of_o the_o apostle_n as_o it_o do_v to_o he_o and_o that_o therefore_o whatever_o power_n may_v be_v here_o promise_v to_o he_o over_o the_o church_n there_o be_v none_o promise_v over_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o that_o consequent_o his_o successor_n can_v claim_v nothing_o from_o hence_o over_o the_o successor_n of_o all_o the_o apostle_n the_o other_o bishop_n of_o the_o christian_a church_n but_o to_o consider_v this_o matter_n more_o particular_o we_o may_v take_v notice_n 1._o that_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o apprehend_v that_o st._n peter_n have_v here_o any_o peculiar_a power_n promise_v he_o above_o they_o for_o we_o find_v that_o not_o long_o after_o they_o be_v contend_v who_o shall_v be_v the_o great_a by_o which_o its_o plain_a they_o do_v not_o then_o apprehend_v that_o our_o saviour_n have_v already_o determine_v the_o matter_n and_o as_o for_o our_o saviour_n himself_o he_o do_v not_o at_o all_o endeavour_n to_o put_v they_o right_n as_o it_o be_v of_o great_a consequence_n he_o shall_v do_v suppose_v that_o he_o design_v st._n peter_n for_o their_o governor_n but_o he_o endeavour_v to_o teach_v they_o all_o humility_n and_o not_o to_o affect_v power_n or_o authority_n over_o one_o another_o and_o the_o same_o instance_n we_o have_v in_o the_o case_n of_o zebedee_n child_n when_o their_o mother_n come_v to_o desire_v that_o the_o one_o may_v sit_v on_o his_o right_a hand_n and_o the_o other_o on_o his_o left_a in_o his_o kingdom_n that_o be_v that_o they_o may_v be_v the_o person_n of_o chief_a favour_n and_o authority_n with_o he_o their_o petition_n plain_o imply_v that_o they_o know_v nothing_o of_o st._n peter_n prerogative_n and_o our_o saviour_n answer_n which_o you_o may_v see_v at_o large_a mat._n 20._o imply_v as_o plain_o that_o neither_o st._n peter_n nor_o any_o body_n else_o be_v to_o have_v such_o power_n in_o the_o church_n as_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n have_v since_o pretend_v to_o 2._o i_o will_v observe_v that_o these_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n to_o st._n peter_n do_v not_o actual_o invest_v he_o with_o any_o power_n but_o be_v only_o a_o promise_n to_o he_o and_o therefore_o the_o best_a way_n to_o see_v what_o be_v peculiar_a to_o he_o in_o it_o above_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n will_v be_v to_o see_v the_o fulfil_n of_o the_o promise_n and_o his_o be_v actual_o invest_v in_o it_o that_o this_o be_v only_o a_o promise_n appear_v from_o the_o word_n themselves_o which_o run_v in_o the_o future_a tense_n i_o will_v give_v thou_o the_o key_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n and_o i_o believe_v they_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n will_v not_o deny_v this_o because_o they_o say_v that_o the_o apostle_n be_v not_o priest_n till_o our_o saviour_n make_v they_o so_o in_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n now_o if_o we_o consider_v the_o actual_a investiture_n into_o this_o power_n there_o be_v nothing_o peculiar_a to_o saint_n peter_n our_o saviour_n give_v they_o all_o their_o power_n together_o in_o word_n much_o of_o the_o same_o nature_n with_o that_o promise_v before_o to_o st._n peter_n receive_v you_o the_o holy_a ghost_n who_o soever_o sin_n you_o remit_v they_o be_v remit_v and_o who_o soever_o sin_n you_o retain_v they_o be_v retain_v and_o as_o for_o the_o expression_n upon_o this_o rock_n i_o will_v build_v my_o church_n there_o be_v much_o the_o same_o say_v of_o all_o the_o apostle_n the_o church_n be_v say_v to_o be_v build_v upon_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o prophet_n jesus_n christ_n himself_o be_v the_o chief_a cornerstone_n 3._o the_o best_a way_n to_o see_v whether_o st._n peter_n have_v any_o such_o supremacy_n will_v be_v to_o see_v whether_o he_o exercise_v any_o whether_o he_o do_v any_o act_n or_o office_n which_o belong_v to_o so_o high_a a_o power_n there_o must_v be_v constant_o so_o many_o occasion_n for_o the_o exercise_n of_o that_o power_n that_o if_o he_o have_v any_o such_o we_o can_v not_o miss_v of_o instance_n of_o it_o the_o time_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v indeed_o time_n of_o great_a simplicity_n than_o these_o late_a age_n and_o therefore_o i_o do_v not_o expect_v they_o shall_v show_v i_o st._n peter_n command_v after_o the_o manner_n of_o our_o modern_a pope_n but_o if_o they_o can_v show_v i_o any_o one_o single_a act_n of_o authority_n over_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n if_o they_o can_v show_v i_o st._n peter_n of_o himself_o make_v law_n and_o order_n for_o the_o good_a government_n of_o the_o church_n or_o so_o much_o as_o preside_v in_o the_o college_n of_o the_o apostle_n if_o they_o can_v show_v i_o any_o appeal_v make_v to_o he_o or_o controversy_n end_v by_o he_o or_o among_o so_o many_o controversy_n as_o happen_v any_o advice_n to_o repair_v to_o he_o or_o command_v to_o obey_v he_o i_o shall_v not_o shut_v my_o eye_n against_o the_o discovery_n but_o to_o consider_v this_o matter_n a_o little_a more_o particular_o as_o soon_o as_o our_o bless_a saviour_n be_v ascend_v there_o be_v a_o occasion_n give_v to_o exercise_v this_o supremacy_n in_o choose_v a_o new_a apostle_n in_o the_o room_n of_o judas_n act_n 1_o but_o we_o see_v that_o the_o method_n take_v be_v that_o the_o whole_a multitude_n choose_v two_o and_o then_o they_o cast_v lot_n which_o of_o the_o two_o shall_v be_v the_o apostle_n and_o so_o as_o to_o the_o choose_n of_o deacon_n act_n 7._o the_o whole_a multitude_n choose_v they_o and_o present_v they_o not_o to_o peter_n but_o to_o all_o the_o apostle_n to_o be_v ordain_v if_o we_o look_v a_o little_a further_o into_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n to_o ch._n 8._o we_o shall_v find_v the_o apostle_n not_o send_v by_o st._n peter_n up_o and_o down_o to_o their_o business_n as_o occasion_v require_v but_o st._n john_n and_o he_o send_v by_o they_o to_o samaria_n which_o be_v not_o very_o mannerly_a nor_o very_a fit_n have_v they_o know_v he_o to_o be_v their_o sovereign_n act_n 11._o we_o find_v those_o of_o the_o circumcision_n contend_v with_o he_o and_o force_v he_o to_o give_v a_o account_n of_o his_o action_n and_o that_o without_o any_o ceremony_n or_o deference_n proper_a for_o one_o in_o so_o high_a a_o place_n and_o we_o see_v he_o patient_o submit_v to_o it_o without_o stand_v upon_o his_o prerogative_n of_o be_v unaccountable_a without_o chide_v they_o for_o their_o insolence_n or_o any_o thing_n of_o that_o kind_n act_n 15._o we_o find_v a_o solemn_a meeting_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o brethren_n at_o jerusalem_n where_o st._n peter_n speak_v indeed_o as_o any_o other_o man_n may_v have_v do_v but_o do_v not_o preside_v or_o determine_v any_o thing_n the_o appeal_n be_v to_o the_o apostle_n and_o elder_n at_o jerusalem_n not_o to_o he_o alone_o and_o if_o any_o thing_n in_o the_o whole_a meeting_n be_v do_v authoritative_o by_o any_o single_a person_n it_o be_v by_o st._n james_n for_o he_o pass_v sentence_n as_o you_o may_v see_v verse_n 19_o if_o we_o go_v to_o the_o epistle_n we_o shall_v find_v as_o little_a evidence_n of_o his_o authority_n as_o we_o have_v in_o the_o history_n of_o the_o church_n in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n the_o first_o epistle_n be_v that_o to_o the_o roman_n not_o from_o st._n peter_n but_o from_o st._n paul_n where_o there_o be_v not_o the_o least_o notice_n take_v either_o of_o st._n peter_n or_o of_o the_o great_a prerogative_n of_o that_o church_n which_o one_o will_v think_v can_v hardly_o be_v avoid_v if_o st._n paul_n have_v know_v any_o thing_n of_o they_o nay_o he_o say_v some_o thing_n which_o direct_o contradict_v their_o pretence_n which_o you_o may_v see_v chap._n 11._o he_o tell_v they_o there_o that_o he_o speak_v to_o they_o who_o be_v gentile_n as_o be_v the_o apostle_n of_o the_o gentile_n and_o if_o so_o st._n peter_n must_v not_o have_v have_v so_o near_o a_o relation_n to_o they_o because_o he_o be_v the_o apostle_n of_o the_o jew_n then_o he_o proceed_v to_o advise_v they_o to_o have_v a_o care_n of_o themselves_o lest_o they_o shall_v fall_v away_o and_o be_v cut_v off_o as_o you_o may_v see_v for_o 20_o 21._o be_v not_o high-minded_a but_o fear_v for_o if_o god_n spare_v not_o the_o natural_a branch_n take_v heed_n lest_o he_o also_o spare_v not_o thou_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o st._n paul_n at_o that_o time_n know_v nothing_o of_o the_o great_a privilege_n of_o that_o church_n of_o its_o be_v the_o mother_n and_o mistress_n of_o all_o church_n of_o its_o be_v the_o centre_n of_o church_n unity_n and_o of_o its_o be_v infallible_o secure_v from_o error_n and_o apostasy_n if_o we_o go_v on_o to_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o corinthian_n we_o shall_v sin_v there_o a_o
