upon_o he_o we_o answer_v that_o neither_o do_v that_o text_n give_v peter_n any_o high_a pre-eminence_n for_o that_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v style_v by_o high_a term_n than_o so_o even_o no_o less_o than_o absolute_a and_o several_a foundation_n of_o the_o church_n the_o wall_n of_o new_a jerusalem_n be_v say_v revel_v 21.14_o to_o have_v twelve_o foundation_n and_o in_o they_o the_o name_n of_o the_o twelve_o apostle_n another_o text_n also_o ephes_n 2.20_o make_v not_o only_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n but_o also_o the_o prophet_n as_o deep_a in_o the_o foundation_n

also_o our_o saviour_n himself_o 8._o nor_o again_o do_v our_o saviour_n give_v peter_n the_o key_n of_o heaven_n any_o whit_n advance_v peter_n above_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n unto_o who_o these_o heavenly_a key_n whether_o the_o key_n of_o knowledge_n the_o key_n of_o bind_v and_o lose_v the_o key_n of_o remit_v and_o retain_v or_o the_o key_n of_o david_n if_o there_o be_v any_o

you_o remit_v 20.23_o they_o be_v remit_v etc._n etc._n though_o to_o speak_v true_o and_o proper_o neither_o peter_n nor_o any_o mortal_a man_n ever_o have_v power_n to_o remit_v sin_n but_o only_o as_o the_o priest_n in_o the_o old_a law_n have_v power_n to_o cleanse_v leprosy_n which_o be_v only_o by_o pronounce_v according_a unto_o the_o leviticall_a rule_n 13._o who_o be_v clean_o and_o

but_o only_a who_o they_o so_o pronounce_v three_o the_o key_n of_o bind_v and_o lose_v if_o they_o must_v differ_v from_o the_o former_a be_v likewise_o find_v give_v to_o the_o rest_n when_o our_o

not_o only_o to_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n but_o also_o in_o case_n there_o speak_v of_o to_o every_o member_n of_o christ_n final_o concern_v the_o key_n of_o david_n which_o our_o saviour_n in_o his_o glory_n profess_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o keeper_n of_o may_v seem_v to_o have_v the_o pre-eminence_n 3.7_o we_o find_v long_o before_o peter_n time_n to_o have_v be_v commit_v unto_o the_o prophet_n jeremie_n under_o the_o name_n of_o eliachim_n in_o these_o word_n 22.22_o i_o will_v lay_v the_o key_n of_o david_n upon_o his_o shoulder_n he_o shall_v shut_v and_o none_o shall_v open_v he_o shall_v open_v and_o none_o shall_v shut_v wherein_o then_o consist_v the_o peculiaritie_n of_o peter_n key_n for_o though_o when_o our_o saviour_n promise_v he_o they_o he_o term_v they_o the_o key_n of_o heaven_n yet_o for_o as_o much_o as_o the_o key_n of_o bind_v lose_v open_v shut_v remit_v etc._n etc._n do_v concern_v no_o other_o gate_n than_o the_o gate_n of_o heaven_n such_o

as_o well_o as_o peter_n be_v also_o the_o key_n of_o heaven_n yea_o and_o such_o a_o key_n as_o without_o it_o none_o of_o the_o other_o key_n can_v and_o yet_o it_o without_o all_o the_o rest_n be_v

his_o precious_a blood_n be_v the_o only_a true_a key_n indeed_o and_o his_o word_n reveal_v so_o much_o be_v the_o handle_n of_o that_o key_n and_o the_o faith_n of_o man_n be_v the_o hand_n which_o

9_o final_o concern_v peter_n agencye_n and_o employment_n in_o the_o church_n affair_n more_o than_o other_o we_o answer_v that_o the_o principal_a agent_n and_o speaker_n be_v not_o always_o of_o necessity_n the_o principal_a person_n advocate_n and_o pleader_n exceed_v judge_n and_o precedent_n in_o such_o office_n 14._o the_o high_a priest_n aaron_n be_v as_o a_o mouth_n unto_o moses_n though_o moses_n be_v as_o god_n unto_o he_o and_o the_o man_n of_o lystra_n esteem_v paul_n to_o be_v therefore_o inferior_a unto_o barnabas_n as_o much_o as_o mercury_n be_v unto_o jupiter_n because_o paul_n be_v the_o chief_a speaker_n second_o though_o we_o find_v peter_n in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n to_o take_v up_o the_o occasion_n of_o speech_n very_o often_o and_o abundant_o yet_o may_v we_o observe_v diverse_a token_n of_o more_o eminency_n in_o other_o especial_o in_o paul_n john_n and_o both_o the_o jame_n the_o one_o of_o these_o be_v grace_v with_o no_o

jewish_a rite_n and_o as_o concern_v john_n we_o find_v first_o that_o he_o be_v usual_o call_v the_o disciple_n who_o jesus_n love_v that_o our_o saviour_n permit_v he_o to_o lean_v on_o his_o breast_n at_o his_o last_o supper_n 19.26_o make_v he_o the_o son_n of_o his_o own_o mother_n &_o as_o a_o guardian_n unto_o she_o give_v he_o the_o grace_n to_o write_v his_o gospel_n in_o the_o divine_a manner_n with_o answerable_a canonical_a epistle_n as_o also_o make_v he_o the_o immediate_a penman_n of_o his_o special_a epistle_n to_o the_o seven_o church_n 2._o &_o final_o reveal_v unto_o he_o the_o future_a estate_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n and_o as_o touch_v paul_n these_o peculiar_a excellency_n we_o find_v concern_v he_o first_o 13.2_o that_o his_o call_n be_v by_o the_o lord_n immediate_a voice_n from_o heaven_n be_v separate_v by_o the_o appointment_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v reckon_v among_o the_o prophet_n of_o his_o time_n abound_v in_o unwritten_a revelation_n as_o john_n do_v in_o the_o write_v foretell_v the_o immediate_a blindness_n of_o elimas_n which_o be_v answerable_a unto_o peter_n like_a prediction_n of_o the_o death_n of_o ananias_n take_v the_o care_n of_o all_o the_o church_n 15._o labour_v more_o they_o they_o all_o will_v not_o build_v on_o another_o foundation_n have_v the_o large_a province_n nam_o over_o all_o the_o gentile_n write_v most_o canonical_a epistle_n most_o magnify_v his_o office_n stand_v most_o upon_o his_o authority_n affirm_v that_o who_o so_o despise_v his_o doctrine_n despise_v god_n commend_v his_o own_o example_n ●_o and_o cite_v his_o own_o authority_n behold_v i_o paul_n i_o say_v unto_o you_o etc._n etc._n and_o final_o rebuke_v peter_n to_o the_o face_n whereas_o concern_v peter_n as_o he_o be_v

shall_v seem_v to_o take_v upon_o he_o the_o office_n of_o a_o judge_n and_o so_o leave_v a_o conceit_n in_o his_o follower_n that_o some_o degree_n of_o authority_n may_v be_v derive_v from_o he_o every_o where_o final_o prescribe_v such_o course_n and_o advise_v all_o that_o desire_v to_o grow_v great_a in_o he_o to_o exceed_v only_o in_o humility_n prefer_v therefore_o a_o child_n before_o they_o all_o when_o they_o strive_v who_o shall_v be_v the_o great_a 20.25_o and_o tell_v they_o in_o effect_n that_o authority_n and_o greatness_n be_v to_o be_v derive_v only_o from_o the_o king_n of_o the_o nation_n 28.18_o for_o whereas_o after_o his_o ascension_n he_o tell_v we_o that_o all_o power_n be_v give_v he_o both_o in_o heaven_n and_o in_o earth_n his_o meaning_n therein_o be_v only_o this_o that_o now_o all_o power_n both_o in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v be_v under_o his_o humanity_n as_o before_o it_o be_v under_o his_o deity_n and_o that_o as_o all_o man_n even_o adam_n himself_o and_o all_o his_o race_n be_v former_o under_o he_o as_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n so_o now_o they_o shall_v likewise_o be_v under_o he_o as_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o man_n for_o the_o effect_n thereof_o there_o need_v no_o alteration_n of_o state_n or_o new_a conveyance_n for_o that_o as_o all_o other_o creature_n both_o in_o heaven_n and_o in_o earth_n whether_o angel_n beast_n worm_n plant_n stone_n or_o whatsoever_o be_v likewise_o become_v subject_n unto_o this_o manhood_n and_o yet_o still_o retain_v their_o order_n nature_n and_o property_n as_o before_o angel_n remain_v angel_n beast_n remain_v beast_n lion_n lion_n stones_n stone_n etc._n etc._n so_o do_v it_o no_o otherwise_o follow_v but_o that_o mankind_n may_v likewise_o become_v subject_a unto_o the_o manhood_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o all_o man_n still_o to_o continue_v in_o their_o former_a property_n king_n remain_v king_n prince_n prince_n father_n master_n husband_n wife_n subject_n son_n servant_n in_o their_o former_a condition_n and_o as_o the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o every_o man_n in_o the_o same_o call_n wherein_o he_o be_v call_v 7.24_o as_o well_o after_o his_o birth_n in_o the_o second_o adam_n as_o in_o the_o first_o for_o as_o the_o second_o adam_n do_v not_o think_v good_a to_o be_v the_o father_n of_o a_o new_a generation_n by_o the_o course_n of_o nature_n wherewith_o to_o propagate_v his_o church_n but_o make_v choice_n of_o the_o old_a adam_n issue_n to_o new_a graft_n upon_o so_o may_v we_o conceive_v it_o to_o be_v a_o course_n most_o answerable_a thereunto_o that_o when_o he_o mean_v to_o adorn_v and_o bespangle_v his_o church_n with_o sceptre_n crown_n and_o authority_n he_o will_v not_o make_v new_a crown_n or_o new_a sceptre_n or_o take_v away_o crown_n and_o sceptre_n from_o the_o old_a possessor_n to_o adorn_v his_o follower_n withal_o but_o only_o new_a graft_n upon_o those_o old_a crown_n and_o potentate_n and_o so_o most_o sweet_o bring_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o though_o he_o do_v not_o make_v his_o follower_n king_n yet_o do_v he_o make_v king_n his_o follower_n which_o as_o it_o be_v all_o one_o for_o the_o outward_a glory_n and_o countenance_n of_o the_o gospel_n so_o it_o be_v far_o more_o agree_v with_o the_o property_n and_o profession_n of_o the_o gospel_n namely_o in_o win_a king_n unto_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n by_o gentle_a easy_a weak_a and_o peaceable_a mean_n make_v choice_n of_o sheep_n and_o not_o wolf_n or_o lion_n for_o his_o ambassador_n and_o that_o when_o he_o send_v to_o wolf_n and_o lion_n and_o worse_a than_o tiger_n that_o so_o those_o rebel_n in_o the_o day_n of_o visitation_n when_o they_o see_v how_o the_o lord_n have_v deal_v with_o they_o and_o how_o in_o stead_n of_o sheep_n he_o can_v have_v send_v wolf_n and_o lion_n in_o their_o own_o kind_n to_o have_v worry_v and_o destroy_v they_o then_o as_o overcome_v with_o the_o coal_n of_o fire_n which_o his_o long_a suffering_n have_v cast_v upon_o they_o they_o with_o all_o their_o heart_n and_o soul_n present_v he_o and_o his_o gospel_n with_o their_o sceptre_n crown_n dignity_n and_o possession_n yea_o they_o thus_o break_v forth_o into_o most_o vehement_a and_o sincere_a protestation_n as_o our_o so_o christian_a sovereign_a have_v teach_v they_o unto_o his_o majesty_n alone_o i_o have_v devote_a my_o sceptre_n 249._o my_o sword_n my_o pen_n my_o whole_a industry_n my_o whole_a self_n with_o all_o that_o be_v i_o in_o whole_a and_o in_o part_n i_o do_v it_o i_o do_v it_o in_o all_o humble_a acknowledgement_n

of_o my_o earthly_a kingdom_n we_o conclude_v then_o that_o neither_o divine_a ordinance_n nor_o church_n benefit_n do_v enforce_v or_o persuade_v this_o ground_n without_o which_o saint_n peter_n can_v be_v entitle_v unto_o sovereignty_n that_o the_o more_o spiritual_a man_n be_v the_o more_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v possessor_n of_o authority_n which_o conclusion_n also_o be_v it_o grant_v yet_o will_v not_o peter_n supremacy_n thereupon_o ensue_v unless_o it_o be_v also_o prove_v that_o in_o spiritual_a gift_n and_o grace_n peter_n must_v of_o necessity_n be_v acknowledge_v to_o

especial_o by_o he_o in_o the_o primitive_a church_n affair_n we_o thus_o short_o answer_v they_o in_o order_n and_o first_o concern_v his_o nominal_a priority_n we_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v not_o of_o force_n to_o entitle_v he_o unto_o any_o principality_n it_o be_v not_o avoidable_a among_o the_o most_o equal_v but_o that_o there_o must_v be_v such_o kind_n of_o precedency_n as_o for_o example_n in_o the_o trinity_n though_o neither_o be_v peter_n every_o where_o first_o name_v both_o 2._o james_n and_o 1.40_o andrew_n be_v sometime_o name_v before_o he_o 2._o and_o as_o for_o our_o saviour_n triple_a charge_v he_o to_o feed_v his_o sheep_n we_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v rather_o a_o check_n then_o a_o grace_n to_o be_v often_o call_v upon_o to_o do_v a_o duty_n and_o in_o that_o it_o be_v say_v that_o peter_n be_v sorry_a when_o it_o be_v say_v unto_o he_o the_o three_o time_n etc._n etc._n it_o may_v seem_v that_o peter_n take_v it_o no_o otherwise_o as_o perhaps_o conceit_v such_o tripling_n of_o his_o charge_n to_o be_v in_o the_o way_n of_o a_o glance_n at_o his_o triple_a denial_n 3._o fron_n the_o like_a consideration_n of_o peter_n weakness_n we_o answer_v to_o the_o three_o may_v proceed_v our_o saviour_n tell_v he_o that_o he_o have_v pray_v for_o he_o for_o no_o doubt_n our_o saviour_n prayer_n be_v as_o frequent_v &_o effectual_a for_o the_o rest_n though_o he_o see_v not_o the_o like_a cause_n to_o tell_v they_o so_o much_o 4._o and_o as_o for_o our_o saviour_n pay_v the_o tribute_n for_o he_o we_o answer_v that_o it_o may_v rather_o argue_v peter_n poverty_n and_o subjection_n than_o any_o kind_n of_o excellency_n and_o dominion_n the_o rest_n also_o perhaps_o not_o be_v liable_a to_o the_o tribute_n which_o be_v then_o demand_v either_o because_o they_o be_v no_o dweller_n at_o capernaum_n as_o peter_n be_v and_o so_o it_o may_v be_v if_o it_o be_v the_o emperor_n tribute_n or_o for_o that_o they_o be_v not_o the_o first_o bear_v in_o their_o family_n of_o who_o only_o the_o other_o tribute_n towards_o the_o temple_n be_v demand_v 5._o and_o as_o for_o our_o saviour_n so_o ordinary_a discourse_v with_o peter_n we_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v ordinary_a with_o natural_a father_n to_o make_v choice_n rather_o of_o their_o little_a one_o to_o oppose_v and_o discourse_v withal_o than_o their_o man_n grow_v son_n especial_o when_o their_o intent_n therein_o be_v to_o teach_v stander_n by_o the_o most_o ready_a answerer_n rather_o than_o the_o more_o wary_a being_n fit_a for_o such_o purpose_n 6._o and_o as_o for_o the_o new_a name_n of_o peter_n we_o answer_v that_o
