     summary: If among his other high titles of propheticall , Apostolicall , and most admired of those times , he bee also stil'd Bishop of the Church of Smirna in a kind of speech , which the Rhetoricians call {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} , for his excellence sake , as being the most famous of all the Smyrnian Presbyters , it cannot bee prov'd neither from this nor that other place of Irenaeus , that hee was therefore in distinct , and monarchicall order above the other Presbyters , it is more probable , that if the whole Presbytery had beene as renowned as he , they would have term'd every one of them severally Bishop of Smyrna . Next to prove a succession of 27. Bishops from Timothy , he cites one Leontius Bishop of Magnesia , out of the 11. act of the Chalcedonian Councell : this is but an obscure , and single witnesse , and for his faithfull dealing who shall commend him to us , with this his Catalogue of Bishops ? what know wee further of him , but that he might be as factious , and false a Bishop , as Leontius of Antioch that was a hunderd yeares his predecessor ? for neither the praise of his wisedome , or his vertue hath left him memorable to posterity , but onely this doubtfull relation , which wee must take at his word ; and how shall this testimony receive credit from his word , whose very name had scarse been thought on , but for this bare Testimony ?

     summary: Sir , AMidst those deepe and retired thoughts , which with every man Christianly instructed , ought to be most frequent , of God , and of his miraculous ways , and works , amongst men , and of our Religion and Worship , to be perform'd to him ; after the story of our Saviour Christ , suffering to the lowest bent of weaknesse , in the Flesh , and presently triumphing to the highest pitch of glory , in the Spirit , which drew up his body also , till we in both be united to him in the Revelation of his Kingdome : I do not know of any thing more worthy to take up the whole passion of pitty , on the one side , and joy on the other , then to consider first , the foule and sudden corruption , and then after many a tedious age , the long-deferr'd , but much more wonderfull and happy re●…ormation of the Church in these latter dayes . But by what example can they shew that the form of Church Discipline must be minted , and modell'd out to secular pretences ? The ancient Republick of the Jews is evident to have run through all the changes of civil estate , if we survey the Story from the giving of the Law to the Herods , yet did one manner of Priestly government serve without inconvenience to all these temporal mutations : it serv'd the mild Aristocracy of elective Dukes , and heads of Tribes joyn'd with them ; the dictatorship of the Judges , the easie , or hard-handed Monarchy's , the domestick , or forrain tyrannies , Lastly the Roman Senat from without , the Jewish Senat at home with the Galilean Te●…rarch , yet the Levites had some right to deal in civil affairs : but seeing the Euangelical precept forbids Church-men to intermeddle with worldly imployments , what interweavings , or interworkings can knit the Minister , and the Magistrate in their several functions to the regard of any precise correspondency ? Seeing that the Churchmans office is only to teach men the Christian Faith , to exhort all , to incourage the good , to admonish the bad , privately the lesse offender , publickly the scandalous and stubborn ; to censure , and separate from the communion of Christs flock , the contagious , and incorrigible , to receive with joy , and fatherly compassion the penitent , all this must be don , and more then this is beyond any Church autority .

Buch. Hist . lib. 18. And four years after that , the Scots , in Justification of their Deposing Queen Mary , sent Ambassadors to Queen Elizabeth , and in a Written Declaration alledg'd , that they had used towards her more Lenity than she deserved ; that their Ancestors had heretofore punish'd their Kings by Death or Banishment ; that the Scots were a Free Nation , made King whom they Freely Chose , and with the same Freedom Unking'd him if they saw cause , by Right of ancient Laws and Ceremonies , yet remaining , and Old Customs yet among the High-landers , in choosing the Head of their Clans or Families ; all which , with many other Arguments , bore witness , that Regal Power was nothing else but a mutual Covenant , or Stipulation between King and People . But this I dare own as part of my Faith , that if such a one there be , by whose Commission Cities have been burnt , Royal Relations Murther'd , Multitudes of Innocent Subjects Butcher'd , Nobles taken off by Sham-Plots , Poyson , Perjuries or Massacres ; part of his Kingdom promised as their share , whom he had sollicited to help him to destroy his Protestant Subjects , and an Impostor put on the Nation to deprive the next Heir of the Crown ; I say if such a one there is , be he King , or Tyrant , or Emperor , the Sword of Justice is above him , in whose hand soever is found sufficient Power to avenge the Effusion of so much Innocent Blood , and those other unspeakable wicked Tyrannies .

     summary: The first Autority which our Adversaries bring , after , those Fabulous Apostolio Canons , which they dare not insist upon , is a Provincial Councel held a● Cu●●en where they voted Tithes to be Gods R●●t , in the year three hundred and fifty six ; at the same time perhaps when , the three Kings reigned there , and of like autority . Seeing th●● by all this which hath been shewn , that the Law of Tithes is partly Ceremonial , as the work was for the which they were given , partly judicial , not of common , but of particular right to the Tribe of Levi , nor to them alone , but to the Owner also and his Houshold , at the time of their Offering , and every third year ▪ to the Stranger , the Fatherless and the Widow , their appointed Sharers , and that they were a Tribe of Priests and Deacons improperly compared to the constitution of our Ministry , and the Tithes given by that People to those Deacons only : It follows that our Ministers at this day , being neither Priests nor Levites , are not filthy answering to either of them ; can have no just Title or pretence to Tithes , by any consequence drawn from the Law of Moses .

And to couple reason with example , if the Church in all ages , Primitive , Romish , or Protestant held it ever no less thir duty then the power of thir Keyes , though without express warrant of Scripture , to bring indifferently both King and Peasant under the utmost rigor of thir Canons and Censures Ecclesiastical , eev'n to the smiting him with a final excommunion , if he persist impenitent , what hinders but that the temporal Law both may and ought , though without a special Text or president , extend with like indifference the civil Sword , to the cutting off without exemption him that capitally offends .

     summary: And if the governors of this common-wealth since the rooting out of prelats have made least use of force in religion , and most have favord Christian liberty of any in this Iland before them since the first preaching of the gospel , for which we are not to forget our thanks to God , and their due praise , they may , I doubt not , in this treatise finde that which not only will confirm them to defend still the Christian liberty which we enjoy , but will incite them also to enlarge it , if in aught they yet straiten it . It will require no great labor of exposition to unfold what is here meant by matters of religion ; being as soon apprehended as defin'd , such things as belong chiefly to the knowledge and service of God : and are either above the reach and light of nature without revelation from above , and therfore liable to be variously understood by humane reason , or such things as are enjoind or forbidden by divine precept , which els by the light of reason would seem indifferent to be don or not don ; and so likewise must needs appeer to everie man as the precept is understood .
