you_o think_v it_o be_v some_o epistle_n of_o saint_n paul_n which_o be_v lose_v some_o thing_n therefore_o not_o canonical_a may_v be_v read_v in_o the_o church_n n._n i_o think_v no_o canonical_a epistle_n can_v be_v lose_v for_o it_o be_v to_o derogate_v too_o much_o from_o god_n providence_n and_o the_o faithfulness_n of_o the_o church_n which_o shall_v be_v the_o keepresse_v of_o the_o volume_n of_o the_o covenant_n i_o rather_o suppose_v that_o it_o be_v some_o epistle_n write_v from_o the_o laodicean_n to_o paul_n to_o the_o demand_n whereof_o this_o epistle_n to_o the_o colossian_n do_v answer_v and_o therefore_o that_o it_o may_v more_o plain_o be_v understand_v it_o be_v meet_v that_o the_o other_o of_o the_o laodicean_n shall_v be_v read_v in_o the_o church_n also_o for_o such_o a_o like_a thing_n be_v probable_o collect_v to_o have_v be_v do_v by_o the_o 1._o the_o 1._o cor._n 7_o 1._o corinthian_n i._o to_o sift_v the_o ground_n of_o your_o assertion_n be_v now_o unseasonable_a but_o you_o have_v give_v in_o a_o fair_a evidence_n against_o your_o own_o mayor_n as_o shall_v hereafter_o appear_v my_o second_o reason_n be_v this_o nine_o chapter_n of_o

as_o go_v himself_o disallow_v the_o 7._o the_o job_n 42_o 7._o say_n of_o job_n three_o friend_n we_o may_v therefore_o in_o the_o church_n read_v some_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o of_o the_o canon_n n._n the_o general_a position_n of_o job_n friend_n be_v true_a howsoever_o they_o err_v in_o the_o application_n of_o they_o to_o job_n himself_o as_o if_o he_o have_v be_v a_o hypocrite_n i._o

it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o mayor_n proposition_n be_v false_a and_o not_o the_o assumption_n only_o as_o you_o pretend_v n._n i_o hope_v you_o will_v not_o exclude_v these_o nine_o chapter_n out_o of_o the_o canon_n consider_v they_o contain_v a_o historical_a though_o not_o a_o positive_a truth_n for_o it_o be_v true_a that_o these_o man_n so_o speak_v though_o they_o err_v in_o their_o

first_o lib._n 1._o chap._n 2._o conference_n beside_o this_o your_o mayor_n admit_v of_o a_o distinction_n which_o be_v this_o whatsoever_o be_v read_v in_o the_o church_n must_v either_o be_v the_o canon_n of_o faith_n or_o manner_n to_o this_o latter_a kind_n we_o may_v refer_v the_o apocryphal_a book_n n._n this_o be_v a_o rot_a device_n they_o can_v be_v the_o canon_n of_o manner_n see_v that_o in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o manner_n they_o may_v err_v i._o this_o answer_n shall_v be_v sift_v in_o your_o minor_n but_o now_o we_o tell_v you_o further_o that_o thing_n may_v be_v read_v in_o the_o church_n for_o the_o explanation_n of_o the_o canonical_a scripture_n for_o as_o you_o remember_v you_o say_v the_o epistle_n of_o the_o lacdiceans_n be_v read_v for_o the_o explanation_n of_o

reason_n whatsoever_o be_v read_v in_o the_o church_n ought_v either_o to_o be_v canonical_a scripture_n or_o agreeable_a thereunto_o but_o the_o book_n between_o malachi_n and_o matthew_n be_v

causa_fw-la because_o they_o contain_v error_n n._n second_o then_o they_o be_v term_v apocryphal_a because_o they_o be_v capable_a of_o error_n as_o be_v the_o writing_n of_o man_n i._o this_o be_v to_o make_v they_o apocryphal_a in_o possibility_n not_o in_o act_n now_o every_o possibility_n be_v reducible_a to_o some_o act_n tell_v then_o what_o be_v the_o actual_a cause_n why_o they_o be_v
