magistrate_n have_v neither_o the_o skill_n nor_o the_o commission_n to_o make_v the_o member_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n because_o he_o can_v tell_v to_o what_o use_n the_o member_n of_o his_o make_n may_v serve_v in_o the_o church_n do_v you_o think_v t.c._n that_o the_o maiestrat_n may_v make_v a_o eye_n for_o the_o visible_a body_n of_o the_o church_n for_o you_o must_v understand_v that_o we_o all_o this_o while_o speak_v of_o the_o visible_a body_n can_v he_o make_v a_o foot_n or_o a_o hand_n for_o that_o body_n i_o pray_v you_o in_o what_o place_n of_o the_o body_n will_v you_o have_v they_o place_v if_o our_o saviour_n christ_n have_v leave_v behind_o he_o a_o perfect_a body_n sure_o he_o have_v leave_v therein_o no_o place_n or_o no_o use_v for_o member_n of_o the_o

and_o maim_a body_n if_o not_o then_z where_o shall_v these_o office_n namely_o these_o member_n invent_v by_o the_o magistrate_n be_v place_v therein_o will_v you_o have_v the_o natural_a eye_n put_v

canterbury_n office_n out_o of_o our_o church_n if_o she_o may_v not_o displace_v his_o office_n then_o either_o he_o by_o virtue_n of_o his_o office_n be_v a_o lawful_a pope_n above_o all_o civil_a magistrate_n or_o else_o the_o church_n government_n be_v so_o prescribe_v in_o the_o word_n as_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o the_o magestrate_n to_o alter_v the_o same_o but_o john_n of_o

the_o church_n government_n be_v so_o prescribe_v in_o the_o word_n as_o it_o can_v be_v alter_v then_o either_o our_o government_n be_v the_o same_o which_o be_v therein_o prescribe_v or_o our_o church_n government_n be_v a_o false_a churchgoverment_n if_o we_o be_v the_o same_o which_o be_v mention_v in_o the_o word_n then_o paul_n and_o peter_n be_v either_o no_o true_a church_n governor_n
