A29210	Bishop Bramhall's vindication of himself and the episcopal clergy, from the Presbyterian charge of popery, as it is managed by Mr. Baxter in his treatise of the Grotian religion together with a preface shewing what grounds there are of fears and jealousies of popery.

of_o rome_n about_o a_o primacy_n of_o order_n but_o about_o a_o supremacy_n of_o power_n i_o shall_v declare_v my_o sense_n in_o four_o conclusion_n first_o that_o st._n peter_n have_v a_o fix_a chair_n at_o antioch_n and_o after_o that_o at_o rome_n be_v a_o truth_n which_o no_o man_n who_o give_v any_o credit_n to_o the_o ancient_a father_n and_o council_n and_o historiographer_n of_o the_o church_n can_v either_o deny_v or_o well_o doubt_v of_o second_o that_o st._n peter_n have_v a_o primacy_n of_o order_n among_o the_o apostle_n be_v the_o unanimous_a voice_n of_o the_o primitive_a church_n not_o to_o be_v contradict_v by_o i_o which_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o those_o old_a episcopal_a divine_n who_o he_o pretend_v to_o honour_v so_o much_o do_v never_o oppose_v the_o learned_a bishop_n of_o winchester_n acknowledge_v as_o much_o not_o only_o in_o his_o own_o name_n but_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o church_n and_o king_n of_o england_n both_o king_n and_o church_n know_v it_o and_o approve_v it_o resp._n ad_fw-la apol._n bellar._n cap._n 1._o neither_o be_v it_o question_v among_o we_o whither_o st._n peter_n have_v a_o primacy_n but_o what_o that_o primacy_n be_v and_o and_o whether_o it_o be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o the_o pope_n do_v now_o challenge_v to_o himself_o and_o you_o challenge_v to_o the_o pope_n but_o the_o king_n do_v not_o deny_v peter_n to_o have_v be_v the_o prime_n and_o prince_n of_o the_o apostle_n he_o who_o shall_v trouble_v himself_o and_o other_o to_o oppugn_v such_o a_o receive_v innocent_a truth_n seem_v to_o i_o to_o have_v more_o leisure_n than_o judgement_n but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n it_o be_v as_o undoubted_o true_a and_o confess_v by_o the_o prime_a romanist_n themselves_o that_o st._n peter_n have_v no_o supremacy_n or_o superiority_n of_o power_n and_o single_a jurisdiction_n over_o any_o other_o apostle_n to_o this_o purpose_n i_o have_v lay_v down_o these_o four_o ground_n in_o my_o book_n of_o schism_n garded_n pag._n 27._o first_o that_o each_o apostle_n have_v the_o same_o power_n by_o virtue_n of_o christ_n commission_n second_o that_o st._n peter_n never_o exercise_v a_o single_a jurisdiction_n over_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n three_o that_o st._n peter_n have_v not_o his_o commission_n grant_v to_o he_o and_o his_o successor_n as_o any_o ordinary_a pastor_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n as_o delegate_n for_o term_n of_o life_n four_o that_o during_o the_o history_n of_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n the_o sovereignty_n of_o ecclesiastical_a jurisdiction_n rest_v not_o in_o any_o single_a apostle_n but_o in_o the_o apostolical_a college_n hitherto_o there_o be_v no_o cause_n of_o controversy_n between_o he_o and_o i_o or_o between_o any_o person_n of_o judgement_n and_o ingenuity_n my_o three_o assertion_n be_v that_o some_o father_n and_o schoolman_n who_o be_v no_o swear_a vassal_n to_o the_o roman_a bishop_n do_v affirm_v that_o this_o primacy_n of_o order_n be_v fix_v to_o the_o chair_n of_o st._n peter_n and_o his_o successor_n for_o ever_o as_o for_o instance_n gerson_n for_o a_o schoolman_n that_o learned_a chancellor_n of_o paris_n who_o side_v with_o the_o council_n against_o the_o pope_n and_o leave_v his_o enmity_n to_o the_o innovation_n of_o the_o court_n of_o rome_n as_o a_o hereditary_a legacy_n to_o the_o

my_o error_n if_o it_o be_v one_o who_o neither_o maintain_v nor_o grant_v such_o a_o primacy_n of_o order_n to_o be_v due_a to_o the_o chair_n of_o st._n peter_n and_o his_o successor_n by_o the_o

by_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o although_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n have_v such_o a_o primacy_n of_o order_n either_o by_o divine_a right_n or_o humane_a right_n yet_o it_o will_v not_o prejudice_v we_o nor_o advantage_v they_o at_o all_o neither_o in_o truth_n be_v it_o worth_a contend_v about_o or_o to_o be_v balance_v with_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o church_n and_o of_o the_o

straw_n my_o four_o and_o last_o conclusion_n be_v that_o suppose_v still_o but_o not_o grant_v that_o any_o such_o primacy_n of_o order_n or_o beginning_n of_o unity_n about_o which_o we_o have_v no_o controversy_n be_v due_a to_o the_o chair_n of_o st._n peter_n by_o divine_a right_n or_o much_o rather_o by_o humane_a right_n yet_o this_o suppose_a chair_n of_o st._n peter_n be_v not_o fix_v to_o rome_n as_o for_o divine_a right_n we_o have_v the_o plain_a confession_n of_o bellarmine_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v sound_a either_o in_o scripture_n or_o tradition_n that_o the_o apostolic_a see_v be_v so_o fix_v to_o rome_n that_o it_o can_v be_v remove_v bell._n de_fw-fr rom._n pont._n l._n 4._o c._n 4._o and_o for_o humane_a right_n there_o need_v no_o proof_n for_o whatsoever_o be_v constitute_v by_o humane_a right_n may_v be_v repeal_v by_o humane_a right_n this_o be_v my_o constant_a way_n everywhere_o i_o do_v altogether_o deny_v a_o supremacy_n of_o power_n and_o jurisdiction_n over_o we_o in_o the_o exterior_a court_n which_o only_o be_v in_o controversy_n between_o we_o and_o the_o pope_n and_o whatsoever_o jurisdiction_n he_o have_v elsewhere_o i_o regulate_v by_o the_o canon_n of_o the_o father_n i_o suppose_v a_o primacy_n of_o order_n but_o grant_v it_o not_o far_o than_o it_o have_v be_v grant_v by_o the_o canon_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n and_o as_o it_o be_v acquire_v by_o humane_a right_n so_o it_o may_v be_v take_v away_o by_o humane_a right_n to_o confound_v a_o primacy_n of_o order_n with_o a_o supremacy_n of_o power_n divine_a right_n with_o humane_a right_n a_o legislative_a power_n with_o a_o executive_a power_n be_v proper_a to_o blunderer_n so_o in_o his_o two_o first_o exception_n i_o suffer_v two_o palpable_a injury_n in_o the_o first_o exception_n he_o charge_v i_o upon_o suspicion_n direct_o contrary_a to_o my_o assertion_n in_o the_o second_o exception_n he_o confound_v a_o primacy_n and_o a_o

shall_v hold_v to_o himself_o and_o his_o church_n his_o last_o 400._o year_n determination_n and_o so_o continue_v as_o the_o bishop_n here_o conclude_v to_o be_v no_o apostolical_a orthodox_n catholic_n church_n nor_o to_o have_v true_a faith_n be_v a_o unlikely_a thing_n to_o stand_v with_o the_o unity_n and_o concord_n which_o he_o mention_v we_o shall_v cement_v but_o sorry_o with_o
