3. If you consider, the extent of his care and affection, For all the Saints of the World, those who are dispersed in all places, in all ages, they are all his Flock; and therefore 'tis the Royalty of his Administration, John 10.16. There shall be one Fold, and one Shepherd. As Christ is the only Catholic King, so he is the only Universal Bishop; For all other Shepherds have but particular Portions of his Flock committed to their charge, and they should be such portions as they have regard ⟨image 67⟩to, and are under their inspection, And at the last day, all his sheep shall congregate together, and stand at his right hand. All the Saints of God that are now scattered, as so many Stars in the Firmament, shall be united in one constellation, when they shall appear in glory before him.
