make_v against_o it_o as_o first_o object_n 1_o that_o of_o paul_n in_o 1_o tim._n 3.6_o that_o a_o bishop_n must_v be_v no_o young_a scholar_n lest_o he_o be_v puff_v up_o fall_v into_o the_o condemnation_n of_o the_o devil_n answ_n the_o scholarship_n paul_n mean_v here_o be_v the_o teach_n of_o the_o spirit_n whereby_o the_o man_n be_v make_v sound_n in_o the_o faith_n for_o that_o learning_n only_o will_v make_v man_n low_a in_o their_o own_o eye_n as_o be_v before_o declare_v and_o he_o that_o be_v unsound_a in_o the_o faith_n will_v ever_o be_v find_v the_o most_o lofty_a and_o puff_v up_o in_o his_o own_o conceit_n and_o so_o be_v reject_v of_o god_n as_o the_o devil_n be_v though_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n with_o god_n yet_o be_v puff_v up_o he_o be_v reject_v of_o god_n and_o so_o 2._o so_o 2_o pet._n 2._o cast_v down_o to_o hell_n to_o which_o example_n paul_n here_o allude_v as_o i_o conceive_v and_o that_o right_o for_o a_o bishop_n in_o the_o church_n be_v in_o respect_n of_o his_o spiritual_a state_n and_o place_n in_o favour_n and_o fellowship_n with_o god_n and_o that_o in_o heaven_n as_o the_o whole_a book_n of_o the_o revelation_n describe_v the_o church_n to_o be_v now_o such_o as_o by_o the_o church_n shall_v be_v choose_v to_o that_o state_n be_v young_a scholar_n that_o be_v not_o sound_o teach_v in_o the_o truth_n by_o the_o spirit_n he_o be_v in_o great_a danger_n the_o more_o other_o learning_n that_o he_o have_v so_o much_o the_o more_o to_o be_v puff_v up_o this_o i_o believe_v be_v the_o cause_n of_o diotrephes_n 9.10_o diotrephes_n 3_o joh._n 9.10_o pride_n he_o want_v this_o scholarship_n and_o that_o cause_v he_o to_o seek_v the_o pre-eminence_n and_o this_o whatsoever_o our_o great_a scholar_n think_v of_o themselves_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o high_a conceit_n that_o they_o have_v of_o themselves_o and_o their_o knowledge_n and_o understanding_n above_o other_o that_o want_v their_o learning_n even_o this_o because_o they_o be_v but_o young_a scholar_n if_o that_o in_o the_o school_n of_o christ_n and_o thence_o be_v it_o they_o be_v so_o puff_v up_o with_o the_o vainglory_n of_o their_o fleshly_a learning_n that_o they_o think_v that_o none_o that_o be_v not_o as_o themselves_o be_v fit_a to_o be_v their_o fellow_n and_o so_o know_v not_o how_o that_o they_o be_v wretched_a poor_a miserable_a blind_a and_o naked_a though_o they_o conceive_v themselves_o to_o be_v rich_a and_o have_v need_n of_o nothing_o as_o do_v the_o 3.17_o the_o rev._n 3.17_o laodicean_n and_o so_o indeed_o be_v fall_v into_o the_o condemnation_n of_o the_o devil_n as_o be_v reject_v of_o god_n for_o he_o resist_v the_o proud_a and_o such_o as_o be_v puff_v up_o and_o give_v grace_n to_o the_o 5.5_o the_o 1_o pet._n 5.5_o humble_a and_o such_o as_o be_v low_a in_o their_o own_o eye_n now_o whether_o these_o man_n human_o learn_v be_v they_o that_o be_v puff_v up_o or_o low_a in_o their_o own_o eye_n as_o mean_a as_o he_o that_o be_v unlearned_a i_o leave_v to_o all_o that_o have_v eye_n to_o see_v and_o look_v into_o it_o and_o so_o to_o judge_v whether_o they_o be_v not_o yet_o to_o learn_v paul_n scholarship_n further_o i_o say_v it_o be_v here_o to_o be_v mind_v that_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v humane_a learning_n that_o be_v here_o mean_v than_o paul_n shall_v teach_v timothy_n for_o to_o teach_v the_o church_n to_o choose_v such_o scholar_n as_o have_v more_o learning_n than_o have_v their_o master_n christ_n jesus_n now_o this_o some_o say_v be_v blasphemy_n and_o threaten_v i_o sore_o for_o it_o answ_n i_o answer_v they_o that_o consider_v christ_n jesus_n as_o god_n according_a to_o the_o divine_a nature_n so_o he_o be_v god_n over_o all_o and_o so_o give_v all_o thing_n act_n 17.25_o and_o so_o he_o be_v the_o 1.17_o the_o jam._n 1.17_o giver_n of_o every_o good_a gift_n and_o so_o humane_a learning_n and_o wisdom_n be_v 11.37_o be_v ro._n 11.37_o of_o he_o and_o so_o much_o but_o that_o man_n be_v malicious_o bend_v they_o may_v discern_v that_o i_o in_o this_o argument_n have_v not_o to_o deal_v with_o he_o as_o god_n but_o as_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n administer_a for_o the_o good_a of_o his_o body_n according_a to_o that_o luke_n 24.18_o have_v 24.18_o what_o learning_n christ_n have_v where_o he_o say_v the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n have_v anoint_v i_o that_o i_o shall_v minister_v etc._n etc._n and_o so_o in_o this_o argument_n he_o be_v by_o the_o apostle_n set_v forth_o as_o a_o man_n 2.22_o man_n act._n 2.22_o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n a_o man_n approve_v of_o god_n and_o such_o a_o man_n so_o administer_a i_o do_v still_o affirm_v and_o that_o with_o great_a confidence_n that_o he_o be_v unlearned_a in_o this_o consideration_n and_o without_o the_o learning_n that_o we_o speak_v of_o and_o so_o the_o tongue_n of_o the_o 5.1_o the_o isa_n 5.1_o learned_a that_o be_v say_v to_o be_v give_v he_o be_v 61.1_o be_v isa_n 61.1_o interpret_v by_o the_o same_o prophet_n to_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n for_o say_v he_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n have_v anoint_v i_o that_o i_o shall_v preach_v from_o whence_o be_v plain_a that_o christ_n jesus_n be_v learn_v of_o the_o father_n to_o preach_v by_o the_o spirit_n with_o see_v further_o of_o this_o in_o the_o epistle_n note_v with_o without_o humane_a learning_n and_o so_o much_o be_v plain_a to_o they_o that_o can_v believe_v the_o scripture_n from_o john_n 7.15_o where_o the_o jew_n admire_v say_v how_o come_v this_o man_n to_o know_v the_o scripture_n see_v that_o he_o be_v never_o learn_v from_o whence_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o as_o he_o be_v a_o man_n he_o be_v unlearned_a in_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o scripture_n though_o as_o god_n he_o know_v all_o thing_n and_o by_o a_o divine_a power_n not_o humane_a learning_n so_o much_o as_o his_o own_o natural_a tongue_n by_o letter_n as_o in_o the_o synagogue_n he_o can_v take_v the_o book_n and_o read_v 4.17_o luke_n 4.17_o and_o this_o doubtless_o be_v one_o cause_n why_o the_o jew_n be_v say_v to_o be_v astonish_v at_o the_o hear_n and_o see_v of_o he_o as_o appear_v matth._n 13.54_o etc._n etc._n luke_n 4.22_o so_o that_o from_o all_o this_o my_o affirmation_n remain_v true_a and_o good_a that_o if_o humane_a learning_n shall_v be_v it_o that_o be_v there_o mean_v by_o the_o apostle_n than_o he_o be_v to_o teach_v the_o servant_n to_o be_v above_o his_o master_n when_o as_o christ_n jesus_n himself_o 10.5_o himself_o mat._n 10.5_o say_v it_o be_v enough_o for_o the_o disciple_n to_o be_v as_o his_o lord_n and_o he_o be_v destitute_a of_o humane_a learning_n his_o disciple_n may_v well_o be_v without_o it_o also_o without_o any_o offence_n and_o yet_o preach_v the_o gospel_n too_o now_o if_o notwithstanding_o all_o this_o there_o be_v they_o that_o will_v take_v 6.11_o take_v act._n 6.11_o stephen_n accuser_n place_n and_o still_o accuse_v i_o of_o blasphemy_n as_o they_o do_v he_o etc._n etc._n though_o it_o may_v be_v they_o may_v say_v true_a word_n as_o that_o i_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v without_o humane_a learning_n and_o so_o apply_v it_o to_o he_o as_o god_n when_o as_o i_o speak_v of_o he_o as_o man_n they_o may_v there_o see_v themselves_o rank_v among_o the_o number_n of_o they_o that_o be_v call_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n false_a witness_n as_o walk_v in_o the_o step_n of_o those_o envious_a person_n blood_n person_n chief_a priest_n chief_a in_o spill_v innocent_a blood_n even_o such_o as_o be_v always_o the_o murderer_n and_o betrayer_n of_o christ_n jesus_n and_o his_o servant_n and_o they_o that_o be_v such_o may_v be_v liken_v to_o they_o that_o be_v full_a of_o envy_n 13.45_o envy_n act._n 13.45_o speak_v against_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v speak_v of_o paul_n contrary_v they_o and_o rail_v on_o they_o mark_v it_o they_o deny_v what_o he_o teach_v but_o disprove_v it_o not_o but_o speak_v against_o it_o and_o rail_v on_o the_o person_n and_o so_o leave_v not_o till_o they_o have_v be_v a_o mean_n to_o expel_v they_o out_o of_o their_o coast_n so_o be_v he_o and_o such_o like_a measure_n be_v still_o to_o be_v expect_v to_o befall_v such_o as_o tread_v in_o his_o step_n but_o it_o be_v to_o be_v mind_v that_o envious_a one_o be_v the_o mover_n of_o it_o and_o so_o leave_v of_o it_o i_o come_v to_o another_o exception_n which_o be_v object_n 2_o how_o such_o as_o be_v unlearned_a will_v be_v able_a to_o stop_v the_o mouth_n of_o gainsayers_a see_v the_o apostle_n require_v of_o a_o 1.11_o a_o tit._n 1.11_o bishop_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v able_a so_o to_o do_v answ_n i_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o apostle_n
