gospel_n which_o be_v preach_v of_o i_o be_v no_o after_o 〈◊〉_d for_o i_o neither_o receive_v it_o of_o man_n neither_o be_v i_o teach_v it_o but_o by_o the_o revelation_n of_o jesus_n christ._n but_o it_o may_v be_v it_o will_v be_v object_v that_o i●_n these_o time_n revelation_n be_v cease_v there_o be_v to_o such_o revelation_n now_o in_o our_o day_n as_o have_v be_v in_o former_a time_n answ_n there_o be_v the_o same_o revelation_n and_o inspiration_n as_o be_v in_o former_a time_n else_o how_o can_v finite_a creature_n know_v the_o mind_n of_o a_o infinite_a god_n and_o his_o love_n to_o they_o in_o christ_n from_o all_o eternity_n true_o those_o that_o deny_v revelation_n and_o inspiration_n must_v also_o deny_v the_o scripture_n and_o in_o jer._n 31.33_o 34._o the_o lord_n declare_v that_o he_o will_v make_v a_o covenant_n with_o his_o people_n and_o will_v put_v his_o law_n into_o their_o heart_n and_o write_v they_o in_o their_o inward_a part_n and_o there_o the_o lord_n say_v by_o the_o witness_n of_o his_o spirit_n witness_v to_o our_o spirit_n that_o we_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o in_o ver_fw-la 34._o the_o lord_n say_v and_o they_o shall_v teach_v no_o more_o every_o man_n his_o neighbour_n and_o every_o man_n his_o brother_n say_v know_v the_o lord_n for_o they_o shall_v all_o know_v i_o from_o the_o least_o of_o they_o unto_o the_o great_a of_o they_o say_v the_o lord_n and_o again_o mark_v that_o say_n in_o 1_o john_n 2.27_o but_o the_o anoint_v which_o we_o have_v receive_v of_o he_o abide_v in_o you_o and_o you_o need_v not_o that_o any_o man_n teach_v you_o but_o as_o the_o same_o anoint_v teach_v you_o of_o all_o thing_n and_o true_o if_o these_o immediate_a teach_n of_o god_n be_v not_o by_o revelation_n nor_o by_o inspiration_n i_o wonder_v how_o it_o will_v be_v make_v to_o appear_v that_o these_o scripture_n be_v true_a see_v it_o be_v not_o in_o the_o power_n of_o any_o finite_a creature_n to_o make_v know_v the_o mystery_n of_o salvation_n or_o the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n according_a to_o the_o purpose_n of_o god_n from_o all_o eternity_n we_o find_v in_o 1_o cor._n 2._o to_o the_o four_o verse_n the_o

but_o christ_n and_o he_o crucify_v even_o to_o preach_v a_o naked_a christ_n to_o declare_v nothing_o but_o a_o bare_a christ_n upon_o his_o own_o term_n and_o true_o he_o do_v not_o come_v with_o entice_a word_n of_o man_n wisdom_n but_o in_o demonstration_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o of_o power_n where_o be_v there_o such_o a_o ministry_n now_o with_o we_o in_o england_n as_o this_o be_v the_o apostle_n say_v in_o vexse_n 7._o we_o speak_v the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n in_o a_o mystery_n and_o in_o the_o nine_o verse_n declare_v that_o eye_n have_v not_o see_v neither_o have_v it_o enter_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n the_o thing_n which_o god_n have_v ●rep●●ed_v for_o they_o that_o love_v he_o and_o in_o the_o ten_o verse_n he_o say_v but_o god_n have_v reveal_v they_o to_o 〈◊〉_d by_o 〈◊〉_d spirit_n for_o say_v he_o the_o spirit_n searcheth_z 〈…〉_o of_o god_n yet_o our_o minister_n of_o a●●christ_n which_o 〈◊〉_d with_o we_o in_o england_n say_v we_o must_v study_v to_o find_v out_o truth_n true_o this_o be_v contrary_a to_o he_o ministry_n which_o be_v record_v in_o scripture_n as_o clear_o have_v be_v prove_v true_o our_o minister_n study_v how_o to_o 〈◊〉_d the_o rich_a of_o the_o world_n to_o be_v their_o friend_n and_o how_o to_o have_v the_o sword_n to_o befriend_v they_o and_o study_v to_o get_v fat_a live_n and_o study_n how_o to_o rail_v against_o man_n that_o walk_v not_o in_o the_o same_o form_n with_o they_o even_o with_o madness_n and_o bitterness_n of_o spirit_n where_o be_v there_o a_o minister_n in_o england_n that_o be_v familiar_a with_o the_o poor_a as_o they_o be_v with_o the_o rich_a no_o they_o be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n proud_a person_n haughty_a high_a mind_a gormandize_v greedy_a belly_n god_n a_o false_a dissemble_a lie_a generation_n they_o be_v such_o as_o be_v speak_v of_o in_o hosea_n 6.9_o say_v and_o as_o troop_n of_o robber_n wait_v for_o a_o man_n so_o the_o company_n of_o priest_n murder_n in_o the_o way_n by_o consent_n for_o they_o commit_v lewdness_n true_o so_o be_v it_o with_o our_o priest_n of_o england_n how_o many_o year_n have_v they_o commit_v murder_n by_o consent_n they_o live_v like_o dro●es_n and_o lie_v in_o their_o den_n to_o study_v mischief_n and_o to_o set_v the_o nation_n a_o burn_a with_o madness_n one_o against_o another_o but_o some_o may_v say_v why_o do_v you_o term_v they_o to_o drone_n true_o i_o understand_v this_o term_n to_o be_v most_o fit_a and_o suitable_a for_o they_o and_o for_o the_o most_o part_n you_o shall_v find_v but_o one_o in_o a_o parish_n as_o common_o you_o shall_v see_v but_o one_o drone_n in_o a_o hive_n of_o bee_n but_o we_o see_v in_o a_o hive_n of_o bee_n where_o a_o drone_n be_v that_o life_n upon_o the_o honey_n that_o the_o poor_a bee_n work_v for_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o bee_n be_v they_o with_o one_o consent_n will_v take_v the_o drone_n and_o drag_v he_o out_o they_o will_v not_o suffer_v the_o drone_n to_o live_v there_o to_o eat_v up_o the_o honey_n that_o the_o labour_a bee_n work_v for_o oh_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n to_o behold_v in_o these_o little_a creature_n that_o they_o shall_v be_v so_o wise_a in_o their_o generation_n it_o be_v a_o wonder_n of_o wonder_n to_o consider_v of_o in_o these_o small_a creature_n and_o true_o i_o can_v but_o wonder_v to_o see_v how_o this_o nation_n be_v besot_v to_o maintain_v in_o every_o parish_n one_o drone_n and_o in_o some_o parish_n two_o drone_n to_o eat_v up_o the_o honey_n that_o all_o the_o labour_a bee_n work_v for_o and_o as_o it_o be_v with_o these_o drone_n in_o a_o hive_n of_o bee_n they_o will_v not_o work_v so_o be_v it_o with_o our_o drone_n they_o will_v not_o work_v but_o they_o will_v compel_v the_o poor_a bee_n to_o work_v for_o they_o and_o they_o will_v eat_v of_o the_o best_a honey_n too_o and_o when_o these_o drone_n lie_v upon_o their_o bed_n of_o down_n the_o minister_n of_o christ_n must_v lie_v in_o a_o dungeon_n or_o some_o stink_a prison_n as_o paul_n declare_v in_o 2_o cor._n 11.23_o say_n be_v they_o minister_n of_o christ_n i_o speak_v as_o a_o fool_n i_o be_o more_o in_o labour_n more_o abundant_a in_o stripe_n above_o measure_n in_o prison_n more_o frequent_a in_o death_n oft_o and_o so_o the_o apostle_n go_v on_o from_o this_o 23._o verse_n to_o the_o end_n of_o verse_n 27._o and_o in_o verse_n 27._o he_o say_v in_o weariness_n and_o painfulness_n in_o watch_n often_o in_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n in_o fasting_n often_o in_o cold_a and_o nakedness_n and_o in_o verse_n 28._o he_o conclude_v beside_o all_o these_o thing_n he_o have_v the_o care_n of_o all_o the_o church_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o paul_n do_v undergo_v be_v a_o minister_n of_o christ_n peter_n also_o in_o act_n 5.18_o paul_n and_o silas_n act_v 16.24_o this_o be_v record_v of_o the_o true_a ministry_n of_o christ_n and_o what_o they_o do_v undergo_v for_o the_o truth_n whereas_o our_o drone_n lie_v lurk_v in_o their_o den_n study_v how_o to_o get_v the_o fat_a of_o the_o land_n and_o how_o to_o rail_v against_o the_o people_n of_o god_n but_o i_o pray_v mark_n they_o be_v not_o set_v in_o the_o church_n according_a as_o that_o ministry_n be_v which_o be_v record_v in_o scripture_n by_o the_o apostle_n paul_n and_o which_o be_v mention_v in_o the_o former_a part_n of_o this_o treatise_n as_o we_o find_v in_o 1_o cor._n 12.28_o there_o the_o apostle_n faith_n god_n have_v set_v they_o in_o the_o church_n and_o again_o in_o ephes_n 4.11_o he_o say_v god_n give_v some_o to_o be_v as_o it_o be_v there_o declare_v here_o be_v as_o great_a a_o difference_n betwixt_o these_o that_o god_n give_v and_o that_o god_n set_v to_o be_v in_o the_o church_n and_o these_o drone_n of_o england_n as_o there_o be_v between_o
