The Prelatical way and Tenets of Master Coleman, and Master Hussey: Repugnant also in divers particulars to the Votes and Ordinances of Parliament.
The Prelaticall way and Tenents of Master Coleman, and Master Hussey: Repugnant also in divers particulars to the Votes and Ordinances of Parliament.
1▪ Master Coleman in his Re-examination, page 14 makes the Parliament to be Church-Governors, and Church-Officers to the whole Kingdom. It was an Argument used against the Prelates that Ecclesiastical and civill Government, Spiritual and Secular administrations are inconsistent in the same Persons, either of which requireth the whole man. It was another exception against the Prelate that he assumed the power of Church-Government, and Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction over the whole Diocese, which was much more then he could discharge. How will Master Coleman avoid the involving the Parliament into Prelatical guiltiness, by his Principles, which we avoid by ours?
