A03735	The sufficiencie of the spirits teaching, without humane-learning: or A treatise, tending to proue humane-learning to be no help to the spirituall understanding of the Word of God. Written (if it may be) for the silencing of such false and scandalous reports, as have been rumored about concerning this matter; and also for the affording of true information to all such as desire to know the truth.

here_o to_o be_v mind_v that_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v human-lerning_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

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

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 4.18_o 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 22._o man_n act._n 2_o 22._o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n a_o man_n approve_v of_o god_n and_o as_o such_o a_o man_n so_o administer_a i_n doe-still_a 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 50.4_o isay_n 50.4_o and_o so_o the_o tongue_n of_o the_o learned_a that_n be_v say_v to_o be_v give_v he_o be_v 61.1_o be_v isay_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 without_o human-learning_n ̶_n see_v further_o of_o this_o in_o the_o epistle_n note_v with_o this_o mark_n ‡_o ̶_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 human-learning_n so_o much_o as_o his_o own_o natural_a tongue_n by_o letter_n 4.7_o luk._n 4.7_o as_o in_o the_o synagogue_n he_o can_v take_v the_o book_n and_o read_v and_o this_o doubtless_o be_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 human-learning_n and_o so_o apply_v it_o to_o he_o as_o god_n whenas_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 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

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 gainsayer_n 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 intent_n that_o the_o mouth_n of_o gainsayer_n shall_v be_v stop_v by_o the_o knowledge_n of_o tongue_n and_o art_n but_o that_o way_n that_o himself_o direct_v 1_o titus_n 9_o which_o be_v by_o sound_a doctrine_n or_o by_o wholesome_a doctrine_n so_o then_o to_o go_v any_o other_o way_n then_o thus_o stop_v their_o mouth_n be_v both_o a_o unsound_a and_o a_o unwholesome_a course_n and_o it_o be_v far_o better_o in_o my_o judgement_n and_o that_o according_a to_o paul_n that_o their_o mouth_n shall_v be_v leave_v open_a then_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v stop_v after_o that_o manner_n and_o it_o have_v not_o profit_v they_o in_o the_o spiritual_a meaning_n of_o the_o word_n that_o have_v be_v exercise_v therein_o so_o now_o it_o be_v high_a time_n that_o we_o honour_v the_o teach_n of_o the_o spirit_n shall_v refuse_v to_o meddle_v with_o such_o as_o go_v another_o way_n to_o work_v then_o by_o it_o to_o declare_v god_n mind_n to_o we_o because_o it_o alone_o be_v sufficient_a to_o stop_v the_o mouth_n of_o all_o gainsayer_n 6.10_o gainsayer_n act._n 6.10_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o resist_v the_o spirit_n not_o the_o tongue_n and_o art_n by_o which_o he_o speak_v for_o he_o use_v none_o of_o they_o for_o the_o weapon_n of_o our_o warfare_n be_v not_o carnal_a and_o so_o be_v tongue_n and_o art_n and_o such_o like_a

a_o mere_a natural_a man_n may_v be_v a_o great_a worldly_a learned_a man_n as_o be_v the_o egyptian_n and_o babylonian_n and_o as_o be_v many_o of_o the_o romish_a priest_n and_o jesuit_n therefore_o for_o this_o cause_n that_o be_v not_o the_o learning_n here_o mean_v 4._o because_o such_o of_o god_n servant_n as_o have_v have_v such_o kind_n of_o learning_n when_o as_o they_o come_v to_o know_v christ_n they_o forsake_v it_o all_o reason_n 4_o reason_n as_o moses_n when_o he_o come_v to_o age_n though_o he_o be_v 7.22_o be_v act._n 7.22_o learn_v in_o all_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o

none_o be_v except_v therefore_o in_o asmuch_o as_o learning_n be_v one_o aswell_o as_o riches_n and_o honour_n he_o forsake_v that_o also_o as_o see_v by_o faith_n a_o better_a treasure_n in_o the_o worst_a condition_n among_o the_o people_n of_o god_n then_o in_o the_o best_a condition_n in_o the_o world_n suppose_v it_o be_v learning_n the_o like_a be_v to_o be_v see_v in_o paul_n who_o count_v all_o thing_n loss_n and_o dung_n that_o he_o may_v win_v christ_n even_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n itself_o which_o be_v far_o beyond_o all_o this_o and_o all_o this_o he_o do_v that_o he_o may_v know_v he_o wherein_o the_o apostle_n give_v i_o to_o understand_v that_o all_o such_o thing_n be_v but_o hindrance_n to_o keep_v he_o from_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n to_o salvation_n which_o be_v it_o that_o here_o i_o mind_n also_o therefore_o likewise_o this_o be_v not_o the_o learning_n here_o mean_v see_v it_o be_v reject_v of_o they_o therefore_o it_o be_v no_o help_n nor_o furtherance_n to_o they_o to_o know_v christ_n by_o but_o let_v and_o hindrance_n and_o so_o much_o appear_v by_o those_o convert_v in_o act_n 19.18_o 19_o who_o when_o they_o believe_v be_v say_v such_o of_o they_o as_o use_v curious_a art_n to_o burn_v their_o book_n declare_v that_o now_o they_o have_v meet_v with_o learning_n of_o far_o great_a worth_n than_o their_o curious_a art_n and_o therefore_o now_o they_o burn_v their_o book_n declare_v that_o now_o they_o have_v no_o more_o need_n of_o they_o and_o so_o i_o conclude_v that_o such_o as_o this_o be_v not_o the_o learning_n here_o mean_v be_v what_o learning_n it_o be_v i_o now_o come_v to_o manifest_v what_o learning_n it_o be_v the_o apostle_n here_o intend_v now_o the_o learning_n here_o intend_v by_o the_o apostle_n it_o be_v as_o i_o understand_v that_o sound_a knowledge_n and_o sure_a information_n that_o every_o christian_n have_v in_o jesus_n christ_n 2.7_o col._n 2.7_o whereby_o he_o be_v so_o

sure_a knowledge_n and_o understanding_n of_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n and_o so_o much_o here_o i_o think_v the_o apostle_n give_v we_o to_o understand_v 2.6_o 1_o pet._n 2.6_o how_o that_o the_o unlearned_a they_o be_v unstable_a then_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o learned_a they_o be_v stable_n believe_a and_o be_v lay_v on_o the_o true_a foundation_n they_o shall_v never_o be_v confound_v or_o ashamed_a now_o such_o as_o these_o be_v that_o be_v learn_v as_o the_o truth_n be_v in_o jesus_n these_o may_v well_o say_v to_o the_o great_a worldly_a learned_a one_o as_o philip_n say_v to_o the_o eunuch_n understand_v thou_o what_o thou_o read_v and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o such_o may_v teach_v they_o the_o understanding_n of_o the_o mystery_n say_v these_o be_v teach_v and_o instruct_v by_o the_o teach_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n agreeable_a to_o these_o scripture_n 2.10_o scripture_n 1_o cor._n 2.10_o that_o it_o have_v not_o enter_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n to_o conceive_v of_o that_o which_o god_n by_o his_o spirit_n which_o search_v the_o deep_a thing_n of_o god_n have_v reaveal_v unto_o we_o and_o this_o the_o apostle_n further_o explain_v that_o as_o no_o man_n know_v the_o thing_n of_o a_o man_n save_o the_o spirit_n of_o a_o man_n which_o be_v in_o he_o so_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n know_v no_o man_n no_o not_o a_o worldly_a learned_a man_n but_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o so_o he_o go_v on_o to_o difference_n the_o spirit_n of_o the_o world_n from_o god_n spirit_n and_o show_v that_o that_o be_v it_o whereby_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n be_v know_v and_o also_o manifest_v to_o other_o so_o that_o all_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n both_o for_o matter_n and_o manner_n flow_v from_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n spirit_n and_o not_o what_o man_n wisdom_n teach_v which_o be_v to_o compare_v spiritual_a thing_n and_o carnal_a thing_n together_o as_o tongue_n and_o ar●s_n and_o such_o like_a but_o god_n spirit_n teach_v we_o to_o compare_v spiritual_a thing_n with_o spiritual_a thing_n and_o so_o he_o go_v on_o and_o declare_v that_o only_a such_o that_o be_v teach_v by_o the_o spirit_n be_v capable_a of_o true_a discern_v of_o spiritual_a thing_n without_o be_v just_o condemn_v of_o any_o as_o true_o have_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n right_o and_o true_o know_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v of_o god_n and_o with_o this_o agree_v the_o witness_n of_o john_n 2.26.27_o john_n 1_o joh._n 2.26.27_o say_v these_o thing_n have_v i_o write_v unto_o you_o concern_v they_o that_o deceive_v you_o whereby_o it_o appear_v they_o have_v deceiver_n about_o they_o and_o those_o thing_n be_v write_v concern_v such_o but_o say_v the_o apostle_n in_o opposition_n to_o their_o deceive_n you_o have_v receive_v the_o anoint_v of_o he_o that_o dwell_v in_o you_o and_o this_o anoint_v that_o they_o have_v receive_v do_v he_o oppose_v to_o their_o deceive_a as_o be_v able_a thorough_o to_o teach_v they_o so_o as_o that_o they_o need_v not_o that_o any_o man_n teach_v they_o save_v as_o that_o anoint_v teach_v they_o then_o see_v that_o that_o anoint_v never_o do_v teach_v they_o such_o tongue_n or_o art_n as_o be_v humane_a therefore_o the_o saint_n by_o the_o apostle_n grant_v have_v not_o need_v of_o any_o such_o learning_n and_o yet_o this_o anoint_v teach_v all_o truth_n and_o obedience_n in_o it_o also_o and_o yet_o further_o our_o 13._o our_o joh._n 16.7_o with_o 13._o saviour_n himself_o conclude_v this_o point_n show_v that_o when_o he_o have_v send_v the_o comforter_n the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n to_o they_o that_o then_o he_o shall_v lead_v they_o into_o all_o truth_n whence_o i_o do_v conclude_v that_o for_o the_o disciple_n knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n there_o be_v no_o more_o necessary_a according_a to_o the_o mind_n of_o he_o that_o be_v truth_n but_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n to_o lead_v they_o into_o all_o truth_n without_o all_o error_n teach_v by_o no_o humane_a mean_n the_o reason_n why_o be_v render_v because_o it_o be_v sufficient_a and_o that_o be_v because_o it_o speak_v from_o the_o father_n agreeable_a to_o that_o of_o our_o saviour_n take_v from_o the_o prophet_n that_o 6.45_o that_o joh._n 6.45_o we_o shall_v be_v all_o teach_v of_o god_n and_o so_o indeed_o be_v teach_v of_o the_o spirit_n we_o be_v teach_v of_o the_o ftther_o and_o the_o son_n also_o which_o be_v all_o

that_o we_o need_v to_o know_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v of_o god_n by_o agreeable_a to_o his_o will_n so_o from_o these_o word_n thus_o interpret_v the_o conclusion_n come_v to_o this_o proposition_n that_o such_o as_o be_v teach_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n destitute_a of_o humane-learning_n be_v the_o learned_a one_o that_o true_o understand_v the_o scripture_n according_a to_o peter_n
