that_o their_o call_n be_v not_o from_o god_n but_o from_o the_o devil_n for_o the_o pope_n can_v give_v a_o better_a authority_n or_o call_n to_o they_o than_o he_o himself_o have_v but_o his_o

therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o original_o come_v from_o the_o devil_n for_o their_o power_n and_o calling_n must_v of_o necessity_n proceed_v either_o from_o god_n or_o else_o from_o the_o devil_n but_o it_o proceed_v not_o from_o god_n as_o the_o scripture_n sufficient_o declare_v therefore_o there_o call_v and_o power_n proceed_v from_o the_o devil_n as_o both_o scripture_n and_o there_o

yet_o not_o withstand_v this_o prove_v not_o their_o calling_n to_o be_v ever_o the_o better_a as_o it_o be_v in_o civil_a government_n if_o the_o king_n who_o god_n have_v make_v a_o lawful_a

come_v with_o the_o same_o atthority_n for_o in_o such_o a_o case_n he_o that_o be_v a_o wicked_a man_n have_v his_o call_n from_o as_o good_a authority_n as_o the_o godly_a man_n have_v and_o therefore_o his_o call_n be_v as_o good_a as_o the_o other_o but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n if_o he_o that_o have_v no_o authority_n make_v officer_n though_o the_o man_n themselves_o be_v never_o so_o good_a and_o holy_a yet_o their_o holiness_n make_v their_o call_n never_o awhitt_v the_o true_a but_o still_o be_v a_o false_a a_o calling_n in_o regard_n his_o authority_n be_v not_o good_a nor_o lawful_a that_o make_v they_o and_o even_o so_o the_o minister_n be_v they_o never_o so_o holy_a man_n yet_o they_o have_v one_o and_o the_o same_o call_n with_o the_o wicked_a that_o be_v amongst_o they_o their_o holiness_n prove_v not_o their_o calling_n to_o be_v ever_o the_o true_a see_v their_o authority_n that_o make_v they_o minister_n be_v false_a and_o therefore_o they_o have_v more_o to_o answer_v for_o then_o any_o of_o the_o rest_n by_o how_o much_o the_o more_o god_n have_v bestow_v great_a joust_n upon_o they_o then_o upon_o other_o and_o yet_o they_o detain_v the_o

their_o sin_n if_o their_o calling_n be_v unlawful_a as_o i_o very_o believe_v they_o be_v in_o that_o they_o still_o hold_v they_o and_o do_v not_o willing_o lay_v they_o down_o and_o renounce_v they_o for_o they_o do_v but_o deceive_v the_o people_n and_o high_o dishonour_n god_n and_o sin_n against_o their_o own_o soul_n while_o they_o preach_v unto_o the_o people_n by_o virtue_n of_o a_o antichristian_a and_o unlawful_a call_v and_o the_o more_o godly_a and_o able_a the_o minister_n be_v that_o still_o preach_v by_o virtue_n of_o this_o call_n the_o more_o hurt_n he_o do_v for_o the_o
