company_n of_o presbyter_n act_n 8.14_o and_o 11.22_o and_o 15.6_o 7_o 8._o to_o the_o 30._o and_o 1_o cor._n 5.3_o 4_o 5._o answer_n these_o thing_n be_v do_v in_o the_o infancy_n of_o the_o church_n

that_o be_v do_v in_o they_o be_v do_v by_o apostolical_a power_n by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o apostle_n they_o be_v convene_v together_o by_o the_o apostle_n moderation_n those_o meeting_n be_v

the_o consent_n of_o their_o brethren_n of_o a_o inferior_a order_n you_o will_v find_v all_o that_o i_o have_v say_v true_a if_o you_o will_v be_v please_v to_o see_v the_o place_n but_o most_o clear_o it_o appear_v 1_o cor._n 5.3_o 4_o 5._o where_o the_o apostle_n by_o his_o power_n and_o authority_n command_v the_o corinthian_a minister_n to_o excommunicate_v the_o incestuous_a person_n in_o a_o open_a assembly_n or_o rather_o to_o intimate_v that_o excommunication_n which_o he_o have_v already_o pronounce_v for_o thus_o he_o speak_v for_o i_o very_o as_o absent_v in_o body_n but_o present_a in_o spirit_n have_v judge_v already_o as_o though_o i_o be_v present_a concern_v he_o that_o have_v do_v this_o deed_n in_o the_o name_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n when_o you_o be_v gather_v together_o and_o my_o spirit_n with_o the_o power_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n to_o deliver_v such_o a_o one_o to_o satan_n for_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o flesh_n that_o the_o spirit_n may_v be_v save_v in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n i_o hope_v this_o meeting_n be_v enjoin_v by_o the_o apostle_n upon_o a_o extraordinary_a occasion_n &_o nothing_o be_v do_v but_o by_o his_o special_a appointment_n here_o be_v nothing_o to_o warrant_v the_o authority_n of_o presbyterial_a government_n there_o seem_v something_o to_o be_v in_o the_o word_n for_o parochial_a if_o there_o have_v be_v parish_n and_o lay-elders_a in_o those_o day_n and_o true_o if_o i_o be_v not_o of_o that_o judgement_n that_o the_o call_v of_o the_o apostle_n be_v a_o ordinary_a call_v and_o to_o be_v continue_v with_o the_o same_o latitude_n of_o power_n and_o authority_n in_o their_o successor_n until_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n i_o may_v easy_o be_v move_v to_o approve_v of_o parochial_a government_n but_o never_o of_o presbyterial_a and_o true_o if_o the_o calling_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o evangelist_n be_v not_o acknowledge_v to_o be_v institute_v by_o christ_n for_o the_o perpetual_a government_n of_o god_n church_n parochial_a government_n be_v that_o which_o have_v great_a show_n of_o warrant_n in_o the_o scripture_n as_o for_o presbyterial_a it_o have_v not_o so_o much_o as_o any_o show_n at_o all_o in_o the_o whole_a book_n of_o god_n now_o follow_v that_o i_o clear_v the_o doubt_n and_o first_o i_o know_v it_o will_v be_v object_v that_o by_o this_o doctrine_n i_o condemn_v all_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v govern_v after_o that_o manner_n ans_fw-fr i_o condemn_v not_o the_o church_n but_o the_o government_n some_o perhaps_o may_v reply_v that_o since_o i_o make_v episcopal_a government_n to_o be_v christ_n institution_n i_o charge_v they_o with_o a_o very_a gross_a error_n i_o answer_v let_v they_o see_v to_o that_o i_o can_v call_v evil_a good_a nor_o good_a evil_n unless_o i_o make_v myself_o liable_a to_o the_o curse_n pronounce_v neither_o will_v any_o thing_n excuse_v they_o except_o necessity_n for_o both_o god_n law_n and_o man_n law_n do_v dispense_v with_o it_o but_o because_o there_o be_v no_o necessity_n let_v man_n beware_v for_o ego_fw-la liberavi_fw-la animam_fw-la meam_fw-la furthermore_o it_o will_v be_v allege_v that_o timothy_n and_o titus_n and_o the_o bishop_n of_o old_a be_v not_o like_o our_o bishop_n they_o have_v not_o that_o power_n and_o authority_n nor_o that_o lordly_a government_n that_o bishop_n have_v now_o they_o be_v not_o baron_n lord_n earl_n prince_n in_o such_o kind_a as_o they_o be_v now_o they_o have_v not_o power_n over_o the_o body_n and_o estate_n of_o offender_n as_o bishop_n have_v now_o they_o may_v not_o punish_v with_o the_o civil_a sword_n as_o well_o as_o the_o spiritual_a ans_fw-fr in_o episcopal_a government_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n the_o one_o be_v spiritual_a and_o de_fw-fr jure_fw-la divino_fw-la by_o divine_a right_n the_o other_o be_v civil_a and_o de_fw-fr dono_fw-la humano_fw-la of_o humane_a gift_n and_o by_o the_o donation_n of_o king_n and_o prince_n that_o be_v their_o civil_a honour_n their_o civil_a power_n their_o temporality_n their_o revenue_n as_o to_o be_v baron_n in_o parliament_n to_o judge_v in_o cause_n temporal_a to_o inflict_v temporal_a punishment_n all_o these_o they_o have_v by_o the_o free_a gift_n of_o king_n and_o prince_n and_o many_o king_n have_v be_v very_o liberal_a in_o this_o kind_n to_o churchman_n and_o not_o without_o warrant_n from_o god_n neither_o according_a to_o that_o of_o the_o apostle_n the_o elder_n that_o rule_v well_o be_v worthy_a of_o double_a honour_n and_o in_o special_a they_o that_o labour_n in_o the_o word_n &_o doctrine_n 1_o tim._n 5._o and_o why_o shall_v any_o man_n be_v offend_v to_o see_v honour_n give_v to_o churchman_n may_v not_o king_n and_o prince_n give_v honour_n to_o any_o subject_n they_o please_v or_o be_v not_o churchman_n capable_a of_o civil_a honour_n and_o power_n now_o under_o the_o gospel_n aswell_o as_o they_o be_v under_o the_o law_n as_o to_o the_o first_o i_o think_v no_o man_n will_v deny_v but_o king_n and_o prince_n may_v advance_v such_o of_o their_o subject_n as_o they_o please_v it_o be_v their_o special_a prerogative_n i_o make_v no_o question_n of_o it_o and_o true_o i_o see_v no_o more_o reason_n that_o any_o man_n shall_v make_v question_n of_o the_o other_o but_o that_o churchman_n be_v as_o capable_a of_o civil_a honour_n and_o power_n now_o under_o the_o gospel_n as_o they_o be_v under_o the_o law_n it_o be_v forbid_v in_o no_o part_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n i_o be_o sure_a have_v god_n forbid_v minister_n to_o give_v their_o advice_n to_o king_n and_o prince_n for_o the_o better_a correct_v of_o vice_n and_o sin_n and_o for_o manage_v all_o thing_n in_o the_o state_n so_o that_o god_n thereby_o may_v be_v the_o more_o glorify_v and_o the_o kingdom_n of_o jesus_n christ_n advance_v or_o have_v god_n forbid_v prince_n to_o crave_v their_o advice_n it_o be_v well_o say_v of_o a_o divive_v that_o it_o be_v well_o with_o the_o church_n when_o godly_a prophet_n hang_v as_o precious_a earring_n at_o the_o prince_n ear_n erasmus_n say_v well_o in_o a_o epistle_n to_o john_n alasco_n if_o we_o have_v more_o bishop_n like_o ambrose_n we_o shall_v have_v more_o emperor_n like_o theodosius_n but_o i_o will_v ask_v any_o man_n this_o question_n have_v not_o christian_a king_n as_o great_a need_n of_o the_o concurrent_a counsel_n and_o assistance_n of_o the_o governor_n of_o the_o church_n now_o as_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n have_v under_o the_o law_n and_o be_v there_o ever_o any_o religious_a king_n among_o the_o jew_n who_o have_v not_o continual_o the_o high_a priest_n to_o second_v he_o in_o all_o his_o affair_n be_v not_o aaron_n next_o unto_o moses_n be_v not_o eleazar_n next_o unto_o josua_n have_v not_o david_n zador_n and_o abiather_n continual_o in_o his_o company_n be_v not_o azariah_n next_o unto_o solomon_n and_o do_v not_o joash_n that_o which_o be_v right_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o lord_n as_o long_o as_o jehoida_o live_v and_o be_v not_o hilkia_n chief_a counsellor_n to_o josia_n and_o amaria_n chief_a judge_n under_o jehosaphat_n true_o i_o hold_v this_o for_o a_o sure_a ground_n that_o what_o ever_o be_v do_v under_o the_o law_n not_o be_v command_v by_o god_n then_o it_o be_v as_o lawful_a for_o we_o now_o under_o the_o gospel_n to_o do_v the_o same_o except_o it_o be_v forbid_v we_o and_o we_o need_v not_o doubt_n but_o it_o will_v be_v as_o well_o approve_v by_o god_n now_o as_o it_o be_v then_o but_o which_o be_v more_o yet_o if_o any_o thing_n be_v command_v by_o god_n under_o the_o law_n which_o be_v not_o ceremonial_a and_o typical_a it_o be_v then_o much_o more_o lawful_a i_o think_v for_o we_o to_o do_v now_o do_v not_o the_o lord_n himself_o command_v the_o people_n of_o
