who_o be_v foretell_v by_o the_o prophet_n that_o shall_v come_v for_o the_o redemption_n of_o his_o people_n 24.24_o for_o many_o shall_v come_v in_o my_o name_n say_v i_o be_o christ_n 24.5_o and_o shall_v deceive_v many_o not_o as_o though_o they_o pretend_v to_o be_v send_v by_o christ_n but_o that_o they_o will_v assume_v to_o themselves_o the_o dignity_n and_o authority_n of_o the_o true_a messiah_n and_o of_o this_o sort_n there_o be_v many_o that_o arise_v among_o the_o jew_n such_o as_o theudas_n jonathas_n barchochebas_n and_o many_o other_o but_o beside_o these_o there_o be_v false_a prophet_n some_o of_o which_o do_v open_o oppose_v christianity_n such_o as_o that_o bar-jesus_n mention_v in_o the_o act_n 13.6_o but_o there_o be_v other_o who_o pretend_v to_o own_o christianity_n and_o to_o prophesy_v in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n 7.21_o who_o s._n peter_n call_v false_a teacher_n and_o who_o s._n paul_n describe_v by_o the_o same_o character_n that_o our_o saviour_n here_o do_v 2.1_o but_o i_o know_v that_o after_o my_o depart_n shall_v grievous_a wolf_n enter_v in_o among_o you_o not_o spare_v the_o flock_n 30._o also_o of_o your_o own_o self_n shall_v man_n arise_v speak_v perverse_a thing_n to_o draw_v disciple_n after_o they_o who_o he_o elsewhere_o set_v forth_o by_o their_o sheep_n clothing_n when_o he_o say_v 16.18_o that_o by_o good_a word_n and_o fair_a speech_n they_o deceive_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o simple_a who_o he_o call_v false_a apostle_n 11.13_o deceitful_a worker_n transform_v themselves_o into_o the_o apostle_n of_o christ_n which_o carry_v so_o fair_a a_o show_n and_o appearance_n among_o the_o people_n that_o s._n paul_n be_v very_o full_a of_o jealousy_n and_o apprehension_n concern_v they_o lest_o they_o shall_v by_o degree_n draw_v away_o his_o disciple_n from_o the_o simplicity_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ._n for_o i_o be_o jealous_a over_o you_o say_v he_o with_o godly_a jealousy_n but_o i_o fear_v lest_o by_o any_o mean_n as_o the_o serpent_n beguile_v eve_n through_o his_o subtlety_n 3._o so_o your_o mind_n shall_v be_v corrupt_v from_o the_o simplicity_n that_o be_v in_o christ._n it_o may_v seem_v strange_a that_o after_o the_o apostle_n have_v with_o so_o much_o care_n and_o diligence_n plant_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n in_o several_a church_n they_o shall_v express_v so_o much_o fear_v as_o they_o do_v and_o especial_o s._n paul_n of_o their_o be_v so_o soon_o corrupt_v by_o these_o false_a teacher_n as_o he_o do_v not_o only_o of_o the_o corinthian_n but_o of_o the_o galatian_n too_o i_o marvel_v say_v he_o 1.6_o that_o you_o be_v so_o soon_o remove_v from_o he_o that_o call_v you_o into_o the_o grace_n of_o christ._n and_o o_o foolish_a galatian_n who_o have_v bewitch_v you_o 3.1_o that_o you_o shall_v not_o obey_v the_o truth_n and_o of_o the_o ephesian_n that_o we_o henceforth_o be_v no_o more_o child_n toss_v to_o and_o fro_o and_o carry_v about_o with_o every_o wind_n of_o doctrine_n 4.14_o by_o the_o sleight_n of_o man_n and_o cunning_a craftiness_n whereby_o they_o lie_v in_o wait_n to_o deceive_v and_o of_o the_o colossian_n 2.8_o beware_v lest_o any_o man_n spoil_v you_o through_o philosophy_n and_o vain_a deceit_n after_o the_o tradition_n of_o man_n after_o the_o rudiment_n of_o the_o world_n and_o not_o after_o christ._n 18._o and_o let_v no_o man_n beguile_v you_o of_o your_o reward_n in_o a_o voluntary_a humility_n and_o worship_v of_o angel_n 13.9_o and_o of_o the_o hebrew_n be_v not_o carry_v about_o with_o diverse_a and_o strange_a doctrine_n but_o we_o shall_v see_v this_o great_a caution_n deliver_v here_o first_o by_o our_o saviour_n and_o afterward_o by_o his_o apostle_n be_v no_o more_o than_o necessary_a if_o we_o consider_v under_o what_o pretence_n they_o come_v and_o what_o art_n and_o method_n these_o false_a teacher_n use_v to_o delude_v and_o seduce_v the_o people_n 1._o they_o pretend_v to_o the_o same_o infallible_a spirit_n which_o the_o apostle_n have_v and_o this_o may_v be_v the_o reason_n why_o our_o saviour_n do_v not_o here_o call_v they_o false_a teacher_n but_o false_a prophet_n for_o prophecy_n in_o its_o proper_a notion_n do_v not_o relate_v to_o future_a event_n but_o to_o divine_a inspiration_n so_o s._n chrysostom_n say_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d be_v the_o same_o with_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 36._o a_o prophet_n say_v he_o be_v the_o same_o with_o god_n interpreter_n so_o the_o word_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d be_v use_v in_o greek_a author_n phil._n as_o

those_o prophet_n which_o be_v oraculorum_fw-la interpretes_n and_o so_o the_o hebrew_n word_n be_v take_v in_o the_o same_o sense_n without_o any_o relation_n to_o foretell_v thing_n to_o come_v so_o moses_n be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o god_n to_o pharaoh_n 7.1_o and_o aaron_n thy_o brother_n shall_v be_v thy_o prophet_n i._n e._n thy_o interpreter_n abraham_n be_v call_v a_o prophet_n 20.7_o and_o the_o patriarch_n be_v all_o call_v prophet_n in_o regard_n that_o divine_a revelation_n be_v more_o common_a before_o the_o write_a law_n 105.15_o but_o the_o reason_n why_o the_o name_n of_o

of_o these_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o the_o great_a evidence_n of_o divine_a inspiration_n but_o in_o the_o new_a testament_n prophesy_v be_v often_o take_v for_o the_o gift_n of_o interpret_n the_o

among_o the_o spiritual_a gift_n 12.10_o and_o so_o these_o false_a prophet_n be_v not_o man_n who_o pretend_v to_o foretell_v future_a event_n but_o to_o the_o assistance_n of_o a_o infallible_a spirit_n in_o give_v the_o sense_n of_o scripture_n and_o by_o this_o pretence_n they_o transform_v themselves_o into_o the_o apostle_n of_o christ_n give_v out_o that_o they_o enjoy_v equal_a privilege_n with_o they_o whereby_o three_o thing_n may_v be_v observe_v which_o deserve_v our_o consideration_n 1._o that_o nothing_o be_v more_o easy_a than_o for_o false_a teacher_n to_o pretend_v to_o a_o infallible_a spirit_n such_o who_o our_o saviour_n and_o his_o apostle_n do_v warn_v man_n especial_o against_o pretend_v to_o be_v prophet_n and_o apostle_n and_o to_o know_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n better_a than_o they_o who_o true_o have_v the_o assistance_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n some_o think_v the_o bare_a pretence_n to_o infallibility_n ought_v in_o such_o a_o divide_a state_n of_o the_o christian_a world_n to_o be_v entertain_v as_o the_o best_a expedient_a to_o end_v controversy_n and_o that_o church_n which_o do_v alone_o challenge_v it_o aught_o on_o that_o account_n to_o be_v submit_v to_o as_o though_o the_o most_o confident_a pretender_n be_v to_o be_v soon_o believe_v so_o they_o will_v be_v do_v what_o we_o can_v by_o the_o weak_a sort_n of_o mankind_n but_o by_o none_o who_o have_v and_o use_v their_o judgement_n if_o bare_a pretence_n be_v sufficient_a simon_n magus_n do_v bid_v the_o fair_a to_o be_v head_n of_o the_o church_n 20._o for_o he_o pretend_v to_o be_v god_n vicar_n upon_o earth_n or_o the_o divine_a power_n send_v down_o from_o heaven_n which_o none_o of_o the_o apostle_n pretend_v to_o why_o then_o do_v not_o the_o christian_a church_n submit_v to_o montanus_n his_o paraclete_n when_o no_o other_o christian_n pretend_v to_o such_o a_o immediate_a inspiration_n as_o he_o do_v and_o certain_o prisca_n and_o maximilla_n be_v better_a oracle_n than_o a_o crucifix_n be_v to_o a_o late_a pope_n if_o there_o be_v any_o thing_n beyond_o a_o bare_a pretence_n to_o a_o infallible_a spirit_n we_o desire_v to_o see_v better_a argument_n for_o it_o than_o the_o false_a apostle_n can_v produce_v for_o they_o if_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o a_o bare_a pretence_n we_o must_v leave_v the_o pope_n and_o quaker_n to_o dispute_v it_o out_o 2._o that_o the_o pretence_n to_o divine_a inspiration_n be_v very_o dangerous_a to_o the_o christian_a church_n for_o we_o see_v what_o mischief_n it_o do_v in_o the_o apostolical_a time_n when_o there_o be_v a_o true_a infallible_a spirit_n in_o the_o apostle_n of_o christ_n to_o discover_v and_o confute_v it_o yet_o notwithstanding_o all_o the_o care_n and_o diligence_n of_o the_o apostle_n many_o be_v seduce_v by_o it_o for_o those_o who_o have_v the_o least_o ground_n do_v common_o use_v the_o great_a confidence_n and_o denounce_v hell_n
