soul_n from_o the_o which_o sin_n chief_o do_v proceed_v for_o the_o body_n shall_v not_o sin_v at_o all_o if_o sin_n be_v not_o first_o in_o the_o soul_n m._n why_o say_v thou_o so_o p._n forsomuch_o

two_o point_n m._n which_o be_v the_o first_o peter_n it_o be_v that_o god_n have_v not_o speak_v in_o his_o church_n in_o the_o person_n of_o jesus_n christ_n only_o in_o the_o manner_n that_o he_o have_v heretofore_o speak_v by_o his_o prophet_n in_o sundry_a sort_n more_o covert_a and_o dark_a d_o but_o have_v speak_v by_o his_o own_o son_n plain_o and_o with_o a_o open_a face_n and_o have_v show_v unto_o we_o by_o he_o the_o doctrine_n of_o salvation_n so_o full_o and_o perfect_o that_o we_o may_v not_o attend_v any_o other_o perfection_n in_o this_o world_n as_o touch_v that_o point_n m._n thy_o meaning_n be_v then_o that_o see_v jesus_n christ_n be_v come_v upon_o earth_n he_o have_v bring_v the_o doctrine_n requisite_a in_o his_o church_n so_o perfect_v that_o no_o man_n may_v add_v any_o thing_n more_o thereunto_o and_o that_o none_o ought_v from_o that_o time_n forth_o to_o look_v for_o any_o more_o ample_a and_o perfect_v revelation_n and_o manifestation_n of_o the_o will_n of_o god._n p._n saint_n john_n do_v witness_v it_o unto_o we_o when_o he_o say_v that_o no_o man_n ever_o see_v god_n but_o the_o son_n which_o be_v in_o the_o bosom_n of_o the_o father_n have_v declare_v he_o unto_o we_o for_o this_o cause_n jesus_n christ_n himself_o have_v say_v that_o he_o have_v declare_v to_o his_o disciple_n c._n all_o that_o which_o he_o have_v hear_v of_o his_o father_n of_o the_o power_n and_o efficacy_n of_o the_o ministry_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o of_o that_o which_o he_o give_v to_o the_o ministry_n of_o other_o m._n which_o be_v the_o other_o point_n that_o thou_o have_v yet_o to_o expound_v concern_v the_o difference_n whereof_o thou_o have_v make_v mention_n touch_v the_o office_n of_o prophet_n of_o jesus_n christ_n p._n it_o be_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o a_o prophet_n have_v none_o other_o power_n but_o to_o show_v forth_o the_o word_n of_o god_n by_o mouth_n as_o the_o other_o minister_n of_o the_o same_o do_v a_o but_o beside_o that_o he_o have_v the_o power_n to_o imprint_v the_o same_o in_o their_o heart_n by_o the_o virtue_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o to_o give_v it_o virtue_n and_o efficacy_n in_o they_o m._n thy_o meaning_n be_v then_o that_o the_o other_o prophet_n and_o minister_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n have_v not_o that_o power_n p._n not_o of_o themselves_o but_o so_o far_o forth_o as_o jesus_n christ_n do_v work_v in_o they_o and_o in_o their_o ministry_n by_o the_o divine_a power_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o therefore_o when_o he_o command_v his_o apostle_n to_o go_v and_o preach_v the_o gospel_n and_o do_v give_v unto_o they_o power_n to_o pardon_v &_o retain_v sin_n by_o he_o he_o forthwith_o give_v unto_o they_o the_o holy_a ghost_n breathe_v upon_o they_o in_o token_n of_o the_o same_o b._n and_o afterward_o do_v send_v he_o to_o they_o upon_o the_o day_n of_o pentecost_n after_o that_o he_o be_v ascend_v into_o heaven_n m._n i_o think_v that_o that_o which_o thou_o say_v be_v the_o cause_n why_o saint_n paul_n say_v he_o that_o
plant_v and_o he_o that_o water_v be_v nothing_o but_o god_n which_o give_v the_o increase_n p._n it_o be_v true_a and_o for_o that_o cause_n in_o somuch_o as_o he_o be_v man_n he_o have_v plant_v and_o water_v by_o his_o outward_a ministry_n but_o in_o that_o that_o he_o be_v very_a god_n he_o have_v also_o power_n to_o give_v the_o increase_n and_o do_v daily_o give_v it_o by_o the_o ministry_n of_o his_o servant_n m._n in_o so_o do_v he_o do_v there_o daily_o the_o office_n of_o prophet_n p._n if_o he_o do_v not_o so_o all_o the_o rest_n as_o well_o prophet_n as_o apostle_n and_o all_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n shall_v travel_v in_o deed_n in_o vain_a m._n do_v he_o also_o the_o like_a in_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n a._n p._n thou_o may_v easy_o judge_v by_o that_o which_o saint_n john_n baptist_n say_v that_o as_o for_o he_o he_o baptize_v but_o with_o water_n but_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o other_o to_o wit_n jesus_n christ_n which_o shall_v baptise_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o with_o fire_n m._n it_o seem_v to_o i_o that_o this_o passage_n which_o thou_o haste_v even_o now_o allege_v do_v confirm_v all_o that_o which_o thou_o have_v already_o speak_v of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o ministry_n of_o jesus_n christ_n p._n it_o be_v very_o certain_a for_o as_o he_o give_v virtue_n and_o efficacy_n to_o the_o sacrament_n even_o so_o do_v he_o to_o the_o word_n and_o to_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o same_o and_o in_o like_a sort_n he_o do_v in_o the_o sacrament_n as_o in_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o word_n for_o the_o reason_n be_v like_a of_o the_o office_n of_o king_n of_o jesus_n christ_n m._n i_o do_v now_o well_o understand_v this_o point_n concern_v the_o office_n of_o prophet_n of_o jesus_n christ_n continue_v the_o other_o which_o also_o concern_v his_o office_n peter_n the_o second_o point_n be_v touch_v his_o office_n royal_a math._n what_o do_v it_o import_v peter_n that_o he_o be_v the_o true_a and_o eternal_a king_n of_o the_o people_n of_o god_o which_o he_o have_v buy_v with_o his_o blood_n d_o and_o deliver_v from_o the_o captivity_n and_o tyranny_n of_o the_o devil_n to_o set_v they_o in_o full_a spiritual_a liberty_n and_o to_o lead_v and_o govern_v they_o as_o a_o spiritual_a king_n and_o to_o make_v they_o partaker_n with_o he_o of_o his_o heavenly_a kingdom_n be_v this_o the_o cause_n why_o he_o be_v call_v our_o lord_n p._n it_o be_v certain_a that_o this_o name_n and_o title_n be_v propre_o give_v unto_o he_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o redemption_n b_o by_o the_o which_o he_o have_v win_v we_o to_o himself_o and_o for_o the_o which_o cause_n his_o people_n be_v call_v the_o win_v people_n of_o the_o office_n of_o

office_n of_o sacrificer_n p._n it_o be_v a_o office_n which_o do_v also_o comprehend_v three_o very_a excellent_a thing_n the_o which_o jesus_n christ_n have_v full_o accomplish_v in_o perfection_n m._n which_o be_v they_o p._n to_o teach_v to_o pray_v and_o to_o offer_v sacrifice_n of_o the_o office_n to_o teach_v m._n the_o ancient_a priest_n of_o the_o law_n have_v they_o all_o these_o office_n p._n it_o appear_v that_o they_o have_v the_o office_n to_o teach_v b_o by_o that_o which_o be_v write_v in_o malachi_n the_o lip_n of_o the_o sacrificer_n do_v keep_v knowledge_n and_o man_n shall_v require_v the_o law_n at_o his_o mouth_n for_o he_o be_v the_o ambassador_n and_o messenger_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n m._n touch_v this_o point_n jesus_n christ_n have_v very_o well_o discharge_v himself_o for_o he_o have_v not_o spare_v to_o teach_v the_o people_n yea_o in_o his_o own_o person_n p._n no_o man_n may_v doubt_n thereof_o of_o two_o most_o principal_a part_n of_o the_o preestly_a office_n of_o jesus_n christ_n m._n but_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o that_o this_o point_n be_v already_o comprehend_v under_o the_o office_n of_o prophet_n a._n p._n it_o be_v true_a and_o therefore_o he_o be_v call_v proper_o the_o eternal_a priest_n after_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n because_o of_o the_o prayer_n and_o of_o the_o sacrifice_n by_o which_o he_o have_v be_v

the_o law_n but_o it_o do_v also_o declare_v unto_o we_o the_o cause_n why_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o this_o office_n shall_v be_v assign_v to_o jesus_n christ_n m._n what_o be_v it_o then_o that_o be_v ment_fw-la by_o it_o p._n that_o every_o priest_n be_v ordain_v to_o pray_v first_o for_o his_o own_o sin_n and_o then_o for_o those_o of_o the_o people_n and_o in_o like_a sort_n to_o

to_o understand_v that_o they_o can_v make_v no_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n which_o shall_v be_v sufficient_a to_o appease_v his_o wrath_n toward_o his_o people_n m._n why_o so_o p._n i_o have_v already_o show_v thou_o heretofore_o that_o there_o be_v no_o man_n that_o may_v do_v any_o work_n which_o may_v be_v acceptable_a to_o he_o if_o first_o the_o person_n which_o do_v it_o be_v not_o
