is bound to offer for sinnes as wâ—ll for hys owne parte as for thâ— peoples And no man taketh honour vnto him selfe but he that is called of God as was Aaron Euen so like wise Christ glorified not him selfe to be made the hye priest but he that sayed vnto him thou arte my sonne this daye begat I the glorified him As he also in an other place speaketh Thou art a priest for euer after the order of Melchisedech Whereof we haue many thinges to say which are harde to bee vttered because ye are â—ull of hearinge This Melchisedech king of Salem which beinge priest of the most hye God met Abraham as he returned agayne frome the slaughter of the kinges and blessed him to whome also Abraham gaue tithes of al thinges firste is by interpretation kinge of righteousnes after that he is king of Salem that is to saye kinge of of peace withoute father withoute mother without kinne and hathe neither beginninge of his time neither yet ende of his life But is likened vnto the sonne of God and continueth a prieste for euer Consider what a manne this was vnto whom the Patriarke Abraham gaue tithes of the spoiles And verelye those children of Leuy whiche receaue the office of the priestes haue a commaundement to take according to the law tithes of the people that is to say of their brethreÌ„ ye though they sprong oute of the loynes of Abraham But he whose kinnered is not counted amonge them receaued tythes of Abraham and blessed him that had the promises And withoute all nay sayinge he whiche is lesse receaueth blessinge of him whiche is greater And here men that die receiue tithes but ther he receiueth tithes of whom it is witnessed that he liueth And to saye the truthe Leuy him selfe also whiche receaueth tithes paied tithes in Abraham For he was yet in the loynes of his father Abraham when Melchisedech met him Yf now therfore perfection came by the presthode of the leuytes for vnder that priesthode the people receaued the lawe What needed it furthermore that an other priest shoulde rise after the order of Melchisedech and not after the order of Aaron Nowe no doubte if the priesthode be translated then of necessitye must the lawe be translated also For he of whome these thinges are spoken pertaineth vnto an other tribe of whiche neuer man serued at the altare For it is euidente that our Lord spronge of the tribe of Iuda of whiche triâ—e spake Moses nothynge concernynge priesthode And it is yet a more â—uydent thynge if after the symilytuâ—e of Melchisedech there arise an other priest whiche is not made after the law of the carnall commaundementâ— but after the power of the endelesse lyfe for he testyâ—yethe Thou arte a prieste for â—â—er after the order of Melchisedech Those priestes were made without an othe but this priest with an oâ—hâ— by him that sayed vnto him The Lorde sware and wyll not repente Thoâ— arte a priest for euer after the order of Melchisedech And for that cause was Iesus a stablisher of a better Testameâ—te And among them many were made priestes because thei were not suffered to endure by reason of death But this man because he endureth euer hath an euerlastinge priesâ—hode Such an hye priest it became vs to haue whiche is holye harmelesse vndefyled separate frome synners and made hyar then heauen whiche nedeth not daily as yonder hie priest to offer vp sarciâ—ice firste for his owne synnes and then for the peoples sinnes For that did he at once for all when he offered vppe hym selfe For the lawe maketh men priestes which haue infirmity but the word of the othe that came sence the lawe maketh the son priest which is perfect for euermore Of the thinges whyche we haue spoken this is the pith that we haue such an hie priest that is sitten on the righte hande of the seate of maiestye in heauen and is a minister of holye things of the very tabernacle whichâ— God pyghte and not man For euerye hyghe prieste is ordayned to offer giftes and sacrifices Wherfore it is of necessitye that this man haue somewhat also to offer For he were not a priesâ—e if he were on the earthe where are pryestes that accordynge to the lawe offer gyftes whych priestes serue vnto the ensample and shadowe of heauenlye thinges euen as the aunswer of God was geuen vnto Moses when he was about to finishe the tabernacle Take hede saieth he that thou make all things accordinge to the patrone shewed to thee in thâ— mounte ¶ Wyth what vertuouse byshops priestes and deacons beinge wythin holye orders oughte to be adorned Capitu. 56. This is a true sayinge if a man couet the office of a byshoppe he desireth a good woorke Ye and a byshoppe muste be fauâ—elesse the husbande of one wyfe sober discrete honestlye apparelled harberous apte to teache not droncken no fightâ—r not geuen to filthy lucre but gentle abhorringe fighting abhorringe couetâ—ousnes and one that ruleth his owne house honestlye hauinge children vnder obedience with al honeâ—ty For if a man can not rule his owne â—ouse howe shall he care for the congregation of God He may not be a yong scoler least he swel and faule in to the iudgement of the â—uyl speaker He must also be well reporâ—ed of amonge them whiche are with outeâ— leaste hee fall in too rebuke and snare of the euyll speaker Lykewise must the deacons be honest not doble tonged not geuen vnto much drinkinge neither vnto filthy lucre but hauinge the mysterye of the faith in pure conscience And let them first be proued and theÌ„ let them minister if they be founde fâ—utelesse Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife and suche as rule their children wel and their own housholdes For they that minister well get them selues good degree and greate liberty in the faith which is in Christ Iesu. For this cause left I thee in Crete that thou shouldeste performe that which was lackinge and shouldest ordayne priestes and elders in euery citye as I appointed thee Yf anye manne be fautelesse the husbande of one wyfe hauinge faithfull children which are not slaundered of riot neither are disobediâ—nt For a bishoppe must be fautelesse as it becommeth the minister of God not proude not angrye no dronkarde no fighter not geuen to filthy lucre but harberus one that loueth goodnes sober minded righteous holy temperate and suche as cleaueth vnto the true worde of docrine that he maye be able to exhorte with wholesome learninge and to improue them that say againste it Against an elder or a priest receaue non occasion but vnder two or three witnesses ¶ Of the institution of the coÌ„munion and howe damnable a thinge it is to receaue it vnwoorthelye Capitu. 57.
