such_o a_o people_n for_o the_o neglect_n or_o change_v of_o it_o if_o ever_o god_n will_v have_v do_v this_o we_o may_v most_o reasonable_o expect_v it_o under_o the_o jewish_a oeconomy_n in_o which_o every_o minute_n circumstance_n be_v so_o strict_o command_v by_o god_n as_o have_v something_o sacred_a and_o typical_a in_o it_o and_o yet_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v that_o every_o deviation_n from_o their_o rule_n though_o in_o some_o very_a material_a part_n of_o it_o do_v provoke_v god_n to_o cast_v they_o off_o god_n have_v appoint_v a_o certain_a place_n where_o they_o shall_v offer_v their_o sacrifice_n to_o he_o and_o when_o this_o place_n be_v actual_o fix_v and_o determine_v it_o be_v unlawful_a for_o they_o to_o offer_v sacrifice_n in_o any_o other_o place_n and_o yet_o when_o the_o temple_n at_o jerusalem_n be_v build_v which_o be_v the_o only_a place_n god_n have_v appoint_v for_o sacrifice_n the_o people_n continue_v to_o offer_v sacrifice_n in_o their_o high_a place_n even_o in_o the_o reign_n of_o very_o good_a king_n and_o though_o this_o practice_n be_v condemn_v yet_o it_o do_v not_o un-church_n they_o god_n have_v appoint_v aaron_n family_n for_o the_o priesthood_n 12.31_o 1_o king_n 12.31_o and_o yet_o jeroboam_n make_v priest_n of_o other_o tribe_n and_o family_n and_o the_o law_n which_o express_o appoint_v aaron_n and_o his_o son_n for_o the_o priest_n office_n only_o threaten_v death_n against_o usurper_n 3.10_o numb_a 3.10_o thou_o shall_v appoint_v aaron_n and_o his_o son_n and_o they_o shall_v wait_v on_o the_o priest_n office_n and_o the_o strange_a that_o come_v nigh_o shall_v be_v put_v to_o death_n god_n do_v not_o reject_v the_o church_n of_o israel_n for_o the_o irregularity_n of_o their_o priest_n but_o own_v they_o for_o his_o church_n and_o people_n many_o year_n after_o this_o till_o they_o defile_v themselves_o with_o the_o worship_n of_o baal_n and_o other_o heathen_a go_n and_o josephus_n

priest_n and_o yet_o i_o shall_v be_v loath_a to_o say_v that_o such_o a_o irregular_a promotion_n do_v un-church_n the_o jewish_a church_n and_o whoever_o consider_v in_o what_o manner_n the_o high-priest_n be_v advance_v and_o depose_v even_o in_o the_o time_n of_o our_o saviour_n possible_o may_v think_v it_o as_o inconsistent_a with_o the_o first_o institution_n of_o that_o office_n as_o the_o irregular_a ordination_n of_o presbyter_n 2._o we_o ought_v especial_o to_o consider_v the_o force_n and_o power_n of_o necessity_n to_o dispense_v even_o with_o divine_a institution_n no_o necessity_n can_v dispense_v with_o the_o eternal_a law_n of_o good_a and_o evil_n because_o no_o necessity_n can_v be_v plead_v to_o justify_v man_n in_o sin_n though_o in_o some_o case_n it_o may_v extenuate_v the_o evil_a and_o guilt_n of_o it_o for_o the_o internal_a necessity_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o thing_n be_v strong_a than_o any_o external_a necessity_n can_v be_v no_o external_a force_n can_v compel_v man_n to_o sin_n which_o be_v a_o act_n of_o their_o own_o will_n and_o choice_n and_o the_o obligation_n to_o virtue_n remain_v in_o the_o most_o extreme_a necessity_n but_o in_o positive_a institution_n which_o depend_v upon_o the_o will_n of_o god_n we_o find_v necessity_n have_v often_o dispense_v and_o that_o with_o god_n allowance_n and_o approbation_n as_o to_o give_v some_o few_o example_n of_o it_o 1._o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o divine_a worship_n have_v dispense_v with_o positive_a institution_n thus_o in_o hezekiah_n sacrifice_n the_o priest_n be_v too_o few_o 29.34.35.11_o 2_o ch_n run_v 29.34.35.11_o the_o levite_n assist_v they_o in_o do_v the_o priest_n work_n in_o slay_v the_o sacrifice_n and_o the_o like_a we_o may_v see_v in_o josiah_n passeover_n and_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n we_o may_v suppose_v that_o if_o the_o family_n of_o aaron_n have_v fail_v other_o family_n of_o the_o tribe_n of_o levi_n may_v have_v succeed_v into_o the_o priest_n office_n though_o against_o a_o positive_a law_n for_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o divine_a worship_n be_v much_o great_a and_o more_o unalterable_a than_o the_o confinement_n of_o the_o priesthood_n to_o a_o certain_a family_n and_o where_o the_o divine_a providence_n make_v a_o necessity_n necessity_n will_v make_v a_o priest_n and_o therefore_o i_o think_v a_o late_a learned_a and_o ingenious_a author_n who_o dispute_v so_o earnest_o that_o the_o power_n of_o administer_a sacrament_n must_v be_v derive_v from_o god_n and_o that_o this_o power_n now_o be_v give_v only_o by_o episcopal_a ordination_n aught_o to_o have_v distinguish_v between_o the_o ordinary_a and_o extraordinary_a conveyance_n of_o power_n whoever_o administer_v in_o holy_a thing_n must_v derive_v his_o power_n from_o god_n because_o he_o act_n in_o god_n name_n and_o when_o it_o may_v be_v do_v he_o must_v derive_v his_o power_n in_o such_o a_o way_n as_o god_n have_v appoint_v by_o a_o positive_a law_n and_o whoever_o reject_v this_o way_n without_o necessity_n can_v have_v no_o valid_a power_n but_o whatever_o he_o do_v be_v null_a and_o void_a as_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o all_o ordination_n of_o presbyter_n be_v in_o opposition_n to_o and_o contempt_n of_o their_o bishop_n as_o i_o think_v that_o learned_a man_n have_v sufficient_o prove_v but_o the_o case_n of_o necessity_n ought_v to_o be_v consider_v it_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o all_o positive_a institution_n to_o oblige_v in_o case_n of_o necessity_n and_o i_o take_v that_o to_o be_v a_o case_n of_o necessity_n when_o episcopal_a order_n can_v be_v have_v and_o yet_o the_o church_n must_v sail_v without_o they_o bishop_n be_v for_o the_o church_n not_o the_o church_n for_o bishop_n and_o when_o the_o ordinary_a conveyance_n of_o this_o authority_n fail_v necessity_n legitimate_v other_o extraordinary_a way_n we_o have_v all_o the_o reason_n in_o the_o world_n to_o presume_v in_o such_o case_n that_o god_n will_v confirm_v and_o ratify_v the_o choice_n and_o designation_n of_o the_o people_n much_o more_o the_o ordination_n of_o the_o presbytery_n where_o episcopal_a ordination_n can_v be_v have_v for_o i_o see_v no_o reason_n why_o presbyter_n may_v not_o do_v the_o bishop_n work_n in_o case_n of_o necessity_n as_o well_o as_o levite_n do_v the_o work_n of_o priest_n 2._o the_o necessity_n of_o man_n life_n dispense_v with_o positive_a law_n upon_o this_o account_n our_o saviour_n justify_v david_n eat_v the_o shewbread_n when_o he_o be_v a_o hunger_a which_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o he_o to_o eat_v 26._o mark_v 2.24_o 25_o 26._o but_o for_o the_o priest_n and_o his_o disciple_n pluck_v the_o ear_n of_o corn_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n upon_o this_o principle_n matathias_n allow_v the_o jew_n to_o fight_v on_o the_o sabbath-day_n 7._o joseph_n antiq_fw-la l._n 12._o cap._n 7._o in_o case_n they_o be_v assault_v by_o their_o enemy_n and_o our_o saviour_n resolve_v all_o such_o case_n by_o that_o general_a principle_n i_o will_v have_v mercy_n and_o not_o sacrifice_n and_o certain_o mercy_n to_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v as_o considerable_a as_o any_o temporal_a concernment_n 3._o but_o we_o may_v further_o consider_v what_o force_n and_o authority_n the_o presumptive_a allowance_n of_o the_o church_n have_v in_o such_o case_n the_o christian_a church_n in_o all_o age_n have_v think_v fit_a to_o dispense_v with_o positive_a institution_n in_o case_n of_o necessity_n and_o by_o she_o own_o approbation_n and_o authority_n to_o supply_v the_o defect_n and_o irregularity_n of_o such_o administration_n and_o therefore_o certain_o do_v believe_v she_o have_v power_n to_o do_v it_o and_o indeed_o if_o there_o be_v not_o sufficient_a authority_n in_o the_o church_n to_o provide_v for_o case_n of_o necessity_n the_o power_n of_o the_o church_n be_v more_o defective_a than_o of_o any_o other_o society_n of_o man_n and_o can_v in_o many_o case_n without_o a_o miracle_n preserve_v she_o own_o be_v and_o therefore_o if_o the_o church_n may_v be_v presume_v in_o case_n of_o necessity_n to_o allow_v person_n to_o perform_v such_o religious_a office_n and_o ministry_n as_o otherwise_o they_o be_v not_o qualify_v to_o perform_v this_o very_a allowance_n supply_v the_o incapacity_n of_o the_o person_n and_o do_v virtual_o confer_v that_o authority_n on_o he_o which_o in_o other_o case_n he_o have_v not_o now_o it_o be_v not_o only_o high_o reasonable_a to_o presume_v that_o the_o catholic_n church_n will_v rather_o allow_v the_o ordination_n of_o presbyter_n though_o they_o be_v not_o regular_o qualify_v for_o that_o office_n where_o there_o be_v no_o bishop_n to_o ordain_v than_o that_o a_o considerable_a member_n of_o the_o christian_a church_n shall_v want_v a_o succession_n of_o pastor_n to_o
communion_n and_o not_o to_o pretend_v to_o give_v a_o perfect_a catalogue_n of_o fundamental_o i_o shall_v only_o give_v a_o taste_n of_o this_o in_o some_o few_o particular_n which_o have_v give_v occasion_n to_o the_o fierce_a dispute_n in_o the_o christian_a church_n 1._o i_o shall_v begin_v with_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o holy_a trinity_n which_o have_v in_o all_o age_n be_v account_v a_o fundamental_a article_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n and_o have_v as_o good_a reason_n to_o be_v think_v so_o as_o any_o other_o since_o we_o be_v baptize_v into_o this_o belief_n for_o to_o baptize_v into_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n and_o of_o the_o son_n and_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n according_a to_o the_o most_o proper_a signification_n of_o the_o word_n and_o the_o exposition_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n signify_v to_o baptize_v into_o the_o faith_n and_o worship_n of_o the_o sacred_a trinity_n as_o i_o think_v i_o can_v easy_o show_v at_o large_a be_v it_o proper_a upon_o this_o occasion_n and_o how_o essential_a this_o belief_n be_v to_o the_o right_a understanding_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o man_n salvation_n by_o jesus_n christ_n which_o be_v the_o comprehensive_a fundamental_a of_o christian_a religion_n will_v easy_o be_v acknowledge_v by_o any_o man_n who_o careful_o consider_v how_o each_o person_n in_o the_o ever_o bless_a trinity_n be_v

the_o whole_a christian_a church_n and_o every_o sincere_a member_n of_o it_o as_o a_o abide_a principle_n of_o sanctification_n and_o a_o new_a life_n the_o holy_a spirit_n according_o come_v and_o

body_n into_o immortal_a life_n so_o that_o each_o person_n in_o the_o sacred_a trinity_n be_v peculiar_o concern_v in_o the_o salvation_n of_o mankind_n and_o we_o can_v true_o believe_v the_o great_a fundamental_a doctrine_n of_o salvation_n by_o christ_n without_o the_o belief_n of_o the_o holy_a trinity_n of_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n one_o eternal_a and_o infinite_a god_n the_o godhead_n of_o the_o father_n be_v acknowledge_v by_o all_o but_o whoever_o deny_v the_o godhead_n of_o the_o son_n and_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n overthrow_v the_o whole_a doctrine_n of_o

who_o make_v christ_n to_o be_v either_o the_o most_o excellent_a creature_n as_o the_o arian_n do_v or_o a_o mere_a man_n as_o the_o socinian_o do_v mighty_o lessen_v the_o grace_n and_o goodness_n of_o god_n to_o sinner_n which_o be_v represent_v as_o such_o a_o stupendous_a act_n of_o love_n that_o god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n now_o if_o this_o only_o beget_v son_n be_v only_o the_o most_o glorious_a and_o excellent_a creature_n especial_o if_o he_o be_v but_o a_o mere_a man_n the_o love_n and_o the_o design_n be_v not_o so_o stupendous_a and_o astonish_a for_o god_n have_v a_o equal_a propriety_n in_o all_o his_o creature_n and_o it_o be_v no_o such_o prize_v mystery_n that_o a_o good_a god_n shall_v give_v one_o of_o his_o creature_n though_o never_o so_o excellent_a especial_o if_o he_o be_v but_o one_o excellent_a man_n for_o the_o redmption_n of_o so_o many_o million_o especial_o when_o he_o promise_v to_o reward_v this_o

wonderful_a thus_o it_o sound_v very_o odd_o for_o a_o creature_n to_o be_v the_o saviour_n of_o mankind_n to_o be_v the_o object_n of_o a_o religious_a faith_n and_o hope_v and_o trust_v and_o dependence_n the_o worship_n of_o christ_n can_v be_v divine_a worship_n if_o he_o be_v not_o god_n and_o a_o make_v god_n be_v a_o contradiction_n in_o the_o term_n unless_o we_o mean_v only_o a_o

and_o expiation_n for_o sin_n and_o therefore_o the_o socinian_o who_o deny_v christ_n to_o be_v god_n be_v very_o consistent_a with_o themselves_o in_o deny_v his_o satisfaction_n a_o creature_n be_v
