we_o may_v easy_o believe_v any_o thing_n which_o we_o must_v not_o when_o our_o eternal_a welfare_n lie_v at_o stake_n before_o i_o have_v do_v i_o hope_v by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n to_o prove_v this_o first_o that_o the_o romish_a church_n have_v no_o supremacy_n over_o other_o church_n and_o that_o her_o bishop_n be_v no_o universal_a bishop_n nor_o primate_n of_o the_o christian_a church_n second_o i_o shall_v beat_v down_o the_o ground_n they_o go_v upon_o namely_o that_o peter_n be_v the_o prince_n of_o the_o apostle_n from_o who_o they_o pretend_v their_o supremacy_n to_o be_v derive_v three_o i_o intend_v to_o show_v how_o pope_n be_v no_o successor_n of_o peter_n neither_o 1._o of_o his_o doctrine_n nor_o 2._o of_o his_o seat_n or_o else_o he_o have_v be_v a_o

and_o of_o her_o bishop_n have_v before_o premise_v some_o thing_n against_o peter_n infalliblity_n i_o must_v not_o engage_v in_o the_o common_a place_n about_o the_o church_n which_o be_v of_o a_o large_a extent_n yet_o i_o ought_v to_o take_v notice_n how_o the_o word_n be_v sometime_o improper_o take_v for_o the_o temple_n or_o meet_v place_n and_o proper_o for_o the_o assembly_n or_o congregation_n of_o those_o who_o make_v part_n of_o the_o body_n of_o the_o universal_a church_n which_o be_v disperse_v all_o the_o world_n over_o and_o consist_v of_o all_o sert_n of_o man_n and_o

this_o universal_a church_n do_v subsist_v in_o the_o national_a once_o and_o these_o in_o the_o particular_a church_n the_o word_n church_n be_v from_o a_o greek_a word_n derive_v from_o another_o which_o signify_v to_o call_v from_o one_o place_n to_o another_o here_o we_o must_v observe_v the_o unreasonableness_n of_o the_o romish_a society_n which_o will_v be_v call_v the_o church_n exclusive_o to_o all_o that_o be_v not_o within_o her_o pale_a when_o there_o have_v always_o be_v the_o greek_a ethiopian_a and_o other_o church_n stand_v by_o themselves_o so_o now_o we_o have_v the_o protestant_n and_o reform_a church_n from_o the_o error_n of_o the_o romish_a which_o consist_v of_o several_a national_a once_o and_o though_o in_o some_o of_o the_o forename_a national_a church_n there_o be_v corruption_n yet_o in_o none_o great_a than_o in_o that_o of_o rome_n which_o all_o protestant_n one_o do_v charge_n with_o idolatry_n beside_o that_o church_n commit_v a_o

more_o than_o the_o jewish_a church_n be_v now_o what_o it_o once_o be_v here_o if_o i_o will_v enlarge_v i_o may_v divide_v my_o discourse_n into_o three_o branch_n first_o what_o the_o church_n be_v second_o what_o be_v the_o mark_n whereby_o to_o know_v she_o and_o three_o what_o be_v her_o authority_n and_o therein_o according_a to_o the_o etymology_n of_o the_o greek_a word_n for_o church_n

only_o of_o god_n elect_n for_o in_o the_o church_n be_v two_o different_a kind_n of_o man_n some_o be_v member_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o true_a church_n which_o be_v the_o house_n itself_o other_o be_v indeed_o in_o the_o house_n of_o god_n but_o be_v none_o of_o it_o like_o the_o straw_n among_o the_o wheat_n till_o they_o go_v out_o and_o be_v separate_v of_o this_o sort_n be_v all_o

purpose_n i_o may_v insist_v upon_o but_o for_o brevity_n sake_n i_o shall_v forbear_v to_o come_v to_o what_o i_o chief_o propose_v to_o speak_v of_o and_o that_o be_v first_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n which_o be_v but_o a_o particular_a one_o have_v no_o right_a of_o superiority_n or_o supremacy_n over_o any_o other_o particular_a church_n she_o have_v no_o patent_n for_o it_o what_o power_n she_o have_v in_o that_o kind_n be_v get_v by_o craft_n and_o usurpation_n and_o be_v since_o maintain_v by_o force_n and_o violence_n jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o head_n king_n and_o master_n of_o his_o church_n and_o they_o can_v out_o of_o his_o word_n or_o apostolical_a practice_n show_v that_o ever_o he_o give_v the_o romish_a church_n any_o such_o privilege_n or_o prerogative_n as_o i_o hope_v to_o show_v it_o somewhat_o lower_v it_o be_v but_o a_o human_a invention_n ecclesiastical_a history_n assure_v we_o that_o patriarch_n or_o bishop_n of_o antioch_n alexandria_n etc._n etc._n be_v independent_a from_o rome_n nay_o some_o of_o they_o sharp_o censure_v the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n indeed_o in_o the_o four_o century_n some_o jarring_n begin_v between_o he_o of_o rome_n and_o that_o of_o constantinople_n which_o be_v then_o the_o seat_n of_o the_o empire_n be_v become_v the_o new_a rome_n but_o all_o be_v much_o according_a to_o the_o temper_n of_o the_o bishop_n then_o in_o be_v and_o for_o a_o proof_n that_o no_o such_o prerogative_n belong_v to_o rome_n in_o the_o 6_o century_n we_o read_v how_o gregory_n the_o great_a bishop_n of_o the_o place_n declare_v that_o whosoever_o call_v himself_o universal_a bishop_n or_o bishop_n of_o bishop_n be_v the_o forerunner_n of_o antichrist_n though_o not_o long_o after_o his_o death_n that_o mystery_n of_o iniquity_n begin_v to_o be_v set_v up_o by_o a_o common_a agreement_n between_o phocas_n who_o have_v make_v away_o his_o master_n the_o emperor_n mauricius_n during_o a_o violent_a fit_a he_o have_v of_o the_o

ground_n of_o that_o usurpation_n and_o not_o any_o false_o suppose_a gift_n of_o constantine_n the_o great_a much_o less_o of_o christ_n it_o be_v observable_a how_o about_o the_o same_o time_n that_o mahomet_n begin_v his_o imposture_n the_o forenamed_a bishop_n of_o rome_n by_o virtue_n of_o a_o grant_n from_o phocas_n take_v upon_o he_o the_o proud_a title_n of_o universal_a bishop_n for_o the_o grant_n be_v make_v in_o 606_o which_o be_v the_o very_a year_n that_o mahomet_n retire_v to_o his_o cave_n to_o forge_v his_o imposture_n which_o in_o 608_o he_o begin_v to_o propagate_v at_o mecca_n and_o the_o successor_n of_o both_o endeavour_v by_o the_o same_o method_n that_o be_v craftiness_n lie_v fire_n and_o sword_n to_o propagate_v it_o and_o these_o be_v now_o the_o two_o great_a imposture_n in_o the_o world_n one_o in_o the_o east_n the_o other_o in_o the_o west_n and_o we_o know_v it_o to_o be_v the_o endeavour_n of_o all_o usurper_n to_o maintain_v themselves_o as_o much_o and_o as_o long_o as_o they_o can_v in_o their_o usurpation_n so_o that_o boniface_n successor_n be_v act_v by_o the_o same_o spirit_n of_o ambition_n as_o he_o have_v be_v and_o have_v meet_v with_o favourable_a conjuncture_n to_o settle_v and_o fix_v in_o that_o usurpation_n they_o enlarge_v it_o as_o much_o as_o they_o can_v and_o because_o to_o engage_v the_o conscience_n of_o man_n they_o will_v pretend_v to_o a_o divine_a right_n for_o this_o encroachment_n we_o must_v in_o the_o next_o place_n blow_v up_o and_o overthrow_v that_o imaginary_a ground_n of_o they_o which_o they_o fancy_n and_o will_v persuade_v people_n to_o have_v be_v derive_v to_o they_o from_o st._n peter_n but_o we_o say_v nemo_fw-la that_fw-mi quod_fw-la non_fw-la habet_fw-la no_o man_n can_v give_v what_o he_o have_v not_o peter_n never_o have_v any_o primacy_n or_o superiority_n over_o the_o other_o apostle_n and_o herein_o we_o go_v upon_o sure_a ground_n for_o all_o along_o we_o have_v scripture_n for_o it_o neither_o before_o our_o bless_a saviour_n death_n nor_o after_o his_o resurrection_n be_v any_o such_o title_n as_o prince_n of_o

right_o to_o it_o have_v not_o institute_v or_o to_o bring_v in_o a_o superiority_n when_o he_o have_v appoint_v and_o settle_v a_o equality_n so_o that_o if_o peter_n have_v no_o such_o a_o superiority_n as_o pope_n his_o imaginary_a successor_n pretend_v he_o have_v and_o from_o he_o to_o be_v derive_v unto_o they_o it_o follow_v there_o be_v in_o they_o no_o such_o thing_n but_o it_o be_v a_o mere_a imagination_n and_o usurpation_n of_o they_o at_o first_o rome_n be_v the_o seat_n of_o the_o empire_n the_o christian_a church_n in_o it_o be_v provide_v with_o bishop_n or_o pastor_n man_n of_o piety_n learning_n and_o best_a qualify_v as_o can_v be_v find_v and_o upon_o that_o account_n man_n may_v set_v a_o great_a value_n and_o esteem_v upon_o they_o show_v they_o a_o great_a respect_n and_o obedience_n because_o they_o high_o deserve_v it_o but_o in_o aftertime_n those_o who_o come_v be_v a_o quite_o different_a sort_n of_o man_n very_o short_a of_o their_o piety_n virtue_n and_o part_n yet_o out_o of_o pride_n and_o ambition_n that_o which_o have_v be_v render_v to_o the_o singular_a and_o extraordinary_a merit_n of_o the_o person_n they_o look_v upon_o as_o due_a to_o the_o place_n and_o so_o pretend_v to_o the_o same_o honour_n which_o they_o be_v not_o worthy_a of_o and_o as_o ambition_n be_v never_o satisfy_v and_o pride_n never_o say_v it_o be_v enough_o the_o father_n of_o pride_n infuse_v it_o more_o and_o more_o into_o their_o heart_n and_o suggest_v way_n and_o mean_n how_o to_o attain_v to_o and_o promote_v their_o ambitious_a end_n now_o i_o come_v to_o my_o three_o point_n which_o tend_v to_o show_v that_o the_o pope_n be_v no_o successor_n of_o peter_n the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v gather_v out_o of_o the_o gentile_n not_o out_o of_o the_o jew_n though_o there_o may_v happen_v to_o be_v some_o few_o now_o paul_n not_o peter_n be_v the_o apostle_n of_o the_o gentile_n and_o peter_n of_o the_o jew_n for_o say_v paul_n 2.7_o paul_n gal._n 2.7_o the_o gospel_n of_o the_o uncircumcision_n be_v commit_v unto_o i_o as_o the_o gospel_n of_o the_o circumcision_n be_v unto_o peter_n and_o in_o his_o epistle_n he_o call_v the_o roman_n gentile_n i_o speak_v to_o you_o gentile_n inasmuch_o as_o i_o be_o the_o apostle_n of_o the_o gentile_n rom._n 11.13_o that_o be_v he_o be_v chief_o and_o special_o send_v to_o

he_o be_v not_o to_o go_v abroad_o to_o the_o gentile_n but_o to_o converse_v with_o and_o continue_v among_o the_o jew_n as_o we_o see_v his_o epistle_n be_v write_v to_o they_o paul_n on_o the_o contrary_a have_v upon_o occasion_n say_v to_o the_o jew_n 13.46_o jew_n act_n 13.46_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n shall_v first_o have_v be_v speak_v unto_o you_o but_o see_v you_o put_v it_o from_o you_o and_o judge_v yourselves_o unworthy_a of_o everlasting_a life_n lo_o we_o turn_v to_o the_o gentile_n and_o in_o another_o place_n 18.6_o place_n chap._n 18.6_o he_o shake_v his_o raiment_n and_o say_v unto_o they_o your_o blood_n be_v upon_o your_o own_o head_n i_o be_o clean_a from_o henceforth_o i_o will_v go_v unto_o the_o gentile_n and_o so_o he_o do_v go_v from_o town_n to_o town_n to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n and_o so_o we_o see_v his_o epistle_n general_o write_v to_o the_o gentile_n among_o other_o that_o to_o the_o roman_n whereby_o we_o see_v how_o that_o church_n be_v within_o his_o province_n not_o of_o peter_n but_o let_v we_o come_v to_o particular_n on_o this_o account_n there_o may_v be_v a_o twofold_a succession_n the_o first_o of_o
