36.— Jesus answered; my kingdom is not of this world. Our two last discourses, my brethren, were occupied by that cardinal doctrine of the Church of Rome, which asserts the supremacy of the pope, as the vicegerent of Christ himself, the head of the whole Church, at Once the centre of unity and the fountain of authority; and makes this proposition an article of faith, necessary to every man's salvation. The first of these two lectures was devoted to the examination of the Scriptural evidence, on... which the advocates of Roman supremacy rely ; and the second, to the testimony of the earlier fathers. We proved, as I trust, conclusively, that the claims of this univer- sal monarchy over the Church universal, were contrary to the plain and repeated testimonies of the sacred volume; and further, that the texts to which its advocates were accustomed to appeal, were interpreted by the fathers, not according to the Roman doctrine, but according to our own. We stated that the first germ of the papacy was indeed to be found very early, in the history of the attempts made by the bishops of Rome to govern the other bishops with a high hand.
