S. Paule did excōmunicate him, & if the church of Corinthe had kept him in amōgst them notwithstanding, yet had he bene excommunicated before God: and they should haue shewed thē selues, to haue bene a stubborne & rebellious people: In déede, if you* 1.1 take excōmunication for excluding from the externall societie of the church only, then the people if they be stubborne & wilful, may stoppe & hinder the executiō of that disci∣pline, but in so doing they forget their dutie. But if by excommunication you vnder∣stande bynding in heauen (as you ought to do) then had the incestuous persone bene truely excommunicated, though both the minister and the people had sayde the con∣trary. Wherefore it is true that the ryght of excommunicating remayned in Paule, though the people did giue their consent vnto it, by secluding hym from their com∣panye, and from the sacramentes.
