A45129	The healing attempt being a representation of the government of the Church of England, according to the judgment of her bishops unto the end of Q. Elizabeths reign, humbly tendred to the consideration of the thirty commissionated for a consult about ecclesiastical affairs in order to a comprehension, and published in hopes of such a moderation of episcopacy, that the power be kept within the line of our first reformers, and the excercise of it reduced to the model of Arch-Bishop Usher.	Humfrey, John, 1621-1719.	1689 (1689)	Wing H3679; ESTC R20326	63,242	94

very_o many_o church_n as_o the_o number_n of_o christian_n grow_v and_o have_v their_o particular_a assembly_n and_o meeting_n in_o many_o city_n and_o country_n within_o every_o one_o of_o their_o circuit_n they_o place_v pastor_n in_o every_o congregation_n they_o ordain_v certain_a apostolical_a man_n to_o be_v chief_a assister_n unto_o they_o who_o they_o place_v some_o one_o in_o this_o particular_a country_n and_o some_o other_o in_o sundry_a city_n to_o have_v the_o rule_n and_o oversight_n under_o they_o of_o the_o church_n there_o and_o to_o redress_v and_o supply_v such_o want_n as_o be_v needful_a and_o they_o themselves_o after_o a_o while_n and_o as_o they_o grow_v in_o age_n and_o escape_v the_o cruelty_n of_o tyrant_n remain_v for_o the_o most_o part_n in_o some_o head_n city_n within_o their_o compass_n to_o oversee_v they_o all_o both_o church_n pastor_n and_o bishop_n or_o superintendent_o and_o to_o give_v their_o direction_n as_o occasion_n require_v and_o as_o they_o think_v it_o convenient_a when_o any_o of_o these_o apostolical_a assistant_n or_o of_o the_o apostle_n themselves_o die_v there_o be_v ever_o some_o worthy_a man_n choose_v and_o appoint_v to_o succeed_v they_o in_o those_o city_n and_o country_n where_o they_o have_v remain_v for_o we_o may_v not_o idle_o dream_n that_o when_o they_o die_v the_o authority_n which_o be_v give_v they_o cease_v no_o more_o than_o we_o may_v that_o the_o authority_n of_o aaron_n and_o of_o his_o natural_a son_n expire_v with_o they_o beside_o it_o be_v manifest_a by_o all_o ecclesiastical_a history_n that_o many_o church_n be_v plant_v after_o their_o death_n and_o furthermore_o it_o can_v not_o be_v but_o that_o some_o church_n especial_o under_o those_o apostle_n that_o be_v soon_o put_v to_o death_n be_v when_o they_o die_v in_o the_o same_o case_n that_o crete_n be_v when_o titus_n be_v send_v thither_o and_o have_v therefore_o as_o much_o need_n of_o a_o titus_n as_o crete_n have_v furthermore_o who_o can_v be_v account_v to_o be_v well_o in_o his_o wit_n that_o will_v imagine_v that_o christ_n shall_v ordain_v such_o a_o authority_n but_o for_o some_o threescore_o year_n especial_o the_o same_o cause_n continue_v why_o it_o be_v first_o institute_v that_o be_v before_o nay_o i_o may_v bold_o say_v that_o there_o be_v great_a need_n for_o the_o continuance_n of_o it_o afterward_o for_o the_o apostle_n have_v so_o great_a power_n to_o work_v miracle_n and_o by_o their_o prayer_n to_o procure_v from_o god_n such_o strange_a execution_n of_o his_o pleasure_n upon_o the_o contemptuous_a as_o do_v fall_v upon_o ananias_n and_o his_o wife_n and_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o in_o like_a case_n sometime_o upon_o some_o other_o their_z ruling_n and_o command_v authority_n be_v not_o so_o necessary_a then_o as_o it_o be_v afterward_o when_o the_o power_n to_o work_v miracle_n cease_v but_o what_o shall_v i_o need_v to_o use_v many_o word_n in_o a_o matter_n so_o apparent_a after_o the_o death_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o of_o their_o assistant_n viz._n the_o bishop_n place_v by_o they_o as_o be_v mention_v the_o ecclesiastical_a history_n and_o the_o

whereupon_o they_o be_v call_v from_o all_o antiquity_n the_o apostle_n and_o apostolical_a man_n successor_n this_o inequality_n in_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n have_v be_v approve_v and_o
