A96941 A modell of the government of the church under the gospel, by presbyters, proved out of the holy scriptures, to be that one, onely uniform government of the universall visible church, and of all nationall, provinciall, classicall and congregationall churches: which is according to the will and appointment of Jesus Christ. Which may serve to stay such as are doubting, with hope of full satisfaction, and clear demonstration of this truth, shortly to be made by the reverend Assembly of Divines. / Composed by a Presbyterian minister of the city of London, and approved by divers of his learned brethren, and at their request published.

in_o they_o which_o rule_v in_o the_o prelate_n and_o in_o popish_a bishop_n former_o to_o these_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o if_o we_o search_v all_o history_n of_o the_o church_n in_o all_o age_n we_o shall_v never_o find_v in_o any_o church_n or_o kingdom_n so_o many_o godly_a learned_a faithful_a and_o sincere_a minister_n hold_v so_o fast_o their_o integrity_n of_o life_n and_o purity_n

and_o have_v at_o this_o day_n who_o neither_o persecution_n loss_n of_o good_n and_o estate_n nor_o bond_n nor_o imprisonment_n no_o nor_o hope_n and_o offer_v of_o preferment_n honour_n or_o riches_n can_v move_v from_o their_o steadfastness_n and_o yet_o all_o this_o can_v stop_v the_o mouth_n of_o the_o son_n of_o belial_n who_o heart_n be_v harden_v and_o their_o tongue_n set_v on_o

all_o equal_a and_o judicious_a man_n that_o the_o supreme_a magistracy_n have_v be_v the_o chief_n cause_n of_o such_o a_o ungodly_a and_o scandalous_a ministry_n pester_v this_o kingdom_n of_o

and_o either_o careless_o or_o corrupt_o and_o of_o purpose_n admit_v vile_a unworthy_a person_n into_o the_o holy_a call_n of_o the_o ministry_n who_o be_v either_o unlearned_a and_o not_o gift_v
