what_o the_o cause_n be_v that_o some_o notwithstanding_o they_o hear_v the_o word_n yet_o remain_v unfruitful_a it_o be_v his_o heavenly_a grace_n and_o holy_a spirit_n that_o work_v sanctification_n in_o we_o thereby_o teach_v that_o howsoever_o paul_n plant_v and_o apollo_n water_n that_o it_o be_v god_n alone_o that_o give_v the_o increase_n 55.10_o unless_o that_o god_n soften_v the_o ground_n the_o rain_n return_v without_o fruit_n for_o our_o salvation_n though_o effectual_a on_o the_o other_o side_n to_o the_o harden_v of_o our_o heart_n so_o great_a a_o work_n be_v it_o to_o save_v a_o

in_o us._n here_o also_o be_v consolation_n for_o the_o faithful_a minister_n who_o consider_v the_o small_a success_n of_o his_o travel_n though_o he_o say_v with_o christ_n i_o have_v labour_v in_o

wherefore_o the_o zeal_n of_o the_o jew_n in_o this_o case_n profit_v not_o 10.2_o because_o it_o be_v without_o knowledge_n nor_o of_o the_o papist_n that_o submit_v not_o themselves_o whole_o to_o

eternal_o punish_v be_v say_v to_o be_v such_o as_o have_v not_o know_v god_n 17._o the_o thing_n that_o sanctify_v we_o the_o word_n of_o truth_n god_n word_n be_v truth_n here_o have_v i_o just_a occasion_n to_o complain_v of_o our_o adversary_n who_o have_v make_v it_o a_o ground_n of_o their_o religion_n to_o be_v ignorant_a for_o which_o they_o labour_v by_o all_o mean_n to_o keep_v away_o from_o man_n the_o key_n of_o knowledge_n 8._o whatsoever_o other_o ground_n they_o pretend_v that_o it_o be_v not_o good_a for_o the_o common_a people_n to_o hear_v or_o read_v the_o scripture_n 11.52_o and_o although_o they_o have_v translate_v the_o testament_n 15_o yet_o it_o appear_v that_o their_o meaning_n be_v to_o bury_v up_o the_o true_a knowledge_n of_o god_n therein_o contain_v in_o their_o four_o rule_n concern_v the_o forbid_v of_o read_v certain_a book_n they_o so_o terrific_a the_o multitude_n from_o meddle_v with_o they_o that_o they_o say_v who_o so_o read_v those_o book_n translate_v without_o permission_n prae_n they_o can_v have_v remission_n of_o their_o sin_n and_o in_o the_o six_o rule_n they_o teach_v that_o to_o read_v book_n of_o controversy_n it_o be_v not_o lawful_a no_o not_o for_o some_o jesuit_n so_o even_o for_o those_o that_o must_v be_v their_o guide_v it_o be_v not_o lawful_a to_o come_v to_o the_o truth_n any_o further_a than_o they_o give_v they_o leave_v no_o they_o let_v they_o not_o read_v even_o their_o own_o corrupt_a translation_n lest_o even_o in_o that_o puddle_n they_o shall_v meet_v with_o some_o clean_a water_n whereunto_o he_o call_v you_o by_o our_o gospel_n here_o he_o express_v the_o outward_a mean_n for_o the_o inward_a mean_n as_o have_v be_v say_v be_v god_n spirit_n take_v possession_n in_o our_o heart_n and_o work_a faith_n in_o we_o the_o ordinary_a mean_n to_o bring_v the_o which_o to_o pass_v be_v the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o be_v also_o set_v down_o in_o the_o former_a chapter_n because_o our_o testimony_n towards_o you_o be_v believe_v which_o he_o call_v our_o testimony_n because_o they_o deliver_v it_o the_o gospel_n therefore_o preach_v by_o the_o apostle_n and_o pastor_n be_v the_o ordinary_a mean_n to_o bring_v man_n to_o salvation_n the_o only_a rule_n to_o direct_v our_o knowledge_n and_o deed_n and_o when_o he_o call_v it_o we_o he_o show_v also_o how_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o word_n of_o god_n be_v thus_o fruitful_a in_o we_o namely_o when_o it_o be_v preach_v sincere_o by_o such_o as_o be_v thereunto_o lawful_o call_v for_o though_o it_o be_v profitable_a to_o read_v and_o meditate_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n &_o necessary_a for_o parent_n to_o instruct_v their_o child_n yet_o the_o word_n have_v then_o especial_o the_o promise_n of_o fruit_n and_o effect_n when_o it_o be_v to_o we_o deliver_v by_o those_o that_o be_v appoint_v steward_n over_o god_n household_n 41._o wherefore_o as_o before_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n the_o church_n of_o god_n be_v provide_v of_o prophet_n so_o christ_n have_v ordain_v that_o to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n there_o shall_v be_v pastor_n over_o his_o church_n to_o preach_v his_o word_n to_o his_o people_n 47._o and_o gather_v together_o his_o saint_n therefore_o this_o promise_n be_v not_o tie_v to_o the_o bare_a word_n but_o to_o the_o preach_v and_o hear_v thereof_o and_o those_o special_a prerogative_n and_o promise_n annex_v to_o the_o word_n chief_o take_v effect_n when_o the_o word_n be_v preach_v by_o they_o that_o be_v in_o that_o office_n so_o james_n mean_v 1.21_o when_o he_o will_v we_o to_o receive_v with_o meekness_n the_o word_n that_o be_v engraft_v etc._n etc._n where_o he_o compare_v the_o minister_n unto_o a_o husbandman_n by_o who_o the_o word_n preach_v be_v as_o it_o be_v engraft_v into_o us._n so_o also_o st_n paul_n 10.14_o when_o he_o say_v that_o say_v come_v by_o hear_v he_o show_v what_o hear_v nameof_o a_o preacher_n and_o how_o can_v they_o hear_v without_o a_o preacher_n this_o as_o it_o be_v to_o be_v consider_v and_o observe_v against_o the_o fanatical_a dream_n of_o the_o anabaptist_n 3._o which_o refuse_v the_o ordinary_a mean_n of_o engender_v faith_n and_o fly_v to_o their_o dream_n and_o revelation_n so_o also_o to_o the_o just_a reproof_n of_o our_o adversary_n who_o not_o require_v the_o preach_n of_o the_o word_n in_o the_o minister_n have_v also_o give_v the_o administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n unto_o they_o that_o be_v no_o minister_n 13._o for_o we_o be_v to_o think_v that_o as_o the_o ordinary_a promise_n appertain_v to_o the_o word_n lawful_o preach_v so_o also_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o sacrament_n belong_v to_o the_o due_a and_o lawful_a administration_n thereof_o 4._o moreover_o as_o hence_o this_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o no_o man_n take_v this_o honour_n upon_o he_o but_o he_o that_o be_v thereunto_o call_v as_o be_v aaron_n so_o see_v we_o know_v that_o this_o be_v the_o mean_v appoint_v by_o god_n 10.14_o to_o save_v such_o as_o he_o call_v let_v all_o such_o fear_n as_o clothe_v themselves_o with_o the_o skin_n of_o god_n people_n &_o drink_v
