A77729	An answer to those questions propounded by the Parliament to the Assembly of Divines, touching jus divinum in matter of church-government. Wherein is clearly proved from Scripture, that the Presbyterial government is jure devino, of divine institution, and according to the will and appointment of Jesus Christ. Licensed, and published according to order.	Bakewell, Thomas, b. 1618 or 19.	1646 (1646)	Wing B526A; Thomason E340_29; ESTC R38569	17,260	20

suspend_v from_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n such_o offender_n according_o be_v either_o in_o the_o congregational_a eldership_n in_o presbytery_n or_o in_o any_o other_o eldership_n

with_o the_o hair_n out_o or_o uncover_v all_o these_o must_v be_v reform_v for_o these_o be_v scandalous_a and_o then_o there_o be_v inward_a sin_n as_o ignorance_n not_o discern_v the_o lord_n

and_o by_o the_o will_n and_o appointment_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o seven_o question_n be_v whether_o there_o be_v any_o certain_a and_o particular_a rule_n express_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n

the_o land_n and_o punish_v the_o offender_n according_a to_o those_o law_n in_o the_o temporal_a kingdom_n of_o christ_n but_o he_o may_v not_o judge_v and_o determine_v of_o they_o in_o the_o

be_v exclude_v as_o i_o show_v before_o the_o nine_o question_n be_v whether_o the_o provision_n of_o commissioner_n to_o judge_v of_o scandal_n not_o enumerate_v as_o they_o be_v authorize_v by_o the_o ordinance_n of_o parliament_n be_v contrary_a to_o that_o way_n of_o government_n which_o christ_n have_v appoint_v in_o his_o church_n and_o wherein_o they_o be_v so_o contrary_a i_o answer_v that_o christ_n alone_o be_v to_o give_v both_o office_n and_o officer_n and_o also_o their_o name_n but_o christ_n never_o give_v any_o such_o for_o his_o church_n as_o commissioner_n neither_o must_v parliament_n create_v any_o name_n or_o office_n or_o officer_n as_o their_o creature_n to_o be_v set_v up_o and_o appoint_v their_o work_n in_o the_o church_n it_o be_v a_o great_a affront_n to_o christ_n the_o king_n of_o the_o church_n to_o do_v it_o it_o be_v observable_a david_n say_v christ_n receive_v gift_n for_o man_n psal_n 68.18_o and_o then_o paul_n say_v he_o give_v gift_n to_o man_n eph._n 4.11_o so_o then_o christ_n as_o mediator_n receive_v those_o gift_n of_o his_o father_n and_o then_o give_v they_o to_o his_o church_n but_o there_o be_v but_o one_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n 1_o tim._n 2.5_o then_o there_o be_v none_o but_o he_o that_o receive_v those_o gift_n for_o the_o church_n and_o therefore_o no_o other_o can_v give_v they_o again_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o parliament_n will_v not_o bear_v they_o out_o when_o christ_n will_v disclaim_v they_o as_o usurper_n who_o he_o never_o palce_v in_o the_o

send_v they_o be_v themselves_o place_v by_o christ_n in_o his_o temporal_a kingdom_n the_o state_n or_o commonwealth_n to_o govern_v that_o and_o place_n officer_n in_o it_o but_o they_o may_v not_o ordain_v church-officer_n that_o must_v be_v do_v by_o church-officer_n and_o that_o successive_o from_o christ_n who_o first_o ordain_v the_o twelve_o and_o then_o the_o seventy_o and_o then_o the_o

say_v paul_n i_o leave_v thou_o to_o ordain_v elder_n in_o every_o church_n tit._n 1.5_o and_o so_o it_o have_v be_v by_o they_o successive_o to_o this_o day_n then_o i_o conclude_v that_o for_o state-officer_n either_o to_o ordain_v elder_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v in_o the_o church_n or_o to_o create_v new_a officer_n in_o the_o church_n be_v contrary_a to_o that_o way_n of_o government_n which_o christ_n have_v appoint_v in_o his_o church_n and_o i_o have_v show_v wherein_o it_o be_v so_o contrary_a the_o ten_o and_o last_o be_v only_o a_o persuasion_n that_o those_o of_o the_o
