During the Protestant Reformation, reformers asserted that the New Testament prescribed an ecclesiastical government different from the episcopal polity maintained by the Roman Catholic Church, and consequently different Protestant bodies organized into different types of polity.
Latin[la]
Per Reformationem ecclesiae, Protestantes arguebant Novum Testamentum structuras mandavisse quae a structura Ecclesiae Catholicae Romanae illius temporis, magnopere discrepabant, atque varia corpora Protestantia ergo variis politiae generibus uti solebant.
