And in the eight of the Acts he is commanded by his fellows, To go with John to Samaria, he refused not so to do: and being the Apostles send him, they declare that they do not •ount him as their superior; and by his obedience he confesseth a fellowship with them, but no Emperor over them. But the Epistle to the Galatians ⟨p. 193⟩putteth us sufficiently out of all doubt, whereas S. Paul proveth himself to be equal with him, and how when Peter did not faithfully execute his office, he was by him rebuked, and not obedient to his correction, all doth evidently prove, that there was equality betwixt Paul & Peter, and also that he had no mor• power ever the residue of the Apostles then over him, the which Paul doth purposely entreat of, least any should prefer Peter or John before him: wherefore I cann•t acknowledge Peter head of the Apostles, nor the Pope over other Bishops, but I acknowledge Christ the only head of the Church; And I say with S. Gregory, that whosoever calleth himself an universal Bishop, he is the fore-rider of Antichrist. And whereas they allege the high priesthood of the old law, I say the right of that high priesthood is only transported unto Christ, for this Priest-hood doth not only consist in learning but in the propitiation and mercy of God, which Christ hath fulfilled by his death, & in the intercession by the which he doth now entreat for us unto his father.

And in the eight of the Acts he is commanded by his fellowes, To goe with Iohn to Samaria, he refused not so to doe: and being the Apostles send him, they declare that they doe not •ount him as their superiour; and by his obedience he confesseth a fellowship with them, but no Emperour ouer them. But the Epistle to the Galathians ⟨p. 193⟩putteth vs sufficiently out of all doubt, whereas S. Paul proueth himselfe to bee equall with him, and how when Peter did not faithfully execute his office, hee was by him rebuked, and not obedient to his correction, all doth euidently proue, that there was equality betwixt Paul & Peter, and also that he had no mor• power euer the residue of the Apostles then ouer him, the which Paul doth purposely intreat of, least any should prefer Peter or Iohn before him: wherefore I cannt acknowledge Peter head of the Apostles, nor the Pope ouer other Bishops, but I acknowledge Christ the onely head of the Church; And I say with S. Gregory, that whosoeuer calleth himselfe an vniuersall Bishop, he is the fore-rider of Antichrist. And whereas they alledge the high priesthood of the old law, I say the right of that high priesthood is onely transported vnto Christ, for this Priest-hood doth not onely consist in learning but in the propitiation and mercy of God, which Christ hath fulfilled by his death, & in the intercession by the which he doth now intreat for vs vnto his father.
