St. Paul informs us, Epes. 4. 11. 12. 13. saying, Christ gave some Apostles, and some Prophets, and some Evangelists, and some Pastors and Teachers, for the perfecting of the Saints, for the work of the Mini∣stery, for the edifying of the Body of Christ: Till we all come in the unity of the Faith and of the knowledg of the Son of God unto a perfect man, &c. So also we read in the Epistle to the Hebrews, No man taketh this honour to himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron. Heb. 5. 4.
