call_v do_v build_v upon_o their_o foundation_n and_o do_v first_o of_o all_o set_v forth_o the_o word_n of_o god_n in_o certain_a place_n whether_o the_o succession_n of_o person_n be_v perpetual_a or_o whether_o it_o decay_n or_o cease_v for_o a_o time_n whereas_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n they_o which_o either_o preach_v not_o the_o word_n of_o god_n at_o all_o or_o else_o preach_v their_o own_o doctrine_n in_o steed_n of_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n although_o they_o allege_v and_o bring_v in_o for_o themselves_o a_o thousand_o continual_a successor_n be_v not_o to_o be_v hear_v as_o pastor_n but_o to_o be_v shun_v as_o wolf_n according_a to_o the_o express_a commandment_n of_o christ_n jesus_n and_o of_o his_o apostle_n but_o some_o man_n will_v object_v and_o say_v be_v it_o lawful_a then_o for_o objection_n every_o man_n to_o preach_v the_o word_n and_o to_o minister_v the_o sacrament_n no_o true_o it_o ought_v not_o so_o to_o be_v for_o all_o thing_n must_v be_v do_v in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v 14._o in_o order_n who_o be_v then_o true_a pastor_n sure_o such_o as_o be_v lawful_o call_v it_o rest_v therefore_o now_o to_o consider_v what_o be_v lawful_a call_n extraordinary_a that_o this_o special_a matter_n also_o may_v be_v understand_v we_o say_v that_o there_o be_v one_o form_n and_o manner_n of_o ordinary_a call_n and_o another_o of_o extraordinary_a call_n that_o be_v ordinary_a call_n in_o the_o which_o the_o order_n appoint_v of_o god_o in_o the_o church_n be_v observe_v in_o this_o order_n the_o first_o thing_n be_v the_o examination_n 1_o of_o doctrine_n and_o manner_n the_o second_o lawful_a 2_o election_n and_o the_o last_o imposition_n of_o hand_n these_o three_o 3_o thing_n may_v be_v gather_v &_o approve_a by_o diverse_a testimony_n of_o scripture_n as_o by_o the_o election_n of_o mathias_n and_o of_o the_o seven_o 1._o deacon_n in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o also_o by_o those_o thing_n which_o paul_n write_v in_o his_o epistle_n to_o timothy_n &_o to_o t●…tus_n this_o be_v the_o description_n of_o ordinary_a call_n whereby_o it_o may_v be_v gather_v that_o the_o same_o be_v a_o extraordinary_a call_n in_o the_o which_o although_o it_o be_v lawful_a by_o god_n authority_n either_o one_o of_o these_o two_o thing_n or_o both_o or_o else_o all_o be_v want_v the_o which_o kind_n of_o calling_n god_n have_v oftentimes_o use_v as_o in_o the_o scripture_n appear_v for_o who_o lay_v hand_n 14._o on_o moses_n to_o dedicate_v aaron_n who_o anoint_v the_o prophet_n esayas_n daniel_n amos_n and_o many_o other_o therefore_o when_o they_o which_o have_v authority_n abuse_v the_o power_n of_o ordinary_a call_n than_o i_o say_v it_o be_v necessary_a that_o the_o lord_n shall_v use_v extraordinary_a mean_n not_o to_o bring_v in_o confusion_n but_o to_o reform_v those_o which_o have_v pervert_v and_o deprave_a all_o thing_n in_o the_o church_n under_o the_o colour_n and_o pretence_n of_o ordinary_a succession_n and_o that_o the_o matter_n stand_v thus_o the_o write_n of_o the_o prophet_n which_o special_o inveye_v against_o the_o priest_n do_v manifest_o declare_v if_o any_o man_n object_n and_o say_v that_o they_o have_v extraordinary_a 3._o testimony_n of_o their_o calling_n confirm_v with_o certain_a miracle_n we_o answer_v that_o this_o be_v so_o far_o true_a in_o some_o that_o in_o other_o some_o it_o be_v stark_o false_a except_o we_o shall_v speak_v of_o those_o thing_n of_o the_o which_o there_o be_v no_o testimony_n and_o true_o i_o can_v tell_v whether_o there_o be_v many_o prophet_n to_o be_v find_v of_o the_o progeny_n of_o aaron_n upon_o who_o hand_n be_v lay_v after_o a_o ordinary_a manner_n if_o in_o like_a manner_n it_o be_v allege_v that_o they_o content_v themselves_o with_o the_o office_n of_o reprehend_v and_o reprove_v and_o exercise_v not_o the_o office_n of_o sacrifice_v we_o answer_v first_o of_o all_o that_o this_o be_v not_o find_v every_o where_o to_o be_v true_a for_o samuel_n which_o be_v not_o of_o the_o family_n of_o aaron_n 18._o but_o of_o chore_n sacrifice_v in_o mispa_n and_o elias_n in_o carmel_n second_o we_o answer_v that_o it_o ought_v not_o to_o seem_v strange_a that_o the_o prophet_n at_o that_o time_n extend_v not_o that_o extraordinary_a office_n to_o the_o do_v and_o fulfil_n of_o ceremony_n see_v that_o the_o same_o office_n do_v appertain_v by_o inheritance_n to_o the_o kindred_n and_o stock_n of_o levi_n which_o at_o this_o day_n be_v out_o of_o use_n thus_o far_o therefore_o concern_v these_o special_a point_n what_o be_v the_o church_n what_o be_v the_o mark_n of_o the_o same_o what_o be_v the_o vocation_n of_o pastor_n we_o have_v speak_v our_o judgement_n the_o which_o thing_n if_o you_o mean_v to_o call_v in_o question_n &_o to_o seek_v and_o try_v whether_o they_o be_v in_o our_o church_n or_o in_o our_o person_n we_o trust_v by_o the_o help_n of_o god_n to_o bring_v such_o certain_a reason_n that_o no_o man_n can_v doubt_v that_o we_o have_v the_o true_a church_n and_o that_o our_o call_n be_v lawful_a now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o three_o principal_a point_n which_o concern_v 11._o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n it_o be_v manifest_a by_o those_o thing_n whereof_o we_o have_v speak_v already_o that_o we_o do_v derogate_v nor_o take_v away_o none_o of_o those_o precious_a &_o magnificent_a note_n with_o 14._o the_o which_o the_o church_n be_v beautify_v but_o we_o say_v that_o it_o be_v the_o body_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o as_z yet_o it_o be_v a_o pilgrim_n in_o this_o world_n look_v for_o the_o fullness_n of_o the_o head_n that_o be_v christ._n this_o be_v the_o house_n 4._o of_o the_o lord_n which_o be_v daily_o build_v &_o erect_v by_o little_a &_o little_a which_o be_v govern_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o as_o yet_o fight_v against_o the_o flesh_n it_o be_v purify_v but_o so_o that_o by_o little_a &_o little_o it_o 5._o may_v be_v bring_v to_o the_o perfection_n of_o that_o beauty_n &_o cleanness_n in_o the_o which_o there_o be_v neither_o spot_n nor_o wrinkle_n it_o know_v 13._o god_n but_o in_o part_n to_o be_v short_a we_o confess_v that_o out_o of_o the_o church_n there_o be_v no_o salvation_n sing_v there_o be_v life_n no_o where_o else_o than_o in_o christ_n jesus_n who_o exercise_v his_o quicken_a life_n in_o no_o other_o than_o in_o his_o member_n the_o vinion_n and_o coagmentation_n whereof_o be_v call_v the_o church_n but_o in_o this_o all_o the_o whole_a err_v controversy_n consist_v namely_o whether_o the_o church_n may_v err_v in_o this_o world_n whether_o it_o be_v subject_a unto_o the_o scripture_n or_o the_o scripture_n unto_o it_o to_o the_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v out_o of_o all_o controversy_n &_o doubt_n that_o the_o particular_a member_n of_o the_o church_n may_v err_v &_o do_v daily_o err_v both_o in_o doctrine_n &_o in_o manner_n according_a to_o this_o place_n of_o the_o apostle_n paul_n say_v we_o know_v in_o part_n and_o s._n john_n say_v if_o we_o say_v we_o have_v no_o 1._o sin_n we_o deceive_v ourselves_o if_o any_o man_n will_v go_v about_o to_o exempt_v the_o ancient_a father_n from_o that_o number_n he_o shall_v not_o be_v offend_v if_o we_o believe_v not_o his_o word_n for_o it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n save_v in_o reverence_n which_o we_o owe_v unto_o they_o to_o note_v many_o blemish_n &_o spot_n even_o in_o the_o great_a &_o most_o ancient_a father_n but_o we_o will_v not_o stand_v in_o repeat_v of_o they_o both_o for_o the_o honour_n which_o they_o worthy_o deserve_v &_o also_o for_o that_o the_o lord_n cardinal_n if_o i_o well_o remember_v his_o word_n think_v not_o that_o they_o ought_v rash_o and_o indifferent_o to_o be_v receive_v this_o be_v our_o opnion_n concern_v the_o particular_a member_n of_o the_o church_n who_o perfection_n notwithstanding_o be_v no_o such_o cause_n or_o let_v but_o that_o the_o church_n may_v consist_v of_o they_o for_o the_o faithful_a profit_n by_o lit●…le_n and_o little_a both_o in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o also_o in_o the_o perfection_n of_o manner_n but_o and_o if_o the_o member_n of_o the_o church_n be_v consider_v more_o general_o as_o they_o be_v distribute_v into_o diocese_n &_o province_n shall_v we_o say_v that_o they_o may_v err_v moreover_o if_o i_o be_v not_o deceive_v my_o lord_n cardinal_n think_v of_o late_a that_o particular_a church_n and_o provincial_a counsel_n may_v err_v and_o have_v oftentimes_o err_v and_o true_o this_o thing_n be_v confirm_v by_o so_o long_a experience_n that_o i_o think_v not_o that_o any_o man_n in_o his_o right_a counsel_n wit_n will_v deny_v the_o same_o it_o remain_v therefore_o that_o we_o consider_v the_o whole_a church_n universal_o but_o

of_o our_o faith_n so_o oftentimes_o conclude_v &_o confirm_v namely_o of_o consubstantiation_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n nevertheless_o s._n austin_n confess_v that_o he_o will_v neither_o be_v

will_v object_n &_o say_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v hard_a and_o obscure_a we_o must_v confess_v with_o saint_n paul_n that_o the_o carnal_a man_n do_v not_o understan●…e_a the_o thing_n that_o be_v of_o god_n and_o with_o the_o apostle_n peter_n that_o the_o scripture_n 1._o have_v not_o a_o private_a explication_n and_o if_o the_o obscureness_n of_o the_o scripture_n be_v such_o that_o

furthermore_o what_o do_v they_o 5._o which_o use_v only_o the_o write_n of_o the_o apostle_n before_o there_o be_v any_o commentary_n of_o the_o doctor_n i_o remember_v my_o lord_n cardinal_n that_o you_o say_v that_o the_o firm_a and_o undoubted_a interpretation_n which_o be_v always_o in_o the_o church_n every_o where_o and_o of_o all_o man_n receive_v ought_v to_o be_v embrace_v but_o who_o will_v certify_v we_o of_o those_o three_o principal_a point_n furthermore_o if_o we_o come_v to_o these_o word_n always_o and_o of_o all_o man_n at_o what_o time_n shall_v we_o begin_v but_o only_o at_o the_o apostolical_a church_n and_o who_o shall_v be_v count_v the_o first_o but_o the_o apostle_n themselves_o who_o story_n luke_n have_v so_o faithful_o describe_v and_o be_v also_o to_o be_v

make_v to_o all_o error_n and_o true_o by_o this_o way_n satan_n have_v great_o break_v into_o the_o lord_n vineyard_n nevertheless_o we_o do_v not_o deny_v that_o god_n before_o moses_n time_n order_v and_o teach_v his_o church_n by_o vision_n and_o revelation_n and_o that_o the_o apostle_n build_v the_o church_n with_o their_o own_o voice_n before_o they_o have_v write_v any_o thing_n but_o why_o will_v god_n the_o number_n and_o wickedness_n of_o man_n increace_v have_v this_o doctrine_n to_o be_v describe_v which_o be_v preach_v and_o know_v to_o all_o man_n for_o this_o cause_n

this_o be_v always_o firm_a and_o certain_a that_o the_o apostle_n and_o true_a shepherd_n never_o appoint_v rite_n either_o dirict_o or_o inderect_o contrary_a to_o wholesome_a doctrine_n or_o
