Diotrephes catechised: or Sixteen important questions touching the ecclesiastical jurisdiction and censures (contradistinct
to civill) now eagerly pretended to and challenged by a divine right, by some over-rigid Presbyterians and Independents. :
Propounded to both these dissenting parties, for the further discovery of truth ; the preservation of the civill Christian
magistrates interest, and speedier comprimising [sic] of our present unhappy controversies touching church-government: on
which many now so over-dote, as to place the whole kingdome of Christ and substance of religion therein ; to repute all our
former reformation, a meere nothing ; the Church of Christ undone, and the exercise of their ministry, not onely fruitlesse
but unlawfull, so as they cannot with good conscience continue, but threaten to relinquish it, in case they cannot obtain
their demands of such an exorbitant power, by Divine justitution, which Christ and his Apostles never claimed, exercised,
nor themselves, nor predecessors, ever formerly enioyed, petitioned for or pretended to in any age, but this. by
