as_o a_o fault_n upon_o the_o presbyterial_a way_n 2._o you_o have_v otherwise_o determine_v in_o the_o way_n suppose_v the_o whole_a presbytery_n be_v in_o a_o error_n or_o scandal_n as_o they_o may_v shall_v the_o faction_n now_o divest_v the_o brethren_n of_o their_o power_n and_o authority_n to_o censure_v and_o cast_v they_o out_o which_o you_o have_v full_o give_v they_o there_o and_o here_o do_v seem_v to_o take_v away_o 3._o you_o mitigate_v the_o business_n much_o when_o you_o say_v a_fw-la synod_n of_o church_n be_v the_o first_o subject_n of_o that_o power_n whereby_o error_n be_v convince_v etc._n etc._n and_o the_o way_n of_o ●ruth_n and_o peace_n declare_v and_o impose_v on_o the_o church_n for_o all_o this_o be_v only_o a_o doctrinal_a declaration_n and_o imposition_n not_o authoritative_o by_o way_n of_o jurisdiction_n the_o censure_n you_o reserve_v to_o the_o congregation_n where_o you_o have_v place_v it_o before_o but_o what_o if_o the_o synod_n of_o church_n err_v or_o disagree_v &_o there_o be_v a_o faction_n also_o among_o they_o you_o will_v know_v your_o own_o word_n a_o err_a or_o disagree_v church_n bind_v not_o so_o all_o will_v come_v to_o nothing_o the_o censure_n of_o the_o synod_n bind_v not_o for_o they_o can_v but_o declare_v what_o be_v truth_n the_o censure_n of_o the_o particular_a church_n bind_v not_o for_o they_o be_v in_o a_o faction_n so_o you_o give_v the_o brethren_n a_o power_n and_o present_o take_v it_o away_o again_o if_o then_o a_o considerable_a party_n fall_v into_o error_n or_o faction_n by_o variance_n they_o present_o lose_v like_o the_o bee_n her_o sting_n their_o power_n of_o bind_v and_o lose_v and_o if_o this_o be_v but_o once_o know_v as_o it_o can_v be_v hide_v how_o easy_a be_v it_o for_o any_o delinquent_n to_o make_v a_o party_n or_o faction_n and_o so_o escape_v all_o bind_a censure_n see_v neither_o the_o church_n err_v or_o at_o variance_n nor_o a_o synod_n have_v any_o bind_a power_n your_o second_o argument_n be_v from_o the_o pattern_n act_v 15.1_o etc._n etc._n when_o there_o grow_v error_n and_o faction_n in_o the_o church_n of_o antioch_n they_o determine_v not_o the_o case_n but_o refer_v it_o to_o the_o apostle_n and_o elder_n but_o first_o the_o church_n of_o jerusalem_n do_v only_o doctrinal_o declare_v the_o truth_n they_o do_v not_o censure_v the_o err_a brethren_n so_o you_o plead_v above_o but_o refer_v that_o to_o the_o church_n of_o antioch_n 2._o if_o declaration_n have_v be_v sufficient_a the_o church_n of_o antioch_n need_v not_o to_o have_v send_v so_o far_o as_o jerusalem_n paul_n and_o barnabas_n be_v able_a enough_o to_o declare_v the_o truth_n at_o home_n and_o so_o that_o particular_a church_n though_o err_a and_o at_o variance_n be_v the_o first_o subject_n of_o that_o power_n here_o give_v to_o a_o synod_n 3._o you_o mislay_v the_o comparison_n when_o you_o say_v as_o in_o the_o case_n of_o a_o offence_n of_o a_o faithful_a brother_n persist_v in_o the_o matter_n be_v at_o last_o judge_v in_o a_o church_n which_o be_v a_o congregation_n of_o the_o faithful_a so_o in_o the_o offence_n of_o a_o church_n the_o matter_n be_v at_o last_o judge_v in_o a_o congregation_n of_o church_n etc._n etc._n for_o the_o judgement_n be_v not_o of_o the_o same_o kind_n but_o you_o do_v mere_o aequivocate_v with_o we_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o church_n upon_o a_o brother_n be_v juridical_a even_o by_o way_n of_o censure_n of_o excommunication_n but_o the_o judgement_n of_o a_o synod_n be_v only_o doctrinal_a and_o declarative_a if_o you_o grant_v any_o more_o you_o and_o we_o be_v agree_v before_o i_o conclude_v this_o proposition_n i_o only_o animadvert_v these_o few_o thing_n 1._o that_o you_o grant_v the_o assembly_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o elder_n at_o jerusalem_n act_v 15.1_o to_o have_v be_v a_o formal_a synod_n wherein_o your_o disciple_n here_o do_v descent_n from_o you_o as_o appear_v in_o their_o epistle_n and_o call_v it_o only_o a_o consultation_n by_o way_n of_o arbitration_n to_o which_o arbitration_n it_o seem_v the_o church_n of_o antioch_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o stand_v for_o they_o do_v not_o for_o aught_o appear_v promise_v or_o bind_v themselves_o to_o stand_v to_o their_o arbitrement_n nor_o may_v they_o so_o bind_v themselves_o by_o your_o doctrine_n and_o they_o too_o for_o that_o be_v to_o give_v away_o their_o privilege_n purchase_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n 2._o you_o yield_v also_o 57_o the_o key_n p._n 57_o that_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o act_v herein_o as_o apostle_n and_o determine_v the_o matter_n by_o apostolical_a authority_n but_o as_o elder_n in_o a_o ordinary_a way_n as_o the_o whole_a proceed_n in_o the_o business_n prove_v as_o you_o well_o observe_v yet_o your_o scholar_n here_o submit_v not_o to_o your_o doctrine_n as_o they_o profess_v in_o their_o epistle_n though_o they_o neither_o show_v any_o reason_n for_o it_o nor_o confute_v you_o 3._o you_o call_v a_o synod_n a_o congregation_n of_o church_n for_o what_o be_v a_o synod_n but_o a_o church_n of_o church_n and_o yet_o deny_v that_o a_o presbytery_n of_o church_n be_v ever_o call_v a_o church_n 4._o you_o say_v the_o elder_n there_o at_o jerusalem_n be_v not_o a_o few_o the_o believer_n in_o jerusalem_n be_v many_o thousand_o therefore_o say_v we_o they_o be_v more_o than_o can_v meet_v together_o in_o one_o place_n and_o yet_o call_v but_o one_o church_n whence_o we_o may_v infer_v there_o be_v not_o a_o independent_a church_n of_o one_o but_o a_o presbyterial_a church_n of_o many_o congregation_n last_o you_o say_v this_o pattern_n plain_o show_v to_o who_o the_o key_n of_o authority_n be_v commit_v when_o there_o grow_v offence_n and_o difference_n in_o a_o church_n but_o the_o key_n of_o authority_n if_o you_o remember_v what_o you_o say_v above_o have_v this_o power_n in_o it_o as_o to_o administer_v the_o seal_n so_o to_o bind_v a_o obstinate_a offender_n under_o excommunication_n and_o to_o release_v and_o forgive_v he_o upon_o repentance_n grant_v but_o your_o synod_n of_o church_n such_o a_o key_n of_o authority_n to_o bind_v a_o offend_a party_n or_o church_n and_o to_o release_v they_o upon_o repentance_n and_o the_o matter_n be_v at_o a_o end_n but_o if_o you_o grant_v no_o more_o but_o a_o doctrinal_a declarative_a power_n you_o grant_v but_o what_o every_o pastor_n single_a have_v and_o whether_o this_o be_v the_o key_n of_o authority_n give_v by_o our_o saviour_n to_o the_o church_n let_v every_o indifferent_a reader_n judge_n and_o now_o you_o come_v to_o your_o corollary_n concern_v the_o independency_n of_o church_n to_o show_v how_o they_o be_v or_o be_v not_o independent_a wherein_o i_o purpose_v not_o to_o follow_v you_o and_o that_o for_o this_o reason_n because_o for_o the_o most_o part_n you_o do_v but_o repeat_v what_o you_o have_v say_v before_o you_o say_v yourself_o you_o take_v the_o first_o subject_n and_o the_o independent_a subject_n to_o be_v all_o one_o therefore_o say_v i_o if_o the_o church_n of_o a_o particular_a congregation_n be_v not_o the_o first_o subject_n of_o all_o church-power_n as_o be_v evince_v above_o neither_o be_v it_o the_o independent_a subject_n of_o that_o power_n i_o have_v only_o some_o thing_n to_o observe_v in_o your_o second_o corollary_n and_o then_o i_o shall_v conclude_v you_o say_v the_o establishment_n of_o pure_a religion_n and_o the_o reformation_n of_o corruption_n in_o religion_n do_v much_o concern_v the_o civil_a peace_n if_o religion_n be_v corrupt_v there_o will_v be_v war_n in_o the_o gate_n judges_z 5.8_o and_o no_o peace_n to_o he_o that_o come_v in_o or_o go_v out_o 2_o chron._n 15.3_o 5_o 6._o but_o where_o

to_o know_v 1._o by_o what_o authority_n our_o brethren_n here_o in_o old-england_n have_v not_o only_a christian_a magistrate_n covenant_v to_o reform_v but_o also_o call_v and_o command_v a_o assembly_n of_o divine_n to_o reform_v according_a to_o the_o word_n do_v take_v upon_o they_o to_o set_v up_o and_o establish_v a_o form_n of_o church-government_n of_o their_o own_o before_o they_o have_v demonstrate_v it_o to_o be_v the_o way_n of_o god_n to_o the_o great_a disturbance_n of_o the_o peace_n both_o of_o church_n and_o state_n 2._o i_o do_v demand_v also_o why_o many_o of_o your_o disciple_n here_o plead_v for_o a_o toleration_n of_o all_o religion_n which_o you_o will_v not_o tolerate_v in_o new-england_n which_o they_o call_v liberty_n of_o conscience_n and_o the_o prosecution_n of_o such_o disturber_n they_o call_v persecution_n when_o as_o they_o may_v hear_v you_o say_v it_o belong_v to_o the_o magistrate_n to_o punish_v the_o wilful_a opposer_n and_o
