give_v we_o 33._o a_o distinction_n between_o the_o sentence_n of_o excommunication_n and_o between_o the_o execution_n thereof_o as_o in_o jsrael_n the_o elder_n &_o priest_n have_v a_o rightful_a

second_o in_o that_o place_n of_o their_o treatise_n on_o mat._n 18._o they_o quote_v mat._n 2d_o 20_o as_o allege_v for_o a_o ground_n yet_o they_o give_v not_o any_o answer_n to_o that_o scripture_n but_o still_o call_v upon_o we_o to_o answer_v their_o question_n &_o write_v more_o whereas_o christ_n there_o encommend_v to_o his_o disciple_n of_o all_o nation_n to_o the_o world_n end_n the_o

by_o a_o christian_a people_n though_o they_o want_v officer_n unless_o these_o man_n can_v show_v some_o prohibition_n christ_n require_v to_o observe_v all_o thing_n these_o man_n say_v nay_o not_o

do_v the_o anabaptist_n deny_v baptism_n of_o child_n cal_v for_o scripture_n example_n precept_n &_o ground_n to_o warrant_v it_o as_o these_o do_v now_o in_o this_o case_n 3._o three_o beside_o all_o thing_n heretofore_o write_v they_o have_v a_o ground_n in_o the_o article_n itself_o which_o they_o neither_o do_v nor_o can_v take_v away_o which_o be_v the_o power_n that_o the_o church_n always_o have_v to_o receiv_v in_o member_n and_o therefore_o consequent_o to_o cast_v they_o out_o again_o if_o they_o deserv_v it_o which_o ground_n if_o they_o deny_v they_o in_o effect_n deny_v that_o there_o can_v be_v any_o church_n without_o elder_n contrary_a to_o the_o express_a scripture_n act._n 14.23_o 1._o cor._n 12.28_o tit._n 1.5_o yea_o or_o that_o there_o can_v be_v any_o

because_o there_o want_v elder_n how_o shall_v they_o be_v unite_v with_o he_o the_o head_n 4._o they_o have_v it_o prove_v a_o point_n of_o false_a doctrine_n by_o mr_n johnson_n himsef_n to_o teach_v that_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n have_v not_o always_o power_n to_o receive_v in_o and_o to_o cast_v out_o by_o the_o key_n of_o the_o kingdom_n answer_v to_o m._n jakob_n pag._n 159.160_o 2._o they_o second_o allege_v sundry_a example_n &_o ground_n that_o it_o have_v be_v do_v by_o the_o lord_n himself_o and_o by_o his_o officer_n etc._n etc._n this_o we_o never_o doubt_v of_o but_o a_o church_n have_v officer_n may_v excommunicate_v though_o yet_o the_o proof_n for_o the_o elder_n will_v be_v except_v against_o by_o the_o prelate_n and_o such_o like_a for_o th'example_n of_o abraham_n of_o paul_n of_o titus_n of_o timothee_n and_o of_o the_o priest_n judge_v a_o leper_n make_v rather_o in_o show_n for_o one_o bishop_n then_o for_o a_o church_n of_o elder_n and_o so_o be_v allege_v by_o papist_n for_o the_o prelacy_n the_o other_o scripture_n do_v none_o of_o they_o show_v the_o elder_n power_n to_o excommunicate_v but_o to_o watch_v take_v heed_n reprove_v admonish_v &c_n &c_n all_o which_o the_o prelate_n grant_v to_o their_o inferior_a priest_n who_o yet_o they_o will_v not_o suffer_v to_o excommunicate_v with_o out_o the_o bishop_n or_o his_o official_a as_o these_o will_v not_o the_o church_n without_o a_o eldership_n the_o example_n of_o excommunicate_v by_o the_o ruler_n of_o israel_n i_o will_v turn_v against_o they_o thus_o if_o the_o magistrate_n and_o people_n of_o israel_n may_v not_o only_o punish_v civil_o with_o death_n but_o also_o execute_v a_o spiritual_a censure_n of_o excommunication_n upon_o the_o conscience_n of_o evil_a doer_n though_o they_o have_v want_v minister_n of_o the_o temple_n and_o synagogue_n then_o a_o christian_a magistrate_n and_o people_n may_v do_v so_o now_o though_o they_o want_v minister_n ecclesiastical_a and_o if_o the_o church_n may_v excommunicate_v have_v a_o magistrate_n it_o may_v also_o do_v it_o want_v one_o see_v the_o power_n of_o spiritual_a censure_n depend_v 18.36_o not_o

the_o ministration_n of_o excommunication_n more_o than_o of_o the_o sacrament_n etc._n etc._n this_o we_o have_v consider_v and_o find_v that_o if_o the_o reason_n be_v good_a the_o roll_a elder_n may_v not_o excommunicate_v any_o more_o than_o minister_v the_o sacrament_n which_o whither_o they_o hold_v or_o no_o let_v they_o tell_v we_o in_o their_o next_o for_o they_o know_v well_o the_o
