the_o scripture_n 1._o whether_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n do_v establish_v such_o a_o stand_a judicature_n in_o the_o church_n to_o put_v a_o end_n to_o all_o controversy_n which_o shall_v arise_v about_o matter_n of_o faith_n we_o do_v not_o question_v but_o christ_n may_v have_v do_v it_o if_o he_o have_v please_v and_o there_o be_v no_o doubt_n he_o foresee_v all_o those_o inconvenience_n which_o be_v now_o object_v against_o the_o want_n of_o it_o but_o the_o point_n before_o we_o be_v whether_o christ_n who_o alone_o can_v do_v it_o have_v declare_v this_o to_o be_v his_o will_n and_o pleasure_n we_o be_v then_o to_o consider_v that_o this_o be_v a_o point_n of_o so_o great_a consequence_n the_o commission_n for_o such_o a_o court_n of_o judicature_n in_o the_o church_n ought_v to_o be_v deliver_v in_o the_o plain_a and_o clear_a word_n that_o may_v be_v for_o otherwise_o this_o be_v to_o beget_v controversy_n instead_o of_o put_v a_o end_n to_o they_o when_o god_n under_o the_o law_n establish_v a_o supreme_a court_n of_o appeal_n as_o to_o the_o difference_n which_o may_v arise_v about_o the_o law_n he_o tell_v they_o where_o that_o court_n

will_n of_o god_n and_o they_o have_v no_o more_o to_o do_v but_o to_o go_v up_o to_o the_o place_n which_o god_n do_v choose_v viz._n jerusalem_n and_o there_o be_v never_o any_o dispute_n
