the_o first_o cause_n of_o his_o fear_n his_o own_o and_o his_o people_n pollution_n it_o follow_v and_o my_o eye_n have_v see_v the_o king_n and_o lord_n lord_n of_o host_n the_o second_o cause_n of_o the_o prophet_n fear_n and_o astonishment_n be_v he_o san_z the_o lord_n who_o then_o appear_v in_o glory_n unto_o he_o not_o that_o he_o see_v the_o substance_n of_o god_n for_o that_o be_v

the_o king_n of_o glory_n at_o who_o sight_n and_o think_v of_o his_o presence_n instant_o his_o conscience_n be_v smite_v with_o fear_n for_o his_o own_o infirmity_n and_o the_o pollution_n of_o his_o people_n wherein_o let_v we_o first_o of_o all_o observe_v the_o connexion_n and_o dependence_n of_o these_o two_o cause_n one_o upon_o another_o for_o as_o they_o be_v both_o joint_o the_o cause_n of_o his_o fear_n so_o one_o of_o they_o be_v in_o a_o sort_n the_o cause_n of_o another_o he_o fear_v because_o of_o his_o own_o and_o his_o people_n sin_n and_o because_o he_o see_v the_o

have_v glory_v to_o see_v the_o lord_n but_o his_o conscience_n check_v he_o for_o some_o defect_n of_o duty_n in_o his_o call_n therefore_o he_o tremble_v at_o the_o least_o glimpse_n of_o god_n

which_o offend_v he_o &_o which_o provoke_v his_o wrath_n and_o just_a displeasure_n therefore_o as_o a_o subject_n can_v but_o be_v much_o amaze_v if_o he_o hap_v to_o come_v into_o the_o king_n presence_n with_o any_o thing_n about_o he_o which_o the_o king_n hate_v or_o can_v abide_v to_o see_v so_o a_o man_n can_v but_o be_v extreme_a astonish_v if_o he_o know_v himself_o to_o be_v in_o

and_o majesty_n of_o god_n word_n in_o the_o manner_n of_o deliver_v it_o the_o second_o use_n concern_v the_o minister_n spirit_n also_o be_v they_o god_n angel_n therefore_o they_o must_v preach_v

in_o the_o demonstration_n of_o god_n spirit_n be_v to_o speak_v in_o such_o a_o plain_n and_o yet_o such_o a_o powerfulness_n as_o that_o the_o capacity_n of_o the_o simple_a may_v perceive_v not_o

be_v so_o appear_v by_o saint_n paul_n if_o a_o man_n prophesy_v aright_o say_v the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o unlearned_a 25._o or_o unbelieve_a man_n come_v in_o he_o think_v his_o secret_a fault_n be_v

in_o which_o word_n observe_v a_o admirable_a do_v plainness_n and_o a_o admirable_a powerfulnesse_n which_o a_o man_n will_v think_v can_v not_o so_o plain_o well_o stand_v together_o first_o plainness_n for_o whereas_o the_o unlearned_a man_n perceive_v his_o fault_n discoverrd_v it_o follow_v necessary_o he_o must_v needs_o understand_v and_o if_o a_o unlearned_a man_n understand_v it_o then_o consequent_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v plain_a second_o powerfulnesse_n in_o that_o his_o conscience_n be_v so_o convince_a his_o secret_a fault_n so_o disclose_v plainness_n and_o his_o very_a heart_n so_o rip_v up_o that_o he_o say_v certain_o god_n speak_v in_o this_o man_n this_o be_v the_o evidence_n and_o demonstration_n of_o god_n spirit_n it_o be_v think_v good_a commendation_n before_o the_o world_n when_o man_n say_v of_o a_o preacher_n sure_o this_o man_n have_v show_v himself_o a_o proper_a scholar_n of_o good_a learning_n great_a read_n strong_a memory_n and_o good_a delivery_n preach_v and_o so_o it_o be_v and_o such_o commendation_n if_o just_a be_v not_o to_o be_v contemn_v but_o that_o that_o commend_v a_o man_n to_o the_o lord_n his_o god_n and_o to_o his_o own_o conscience_n be_v when_o he_o preach_v so_o plain_o to_o the_o capacity_n and_o so_o powerful_o to_o the_o conscience_n of_o a_o wicked_a man_n as_o that_o he_o think_v doubtless_o god_n be_v within_o he_o be_v thou_o therefore_o a_o angel_n of_o god_n then_o magnify_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o not_o thyself_o in_o thy_o preach_n of_o his_o word_n the_o next_o use_n be_v for_o the_o hearer_n and_o they_o be_v here_o teach_v that_o if_o their_o minister_n be_v hearer_n angel_n send_v they_o from_o god_n then_o be_v they_o to_o hear_v they_o glad_o willing_o reverent_o reveren_o and_o obedient_o glad_o and_o willing_o because_o they_o be_v ambassador_n reverent_o and_o obedient_o because_o they_o be_v send_v from_o the_o high_a god_n the_o king_n of_o king_n and_o do_v deliver_v his_o embaslage_n god_n say_v the_o people_n must_v seek_v the_o law_n at_o his_o mouth_n 7._o and_o good_a reason_n for_o if_o the_o law_n be_v the_o reveal_v will_n of_o god_n and_o the_o minister_n the_o angel_n of_o god_n then_o where_o shall_v they_o seek_v the_o will_n of_o god_n but_o at_o the_o mouth_n of_o his_o angel_n the_o reason_n therefore_o follow_v well_o in_o that_o place_n they_o shall_v seek_v the_o law_n at_o his_o mouth_n for_o he_o be_v the_o messenger_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n and_o this_o must_v all_o christian_n do_v not_o only_o if_o their_o doctrine_n be_v please_v unto_o they_o but_o though_o it_o cross_v their_o corruption_n and_o be_v quite_o contrary_a to_o their_o disposition_n yea_o though_o it_o it_o be_v never_o so_o unsavoury_a and_o hard_a unto_o nature_n yet_o in_o as_o much_o as_o it_o be_v a_o message_n from_o thy_o god_n and_o king_n and_o the_o teacher_n the_o angellor_n messenger_n of_o that_o god_n therefore_o both_o he_o and_o it_o must_v be_v receive_v with_o all_o reverence_n and_o with_o the_o very_a obedience_n of_o the_o heart_n and_o soul_n and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o a_o convenient_a reverence_n and_o honour_n be_v to_o be_v give_v of_o all_o good_a christian_n even_o to_o the_o person_n of_o god_n minister_n especial_o when_o they_o adorn_v their_o high_a call_n with_o a_o holy_a life_n even_o because_o they_o be_v angel_n of_o god_n saint_n paul_n teach_v that_o woman_n ought_v to_o be_v modest_o altire_v in_o the_o congregation_n 11._o because_o of_o the_o angel_n it_o be_v not_o only_o because_o the_o holy_a angel_n be_v present_a and_o always_o beholder_n of_o our_o service_n of_o god_n but_o even_o because_o the_o minister_n which_o be_v angel_n and_o messenger_n send_v from_o god_n be_v there_o deliner_a their_o message_n and_o embassage_n receive_v from_o god_n and_o thus_o we_o have_v the_o first_o title_n give_v to_o the_o minister_n he_o be_v a_o angel_n a_o interpreter_n second_o he_o be_v a_o interpreter_n that_o be_v wa●es_n one_o that_o be_v able_a to_o deliver_v aright_o the_o reconciliation_n make_v betwixt_o god_n and_o man_n i_o say_v not_o the_o author_n of_o that_o reconciliation_n for_o that_o be_v the_o godhead_n itself_o nor_o the_o worker_n of_o this_o reconciliation_n for_o that_o be_v the_o second_o person_n christ_n jesus_n nor_o the_o assurer_n or_o ratifier_n of_o it_o for_o that_o be_v the_o holy_a ghost_n nor_o the_o instrument_n of_o it_o for_o that_o be_v the_o glad_a tiding_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o i_o say_v he_o be_v the_o interpreter_n of_o it_o that_o be_v first_o one_o that_o can_v open_v and_o explain_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o right_o lay_v down_o the_o mean_n how_o church_n this_o reconciliation_n be_v wrought_v second_o one_o that_o can_v right_o and_o just_o apply_v those_o mean_n for_o the_o work_n of_o it_o out_o three_o one_o that_o have_v authority_n to_o publish_v and_o declare_v it_o when_o it_o be_v wrought_v and_o by_o these_o three_o action_n he_o be_v god_n interpreter_n to_o the_o people_n god_n then_o he_o be_v also_o the_o people_n interpreter_n to_o god_n by_o be_v able_a to_o speak_v to_o god_n for_o they_o to_o lay_v open_a their_o want_n and_o nakedness_n to_o confess_v their_o sin_n to_o crave_v pardon_n and_o forgiveness_n to_o give_v thanks_n in_o their_o name_n for_o mercy_n receive_v and_o in_o a_o word_n to_o offer_v up_o all_o their_o spiritual_a sacrifice_n unto_o god_n for_o they_o and_o so_o every_o true_a minister_n be_v a_o double_a interpreter_n god_n to_o the_o people_n and_o the_o people_n to_o god_n in_o which_o respect_n he_o be_v proper_o call_v god_n mouth_n to_o the_o people_n by_o preach_v to_o they_o from_o god_n and_o the_o people_n mouth_n to_o god_n by_o pray_v for_o they_o to_o god_n and_o this_o title_n show_v how_o great_a &_o glorious_a a_o call_n this_o ministry_n be_v if_o it_o be_v right_o conceive_v now_o then_o for_o the_o use_n of_o it_o first_o if_o every_o true_a minister_n must_v be_v learned_a god_n interpreter_n to_o the_o people_n and_o the_o people_n to_o god_n then_o hence_o we_o learn_v that_o every_o one_o who_o either_o be_v or_o intend_v to_o be_v a_o minister_n must_v have_v that_o tongue_n of_o the_o learned_a whereof_o be_v speak_v in_o isaiah_n 50._o 4._o where_o the_o prophet_n say_v first_o in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n as_o he_o that_o be_v the_o great_a prophet_n and_o teacher_n of_o his_o church_n and_o secondary_o in_o the_o name_n of_o himself_o and_o all_o true_a prophet_n while_o the_o world_n endure_v the_o lord_n god_n have_v give_v i_o a_o tongue_n of_o the_o learned_a that_o i_o shall_v know_v to_o speak_v a_o word_n in_o season_n to_o he_o that_o be_v weary_a where_o note_v the_o weary_a soul_n or_o trouble_a conscience_n must_v have_v a_o word_n in_o season_n speak_v to_o he_o for_o his_o comfort_n and_o that_o can_v be_v speak_v without_o the_o tongue_n of_o the_o learned_a and_o last_o that_o tongue_n of_o the_o learned_a must_v be_v give_v divinity_n of_o god_n now_o to_o have_v this_o tongue_n of_o the_o learned_a which_o
