by_o another_o i_o shall_v take_v notice_n of_o none_o but_o the_o first_o and_o last_o see_v i_o have_v already_o upon_o some_o former_a occasion_n take_v notice_n of_o all_o the_o rest_n in_o the_o first_o question_v you_o suppose_v i_o ask_v who_o you_o be_v your_o answer_n be_v that_o true_o you_o be_v homo_fw-la nullius_fw-la nominis_fw-la which_o be_v english_v be_v that_o you_o be_v a_o man_n of_o no_o name_n true_o sir_n i_o do_v not_o blame_v you_o for_o put_v no_o name_n to_o your_o book_n of_o you_o say_v true_a book_n i_o have_v otherwise_o interpret_v this_o phrase_n have_v he_o put_v a_o name_n to_o his_o book_n that_o you_o have_v no_o name_n but_o how_o be_v this_o oversight_n commit_v that_o your_o godfathers_n and_o godmothers_n do_v not_o give_v you_o one_o in_o your_o baptism_n or_o be_v you_o not_o yet_o baptize_v if_o you_o be_v not_o be_v it_o because_o your_o father_n be_v excommunicate_v or_o that_o he_o be_v no_o christian_n and_o therefore_o you_o have_v no_o right_a if_o so_o you_o have_v do_v enough_o now_o to_o give_v mr._n willes_n a_o testimony_n of_o your_o christianity_n therefore_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o he_o will_v baptize_v you_o and_o that_o you_o will_v in_o your_o next_o be_v homo_fw-la nominis_fw-la your_o last_o question_n be_v but_o why_o do_v you_o answer_v i_o in_o counter-query_n have_v make_v this_o question_n you_o thus_o answer_v it_o yourself_o and_o tell_v i_o that_o you_o answer_v by_o counter-query_n that_o i_o may_v see_v how_o easy_a it_o be_v for_o a_o fool_n to_o ask_v more_o question_n than_o a_o wise_a man_n can_v answer_v true_o sir_n i_o shall_v willing_o become_v a_o fool_n for_o christ_n sake_n that_o i_o may_v be_v wise_a but_o it_o seem_v the_o foolish_a thing_n of_o god_n have_v confound_v the_o wise_a for_o you_o say_v the_o fool_n have_v ask_v more_o question_n then_o the_o wise_a man_n can_v answer_v sure_o this_o indeed_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o you_o do_v not_o answer_v positive_o i_o come_v to_o your_o query_n and_o first_o you_o state_n the_o question_n as_o i_o print_v it_o it_o be_v that_o upon_o which_o many_o of_o my_o question_n be_v ground_v herein_o you_o tell_v i_o i_o have_v deal_v ingenious_o with_o mr._n willes_n in_o the_o right_n state_v of_o the_o difference_n and_o than_o you_o propound_v your_o first_o counter-query_a wherein_o you_o ask_v i_o quest_n 1_o whether_o that_o be_v not_o a_o sin_n which_o be_v practise_v as_o a_o gospel-duty_n and_o have_v no_o law_n or_o foundation_n in_o the_o gospel_n who_o have_v require_v these_o thing_n at_o your_o hand_n answ_n i_o answer_v that_o be_v a_o sin_n which_o be_v so_o practise_v without_o a_o precept_n and_o therefore_o mr._n willes_n and_o you_o both_o do_v err_v in_o lay_v man_n under_o sin_n for_o preach_v without_o ordination_n and_o in_o baptise_v infant_n and_o in_o give_v the_o lord_n supper_n to_o profane_v and_o scandalous_a person_n who_o have_v require_v these_o and_o lay-elders_a with_o suchlike_a innovation_n at_o your_o hand_n quest_n 2_o your_o second_o query_n you_o make_v upon_o i_o be_v must_v not_o then_o unordain_v man_n preach_v be_v sinful_a &_o c_o answ_n i_o answer_v no_o because_o they_o have_v all_o these_o text_n here_o mention_v 4.10_o mal._n 3.16_o heb._n 10.25_o heb._n 5.12_o 1_o cor._n 14.13_o 14._o 1_o pet._n 4.10_o to_o justify_v such_o a_o practice_n but_o you_o have_v none_o to_o justify_v those_o thing_n that_o i_o object_n against_o you_o in_o my_o answer_n to_o your_o first_o but_o to_o these_o text_n i_o shall_v say_v more_o in_o due_a place_n when_o i_o come_v to_o weigh_v your_o query_n concern_v they_o quest_n 3_o in_o your_o next_o you_o ask_v if_o titus_n 1.5_o be_v not_o a_o apostolical_a institution_n for_o ordain_v elder_n and_o whether_o public_a teach_n be_v not_o a_o act_n of_o that_o office_n as_o well_o as_o baptism_n be_v both_o in_o the_o same_o commission_n mat._n 28.19_o etc._n etc._n and_o whether_o unordained_a man_n be_v not_o usurper_n of_o that_o office_n etc._n etc._n this_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o your_o question_n answ_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o this_o text_n though_o it_o do_v prove_v ordain_v elder_n to_o be_v a_o institution_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o prove_v that_o none_o but_o such_o aught_o to_o preach_v for_o will_v this_o be_v a_o good_a argument_n paul_n leave_v titus_n in_o crete_n to_o ordain_v elder_n in_o every_o city_n therefore_o none_o must_v preach_v but_o elder_n may_v not_o
