ANSWER. [ A]

The true Church is vniuersall, according to the manner for∣merly declared. But the Argument taken out of Saint Marke 16.15. prooueth not, that it is euer actually vniuersall, in re∣spect of place, and multitude of professours. For as it follow∣eth not, that because Christ said he would be with Saint Paul when he preached at Corinth, (Act. 18.10.) therefore he will be euer at Corinth: So likewise it is inconsequent to inferre, Christ said he would be present in all places of the world with the Apostles, when they baptised and preached as he comman∣ded [ B] them: Ergo, he will alwayes be present in those places, al∣though their successours neglect his commandement. Is God euer in the dungeon in Egypt, because he was euer there, whilst Ioseph, a iust person, continued in prison. The promise of spi∣rituall presence, is annexed to the worke of Preaching and Bap∣tising, wheresoeuer it is performed, according to the Diuine Ordinance: but that which in some ages, hath beene done in many places, may at other times be performed in few.
