Q. 26. But should they not do all that they do in Unity and Concord?
A. Yes, as far as they are capable: Not by feigning a new Universal Legislative Power in Man, or making an Universal Head under Christ, but by agreeing all in the Faith and Laws that Christ hath left us: And Synods may well be used to maintain such Union as far as capacity reacheth, and the case requireth: But an Universal Synod, and a partial or National, a Governing Synod, and a Synod for Concord of Governors, differ as much as doth a Monarch or Governing Senate over all the World, and a Diet, or an Assembly of Christian Princes met for mutual help and concord in the conjunction of their strength and Councils.
