with_o it_o all_o which_o judgement_n do_v teach_v the_o church_n at_o this_o day_n true_a judgement_n namely_o to_o set_v itself_o both_o against_o small_a &_o against_o great_a company_n if_o they_o

of_o the_o church_n and_o people_n of_o god_n 5._o let_v jeremie_n himself_o answer_v it_o for_o indeed_o by_o their_o usual_a and_o common_a profession_n and_o trade_n of_o life_n they_o show_v not_o

&_o judge_v to_o deserve_v separation_n shall_v not_o be_v separate_a except_o the_o most_o part_n do_v consent_n he_o will_v say_v peradventure_o that_o he_o except_v idolater_n &_o apostate_n from_o the_o lord._n why_o then_o do_v he_o give_v a_o general_a rule_n without_o name_v such_o exception_n yet_o christ_n for_o all_o disobedience_n in_o refuse_v any_o message_n of_o god_n do_v give_v

for_o if_o they_o receive_v you_o not_o say_v he_o nor_o hear_v your_o word_n when_o you_o depart_v out_o of_o that_o house_n or_o that_o city_n shake_v off_o the_o dust_n of_o your_o foot_n against_o they_o he_o will_v answer_v that_o their_o sin_n also_o of_o not_o receive_v the_o messenger_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o sin_n of_o apostasy_n and_o be_v not_o this_o a_o message_n from_o christ_n when_o one_o or_o a_o few_o person_n do_v just_o rebuke_v the_o congregation_n for_o overthrow_v the_o lord_n discipline_n and_o tread_v his_o sceptre_n under_o foot_n and_o be_v not_o his_o sceptre_n cast_v down_o and_o his_o kingdom_n pollute_v when_o he_o which_o be_v manifest_o know_v and_o prove_v to_o deserve_v separation_n can_v not_o be_v cast_v out_o but_o again_o he_o will_v say_v that_o those_o city_n and_o church_n be_v not_o cast_v off_o for_o refuse_v the_o lord_n messenger_n but_o for_o refuse_v such_o a_o message_n as_o they_o bring_v namely_o that_o the_o christ_n and_o

shall_v tell_v no_o man_n 20._o that_o he_o be_v jesus_n the_o christ_n mean_v that_o till_o his_o death_n and_o rise_v again_o it_o be_v not_o meet_v that_o that_o doctrine_n shall_v be_v blaze_v abroad_o but_o it_o be_v sufficient_a for_o that_o time_n if_o they_o general_o believe_v in_o the_o messiah_n as_o the_o jew_n also_o do_v and_o refuse_v he_o not_o when_o he_o shall_v be_v preach_v more_o clear_o yet_o long_o before_o his_o death_n be_v the_o commandment_n give_v concern_v those_o house_n or_o city_n which_o shall_v refuse_v his_o messenger_n yet_o in_o deed_n it_o be_v true_a that_o they_o which_o refuse_v his_o discipline_n and_o government_n do_v also_o refuse_v christ_n himself_o and_o so_o it_o be_v the_o sin_n of_o apostasy_n for_o so_o it_o be_v write_v 27._o those_o

now_o they_o be_v turn_v unto_o i_o say_v the_o lord_n into_o the_o plant_n of_o a_o strange_a vine_n 21._o yea_o that_o we_o be_v

the_o gate_n of_o jerusalem_n and_o that_o there_o be_v throne_n set_v for_o judgement_n nay_o say_v master_n cartwright_n the_o house_n &_o fair_a building_n do_v figure_v the_o church_n of_o god_n

that_o after_o their_o return_n from_o babylon_n the_o city_n be_v call_v the_o city_n of_o the_o great_a king_n even_o before_o the_o wall_n be_v build_v what_o proof_n bring_v he_o for_o that_o it_o be_v call_v a_o city_n indeed_o by_o nehemiah_n 3._o but_o a_o destroy_v and_o waste_a city_n he_o mean_v that_o it_o have_v be_v a_o city_n but_o now_o be_v destroy_v and_o waste_v 5._o and_o he_o say_v he_o will_v build_v the_o city_n not_o that_o it_o be_v now_o a_o city_n for_o than_o it_o have_v be_v build_v to_o his_o hand_n but_o the_o use_n of_o speech_n be_v that_o where_o a_o city_n have_v be_v to_o call_v the_o place_n and_o the_o ruinous_a heap_n of_o stone_n by_o the_o name_n of_o the_o city_n and_o so_o in_o ezra_n before_o their_o return_n from_o babylon_n the_o heathen_a king_n cyrus_n call_v the_o place_n of_o jerusalem_n by_o the_o of_o jerusalem_n yet_o be_v neither_o the_o people_n of_o god_n there_o nor_o the_o temple_n of_o god_n yea_o zion_n be_v plough_v like_o a_o field_n and_o jerusalem_n be_v a_o heap_n 3._o and_o the_o mountain_n of_o the_o house_n be_v as_o the_o high_a place_n of_o the_o forest_n 12._o and_o be_v in_o that_o case_n it_o figure_v rather_o the_o desolation_n of_o the_o spiritual_a jerusalem_n 18._o which_o in_o the_o revelation_n be_v call_v sodom_n and_o egypt_n and_o how_o then_o can_v it_o be_v the_o city_n of_o god_n 8._o save_v only_o in_o name_n for_o that_o it_o have_v be_v so_o likewise_o his_o descant_v about_o a_o vineyard_n be_v against_o himself_o for_o there_o can_v be_v no_o yard_n or_o court_n except_o it_o have_v the_o wall_n or_o fence_n of_o a_o yard_n or_o count_n and_o so_o where_o no_o yard_n be_v there_o may_v be_v vine_n grow_v but_o there_o can_v be_v no_o vineyard_n and_o so_o where_o discipline_n be_v want_v there_o may_v be_v some_o grace_n of_o god_n appear_v as_o knowledge_n and_o a_o outward_a subjection_n to_o man_n law_n and_o to_o magistrate_n yea_o there_o may_v be_v god_n

master_n cartwright_n come_v to_o that_o point_n concern_v the_o dumb_a minister_n of_o who_o as_o he_o so_o we_o also_o have_v speak_v before_o but_o here_o he_o proove_v the_o sacrament_n minister_v by_o such_o to_o be_v god_n sacrament_n and_o that_o man_n may_v receive_v they_o lawful_o his_o proof_n be_v like_o wound_n blow_v out_o of_o a_o bladder_n he_o may_v rather_o laugh_v at_o they_o himself_o then_o offer_v they_o to_o other_o to_o take_v view_n of_o his_o folly_n his_o first_o proof_n be_v they_o be_v minister_n but_o no_o lawful_a minister_n and_o they_o be_v minister_n though_o they_o be_v idol_n mynister_n therefore_o he_o conclude_v that_o though_o they_o be_v idol_n and_o unlawful_a minister_n yet_o we_o may_v hear_v then●_n and_o receyve_v the_o sacrament_n of_o they_o he_o confess_v they_o to_o be_v unlawful_a and_o idol_n minister_n and_o yet_o their_o ministration_n or_o ministry_n must_v be_v good_a and_o lawful_a this_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o one_o shall_v condemn_v a_o thief_n and_o justify_v his_o theft_n for_o if_o they_o be_v not_o messenger_n nor_o minister_n from_o christ_n than_o their_o message_n and_o ministry_n be_v not_o from_o christ_n but_o from_o the_o devil_n for_o these_o be_v coniugate_v a_o unlawful_a minister_n and_o his_o unlawful_a ministry_n a_o messenger_n from_o the_o devil_n and_o his_o message_n from_o the_o devil_n a_o wicked_a man_n to_o be_v abhor_v and_o his_o wickedness_n to_o be_v abhor_v even_o so_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o a_o minister_n be_v unlawful_a and_o of_o the_o devil_n his_o action_n and_o deed_n of_o ministration_n be_v unlawful_a and_o of_o the_o devil_n 21._o and_o so_o the_o lord_n reason_v that_o the_o people_n shall_v not_o hear_v the_o prophet_n that_o prophesy_v peace_n unto_o they_o for_o he_o have_v not_o send_v nor_o command_v they_o as_o who_o say_v because_o they_o be_v unlawful_a messenger_n therefore_o their_o message_n also_o be_v unlawful_a and_o to_o be_v refuse_v but_o master_n cartwright_n say_v that_o though_o they_o be_v unlawful_a messenger_n and_o minister_n &_o not_o of_o god_n yet_o their_o message_n and_o ministry_n be_v of_o god_n for_o it_o be_v not_o a_o false_a or_o evil_a message_n or_o ministry_n as_o be_v that_o of_o the_o false_a prophet_n but_o good_a and_o necessary_a for_o the_o church_n for_o that_o that_o be_v of_o

he_o conclude_v that_o they_o be_v minister_n of_o good_a thing_n yea_o and_o he_o add_v a_o further_a distinction_n that_o to_o we_o they_o be_v minister_n of_o god_n but_o to_o themselves_o or_o in_o respect_n of_o themselves_o they_o be_v unlawful_a minister_n sure_o these_o be_v trim_a distinction_n to_o carry_v he_o blyndefolde_a he_o can_v not_o tell_v whether_o for_o whether_o will_v he_o wander_v in_o his_o vanity_n or_o how_o many_o devilish_a doctrine_n will_v he_o heap_v up_o together_o first_o he_o say_v they_o be_v unlawful_a minister_n and_o yet_o minister_n of_o god_n then_o that_o they_o be_v minister_n of_o god_n but_o not_o lawful_a minister_n of_o god_n three_o that_o they_o have_v their_o call_n and_o allowance_n by_o the_o church_n and_o yet_o be_v thrust_v
