Excerpt from The Church Polity of the Pilgrims: The Polity of the New Testament

It was addressed to those who were to be the teachers and preachers of his system and, had it been obeyed after the days of the apostles, the tendency would have been to purify and ennoble that class of his followers, by saving them from the degrading temptation to claim lordship and authority over their brethren.
