bTo that alleged that if all the church were in one Province, and one over them all in travailing with an archbishop he should bring forth a pope: he answereth / that can not be, the church being scattered throughout the world. Which I grant / having respect unto Gods election / and calling hidden from us: but that the church established in a visible and apparent from / may not (which God fo••id) be brought into one land / I hitherto hear no reason, he saith further / that the church after the ascension being in Jerusalem only, if it had had one bishop, should by my reason likewise have had a pope: which is untrue. For we join with the pastor / (and that in equal authority of government) the elders off the church: condemning all monarchical government in the pastor. The rest is canswered. The next / is danswered before. eAccused for charging the adm. to have used the papists reasons, he saith he may well do it: but reason he can show none. He denieth that he would prove one archbishop over a province by one king over a realm: yet beside he flatly faffirmeth that the form off government in the church must be according to that of the common wealth, driven to the wall / ⟨p. DCLXV⟩it is his common refuge / that by the same reason we east away Archbishops, we may likewise depose kings. His whole answer almost here / is cloured off divers divisions before: where he hath areply. And yet such is his forehead / that although he have here set before me a charger off Coleworts: yet for answering them with repetition off one line / in as few words as if I had only referred him to the former treatise / he shameth not to say / that I use nothing almost but repetitions. bTo that alleged out of Calvin / that the church doth clean one part unto an other under our Sau. Christs dominion, according to the order and form off policy, which he hath prescribed, and therefore not by a bishop of a diocese or archbishop, as those which he prescribed not: he answereth / that he speaketh off the spiritual government, and not off the external. whereby he maketh Calvin a trifling disputer. For the Papists which will have the pope a ministerial head under Christ / Confess that he alone governeth inwardly and secretly by his spirit: but that their pope is a means / whereby he doth it. Therefore Call.
bTo that alledged that if all the church vvere in one Prouince, and one ouer them all in trauailing vvith an archbishop he should bringe forthe a pope: he answereth / that can not be, the churche being scattered throwghout the worlde. Which I graunte / hauing respecte vnto Gods election / and calling hidden from vs: but that the churche established in a visible and apparant from / may not (which God fo••id) be browght into one land / I hetherto heare no reason, he sa•th further / that the church after the ascension being in Ierusalem onely, yf yt had had one bishop, should by my reason likewise haue had a pope: which is vntrew. For we ioine with the pastor / (and that in equal autoritie of gouernement) thelders off the church: condemning al monarchicall gouernement in the pastor. The rest is cāswered. The next / is danswered before. eAccused for charging the adm. to haue vsed the papistes reasons, he saith he may vvel doo yt: but reason he can shew none. He denieth that he woulde proue one archbishop ouer a prouince by one kinge ouer a realme: yet beside he flatly faffirmeth that the forme off gouernment in the church must be according to that of the cōmon wealthe, driuen to the wal / ⟨p. DCLXV⟩yt is his cōmon refuge / that by the same reason we easte away Archbishops, we may likewise depose kinges. His whole answer almost heer / is cloured off diuers diuisions before: where he hath areply. And yet suche is his forehead / that althowgh he haue heer set before me a charger off Colewories: yet for answering them with repetition off one line / in as few wordes as if I had onely referred him to the former treatise / he shameth not to say / that I vse nothing almost but repetitions. bTo that alledged out of Caluin / that the churche dothe cleane one part vnto an other vnder our Sau. Christes dominion, according to the order and forme off policīe, vvhich he hathe prescribed, and therfore not by a bishop of a diocese or archbishop, as those vvhich he praescribed not: he answereth / that he speaketh off the spirituall gouernement, and not off the externall. wherby he maketh Caluin a trifling disputer. For the Papistes which will haue the pope a ministeriall head vnder Christe / Confesse that he alone gouerneth inwardly and secretly by his spirit: but that their pope is a meanes / wherby he doth yt. Therfore Cal.
