    • 1670, The True Portraiture of the Church of Iesus-Christ:
      In no wise: For Iesus Christ remains alwayes first and supreme Pastor, and S. Peter and his Successors are only his Lievtenants and Vicars upon earth; and in this manner that doth rather raise Iesus Christs authority, than lessen it ; for even as it is an honor to a King to have under him Governors of Provinces, vice-Royes, Lievrenants and Generalls of Armies, to whom his Subjects pay obedience, because of the power given them by the King : so likewise it is an honor to Iesus Christ to have in the Kingdom of his Church Vicars and Lievtenents that my visibly govern his Church, and whom he hath commanded us to obey as his own self.
    • 1684, Thomas Sternhold, John Hopkins, The Whole Book of Psalms: Collected Into English Metre, page 2:
      Paul a prisoner of Iesus Christ, and Timothy our brother unto Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellow-labourer.
