A96865 Church-members set in joynt. Or, A discovery of the unwarrantable and disorderly practice of private Christians, in usurping the peculiar office and work of Christs own pastours, namely publike preaching. In way of answer to a book printed under the name of Lieutenant Edmund Chillenden (but indeed none of his) entituled Preaching without ordination. Wherein all the arguments by him produced, are fully answered and disproved, the truth of the contrary evidenced, and the office forementioned, thereby returned into the hands of the right owners. / By Filodexter Transilvanus. Woodbridge, Benjamin, 1622-1684. 1648 (1648) Wing W3423; Thomason E422_3; ESTC R204785 29,729 41

see_v you_o be_v divide_v into_o sect_n according_a to_o the_o name_n and_o number_n of_o they_o that_o baptise_a you_o i_o be_o glad_a that_o i_o baptise_a not_o more_o of_o you_o than_o i_o do_v

that_o apollo_n baptise_a as_o well_o as_o paul_n or_o peter_n and_o therefore_o be_v a_o minister_n in_o office_n as_o well_o as_o they_o let_v we_o hear_v what_o chillenden_n have_v to_o the_o

persecution_n have_v scatter_v they_o but_o the_o present_a necessity_n be_v instead_o of_o a_o ordination_n at_o least_o it_o be_v a_o call_n of_o god_n for_o they_o to_o preach_v without_o ordination_n when_o by_o reason_n of_o disturbance_n ordination_n can_v not_o be_v have_v 2._o but_o the_o text_n say_v not_o that_o the_o church_n be_v scatter_v abroad_o but_o they_o all_o be_v
