be_v that_o christ_n our_o lord_n will_v have_v the_o whole_a company_n of_o christian_n upon_o earth_n ever_o to_o be_v and_o remain_v one_o flock_n this_o i_o conceiv_o can_v never_o be_v except_o they_o be_v all_o under_o one_o visible_a pastor_n nor_o can_v it_o suffice_v to_o say_v here_o that_o they_o be_v all_o under_o one_o christ_n and_o one_o god_n for_o this_o can_v never_o make_v they_o all_o either_o real_o to_o be_v or_o true_o to_o be_v call_v one_o flock_n on_o earth_n all_o the_o kingdom_n and_o people_n in_o the_o world_n however_o they_o be_v govern_v be_v under_o one_o god_n the_o supreme_a king_n as_o the_o whole_a church_n be_v say_v to_o be_v under_o one_o christ_n but_o this_o make_v they_o not_o to_o be_v one_o kingdom_n nay_o those_o that_o have_v not_o a_o visible_a king_n be_v not_o any_o kingdom_n at_o all_o but_o a_o aristocracy_n only_o or_o commonwealth_n or_o wild_a straggler_n but_o if_o you_o will_v have_v no_o visible_a flock_n of_o christian_n upon_o earth_n you_o teach_v the_o quaker_n doctrine_n and_o abolish_v all_o government_n it_o be_v certain_a then_o that_o if_o the_o ecclesiastical_a government_n of_o each_o place_n do_v end_n in_o the_o bishop_n of_o that_o respective_a diocese_n as_o the_o dissuader_n talk_v that_o there_o must_v be_v then_o as_o many_o flock_n of_o christian_n as_o there_o be_v bishop_n upon_o earth_n which_o be_v not_o subordinate_a all_o of_o they_o to_o one_o general_a pastor_n can_v never_o bring_v their_o flock_n into_o one_o second_o be_v that_o such_o a_o polity_n and_o government_n must_v ever_o be_v preserve_v in_o christ_n church_n which_o himself_o set_v up_o and_o practise_v this_o be_v most_o certain_a for_o if_o that_o polity_n or_o body_n be_v change_v it_o be_v no_o more_o christ_n

of_o those_o who_o first_o reject_v the_o government_n and_o of_o their_o follower_n afterward_o unto_o infinite_a and_o endless_a misery_n and_o that_o this_o polity_n or_o government_n be_v ever_o to_o remain_v in_o christ_n church_n on_o earth_n may_v be_v gather_v first_o by_o this_o that_o every_o wise_a legislatour_n know_v well_o enough_o that_o all_o his_o people_n under_o he_o look_v
