The rest of the Apostles, no doubt, honoured S. Peter, as the special member of Christs Body, with all reverence: But it appeareth not, that any of them ever took him, or used him, as their Head, or yielded him this Infinite, or Universal power. S. Paul compareth him self with him in Apostleship, and saithe, Mihi concreditum est Evangelium Praeputij, 1sicut Petro Circuncisionis▪ To me is committed ⟨p. 262⟩the Gospel among the Heathens, even as unto Peter among the Jews. And James, Peter, and John, which seemed to be the pillars, gave unto me, and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship. And afterward he saith, I withstood Peter even unto the face: for that he was worthy to be rebuked. And again unto the Corinthians, Arbitror me nihil inferiorem esse eximijs Apostolis. 2I take me self to be nothing inferior unto the chief Apostles. Hereby, it plainly appeareth, that Paul esteemed and took Peter, as his Fellow, and not as his Head.
The reast of the Apostles, no doubte, honoured S. Peter, as the special member of Christes Bodie, with al reuerence: But it appeareth not, that any of them euer tooke him, or vsed him, as their Heade, or yelded him this Infinite, or Uniuersal power. S. Paule compareth him selfe with him in Apostleship, and saithe, Mihi concreditum est Euangelium Praeputij, 1sicut Petro Circuncisionis▪ To mee is committed ⟨p. 262⟩the Gospel amonge the Heathens, euen as vnto Peter emonge the Iewes. And Iames, Peter, and Iohn, which seemed to be the pillers, gaue vnto me, and Barnabas the right handes of felowship. And afterwarde he saithe, I withstoode Peter euen vnto the face: for that he was woorthy to be rebuked. And againe vnto the Corinthians, Arbitror me nihil inferiorem esse eximijs Apostolis. 2I take me selfe to be nothinge inferiour vnto the chiefe Apostles. Hereby, it plainely appeareth, that Paule estéemed and tooke Peter, as his Felowe, and not as his Heade.
