Institution for holy Worship especially in Church-assemblies CHAP. II. Prop. I. That Christ Commissioned his Apostles or his principal Church-Ministers to teach the Churches all his Doctrine and deliver them all his Commands and Orders and so to settle and guide the first Churches This I prove 1. By their Commission it self 2. By their performance with its proper seal 3. By the Consent of all the Christian world 1. Luke 6. 13. He called to him his Disciples and of them he chose twelve whom also he named Apostles Their first Commission is recited Matth. 10. at large Matth. 28. 18 19 20. All Authority is given me in Heaven and in Earth Go ye therefore and disciple all Nations baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you And loe I am with you alway even unto the end of the world Amen John 20. 21. Then said Jesus to them again Peace be unto you As the Father hath sent me even so send I you And when he had said this he breathed on them and said Receive ye the Holy Ghost Whosesoever sins ye remit they are remitted unto them and whosesoever sins ye retain they are retained Luke 10. 16. Even of the seventy it is said He that heareth you heareth me and he that despiseth you despiseth me and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me And to the twelve Matth. 10. 40. He that receiveth you receiveth me c. Acts 26. 17. Delivering thee from the people and from the Gentiles to whom now I send thee to open their eyes 1 Cor. 15. 3. For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received c. 1 Cor. 11. 23. For I received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you 1 Cor. 4. 1 2. Let a man so account of us as of the Ministers of Christ and Stewards of the mysteries of God Gal. 1. 11 12. But I certifie you brethren that the Gospel which was preached of me is not after man For I neither received it of man neither was I taught it but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. John 21. 15 16 17. Simon Son of Jonas lovest thou me Feed my Lambs Matth. 16. 19. I will give unto thee the Keyes of the Kingdom of Heaven and whatsoever thou shalt bind on Earth shall be bound in Heaven and whatsoever thou shalt loose on Earth shall be loosed in Heaven John 17. 18. As thou hast sent me into the world so have I also sent them into the world See John 13. 16 20. Acts 1. 24 25. Shew whether of these two thou hast chosen that he may take part of this Ministry and Apostleship from which Judas by transgression fell Gal. 1. 1. Paul an Apostle not of men neither by man but by Jesus Christ and God the Father Acts 1. 2. After that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandment to the Apostles whom he had chosen to whom also he presented himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs being seen of them forty dayes and speaking of the things pertaining to the Kingdom of God Acts 2. 42. They continued stedfast in the Apostles doctrine and fellowship c. Eph. 4. 11 12 13 14 15 16. He gave some Apostles some Prophets c. 1 Cor. 12. 28 29. First Apostles secondarily Prophets c. Are all Apostles c. Eph. 2. 20. Being built on the foundation of the Apostles c. 2. Pet. 3. 2. That ye may be mindfull of the words which were spoken before by the holy Prophets and of the Commandments of us the Apostles of the Lord and Saviour Acts 10. 5. Send men to Joppa and call for Simon c. and be shall tell thee c. They that will not take all this plain evidence of Scripture for a proof of this first Proposition I suppose would not be ever the more moved by it if I should be so needlesly tedious as to stay to fetch Arguments from each Text. 2. The Apostles exercised such a power as the Proposition mentioneth and God s●t to it the seal of Miracles Therefore such a Power or Office was given them by Christ. The Consequence is undenyable The Antecedent of this Enthimeme is so plainly expressed in Scripture that I am loth to take up much of my own or the Readers time in proving so known a thing They founded the Churches they delivered them the Doctrine and Commands of Christ they setled the Churches as to Officers Orders and Discipline according to Christs Commands and the Spirits determinations Thus they ordained the new Office of Deacons and Deaconeffes or Widows and they ordained them Elders in every Church or City and they determined of Church Controversies and gave the Church Decrees and delivered the Will of Christ about the Sacrament Church-Assemblies Prophecyings c. Acts 2. 14. 23. Acts 6. 3 4 c. 1 Tim. 3. Titus 1. Acts 15. 1 Cor. 11. 1 Cor. 14 c. 3. That all Christians save Hereticks did acknowledge their power and acquiesce in their Decrees and Conduct being a matter of fact needs no other proof than the common History of former Ages and practice of this Which are so well known that I will not injure the Reader by proving it CHAP. III. Prop. 2. Christ promised his Spirit to his Apostles to enable them to do what be had commissioned them to do by leading them into all truth and bringing his words and deeds to their remembrance and by guiding them as his Churches Guides In the Old Testament it is prophesied and promised Jer. 3. 15. And I will give you Pastors according to mine heart which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding See all the Texts that promise the pouring out of the Spirit Isa. 44. 3. Ezck. 36. 27. 37. 14. 39. 29. Joel 2. 28 29. Which were principally fulfilled on the Apostles Luke 24. 49. And behold I send the promise of my Father upon you But tarry ye in the City of Jerusalem untill ye be endued with power from on high John 15. 26 27. But when the Advocate is come whom I will send unto you from the Father he shall testifie of me and ye also shall bear witness because ye have been with me from the beginning John 16. 7 12 13 14 15. It is expedient for you that I go away for if I go not away the Advocate will not come unto you But if I depart I will send him unto you I have yet many things to say unto you but ye cannot bear them now Ho●beit when he the Spirit of truth is come he will guide you into all the truth For he shall not speak of himself but whatsoever he shall hear that shall he speak And he shall shew you things to come He shall glorifie me for he shall receive of mine and shew it unto you All things that the Father hath are mine Therefore said I
