By the way of Ordination.
THe Ministers of the Gospell thus separated and authorized to separate and authorize others; are herein directed to Gospel Ordination; as GODS institution for this end and purpose. Thus Paul; though immediately chosen by GOD, even to an A∣postolate, must be ordained, Act: 13.1.2: and the Seven, though ••mediately chosen by the multitude of disciples, but even a Deaconship, must be ordained, Act: 6.3, 6. Paul and Barnabas goe from place to place, to ordaine Presbyters in every City. Act: 14.23. Titus is left at Crete to ordaine Presbyters, Tit: 1.5: all which had been nedless, if qualifications, or popu∣lar election (without ordination) had been authori∣tative mission. Timothy received his cōmission by the laying on of the hands of the Presbytery, 1 Tim: 4.14: and though in the negative, he be forbad to lay hands sudenly on any man: yet thereby in the affirmative, he is cōmanded to lay on hands, i. e. or∣daine Ministers, 1 Tim: 5.22.
