Quod si dixerimus te authore aequaliter, & indiscriminatim haec de Petro, & omnibus christianis intelligi, incidemus in illam Lutheranam sententiam. Omnes Christianos esse sacerdotes, & Ordinatum nullam potestatē accipere, quam antea non habebat, sed deputari tantum ad licite utendum potestate, prius habita: quae sententia jam olim est ab ecclesia damnata.

Ad haec aiebas Christum, quum minima vocaret praecepta, Scribarum & pharisaeorum allusisse impietate, qui ut sua eveherent, & amplificarent, minima dicebant divina. Multum hic discors es ab Origine, scripturarū interpret, saneque vigilantissimo, qui Homilia in Matthaeum quinta adeo non negat revera quaedam Dei praecepta dici, & esse minima, ut ex solutione, & obseruatione eorum minimum & magnum dici in regno coelorum nihil obscure praedicet. Simul pugnat quod tum Christus ipse seorsum à plebe & populo cum pauculis discipulis, suae celestis, tum solis doctrinae capacibus in monte versabatur, nihil interim cum Scribis, nihil cum Phariseis tractans, ut divina illa cō cione sua prorsus indignis.
