distinction_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n respect_v the_o whole_a church_n rather_o than_o any_o particular_a church_n 2._o and_o this_o your_o second_o answer_n imply_v you_o do_v not_o mean_v it_o in_o any_o one_o single_a congregation_n on_o earth_n but_o general_o and_o indefinite_o in_o every_o particular_a church_n on_o earth_n for_o every_o apostle_n have_v transcendent_a power_n in_o every_o particular_a church_n on_o earth_n but_o 1._o why_o may_v you_o not_o say_v as_o well_o general_o in_o the_o whole_a catholic_a church_n on_o earth_n see_v peter_n receive_v power_n to_o bind_v and_o loose_v in_o the_o whole_a church_n primary_o be_v a_o apostle_n and_o secondary_o in_o particular_a congregation_n 2._o if_o peter_n as_o a_o apostle_n receive_v such_o power_n in_o the_o whole_a church_n what_o be_v that_o to_o elder_n and_o believer_n to_o challenge_v power_n of_o the_o key_n from_o this_o text_n in_o all_o particular_a congregation_n sure_o they_o have_v not_o

indefinite_o as_o a_o apostle_n or_o as_o a_o elder_a or_o as_o a_o believer_n not_o as_o a_o apostle_n or_o elder_n that_o you_o deny_v in_o the_o way_n not_o as_o a_o believer_n for_o if_o they_o have_v any_o power_n in_o the_o key_n it_o be_v in_o the_o particular_a congregation_n whence_o i_o conclude_v by_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n there_o be_v not_o mean_v a_o particular_a but_o the_o catholic_a visible_a church_n as_o vvn_n to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o glory_n obj._n 3_o that_o church_n be_v mean_v say_v i_o whereof_o peter_n be_v one_o but_o peter_n be_v not_o a_o member_n of_o a_o

you_o say_v the_o proposition_n be_v true_a because_o the_o subject_n and_o predicate_v have_v true_a connexion_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n though_o not_o in_o the_o present_a order_n of_o time_n but_o so_o it_o be_v not_o in_o my_o argue_v for_o peter_n be_v not_o at_o any_o time_n a_o member_n of_o a_o particular_a congregation_n neither_o then_o nor_o afterward_o there_o be_v then_o no_o fallacy_n or_o sophism_n in_o my_o argue_v the_o weakness_n be_v in_o the_o proof_n for_o whereas_o i_o say_v peter_n be_v not_o a_o member_n of_o a_o particular_a congregation_n because_o there_o be_v none_o extant_a at_o that_o time_n i_o shall_v have_v say_v peter_n be_v a_o apostle_n be_v never_o a_o member_n of_o a_o particular_a congregation_n therefore_o the_o church_n there_o mean_a can_v not_o be_v a_o particular_a congregation_n obj._n 4_o i_o say_v four_o that_o church_n whereof_o peter_n receive_v the_o key_n be_v such_o whereto_o a_o offend_a brother_n may_v tell_v

have_v it_o censure_v and_o this_o you_o deny_v but_o i_o shall_v prove_v it_o thus_o 1._o from_o the_o judgement_n of_o your_o brethren_n here_o who_o say_v the_o brethren_n can_v proceed_v to_o

you_o flat_o contradict_v yourself_o in_o the_o way_n pag._n 101._o and_o now_o my_o syllogism_n may_v easy_o be_v defend_v and_o clear_v from_o a_o sophism_n by_o add_v the_o minor_a more_o explicit_o thus_o but_o a_o church_n of_o saint_n without_o officer_n be_v not_o such_o a_o church_n this_o be_v prove_v by_o what_o i_o say_v that_o be_v never_o do_v in_o a_o church_n of_o saint_n without_o officer_n that_o be_v no_o example_n can_v be_v bring_v from_o scripture_n or_o history_n of_o such_o a_o practice_n where_o a_o church_n of_o saint_n without_o officer_n do_v censure_v a_o

you_o know_v we_o deny_v that_o a_o church_n of_o saint_n without_o officer_n have_v power_n to_o elect_v that_o be_v ordain_v and_o make_v officer_n and_o you_o ought_v not_o to_o beg_v it_o and_o

or_o shut_v out_o therefore_o nor_o can_v they_o admit_v or_o open_v the_o minor_a be_v your_o own_o a_o little_a above_o and_o your_o brethren_n also_o excommunication_n be_v a_o act_n of_o rule_n

attribution_n of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o key_n to_o the_o brethren_n to_o elect_v that_o be_v to_o make_v and_o ordain_v their_o own_o officer_n make_v election_n the_o principal_a and_o

that_o may_v ordain_v their_o own_o officer_n may_v de-ordain_a they_o or_o cast_v they_o out_o for_o it_o be_v the_o same_o power_n instituere_fw-la &_o destituere_fw-la as_o you_o say_v and_o then_o if_o the_o brethren_n may_v ordain_v and_o de-ordain_a their_o officer_n much_o more_o may_v they_o admit_v or_o exclude_v member_n but_o i_o think_v the_o antecedent_n be_v to_o be_v deny_v and_o

as_o i_o say_v not_o exclude_v the_o invisible_a church_n and_o herein_o yourself_o seem_v to_o agree_v with_o i_o when_o you_o say_v indeed_o true_a it_o be_v that_o peter_n and_o other_o preacher_n

in_o that_o text_n for_o the_o reason_n which_o you_o give_v also_o because_o there_o be_v a_o power_n of_o the_o key_n to_o open_v a_o door_n to_o profess_a believer_n into_o the_o catholic_a
