petition_n wherein_o my_o request_n be_v contain_v you_o bring_v a_o text_n of_o s._n paul_n 1_o cor._n 14.17_o against_o this_o tenet_n and_o you_o will_v not_o have_v we_o to_o consider_v the_o object_n or_o end_n to_o which_o he_o direct_v his_o discourse_n but_o the_o reason_n and_o instance_n he_o allege_n as_o if_o his_o reason_n or_o any_o man_n reason_n can_v be_v of_o force_n to_o prove_v any_o thing_n but_o in_o relation_n to_o the_o object_n or_o subject_n of_o his_o discourse_n to_o the_o contrary_a for_o to_o understand_v the_o apostle_n reason_n in_o the_o genuine_a fence_n we_o must_v observe_v to_o what_o end_n he_o direct_v his_o discourse_n and_o the_o subject_n he_o treat_v of_o and_o no_o unpreiudice_v man_n will_v read_v that_o chapter_n but_o will_v manifest_o preceive_v that_o he_o do_v not_o speak_v of_o prayer_n to_o god_n but_o of_o preach_v and_o instruction_n of_o the_o congregation_n which_o he_o some_o time_n in_o that_o chap._n call_v prayer_n but_o the_o context_n show_v plain_o that_o what_o he_o mean_v be_v exhortation_n or_o instruction_n of_o the_o people_n for_o all_o a_o long_a he_o disprove_v that_o pray_v or_o speak_v in_o a_o unknowen_a language_n and_o give_v for_o reason_n because_o the_o hearer_n do_v not_o understand_v it_o do_v not_o this_o reason_n apparent_o prove_v that_o he_o mean_v what_o be_v speak_v unto_o the_o people_n which_o be_v what_o we_o now_o call_v sermon_n or_o exhortation_n for_o s._n paul_n can_v not_o condemn_v prayer_n make_v to_o god_n in_o a_o unknowen_a language_n and_o give_v that_o for_o reason_n because_o the_o hearer_n do_v not_o understand_v it_o for_o the_o hearer_n of_o the_o prayer_n make_v to_o god_n be_v not_o the_o people_n but_o god_n to_o who_o the_o prayer_n be_v make_v and_o of_o he_o s._n paul_n can_v not_o say_v that_o he_o do_v not_o understand_v therefore_o he_o can_v not_o condemn_v speak_v to_o he_o in_o a_o unknowen_a language_n to_o be_v brief_a i_o propose_v this_o syllogism_n s._n paul_n in_o that_o chap._n condemn_v speak_v in_o a_o language_n that_o the_o hearer_n can_v not_o understand_v this_o be_v evident_a out_o of_o the_o tetx_n but_o in_o the_o public_a prayer_n of_o the_o church_n we_o only_o speak_v to_o god_n he_o only_o be_v the_o hearer_n of_o those_o prayer_n for_o to_o he_o they_o be_v make_v and_o direct_v and_o not_o to_o the_o people_n and_o he_o can_v understand_v in_o any_o language_n therefore_o s._n paul_n do_v not_o condemn_v the_o public_a prayer_n of_o the_o church_n in_o any_o language_n again_o s._n paul_n condemn_v speak_v in_o a_o unknowen_a language_n that_o the_o hearer_n to_o who_o one_o do_v speak_v do_v not_o undestand_v but_o in_o the_o church_n nothing_o be_v speak_v to_o the_o people_n but_o what_o be_v preach_v or_o teach_v by_o exhortation_n sermon_n exposition_n of_o the_o gospel_n etc._n etc._n then_o and_o only_o then_o the_o congregation_n be_v the_o hearer_n therefore_o what_o s._n paul_n condemn_v be_v preach_v exhort_v or_o expound_v the_o gospel_n unto_o the_o people_n in_o unknowen_a language_n because_o then_o the_o hearer_n can_v not_o understand_v what_o be_v speak_v to_o they_o he_o tell_v we_o what_o great_a blessing_n the_o protestant_n enjoy_v by_o have_v the_o public_a service_n in_o common_a language_n how_o much_o it_o conduce_v for_o the_o increase_n of_o

of_o speech_n if_o not_o understand_v by_o the_o hearer_n when_o we_o pray_v god_n be_v the_o hearer_n and_o he_o understand_v any_o language_n and_o when_o we_o preach_v or_o exhort_v the_o

lawfullness_n of_o pray_v in_o a_o unknowen_a language_n i_o say_v the_o public_a prayer_n of_o the_o church_n as_o for_o private_a prayer_n be_v confess_o lawful_a and_o commendable_a to_o pray_v in_o vulgar_a language_n and_o the_o necessity_n of_o it_o the_o lawfullness_n be_v prove_v the_o jewish_a church_n have_v their_o public_a service_n in_o the_o hebrew_n language_n which_o be_v not_o
