be_v the_o judge_n of_o all_o controversy_n i_o mean_v such_o controversy_n as_o be_v concern_v religion_n now_o there_o be_v two_o principal_a controversy_n concern_v religion_n the_o first_o be_v of_o the_o scripture_n itself_o who_o shall_v be_v judge_n here_o or_o how_o it_o may_v be_v try_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n the_o second_o scripture_n the_o judge_n of_o the_o scripture_n be_v of_o the_o sense_n and_o interpretation_n of_o the_o scripture_n who_o shall_v judge_n of_o that_o or_o how_o it_o may_v appear_v that_o this_o or_o that_o be_v the_o very_a natural_a sense_n of_o the_o scripture_n i_o mean_v by_o judgement_n here_o a_o definitive_a sentence_n pronounce_v and_o give_v with_o such_o authority_n as_o that_o all_o man_n must_v herein_o rest_v by_o the_o word_n scripture_n i_o mean_v not_o only_o the_o substance_n thereof_o but_o also_o the_o form_n of_o revelation_n which_o be_v also_o by_o divine_a inspiration_n again_o this_o manner_n of_o speak_v be_v improper_a when_o we_o say_v of_o the_o scripture_n that_o it_o be_v the_o judge_n of_o controversy_n for_o to_o speak_v proper_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v the_o judge_n for_o the_o judge_n must_v be_v a_o person_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n he_o be_v the_o three_o person_n in_o trinity_n the_o scripture_n therefore_o be_v not_o proper_o say_v to_o be_v a_o judge_n but_o it_o be_v the_o voice_n and_o sentence_n which_o the_o judge_n have_v give_v the_o principal_a instrument_n or_o mean_v whereby_o y_a e_o spirit_n set_v forth_o his_o judgement_n &_o whereby_o he_o teach_v we_o and_o work_v faith_n in_o our_o heart_n and_o the_o spirit_n here_o judge_v free_o in_o and_o by_o who_o he_o please_v be_v not_o tie_v to_o any_o one_o kind_a of_o man_n as_o pastor_n &_o doctor_n but_o in_o and_o by_o who_o it_o seem_v good_a to_o he_o here_o then_o three_o thing_n must_v be_v consider_v of_o we_o first_o whether_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v a_o judge_n second_o whether_o the_o scripture_n be_v his_o principal_a voice_n whereby_o he_o give_v judge_n first_o whether_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v a_o judge_n sentence_n or_o determine_v any_o question_n three_o whether_o he_o judge_n in_o and_o by_o any_o man_n without_o difference_n or_o respect_n of_o person_n or_o be_v bind_v to_o one_o certain_a kind_n or_o sort_n of_o man_n for_o the_o first_o question_n i_o answer_v the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v a_o judge_n first_o for_o that_o he_o be_v promise_v of_o christ_n 16._o io_n 14._o math_n 28._o mar._n 16._o unto_o his_o church_n at_o his_o last_o

office_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n this_o be_v one_o to_o judge_v but_o because_o the_o adversary_n do_v not_o much_o gainsay_v this_o assertion_n concern_v 16._o io._n 16._o god_n spirit_n that_o by_o he_o all_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v judge_v and_o try_v and_o that_o by_o he_o the_o scripture_n be_v to_o be_v interpret_v therefore_o we_o will_v be_v brief_a in_o this_o point_n now_o for_o the_o second_o point_n that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v the_o primarie_a judge_n second_o that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v the_o principal_a voice_n of_o the_o judge_n voice_n of_o this_o judge_n judiciary_n and_o proper_a to_o he_o whereby_o he_o beget_v faith_n in_o our_o heart_n may_v appear_v by_o these_o reason_n follow_v first_o the_o scripture_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n second_o it_o be_v most_o ancient_a three_o it_o be_v most_o clear_a or_o evident_a to_o these_o i_o add_v the_o testimony_n of_o the_o scripture_n itself_o joh._n 14._o 25._o 26._o he_o shall_v
