Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1852 edition. Excerpt: ... are hot. To come then to the first subject of Churchpower, or of the power of the keyes. The substance of the doctrine thereof, may be conceived and declared in a few Proposiiions. Church-power is either supream and soveraign, or subordinate and ministeriall. Touching the former, take this proposition. The Lord Jesus Christ, the head of his Church, is the //pwroc Aexiixun, the first proper subject of the soveraign power of the keyes.
