you_o conceive_v by_o the_o church_n b._n i_o be_o very_o inclinable_a to_o saint_n chrysostome_n interpretation_n who_o by_o the_o church_n understandand_v the_o elder_n and_o ruler_n of_o the_o

show_v they_o i_o will_v consider_v of_o it_o h._n no_o i_o do_v assure_v you_o it_o be_v never_o so_o use_v and_o therefore_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v yield_v to_o the_o word_n that_o we_o may_v go_v on_o with_o one_o consent_n in_o the_o work_n of_o god_n b._n god_n grant_v it_o if_o it_o be_v the_o work_n of_o god_n but_o you_o have_v not_o clear_v it_o yet_o i_o can_v yield_v to_o your_o

b._n as_o for_o human_a ordinance_n i_o can_v embrace_v they_o so_o far_o as_o they_o be_v not_o opposite_a to_o scripture_n but_o now_o we_o be_v upon_o the_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n i_o must_v profess_v i_o have_v be_v ever_o breed_v in_o the_o church_n that_o require_v all_o her_o minister_n to_o receive_v the_o scripture_n as_o interpret_v by_o the_o ancient_a father_n and_o to_o

the_o sentence_n of_o the_o congregation_n in_o your_o own_o way_n may_v not_o the_o wrong_a person_n appeal_v from_o you_o to_o yourselves_o in_o the_o presbyterian_a you_o know_v there_o lie_v a_o

that_o you_o do_v not_o understand_v the_o bishop_n be_v consider_v either_o sole_a or_o alone_a or_o as_o he_o sit_v in_o cathedra_fw-la crown_v with_o presbyter_n in_o this_o late_a sense_n i_o humble_o conceive_v the_o bishop_n be_v or_o aught_o to_o be_v governor_n of_o the_o congregation_n within_o his_o diocese_n and_o such_o bishop_n we_o can_v show_v innumerable_a in_o the_o ancient_a

to_o the_o foresay_a text_n can_v you_o show_v one_o place_n where_o church_n be_v take_v for_o the_o bishop_n and_o his_o presbyter_n b._n what_o if_o i_o can_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o ancient_a

another_o sense_n of_o the_o word_n in_o question_n which_o will_v come_v near_o to_o you_o but_o be_v not_o full_o you_o that_o be_v after_o the_o first_o admonition_n by_o one_o and_o the_o second_o before_o two_o or_o three_o it_o be_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n that_o a_o great_a number_n shall_v be_v make_v acquaint_v with_o the_o business_n tell_v it_o to_o the_o many_o for_o the_o shame_n of_o the_o offendor_n as_o the_o apostle_n somewhere_o speak_v the_o word_n may_v the_o more_o probable_o be_v take_v in_o this_o sense_n because_o as_o yet_o the_o disciple_n be_v not_o settle_v under_o a_o church-government_n and_o so_o there_o remain_v no_o more_o to_o be_v do_v after_o this_o shame_n of_o the_o offendor_n before_o a_o good_a number_n of_o fellow-christians_a i._n e._n

peace_n be_v unto_o you_o as_o my_o father_n have_v send_v i_o even_o so_o send_v i_o you_o and_o when_o he_o have_v say_v this_o he_o breathe_v on_o they_o and_o say_v unto_o they_o receive_v you_o
