A73049	Englands pvrginge fire Conteyninge two petitions, the one to the Kinges most excellent Majesty, the other to the High Courte of Parliament held at this tyme in England. Shewinge in diverse perticulers, how the Church in England might be ordered, yet more conformably to the Will of God reveiled in his worde then at this day it is. Herewithall is declared, the evell and lamentable effects of our vnable and negligent ministers: and the happy fruict of our learned and painefull pastors. A worke most needefull for theise tymes, as servinge to turne away the wrath and iudgements of God from this lande, through the removinge, (accordinge to the advertisements herein given) such disorders and evells, as for which the wrath of God may be, and is, kindled against this Land, and the church therein.

the_o continuance_n of_o those_o huge_a extent_n whereof_o we_o read_v then_o as_o necessary_o many_o arch-bishopdomes_a yea_o patriarchdome_n must_v be_v comprise_v therein_o so_o the_o bishop_n of_o

arch-bishop_n be_v place_v therein_o without_o subiugate_a the_o one_o under_o the_o other_o so_o those_o ancient_a extent_n of_o bound_n aught_o with_o the_o increase_n of_o the_o conversion_n of_o

as_o he_o be_v to_o take_v a_o new_a title_n so_o also_o he_o enter_v into_o a_o new_a ministration_n never_o ordain_v by_o the_o lord_n if_o any_o say_v have_v not_o every_o snccessor_n right_a to_o retain_v the_o bownd_n of_o his_o predecessor_n jurisdiction_n i_o answer_v yes_o where_o there_o be_v no_o prejudice_n thereby_o to_o the_o church_n and_o to_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n but_o when_o retayninge_v the_o same_o he_o must_v necessary_o rule_v over_o they_o who_o god_n by_o his_o ordinance_n set_v next_o unto_o apostle_n he_o than_o subvert_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n so_o long_o as_o he_o can_v make_v himself_o a_o apostle_n neither_o cann_v any_o one_o succeedinge_v in_o the_o seat_n of_o a_o apostle_n confer_v upon_o he_o a_o apostle_n dignity_n and_o office_n for_o this_o be_v to_o make_v such_o a_o one_o a_o apostle_n but_o we_o have_v good_a cause_n to_o ask_v of_o such_o a_o one_o the_o sign_n of_o his_o apostleship_n 2._o cor._n 12_o 12._o i_o conclude_v therefore_o that_o those_o extent_n of_o jurisdiction_n which_o carry_v with_o they_o a_o bringinge_v into_o the_o church_n power_n and_o ministration_n above_o that_o of_o arch-bishop_n be_v

polity_n which_o there_o god_n manife_v to_o his_o church_n and_o indeed_o because_o of_o the_o huge_a extent_n of_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n jurisdiction_n we_o find_v that_o above_o arch_a bishopp_n be_v patriarch_n as_o also_o cardinal_n as_o now_o cardinal_n be_v &_o pope_n legate_n and_o a_o rabble_n of_o other_o who_o all_o serve_v rather_o as_o minister_n of_o this_o corruption_n of_o ecclesiastical_a polity_n warrant_v by_o god_n then_o of_o the_o church_n &_o of_o the_o gospel_n for_o how_o many_o be_v the_o officer_n which_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n need_v for_o to_o serve_v he_o only_o in_o the_o execution_n of_o so_o large_a a_o jurisdiction_n as_o now_o he_o exercise_v even_o so_o proportionable_o be_v it_o with_o every_o patriarch_n yea_o with_o every_o arch-bisshop_a when_o he_o have_v a_o jurisdiction_n so_o far_o extend_v four_o as_o that_o neither_o he_o can_v personal_o visit_v convenient_o the_o part_n of_o his_o charge_n nor_o they_o of_o his_o charge_n cann_v convenient_o make_v accusation_n unto_o he_o if_o the_o parishional_a or_o episcopal_a goverment_n fail_v in_o execution_n of_o justice_n but_o now_o seinge_v god_n have_v give_v so_o bless_a testimony_n to_o the_o reforminge_v of_o thing_n by_o his_o word_n in_o scripture_n why_o shall_v not_o such_o office_n be_v cut_v off_o as_o superfluous_a and_o just_o offensive_a which_o exercise_n any_o authority_n over_o the_o arch-bishop_n of_o the_o christian_a church_n shall_v we_o not_o think_v that_o the_o lord_n expect_v a_o reformation_n even_o herein_o aswell_o as_o in_o doctrine_n

therefore_o if_o the_o scripture_n show_v that_o the_o office_n of_o timothy_n &_o titus_n be_v the_o high_a ordinary_a office_n in_o the_o church_n after_o apostle_n cease_v as_o be_v in_o the_o

shall_v not_o arch-bishopps_a be_v acknowledge_v as_o succeeder_n into_o their_o office_n and_o consequent_o to_o be_v the_o high_a ecclesiastical_a officer_n which_o god_n send_v the_o church_n with_o among_o the_o nation_n after_o his_o take_v away_o of_o apostle_n if_o it_o be_v say_v that_o those_o who_o succeed_v into_o the_o seat_n of_o timothy_n or_o titus_n and_o other_o like_v they_o be_v patriarch_n not_o arch-bishopps_a than_o i_o demand_n what_o manner_n bishop_n cann_v any_o prove_v that_o either_o timothy_n or_o titus_n or_o the_o next_o successor_n rule_v over_o whither_o be_v they_o archbishos_a or_o only_a bishopp_n of_o city_n sure_o the_o great_a evidence_n of_o pure_a and_o most_o ancient_a tradition_n be_v that_o those_o of_o those_o seat_n be_v first_o account_v

so_o sure_o the_o puttinge_v this_o ecclesiastical_a power_n and_o government_n into_o the_o elder_n of_o the_o laiety_n will_v both_o occasion_n their_o search_n more_o diligent_o into_o the_o word_n of_o god_n thereby_o to_o increase_v their_o knowledge_n of_o the_o divine_a will_n and_o also_o their_o careful_a take_v heed_n unto_o their_o manner_n that_o they_o give_v not_o offence_n to_o

and_o not_o be_v employ_v in_o other_o office_n of_o the_o kingdom_n i_o answer_v first_o that_o there_o be_v great_a difference_n between_o the_o ministration_n of_o the_o word_n and_o the_o ministration_n of_o government_n only_o the_o first_o be_v not_o to_o be_v leave_v off_o the_o second_o may_v without_o offence_n for_o the_o word_n of_o god_n have_v lay_v no_o such_o bond_n on_o

from_o its_o employment_n in_o office_n needful_a thereunto_o therefore_o we_o may_v not_o conceive_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v send_v such_o a_o government_n ecclesiastical_a into_o they_o as_o which_o shall_v bring_v with_o it_o such_o a_o inconvenience_n and_o mischief_n i_o conclude_v therefore_o that_o these_o lay_v governor_n be_v not_o bind_v by_o the_o lord_n to_o continue_v ever_o in_o their_o office_n but_o now_o may_v serve_v in_o the_o government_n of_o the_o church_n and_o another_o time_n not_o thus_o have_v i_o dread_a sovereign_n be_v the_o more_o prolix_a in_o my_o
