In 1699 , the canon of Beveren renounced his Osnabrück cathedral praise and transferred it to Johann Philipp. At the suggestion of the cathedral chapter he was appointed cathedral sexton in 1722 and received a preamble in Münster the following year through papal approval . The Elector Clemens August appointed him after the death of Georg Wilhelm von Wolff-Guttenberg to Munster Chamber president. This office was endowed with a salary of 500 thalers. In 1726 he was ordained a subdeacon at his insistence in order to be able to vote for Jobst Matthias von Twickel in the election of the cathedral provost .
