Priest-hood successively after his departure from this world corporall● he made choyce of men meane and contemptible for his Ambassadors that so the efficacy might app are to be hi● ●nd none of theirs to which end also he loved them as his owne more * The Lord I●sus having made choice of twelve whom the Father had given him of whom Iudas was one and therefore Mat. 1● he called him as the othe● eleven and gave him like power to p●each the Gospell and worke miracles as to the rest ver 1.4 7. yet Ioh. 13. ●e excluds Iudas f●ō tha● choice ve● ●8 for as the cal of Christ 〈◊〉 some●imes unive sally ext●ao●dinary as was this of the Gentiles ●nd sometimes his call and choice is extraordinary and speciall as was that of the 70 Disciples and to some extraordinary and more peculiar as was this call and choice of the 12 Apostles for the Restauration of the world by their labours but the most neerest choice and conjunction of Christ with man is in the object of Iustification by his Spirit imbreathing upon their Spirits by right beliefe of him for so they are his Spouse in the nee●est relation yet mans ungodlinesse may be fo● t●anscendent as that for it God will cut him off from the most glorious priviledge then much more to Iuda● see Cap. 12. see Gods decree in Chapt. 12. peculiarly ●hen other men Ioh. 13 1. only hee excluded Iudas because treacherous from that peculiar respect ver 18. But to those whom he had chosen as before is said he gave promise of his residence with them in his Spirit for hee breathed on them and saith unto them receive yee the Holy Ghost whosoever sinnes you remit they are remitted unto them and whosoever sinnes yee retaine they are retained implying that in their Ambassage as rightly divulging their Commission he in his word by his Spirit will be resident (e) Excommunication rightly administred is an externall manifestation of Gods internall and invisible proceedings upon the spirits and persons of men in the visible Church as did Saint Paul in cutting off the incestuous man from Christs body and afterwards admitted him againe to be ingrafted loosing mankinde from the guilt punishment and prevalencie of sinne but to men obstinatly persisting in their precedent Apostasie in the light of truth and grace hee will detaine the influence of that efflux by his spirit from their spirit as men bound over in Chaines of their own corruptions to their eternall damnation Ioh. 20.22 23. likewise Jesus came and spake unto them saying All power is given unto me in Heaven and Earth goe yee therefore and teach all Nations Baptizing them in the Name of the Father and of the Sonne and of the holy Ghost teaching them to observe al things which I have commanded you and loe I am with you untill the end of the world Implying otherwise not if you from my right Ambassage depart Mat. 28. 28. Likewise to continue the succession of this everlasting Priest-hood to future ages Christ by his Spirit in Saint Paul at Miletus sent to Ephesus and called the Elders of the Church and when they were come to him Saint Paul said unto them Yee know from the first day I came unto Asia after what manner I have been with you ●t all seasons Acts 20.27 ver 26. he saith wherefore I take you to record this day that I am pure from the blood of all men for I have rot shunned to declare unto you all the counsell of God take heed therefore unto your selves and to all the flock over which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers to feed the Church of God which he hath purchased with his own blood for I know this that after my departure shall grievous Wolves enter in among you not sparing the fl ck Also of your own selves shall men arise speaking perverse things to draw away Disciples after them therefore saith hee watch c. Likewise to the same end in his Epistle to Timothy he saith I exhort therefore that first of all supplications prayer interessions and giving of thanks be made for all men for Kings and all that are in Authority that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in ●ll godlinesse and honesty that is to the end that from the efflux of of Christ his spirit in the Oracles of life men may be drawn from the shade of death to life for that 's implyed because he saith this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour who will have all men to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth 1 Tim. 2.4 But what this truth is I need not now stand to treate of because it is but the same which God preached to Adam in the promised seed of the woman and to Cain interrogatively and the same which hee renew'd to Abraham in the predestination of Jewes and Gentiles and which was wrapt up under the glorious vaile of Moses and now preached with open face without the veile therefore Christ is a Priest for ever after the order of Milchisedeck in his own Ambassage rightly delivered till time shall be no more Wherefore rightly saith the Apostle Christ yesterday and to day and the same for ever Christ also manifests his impartiall proceedings unto the Spirits of men intending and extending eternall life to all and all alike in this ordinary call of the Gentiles as appears Luke the 8. for there he compares the Oracles of life for Doctrine of the Kingdome of grace to seed and all mens mindes to whom the Gospell comes to ground variously dispos'd and that from those various dispositions in the hearts of men the oracle of life ordinarily did variously take effect by the influence of his spirit and in the opening of this parable he referres those various dispositions of men to foure heads for saith hee the parable is this the seed is the word of God ver 12. from which seed of life the first sort of men received only a glance of the object of faith and no more for saith hee those by the high way side are those that heare then cometh the Divell and taketh the word out of their hearts least they should believe and be saved therefore these do not believe in any degree they have onely a glance and no more and the reason is because their mindes were as a common roade for Satan his allurements and persisting in their precedent Apostacie extinguishing all light of the enlivened principle of enmity to Satan wherefore saith Christ to such if the light that is in thee be darknesse how great is that darknesse Mat. 6.23 Againe the second sort of mens mindes under the seed of life receive a further disposition to the object of Faith for they believe to consolation verse 13. they on the rocke when they here receive the word with joy and these have no root which for a while believe and in time of temptation fall away and the
