That in the end hath also force / that whereas the Evangelists speaking off principality / and greatness which the Magistrate hath over his subjects / use with full consent the word Prince: when they come to describe the superiority / and greatness which 1our Savi. Christ will have in his ministers / they also with full consent abstain from it / being proper (as I have showed) to the Magistrate: and set in place thereof a leader, a word off less authority / 2and by the apostle ascribed unto ministers. Where if he had ⟨p. CCCCXXV⟩meant in that later part / to have described the duty off the civil magistrate: he would by all likelihood have kept the same word / saying / whosoever amongest you shall be Prince / shall be as your servant. Therefore it is evident / that our Saviour meant this sentence off the ministry off the word / and not of Magistrates.
That in the end hath also force / that wheras the Euangelistes speaking off principalitie / and greatnes which the Magistrate hath ouer his subiectes / vse with full consent the word Prince: when they come to describe the superioritie / and greatnes which 1our Saui. Christ will haue in his mynisters / they also with full consent absteine from it / being proper (as I haue shewed) to the Magistrate: and set in place theroff a leader, a word off lesse autoritie / 2and by thapostle ascribed vnto mynisters. Where yf he had ⟨p. CCCCXXV⟩ment in that later part / to haue described the duty off the cyuill magistrate: he would by all likelihood haue kept the same word / saying / whosoeuer amongest yow shalbe Prince / shall be as yowr seruant. Therfore yt is euident / that our Sauiour ment this sentence off the ministry off the word / and not of Magistrates.
