church_n he_o cease_v not_o for_o all_o that_o to_o be_v a_o heretic_n second_o s._n paul_n declare_v that_o he_o 12.6_o rom._n 12.6_o who_o have_v the_o gift_n of_o prophecy_n aught_o to_o prophecy_n

which_o the_o romishe_a catholic_n make_n and_o bring_v forth_o upon_o the_o scripture_n we_o shall_v find_v at_o the_o least_o for_o the_o great_a part_n that_o they_o allege_v or_o bring_v nothing_o less_o than_o the_o right_n &_o true_a sense_n thereof_o not_o follow_v the_o analogy_n &_o proportion_n which_o be_v require_v &_o namely_o when_o the_o question_n be_v to_o expound_v these_o word_n of_o jesus_n christ_n 2d_o matt._n 26_o 2d_o this_o be_v my_o body_n for_o see_v that_o they_o tie_v jesus_n christ_n here_o below_o on_o the_o earth_n mean_v also_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v bodily_a

be_v above_o in_o heaven_n 3.21_o act._n 3.21_o &_o that_o he_o must_v of_o necessity_n in_o respect_n of_o his_o body_n be_v therein_o contain_v &_o remain_v there_o until_o the_o last_o day_n that_o he_o shall_v come_v to_o judge_v the_o quick_a and_o the_o dead_a it_o follow_v well_o that_o in_o such_o a_o exposition_n they_o go_v far_o astray_o and_o wander_v very_o much_o from_o the_o

that_o very_a often_o they_o propound_v &_o teach_v for_o doctrine_n man_n tradition_n which_o be_v not_o only_o not_o draw_v or_o take_v from_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o which_o be_v more_o be_v

according_a to_o the_o form_n and_o ordinance_n of_o jesus_n christ_n but_o they_o add_v and_o join_v to_o they_o in_o the_o ministration_n thereof_o infinite_a abuse_n and_o superstition_n &_o do_v corrupt_v they_o through_o a_o certain_a kind_n of_o idolatry_n which_o be_v detestable_a and_o full_a of_o ungodliness_n for_o that_o i_o may_v speak_v nothing_o of_o the_o five_o sacrament_n which_o they_o have_v add_v of_o their_o own_o let_v we_o consider_v in_o what_o purity_n baptism_n and_o the_o holy_a supper_n be_v administer_v amongst_o they_o first_o be_v this_o a_o small_a abuse_n to_o apply_v or_o minister_v baptism_n to_o thing_n without_o sense_n as_o to_o bell_n which_o be_v not_o ordain_v but_o for_o reasonable_a creature_n be_v this_o a_o sleight_n profane_v thereof_o to_o join_v to_o this_o sacrament_n oil_n spittle_n salt_n and_o other_o such_o thing_n as_o though_o it_o do_v not_o behoove_v we_o to_o be_v content_a with_o that_o simplicity_n wherein_o and_o wherewith_o jesus_n christ_n have_v command_v his_o apostle_n to_o administer_v the_o same_o and_o touch_v the_o holy_a supper_n when_o they_o cause_v man_n to_o worship_v a_o morsel_n of_o bread_n for_o jesus_n christ_n when_o they_o deny_v to_o the_o people_n the_o sign_n of_o wine_n when_o the_o priest_n eat_v all_o by_o himself_o so_o that_o there_o be_v not_o any_o communion_n or_o

fall_v out_o thus_o we_o be_v to_o make_v this_o conclusion_n to_o wit_n that_o see_v it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v pure_o preach_v and_o expound_v and_o the_o sacrament_n lawful_o administer_v to_o the_o end_n that_o man_n may_v hold_v &_o take_v they_o for_o right_a and_o certain_a mark_n of_o the_o true_a church_n &_o that_o we_o be_v certain_a and_o it_o manifest_o appear_v that_o the_o contrary_n be_v find_v amongst_o the_o romishe_a catholic_n it_o follow_v very_o well_o that_o these_o be_v not_o to_o be_v attribute_v to_o they_o although_o they_o will_v make_v man_n believe_v that_o these_o mark_n do_v agree_v unto_o they_o and_o their_o church_n as_o well_o as_o unto_o us._n but_o we_o will_v dispute_v more_o large_o in_o a_o other_o

that_o some_o will_v demand_v be_v not_o the_o succession_n and_o ordinary_a call_n of_o pastor_n a_o mark_n also_o of_o the_o true_a church_n yea_o one_o of_o the_o principal_a mark_n i_o answer_v that_o the_o romish_a catholic_n do_v affirm_v so_o indeed_o for_o this_o be_v that_o which_o they_o common_o object_v unto_o we_o to_o weaken_v our_o call_n by_o be_v not_o able_a in_o the_o rest_n to_o find_v any_o thing_n to_o say_v or_o set_v against_o the_o doctrine_n which_o we_o preach_v unless_o they_o entangle_v themselves_o in_o infinite_a contradiction_n and_o manifest_a absurdity_n but_o in_o the_o first_o place_n concern_v succession_n i_o demand_v what_o this_o be_v which_o they_o mean_v there_o i_o suppose_v that_o it_o be_v not_o such_o a_o succession_n as_o be_v from_o the_o father_n to_o the_o son_n as_o it_o have_v be_v heretofore_o in_o the_o line_n and_o race_n of_o aaron_n as_o to_o say_v that_o he_o shall_v be_v a_o priest_n that_o be_v the_o son_n of_o a_o priest_n for_o so_o they_o may_v overmuch_o discover_v and_o unfold_v the_o villainy_n of_o their_o high_a priest_n but_o that_o they_o mean_v a_o continual_a succession_n of_o bishop_n and_o pastor_n succeed_v one_o a_o other_o even_o from_o the_o time_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n but_o where_o be_v this_o to_o be_v show_v that_o they_o have_v find_v that_o such_o a_o succession_n

and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o have_v be_v very_o fit_a yea_o necessary_a if_o the_o succession_n whereof_o we_o speak_v have_v be_v whole_o require_v in_o a_o bishop_n or_o pastor_n to_o make_v his_o vocation_n sure_a certain_a and_o lawful_a but_o that_o we_o may_v not_o speak_v confuse_o of_o this_o point_n we_o must_v distinguish_v between_o the_o succession_n of_o person_n and_o that_o which_o be_v of_o the_o chair_n and_o place_n and_o between_o the_o succession_n of_o doctrine_n and_o office_n as_o concern_v the_o succession_n of_o doctrine_n we_o say_v that_o it_o be_v altogether_o on_o our_o side_n and_o no_o whit_n at_o all_o on_o the_o romishe_a catholic_n side_n for_o we_o make_v profession_n to_o teach_v the_o pure_a word_n of_o god_n alone_o follow_v therein_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n whereas_o they_o of_o the_o romish_a church_n stay_v themselves_o upon_o their_o invention_n teach_v for_o doctrine_n the_o tradition_n and_o commandment_n of_o man_n 15.9_o matt_n 15.9_o which_o thing_n jesus_n christ_n express_o forbid_v and_o as_o touch_v that_o succession_n which_o concern_v the_o execution_n of_o the_o office_n or_o of_o all_o the_o charge_n and_o duty_n of_o pastor_n which_o consist_v in_o preach_v the_o gospel_n pure_o in_o administer_a the_o sacrament_n lawful_o in_o care_v for_o the_o poor_a in_o visit_v the_o sick_a in_o redress_v offence_n in_o exhort_v comfort_v teach_v reprove_v and_o such_o like_a exercise_n truth_n itself_o and_o experience_n do_v sufficient_o show_v who_o do_v indeed_o and_o very_o succeed_v the_o apostle_n therein_o whether_o the_o priest_n of_o the_o romish_a church_n or_o we_o saint_n augustine_n have_v sometime_o say_v that_o the_o name_n of_o a_o bishop_n dei_fw-la lib._n 19_o cap._n 19_o de_fw-la civitat_fw-la dei_fw-la be_v a_o name_n of_o charge_n or_o burden_n and_o not_o of_o ●●nour_n &_o that_o he_o indeed_o be_v a_o bishop_n which_o desire_v to_o profit_v his_o flock_n in_o teach_v they_o and_o not_o simple_o to_o bear_v rule_n over_o the_o same_o also_o in_o a_o other_o place_n we_o be_v not_o

when_o jesus_n christ_n ordain_v his_o twelve_o apostle_n he_o ordain_v they_o for_o a_o time_n only_o and_o after_o they_o he_o have_v not_o substitute_v or_o ordain_v other_o in_o their_o place_n to_o have_v so_o ample_a and_o large_a a_o charge_n as_o they_o be_v likewise_o we_o read_v not_o that_o the_o apostle_n establish_v other_o apostle_n in_o their_o steed_n but_o only_o elder_n &_o ancient_n that_o be_v to_o say_v pastor_n and_o minister_n who_o have_v their_o calling_n charge_n &_o office_n limit_v wherefore_o albeit_o s._n peter_n may_v well_o be_v a_o universal_a bishop_n yet_o so_o it_o be_v that_o those_o that_o come_v after_o he_o can_v right_o attribute_v unto_o themselves_o such_o a_o office_n but_o to_o conclude_v by_o what_o mark_n can_v the_o pope_n brag_v that_o he_o be_v the_o successor_n of_o peter_n who_o office_n he_o do_v not_o any_o manner_n of_o way_n execute_v and_o who_o he_o follow_v not_o in_o any_o thing_n whatsoever_o chap._n viii_o

2.20_o ephes_n 2.20_o but_o the_o papacy_n or_o popedom_n have_v not_o any_o such_o foundation_n because_o that_o it_o have_v overthrow_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n as_o may_v plain_o appear_v by_o the_o examination_n of_o their_o tradition_n the_o popedom_n therefore_o be_v not_o the_o true_a church_n the_o second_o reason_n in_o the_o true_a &_o catholic_a church_n the_o truth_n shall_v reign_v &_o bear_v sway_n for_o s._n paul_n say_v 3.7.15_o 1._o tim._n 3.7.15_o the_o church_n be_v the_o pillar_n and_o ground_n of_o truth_n but_o in_o the_o papacy_n truth_n

the_o sixth_o reason_n though_o it_o be_v that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v the_o true_a church_n yet_o it_o can_v not_o be_v but_o a_o particular_a church_n even_o as_o the_o church_n of_o
