opinion_n o_o my_o belove_a brethren_n the_o gospel_n priest_n must_v well_o understand_v the_o nature_n of_o sin_n and_o corruption_n and_o temptation_n unto_o sin_n and_o the_o device_n of_o satan_n and_o mean_n and_o way_n how_o to_o escape_v they_o he_o be_v the_o spiritual_a man_n who_o judge_v all_o thing_n 1_o cor._n 2.15_o who_o know_v the_o mind_n of_o the_o lord_n rom._n 11.34_o who_o have_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n 1_o cor._n 2._o ult_n such_o a_o priest_n be_v able_a and_o fit_a to_o bind_v and_o loose_v as_o have_v receive_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o be_v endue_v with_o power_n from_o above_o otherwise_o its_o great_a boldness_n and_o presumption_n for_o any_o man_n to_o assume_v such_o power_n unto_o himself_o and_o what_o my_o brethren_n embolden_v you_o here_o unto_o because_o you_o say_v you_o be_v make_v priest_n and_o therefore_o you_o presume_v to_o take_v the_o apostle_n authority_n for_o your_o pattern_n to_o who_o the_o lord_n jesus_n say_v those_o sin_n you_o remit_v they_o be_v remit_v unto_o they_o and_o who_o sin_n you_o retain_v they_o be_v retain_v john_n 20.23_o o_o when_o shall_v we_o deal_v sincere_o and_o impartial_o with_o the_o holy_a scripture_n how_o often_o do_v man_n cite_v the_o divine_a testimony_n as_o the_o devil_n allege_v part_n of_o psalm_n 91.11_o 12._o to_o our_o saviour_n math._n 4.6_o where_o he_o leave_v out_o what_o be_v most_o necessary_a to_o be_v understand_v and_o in_o this_o case_n of_o great_a moment_n man_n do_v the_o very_a same_o for_o where_o our_o lord_n say_v who_o sin_n you_o remit_v they_o be_v remit_v etc._n etc._n he_o premise_v those_o word_n receive_v the_o holy_a chost_n and_o then_o immediate_o follow_v choose_v other_o who_o sin_n you_o remit_v they_o be_v remit_v unto_o they_o and_o who_o sin_n you_o retain_v they_o be_v retain_v they_o therefore_o who_o have_v receive_v the_o holy_a spirit_n of_o god_n be_v the_o fit_a man_n for_o the_o discharge_n of_o the_o gospel-priesthood_n wherefore_o my_o brethren_n boast_v not_o of_o your_o power_n but_o rather_o pray_v unto_o the_o lord_n for_o his_o holy_a spirit_n whereby_o you_o may_v be_v impower_v for_o our_o heavenly_a father_n will_v not_o fail_v to_o give_v his_o holy_a spirit_n unto_o those_o his_o child_n who_o ask_v he_o luke_n 11.13_o and_o be_v obedient_a
