1. eThe Apostle challengeth and condemneth the Corinthians, because they had not excommunicate him, before his writing unto them: which he would never have done, if that Church had not had power and authority of Excommunication.
1. eThe Apostle challengeth and condemneth the Corinthians, because they had not excommunicat him, before his writting unto them: which he would never have done, if that Church had not had power and auctority of Excommunication.
- e1. Cor. 5. •. 6. 9.
2. Howbeit the Apostle gave his judgement, that he should be excommunicate, because he ought not to have been tolerated in the Church, yet for all that, he should not have been indeed excommunicate and thrust out of the Church of Corinth, except the Ministers and Elders of that Church, had in name of the whole body of the same, judicially cast him forth and delivered him to Satan. Which plainly argueth, that he should not have been excommunicate by the Apostles authority alone, but by the authority of the Church of Corinth.
