each_o one_o with_o all_o his_o whole_a power_n he_o have_v receive_v from_o god_n since_o the_o very_o chief_a of_o his_o power_n which_o be_v to_o confer_v grace_n upon_o the_o ministerial_a act_n

bishop_n nor_o ever_o in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n how_o do_v you_o prove_v that_o by_o the_o law_n of_o christ_n one_o bishop_n be_v not_o superior_a to_o another_o christ_n make_v no_o head_n of_o

prefer_v a_o church_n before_o any_o one_o churchman_n though_o he_o be_v in_o she_o when_o he_o be_v against_o she_o but_o s._n paul_n say_v express_o that_o christ_n appoint_v in_o his_o church_n first_o apostle_n but_o not_o s._n peter_n first_o i_o marry_v sir_n now_o we_o be_v come_v to_o a_o argument_n indeed_o and_o it_o run_v thus_o according_a to_o s._n paul_n the_o apostle_n be_v the_o first_o rank_n or_o dignity_n in_o the_o church_n but_o s._n peter_n be_v none_o of_o that_o rank_n or_o dignity_n therefore_o he_o can_v not_o be_v first_o be_v not_o s._n peter_n then_o one_o of_o the_o apostle_n or_o will_v you_o make_v it_o run_v thus_o the_o apostle_n be_v the_o first_o rank_n or_o dignity_n in_o the_o church_n but_o s._n peter_n be_v not_o that_o rank_n or_o dignity_n therefore_o he_o be_v not_o first_o this_o be_v indeed_o the_o sure_a way_n because_o no_o one_o man_n can_v be_v reckon_v for_o a_o rank_n or_o dignity_n or_o so_o many_o person_n in_o the_o plural_a number_n this_o be_v a_o argument_n never_o yet_o think_v of_o in_o oxford_n or_o cambridg_n to_o prove_v they_o have_v no_o superior_a either_o over_o all_o or_o over_o any_o one_o college_n not_o over_o all_o for_o there_o be_v first_o college_n than_o hall_n than_o inn_n etc._n etc._n therefore_o the_o vicechancellor_n be_v not_o first_o not_o over_o one_o college_n for_o there_o be_v first_o fellow_n than_o scholar_n than_o pensioner_n etc._n etc._n and_o therefore_o mr._n such_o a_o one_o who_o be_v neither_o fellow_n scholar_n nor_o pensioner_n be_v not_o first_o so_o here_o christ_n faith_n s._n paul_n set_v in_o his_o church_n first_o of_o all_o apostle_n therefore_o faith_n our_o learned_a doctor_n not_o first_o s._n peter_n and_o secondary_o apostle_n but_o all_o the_o apostle_n be_v first_o the_o apostle_n be_v the_o first_o rank_n of_o dignity_n good_a sir_n but_o that_o rank_n have_v order_n in_o it_o too_o and_o so_o there_o may_v be_v place_n for_o a_o first_o

will_v you_o bring_v this_o for_o a_o argument_n of_o his_o not_o rule_v you_o be_v shrewd_o put_v to_o it_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n and_o if_o he_o rule_v and_o govern_v and_o manage_v all_o by_o common_a council_n he_o be_v the_o better_a superior_a for_o that_o but_o not_o therefore_o no_o superior_a will_v you_o admit_v no_o ruler_n but_o tyrant_n who_o do_v all_o by_o their_o own_o will_n but_o even_o some_o of_o their_o own_o popish_a writer_n do_v grant_v that_o the_o succession_n be_v not_o tie_v to_o rome_n as_o cusanus_fw-la soto_n canus_n driedo_n segovius_n what_o do_v that_o

only_o use_v two_o reason_n the_o first_o be_v that_o christ_n our_o lord_n will_v have_v the_o whole_a company_n of_o christian_n upon_o earth_n ever_o to_o be_v and_o remain_v one_o flock_n this_o i_o conceiv_o can_v never_o be_v except_o they_o be_v all_o under_o one_o visible_a pastor_n nor_o can_v it_o suffice_v to_o say_v here_o that_o they_o be_v all_o under_o one_o christ_n and_o one_o

they_o be_v govern_v be_v under_o one_o god_n the_o supreme_a king_n as_o the_o whole_a church_n be_v say_v to_o be_v under_o one_o christ_n but_o this_o make_v they_o not_o to_o be_v one_o kingdom_n nay_o those_o that_o have_v not_o a_o visible_a king_n be_v not_o any_o kingdom_n at_o all_o but_o a_o aristocracy_n only_o or_o commonwealth_n or_o wild_a straggler_n but_o if_o you_o will_v have_v no_o visible_a flock_n of_o christian_n upon_o earth_n you_o teach_v the_o quaker_n doctrine_n and_o abolish_v all_o government_n it_o be_v certain_a then_o that_o if_o the_o ecclesiastical_a government_n of_o each_o place_n do_v end_n in_o the_o bishop_n of_o that_o respective_a diocese_n as_o the_o dissuader_n talk_v that_o there_o must_v be_v then_o as_o many_o flock_n of_o christian_n as_o there_o be_v bishop_n upon_o earth_n which_o be_v not_o subordinate_a all_o of_o they_o to_o one_o general_a pastor_n can_v never_o bring_v their_o flock_n into_o one_o second_o be_v that_o such_o a_o polity_n and_o government_n must_v ever_o be_v preserve_v in_o christ_n church_n which_o himself_o set_v up_o and_o practise_v this_o be_v most_o certain_a for_o if_o that_o polity_n or_o body_n be_v change_v it_o be_v no_o more_o christ_n polity_n or_o christ_n body_n but_o that_o other_o whatever_o it_o be_v which_o be_v introduce_v in_o his_o place_n and_o the_o body_n of_o that_o

consequent_o all_o the_o law_n which_o do_v ever_o follow_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o government_n must_v alter_v with_o it_o thus_o it_o be_v with_o we_o here_o in_o england_n the_o other_o day_n when_o our_o government_n be_v change_v we_o be_v no_o more_o the_o body_n of_o william_n the_o conqueror_n or_o any_o polity_n institute_v by_o he_o but_o another_o polity_n or_o body_n set_v up_o by_o the_o rump-parliament_n and_o all_o our_o law_n become_v then_o liable_a to_o their_o arbitrary_a interpretation_n to_o be_v wrest_v as_o themselves_o please_v and_o they_o have_v be_v if_o we_o have_v continue_v a_o while_n long_o in_o that_o sad_a condition_n by_o degree_n utter_o abolish_v all_o this_o not_o our_o reason_n only_o but_o heavy_a experience_n will_v acknowledge_v for_o a_o

gather_v together_o from_o other_o visible_a company_n of_o jew_n and_o pagan_n and_o therefore_o must_v there_o still_o and_o ever_o be_v some_o one_o visible_a pastor_n over_o this_o one_o flock_n unto_o the_o world_n end_n for_o if_o that_o polity_n or_o body_n change_n then_o be_v it_o no_o more_o christ_n body_n but_o another_o thing_n and_o his_o law_n and_o religion_n will_v be_v then_o interpret_v according_a to_o the_o pleasure_n of_o those_o who_o first_o reject_v the_o government_n and_o of_o their_o follower_n afterward_o unto_o infinite_a and_o endless_a misery_n and_o that_o this_o polity_n or_o government_n be_v ever_o to_o remain_v in_o christ_n church_n on_o earth_n may_v be_v gather_v first_o by_o this_o that_o every_o wise_a legislatour_n know_v well_o enough_o

by_o they_o will_v natural_o follow_v his_o step_n therein_o so_o long_o as_o they_o mean_v to_o preserv_v the_o state_n he_o have_v establish_v now_o the_o apostle_n and_o all_o his_o disciple_n

all_o and_o therefore_o as_o soon_o as_o our_o lord_n speak_v to_o they_o of_o his_o own_o departure_n they_o begin_v all_o of_o they_o natural_o to_o think_v of_o one_o who_o shall_v succeed_v in_o
