be_v rebellion_n against_o our_o maker_n for_o the_o scripture_n command_v we_o not_o to_o judge_v one_o another_o in_o matter_n of_o conscience_n towards_o god_n but_o for_o the_o sin_n against_o

apostle_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o if_o you_o will_v have_v it_o so_o than_o we_o must_v exact_o see_v what_o order_n they_o have_v in_o their_o commission_n that_o we_o may_v know_v they_o from_o hireling_n we_o find_v in_o the_o commission_n that_o they_o be_v to_o go_v and_o preach_v without_o money_n or_o scrip_n or_o shoe_n on_o their_o foot_n but_o to_o be_v shod_v with_o sandal_n

of_o scripture_n must_v be_v lay_v aside_o only_a talk_n of_o it_o and_o dispute_v of_o it_o a_o little_a and_o pick_v out_o of_o it_o a_o few_o place_n to_o preach_v out_o off_o and_o to_o write_v to_o get_v some_o money_n to_o uphold_v their_o pride_n and_o honour_n in_o this_o world_n to_o please_v the_o old_a man_n in_o the_o flesh_n sure_o if_o john_n the_o baptist_n shall_v come_v forth_o
