A34082	The right of tythes asserted & proved, from divine institution, primitive practice, voluntary donations, and positive laws with a just vindication of that sacred maintenance from the cavils of Thomas Elwood, in his pretended answer to the friendly conference.	Comber, Thomas, 1645-1699.	1677 (1677)	Wing C5488; ESTC R39378	85,062	252

it_o necessary_a that_o this_o law_n of_o pay_v tithe_n of_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o some_o other_o shall_v stand_v in_o force_n according_a to_o the_o letter_n and_o so_o we_o must_v

must_v understand_v also_o of_o the_o christian_a people_n to_o who_o it_o be_v command_v not_o only_o to_o give_v tithe_n but_o to_o sell_v all_o 3._o all_o hieron_n in_o mal._n 3._o that_o be_v so_o much_o of_o the_o command_n as_o be_v moral_a so_o much_o as_o be_v ground_v upon_o eternal_a reason_n aught_o to_o stand_v god_n be_v eternal_o lord_n of_o the_o world_n and_o must_v always_o be_v worship_v and_o always_o have_v minister_n and_o these_o must_v always_o be_v maintain_v out_o of_o their_o master_n portion_n when_o the_o levitical_a priesthood_n fail_v there_o must_v be_v another_o and_o a_o better_a and_o therefore_o we_o may_v claim_v tithe_n as_o god_n due_a and_o as_o his_o minister_n portion_n as_o they_o be_v declare_v to_o be_v both_o before_o the_o levitical_a law_n and_o under_o it_o and_o yet_o need_v not_o claim_v they_o by_o the_o levitical_a law_n as_o it_o be_v ceremonial_a and_o now_o i_o hope_v t._n e._n must_v confess_v that_o your_o second_o position_n viz._n that_o tithe_n be_v not_o pure_o ceremonial_a be_v make_v good_a also_o since_o i_o have_v show_v they_o be_v ground_v on_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o primitive_a revelation_n rely_v on_o a_o internal_a rectitude_n in_o the_o thing_n itself_o and_o a_o eternal_a reason_n of_o it_o and_o be_v pay_v by_o those_o patriarch_n who_o live_v long_o before_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n by_o virtue_n of_o the_o precede_a declaration_n of_o the_o divine_a right_n unto_o they_o it_o be_v true_a all_o thing_n do_v by_o the_o patriarch_n be_v not_o eternal_a duty_n because_o all_o thing_n they_o do_v rely_v not_o on_o these_o principle_n which_o the_o payment_n of_o thythes_n rely_v upon_o circumcision_n be_v not_o ground_v on_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n nor_o impose_v for_o any_o eternal_a reason_n or_o internal_a rectitude_n in_o the_o thing_n bloody_a sacrifice_n be_v also_o pure_o type_n of_o christ_n to_o come_v and_o therefore_o these_o be_v pure_o ceremonial_a and_o cease_v when_o that_o law_n cease_v but_o tithe_n as_o to_o the_o main_a be_v not_o such_o and_o therefore_o remain_v in_o force_n still_o i_o may_v add_v that_o the_o prophet_n who_o be_v not_o wont_a to_o reprove_v the_o people_n for_o omission_n of_o thing_n pure_o ceremonial_a declaim_v against_o the_o jew_n for_o detain_v their_o tithe_n see_v mal._n iii._o 10._o and_o nehemiah_n call_v his_o care_n in_o this_o a_o good_a deed_n desire_v god_n to_o remember_v he_o for_o it_o nehem._n xiii_o 14._o nor_o be_v tithe_n in_o all_o the_o new_a testament_n reckon_v up_o among_o thing_n pure_o ceremonial_a or_o declare_v to_o be_v repeal_v as_o circumcision_n sacrifice_n wash_v jewish_a difference_n of_o meat_n and_o jewish_a feast_n etc._n etc._n be_v these_o be_v repeal_v by_o name_n but_o so_o be_v not_o tithe_n as_o be_v a_o thing_n that_o never_o be_v pure_o ceremonial_a i_o conclude_v that_o part_n of_o our_o substance_n be_v due_a to_o god_n by_o the_o natural_a and_o divine_a law_n and_o the_o inspire_a patriarch_n be_v teach_v by_o revelation_n that_o the_o ten_o be_v this_o part_n and_o the_o priest_n of_o god_n be_v his_o receiver_n god_n himself_o have_v approve_v also_o this_o payment_n by_o a_o renew_v claim_n and_o a_o express_a assignation_n of_o his_o right_n under_o the_o levitical_a law_n to_o the_o priest_n for_o the_o time_n be_v and_o the_o same_o god_n have_v the_o same_o right_n still_o to_o his_o part_n and_o the_o same_o occasion_n to_o use_v it_o for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o his_o minister_n at_o this_o day_n hence_o i_o suppose_v it_o will_v follow_v that_o unless_o a_o express_a repeal_n can_v be_v show_v the_o gospel_n minister_n in_o god_n name_n may_v just_o claim_v tithe_n as_o due_a to_o god_n and_o they_o still_o and_o that_o by_o a_o divine_a right_o too_o which_o i_o will_v now_o more_o full_o prove_v §_o 9_o have_v find_v sure_a foot_n for_o the_o divine_a right_n of_o tithe_n thus_o far_o we_o will_v now_o go_v on_o with_o t._n e._n to_o consider_v the_o three_o period_n of_o time_n viz._n under_o the_o gospel_n and_o first_o we_o will_v begin_v with_o what_o the_o quaker_n grant_v pag._n 284._o viz._n that_o a_o maintenance_n in_o general_a to_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v just_a reasonable_a and_o establish_v by_o a_o divine_a authority_n let_v he_o but_o stand_v to_o this_o grant_v and_o then_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n may_v claim_v a_o maintenance_n in_o general_n jure_fw-la divino_fw-la for_o that_o maintenance_n which_o be_v establish_v by_o divine_a authority_n be_v due_a jure_fw-la divino_fw-la and_o why_o then_o shall_v not_o that_o maintenance_n still_o be_v so_o due_a which_o god_n direct_v before_o the_o law_n approve_v under_o the_o law_n and_o never_o repeal_v after_o the_o law_n if_o the_o divine_a authority_n have_v establish_v a_o maintenance_n that_o suppose_v it_o be_v such_o a_o maintenance_n as_o be_v due_a before_o according_a to_o t._n e._n p._n 318._o now_o before_o the_o gospel_n time_n the_o maintenance_n pay_v to_o god_n minister_n before_o the_o law_n and_o under_o it_o be_v tithe_n the_o priesthood_n of_o melchisedec_n and_o of_o levi_n both_o be_v so_o maintain_v and_o therefore_o if_o a_o new_a maintenance_n be_v as_o t._n e._n speak_v create_v it_o may_v be_v somewhat_o else_o but_o if_o a_o maintenance_n be_v establi_v methinks_v it_o shall_v be_v tithe_n but_o to_o proceed_v the_o place_n which_o you_o produce_v out_o of_o the_o new_a testament_n for_o this_o establishment_n be_v 1_o

apostle_n speak_v not_o so_o much_o say_v he_o what_o the_o maintenance_n be_v as_o who_o they_o be_v from_o who_o it_o be_v to_o be_v receive_v viz._n such_o as_o receive_v their_o ministry_n such_o as_o believe_v they_o to_o be_v true_a minister_n such_o as_o be_v teach_v by_o they_o this_o be_v a_o notorious_a falsehood_n for_o in_o the_o former_a place_n viz._n 1_o cor._n ix_o s._n paul_n be_v
