bishop_n of_o rome_n call_v vitalianus_n do_v the_o same_o as_o it_o be_v write_v in_o the_o decree_n in_o the_o 63._o distinction_n in_o the_o chapter_n beginning_n agatho_n and_o as_o saint_n

follow_v the_o doctrine_n of_o saint_n peter_n and_o saint_n paul_n leave_v unto_o they_o to_o be_v subject_n and_o to_o obey_v their_o prince_n the_o gospel_n also_o teach_v we_o in_o the_o 22_o chapter_n of_o luke_n how_o the_o apostle_n fall_v at_o contention_n among_o themselves_o the_o night_n before_o the_o passion_n who_o among_o they_o shall_v be_v superior_a and_o above_o the_o other_o which_o their_o contention_n christ_n discuss_v say_v on_o this_o wise_a the_o king_n of_o people_n and_o nation_n have_v dominion_n over_o they_o and_o those_o that_o have_v power_n over_o they_o be_v call_v benefactor_n of_o they_o but_o so_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v amog_v you_o but_o whosoever_o among_o you_o be_v the_o great_a shall_v be_v as_o the_o young_a and_o whosoever_o among_o you_o shall_v be_v chief_a shall_v be_v as_o a_o servant_n and_o a_o minister_n for_o who_o be_v superior_a he_o that_o sit_v at_o the_o table_n or_o he_o that_o serve_v at_o the_o table_n be_v not_o he_o superior_a that_o sit_v but_o i_o be_o among_o you_o as_o he_o that_o minister_v and_o serve_v and_o you_o be_v those_o that_o have_v bid_v with_o i_o in_o my_o temptation_n and_o i_o ordain_v for_o you_o as_o my_o father_n have_v ordain_v for_o i_o a_o kingdom_n that_o you_o shall_v eat_v and_o drink_v at_o my_o board_n in_o my_o kingdom_n and_o shall_v sit_v upon_o seat_n judge_v the_o twelve_o tribe_n of_o israel_n here_o we_o do_v see_v that_o christ_n will_v have_v the_o meek_a and_o most_o humble_a to_o be_v chief_a in_o his_o flock_n by_o humility_n and_o by_o service_n do_v to_o other_o as_o christ_n by_o example_n have_v wash_v the_o foot_n of_o his_o apostle_n the_o same_o night_n a_o little_a before_o and_o it_o appear_v also_o that_o he_o will_v not_o leave_v among_o his_o apostle_n a_o worldly_a kingdom_n whereby_o they_o shall_v worldly_a reign_v over_o other_o but_o that_o he_o ordain_v for_o they_o a_o heavenly_a kingdom_n to_o reign_v with_o he_o in_o heaven_n and_o to_o sit_v with_o he_o in_o judgement_n to_o judge_v the_o 12_o tribe_n of_o israel_n that_o be_v to_o say_v by_o the_o example_n of_o their_o faith_n who_o believe_v in_o christ_n to_o condemn_v the_o infidelity_n of_o the_o jew_n that_o will_v not_o believe_v in_o he_o but_o shameful_o put_v he_o to_o death_n so_o that_o hereby_o it_o be_v prove_v plain_o that_o christ_n leave_v to_o his_o disciple_n no_o worldly_a kingdom_n here_o in_o earth_n to_o have_v prince_n under_o they_o a_o like_a discuss_n of_o this_o contention_n of_o superiority_n which_o another_o time_n rise_v also_o among_o the_o apostle_n be_v contain_v in_o the_o ten_o chapter_n of_o mark_n and_o the_o twenty_o chapter_n of_o matthew_n and_o by_o like_a word_n absolve_v that_o meekness_n and_o not_o superiority_n shall_v be_v regard_v among_o they_o for_o the_o apostle_n before_o the_o come_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n after_o the_o time_n of_o the_o resurrection_n even_o at_o the_o time_n of_o christ_n ascension_n ask_v he_o whether_o he_o will_v restore_v again_o the_o worldly_a kingdom_n of_o israel_n for_o which_o kingdom_n at_o that_o time_n they_o do_v look_v as_o cleophas_n say_v in_o the_o last_o chapter_n of_o luke_n unto_o christ_n appear_v to_o he_o and_o his_o fellow_n go_v in_o to_o emaus_n we_o trust_v that_o he_o be_v the_o man_n that_o shall_v have_v redeem_v israel_n and_o yet_o unto_o this_o day_n the_o jew_n do_v look_v for_o their_o messiah_n to_o come_v and_o to_o reign_v among_o they_o by_o a_o worldly_a kingdom_n in_o jerusalem_n as_o david_n do_v but_o christ_n leave_v to_o his_o disciple_n no_o such_o worldly_a kingdom_n but_o say_v it_o shall_v not_o be_v so_o among_o they_o as_o it_o be_v among_o the_o prince_n of_o the_o world_n and_o where_o christ_n in_o the_o last_o chapter_n of_o matthew_n say_v after_o his_o resurrection_n all_o power_n be_v give_v to_o i_o in_o heaven_n and_o in_o earth_n so_o that_o both_o in_o his_o godhead_n and_o in_o his_o manhood_n also_o inseparable_o unite_v in_o one_o person_n that_o be_v to_o say_v in_o one_o christ_n and_o two_o nature_n god_n and_o man_n he_o have_v all_o power_n give_v to_o he_o as_o man_n which_o from_o the_o beginning_n he_o ever_o have_v as_o the_o son_n of_o god_n with_o god_n his_o father_n yet_o nevertheless_o he_o never_o change_v the_o authority_n of_o worldly_a king_n and_o prince_n but_o by_o his_o own_o word_n command_v they_o still_o to_o be_v obey_v by_o their_o subject_n as_o they_o have_v be_v before_o his_o incarnation_n say_v in_o the_o 22._o chapter_n of_o matthew_n when_o the_o jew_n ask_v he_o whether_o they_o shall_v pay_v tribute_n to_o caesar_n or_o no_o he_o bid_v they_o give_v to_o caesar_n those_o thing_n that_o be_v he_o and_o to_o god_n those_o thing_n that_o be_v he_o signify_v unto_o they_o that_o tribute_n be_v due_a to_o caesar_n snd_v their_o soul_n be_v due_a to_o god_n and_o in_o the_o 17._o chapter_n of_o matthew_n it_o appear_v that_o christ_n bid_v peter_n pay_v tribute_n for_o he_o and_o his_o disciple_n when_o it_o be_v demand_v of_o he_o and_o christ_n as_o man_n will_v not_o change_v the_o order_n of_o obeisance_n to_o worldly_a prince_n by_o their_o subject_n which_o he_o as_o god_n with_o his_o father_n have_v ordain_v before_o his_o incarnation_n as_o saint_n paul_n testify_v say_v worldly_a power_n be_v ordain_v of_o god_n and_o therefore_o whosoever_o resist_v they_o do_v resist_v god_n and_o that_o christ_n himself_o will_v not_o reign_v here_o in_o earth_n by_o a_o worldly_a and_o temporal_a kingdom_n it_o appear_v in_o the_o 6._o chapter_n of_o john_n where_o after_o he_o have_v feed_v five_o thousand_o jew_n beside_o woman_n and_o child_n with_o five_o barley_n loaf_n and_o two_o fish_n and_o the_o jew_n will_v have_v take_v he_o and_o make_v he_o their_o king_n he_o flee_v from_o they_o and_o will_v not_o consent_v unto_o they_o for_o the_o kingdom_n that_o he_o come_v to_o search_v here_o in_o earth_n be_v not_o a_o worldly_a and_o temporal_a kingdom_n but_o a_o heavenly_a and_o spiritual_a kingdom_n that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o reign_v spiritual_o by_o grace_n and_o faith_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o all_o christian_n and_o faithful_a people_n of_o what_o degree_n or_o of_o what_o nation_n soever_o they_o be_v and_o to_o turn_v all_o people_n and_o nation_n which_o at_o his_o come_n be_v carnal_a and_o live_v after_o the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n to_o be_v spiritual_a and_o to_o live_v after_o the_o lust_n of_o the_o spirit_n that_o christ_n may_v spiritual_o with_o his_o father_n of_o heaven_n reign_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o all_o man_n which_o heavenly_a kingdom_n saint_n john_n baptist_n in_o the_o desert_n preach_v oft_o to_o the_o jew_n say_v repent_v you_o and_o amend_v your_o life_n for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v at_o hand_n after_o who_o death_n christ_n intend_v to_o manifest_v himself_o to_o the_o world_n begin_v his_o preach_v likewise_o say_v do_v penance_n for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v at_o hand_n and_o it_o be_v plain_o express_v in_o the_o 13._o chapter_n of_o matthew_n in_o the_o parable_n liken_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n to_o a_o man_n which_o do_v sow_v good_a seed_n in_o his_o field_n and_o after_o while_o he_o sleep_v his_o enemy_n do_v sow_v evil_a seed_n in_o the_o same_o for_o christ_n expound_v that_o parable_n say_v the_o good_a seed_n be_v the_o child_n and_o inheritor_n of_o the_o kingdom_n so_o the_o kingdom_n that_o christ_n seek_v here_o in_o earth_n be_v a_o spiritual_a and_o heavenly_a kingdom_n and_o christ_n say_v to_o pilate_n in_o the_o 18._o chapter_n of_o john_n my_o kingdom_n be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n and_o therefore_o those_o that_o go_v about_o to_o make_v of_o christ_n spiritual_a kingdom_n a_o worldly_a kingdom_n do_v fall_n into_o error_n of_o some_o heretic_n that_o look_v that_o christ_n after_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n shall_v reign_v with_o all_o his_o saint_n here_o in_o earth_n carnal_o in_o jerusalem_n as_o the_o jew_n do_v believe_v that_o messiah_n be_v yet_o to_o come_v and_o when_o he_o shall_v come_v he_o shall_v reign_v worldly_a in_o jerusalem_n so_o we_o do_v see_v that_o christ_n leave_v the_o worldly_a kingdom_n to_o prince_n of_o the_o world_n as_o be_v before_o express_v but_o he_o commit_v the_o preach_n of_o this_o

some_o man_n that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o his_o mother_n and_o to_o joseph_n who_o man_n take_v to_o be_v his_o father_n to_o who_o he_o be_v subject_a as_o it_o be_v write_v in_o the_o second_o chapter_n of_o luke_n and_o for_o the_o form_n of_o a_o servant_n he_o say_v my_o father_n be_v superior_a unto_o i_o and_o for_o the_o form_n of_o god_n which_o he_o never_o leave_v he_o say_v in_o the_o ten_o chapter_n of_o john_n i_o and_o my_o father_n be_v one_o thing_n that_o be_v to_o say_v one_o substance_n in_o form_n of_o god_n he_o be_v superior_a to_o himself_o and_o in_o form_n of_o man_n he_o be_v inferior_a to_o himself_o and_o therefore_o not_o without_o a_o cause_n the_o scripture_n say_v both_o the_o son_n equal_a to_o the_o father_n and_o the_o father_n superior_a to_o the_o son_n the_o one_o for_o the_o form_n of_o god_n the_o other_o for_o the_o form_n of_o man_n without_o confound_v the_o one_o nature_n into_o the_o other_o both_o nature_n of_o god_n and_o man_n be_v in_o one_o person_n in_o the_o form_n of_o man_n which_o he_o take_v for_o we_o he_o be_v bear_v and_o he_o suffer_v and_o he_o arise_v from_o death_n to_o life_n and_o ascend_v into_o heaven_n by_o the_o first_o two_o that_o be_v to_o say_v by_o his_o birth_n and_o his_o passion_n he_o show_v to_o we_o our_o estate_n by_o the_o two_o last_o that_o be_v to_o say_v his_o resurrection_n and_o his_o ascension_n he_o show_v to_o we_o a_o example_n of_o our_o reward_n the_o two_o first_o all_o that_o be_v bear_v do_v feel_v and_o the_o two_o last_o we_o shall_v attain_v if_o we_o do_v believe_v in_o he_o and_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v christ_n think_v it_o no_o robbery_n to_o be_v equal_a with_o god_n so_o saint_n john_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o his_o gospel_n say_v that_o the_o word_n which_o be_v the_o son_n be_v god_n and_o as_o paul_n say_v here_o that_o he_o do_v abase_v himself_o to_o take_v upon_o he_o the_o form_n of_o a_o servant_n so_o saint_n john_n say_v the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v make_v flesh_n that_o be_v to_o say_v man_n and_o have_v dwell_v among_o we_o god_n and_o man_n in_o one_o person_n for_o as_o the_o number_n of_o person_n be_v not_o increase_v when_o the_o soul_n be_v knit_v to_o the_o body_n to_o make_v thereby_o one_o man_n so_o be_v not_o in_o christ_n the_o number_n of_o person_n increase_v when_o man_n be_v knit_v to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o make_v one_o christ_n it_o follow_v in_o the_o text_n he_o be_v make_v in_o similitude_n of_o man_n that_o be_v to_o say_v he_o take_v all_o our_o nature_n upon_o he_o albeit_o he_o be_v without_o sin_n and_o he_o leave_v no_o carnal_a procreation_n by_o generation_n carnal_a nor_o that_o only_o be_v in_o he_o that_o appear_v in_o outward_a visage_n his_o manhood_n but_o godhead_n also_o be_v in_o he_o for_o he_o be_v not_o only_a man_n but_o in_o his_o person_n godhead_n be_v knit_v with_o manhood_n and_o therefore_o he_o say_v here_o that_o he_o be_v like_a to_o man_n but_o more_o be_v in_o he_o then_o be_v in_o man_n for_o we_o be_v make_v of_o soul_n and_o body_n he_o have_v both_o soul_n and_o body_n and_o godhead_n and_o therefore_o he_o say_v here_o in_o similitude_n of_o man_n as_o saint_n paul_n say_v in_o the_o eight_o chapter_n to_o the_o roman_n god_n send_v his_o son_n into_o the_o world_n in_o similitude_n of_o sinful_a flesh_n not_o because_o he_o lack_v flesh_n but_o because_o the_o flesh_n that_o he_o take_v lack_v sin_n and_o yet_o be_v it_o like_a to_o our_o flesh_n which_o be_v subject_a to_o sin_n like_v by_o nature_n but_o not_o like_a by_o wickedness_n it_o follow_v in_o the_o text_n that_o in_o shape_n he_o be_v find_v as_o a_o man_n that_o be_v to_o say_v where_o he_o be_v without_o bodily_a shape_n he_o take_v upon_o he_o

so_o for_o he_o be_v god_n therewith_o and_o yet_o be_v he_o a_o very_a man_n in_o nature_n not_o in_o fantasy_n and_o imagination_n saint_n paul_n also_o in_o the_o second_o chapter_n of_o the_o first_o epistle_n to_o timothy_n call_v he_o a_o man_n say_v there_o be_v one_o mediator_n of_o god_n and_o man_n a_o man_n christ_n jesu_n and_o as_o he_o be_v in_o the_o form_n of_o god_n perfect_a
