LVI.
Those who have been put in the number of Wanderers, by advice of the National Synod, cannot be struck out but by another National Synod.
There's nothing in this Establishment, but what is conformable to the method of Ancient Canons, which frequently remitted differences to be determin'd at Sy∣nods, to the end, that being decided this way, every body should acquiesce to their determinations, especially when it was transacted by the Synods of the whole Dio∣cess, which comprehended several Provinces, and to which do answer our National Synods; this appears by several Canons of the Councils of Nice, of Antioch, of the 1st of Constantinople, and others; the 22d of the Council of Mayence, alledged by us on the 54th Article, does expresly refer the question of wandring Church∣men, to the Censure of the Synod.
