1. This Office it self to which Christ was called, is threefold, of a Prophet, ofa Priest, & ofb a King: this number and order of Offices is shewed; first, by mens necessities grievously labouringc under ignorance, by reason whereof they stand in infinit necessity of the Prophetical office of Christ to relieve them. Secondly,d alienation frō God, wherein they stand in need of the Priestly Office to reconcile them: Thirdly, oure utter disability to return to him, by which they stand in need of the power of Christ in his Kingly Office to assist and govern them.f
