3._o now_o from_o the_o join_v together_o of_o minister_n and_o elder_n in_o the_o primitive_a church_n of_o one_o church_n only_o i_o suppose_v arise_v the_o classical_a or_o national_a combination_n of_o minister_n in_o the_o presbytery_n 4._o all_o these_o have_v somewhat_o of_o truth_n in_o they_o which_o when_o god_n shall_v reveal_v it_o full_o will_v help_v to_o set_v up_o the_o church_n which_o until_o then_o will_v but_o keep_v it_o down_o i_o agree_v with_o presbytery_n 1._o that_o in_o thing_n which_o general_o concern_v the_o church_n nothing_o ought_v to_o be_v do_v without_o consultation_n first_o have_v with_o the_o ministry_n and_o the_o presbytery_n of_o the_o church_n 2._o that_o there_o be_v meeting_n of_o the_o presbytery_n for_o the_o debate_n of_o doubtful_a thing_n 3._o that_o several_a minister_n be_v join_v together_o for_o this_o work_n 4._o that_o one_o minister_n ought_v not_o to_o lord_n it_o over_o another_o in_o the_o church_n they_o be_v coordinate_a in_o the_o ministry_n 5._o that_o every_o minister_n in_o the_o church_n be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d a_o bishop_n over_o his_o flock_n and_o nothing_o to_o be_v do_v therein_o without_o his_o be_v first_o acquaint_v with_o it_o by_o the_o other_o minister_n of_o the_o same_o consociation_n 6._o that_o help_v in_o government_n be_v to_o be_v use_v in_o the_o church_n as_o that_o of_o rule_v elder_n deacon_n widow_n 7._o that_o the_o roll_a elder_n be_v to_o be_v choose_v by_o the_o church_n and_o to_o be_v join_v to_o the_o minister_a elder_n for_o the_o remove_n of_o scandal_n and_o scandalous_a person_n out_o of_o the_o church_n the_o church_n be_v not_o possible_o all_o on_o every_o occasion_n of_o meeting_n to_o be_v present_a nor_o in_o many_o thing_n be_v they_o able_a to_o determine_v and_o therefore_o appoint_v choose_v man_n hereunto_o to_o do_v for_o they_o so_o as_o if_o do_v by_o themselves_o and_o here_o i_o can_v but_o observe_v how_o all_o way_n deduce_v the_o strength_n of_o their_o way_n from_o the_o way_n of_o god_n and_o in_o what_o it_o fail_v of_o that_o it_o lie_v naked_a to_o be_v wound_v by_o the_o adversary_n episcopacy_n plead_v unity_n of_o ministry_n but_o take_v the_o whole_a authority_n to_o itself_o from_o those_o who_o be_v to_o be_v join_v with_o it_o prove_v its_o subversion_n it_o plead_v community_n of_o church_n but_o when_o from_o three_o to_o three_o hundred_o and_o from_o these_o to_o those_o which_o he_o be_v to_o have_v no_o relation_n to_o do_v show_v it_o to_o be_v a_o antichristian_a power_n 2._o presbytery_n plead_v a_o community_n or_o combination_n in_o the_o church_n of_o ministry_n and_o so_o shake_v independency_n which_o have_v not_o any_o combination_n in_o government_n of_o ministry_n 3._o independency_n again_o shake_v presbytery_n in_o its_o combination_n it_o be_v a_o combination_n of_o man_n that_o be_v not_o set_v over_o the_o flock_n nor_o feed_v it_o and_o yet_o exercise_v authority_n over_o they_o 4._o hence_o see_v the_o way_n of_o god_n be_v that_o which_o hold_v up_o and_o cast_v down_o the_o way_n of_o worship_n or_o government_n in_o the_o church_n applic._n 1_o of_o what_o strength_n will_v the_o way_n of_o god_n be_v when_o it_o be_v in_o perfection_n reveal_v unto_o we_o without_o mixture_n of_o humane_a invention_n to_o cast_v down_o all_o other_o way_n of_o worship_n illustrate_v as_o christ_n come_v into_o the_o temple_n whip_v out_o of_o the_o temple_n the_o buyer_n and_o seller_n and_o none_o dare_v to_o stand_v
