and_o eye_n but_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o be_v because_o these_o power_n be_v natural_a and_o what_o ever_o be_v natural_a do_v first_o agree_v to_o the_o community_n or_o totum_fw-la and_o afterward_o to_o a_o particular_a person_n and_o part_n but_o all_o that_o be_v in_o this_o body_n can_v hold_v in_o christ_n mystical_a body_n in_o a_o politic_a body_n power_n be_v first_o in_o the_o community_n in_o the_o king_n from_o they_o but_o all_o ecclesiastical_a power_n be_v first_o in_o our_o king_n before_o any_o in_o the_o church_n from_o he_o but_o to_o who_o shall_v he_o first_o commit_v this_o power_n but_o to_o his_o queen_n answ_n consider_v this_o power_n be_v not_o any_o lordly_a power_n but_o a_o power_n of_o do_v service_n to_o the_o church_n for_o christ_n his_o sake_n therefore_o it_o be_v fit_v it_o shall_v be_v commit_v to_o some_o person_n and_o not_o to_o the_o whole_a community_n which_o be_v the_o queen_n of_o christ_n for_o it_o be_v not_o fit_v a_o king_n shall_v commit_v power_n to_o his_o queen_n to_o serve_v herself_o proper_o but_o to_o have_v person_n who_o in_o regard_n of_o this_o relation_n shall_v stand_v distinguish_v from_o she_o second_o in_o natural_a body_n the_o power_n of_o see_v be_v first_o immediate_o in_o the_o man_n from_o the_o man_n in_o the_o eye_n and_o particular_a member_n in_o the_o mystical_a body_n the_o faith_n of_o a_o believer_n be_v not_o first_o immediate_o in_o all_o then_o in_o the_o believer_n but_o first_o of_o all_o and_o immediate_o in_o the_o personal_a believer_n for_o who_o good_a it_o serve_v more_o proper_o then_o for_o the_o whole_a every_o man_n be_v to_o live_v by_o his_o own_o faith_n the_o power_n of_o priesthood_n be_v not_o first_o in_o the_o church_n of_o israel_n so_o derive_v to_o the_o priest_n but_o immediate_o from_o christ_n seat_v in_o aaron_n and_o his_o son_n object_n yea_o they_o be_v give_v the_o church_n intuitu_fw-la eiusdem_fw-la tanquam_fw-la finis_fw-la &_o totius_fw-la answ_n i_o but_o this_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o power_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v

in_o the_o church_n the_o church_n shall_v not_o only_o call_v they_o but_o make_v they_o out_o of_o virtue_n and_o power_n receive_v into_o herself_o then_o shall_v the_o church_n have_v a_o true_a

consent_n of_o the_o people_n with_o they_o not_o that_o they_o have_v joint_a power_n of_o the_o key_n with_o they_o but_o because_o they_o sustain_v the_o person_n of_o the_o spouse_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o can_v be_v otherwise_o deal_v with_o without_o open_a dishonour_n in_o such_o thing_n which_o belong_v in_o common_a to_o the_o whole_a congregation_n now_o to_o answer_v the_o
