will_v conclude_v that_o if_o it_o please_v god_n to_o grant_v i_o my_o request_n at_o this_o point_n there_o will_v be_v joy_n not_o only_o in_o heaven_n at_o your_o return_n luke_n 15.7_o but_o

to_o who_o it_o be_v direct_v namely_o to_o the_o priest_n as_o you_o be_v please_v to_o call_v they_o and_o the_o people_n in_fw-la and_o about_o walton_n and_o liverpool_n and_o especial_o write_v for_o the_o sake_n of_o the_o simple_a as_o to_o the_o name_n priest_n i_o shall_v not_o be_v trouble_v at_o it_o at_o all_o be_v it_o not_o give_v by_o you_o to_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n as_o a_o brand_n of_o reproach_n for_o indeed_o i_o find_v it_o to_o be_v one_o of_o those_o honourable_a title_n that_o god_n have_v give_v to_o the_o dispenser_n of_o his_o word_n and_o ordinance_n in_o all_o age_n they_o be_v sometime_o call_v the_o lord_n priest_n exod._n 19.6_o 2_o chron._n 6.41_o sometime_o the_o lord_n pastor_n ier._n 3.15_o sometime_o the_o lord_n shepherd_n cant._n 1.8_o sometime_o the_o watchman_n of_o israel_n ezek._n 3.17_o isa._n 61.6_o and_o many_o other_o honourable_a title_n god_n be_v please_v to_o put_v upon_o his_o priest_n that_o he_o clothes_v with_o his_o

under_o the_o law_n but_o under_o grace_n and_o the_o gospel_n of_o grace_n to_o which_o i_o shall_v have_v occasion_n to_o speak_v more_o full_o when_o i_o come_v to_o the_o subject_a matter_n of_o your_o paper_n i_o shall_v only_o say_v in_o this_o section_n with_o a_o learned_a man_n who_o work_n i_o late_o see_v that_o the_o cause_n why_o many_o be_v so_o ignorant_a of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n be_v because_o they_o be_v no_o better_o acquaint_v with_o moses_n and_o aaron_n but_o if_o we_o look_v into_o the_o gospel_n as_o well_o as_o the_o law_n we_o shall_v find_v no_o less_o honourable_a title_n give_v to_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n than_o of_o old_a time_n be_v give_v to_o the_o dispenser_n of_o the_o law_n we_o find_v a_o catalogue_n of_o they_o in_o ephes._n 4.11_o they_o be_v there_o call_v apostle_n prophet_n evangelist_n pastor_n and_o teacher_n and_o though_o their_o name_n be_v here_o different_o express_v yet_o their_o honourable_a work_n be_v the_o same_o viz._n for_o the_o perfect_n of_o the_o saint_n for_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ministry_n for_o the_o edify_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o church_n and_o here_o be_v one_o thing_n observable_a viz._n that_o god_n be_v please_v both_o under_o the_o law_n and_o under_o the_o gospel_n to_o give_v one_o and_o the_o same_o name_n to_o the_o dispenser_n of_o his_o word_n and_o ordinance_n i_o mean_v pastor_n if_o we_o compare_v this_o ephes._n 4.11_o with_o jer._n 3.15_o and_o not_o only_o in_o point_n of_o name_n but_o office_n also_o as_o shall_v by_o the_o

3.1_o etc._n etc._n these_o thing_n consider_v may_v we_o not_o conclude_v with_o our_o saviour_n own_o word_n he_o that_o hear_v you_o hear_v i_o and_o he_o that_o despise_v you_o despise_v i_o and_o he_o that_o despise_v i_o despise_v he_o that_o send_v i_o luke_n 10.16_o from_o which_o sentence_n the_o lord_n keep_v i_o and_o the_o whole_a israel_n of_o god_n i_o have_v now_o for_o brevity_n sake_n do_v with_o one_o of_o the_o party_n to_o who_o you_o direct_v your_o paper_n viz._n the_o priest_n as_o you_o call_v they_o and_o for_o the_o people_n i_o confess_v i_o have_v not_o have_v opportunity_n to_o speak_v with_o many_o of_o they_o since_o i_o see_v your_o paper_n but_o as_o many_o of_o they_o as_o i_o have_v have_v any_o conference_n with_o about_o it_o i_o assure_v you_o the_o great_a number_n of_o they_o look_v upon_o your_o paper_n as_o such_o a_o empty_a inconsiderate_a piece_n that_o they_o conclude_v it_o be_v not_o worthy_a answer_v yet_o as_o you_o say_v it_o be_v write_v for_o the_o sake_n of_o the_o simple_a i_o assure_v you_o it_o be_v for_o their_o sake_n that_o be_v endue_v with_o the_o humble_a simplicity_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n that_o i_o undertake_v this_o present_a answer_n and_o now_o come_v we_o to_o the_o subject_a matter_n of_o your_o paper_n which_o centre_n itself_o in_o these_o two_o thing_n 1._o concerning_o the_o lawfulness_n or_o unlawfulness_n of_o give_v and_o receive_v of_o tithe_n and_o 2._o concerning_o perfect_a here_o in_o the_o body_n or_o whilst_o we_o continue_v in_o the_o body_n to_o the_o first_o of_o these_o viz._n concerning_o tithe_n i_o will_v glad_o know_v whether_o you_o will_v acknowledge_v the_o whole_a scripture_n to_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n or_o no_o i_o mean_v the_o whole_a bible_n the_o old_a testament_n and_o the_o new_a if_o you_o will_v acknowledge_v the_o whole_a i_o shall_v need_v say_v no_o more_o for_o the_o lawfulness_n of_o give_v and_o receive_v of_o tithe_n than_o you_o have_v say_v against_o the_o lawfulness_n thereof_o for_o you_o have_v cite_v several_a scripture_n that_o make_v full_a for_o they_o as_o that_o in_o deut._n 14.22_o 23._o compare_v with_o mal._n 3.8_o and_o 10._o in_o that_o of_o deuteronomy_n the_o lord_n take_v care_n and_o give_v charge_v not_o only_o concerning_o the_o bring_n in_o of_o tithe_n but_o for_o the_o true_a bring_n in_o of_o they_o as_o though_o the_o lord_n be_v resolve_v not_o to_o abate_v they_o any_o thing_n of_o that_o proportion_n that_o he_o have_v command_v not_o only_o in_o relation_n to_o the_o quantity_n but_o quality_n also_o so_o at_o the_o twenty_o three_o verse_n thou_o shall_v eat_v before_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n in_o the_o place_n that_o the_o lord_n shall_v choose_v to_o place_v his_o name_n there_o not_o only_o the_o tithe_n of_o thy_o corn_n but_o of_o thy_o wine_n and_o of_o thy_o oil_n and_o of_o the_o firstling_n of_o thy_o flock_n and_o of_o thy_o herd_n etc._n etc._n and_o the_o reason_n of_o all_o be_v add_v viz._n that_o thou_o may_v learn_v to_o fear_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n not_o only_o during_o this_o year_n and_o the_o next_o etc._n etc._n but_o always_o nay_o the_o lord_n take_v care_n as_o i_o may_v say_v concerning_o such_o excuse_n as_o some_o like_o yourselves_o may_v make_v against_o the_o punctuality_n of_o this_o performance_n in_o relation_n to_o the_o distance_n of_o the_o place_n that_o the_o lord_n shall_v choose_v from_o the_o place_n of_o some_o of_o the_o people_n residence_n some_o of_o the_o people_n may_v say_v i_o hope_v i_o may_v be_v excuse_v alas_o the_o way_n be_v too_o far_o and_o the_o burden_n that_o i_o be_o to_o bear_v be_v too_o heavy_a for_o i_o to_o carry_v so_o long_o a_o journey_n may_v not_o i_o be_v dispense_v with_o no_o say_v the_o lord_n if_o the_o burden_n be_v too_o heavy_a and_o the_o journey_n too_o long_o then_o shall_v thou_o in_o such_o a_o case_n turn_v thy_o tithe_n into_o money_n and_o shall_v bring_v thy_o due_a proportion_n in_o money_n in_o thy_o hand_n as_o if_o the_o lord_n have_v say_v i_o will_v not_o abate_v thou_o any_o thing_n neither_o will_v i_o be_v put_v off_o with_o any_o excuse_n or_o pretence_n that_o thou_o can_v make_v but_o that_o which_o i_o require_v thou_o shall_v true_o perform_v but_o you_o will_v say_v this_o be_v law_n why_o then_o let_v we_o take_v a_o step_n further_o and_o see_v what_o the_o prophet_n say_v to_o it_o and_o here_o again_o you_o have_v answer_v yourselves_o mat._n 3.8_o
