continue_v in_o this_o estate_n a_o true_a establish_a visible_a church_n within_z y_z e_z outward_a covenant_n of_o god_n so_o far_o as_o we_o may_v &_o aught_o to_o judge_v by_o his_o word_n they_o doubtless_o for_o mie_a part_n i_o will_v grant_v it_o a_o sound_n maior_n proposition_n and_o if_o he_o shall_v bring_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n for_o instance_n in_o the_o minor_a i_o must_v then_o yield_v to_o his_o argument_n because_o that_o church_n at_o rome_n be_v sometime_o right_o gather_v establish_a and_o within_o the_o covenant_n yet_o even_o then_o i_o suppose_v it_o will_v be_v hard_a for_o he_o to_o make_v the_o like_a assure_a proof_n that_o ever_o her_o daughter_n of_o england_n be_v right_o establish_v into_o that_o christian_n order_n &_o within_o the_o covenant_n but_o i_o doubt_v rather_o and_o by_o her_o present_a estate_n judge_v 2._o that_o she_o be_v among_o the_o child_n of_o her_o mother_n fornication_n 2._o and_o therefore_o without_o the_o covenant_n to_o the_o second_o reason_n it_o will_v also_o hardly_o follow_v that_o because_o some_o faithful_a man_n have_v be_v call_v to_o some_o general_a knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o of_o christ_n in_o this_o estate_n and_o because_o they_o in_o their_o ignorance_n cotynue_v in_o the_o same_o estate_n that_o this_o shall_v therefore_o justify_v the_o outward_a estate_n of_o the_o church_n which_o the_o word_n of_o god_n condemn_v or_o prove_v it_o in_o this_o estate_n the_o true_a establish_a church_n of_o christ_n when_o they_o have_v nothing_o aright_o according_a to_o christ_n ordinance_n as_o we_o have_v prove_v in_o this_o treatise_n whether_o i_o refer_v for_o a_o more_o full_a answer_n of_o these_o reason_n haste_v to_o the_o second_o poyncte_n wherein_o i_o before_o show_v how_o god_n command_v all_o his_o faithful_a servant_n of_o what_o estate_n or_o degree_n soever_o to_o flee_v out_o of_o babylon_n the_o false_a church_n and_o be_v escape_v not_o to_o stand_v still_o to_o remember_v the_o lord_n a_o far_o off_o to_o let_v jerusalem_n come_v into_o their_o mind_n to_o go_v up_o to_o zion_n to_o seek_v out_o and_o to_o repair_v unto_o the_o place_n where_o god_n have_v put_v his_o name_n to_o seek_v the_o church_n and_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n to_o take_v his_o yoke_n upon_o they_o to_o assemble_v together_o in_o his_o name_n with_o his_o promise_n of_o direction_n and_o protection_n and_o with_o his_o authority_n to_o establish_v his_o office_n and_o ordinance_n among_o they_o give_v by_o he_o to_o the_o ministry_n and_o government_n of_o his_o church_n unto_o the_o world_n end_n there_o to_o lead_v their_o life_n together_o in_o all_o mutual_a duty_n in_o his_o holy_a order_n faith_n and_o fear_n now_o as_o we_o show_v all_o particular_a and_o private_a man_n whosoever_o to_o be_v call_v out_o of_o the_o false_a church_n from_o confusion_n and_o out_o of_o the_o world_n from_o dispersion_n unto_o the_o true_a church_n unto_o order_n so_o likewise_o show_v we_o that_o all_o these_o faithful_a person_n whosoever_o be_v as_o yet_o but_o private_a man_n at_o their_o first_o come_v out_o of_o the_o false_a church_n and_o gather_v together_o none_o of_o they_o be_v as_o yet_o call_v to_o any_o ecclesiastical_a office_n or_o function_n in_o the_o church_n it_o not_o be_v as_o yet_o establish_v into_o order_n whereupon_o we_o conclude_v and_o still_o of_o necessity_n enforce_v that_o see_v god_n call_v all_o his_o servant_n out_o of_o confusion_n and_o will_v not_o have_v they_o live_v in_o dissipation_n or_o disorder_n but_o only_o in_o this_o order_n which_o he_o have_v prescribe_v in_o his_o word_n and_o have_v give_v his_o church_n authority_n and_o commandment_n to_o erect_v retain_v and_o observe_v this_o order_n unto_o the_o world_n end_n and_o see_v in_o this_o estate_n the_o church_n now_o consist_v but_o of_o private_a man_n that_o therefore_o the_o faithful_a be_v as_o yet_o but_o private_a man_n aught_o by_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n to_o assemble_v &_o join_v themselves_o together_o in_o the_o name_n &_o faith_n of_o christ_n and_o in_o all_o mutual_a duty_n orderly_o to_o proceed_v according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o word_n to_o a_o holy_a choice_n &_o use_n of_o such_o office_n &_o ordinance_n as_o christ_n have_v ordain_v to_o the_o service_n &_o government_n of_o his_o church_n and_o sure_o be_v not_o mr._n g._n as_o forgeatful_a as_o he_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o scripture_n he_o can_v not_o but_o have_v see_v by_o the_o very_a phrase_n the_o first_o proposition_n confirm_v by_o many_o scripture_n the_o second_o by_o many_o prophecy_n of_o this_o general_a defection_n and_o if_o not_o verify_v in_o these_o present_a time_n yet_o he_o can_v deny_v but_o some_o former_a not_o long_o sithence_o therefore_o while_o he_o fight_v with_o the_o conclusion_n he_o but_o spurn_v against_o the_o prick_v bewray_v the_o folly_n of_o his_o own_o heart_n and_o no_o way_n avoyd_v or_o defend_v the_o danger_n thereby_o his_o best_a answer_n to_o this_o reason_n or_o rather_o many_o reason_n sum_v up_o be_v as_o he_o think_v to_o turn_v it_o away_o by_o two_o question_n and_o by_o manifold_a contumely_n against_o our_o poor_a person_n or_o to_o say_v as_o it_o be_v by_o inaudible_a blasphemy_n against_o the_o church_n of_o god_n liken_v the_o assembly_n of_o the_o faithful_a gather_v in_o the_o name_n and_o join_v together_o in_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n procede_v to_o th'establish_v and_o exercise_n of_o christ_n or_o dinance_n to_o the_o rebellious_a company_n of_o corath_n dathan_n &_o abyram_n to_o a_o rout_n of_o mutynous_a apprentice_n assemble_v without_o leave_n of_o their_o prince_n to_o choose_v a_o lord_n maior_fw-la etc._n etc._n his_o first_o question_n be_v that_o if_o all_o be_v private_a at_o the_o first_o come_v out_o of_o the_o false_a church_n who_o they_o be_v that_o call_v they_o together_o or_o whether_o their_o come_n together_o do_v make_v they_o otherwise_o then_o private_a we_o answer_v that_o for_o any_o thing_n we_o can_v see_v or_o may_v judge_v by_o the_o word_n they_o be_v but_o private_a man_n that_o first_o call_v they_o out_o of_o the_o false_a church_n and_o that_o cause_v they_o to_o assemble_v together_o howsoever_o peradventure_o endue_v with_o more_o excellent_a

to_o a_o right_a choice_n of_o minister_n &c_n &c_n according_a to_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n his_o next_o stombling-block_n or_o question_n be_v who_o shall_v ordain_v these_o pastor_n &_o

here_o again_o do_v answer_n that_o the_o church_n have_v always_o the_o power_n to_o choose_v and_o ordain_v their_o own_o minister_n whereunto_o it_o ought_v to_o use_v the_o most_o fit_a

that_o god_n exhibit_v for_o this_o power_n of_o ordination_n be_v not_o as_o mr._n g._n and_o the_o unruly_a clergy_n of_o these_o day_n suppose_v derive_v from_o the_o apostle_n &_o evangelist_n unto_o the_o permanent_a ministry_n of_o pastor_n and_o elder_n neither_o belong_v it_o by_o any_o peculiar_a right_n to_o their_o office_n and_o person_n segregate_v from_o the_o church_n but_o it_o
