a_o answer_n may_v be_v gather_v from_o what_o i_o have_v before_o deliver_v at_o present_a i_o shall_v only_o say_v this_o that_o they_o who_o be_v in_o the_o place_n of_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o

from_o that_o disposition_n of_o they_o receive_v some_o evidence_n in_o themselves_o that_o they_o be_v in_o the_o number_n of_o the_o true_a believer_n of_o the_o gospel_n whereas_o they_o who_o make_v it_o a_o chief_a ingredient_n of_o their_o religion_n to_o scorn_v and_o revile_v the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n whilst_o they_o live_v and_o to_o insult_v over_o they_o when_o they_o die_v to_o vomit_v out_o their_o choler_n upon_o they_o both_o live_n and_o die_v be_v not_o likely_a for_o aught_o i_o can_v learn_v from_o the_o scripture_n to_o be_v approve_v by_o our_o lord_n

as_o we_o see_v which_o god_n have_v call_v the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n unto_o call_v upon_o they_o to_o be_v faithful_a without_o faithfulness_n a_o nominal_a minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n how_o much_o soever_o he_o boast_v and_o pridee_v himself_o in_o his_o office_n be_v but_o like_o unsavoury_a salt_n good_a for_o nothing_o but_o to_o be_v tread_v under_o foot_n with_o contempt_n both_o by_o god_n and_o man_n but_o when_o faithfulness_n be_v find_v in_o a_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n it_o make_v he_o shine_v as_o a_o star_n very_o glorious_o in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o
