the_o preach_v of_o the_o gospel_n be_v express_v several_o but_o there_o be_v but_o two_o expression_n that_o have_v any_o considerable_a difference_n the_o first_o be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d

it_o be_v very_o true_a they_o build_v on_o as_o occasion_v serve_v but_o their_o great_a work_n be_v to_o discover_v the_o glad_a tiding_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o all_o mankind_n go_v you_o into_o all_o the_o world_n and_o preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o every_o creature_n mar._n 16._o 15._o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o s._n paul_n assume_v to_o himself_o as_o a_o apostle_n a_o share_n in_o the_o foundation-work_n i_o have_v lay_v the_o foundation_n and_o another_o build_v thereon_o i_o cor._n 3._o 10._o it_o must_v be_v acknowledge_v at_o the_o same_o time_n that_o the_o apostle_n do_v upon_o occasion_n exercise_v the_o ordinary_a ministerial_a function_n but_o with_o this_o caution_n i_o baptize_v also_o the_o household_n of_o stephanus_n beside_o i_o know_v not_o whether_o i_o

exercise_v it_o or_o no_o that_o whoever_o have_v the_o supreme_a and_o extraordinary_a power_n have_v likewise_o that_o which_o be_v ordinary_a and_o common_a to_o other_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n for_o most_o certain_o whatever_o power_n remain_v to_o you_o you_o have_v it_o as_o the_o apostle_n successor_n and_o therefore_o you_o ought_v to_o distinguish_v between_o that_o

be_v peculiar_a to_o they_o for_o though_o every_o bishop_n be_v a_o bishop_n of_o the_o universal_a church_n yet_o he_o be_v not_o a_o universal_a bishop_n he_o be_v a_o bishop_n every_o where_o but_o have_v ordinary_a power_n to_o act_v only_o within_o his_o diocese_n 2._o the_o power_n of_o work_a miracle_n and_o miraclous_a gift_n of_o tongue_n prophecy_n etc._n etc._n be_v complete_a only_o in_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o infancy_n of_o the_o church_n other_o have_v these_o gift_n but_o it_o be_v in_o part_n one_o after_o this_o manner_n and_o another_o after_o that_o till_o in_o

none_o after_o they_o ever_o pretend_v to_o except_o impostor_n therefore_o we_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o these_o three_o qualification_n which_o god_n have_v judge_v to_o be_v more_o proper_a for_o foundation-work_n than_o superstructure_n to_o constitute_v the_o church_n than_o to_o continue_v it_o so_o establish_v so_o that_o to_o we_o be_v leave_v only_o the_o power_n of_o execute_v what_o be_v already_o settle_a and_o the_o improve_n what_o we_o have_v before_o we_o to_o the_o best_a advantage_n 1._o our_o call_n be_v of_o the_o same_o nature_n of_o that_o with_o the_o

than_o we_o the_o call_v more_o clear_a and_o powerful_a adorn_v with_o divers_a gift_n but_o we_o come_v from_o the_o same_o fountain_n for_o if_o we_o enter_v in_o by_o the_o door_n and_o be_v

what_o we_o add_v by_o way_n of_o explanation_n or_o what_o may_v be_v agreeable_a to_o that_o which_o have_v be_v leave_v with_o we_o and_o this_o not_o as_o secure_v from_o all_o mistake_n but_o according_a to_o our_o best_a skill_n with_o the_o ordinary_a help_n of_o god_n grace_n and_o our_o own_o sincerity_n 4._o the_o administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n and_o the_o performance_n of_o
