The second reply of Thomas CartwrightThe second replie of Thomas Cartwright

And that this is not my judgement / it may appear by that I have alleged out off Calvin / and Musculus / in the former book / and Bez. in this. nether could Bull. be thought to have here ¹such meaning / as the D. giveth him: that the Apostles alone should set over the churches ministers / as appeareth by that I have alleged. So that onles he will make Bullinger contrary unto him self: thes words that Paul / and Peter called certain / can not be understanded off placing them over any congregation / no further then being chief in that action / they directed the judgement of the churches. there remaineth zuinglius / which I marvel the D. will charge me with / seeing he himself will not stand to him / in the place which he hath alleged. For that which he hath left out / off Mathias chosen by the whole church: is directly against that / which he hath in divers places before affirmed.

And that this is not my iudgement / yt maie appeare by that I haue alledged owt off Caluine / and Musculus / in the former booke / ād Bez. in this. nether could Bull. be thought to haue here ¹such meanīg / as the D. giueth him: that the Apostles alone should sett ouer the churches ministers / as appeareth by that I haue alledged. So that onles he will make Bullinger contrary vnto him selffe: thes wordes that Paule / and Peter called certeine / can not be vnderstanded off placinge them ouer any congregation / no further then being cheife in that action / they directed the iudgemēt of the churches. there remaineth zuinglius / which I meruaile the D. will charge me with / seinge he himselffe will not stande to him / in the place which he hath alledged. For that which he hath lefte owt / off Mathias chosen by the vvhole church: is directly againste that / which he hath in diuers places before affirmed.
