A88083 Erastus Junior. Or, A fatal blovv to the clergies pretensions to divine right. In a solid demonstration, by principles, forms of ordination, canon-laws, acts and ordinances of Parliament, and other publique acts, instruments, records, and proceedings, owned by themselves, that no bishop, nor minister, (prelatical, or Presbyterian) nor presbytery (classical, or national) hath any right or authority to preach, ... in this nation, from Christ, but onely from the Parliament. In two parts: the one demonstrating it to an episcopal, the other to a Presbyterian minister. By Josiah Web, Gent. a serious detester of the dregs of the Antichristian hierarchy yet remaining among us. Lewgar, John, 1602-1665. 1660 (1660) Wing L1831; Thomason E1010_11; ESTC R202720 19,588 24

be_v make_v confirm_v and_o consecrate_a archbishop_n by_o authority_n of_o the_o queen_n and_o that_o she_o have_v her_o authority_n for_o it_o from_o the_o statute_n of_o 25._o h._n 8._o 20._o &_o

abundant_o demonstrate_v my_o thesis_n as_o to_o you_o that_o you_o have_v no_o authority_n to_o preach_v but_o what_o you_o have_v original_o from_o the_o parliament_n the_o second_o part._n demonstrate_v to_o a_o presbyterian_a minister_n that_o he_o have_v no_o authority_n to_o preach_v from_o christ_n but_o only_o from_o the_o parliament_n sir_n i_o shall_v suppose_v your_o case_n the_o best_a that_o can_v be_v suppose_v of_o any_o presbyterian_a minister_n in_o england_n viz._n that_o william_n juxon_n late_a bishop_n of_o london_n be_v a_o true_a presbyter_n together_o with_o all_o the_o presbyter_n then_o of_o london_n assist_v he_o ordain_v twelve_o presbyter_n who_o afterward_o he_o place_v as_o pastor_n or_o preach_v minister_n in_o so_o many_o parish_n church_n in_o london_n lie_v next_o to_o one_o another_o these_o twelve_o preach_v minister_n be_v the_o first_o classical_a presbytery_n that_o after_o the_o abolish_n of_o bishop_n be_v erect_v in_o the_o nation_n and_o the_o church_n of_o n._n within_o the_o precinct_n of_o that_o classis_fw-la fall_v void_a they_o ordain_v you_o a_o presbyter_n and_o afterward_o give_v you_o mission_n to_o that_o congregation_n of_o n._n that_o be_v place_v you_o to_o be_v the_o pastor_n or_o preach_v minister_n of_o it_o and_o i_o say_v that_o in_o this_o case_n you_o have_v no_o authority_n to_o preach_v to_o that_o congregation_n from_o christ_n but_o only_o from_o the_o parliament_n and_o i_o make_v it_o good_a by_o this_o argument_n you_o have_v no_o authority_n from_o christ_n to_o preach_v to_o that_o congregation_n but_o what_o you_o have_v either_o by_o your_o ordination_n or_o your_o mission_n but_o you_o have_v no_o authority_n to_o preach_v to_o that_o congregation_n by_o your_o ordination_n and_o none_o from_o he_o but_o from_o the_o parliament_n only_o by_o your_o mission_n therefore_o you_o have_v none_o from_o he_o but_o only_o from_o the_o parliament_n the_o major_n be_v suppose_v in_o the_o case_n nor_o be_v there_o any_o three_o ordinary_a way_n imaginable_a and_o you_o pretend_v not_o to_o extraordinary_a the_o first_o part_n of_o the_o minor_a that_o you_o have_v no_o authority_n to_o preach_v to_o that_o congregation_n by_o your_o ordination_n i_o prove_v from_o the_o form_n of_o it_o which_o suppose_v it_o the_o same_o as_o be_v prescribe_v in_o your_o directory_n be_v this_o the_o presbytery_n of_o that_o classis_fw-la lay_v their_o hand_n upon_o you_o accompany_v it_o with_o a_o short_a prayer_n or_o blessing_n by_o the_o preacher_n who_o carry_v

with_o his_o holy_a spirit_n who_o in_o his_o name_n here_o they_o lay_v their_o hand_n upon_o you_o we_o set_v apart_o to_o this_o holy_a service_n to_o fulfil_v the_o work_n of_o his_o ministry_n in_o all_o thing_n that_o he_o may_v save_v both_o himself_o and_o his_o people_n commit_v to_o his_o charge_n in_o which_o word_n add_v to_o the_o imposition_n of_o hand_n to_o interpret_v the_o meaning_n of_o it_o that_o it_o may_v not_o be_v a_o dumb_a ceremony_n you_o see_v there_o be_v not_o one_o syllable_n of_o authorise_v you_o to_o preach_v to_o that_o congregation_n of_o n._n but_o only_o that_o they_o who_o lay_v their_o hand_n on_o you_o set_v you_o apart_o to_o this_o great_a and_o holy_a work_n and_o office_n of_o the_o ministry_n that_o be_v that_o by_o in_o or_o with_o that_o imposition_n of_o hand_n there_o be_v give_v to_o you_o from_o and_o by_o christ_n himself_o immediate_o a_o divine_a power_n lawful_o to_o execute_v the_o office_n of_o preach_v and_o minister_a sacrament_n in_o christ_n name_n and_o with_o his_o authority_n to_o that_o congregation_n unto_o which_o you_o be_v then_o design_v or_o to_o any_o other_o in_o the_o nation_n or_o in_o the_o world_n whereunto_o you_o shall_v be_v due_o admit_v and_o that_o this_o power_n i_o speak_v of_o be_v all_o that_o these_o word_n or_o the_o imposition_n of_o band_n give_v you_o and_o not_o any_o authority_n as_o to_o that_o congregation_n of_o n._n be_v manifest_a because_o if_o they_o give_v you_o authority_n to_o that_o congregation_n it_o be_v either_o to_o that_o congregation_n alone_o or_o to_o more_o than_o that_o if_o to_o that_o alone_a you_o can_v not_o be_v admit_v as_o minister_v to_o any_o other_o congregation_n without_o be_v anew_o ordain_v which_o you_o count_v neither_o necessary_a nor_o lawful_a ordination_n lawful_a if_o a_o minister_n be_v design_v to_o a_o congregation_n who_o have_v be_v former_o ordain_v presbyter_n let_v he_o be_v admit_v after_o

name_v none_o nor_o mean_v no_o one_o more_o than_o another_o and_o authorize_v you_o as_o much_o to_o every_o one_o as_o to_o any_o one_o or_o else_o when_o you_o shall_v be_v admit_v to_o officiate_v in_o any_o congregation_n neither_o you_o nor_o the_o people_n can_v be_v certain_a whether_o that_o be_v one_o of_o the_o congregation_n or_o no_o to_o which_o your_o ordination_n authorize_v you_o which_o uncertainty_n will_v render_v it_o useless_a as_o to_o any_o one_o and_o if_o you_o say_v your_o ordination_n authorize_v you_o to_o every_o one_o you_o will_v be_v a_o pastor_n apostolic_a or_o such_o a_o one_o as_o the_o apostle_n be_v that_o be_v universal_a create_v by_o christ_n immediate_o and_o consequent_o supreme_a subject_a to_o no_o classis_fw-la synod_n parliament_n or_o other_o mortal_a superior_a which_o will_v utter_o overthrow_v all_o your_o form_n of_o church_n government_n and_o discipline_n for_o than_o you_o may_v preach_v and_o minister_v sacrament_n in_o any_o church_n where_o you_o shall_v please_v against_o the_o pastor_n will_v then_o all_o admission_n of_o presbyter_n to_o be_v preach_v minister_n to_o such_o or_o such_o a_o church_n will_v be_v vain_a absurd_a and_o arrogant_a act_n then_o no_o classis_fw-la synod_n or_o parliament_n can_v for_o any_o crime_n whatsoever_o convent_n or_o silence_v you_o and_o much_o less_o depose_v or_o eject_v you_o in_o fine_a then_o there_o will_v be_v no_o distinction_n betwixt_o pastor_n and_o flock_n of_o necessity_n therefore_o to_o avoid_v such_o horrid_a absurdity_n the_o first_o part_n of_o my_o minor_a must_v be_v grant_v i_o that_o you_o have_v no_o authority_n by_o your_o ordination_n to_o preach_v in_o that_o congregation_n the_o second_o part_n of_o the_o minor_a that_o you_o have_v no_o authority_n from_o christ_n but_o only_o from_o the_o parliament_n by_o your_o mission_n i_o thus_o make_v good_a they_o who_o give_v you_o your_o mission_n have_v no_o authority_n from_o christ_n but_o only_o from_o the_o parliament_n to_o give_v it_o you_o therefore_o you_o have_v no_o authority_n from_o christ_n but_o only_o from_o the_o parliament_n by_o your_o mission_n the_o consequence_n be_v evident_a in_o the_o term_n the_o antecedent_n be_v firm_a for_o two_o reason_n first_o because_o those_o presbyter_n who_o give_v you_o mission_n be_v no_o minister_n of_o those_o church_n by_o any_o divine_a right_n or_o authority_n from_o christ_n but_o only_o of_o the_o parliament_n because_o place_v in_o those_o church_n by_o the_o bishop_n of_o london_n as_o he_o be_v bishop_n of_o london_n which_o i_o be_o sure_a you_o will_v not_o can_v dare_v not_o say_v he_o be_v by_o authority_n from_o christ_n for_o then_o it_o have_v be_v a_o wicked_a and_o sacrilegious_a act_n in_o the_o parliament_n to_o deprive_v he_o of_o his_o bishopric_n and_o in_o you_o to_o advise_v and_o encourage_v they_o to_o it_o nor_o by_o any_o other_o authority_n but_o that_o of_o the_o parliament_n for_o than_o it_o have_v exceed_v the_o power_n of_o the_o parliament_n to_o deprive_v he_o of_o it_o nor_o can_v you_o say_v those_o minister_n be_v place_v in_o
