by_o the_o mystery_n of_o faith_n be_v not_o requisite_a in_o these_o to_o who_o be_v only_o commit_v the_o oversight_n of_o the_o poor_a more_o yet_o lay_v elder_n can_v answer_v to_o the_o priest_n because_o the_o priest_n sacrifice_v as_o well_o as_o the_o high_a priest_n and_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n between_o they_o in_o regard_n of_o their_o office_n of_o sacrifice_v except_o that_o the_o high_a priest_n be_v only_o appoint_v by_o god_n to_o offer_v sacrifice_n within_o the_o veil_n once_o in_o the_o year_n for_o his_o own_o sin_n and_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o people_n but_o the_o high_a priest_n and_o the_o inferior_a priest_n agree_v in_o these_o particular_n they_o both_o burn_v incense_n and_o offer_a sacrifice_n 1_o chron._n 6.49_o they_o both_o sound_v the_o trumpet_n number_n 10_o and_o they_o both_o slay_v the_o sacrifice_n 2_o chron._n 29.22_o they_o both_o instruct_v the_o people_n malachi_n 2.5_o they_o both_o judge_v of_o leprosy_n leviticus_n 13.2_o so_o that_o if_o lay_v elder_n will_v needs_o succeed_v in_o place_n of_o inferior_a priest_n and_o be_v the_o second_o degree_n of_o church_n governor_n they_o must_v preach_v and_o administer_v the_o sacrament_n and_o so_o turn_v pastor_n and_o doctor_n and_o then_o the_o preach_a elder_n must_v be_v bishop_n for_o they_o must_v be_v a_o degree_n above_o they_o now_o follow_v to_o show_v you_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o last_o branch_n of_o the_o assumption_n that_o three_o rank_n of_o church_n governor_n have_v govern_v the_o church_n of_o god_n since_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n but_o because_o it_o will_v take_v up_o much_o time_n and_o paper_n and_o may_v be_v wearisome_a to_o the_o reader_n i_o refer_v he_o to_o the_o write_n of_o many_o learned_a divine_n who_o have_v prove_v that_o point_n to_o the_o full_a i_o dare_v say_v we_o may_v as_o well_o deny_v all_o the_o humane_a history_n that_o ever_o be_v write_v as_o deny_v the_o clear_a evidence_n of_o so_o many_o history_n whereby_o episcopal_a government_n be_v defend_v and_o account_v by_o all_o the_o ancient_n except_o aerius_n who_o be_v enroll_v among_o heretic_n by_o augustine_n and_o epiphanius_n for_o his_o pain_n for_o the_o first_o order_n of_o church_n government_n have_v always_o two_o subordinate_a to_o it_o inferior_a bishop_n and_o deacon_n but_o here_o i_o know_v it_o will_v be_v say_v that_o i_o confound_v apostles_n and_o the_o chief_a bishop_n together_o and_o evangelist_n and_o inferior_a bishop_n whereas_o apostle_n and_o evangelist_n be_v extraordinary_a calling_n and_o cease_v with_o themselves_o ans_fw-fr true_o this_o mistake_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o our_o dissent_v one_o from_o another_o in_o this_o point_n for_o if_o we_o do_v hold_v the_o calling_n of_o apostle_n and_o evangelist_n to_o be_v appoint_v by_o christ_n to_o continue_v in_o the_o christian_a church_n for_o the_o government_n thereof_o until_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n as_o they_o be_v indeed_o this_o division_n that_o be_v among_o we_o have_v never_o be_v and_o therefore_o i_o will_v endeavour_v by_o god_n grace_n to_o prove_v both_o by_o reason_n and_o scripture_n that_o these_o calling_n be_v ordinary_a and_o can_v without_o high_a sacrilege_n be_v cast_v out_o of_o god_n church_n i_o will_v show_v you_o then_o in_o what_o respect_v their_o call_n be_v ordinary_a and_o perpetual_o necessary_a for_o the_o government_n of_o the_o church_n and_o for_o what_o respect_v it_o be_v call_v extraordinary_a it_o be_v ordinary_a and_o perpetual_o necessary_a in_o regard_n of_o that_o power_n which_o christ_n confer_v upon_o they_o to_o preach_v the_o word_n and_o administer_v the_o sacrament_n and_o also_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o power_n of_o absolution_n and_o excommunication_n ordination_n and_o jurisdiction_n spiritual_a which_o our_o saviour_n also_o grant_v unto_o they_o as_o all_o man_n confess_v and_o in_o regard_n of_o all_o those_o part_n of_o the_o episcopal_a function_n to_o be_v continue_v until_o the_o second_o come_v of_o our_o saviour_n and_o i_o think_v no_o man_n shall_v deny_v this_o neither_o it_o be_v call_v extraordinary_a for_o these_o respect_n follow_v first_o because_o they_o be_v extraordinary_a person_n not_o be_v of_o the_o tribe_n of_o levi_n who_o have_v only_o ordinary_a power_n in_o those_o day_n to_o be_v instrument_n of_o god_n public_a worship_n and_o to_o serve_v at_o the_o altar_n next_o because_o their_o gift_n be_v extraordinary_a for_o christ_n who_o be_v anoint_v with_o the_o oil_n of_o gladness_n above_o his_o fellow_n and_o have_v the_o spirit_n in_o super-abundance_n he_o give_v his_o apostle_n a_o abundant_a measure_n of_o the_o spirit_n but_o to_o after-age_n he_o impart_v only_o a_o certain_a sufficiency_n grace_n for_o grace_n three_o the_o extent_n of_o their_o charge_n be_v extraordinary_a they_o be_v tie_v to_o no_o settle_a residence_n but_o the_o whole_a world_n be_v their_o diocese_n go_v you_o unto_o all_o the_o world_n say_v our_o saviour_n four_o the_o manner_n of_o their_o call_n be_v extraordinary_a without_o education_n trial_n or_o ordination_n five_o they_o have_v the_o infallibility_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o matter_n of_o faith_n they_o can_v not_o err_v and_o last_o their_o call_n be_v extraordinary_a quo_fw-la ad_fw-la ante_fw-la ●ut_v not_o quo_fw-la ad_fw-la post_fw-la even_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o ordinary_a part_n of_o the_o ministerial_a function_n quo_fw-la ad_fw-la ante_fw-la because_o the_o call_n of_o churchman_n in_o those_o day_n be_v to_o offer_v up_o sacrifice_n unto_o god_n of_o bullock_n ram_n and_o lamb_n and_o other_o creature_n and_o to_o burn_v incense_n into_o he_o but_o so_o be_v not_o the_o call_n of_o apostle_n their_o call_n be_v to_o preach_v the_o word_n and_o administer_v the_o sacrament_n open_v the_o gate_n of_o heaven_n to_o the_o penitent_a and_o shut_v they_o upon_o the_o impenitent_a etc._n etc._n and_o so_o i_o may_v say_v their_o call_v in_o analogy_n to_o the_o priest_n call_v under_o the_o law_n be_v to_o offer_v up_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o prayer_n praise_v and_o thanksgiving_n to_o god_n and_o to_o teach_v every_o man_n to_o present_v their_o body_n in_o a_o live_n holy_a and_o acceptable_a sacrifice_n quo_fw-la ad_fw-la post_fw-la it_o be_v not_o extraordinary_a because_o christ_n establish_v that_o government_n for_o the_o christian_a church_n in_o all_o age_n to_o come_v or_o else_o none_o at_o all_o for_o other_o we_o see_v not_o but_o this_o be_v manifest_a yea_o our_o saviour_n continue_v the_o apostolical_a and_o episcopal_a call_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o substance_n of_o it_o in_o the_o full_a latitude_n of_o apostolical_a authority_n and_o all_o this_o i_o will_v prove_v after_o this_o manner_n and_o first_o if_o the_o calling_n of_o the_o high_a priest_n priests_z and_o levit_n be_v not_o extraordinary_a quo_fw-la ad_fw-la post_fw-la in_o the_o day_n of_o moses_n then_o the_o calling_n of_o apostle_n evangelist_n and_o deacon_n be_v not_o extraordinary_a quo_fw-la ad_fw-la post_fw-la in_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n but_o the_o first_o be_v true_a and_o therefore_o the_o second_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o connexion_n of_o the_o proposition_n be_v this_o because_o those_o calling_n of_o priest_n and_o levit_n be_v new_o establish_v in_o the_o house_n of_o god_n and_o the_o church_n be_v not_o so_o govern_v before_o and_o so_o although_o they_o be_v extraordinary_a quo_fw-la ad_fw-la ante_fw-la in_o regard_n of_o the_o time_n bypass_a yet_o not_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o time_n to_o come_v so_o i_o think_v that_o these_o calling_n establish_v by_o christ_n for_o the_o government_n of_o the_o church_n under_o the_o gospel_n although_o they_o be_v extraordinary_a in_o regard_n of_o the_o time_n past_a yet_o not_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o time_n to_o come_v more_o than_o the_o calling_n of_o the_o priest_n and_o levit_n under_o the_o law_n for_o why_o shall_v these_o governor_n institute_v by_o christ_n in_o the_o insancie_n of_o the_o church_n cease_v to_o be_v of_o that_o dignity_n and_o authority_n in_o after_o age_n that_o they_o be_v of_o in_o the_o first_o constitution_n more_o than_o those_o governor_n which_o his_o father_n appoint_v to_o rule_v the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n at_o the_o first_o promulgation_n of_o the_o law_n i_o will_v fain_o have_v my_o opposite_a to_o show_v i_o a_o reason_n for_o the_o one_o more_o than_o the_o other_o true_o those_o who_o take_v offence_n at_o the_o superiority_n of_o church_n governor_n under_o the_o law_n may_v have_v allege_v that_o after_o the_o day_n of_o moses_n and_o aaron_n churchman_n be_v all_o to_o be_v of_o equal_a authority_n because_o their_o call_n be_v extraordinary_a in_o regard_n of_o the_o time_n past_a but_o i_o be_o confident_a that_o as_o god_n the_o father_n appoint_v the_o one_o government_n to_o remain_v until_o his_o son_n come_v in_o
