5. MaU. xviii. 17. 1 Cor. v. 12. 5. The state of the members of the militant visible church walking in order, was either before the law, eco- nomical, that is in families; or under the law, national; or since the coming of Christ, only congregational : (The term independent we approve not.) Therefore neither national, provincial nor classical. Gen. xviii. 19. Exod. xix. 6. 6. A Congregational church is by the institution of Christ a part of the militant visible church, consisting of a company o...f saints by calling, united into one body by a holy covenant, for the public worship of God, and the mutual edification one of another, in the fellowship of the Lord Jesus. 1 Cor. xiv. 23, o6, and i. 2, and xii. 27. Exod. xix. 5, 6. Deut. xxix. 1, and 9 to lo. Acts, ii. 42. 1 Cor. xiv. 2G. 52 CHAPTER III. Of the matter of the visible church, both in respect of quality and quantity. 1. The matter of a visible church are saints by calling. 1 Cor. i. 2. Eph. i. 1. 2. By saints, we understand, 1. Such as have not only attained the knowledge of the principles of religion, and are free from gross and open scandals, but also do to- gether with the profession of their faith and repentance, walk in blameless obedience to the word, so as that in charitable discretion they may be accounted saints by calling, though perhaps some or more of them be unsound, and hypocrites inwardly, because the members of such particular churches are commonly by the Holy Ghost called saints and faithful brethren in Christ ; and sundry churches have been reproved for receiving, and suffering such persons to continue in fellowship amongst them, as have been offensive and scandalous ; the name of God also by this means is blasphemed, and the holy things of God defiled and profaned, the hearts of the godly grieved, and the wicked themselves hardened, and helped forward to damnation.
