13 — 19. A. D. 52. St. Chrysostom assigns as the reason for this preeminence, that he was the Bi- shop of Jerusalem. Horn, xxxiii. In Act. Xv. 23. h Gal. Ii. 12. 122 SERMON I'll. " day following Paul went in with us unto " James, and all the elders were there'. " From these texts, referring to various pe- riods during the space of about twenty-two years, it is sufficiently evident that the Church of Jerusalem was under the imme- diate superintendence of St. James. If, then, an actual Apostle of... our blessed Lord evidently exercised his apostolical functions in a regular and resident Episco- pacy ; — if the circumstance of Jerusalem being the only Church where the Scrip- tures so clearly evince this regularity of system, is amply accounted for by Jerusa- lem being the original seat of the Christian religion, and for many years, probably, the only place where the numbers or the at- tainments of the disciples admitted of its complete adoption, what can be considered more strongly illustrative of the intention of the Apostles to pursue the same course in other churches, either by themselves, or their deputies, or their successors?
