my_o conversion_n of_o any_o man_n the_o first_o part_n of_o his_o reason_n be_v here_o confirm_v thus_o before_o my_o call_n and_o conversion_n i_o profess_v judaism_n and_o i_o live_v according_o persecute_v the_o church_n and_o suppress_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n and_o profit_v in_o my_o religion_n above_o many_o other_o therefore_o i_o be_v not_o then_o fit_a to_o hear_v and_o learn_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n of_o any_o man_n this_o argument_n he_o further_o confirm_v by_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o galatian_n thus_o that_o this_o be_v my_o conversation_n in_o judaism_n you_o be_v witness_n for_o you_o have_v heretofore_o hear_v as_o much_o in_o the_o example_n of_o paul_n two_o point_n be_v general_o to_o be_v consider_v the_o first_o that_o the_o distinction_n of_o man_n and_o man_n arise_v not_o of_o the_o will_n or_o natural_a disposition_n of_o man_n but_o of_o the_o grace_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n for_o paul_n a_o elect_a vessel_n for_o nature_n and_o disposition_n before_o his_o conversion_n be_v as_o wicked_a as_o any_o other_o and_o he_o say_v rom._n 9_o 11._o that_o the_o difference_n between_o man_n and_o man_n before_o god_n be_v not_o in_o he_o that_o will_v nor_o in_o he_o that_o run_v but_o in_o god_n that_o show_v mercy_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o pelagian_n error_n to_o think_v that_o man_n do_v that_o which_o they_o can_v do_v by_o nature_n occasion_n god_n to_o give_v they_o supernatural_a grace_n the_o second_o point_n be_v that_o paul_n here_o make_v a_o open_a and_o ingenious_a confession_n of_o his_o wicked_a life_n past_a and_o hence_o i_o gather_v that_o this_o apostle_n and_o consequent_o the_o rest_n write_v the_o scripture_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n by_o the_o instinct_n of_o god_n spirit_n and_o not_o by_o humane_a policy_n which_o no_o doubt_n will_v have_v move_v they_o to_o have_v cover_v and_o conceal_v their_o own_o fault_n and_o not_o to_o have_v blaze_v their_o own_o shame_n to_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o the_o book_n of_o scripture_n be_v not_o book_n of_o policy_n as_o atheist_n suppose_v to_o keep_v man_n in_o awe_n but_o they_o be_v the_o very_a word_n of_o god_n again_o the_o end_n of_o this_o plain_a confession_n be_v that_o paul_n may_v thereby_o confirm_v and_o justify_v his_o own_o call_n to_o the_o office_n of_o a_o apostle_n this_o serve_v to_o give_v a_o check_n to_o such_o person_n as_o use_v to_o sit_v and_o rehearse_v their_o wicked_a life_n past_a in_o boast_v and_o rejoice_v manner_n in_o paul_n example_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v his_o profession_n before_o his_o call_n and_o his_o conversation_n his_o profession_n be_v judaism_n and_o this_o hinder_v he_o from_o embrace_v the_o gospel_n it_o may_v here_o be_v demand_v what_o

mean_n of_o sure_a and_o certain_a interpretation_n tradition_n counsel_n father_n we_o have_v nothing_o but_o the_o private_a interpretation_n of_o luther_n melancthon_n calvin_n etc._n etc._n answ._n scripture_n be_v both_o the_o gloss_n and_o the_o text_n and_o the_o principal_a mean_n of_o the_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n be_v scripture_n itself_o and_o it_o be_v a_o mean_n when_o place_n of_o scripture_n be_v expound_v by_o the_o analogy_n of_o faith_n by_o the_o word_n scope_n and_o circumstance_n of_o the_o place_n and_o the_o interpretation_n which_o be_v suitable_a to_o all_o these_o be_v sure_a certain_a and_o public_a for_o it_o be_v the_o interpretation_n of_o god_n contrariwise_o the_o interpretation_n which_o be_v not_o agreeable_a to_o these_o though_o it_o be_v from_o church_n father_n and_o counsel_n be_v uncerten_a and_o it_o be_v private_a interpretation_n now_o this_o kind_n of_o interpretation_n we_o allow_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v false_a that_o we_o have_v only_o private_a interpretation_n and_o that_o all_o the_o interpretation_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v public_a second_o i_o answer_v that_o we_o be_v able_a to_o

the_o second_o motive_n we_o have_v no_o divine_a and_o infallible_a authority_n to_o rest_v on_o in_o matter_n of_o religion_n but_o they_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v ans._n in_o the_o

the_o authority_n of_o scripture_n as_o the_o papist_n teach_v but_o only_o a_o ministry_n which_o be_v to_o speak_v in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n according_a to_o the_o write_a word_n the_o three_o
