A87512	The want of church-government no warrant for a totall omission of the Lords Supper. Or, A brief and scholastical debate of that question, which hath so wonderfully perplexed many, both ministers and people. Whether or no, the sacrament of the Lords Supper may (according to presbyterial principles) be lawfully administred in an un-presbyterated church, that is, a church destitute of ruling elders. Wherein the affirmative is confirmed by many arguments, and cleared from objections, especially such as are drawn from the unavoidablenesse of mixt communions without ecclesiastical discipline. / By Henry Jeanes, minister of Gods Word at Chedzoy in Sommerset-shire.	Jeanes, Henry, 1611-1662.	1650 (1650)	Wing J511; Thomason E618_6; ESTC R202652	58,879	80

in_o any_o church_n whether_o presbyterated_a or_o unpresbyterated_n and_o indeed_o this_o plea_n of_o harm_n accrue_v unto_o unworthy_a receiver_n by_o the_o lord_n supper_n will_v hold_v as_o well_o

so_o the_o lord_n supper_n may_v do_v they_o harm_n not_o good_a shall_v the_o minister_n then_o whole_o refrain_v from_o administer_a the_o lord_n supper_n unto_o this_o also_o you_o may_v add_v that_o scandalous_a person_n may_v be_v know_v to_o be_v such_o unto_o the_o minister_n and_o yet_o he_o may_v not_o be_v able_a by_o sufficient_a testimony_n to_o prove_v they_o to_o be_v so_o in_o such_o a_o case_n he_o know_v that_o these_o scandalous_a person_n will_v without_o a_o miracle_n eat_v and_o drink_v their_o own_o judgement_n and_o yet_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v not_o say_v that_o for_o this_o he_o be_v to_o forbear_v dispensation_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n until_o their_o scandal_n can_v be_v detect_v either_o by_o proof_n or_o their_o own_o confession_n and_o this_o of_o the_o first_o argument_n the_o commandment_n we_o have_v for_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n what_o if_o some_o do_v not_o believe_v say_v the_o apostle_n shall_v their_o

the_o lord_n command_v for_o administration_n thereof_o without_o effect_n in_o a_o second_o place_n we_o be_v to_o come_v to_o the_o example_n we_o have_v in_o scripture_n for_o the_o administration_n of_o this_o sacrament_n exemplo_fw-la the_o second_o argument_n ab_fw-la exemplo_fw-la now_o there_o be_v not_o throughout_o the_o whole_a scripture_n any_o one_o example_n of_o the_o

shall_v argue_v from_o example_n not_o only_o negative_o but_o also_o affirmative_o and_o inquire_v what_o patronage_n the_o administration_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n in_o a_o un-presbytera●ed_n church_n have_v from_o they_o the_o first_o example_n that_o i_o shall_v instance_n in_o shall_v be_v that_o of_o the_o first_o administration_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n by_o our_o saviour_n which_o
