A91309	Truth triumphing over falshood, antiquity over novelty. Or, The first part of a just and seasonable vindication of the undoubted ecclesiasticall iurisdiction, right, legislative, coercive power of Christian emperors, kings, magistrates, parliaments, in all matters of religion, church-government, discipline, ceremonies, manners: summoning of, presiding, moderating in councells, synods; and ratifying their canons, determinations, decrees: as likewise of lay-mens right both to sit and vote in councells; ... In refutation of Mr. Iohn Goodwins Innocencies Triumph: my deare brother Burtons Vindication of churches, commonly called Independent: and of all anti-monarchicall, anti-Parliamentall, anti-synodicall, and anarchicall paradoxes of papists, prelates, Anabaptists, Arminians, Socinians, Brownists, or Independents: whose old and new objections to the contrary, are here fully answered. / By William Prynne, of Lincolnes Inne, Esquire.	Prynne, William, 1600-1669.	1645 (1645)	Wing P4115; Thomason E259_1; ESTC R212479	202,789	171

eclesiasticall_a over_o we_o or_o pass_v any_o censure_n upon_o we_o but_o only_o christ_n himself_o brother_n if_o such_o antimonarchicall_a antiparliamentall_a and_o anarchicall_a logic_n and_o

which_o be_v all_o i_o contend_v for_o therefore_o christ_n be_v the_o only_a king_n head_z ruler_n and_o lawgiver_n of_o his_o church_n be_v no_o impediment_n to_o king_n parliament_n by_o advice_n of_o synod_n to_o enact_v such_o law_n as_o these_o and_o so_o the_o argument_n a_o mere_a independent_a nonsequitur_fw-la three_o christ_n be_v the_o 3._o king_n lord_n head_z and_o lawgiver_n of_o every_o private_a christian_a or_o member_n of_o a_o congregation_n as_o well_o as_o of_o every_o particular_a or_o of_o the_o whole_a catholic_a church_n and_o so_o 18._o by_o your_o determination_n he_o be_v subject_a to_o no_o other_o jurisdiction_n then_o that_o of_o christ_n his_o spirit_n and_o word_n yet_o i_o hope_v elsewhere_o you_o will_v grant_v that_o every_o independent_a congregation_n have_v a_o true_a jurisdiction_n and_o power_n over_o every_o particular_a member_n of_o it_o yea_o a_o legislative_a power_n to_o prescribe_v a_o special_a covenant_n and_o such_o ecclesiastical_a rule_n order_n as_o the_o whole_a congregation_n shall_v think_v meet_a to_o which_o they_o must_v submit_v under_o pain_n of_o excommunication_n suspension_n non-communion_n and_o deny_v baptism_n to_o their_o infant_n as_o you_o plain_o intimate_v pag._n 44._o 45_o 46_o 62_o 63._o therefore_o these_o title_n and_o prerogative_n of_o christ_n do_v not_o deprive_v particular_a church_n of_o the_o power_n of_o prescribe_v covenant_n order_n rule_n and_o canon_n to_o their_o member_n much_o less_o than_o whole_a synod_n counsel_n parliament_n of_o far_o great_a wisdom_n

within_o their_o jurisdiction_n and_o so_o much_o in_o answer_n of_o this_o grand_a argument_n the_o second_o be_v this_o 51._o christ_n be_v the_o full_a and_o sole_a king_n reign_v in_o the_o

shall_v be_v lord_n over_o the_o conscience_n which_o be_v the_o high_a presumption_n against_o the_o most_o high_a i_o answer_v 1._o that_o this_o argument_n be_v ground_v upon_o a_o very_a sandy_a
