in_o my_o mind_n but_o i_o will_v not_o spend_v any_o time_n to_o approve_v or_o disapprove_v the_o one_o more_o than_o the_o other_o but_o speak_v something_o of_o both_o as_o in_o some_o such_o case_n be_v not_o unusual_a nor_o amiss_o when_o both_o may_v very_o well_o stand_v and_o it_o be_v difficult_a to_o say_v which_o be_v the_o true_a meaning_n of_o the_o place_n this_o or_o that_o for_o the_o first_o consist_v the_o duty_n of_o people_n towards_o their_o minister_n lay_v down_o in_o the_o five_o commandment_n stand_v in_o these_o four_o thing_n 1._o they_o must_v reverence_v they_o for_o the_o dignity_n highness_n and_o excellency_n of_o their_o call_v in_o which_o respect_n they_o be_v term_v angel_n star_n the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n 17._o god_n ambassador_n 2._o

those_o the_o second_o be_v the_o principal_a namely_o that_o people_n must_v submit_v themselves_o to_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n in_o the_o mouth_n of_o their_o minister_n word_n as_o we_o stand_v bind_v to_o preach_v so_o do_v you_o to_o hear_v and_o obey_v for_o bless_a be_v they_o that_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o keep_v it_o 28._o that_o be_v doer_n as_o well_o as_o hearer_n god_n have_v not_o appoint_v we_o to_o preach_v in_o vain_a but_o for_o the_o conversion_n of_o people_n the_o ministry_n be_v ordain_v to_o work_v faith_n to_o convert_v soul_n it_o be_v the_o people_n request_n with_o promise_n to_o hear_v and_o do_v 19_o god_n have_v yield_v and_o sanctify_v it_o to_o be_v the_o only_a ordinary_a mean_n not_o read_v 21._o not_o preach_v by_o a_o angel_n even_o the_o foolishness_n of_o preach_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o man_n to_o save_v they_o that_o believe_v if_o minister_n must_v be_v call_v to_o a_o account_n for_o preach_v shall_v not_o

we_o have_v do_v you_o no_o good_a nor_o have_v you_o hear_v well_o 17._o till_o you_o have_v repent_v and_o be_v convert_v till_o you_o have_v obey_v from_o the_o heart_n the_o form_n of_o doctrine_n

because_o the_o preach_n be_v not_o to_o they_o in_o word_n only_o but_o in_o power_n and_o they_o receive_v the_o word_n in_o much_o affliction_n and_o become_v follower_n of_o we_o etc._n etc._n

reprobation_n as_o in_o eli_n son_n 25._o if_o we_o be_v christ_n sheep_n we_o hear_v his_o voice_n in_o the_o ministry_n and_o follow_v he_o 27._o o_o what_o a_o excellent_a harmony_n will_v this_o make_v if_o minister_n preach_v faithful_o and_o the_o people_n become_v convert_v and_o then_o build_v up_o in_o all_o obedience_n thereby_o 1._o then_o this_o rebuke_v the_o woeful_a contempt_n of_o the_o world_n at_o most_o hand_n 1_o for_o how_o few_o yield_v obedience_n thereto_o look_v in_o all_o town_n how_o many_o ignorant_a person_n that_o have_v no_o knowledge_n neither_o will_v have_v
