have_v even_o give_v you_o his_o holy_a spirit_n which_o be_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o your_o read_n can_v but_o acknowledge_v the_o same_o spirit_n in_o i_o write_v therefore_o take_v heed_n how_o you_o despise_v those_o thing_n it_o may_v be_v observe_v that_o the_o more_o godly_a any_o be_v the_o more_o ready_o do_v his_o conscience_n reflect_v upon_o the_o

word_n of_o god_n all_o then_o due_o consider_v we_o may_v collect_v and_o conclude_v etc._n etc._n first_o if_o the_o church_n of_o god_n throughout_o all_o age_n have_v avouch_v the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n to_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n second_o if_o howsoever_o the_o scripture_n be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n simple_a and_o plain_a yet_o god_n spirit_n work_v by_o they_o they_o be_v mighty_a in_o operation_n three_o if_o the_o scripture_n contain_v many_o prophecy_n of_o great_a thing_n which_o according_o come_v to_o pass_v in_o due_a time_n four_o if_o god_n give_v testimony_n to_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n by_o a_o voice_n from_o heaven_n five_o if_o he_o confirm_v they_o by_o miracle_n six_o if_o he_o have_v wonderful_o preserve_v they_o unto_o this_o time_n seven_o if_o the_o old_a testament_n give_v testimony_n to_o the_o new_a and_o the_o new_a to_o the_o old_a as_o moses_n to_o christ_n and_o christ_n to_o moses_n eight_o if_o it_o follow_v that_o if_o there_o be_v a_o god_n to_o be_v worship_v viz._n the_o god_n of_o israel_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o word_n viz_o the_o scripture_n that_o according_a to_o they_o he_o may_v be_v worship_v nine_o if_o it_o be_v a_o good_a consequence_n a_o resurrection_n of_o the_o just_a and_o unjust_a be_v to_o be_v expect_v therefore_o there_o be_v a_o word_n of_o god_n viz._n the_o scripture_n that_o god_n may_v appear_v just_a when_o he_o judge_v in_o the_o last_o day_n and_o tenth_o if_o this_o be_v a_o sound_n enthymeme_n there_o be_v a_o conscience_n therefore_o the_o

of_o god_n viz._n the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n to_o be_v believe_v here_o perhaps_o some_o will_v expect_v a_o resolution_n of_o the_o question_n between_o the_o papist_n and_o we_o touch_v the_o apocryphal_a write_n viz._n esdras_n tobit_n etc._n etc._n whether_o they_o be_v part_n of_o the_o canonical_a scripture_n or_o no._n i_o tell_v you_o when_o i_o first_o enter_v upon_o this_o text_n that_o it_o offer_v just_a occasion_n of_o discuss_v many_o point_n of_o religion_n fit_a for_o the_o school_n than_o for_o this_o auditory_a yet_o because_o many_o take_v occasion_n to_o deem_v those_o write_n to_o be_v canonical_a because_o they_o be_v ordinary_o bind_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o they_o notwithstanding_o the_o wall_n of_o separation_n prudent_o and_o provident_o set_v by_o authority_n between_o the_o book_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o they_o i_o mean_v the_o title_n apocrypha_fw-la with_o a_o declaration_n of_o the_o meaning_n thereof_o i_o will_v show_v you_o my_o judgement_n in_o a_o few_o word_n i_o deem_v they_o or_o most_o of_o they_o write_n worthy_a of_o reverend_a estimation_n for_o their_o antiquity_n and_o many_o thing_n worthy_a diligent_a read_n but_o i_o deny_v they_o to_o be_v canonical_a that_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n or_o rule_n whereby_o our_o faith_n be_v to_o be_v square_v for_o we_o be_v to_o be_v build_v only_o upon_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o prophet_n christ_n himself_o be_v the_o corner_n stone_n 2.20_o stone_n ephes_n 2.20_o for_o reverence_v to_o those_o write_n and_o for_o my_o word_n sake_n i_o forbear_v to_o note_v obliquity_n in_o they_o such_o as_o be_v sufficient_a to_o demonstrate_v that_o they_o be_v not_o indict_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n i_o therefore_o desire_v you_o to_o consider_v but_o this_o one_o argument_n if_o they_o be_v part_n of_o canonical_a scripture_n they_o be_v part_n either_o of_o the_o old_a or_o of_o the_o new_a testament_n but_o they_o be_v part_n of_o neither_o therefore_o they_o be_v no_o part_n of_o the_o canonical_a scripture_n i_o never_o hear_v that_o any_o papist_n affirm_v they_o to_o be_v part_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o indeed_o their_o antiquity_n and_o content_n do_v manifest_a that_o they_o be_v write_v before_o any_o part_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v write_v to_o prove_v that_o they_o be_v not_o part_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n i_o will_v not_o urge_v a_o reason_n of_o hierom_n galeato_fw-la hierom_n in_o prologue_n galeato_fw-la viz_o they_o be_v not_o in_o the_o register_n of_o divine_a book_n which_o the_o jew_n preserve_v but_o desire_v this_o to_o be_v consider_v that_o they_o be_v in_o greek_a whereas_o all_o the_o book_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v in_o hebrew_n so_o without_o doubt_n have_v these_o be_v likewise_o have_v they_o be_v write_v by_o inspiration_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o the_o oracle_n of_o god_n the_o give_v of_o the_o law_n the_o service_n

may_v conclude_v that_o the_o apocryphal_a write_n be_v not_o part_n of_o the_o canonical_a scripture_n now_o be_o i_o to_o proceed_v on_o to_o use_v to_o be_v build_v upon_o this_o ground_n of_o religion_n there_o be_v a_o word_n of_o god_n viz_o the_o bible_n consist_v of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n to_o be_v believe_v if_o this_o be_v true_a indeed_o than_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v to_o be_v high_o esteem_v as_o the_o undoubted_a word_n of_o god_n for_o as_o when_o we_o know_v god_n if_o we_o do_v not_o glorify_v he_o as_o god_n 2d_o god_n rom._n 1_o 2d_o he_o will_v not_o be_v better_o please_v with_o we_o than_o he_o be_v with_o the_o gentile_n so_o if_o we_o acknowledge_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o doctrine_n and_o do_v not_o esteem_v the_o word_n as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n we_o shall_v be_v judge_v as_o despiser_n of_o it_o for_o not_o to_o regard_v as_o we_o shall_v be_v to_o despise_v as_o timothy_n have_v be_v despise_v 10.11_o despise_v 1_o
