The Priesthood of Aaron and the kingdome of Israel were distinct offices and incompetible the Priest vnder the law might not incroch vpon the royalties of the King nor the King execute the Priests office for when b 2. Chro. 26.16 Vzziah the King went into the Temple of the Lord to burne incense the Priests of the Lord withstood him and said vnto him It appertaineth not vnto thee Vzziah to burne incense vnto the Lord but to the Priests the sonnes of Aaron consecrated to this office Goe forth of the Sanctuarie for thou hast transgressed and Vzziah the King was a leper vnto the day of his death But Christ is both a Priest and a Prince the Scepter and the Miter meet together in him 3. Aaron Eleazar and c Leuit. 16. euery high Priest vnder the Law did enter into the holy place by the blood of goats and calues which hee did offer for himselfe and for the sinnes of the people But Christ our Priest entred into the most holy place by his owne blood and obtained eternall redemption for vs Heb. 9.12 He d Galath 1.4 gaue himselfe for our sinnes that he might deliuer vs from this present euill world It was impossible that the blood of buls and goats should take away sinnes Heb. 10.4 He therefore did e Ephes 5.2 offer his owne body redeeming his Church euen with his owne f 1.

Aaron and his successors were Priests of the Iewes and tied only to the Temple of l Deut. 12.11 Iohn 4.20 Hierusalem but Christ is for all persons and all places at all times a Priest for euer an vniuersall Bishop of our soules as he told the woman of m Iohn 4.21 Samaria the houre commeth and is now when ye shall neither in this mountaine nor at Hierusalem worship the Father but the true worshippers shall euery where worship him in spirit and truth 7. Aaron and other Priests vnder the Law were made without swearing of an oath but Christ is made by an oath by him that said vnto him the Lord hath sworne and will not repent thou art a Priest for euer after the order of Melchisedech Heb. 7.20.21 8. Aarons Priesthood was temporarie but the Priesthood of Christ is for euer Eleazar succeeded Aaron and Phineas Eleazar and so downward for among the n Heb. 7.23 Iewes many were made Priests because they could not endure by reason of death but Christ because hee endureth for euer hath an euerlasting Priesthood The Iewes haue now o Song of the three Children vers 38. neither Prince nor Prophet nor burnt offering nor sacrifice nor oblation nor incense for the Lord repented p Bellarmin de cullu sanct cap. 10. §. secundo respondet that is changed Aarons Priesthood but Christ as our text hath it is consecrated by God the Father a Priest for euer None can succeed him hee will not giue his glory to another Esay 42.8 and therefore the blasphemous opinion of the q See Tileman Heshusius in loc Papists is detestable who make the Pope successor vnto Peter and Peter the successour vnto Christ in his Priesthood So they prate print and paint in their r In fine Chron.

Polon Catalogues of the Romane Bishops I will not dispute this point after Paul Hebr. 7.25 concluding peremptorily that Christ and onely Christ is able perfectly to saue them that come vnto God by him seeing he liueth euer to lake intercession for them ſ Fox Martyr fol. 1027. as that learned man and martyr Iohn Lambert in his greatest agonie none but Christ none but Christ All the Peters and Peeres and Popes in the world which euer haue been are and shall be cannot sacrifice so much as may satisfie God for the sin of one poore soule Christ alone is our Priest for euer at whose right hand God the Father standeth assistant to t Genebrard in loc performe whatsoeuer he hath either said or sworne to him euen to the confusion of Kings and all other great enemies in the day of his wrath And surely this clause for euer as that holy Martyr of God u Fox Mart. pag. 1271. Iohn Bradford obserued euidently shewes that the Popish Masse is a most iniurious enemie to Christ in respect of his Priesthood and sacrifice The Priesthood of Christ is an euerlasting Priesthood and such a function as cannot goe to another but the Masse doth vtterly put him out of place as though hee were dead for euer and so God were a lyar who said hee should liue for euer Againe it is a pernitious enemie to his sacrifice for to re-iterate a thing once done for the full accomplishing of the end wherefore it was begun declareth imperfection of the same thing before but the Masse-priests re-iterate the sacrifice of Christ once done for the end wherefore it was begun that is for propitiation and remission à poena culpa ergo the Masse-priests make Christs oblation imperfect and deny that the vertue thereof endures for euer See Epistle Sun 5. in Lent I come now to the parallel of Dauid shewing the resemblance betweene Melchisedech and Christ This Melchisedech as Paul Hebr. 7. reports out of Moses Genes 14. was King of Salem and the Priest of the most high God So Christ is described in this present Psalme to be both a King and a Priest the King of Salem that is of x Galat. 4.26
