A74947	Rayling rebuked: or, A defence of the ministers of this nation: by way of answer to the unparrallel'd calumnies cast upon them in an epistle lately published by Thomas Speed merchant of Bristol, unhappily become the Quakers advocate. Wherein, some Scriptures are opened, and diverse things objected by the Quakers, examined and answered. With an hortatory epistle prefixed to fasten Christians to Jesus Christ in these un-glewing times, wherein so many play fast and loose with him. By William Thomas minister of the Gospel at Ubley.	Thomas, William, 1593-1667.	1656 (1656)	Thomason E883_5; ESTC R207300	68,071	90

in_o familiar_a conference_n the_o apostle_n therefore_o add_v but_o let_v your_o yea_o be_v yea_o and_o your_o nay_o nay_o that_o be_v in_o common_a discourse_n let_v there_o be_v no_o oath_n at_o

of_o a_o maintenance_n of_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n as_o to_o speak_v more_o plain_o and_o by_o way_n of_o instance_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o matter_n now_o in_o hand_n the_o levite_n have_v no_o part_n nor_o inheritance_n with_o their_o brethren_n deut._n 14_o 1._o 27._o and_o yet_o be_v god_n special_a officer_n about_o the_o service_n of_o the_o tabernacle_n wherein_o there_o time_n be_v take_v up_o they_o have_v need_n of_o a_o sufficient_a support_n for_o they_o and_o they_o in_o this_o respect_n tithe_n belong_v not_o to_o the_o ceremonial_a but_o rather_o to_o the_o judicial_a law_n as_o the_o levite_n be_v a_o part_n of_o that_o body_n of_o people_n all_o of_o which_o be_v to_o be_v provide_v for_o in_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n yea_o we_o may_v say_v to_o the_o moral_a law_n of_o the_o 2_o and_o 4._o command_n of_o the_o first_o table_n as_o they_o be_v god_n servant_n and_o to_o the_o 8._o command_n of_o the_o 2._o table_n as_o they_o be_v the_o servant_n of_o the_o church_n laborious_o employ_v for_o they_o according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o service_n prescribe_v in_o those_o time_n now_o to_o apply_v this_o in_o this_o nature_n we_o take_v tithe_n that_o be_v as_o they_o serve_v to_o make_v up_o a_o fit_a maintenance_n for_o the_o support_n of_o the_o servant_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o service_n of_o christ_n for_o the_o people_n of_o christ_n who_o partake_v of_o spiritual_a thing_n from_o we_o aught_o in_o equity_n to_o minister_v carnal_a thing_n to_o we_o rom._n 15_o 27._o 2._o tithe_n be_v

that_o relation_n but_o yet_o the_o ten_o be_v the_o only_a maintenance_n design_v unto_o we_o we_o do_v with_o a_o good_a conscience_n take_v it_o because_o there_o be_v no_o ceremony_n in_o the_o
