out_o a_o constitutive_a head_n and_o a_o ecclesiastical_a constitutive_a head_n by_o christ_n institution_n and_o to_o say_v that_o all_o this_o be_v true_a without_o one_o be_v to_o i_o a_o

with_o a_o ecclesiastical_a constitutive_a regent_n part_n to_o it_o the_o bishop_n he_o say_v have_v equal_a power_n by_o christ_n appointment_n and_o rule_v not_o by_o superiority_n but_o by_o

two_o reason_n p._n 566_o and_o 567._o which_o need_v no_o other_o animadversion_n but_o this_o notice_n of_o they_o the_o great_a question_n only_o be_v whether_o this_o indeed_o be_v the_o will_n of_o christ_n that_o the_o catholic_n and_o so_o every_o national_a church_n as_o he_o state_v the_o matter_n shall_v be_v rule_v by_o these_o bishop_n as_o colleague_n that_o be_v by_o a_o

there_o be_v a_o political_a church_n say_v mr._n baxter_n there_o must_v be_v a_o constitutive_a head_n the_o doctor_n answer_v there_o may_v be_v the_o true_a notion_n of_o a_o church_n without_o one_o i_o reply_v this_o be_v a_o come_n off_o but_o the_o question_n indeed_o at_o the_o bottom_n be_v whether_o it_o be_v the_o true_a notion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n the_o doctor_n argue_v if_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o every_o church_n must_v have_v a_o constitutive_a regent_n part_n as_o essential_a to_o it_o than_o it_o unavoidable_o follow_v that_o there_o must_v be_v a_o catholic_n visible_a head_n to_o the_o church_n catholic_n visible_a this_o argument_n the_o dean_n defender_n think_v unanswerable_a but_o we_o reply_v the_o argument_n be_v such_o as_o need_v no_o

a_o visible_a head_n to_o the_o catholic_n church_n christ_n be_v that_o head_n we_o say_v and_o he_o be_v visible_a when_o he_o be_v on_o earth_n he_o give_v law_n for_o his_o church_n and_o

reason_n sense_n and_o scripture_n and_o not_o to_o be_v jeer_v off_o and_o therefore_o in_o the_o first_o place_n the_o doctor_n argument_n need_v no_o answer_n in_o the_o next_o place_n we_o say_v far_o it_o be_v easy_o answer_v for_o we_o deny_v the_o argument_n if_o it_o be_v necessary_a for_o a_o church_n to_o have_v a_o constitutive_a head_n it_o follow_v that_o the_o catholic_n church_n must_v have_v a_o constitutive_a one_o but_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o it_o must_v have_v a_o catholic_n visible_a head_n or_o that_o that_o constitutive_a head_n must_v be_v visible_a this_o in_o truth_n be_v introduce_v four_o term_n into_o the_o argument_n which_o we_o know_v be_v false_a argue_n when_o there_o be_v put_v more_o into_o the_o thing_n assert_v in_o the_o consequence_n than_o there_o be_v to_o prove_v it_o in_o the_o antecedent_n in_o a_o hypothetical_n syllogism_n it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o to_o argue_v with_o four_o term_n in_o a_o syllogism_n that_o be_v categorical_a but_o the_o doctor_n say_v he_o put_v more_o strength_n in_o it_o the_o question_n be_v about_o the_o catholic_n church_n whereof_o particular_a church_n be_v part_n and_o they_o be_v visible_a do_v

part_v of_o the_o body_n be_v visible_a therefore_o the_o head_n must_v be_v visible_a it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v argue_v thus_o particular_a church_n be_v on_o earth_n and_o if_o christ_n be_v head_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n whereof_o they_o be_v part_n he_o must_v not_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o when_o indeed_o this_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o argument_n and_o we_o know_v it_o to_o be_v false_a we_o do_v just_o deny_v the_o doctor_n argument_n suppose_v a_o man_n so_o high_a as_o that_o his_o head_n reach_v above_o the_o cloud_n will_v you_o argue_v that_o this_o person_n have_v no_o head_n because_o his_o head_n be_v not_o visible_a i_o deny_v the_o argument_n there_o be_v real_o nothing_o hard_o in_o the_o doctor_n argument_n but_o to_o understand_v why_o his_o defender_n who_o i_o value_v for_o his_o part_n shall_v come_v to_o think_v it_o unanswerable_a it_o may_v be_v the_o doctor_n confident_a word_n at_o first_o it_o undeniable_o follow_v draw_v on_o this_o apprehension_n and_o he_o have_v fetch_v the_o argument_n over_o so_o long_o till_o he_o have_v put_v enough_o in_o it_o to_o make_v himself_o believe_v it_o we_o be_v far_o say_v he_o from_o assert_v that_o the_o universal_a head_n must_v be_v visible_a if_o the_o subordinate_a be_v so_o he_o shall_v be_v as_o far_o from_o assert_v the_o head_n to_o be_v visible_a because_o particular_a church_n or_o the_o member_n be_v so_o but_o this_o we_o assert_v that_o if_o no_o church_n can_v be_v a_o true_a visible_a church_n without_o a_o subordinate_a visible_a head_n than_o the_o universal_a church_n can_v be_v a_o visible_a church_n without_o a_o subordinate_a catholic_n visible_a head_n p._n 574_o 575_o 576._o this_o he_o take_v to_o be_v the_o doctor_n argument_n and_o he_o will_v make_v the_o consequence_n hold_v before_o he_o have_v do_v with_o it_o but_o against_o who_o do_v the_o doctor_n and_o this_o man_n argue_v be_v it_o not_o against_o mr._n bexter_n
